In the recent propaganda campaign, designed to use a measles outbreak as an example of what happens when parents don't vaccinate their children, commentators have stated that, prior to the "epidemic," measles cases in the area had shrunk to zero---as if eliminating the disease were a proper goal of vaccination.

This is bluster and nonsense. At one time, before the obsession to give shots took hold, parents would take their children to the home of a child who had come down with measles, so these kids could catch the illness and be done with it.

Zero reported measles cases is no sign that all is well. Vaccines can and do cause other very serious disease problems, and because the symptoms don't resemble measles, other names are given to these conditions, and no connection is made to the effects of vaccines.

The true goal of immunization has nothing to do with vaccination. It has to do with strengthening a child's immune system so he/she can stage an acute and full inflammatory response when illness occurs, after which the child gains lifelong immunity from measles, mumps, chickenpox, and the like.

A child with a weak immune system will become ill from a number of causes, regardless of vaccinations. One of these major causes is poor nutrition. No vaccine can cure that. Good clean food can.

But these simple facts are ignored as "conspiracy theory" by doctors. If a mainstream doctor gives any credence to the idea of making the immune system stronger, he'll deny this reduces or eliminates the need for vaccination.

Of course, the medical attacks leveled at "anti-vaxxers" are, at the highest level, nothing more than an insistence that chemical drugs and vaccines must continue to sell. These power players are quite aware that a sensible and natural approach to healthcare does, as a matter of course, vastly reduce the interest in their products.

When it comes to fundamental politics, the medical cartel has, for a hundred years---backed by government and huge media operations-been engaged in the process of holding the planet hostage to chemical treatments. This is an example of why the Founders never permitted government to engage in commercial operations.

The result would be enforced monopoly.
