An investigation of the misinformation and lies surrounding the Covid-19 virus and vaccination programme

Introduction

The purpose of this investigation is to uncover the lies we are being told about Covid-19 and the safety and efficacy of the vaccines used to combat it. We focus on facts you can verify for yourself and by comparing these to government propaganda aim to arrive at the truth about the so-called pandemic. This largely manufactured and wholly avoidable crisis has reduced otherwise rational and intelligent human beings to terrified zombies, cowering in cellars in fear of a deadly plague which is considerably less dangerous than the seasonal flu epidemics we have lived with for hundreds of years.

What has this to do with Occult Science? As we have said in our first article on this subject, everything and nothing. Nothing, because neither epidemiology, virology or politics come within the scope of occultism per se, but fear, freedom, hatred and health most certainly do. Nothing deprives us of our God-given freedom of thought so effectively or readily as fear. Nothing retards our spiritual progress like hatred of those who do not think as we do, or act as we do. The loss of liberty is no light matter. It must also be obvious that good health is important if we are to get the most from life and all it has to teach us. Freedom is the first and most precious of God's gifts to man. Those who would deprive us of our liberty are the enemies of God, no matter what excuses are used to justify the theft. Freedoms once removed are rarely reinstated, and if you deprive a person of their freedom in small matters it becomes easier to deprive them of their freedom in large matters, as the Jews discovered to their cost in Nazi Germany.

Doctor knows best

We like to think our readers share our commitment to open-minded enquiry and rigorous examination of anything before believing it to be true. Occult Science, above all else, is the search for truth and the dispelling of illusions. Sadly, few search for truth and even fewer wish to dispel illusions—especially their own. Why is this? Lack of opportunity is one reason, lack of interest is another. But the main reason is the unwillingness of people to think for and by themselves. It is so much easier to believe something because everyone else believes it, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, true or false. It is so much easier to believe what our family, friends and community believe. It is certainly less confrontational. Similarly, it is easy to believe what those in positions of power and authority tell us because we have been taught they know so much more than us. The classic example of this is the phrase 'trust me—I'm a doctor.' But some of us know from bitter experience that doctors are not always to be trusted, nor do they always know best what is good for us. As we pointed out in our article on health, much of modern medicine is a pseudoscience at best and dangerous quackery at worst.

If you think we exaggerate, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) reported in 2001 that 250,000 people die every year in the USA from iatrogenic disease. Iatrogenic means "induced by a physician," that is disease caused by medicines and/or medical treatments. Some US Government sources put the number of deaths at nearly 900,000 per year. The figures for the UK are much harder to come by as freedom of information requests are often met with an impenetrable wall of obfuscation, deflection and delay. However, estimates put the number of 'adverse medical events' in the UK—an anodyne euphemism that includes death—at between 20,000 to 30,000 per year. Here are some more facts about iatrogenic disease which come from the NHS itself—the 'world-class' health service we have been urged to clap for. In 2014/15 the NHS paid out around £1.4 billion in compensation to patients. In February 2018, researchers from the Universities of York, Manchester and Sheffield reported that an estimated 712 deaths result from adverse drug reactions (ADRs) each year. They went on to say that ADRs could be a contributory factor in more than 20,000 deaths a year. A study on patient safety published by the WHO (World Health Organization) in 2019 found that in high-income countries, one in every 10 patients is harmed while receiving hospital care. It further found that 134 million 'adverse events' occur in hospitals in low- and middle-income countries, resulting in 2.6 million avoidable deaths every year. The study concluded that globally, as many as 4 out of 10 patients are harmed in primary and outpatient health care.

We could cite many more reports and studies which confirm in chilling detail that doctors do not always know best and that modern medicine does as much harm as good. This applies to vaccination too, as we shall see later on. Meanwhile, it is important to add that doctors, politicians and scientists often have ulterior motives for wanting us to believe and trust them. This is the purpose of this article; to discover the truth about disease and vaccination in general and the Covid-19 vaccines in particular. For those who know no Latin the title of our article is a pastiche of a phrase popularly attributed to Julius Caesar: veni, vidi, vinci, meaning "I came; I saw; I conquered." We made up the word vaxi which is not Latin to inject a little humour into an otherwise very serious and disturbing subject: the mass vaccination of millions of people on a hitherto unprecedented scale against a virus that affects less than 5% of the population and from which 99% of those who do contract it fully recover. These are facts you can check with data published by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in the USA and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) in the UK.

Suffer little children . . .

There are other facts the mainstream media and governments would rather you didn't know about Covid-19, some of which we have discussed in our previous article on the virus—The War on Death. In at least 80% of cases, the virus produces either no symptoms or a mild cold-like illness. The overall infection fatality rate for all ages (IFR) for Covid-19 is 0.15%-0.2%. This is barely any different to the IFR for seasonal flu which is around 0.1%-0.2%. The risks for children are so low as to be virtually non-existent, yet governments around the world supported by the constant propaganda broadcast by the mainstream media are hell-bent on vaccinating them. Indeed, as we update this article on 4 September 2021, the Government of Australia has started vaccinating children. In the USA, children as young as five are taking part in vaccine trials. According to ONS the number of children under the age of 17 who have died of the virus in the UK is 11. Among those aged 1 to 9 years, there has been one—we repeat—one death. Given its much larger population the numbers in the USA are understandably higher. There, the CDC report that 154 children under the age of 14 have died of, or with the virus, while just 38 of one to four-year-olds have died. The official government data does not show how many of these children had serious underlying health conditions, such as chronic obesity, but it is fair to say—based on figures from the CDC—that it may be as much as 20%. If this is replicated in the UK and we see no reason why it should not be, the actual child mortality rate in both countries may be much lower than the official figures. Despite this, we have every reason to believe that the UK Government will shortly approve the vaccination of the Nation's three million children. Five months after we wrote these words vaccination of five to eleven-year-old children was approved by the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

This, despite that fact that children have a greater chance of being struck by lightning than dying of Covid-19, whilst adults are more likely to die in a car accident. Have these facts been reported by the mainstream media to reassure the public and diffuse the relentless fear-mongering? The answer is no. Why is a question we will come to later in this investigation. One wag has calculated that anyone under 50 with no serious underlying health conditions who is reasonably fit and not overweight stands more chance of dying from falling off a ladder than the virus. Should we ban ladders? You may smile at our attempt to introduce a little humour into what is a very dark narrative, but the fear instilled by the mainstream media and governments is no laughing matter. More people are now dying from undiagnosed and untreated illnesses than ever before. Many more refuse to seek medical care because they are afraid to leave their homes—thanks to the lies of the Government. Such isolation is much more common than you may realize. We ourselves know several people who have not set foot outside their homes since March 2020! The cartoon by Patrick Blower shown below first published in the Daily Telegraph on 6 July 2021 says more about this unreported phenomenon than any words possibly could. Many other people have not received proper medical care because of the lockdowns and restrictions. Yet others have died of untreated cancers, heart disease and other serious medical conditions; it is impossible to say how many, but it runs into many tens of thousands in this country alone.

Deaths from the vaccine

Then there are the vaccine deaths. According to the Government's Yellow Card scheme which exists to report adverse drug events (ADEs), nearly 1,500 people have now died within 28 days of receiving one of the Covid-19 vaccines and more than 276,000 have suffered adverse reactions including blindness, paralysis, strokes, haemorrhages, seizures, pulmonary embolisms, spontaneous abortions and cardiac arrests. On 13 June 2021, the Daily Mail reported that "studies shows 43% of people who have died after catching the new strain had both vaccinations, with the majority (60%) having received at least one dose." This, coming from one the most consistent and vocal supporters of the official Government narrative about the 'safety' of the vaccines is a shocking admission. The situation in the United States is worse. According to the US Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), the American equivalent of our Yellow Card scheme, more than 460,000 adverse events and nearly 11,000 deaths were notified from 14 December 2020 to 9 July 2021.

Dr Mike Yeadon, whose views on the Covid-19 vaccines we will share with you in the next part of this investigation, had this to say about the VAERS data quoted above. "I'm a father and grandfather. Young people are not susceptible to Covid-19. They're not at risk. It's a crazy thing then to vaccinate them with something that is actually 50 times more likely to kill them than the virus itself. If you look from about January of this year and compare month by month to any previous year, the number of deaths is just enormous. It's between 50 and 100 times higher. It's not my data; it's the U.S. public data." This is just what we said in this second part of our investigation, 'suffer little children...' a quotation from the Bible some of you may be familiar with. The full verse runs: "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew: 19:14).

In 2009 a rapid response article published in the British Journal of Medicine (BMJ) reported officials relying "on a system [Yellow Card scheme] that reports fewer than 1 per cent of adverse effects in the case of young children's serious reactions to a seasonal flu vaccine." Fewer than one per cent! If this level of under-reporting remains unchanged today, and we have no reason to doubt it, the 300,000 ADEs reported via the Yellow Card scheme up to 23 June this year for all Covid-19 vaccines is likely to be a gross underestimation. From this it follows that the true number of deaths from the vaccines may well be many thousands. Indeed, it is not impossible that as many people are dying, or will die from the vaccines as have died of the virus itself. Particularly if we take into account that our own Government have been forced to concede on several occasions that the number of deaths attributed to Covid-19 may have been exaggerated due to 'statistical anomalies,' and that little if any distinction has ever been made between those dying with the virus and those of it.

Crying in the wilderness

It is in the light of these facts that we now turn to a scientist who is one of the very few voices brave enough to speak out against the lying propaganda being pumped out by governments and the mainstream media around the world. That man is Dr Mike Yeadon. He is no vaccine sceptic. He has a degree in biochemistry and toxicology and a research-based PhD in respiratory pharmacology. He has spent over 30 years leading new medicines research in some of the world's largest drug companies, leaving pharmaceutical giant, Pfizer in 2011 as Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer responsible for Allergy and Respiratory research. Later that year Dr Yeadon founded his own biotech company, Ziarco, which was sold to the world's biggest drug company, Novartis, in 2017.

We say again, Dr Yeadon is no vaccine sceptic. Neither, unlike his detractors and critics, has he anything to gain by speaking out against the use of an experimental medical treatment which does not complete its trials until 2023. On the contrary, he has been vilified off and online by every mainstream media outlet in this country and abroad. His Wikipedia entry has long since been removed, as have his social media accounts. A Google search for his name returns nothing but negative results for several pages. By his own admission, he neither sought nor expected the infamy that is now associated with him. As long ago as September 2020, he said:

"When the first (and I think, only) wave of Covid-19 hit the UK, I was with almost everyone else in being very afraid. I'm 60 and in reasonable health, but on learning that I had about a one per cent additional risk of perishing if I caught the virus, I discovered I was far from ready to go. So, I wasn't surprised or angry when the first lockdown arrived. However, before the first three-week period was over, I'd begun to develop an understanding of what was happening. We now know that lockdown made no difference at all to the spread of the virus. We can tell this because the interval between catching the virus and, in those who don't make it, their death is longer than the interval between lockdown and peak daily deaths. There isn't any controversy about this fact, easily demonstrated, but I'm aware some people like to pretend it was lockdown that turned the pandemic, perhaps to justify the extraordinary price we have all paid to do it."

As more and more was learned about the virus, Dr Yeadon's attitude changed, becoming ever more sceptical of the official narrative, culminating in the views he expressed in May this year, in an article published in the online blog—TCW Defending Freedom. We quote: "Truth is our most powerful tool. And that truth is that we're being lied to. The truth also, however hard it is to believe it, is that there is unequivocal and clear evidence of planning and co-ordination. Not to face this fact is to have your head in the sand. Where it's leading is easy to discern, once people are willing to lift their internal censoring and look objectively at the evidence.

"Looking around us now, we see that the prevalence of the virus in the community is effectively zero. Note that the authorities have never conceded and determined the operational false positive rate of PCR mass testing. This was true for months as indicated by the positive rate in lateral flow tests. No variant of the virus differs by more than 0.3 per cent from the original [genetic] sequence, and numerous academic immunologists have stated strongly that there is no possibility that booster/top-up/variant vaccines are required. Yet we get daily 'fear porn' on this topic. The European Parliament just voted through the basic outlines of a vaccine passport system. Mask regulations continue in force and many psychologists believe some people are so traumatised that they will continue to wear them indefinitely, even though they are useless. The economy and currency may already be damaged beyond repair. Yet there's another six weeks minimum until the last restrictions are scheduled to be lifted."

Many of these restrictions, such as the mandatory wearing of face nappies and antisocial distancing, have now been lifted but the Government have made it quite clear—under pressure from SAGE and other lobbyists—that some or all of them may be re-introduced at any time. Dr Yeadon continues: "Almost no one is dying 'with' Covid-19 now, and the attribution methodology overestimates this anyway." This is just what we said earlier when we gave you a few vaccine facts. Despite this, Dr Yeadon goes on to tell us that "hospitals and primary health care remain far less accessible than they should be, inevitably resulting in causing or storing up avoidable non-Covid-19 deaths, to say nothing of the suffering and misery of the millions awaiting treatments for painful and worrying illnesses." Again we covered this earlier when we mentioned the unnecessary deaths the lockdowns and other restrictions have caused. Dr Yeadon adds "Most terrifyingly, it appears we will soon be required to possess VaxPass apps if we wish to continue to access our lives."

This has already been implemented in several European countries including Germany, France, Italy and Estonia, with more to follow in the wake of the launch of the 'EU Digital Covid Certificate.' How long before the UK follows suit? We do not know, but we are not holding our breath for the same reason Dr Yeadon is not holding his, for, as he says, "This system can run effectively only if everyone is vaccinated. This is a monstrous concept, because it is known that all four vaccines in use in Europe contain a fatal design flaw: they cause the spike protein to be expressed wherever the vaccine is taken up. In some people, especially those so young that they're at no measurable risk of death if infected by the virus, vaccination results in their deaths from thromboembolic events. Permitting the inexpert population to walk into this trap is unconscionable: there will be thousands of further vaccine-induced deaths of young people." Sadly, we think he may well be right as we shall learn in the next part of this investigation.

Why are they doing this?

Why are they doing this is a question we have asked ourselves many times during the past sixteen months, and continue to ask, though the answers are becoming increasingly obvious. Let us see what Dr Yeadon says. In the article published by TCW Defending Freedom from which we have quoted earlier, he writes: "I invite thoughtful people to ask that difficult question: 'Why are they doing this?' It is my deduction and conclusion that the only motivation that fits all the observations is the intention to 'herd' every citizen into a VaxPass system. This is a completely novel system. Never before have all individuals been represented in a single, interoperable database as a unique digital ID, accompanied by an editable health-related field. Whoever controls that database, and the algorithms which govern what it permits and denies, has literally totalitarian control of the entire population. There is no personal threshold crossing or transaction which doesn't fall to those operating that system.

"I have found it impossible to come up with a benign interpretation of the events. No one works as carefully and for so long as evidently has been done, across the world, only suddenly to stop. Why? I've asked hundreds of people and not a single one has (a) pointed out where my logic fails or (b) come up with a benign interpretation. My own conviction is that the purpose is, at minimum, to establish a system of totalitarian control which will mean the extinguishing of liberal democracy. It almost doesn't matter what the next steps might be, but they could, for example, have been sold to numerous people as the only solution to 'anthropogenic global warming' (AGW): the amount of resources we'll be permitted to produce and consume will be set by some unseen controllers. It is possible they could go a step further than this, and see reducing population or depopulation as another route to solving the perceived problem of AGW."

Much as we might wish the good doctor were wrong, we cannot find any flaws in his arguments. In a series of posts to The Daily Sceptic blog made on 6 June this year, Dr Yeadon commented: "My expectation is that eventually everyone will be coerced to accept first generation vaccines. Once a digital ID is introduced and Access / transaction control governed by having a valid VaxPass, the unvaccinated will almost be subject to house arrest since there'll be almost nothing they can do. I saw an official document from the French government about emergency 'Ring vaccination.' Any 'case' is targeted by a medical and police team ring vaccinating everyone within a given radius of the 'case.' Those refusing vaccination are told not to leave their homes. If this was insufficient then, for the greater good, refusers were to be taken into protective custody. In an Italian government document, the argument was made that refusers were irrational and could be sectioned under their mental health act. I don't see any way to prevent this kind of dystopian end result if VaxPass goes live." Neither do we. What he predicted has already come to pass in the German town of Velbert, near Dortmund. There, in late June, the occupants of an entire apartment block were imprisoned in their own homes for two days under armed guard because just one person tested positive for Covid-19. Bear in mind that the PCR test has been widely criticised for producing false positives as Bombast and Flitterflop discussed in their investigation of the pandemic. Bear in mind too that a positive result does not mean a person has Covid-19 or is infectious.

But it gets worse. On 9 July 2021, Dr David E. Martin, who heads M-CAM International, a US company which monitors innovations relevant to financial interests, took part in a video conference organised by the German Corona Investigative Committee headed by Reiner Fuellmich, a senior German-American lawyer specialising in exposing corporate swindles. Some of you may have heard of this committee under its German name—Stiftung Corona Ausschuss. It has been taking testimony from scientists and other experts since July last year and presenting its findings to an international audience in German and English via video conferencing. Dr Martin submitted a devastating dossier containing a 20-year trail of patent applications concerning the virus responsible for Covid-19 which proves beyond any doubt that it is not novel, did not jump from animals to humans and was not manufactured in a laboratory in Wuhan. Rather, over 4,000 patents dating back to 1999 show that a natural coronavirus, harmless to humans, was subjected to numerous laboratory modifications which 'weaponised' it to the point where it could be heavily marketed, resulting in the tests and vaccines we are now familiar with that have proved so lucrative for drug companies around the world, not to mention certain politicians, scientists and businessmen.

Dr Martin began by telling Reiner Fuellmich "somebody knew something in 2015 and 2016 which gave rise to my favourite quote of this entire pandemic." He was referring to a statement made by British scientist Dr Peter Daszak, head of the EcoHealth Alliance, which has received tens of millions of US dollars for investigating coronaviruses in 2015, and reported in the US National Academies Press on February 12, 2016, in which he declared: "We need to increase public understanding of the need for medical counter-measures such as a pan-coronavirus vaccine. A key driver is the media, and the economics will follow the hype. We need to use that hype to our advantage, to get to the real issues. Investors will respond if they see profit at the end of the process." Remember—this was stated publicly five years before the first lockdown in March 2020.

Dr Martin went on to say: "We took the actual genetic sequences that were reportedly novel, and reviewed those against the patent records available as of the spring of 2020. What we found are over 120 patented pieces of evidence to suggest that the declaration of a novel coronavirus was entirely a fallacy." He went on to show that as early as January 2000, Pfizer filed for a patent on a genetic sequence giving rise to a coronavirus spike protein, to be used in a vaccine against a canine disease. If this isn't a sufficiently devastating revelation, the patent record shows that in 1999 Anthony Fauci, head of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID), found the 'malleability' of the coronavirus made it a potential candidate for vaccines against HIV. Dr Martin further showed that Fauci funded research to specifically create 'an infectious replication defective coronavirus.' This chilling phrase comes directly from the patent application filed on 19 April 2002 and issued as US patent 7279327—19 years ago! Dr Martin adds: "this clearly lays out in very specific gene sequencing the fact that we know that the S1 spike protein, and other elements of what we have come to know as this scourge pathogen, was not only engineered but could be synthetically modified in the laboratory, using nothing more than gene sequencing technologies taking computer code, and turning it into a pathogen."

The Committee learned that in April 2003 the CDC filed a patent application for the entire SARS gene sequence, and for a series of derivative patents covering the means of detection, including the PCR test. The US Patent Office twice rejected the application on the grounds that it was already recorded in the public domain, but the CDC started a process to override the rejection. After repeated applications, and paying an appeal fine, they got the patent approved in 2007. They also paid an additional fee to keep the application private. In short, they bribed the US Patent Office. It gets even worse. Just three days after filing the application, Sequoia Pharmaceuticals, a private venture-capital funded company founded in 2002, filed a patent application on antiviral agents, treatment and control of infections by coronavirus. This was approved, and published, before the CDC patent was allowed. Dr Martin adds: "So the degree to which the information could have been known by any means other than insider information between those parties is zero. It is not physically possible for you to patent a thing that treats a thing that had not been published, because CDC had paid to keep it secret. This is the definition of criminal conspiracy, racketeering and collusion. This is not theory. This is evidence."

Since this article was published Dr Martin's groundbreaking presentation to the international Corona Investigative Committee has disappeared from the Internet; another victim of the relentless censorship of the truth about Covid-19. Fortunately, Dr Martin has published all his findings in a PDF which you can download directly from our website (see Further reading list at the end of the sidebar). Although it is over 200 pages long we assure you it is well worth reading. The painting below by Bob Moran which, understandably, no mainstream newspaper has or would ever publish, is a powerful reminder of the importance of resisting the forces of evil which would deprive us of all we hold dear. This talented and brave cartoonist does not mince his words either. On his Twitter feed on 10th July 2021, he wrote: "People who wear masks are active participants in a disgusting, deceitful charade that's now been going on for sixteen months and which is on course to totally destroy all that gives life meaning. People who show their faces are the ones who care for humanity and its future." So we ask again: why are they doing this? We cannot think of any good reasons—can you?

Conclusion

This has not been an easy article to write. Nor does it contain much, if any humour for the simple reason that there is nothing remotely funny about the facts we have put before you. Facts, we repeat, anyone may verify for themselves by consulting the same sources we have used to research and write this article. We emphasise that these are all official, government sources. The Office for National Statistics (ONS), Public Health England (PHE) and the NHS in the UK and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in the USA, as well as the World Health Organization (WHO). This begs the obvious question: if these facts are freely available to all why has the mainstream media consistently ignored them? Why, too, does it continue to broadcast lies about the vaccines which are completely at variance with these facts? The most glaring and malicious of these lies is that the vaccines are completely safe for children. At the time we went to press seven children had died in the USA following vaccination and nearly 300 had suffered serious adverse events which include permanent disability, heart disease, Bell's Palsy and Guillain-Barre syndrome, a very nasty disorder indeed. Look it up if you don't know what it is and ask yourself whether it's something you would like to give to a child so they can go abroad on holiday or attend school.

We repeat: why do governments and the mainstream media ignore these facts and continue to peddle misinformation, half-truths and downright lies? As we said earlier, we cannot think of any good reasons. We refer interested readers to our article on scientific materialism—written over five years ago—for more answers to this vital question. Further answers can be found in Bombast and Flitterflop's investigation of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic published earlier this year. They even managed to inject some humour into what is a very humourless subject, politicians excepted of course; the latter are always good for a laugh. Indeed, we would say humour is essential when dealing with politics and politicians. So—despite our previous remarks—we would like to end this investigation on a humorous note, if for no other reason than that there is no humour in hell, but plenty of kindly laughter in Heaven. According to several memes circulating via social media the American Amish community haven't been affected by the virus because they don't have television or the Internet. Of course, the so-called 'fact-checkers' have since leaped upon this story with all the rabid enthusiasm of a Spanish inquisitor in pursuit of heretics and 'proved' to their complete satisfaction that it's not true, thereby completely missing the point. The point being that without the influence of the mass media it is very unlikely the pandemic would have got started, never mind persisted for nearly eighteen months.

To conclude: Veni, vidi, vaxi? That is a decision only YOU can make. But we hope that the information we have put before will allow you to make an informed choice based upon facts, not fiction, lies and government propaganda. It may surprise you to learn that a politician as slippery as Ronald Reagan once said: "The nine most terrifying words in the English language are 'I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.' If even an actor who became a president was distrustful of the intentions of governments, shouldn't you be? We leave you with another of Bob Moran's wonderfully evocative cartoons which sums up all we have tried to convey in this investigation. You can find more information about the subjects we have discussed in the further reading list in the sidebar.

Vaccines: facts versus fiction

It wasn't long ago when infections plagued the Western world. Smallpox, scarlet fever, measles, typhoid, diphtheria, whooping cough, and other diseases were once considered a tragic part of life. Starting in the mid-1800s, there was a steady drop in the deaths from all these infectious diseases, decreasing by the mid-1900s to very low levels. The elimination of these diseases owes less to vaccination and rather more to dramatic improvements in sanitation, hygiene and nutrition.

Vaccination as we know it today owes its origins to a process called variolation first practised in the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of the 17th century. This involved taking a small amount of material from a human smallpox lesion and scratching it into the skin of another person. Ideally, the recipient would suffer a mild attack of smallpox and then become immune to it. Unfortunately, the procedure spread the disease into surrounding communities, and two or three people died out of every hundred inoculated. As a result, it fell into general disrepute in Europe after 1728.

It was not until the end of the 18th century that an English physician, Edward Jenner, developed the practice of using raw pus from cows infected with cowpox to inoculate people against smallpox. The next method he developed was to take pox pustular lymph from the pock of an inoculated human and rub it into the arm of the next human recipient. This remained the prevailing method of vaccination until the development of modern smallpox vaccines in the 20th century.

In Jenner's times the unhygienic conditions which prevailed throughout all classes of society, but especially among the poor, provided a perfect breeding ground for diseases like cholera, dysentery, typhoid, tuberculosis, smallpox, measles, diphtheria and whooping cough. Periodic epidemics and pandemics swept across the globe killing millions. While the poor were the worst affected, no class was spared. Even those who escaped death from disease or disability at an early age often only lived into their thirties or forties.

Jenner and the medical community ignored abundant evidence that the vaccine was ineffective and caused harm. In the 1844 smallpox epidemic, about one-third of those who had been vaccinated contracted a mild form of smallpox, and nearly two-thirds a severe form, and roughly 8% of those vaccinated died. Then, as now, deaths resulting from vaccination often went unreported because of the almost universal allegiance of doctors to the practice and the cult of orthodoxy.

Nonetheless, once it became clear that vaccination was not the panacea which its proponents claimed, the number of people refusing to be vaccinated increased and anti-vaccine movements gained momentum. Governments around the world responded by passing laws to enforce immunization. In 1853 vaccination was made compulsory in England. This was followed by stricter laws in 1867 which imposed fines, seizure of personal property and imprisonment. In one case, a father was imprisoned for refusing to have a second child vaccinated after vaccination had killed the first.

How up-to-date this sounds! Is history about to repeat itself? We would not like to say, but the signs are not good, as we saw in our article at left. During the 1871-72 pandemic, the vaccinated often contracted severe smallpox more rapidly than the non-vaccinated. The medical journal The Lancet, founded in 1823 and still published today, reported that 17% of vaccinated smallpox patients in London hospitals died. Official figures from Germany show that between 1870 and 1885 one million vaccinated persons died from smallpox.

Compulsory smallpox vaccination in England only ended in 1948. By then nearly two-thirds of children were not vaccinated, yet smallpox mortality had fallen to almost nil. An estimated 200 to 300 deaths were recorded in 1948 as the result of smallpox vaccination, but only one death from smallpox itself. In the USA, vaccination continued until 1963, resulting in an estimated 5000 unnecessary vaccine-related hospitalizations.

Smallpox vaccination was eventually discontinued, but the fact that the practice was unnecessary and had caused needless suffering and death over many years was never recognized or acknowledged, and it is still held up today as an exemplary vaccine to promote faith in vaccination and to discourage dissent among doctors.

Unfortunately, the entrenched belief among most medical practitioners that vaccines and other medical advances were responsible for the decline of smallpox and other infectious diseases has dictated how they are still treated today. Instead of an emphasis on hygiene, nutrition, clean air and pure, untreated water, the emphasis is always on antibiotics, vaccinations, and other medical procedures.

As long ago as 1911, an American school superintendent stated: "Sunshine, fresh air, wholesome nutrition, exercise, rest and the hygienic mode of living are far more effectual than all the subsequent medication in existence." Over one hundred years later doctors around the world routinely inject children with an ever-increasing cocktail of vaccines from as early as 8 weeks of age. In the UK, by the time a child celebrates their twelfth birthday they will have received a minimum of 16 vaccines. In the 1950's just four were given. In the USA, the total number of vaccines given to children is over thirty.

These are truly shocking statistics rarely discussed and almost never challenged. Those who do challenge them are routinely vilified, and in many cases have their reputations trashed and their livelihoods destroyed. At the same time almost no resources are expended in providing unpolluted water, air and pesticide-free food and drink. Instead, vaccination continues as the sole intervention for many infectious diseases despite the fact that many medical practitioners have stated that there is no justification for the mass vaccination of children against diseases such as measles and whooping cough (pertussis).

In 1977 Dr Gordon Stewart argued that the incidence of brain damage after receiving the whooping cough vaccine was higher than from the disease itself. There have been numerous reports of children dying shortly after receiving the whooping cough vaccine, but most medical experts simply ignored them and insisted that the vaccine only rarely led to neurological problems. As we saw earlier and is especially true of the Covid-19 vaccines, there is a strong medical bias against admitting that any heavily promoted medical procedure is harmful.

In 1957 when national vaccination to combat whooping cough was introduced in the UK the number of whooping cough hospitalisations and deaths were almost zero. A 2012 study found that, contrary to the prevailing medical belief, the disease did not strike the unvaccinated more than the vaccinated. The highest incidence of disease was in 8 to 12-year-olds who had previously been fully vaccinated. Protection after natural infection can last for 30 years, which would yield far better herd immunity than vaccine-type immunity, which is unpredictable, short-lived and incomplete. This is exactly what thinking scientists like Dr Mike Yeadon are saying now about coronavirus.

The history of another popular vaccine—that was used against measles—is no different. The first measles vaccine was introduced in the USA in 1963 but provided no protection. Recipients who later came into contact with the disease contracted a much more serious form of it. A 1967 study showed that the vaccine could cause pneumonia and encephalopathy, because it wrongly programmed the immune system, much as the Covid-19 vaccines are said to do. Unsurprisingly, this first attempt to 'beat measles' was quickly abandoned.

There is little doubt in our minds that the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) combined vaccine first introduced in 1988 has caused autism and autoimmune diseases on a massive scale in children. The number of children diagnosed with autism in the USA in the 1970s was about one in every 2,000. Now the CDC reports it is 1 in 150, an increase of over 1000%! It is estimated that around 700,000 people have autism in the UK today. In 1984, four years before the introduction of the MMR vaccine, it was less than 1000, an increase of 700%—a rise comparable to that seen in the USA. Coincidence? You decide!

It was a British doctor, Andrew Wakefield who, in 1998, first suggested that there might be a link between the MMR vaccine and autism in children. He was rewarded for his efforts by having his research universally repudiated, being struck off the medical register and his career as a GP abruptly terminated.

It was only in 2021—23 years after Dr Wakefield's research was published in The Lancet—that a Senior Scientist on Vaccine-Autism working for the CDC in the USA, Dr William Thompson, admitted that he and his colleagues deliberately withheld statistically significant information in their 2004 article on the links between the MMR vaccine and autism published in the US Journal of Paediatrics. We quote: "All the authors and I met and decided sometime between August and September 2002 not to report any adverse effects for the paper. Sometime soon after the meeting, where we decided to exclude reporting any such effects, the co-authors scheduled a meeting to destroy documents related to the study."

So much for scientific rigour and honesty...Governments worldwide have since paid compensation for children damaged by the MMR vaccine, including those with autism. In the USA, more than $4 billion has been paid out to roughly 6,000 individuals. Unsurprisingly, no safety study has ever been conducted for the MMR vaccine looking for neurological and autoimmune outcomes, nor, given what happened to Andrew Wakefield, is it ever likely to be.

The reason most commonly given in support of mass vaccination is the need to protect the healthy and those most at risk. Huge amounts of money are spent in fruitless attempts to discover why so many vaccinated people remain susceptible to infection. The answer lies in the nature and functions of the immune system which are poorly understood and have never been studied from a spiritual point of view.

Scientists have long relied on antibody production as a measure of vaccine efficacy and still do. This ignores the little-known fact that any antibody, even a vaccine-induced one, can render a person more vulnerable to disease. Even the most enthusiastic proponents of vaccination do not deny that there is a delicate balance between protective immunity and the unintentional induction of enhanced susceptibility, not only to the disease being vaccinated for, but other diseases too.

We therefore get the amazing paradox of vaccines given for protection making us more susceptible to disease! One enlightened doctor recently confessed that "the immune system is still very much a black box of impenetrable complexity." We should say that was something of an understatement! Occult Science—in contrast to its materialistic and mechanistic bedfellow—knows that the immune system is the sum total of the collective intelligence we refer to as the lower mind or self.

Not only is it a good deal cleverer than any scientist, it is also more than capable of outwitting the inferior intelligence of viruses. But not when it is interfered with and constantly undermined by the administration of vaccines to its host—the human body. Then it has to fight on two fronts; against the invading disease organism and the agents of medical intervention. It's a bit like expecting a blind boxer to win a fight with both hands tied behind his back.

You may be surprised to learn that recent studies show that children are less well protected today than they were when measles circulated widely and infected nearly every child by the age of 15. The children of vaccinated mothers are nearly three times more likely to contract measles than those of mothers who have natural immunity through prior infection. These results confirm that people who catch infectious diseases naturally and recover enjoy solid, lifelong immunity resulting in them being true contributors to herd immunity.

Vaccinated people, on the other hand, will eventually jeopardize herd immunity as a result of primary and secondary vaccine failure, as their vaccine-induced immunity wears off. US physician Gregory Poland, an ardent vaccine proponent, has admitted that measles cannot be eradicated with the current vaccine and has called for the development of new vaccines to overcome 'aberrant immune responses,' presumably a scientific euphemism for the lower mind doing its job properly! No doubt the good doctor would like to immobilize our hypothetical boxer entirely. Fortunately for humanity, Nature has other ideas.

Which leads us to the conclusion of this afterword and the subject of natural remedies against infectious diseases. While the vast majority of scientists advocate injecting diseased animal matter, pathogens and toxins into healthy people to supposedly boost their immunity, there have always been other simpler, cheaper and more benign means of combating diseases, many of which are remarkably successful but have never attained mainstream legitimacy.

Vitamin A supplements have been used to reduce child mortality in developing countries. Administering massive doses to patients hospitalised with measles has been found to reduce the overall risk of death by 60% and the risk among infants by 90%. It is well documented in the medical literature that the measles vaccine depletes vitamin A.

Doctors have successfully used vitamin C in cases of measles, tuberculosis, scarlet fever, poliomyelitis, whooping cough, coronary artery disease, cancer, life-threatening sepsis, encephalitis, pneumonia, and other conditions. Cinnamon is a common spice with anti-infective properties. It is an antioxidant containing vitamins A and C, and minerals like zinc, potassium, magnesium and manganese which has been successfully used to treat cholera, diphtheria, influenza and typhoid.

Garlic has been used to prevent infection and reduce inflammation since the days of ancient Egypt. Then, as now it has been used for the common cold, high blood pressure and the prevention of gangrene. A 1917 article showed that, of 56 different treatments tried in the Metropolitan Hospital in New York, garlic was the most effective against tuberculosis. It was also found to be effective against whooping cough. Onion, a close relative of garlic, has likewise been used to treat many diseases, including smallpox.

Echinacea—a genus of beautiful flowers belonging to the daisy family commonly known as coneflowers—has a long history in treating infections. Echinacea strengthens the immune system so it can better fight off infections, particularly colds and flu. It is especially effective in nipping infections in the bud if it is taken immediately symptoms first present themselves. It has also proved effective in treating blood infections, smallpox, anthrax, typhoid fever, sepsis and burns.

Cod liver oil contains vitamins A and D and omega-3 fatty acids which help maintain a healthy immune system. Physicians have used it to treat infections such as tuberculosis for over 100 years. And so we could continue, citing one natural remedy after another with a proven track record of fighting disease and strengthening the immune system. And we haven't even mentioned homeopathy, naturopathy, medical herbalism, acupuncture and other alternative therapies.

As we have seen, the belief that vaccines were instrumental in changing our world from a plague-infested hell to our modern 'heaven' of happy, healthy people at the peak of physical and mental fitness is soundly refuted by the overwhelming evidence we have put before you in this afterword. To date, despite the existence of thousands of unvaccinated children, there has never been a 'completely vaccinated' versus 'never vaccinated' study to compare the difference between the short- and long-term health of both groups. We wonder why. . .
