Thus, rising autistic disorder prevalence is directly related to vaccines manufactured utilizing human fetal cells.
Dr Theresa Deisher, et al

The Belfast Telegraph reports some astounding facts.

This article evoked a feeling for me that there is a large ‘elephant in the room’ which must never be mentioned. Read through the entire article and you will find not one mention of the possible link between the increase in autism amongst school children and the routine vaccines given to those same Irish children. The truth is, worldwide we are injecting children with increasing amounts of toxic substances under the ideological belief that ‘vaccines are safe and effective and needed’ for a healthy child.

Increased paternal age and DSM revisions were not related to rising autistic disorder prevalence.
Dr Theresa Deisher, et al

Here is a 2014 study which explores a possible reason for this massive increase in autism rates happening around the world.

Excerpts from the paper that I found most interesting are in the box below, but you can read the full 14 page research paper published in the Journal of Public Health and Epidemiology by Dr Theresa Deisher and her team.

Theresa Deisher began her investigation based on science. She allowed scientific analysis to lead her to surprising conclusions about the impact of injecting babies and children with human cell fragments from aborted tissue used for vaccine development. Why is this information ignored?

An 82% increase of Northern Ireland schoolchildren is describing an EPIDEMIC of HUGE proportions. There is no such thing as a genetic epidemic. This statistic points to an environmental problem.

If we notice an epidemic in a herd of animals we investigate EVERY possible cause in order to get to the root of the problem. The health or lack of health amongst a herd of animals is generally going to impact the bottom line of the owner. When a herd of humans suffers ill health there is an opposite reality – MANY STAND TO GAIN. Human illness is a thriving industry.

Vaccines are the single product throughout the world that provide total protection to the manufacturer in the event of any negative impact of their product. If a batch of vaccines is faulty – no problem, the manufacturer is not going to be implicated. If vaccines have not been stored properly or are not administered correctly – no problem. There is no event connected with any vaccine added to the CDC recommended childhood schedule that can be prosecuted. All vaccines that make it onto this schedule are shielded from all liability. All adverse events following vaccines are born entirely by the individual receiving them, or in the case of a child, the family.

There is a process by which some have received compensation for vaccine injuries or deaths in the USA known as the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. This program passed in Congress in 1986, began payouts in 1988, and has paid out well over $4,000,000,000 for those who have: 1) known about this program; 2) filed their petition within 2 years; 3) were able to find a lawyer to represent them in this often agonizingly slow process (many years); and 4) were able to prove to the satisfaction of the Special Master of this hidden court, against the arguments of Department of Defense Legal Team, that their claim is valid. In this hidden court there is no process of full discovery from the manufacturer on any details relating to safety, testing, product manufacturing protocols, or anything else. Additionally, each case is heard privately and claimants are unaware of the outcome of other cases which may be very similar to their own.

Buyer beware.

Please don’t learn the hard way – through personal experience of vaccine injury. Please research this topic more thoroughly than any other topic related to the health and wellbeing of you precious family.

Edited on 28 May 2020 to add the following:

An Italian research group has also investigated the fetal cells in one specific vaccine, Priorix Tetra® vaccine which relies on the 1966 MRC5 fetal cell line. They discuss the details of their findings here https://www.corvelva.it/speciale-corvelva/vaccinegate-en/priorix-tetra-human-genome-and-mrc-5-cell-line-comparative-study.html

My conclusion is that when this grand experiment began in the 1960s – of using fetal tissue from aborted human babies as a growth medium for viruses to assist in the development of vaccines, the level of understanding of the human immune system, the human genome, and many other biological details were out of their range of thinking — let alone understanding. Scientists and researchers thought they were gifting humanity with disease avoidance and prevention through vaccines, but in reality, what have they actually brought about with the injection of human DNA fragments into our most precious, most vulnerable members of society? Will the establishment continue to ignore? Will individuals continue to trust?

Hepatitis A

Is the Hepatitis A Vaccine a good idea for everyone? Even the CDC states: “Good personal hygiene and proper sanitation can also help prevent the spread of hepatitis A.”

There are two versions of the hepatitis A vaccine available: Havrix by GSK and VAQTA by Merck. You can click on the brand to read the complete vaccine package inserts (vpi) supplied by the manufacturers from the FDA website. Some points to note: Headings 6. Adverse Reactions, 11. Description and 13. Statement concerning cancer, gene mutation, and fertility. These same headings are used in all vaccines.

Both vaccines are grown using MRC-5 human diploid cells harvested from an aborted human baby. Both vaccines contain residual DNA fragments from this human baby.

The other concerning ingredients are highlighted. The amount may be claimed to be ‘very small’ but injecting aluminum, formaldehyde, formalin, sodium borate, sodium chloride, bovine albumin, etc. in any amount is a questionable practice.

Who is at risk for Hepatitis A infection? From CDC website

How is hepatitis A infection transmitted? or HOW WOULD I CATCH IT?

Are there reasons NOT to get a hepatitis A vaccine? Are there risks? The following are screen shots taken directly from the vpi showing just some of the information under “Adverse Reactions”:

Havrix by GSK
VAQTA by Merck

As a Christian saved by the grace of Jesus Christ and cleansed from my sins through His blood, I cannot consent to the use of aborted human baby body parts for any scientific reason. Even more abhorrent is injecting fragments of those aborted baby body parts into the body. The Old Testament emphasis the life giving properties of blood. In the New Testament we understand that our body is the temple of the Spirit of God and a sacred place. A good friend wrote more about that here.

The longterm impact of injecting human DNA cell fragments into babies and children is only coming to light now. Every parent needs to understand that the longterm risk was not considered or evaluated when the vaccines were developed. I’ve summarized some recent medical findings here.

The CDC has clearly stated that good hygiene and sanitation are effective in avoiding Hepatitis A. I’ll stick to those.

Vaccine Ingredients

You’ve been told – probably many times – that vaccines are safe. So, what exactly is in that syringe being injected into the body of someone you love? Do you know? Does your doctor know? The following is a list directly from the CDC of the ingredients in all vaccines. The color coding will help you determine which vaccines contain human cell derivatives such as aborted fetal cell debris (including male and female DNA fragments), animal proteins, possible allergy irritants, and antibiotics.

Orange: Animal-derived 💗 Pink: Derived from humans cells 💛 Yellow: Toxic to humans 💚 Green: Allergy irritant 💙 Blue: Antibiotic

I always urge parents to double check all information – regardless of the source. Don’t believe me, but be sure to spend more time researching vaccines than you do any other item you may purchase for your baby – such as a car seat. Your baby’s health is too valuable to take any chances. Too many parents have learned the hard way that the risk of vaccines is actually quite high.

If you do decide your baby needs a vaccine, please research whether a Hepatitis B vaccine on the first day of life is a necessity for YOUR baby. Is YOUR baby truly at risk for Hepatitis B – an infection primarily shared through sexual promiscuity and the sharing of needles?

Before giving any vaccine at any time, take 3 minutes to read through these steps you can take prior to getting vaccines to help protect your baby. One of the biggest things you can do is to be aware that giving Tylenol (acetaminophen) in conjunction with vaccines greatly increases the risk of a vaccine reaction.

I have no vested interests in this topic. I write to educate and share information to empower parents to make wise choices for the life-long health and wellbeing of their family. Vaccine makers are 100% liability free. If their products cause any harm for any reason you cannot sue them or make any claim against them. Pause. Think about that.

Vaccines Contain Fetal Cells

Posted on by

Life size replica of baby at 12 week gestation.

Many deny. Dr Richard Pan stated in the CA legislature (was he under oath??) that it was a myth that vaccines contain aborted human fetal cells. Many doctors state something similar. Even a well known Christian author who writes science text books, denies the use of aborted fetal cells in vaccines. Dr Paul Offit, a primary vaccine spokesperson, actually admits the use of fetal cells, but said there were only 2 abortions involved and they were a long time ago.

Watch this short video excerpt where 3 minutes in, Dr Stanley Plotkin admits that well over 76 abortions took place in the development of the Varicella, Rubella, MMR, and Hepatitis A vaccines. His testimony is part of a 9 hour deposition which he volunteered to do in a child custody case in Michigan involving vaccines in January 2018. He confirms in this statement that his experiments involved lung tissue, skin tissue, tongue tissue, and tissue from other body parts of these healthy babies who were aborted at 3+ months gestation.

Perhaps most surprising is Dr Plotkin’s complete disregard – at any point in his illustrious vaccine career – to investigate whether injecting human DNA fragments could have a deleterious nonspecific effect (unintended consequences, in lay terms). In correspondence, he dismisses the extensive work of Dr Theresa Deischer who notes clear signals in the population after the introduction of vaccines containing aborted fetal cell fragment debris. I summarized some of her conclusions in a previous blog. On what basis does he dismiss her? She’s well known to be Anti-Vax. I don’t think she started out against vaccines, but she allowed the science to influence her opinion of vaccine safety – which any honest scientist would do.

Dr Plotkin admits being an atheist and shows disdain for those having a religious conviction against the principle of using aborted human cells for scientific experimentation. The vaccine package inserts list aborted fetal cell fragments in the ingredients. And here, the man who states publicly that his vaccine text book is more reliable than the Bible, admits there were a very large number of abortions involved in the development of vaccines.

Would you buy your baby shoes made with human baby skin?

Is it ok to have human fetal cells in any product?

It is clear that abortions provided a foundation for vaccine science and that vaccines continue to contain aborted fetal cell fragments. You can find more details here.

Christians. We need to talk. Do you think injecting babies with both male and female DNA fragments is a good idea? Do we NEED this procedure in order to keep our babies healthy? How is this different from sacrificing babies to Molech? I’d love to hear your views.

My goal is not to provoke guilt in anyone. We don’t know what we don’t know. But please, do not let your actions, guided by the medical advice you received, continue to dominate your current outlook. Young parents need wise information. Young Christian families depend on Christians they look up to. We owe it to them to be fully informed. Can we really afford to ONLY listen to the spokespeople for the $60 billion vaccine industry? Please take a few hours to review this critically important topic.

WHAT IS THE IMPACT of injecting human DNA into our BABIES???

Posted on by

In the previous blog conclusive evidence was presented showing that some vaccines contain residual human fetal cell material from the growth mediums used in vaccine manufacture. Most people are unaware that the shots they inject into babies contain fragments of cells from human babies, and some even deny that this is true.

Four significant vaccines on the CDC recommended schedule [1] all contain human fetal tissue fragments, including both male and female DNA:

  • M-M-R®II: exclusively available in the USA since 1979 targeting measles, mumps, and rubella; 2 doses at 12 months and 5 years. [2]
  • Varivax®: the vaccine aimed to prevent chicken pox, added to the schedule in 1996; 2 doses at 12 months and 5 years.
  • Hepatitis A vaccine, approved in 1996, and added to the schedule for all babies in 2005; 2 doses given between 12 and 24 months. [3]
  • Pentacel® combined vaccine targeting diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, polio, Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib), introduced in 2008. Four doses given at 2, 4, 6, and 15 months of age. [4]

The average baby is injected with 10 different human tissue-containing shots before they go to school. Eight of them before the age of two years. Surely such widespread use of this growth medium – human fetal cells – was thoroughly demonstrated to be safe – right?

Since 40 years have passed since the first vaccine containing human cell debris was introduced, there has been ample time to study how this vaccine containing human DNA fragments could be impacting those that are injected with it.

But, how much DNA is really in a vaccine? Isn’t it just infinitesimally small amounts?

DNA residuals in human fetal cell line manufactured vaccines

In addition to the ingredients listed on the package insert for Meruvax II® (rubella), we detected significant levels of human ssDNA (142 ± 8 ng/vial) as well as dsDNA (35 ±10 ng/vial) fragmented to ~215 base pairs in length. The MMR II® package insert discloses the presence of human fetal residuals [sic] [but not] how much cell substrate dsDNA or ssDNA contaminates each dose. In each vial of Havrix® [Hepatitis A vaccine], we detected ssDNA (301 ± 153 ng/vial) as well as dsDNA (44 ± 24 ng/vial) unfragmented residual DNA more than 48.5 K base pairs in length. The Havrix® package insert discloses the presence of human fetal cellular residuals from the MRC-5 cell line, but not the DNA contaminant levels specifically.[5]

The Varivax® vaccine [chicken pox] is manufactured using the human diploid cell line MRC5, and is contaminated with 2 micrograms of cell substrate double stranded DNA. Single stranded DNA levels are not reported in Merck’s Varivax Summary Basis for Approval document nor are the length of the DNA fragments contaminating the vaccine (Merck 2011). [5]

Vaccines that have been cultured on or manufactured using the WI-38 fetal cell line such as MeruvaxII®, MMRII®, Varivax®, Havrix® and Pentacel® are additionally contaminated with fragments of human endogenous retrovirus HERVK (Victoria et al., 2010). Recent evidence has shown that human endogenous retroviral transcripts are elevated in the brains of patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder (Frank et al., 2005), [5]

According to EPA recommendations, birth year change points for prevalence of autistic disorder should drive consideration of environmental triggers, as for any disease (McDonald 2010).[5]

Scientists have been studying and learning that injected “human fetal DNA fragments are inducers of autoimmune reactions, while both DNA fragments and retroviruses are known to potentiate genomic insertions and mutations (Yolken et al., 2000; Kurth 1998; U S Food and Drug Administration 2011).” [5]

How has injecting male and female DNA fragments into ALL babies impacted their health? 

A detailed analysis of the data available and has found startling results. There are statistically obvious change points associated with the addition of fetal cell line vaccines and increased diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder: “Autistic disorder began to rise in the US after birth year 1978 (Newschaffer and Gurney 2005).” This corresponds to the introduction of the MMRII developed with two different fetal cell tissues. [5]

Additionally, “The US 1988.4 change point corresponded to the addition of a second dose of MMRII® to a measles vaccination campaign that increased compliance from ≤50 to 82% between birth years 1987 and 1989 (Centers for Disease Control 1989; Kaye and Jick 2001) as well as to the introduction of Poliovax in 1987. [5]

And, “The 1995.6 autistic disorder change point corresponded to the approval and introduction of the Varicella vaccine (Varivax®).” [5]

This chart summarizes the autism change points in relationship to the MMRII, the push for higher uptake of MMRII, and the chicken pox vaccine. [5]

Why aren’t the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), HHS (Federal Department of Health and Human Services), the CDC (Federal Center for Disease Control), or the ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) concerned about fetal cell contamination in vaccines causing harm?

The primary measure of effectiveness for the CDC, FDA, and vaccine makers is focused on “serologic evidence of immunity,” or a blood test showing raised antibody titers. No vaccine has ever been investigated for mutagenic or carcinogenic properties – tested and tracked long-term to see if they damage the genetic material of the recipient, if they could be implicated in causing cancer, or if they could be linked to infertility later in life. [6]

Even with all the advances in genetic understanding since the mapping of the human genome in 2001, the HHS has undertaken NO FURTHER SAFETY STUDIES on these vaccines known to contain human fetal DNA fragments. Further, the HHS has done no safety studies at all on any vaccine for 30+ years.

Isn’t that interesting.

You might be asking, ‘But aren’t the vaccine manufacturers responsible for determining safety?’ Ever since the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, all liability was removed from vaccine manufacturers and the responsibility for vaccine safety was shifted to the HHS, who recently admitted, after being forced by a court order, that no safety testing of vaccines has been undertaken. [7]

In June 2018 I had three minutes during the public comment session at the ACIP meeting held three times a year at the CDC in Atlanta. I briefly presented some of the unintended consequences of the vaccine schedule, commonly known as “non specific effects.” It remains to be seen if this information will drive any change in recommendations.

The vaccine promoters have captured the media through controlling advertising revenue. Fear campaigns are promoted so that parents rush to stay up-to-date on vaccines without examining the ingredients. Doctors are busy and have confidence in the government regulatory agency recommendations. Has our cherished vaccine program helped children avoid short term infectious illness but caused an epidemic in longterm serious developmental impairment and auto-immune disorders?

If you have any fear of your child getting chicken pox, please read the description provided by the CDC: “The clinical course in healthy children is generally mild, with malaise, pruritus (itching), and temperature up to 102°F for 2 to 3 days.” [8]

Would you rather your child have a mild fever and have some itching, or inject them with human cellular debris containing DNA fragments – which has not been tested for whether or not it may adversely impact genetics, play a role in skyrocketing childhood cancers, or impact your future ability to have grandchildren?

So, today the public is pushed to continue to inject their babies with both male and female DNA, with no investigation of the possible mutagenic (genetic alteration) impact it might be having. We watch sky-rocketing rates of childhood cancer and donate money to those searching for ‘cures’. Many parents watch helplessly as their adult children struggle with infertility, but very few make any connection to vaccines. Vaccines were never studied to impact any of that.

Does this seem like “safe” science to you?

Please share this information widely.

I highly recommend that you read the full paper by Theresa Deisher on Impact of Environmental Factors on the Prevalence of Autistic Disorder after 1979 published in the Journal of Public Health and Epidemiology on 9 July 2014.

Are aborted baby parts in vaccines?

Posted on by

14 week gestation

The short factual answer is, YES.

Babies were specifically harvested from their mother’s wombs to provide living human cells as a desirable growth medium for vaccine development in the 1960s. Furthermore, the end product produced today contains some of the actual human DNA fragments used in the development of these products because it is impossible to fully purify a vaccine from all the human cellular debris. The DNA fragments are injected into the body with the rest of the components of the vaccines.

It’s true. While vaccines are pushed as a way to prevent infectious illness in children, most people are not aware that many vaccines are built on aborted human fetal tissue. Furthermore, parents are not told that this ‘preventative measure’ is known to kill some and harm countless numbers of others.

The rubella vaccine was the first vaccine derived from aborted human fetal cells. The rubella vaccine was added as the “R” to the MMRII licensed for use in 1979. This vaccine, exclusively used in the USA and used widely throughout the world, contains both RA27/3 cells (congenital rubella virus derived from an aborted baby) and WI-38 the first cell line used as a growth medium in vaccine development, derived from lung cells harvested from an aborted female baby.

MRC-5, the name of a second cell line used in vaccine development was developed in the U.K. using lung fibroblast cells from a male baby aborted at 14 week gestation (the size of the photo at the top of the page) for ‘psychiatric reasons’. Sometimes referred to as “human diploid cells,” MRC-5 is used in the manufacture of many vaccines, including Pentacle vaccine (since 2008), Hepatitis A and A/B combination vaccines (since 1995), polio vaccine (Poliovax, 1987), and shingles vaccine for adults (2006).

In 1995 Varivax, manufactured by Merck, targeting the varicella or chicken pox virus, derived from aborted human fetal tissue was approved for the USA market and added to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) schedule. This vaccine was developed using both WI-38 cells harvested from a female baby, and MRC-5 cells harvested from the lung fibroblast cells of a 14 week gestation male baby.

Havrix, a Hepatitis A vaccine, propagated in human fibroblasts from the MRC-5 line was approved for use in limited populations groups in 1996. In 2005 ACIP expanded the recommendation for the Hepatitis A vaccine to include all babies in the USA. [1]

“Pentacel® contains inactivated polio viruses grown on the MRC-5 human fetal cell line. Since 2008, Pentacel® is recommended for children at 2, 4 and 6 months of age, and may account for the recent idea that scientists have become more adept at diagnosing autism at younger age. Diagnosis at younger age may more likely be the result of introducing human fetal cell vaccine contaminates to younger children.” [2]

Even today, the CDC confidently describes the rubella vaccine in their pink book:

“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.” Previous rubella versions contained duck embryo, dog kidney or rabbit kidney cells. [3]

The scientists were not concerned about the possible long-term impact of injecting foreign human DNA into a developing baby. The vaccine package insert for this vaccine continues to state, nearly 40 years later, “M-M-R II has not been evaluated for carcinogenic or mutagenic potential, or potential to impair fertility.” [4]

Surely, in 40 years there has been ample time to study how this vaccine, containing human DNA fragments, could be impacting those that are injected with it.

It has been suggested that there was only one abortion that provided the tissue necessary to produce the cell lines used in vaccine development. This is a side issue. But, a closer look reveals that a total of at least 80 separate, elective abortions recorded were involved in the research and final production of the present day rubella vaccine: 21 from the original WI-1 through WI-26 fetal cell lines that failed, plus WI-38 itself, plus 67 from the attempts to isolate the rubella virus. https://cogforlife.org/vaccine-abortions/

As a further attestation to the reality of the scientific use of aborted human fetal tissue, it is noted that these cells lines are still available to purchase on-line today:
