Measles (rubeola) is a contagious childhood disease caused by a virus and spread by coughing, sneezing or breathing on another individual.  During measles, the body literally burns up the cells containing the invading virus.   This incineration takes place at the site of the spots or rash.  Measles in young infants, teenagers and adults can be severe with incredible complications and a high mortality rate.

The incubation period is typically 10 to 20 days and the infection lasts several weeks. Most cases of measles are mild and symptoms begin with a light, hacking cough, low fever, runny eyes and nose and general signs of a cold. Four to five days before the skin breaks out into spots, the cough can become more severe along with hacking,  swelling, redness of the eyes and sensitivity to light. Fevers can be as high as  104-105 F. No need to go into panic mode.  Fever is not the enemy.  High temperatures are what helps the body kill off the infection.  High fever and cold do not respond to antibiotics, aspirin or cough medicine.  Best to let the body naturally deal with the infection the way it was created to do so.  

The symptoms increase before the rash appears and 24-49 hours before the rash appears, the inside of the mouth is covered with grayish-white dots surrounded by reddening. In the beginning the rash is faint and starts appearing behind the ears becoming  darker as it spreads to the face, neck and arms within 24 hours. Several days later it fades away moving to the legs and feet and then gradually fades from the rest of the body in the next few days. Once it all disappears, the child's immune system has "graduated" from it's challenge and can be deemed not only more mature, but immuned for the rest of the child's life.   Recovery from measles in a previously healthy child is usually complete without complications.  Rarely, there are those that need a second exposure before having been fully challenged and graduated into full immunity.  

A severe case of measles can include secondary infections such as otitis media (inner ear infections), strep, bronchitis, pneumonia, hepatitis and Haemophilus influenza. Occasionally, extremely high fevers, brain inflammation and convulsions can be followed by permanent brain damage, transverse myelitis, subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, deafness, blindness, paralysis, and death. Complications are more common in adults, in immune compromised or chronically ill children and in babies under one year old.

An atypical, severe form of measles has been seen in individuals who have been vaccinated.   This arose after the first introduction of a measles vaccine.  This is resistant to treatments and often degenerates into pneumonia or meningitis.  Symptoms begin with a fever, headache and stomach pain for several days and then a rash appears on the hands and feet and progresses towards the head - just the opposite progression that is seen in natural measles. The rash is especially noticeable on the legs and in body creases.  Live virus measles vaccine, which is licensed for use in the U.S. today, can sometimes cause vaccine strain measles virus infection, which is very severe and can end in death.

History shows that in advanced countries where better hygiene was practiced, children recovered from measles without complications.   In 1900 there were 13.3 measles deaths per 100,000. By 1955 the death rate was 0.03 per 100,000 a decline of 97.7% eight years before the 1st vaccination.      Between 1915 and 1958 there was a decline in death from measles in the USA and England by 95%. 

It is admitted that little is known about the long term affects after a high titre live measles vaccine.  One was used in a randomized trial in Senegal.  At birth, infants were "assigned" a vaccination at five months followed by a low titre Schwarz vaccine at 10 months of age.  All were followed for 24-39 months.  The study found that the mortality after vaccination was significantly higher in two of the three groups.  Those two received the high titre vaccines.  The Senegal study did not demonstrate decrease in disease incidents.

Other studies published have stated that these high titre vaccines contribute to the  high mortality rate of the female recipients.   One of them conducted in Guinea-Bissau, Africa.  Another study was conducted in Gambia.  The Gambian study was to only compare the two vaccines: Schwarz and the Edmonston-Zagreb.  The "vaccine investigators" for this trial, with the simple stroke of the pen, decided that the two vaccines were just as "safe" and "effective" as the other simply because they brought the same adverse reactions.   Not because neither prevented adverse reactions.

The National Health Federation put out a report in 1963 of a study conducted by the WHO.  WHO's study revealed that individuals vaccinated for measles were 14 times more likely to contract the disease than the unvaccinated.  The 20th Immunization Conference Proceedings of May 6-9, 1985 shed light on another government study was conducted in which made note that the "non-preventable" cases of measles occurred in the vaccinated.  In the 70's the measles death rate was the exact same as in the 60's.

Experimentation moves to California.   From 1989-1991 Pfizer conducted measles vaccine trial with Kaiser Permanente, the L.A. County Department of Health, and the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).  Over 700 "mostly minority" infants were injected with the Edmonston Zagreb measles vaccine which parents were not made aware was strictly experimental. 

Lets talk some more on Efficacy.  Does the vaccine even work?  A high proportion of individuals vaccinated early in life were later found in their adult hood to having developed cervical cancer, skin cancers and multiple sclerosis.  One may look at that and say it's strictly coincidental.  However, these cases caused enough concern to be reported in the Lancet Medical Journal in 1985.

From 1983-1990 there has been a 423% increase in the umber of measles cases.  The CDC puts out a weekly report.  In their June 6th,1986  publication they note that 80% of notified cases of measles had been vaccinated.  In 1984 100% of vaccinated students developed measles.  CDC had this to say: "This outbreak demonstrates that transmission of measles can occur within a school population with a documented immunization level of 100%...vaccinated persons were at greater risk of clinical illness if they had close exposure to a measles patient."  Antibody titres were detected for those with resent booster vaccinations.  However, no long term study with scientific analysis exists that definitively concludes this directly correlates with protections from the disease.  CDC further states that "this outbreak suggests that measles transmission can occur within the 2%-10% of expected vaccine failures."  In the same year Corpus Christi, TX experienced an epidemic in which it is noted that 99% of the children affected had been vaccinated.  95% of them were presumed to be immune.  This according to the New England Journal of Medicine.  In 1992 Dr. Atkinson of the CDC reported at the Drug Administration Workshop that "Measles transmission has been clearly documented among vaccinated persons".  He went on to admit that in some of the large outbreaks, 95% of the cases had been vaccinated.  Between 1986-1994 1,762 "batches" of the measles vaccine were released for mass vaccination in India.  During the   campaign 79 children died within twenty-four hours.  Currently, India is testing a new nasal measles vaccine. 

There is a myth that mothers vaccinated during childhood for measles pass on maternal antibodies to their children.  Yet these mothers, never having acquired the disease naturally, do not have the natural measles antibodies to pass onto their children. Therefore, babies born today are left vulnerable to the disease from the moment of birth.  By 1993 more than 25% of measles cases were occurring in babies under the age of one.  In an Albuquerque, NM Journal the CDC attributed this to the growing number of mothers who were vaccinated during the 1960's, 70's and 80's.  The observation over three decades is clearly made by the U.S. government that the MMR denies the human body of natural immunity to be passed down. 

June 2006 one infant died and five others were hospitalized in critical condition in Ho Chi Minh City of Vietnam.   Head of the National Open Vaccination Program, Do Sy Hien, said that the number of children receiving compulsory vaccinations dropped due to the incidents.   He admitted that Priorix, the MMR injection involved should not have been on the program. Great Britain also experienced deaths after the jab at the same time.  Although, this is a not a first for any country.

Encephalopathy is a brain disorder often followed by measles vaccination.  In one particular study published in 1998, medical records of children were obtained who had received their first does between 1970-1993.  Criteria was met by the identification of encaphalopathy within 15 days of inoculation.  48 children of 10-49 months met this criteria.  They had either received the measles alone or in the triple combination vaccine.  Eight children died.  The rest suffered mental regression, retardation, chronic seizures,  motor and sensory deficits, and movement disorders.  

Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis is another side effect listed after measles vaccination.    An infection of the central nervous system.  Progression in this adverse reaction leads to death of the nerve cells and brain inflammation. 

Mumps can cause fever, headache and inflammation of the salivary glands, which causes the swelling of the cheeks. Incubation is generally 14 to 21 days. Beginning symptoms may be low fever, headache, vomiting and earache. Swelling first appears in front of the ear above the jaw line and sometimes involves the glands under the chin. There is discomfort when eating because the saliva irritates swollen glands. One side or both sides of the face may swell. Swelling usually goes away in a week and recovery is usually complete without complications.

In rare occasions mumps can be severe and cause an inflammation of the lining of the brain and spinal cord.  This is meningitis.   Symptoms include severe headache, vomiting, irritability, lethargy.  Sometimes it can cause inflammation of the brain itself and can cause permanent brain damage, deafness or death.  Adolescent or adult males who get mumps can develop painful inflammation and swelling of the testicles (orchitis).  Rarely, this causes sterility.  Life long immunity and a more mature immune system is also the result of recovery from this challenging disease.   

Though several vaccine strains exist, the most popular mumps vaccine is derived from the Jeryl Lynn strain of the mumps virus. The Jeryl Lynn strain is an attenuated form of the mumps virus, produced by passage in embryonated hensí eggs and chick embryo cell cultures.

There are many published adverse reactions to mumps vaccination.  Ranging from atypical mumps, which is a severe form of the disease after vaccination, to meningitis, diabetes, and causing higher rates of mumps cases.  The Lancet reported that in West Germany, authorities had listed twenty-seven neurological reactions to the mumps vaccine including Meningitis, febrile convulsions, and epilepsy. There are 30,000 new cases of epilepsy. 10,000 of which are children, in the UK alone. 

Rubella is also known as German Measles or the "three day measles"  and is usually a mild childhood disease which used to be common in American children five to nine years old. However, today in the U.S., rubella is most frequently seen among teenagers and young adults.  In these age brackets it can be severely serious.

In 1969, there were 57,686 cases of rubella reported in the U.S., the highest number of cases reported In one year. In 1992, there were 160 cases of rubella reported in the U.S. with one death reported to have resulted from disease complications. In 2002, there were only 18 reported cases.

The virus can be found in the throat and blood of an infected individual.   Incubation period is 14 to 21 days. Symptoms begin with a mild cold, low-grade fever and swelling of the glands in the back of the neck and under the chin. Sometimes the glands behind the ears become enlarged. A pink rash first appears on the face and then spreads to the arms, head, chest and sometimes the legs.  Young adults, especially young women, who get rubella may have swollen glands in the back of the neck and some pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints (arthritis) that persists for several weeks. Recovery from rubella is usually quick but occasionally brain inflammation and chronic arthritis can cause permanent damage.

If a woman gets rubella in the first trimester of pregnancy, she has a 20 to 25 percent greater chance of giving birth to a deformed baby and is at risk of suffering a miscarriage. Birth defects can include blindness, damage to the heart and major arteries, deafness, abnormally small brain and mental retardation.

Three rubella vaccines were licensed in the U.S. in 1969: HPV- 77:DE-5 (duck embryo), HPV-77:DK-12 (dog kidney), and Cendehill (rabbit kidney) strains. The HPV-77:DK-12 was later removed from the market because there was a higher rate of joint complaints following vaccination with this strain. In January 1979, the RA 27/3 (human diploid fibroblast) strain (Meruvax-II) was licensed and all other strains were discontinued. The RA 27/3 rubella vaccine is a live attenuated virus. It was first isolated in 1965 at the Wistar Institute from a rubella-infected aborted fetus. The virus was attenuated by 25-30 passages in tissue culture, using human diploid fibroblasts. It does not contain duck, chicken or egg protein. The method in which the unborn child was found infected with Rubella for vaccine manufacturing was conducted with brutal deception and intended heartless murder of the child.  The mother had no prior knowledge of what was to become of her baby once the physician convinced her to "terminate" the pregnancy.  Learn the details here.

 Conflict of Interests? Dr. Samuel Katz was the Wilburt Cornell Davison Professor and Chairman Emeritus of Pediatrics at Duke University.  He has Chaired the Committee on Infectious Diseases of the American Academy of Pediatrics (the Redbook Committee), the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the CDC, the Vaccine Priorities Study of the Institute of Medicine (IOM), and several WHO and CVI vaccine and HIV panels.   He is a member of many scientific advisory committees and boards including the NIH, IOM, WHO, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, The Burroughs Wellcome Fund (Chairman), and the Hasbro Children's Foundation.  He was Chairman of the Public Policy Council of the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) and currently co-chairs IDSA's Vaccine Initiative.  Having relinquished the Chairmanship in 1990, his principle activities now are with vaccines and pediatric AIDS. He participates in the clinical research trials of the NIH, served on their Committee for AIDS Vaccines, devotes time each week to the care of children with HIV infection, and was a member of The Pediatric Executive Committee of NIAID's ACTG. His vaccine policy work continues through CDC, IOM, NIH, IDSA and WHO committees and consultancies.  

Dr. Sam Katz, with the help of Dr. John Enders developed a measles vaccine.  In a chapter from his book “Vaccines”, he writes with two others;  “The risk of serious complications and death is increased in infants and adults.”  And later, “The highest risk of death was in children younger than one year and adults. Neither vaccination nor revaccination is a guarantee that one will be protected from the measles and could well be a significant problem in the future. Boosting of antibody titers appears to be transient, with several investigators finding antibody levels to the pre-revaccination level within months to years.” 

At the Oklahoma State University's Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa, clinical trials of a new measles vaccine are being   conducted.   Doctor Stanley Grogg says the trials are in the third phase of a four-phase national study to find a new measles vaccine. He says the pharmaceutical company that makes the vaccine used a 1967 measles virus to make the original vaccine and that vaccine will be used up in two to three years, so a new vaccination must be found.   Here is the original article. OSU-Tulsa Selected To Hold Trials For New Measles Vaccine

Ten years and running, there exists the debate over the triple vaccine and it's possible link to autism.    Every licensed physician that has questioned the marketed promises of vaccinations has concluded that there is a high probability between compulsory vaccinations and what CDC has advised to be an epidemic.  Where as it was once published as 1 in every 166 children is affected with some form of autism [by CDC] that ratio has been re-adjusted to 1 in 150 by CDC.  Because given estimates rise every couple years, this is a clear indication that autism continues to rise.  Autism continues to rise overseas.  Scotland has put itself on the media map with their rising numbers and concern.

Though unfortunately unpublished, Dr. Oleske and Professor Zecca of New Jersey Medical School, researched and found abnormally high titres of anti-measles antibodies in autistic children.  They concluded that the MMR vaccine may be the cause of chronic over activation of the immune system  leading to damage of the brain and nervous system.  Scientist Vijendra K. Singh, at the Utah State University (Department of Biology and Biotechnology Center), published a conclusive study in 2001 confirming that MMR-vaccinated children have abnormally high levels of measles virus antibodies, indicating that autism may be a neuro-immune response to the vaccine. Singh found auto-antibodies in 80% of autistic children while normal children had none. These auto-antibodies apparently attack the myelin proteins surrounding the sheath of nerve fibers, resulting in brain dysfunction. Singh found that 55% of autistic children developed this condition after receiving the MMR vaccine and 33% after receiving the diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DTP) vaccine.  

Summer 2006 There are publications put out of how U.S. scientists have confirmed the MMR vaccine linked to autism: World Times,  UK Telegraph,  and the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons.  Dr. Steven Walker of the Wake Forest University School of Medicine in North Carolina, conducted a study in which he found that 85% of samples taken from the intestines of children with regressive autism contain the vaccine measles strain.  This basically replicates the findings of Dr. Andrew Wakefield of the UK who's studies were publicized in the Lancet,  accused of financial conflict of interest by the Lancet,  but remains strongly supported by physicians and scientists.   Accusations by the Lancet were later found and published to be false.  Clearly, the casual relationship between vaccinations and autism is far beyond the issue of mercury's continuing existance in vaccines.

It is vital to note that MMR vaccine, and the chronic measles infection so often following, depletes the body of Vitamin A. In Africa, the death toll was reduced to virtually zero by administering 250,000 units of vitamin A with the MMR vaccine. Vitamin A beforehand will prevent damage from the MMR vaccine that has now been shown to infect the gut of at least 1/3 of the children with autism.

MMR QUOTES:

• "Under normal conditions, healthy children do not die from or become disabled from the complications of measles and if they do, questions should be asked about their management."  ---Jayne Donegan MB

• "I have myself, through Natural Hygiene, over 16 years, treated all forms and hundreds of cases of typhus and typhoid fevers, pneumonia's, measles and dysentery's, and have not lost a single patient. The same is true of scarlet and other fevers. No medicine whatever was given".--Dr Trall, 1860.

  "Many viral infectious diseases have been cured  and can continue to be   cured by the proper administration of Vitamin C.  Yes, the vaccinations for   these treatable infectious diseases are completely unnecessary when one has   the access to proper treatment with vitamin C.  And, yes, all the side   effects of vaccinations...are also completely unnecessary since the vaccinations do not have to be given in the first place with the availability of properly dosed vitamin C."---Dr Thomas Levy M.D., J.D.

• "In fact, most deaths seen when measles outbreaks occur in the United States occur either in children in which vaccination was contraindicated, the vaccine did not work or in children with chronic, immune-suppressing diseases.  In fact, in most studies these children catching the measles or other childhood diseases have been either fully immunized or partially immunized. The big secret among "vaccinologists" is that anywhere from 20 to 50% of children are not resistant to the diseases for which they have been immunized.-Dr. Russel Blaylock

• "But the ordinary child who gets measles, even the child with a moderate degree of malnutrition and so forth, if you give intravenous vitamin C supplementary to other forms of treatment, the response very often, not always, is absolutely dramatic If you get them early enough. You must get them early. If you delay, and they have been unconscious let us say for days, or a day or two, you cannot reverse it. The damage is permanent. If you get them early, give them this treatment and there is no problem. And that makes me very, very angry, because they talk about "Oh, we must stop these kids getting measles" and so forth. Well, all right, I can fix them if they get measles."---Dr Kalokerinos

• "A study by Ronne (Lancet, 5/5/85 1-5) showed that adults who had had natural measles with a rash had a decreased incidence of various cancers, including cervical. Another study showed that women are less likely to contract ovarian cancer if they have had mumps during childhood."--Dr Jayne Donegan

• "the process of recovering from the natural disease also "primes" the organism nonspecifically to respond promptly and efficiently to other micro-organisms in the future. A crucial step in the maturation of a healthy immune system, the ability to mount a vigorous, acute response to infection unquestionably represents a major ingredient of optimum health and well-being in general.....................It has taken us many centuries of adaptation and "herd immunity" to convert it into an ordinary childhood disease, such that, when I first encountered it at the age of 6, nonspecific mechanisms were already in place to help me deal with it effectively. In that historical sense, the permanent immunity acquired by recovery from the natural disease represents an absolute net gain for the total health of the race as well. However the vaccines act inside the human body, true natural immunity or any other qualitative benefit cannot be ascribed to them: their effectiveness is a mere statistic, and the resulting "immunity" a narrowly defined technicality."---Richard Moskowitz, M.D.

• "Measles is the manner in which a child's body throws off toxemia. When children are cared for improperly, they become toxemic, and their skin eliminates toxin to a greater degree than does the skin of grown people."--John Tilden MD
• "Doctors maintain that the (MMR) inoculation is necessary to prevent measles encephalitis, which they say occurs about once in 1,000 cases. After decades of experience with measles, I question this statistic, and so do many other pediatricians. The incidence of 1/1,000 may be accurate for children who live in conditions of poverty and malnutrition, but in the middle-and upper-income brackets, if one excludes simple sleepiness from the measles itself, the incidence of true encephalitis is probably more like 1/10,900 or 1/100,000."------Dr Mendelsohn

• "Vaccinating against measles is not just useless, but harmful. In the past, infants would not get measles. They would get the protection through their mothers, who used to have measles themselves. Mothers who were vaccinated against measles cannot pass on the protection to their infants, so infants now get measles."--Dr Buchwald MD

• "There are repeated reports of measles epidemics occurring in fully vaccinated populations. These failures have occurred repeatedly since the vaccines introduction.   Other documented research findings follow:
      A survey conducted in 1978--covering 30 states in the US--revealed that "more than half of the children who contracted measles had been adequately vaccinated;"
  Moskowitz et al. found that in those states with comprehensive (k-grade 12) immunization requirements, between 61 and 90 percent of measles cases occur in persons who received the recommended vaccines; and
      A review of 1,600 cases of measles in Quebec, Canada in the period of January to May of 1989, revealed that 5 8 percent of school-age cases had been previously vaccinated.
      According to an unpublished WHO research study comparing what would be defined as a "measles susceptible" group of children, to a control group that had been immunized for measles, it was observed that the non-immunized group manifested a normal contraction rate of 2.4 percent, whereas the immunized group exhibited a 33.5 percent contraction level. This implies a 15 times greater likelihood of infection by the immunized.89 (The researchers responded to these results with the comment that the vaccine must have been mishandled, or perhaps the vaccine used was badly manufactured.)"--- UNIVERSAL IMMUNIZATION Medical Miracle or Masterful Mirage By Dr. Raymond Obomsawin

• "It was similar with the measles vaccination. They went through Africa, South America and elsewhere, and vaccinated sick and starving children...They thought they were wiping out measles, but most of those susceptible to measles died from some other disease that they developed as a result of being vaccinated. The vaccination reduced their immune levels and acted like an infection. Many got septicaemia, gastro-enteritis, etcetera, or made their nutritional status worse and they died from malnutrition. So there were very few susceptible infants left alive to get measles. It's one way to get good statistics, kill all those that are susceptible, which is what they literally did." --Dr Kalokerinos, M.D.

• "You cannot immunize sick children, malnourished children, and expect to get away with it. You'll kill far more children than would have died from natural infection."--Dr Kalokerinos
