After reading this I realize that as a mother I had absolutely no real informed consent. Nothing of this was shared by any doctor we used. A 12-second “basically they are safe and effective and significant side effects are extremely rare” is all I ever heard.

Pre-Covid, my GP tried to get me to take a flu shot. I asked him how much it reduced my chances of dying. He said he couldn't tell me that, but the flu shot basically had no more reported adverse events than a placebo. I said no thanks. Later I find out the flu shot isn't tested against a real placebo; the "placebo" is another vaccine. It is incredible how bad the system is.

I was still under the illusion that I would be permitted to work in nursing homes in 2020, so I said, "what the heck, I'll take the flu shot." I thought of it as worthless (strain-based), but not risky.

Later I found out that the series of flu shot I took increased the risks for COVID (I can't remember where I read it, didn't make a note of it, what's done is done). Not that I had any more horrid COVID experience than anyone else (10 days down), but now I'm thinking of vaccines like antidepressants.

Psych drugs fiddle neurotransmitters that we really have absolutely very little understanding of their cascades and interactions with the entire body.

Vaccines fiddle immunity - again, that we have all kinds of language to describe, but our ignorance surpasses our knowledge. No, thank you.

And Doc - thank you!

That is true for all vaccines. They compare against a previous version or use a cocktail of all the toxic ingredients minus the alleged attenuated virus. It's all a con.

This was the same thing I was told and permitted my first child to have them He was the guinea pig. He nearly died...'Pediatric 'care' messed up his entire life. He got the worst head start of my four children. This was what got me into the study of nutrition and health, because I learned how little doctors knew about health. It was set up this way by J..D. Rockefeller who changed the curricula in med schools over 110 years ago. It eliminated any other modality, except the promotion of his petroleum based drugs. His father was actually a 'snake oil salesman', too. He promoted the AMA and got doctors to join by promising them higher incomes and prestige...nothing about better health for their patients.

My great-great grandfather was a doctor (however qualified back then) and "snake-oil" salesman.

I wish I had his remedies today. Most of them were simples. Sure, there may have been harm or addiction in his laudanum formulas - but then - what did people do for pain back then?

I wrote about J.D. Rockefeller who took over the AMA and this is the organization today. It cares nothing about the people...it is totally dictatorial and won't permit doctors to use anything, except its own patented nostrums.

There were doctors who used to truly care about their patients, too. They were not the ones who joined the AMA for the money or the prestige. They had a calling to serve. J.D.s father was a low class scoundrel who abandoned his family and married another woman. He was someone who was considered a 'snake oil' salesman.

Same here. All of my 3 adult children are sick. I never heard the term anti-vaxer until 2021, but because I have been severely hurt by the medical system in the past, I was intrigued. Now all the questions about why the lives of my children have been destroyed are answered.
