This trickery is not new. It had been used for well over a century with smallpox. The myth continues to this day.
On CHS we wrote previously almost how unscientific the claim is that smallpox was eradicated past vaccination when that frankly is nonsense scientifically. The demise of the disease came almost as a outcome of the interaction of three completely unlike factors: isolation, attenuation and improved living weather condition, peculiarly nutrition and sanitation. The consequence cannot be attributable to the smallpox vaccine – any vaccine which takes over 100 years to piece of work ipso facto proves itself non to take:

SMALLPOX MORTALITY- UK, Us & SWEDEN
In the graphs below observe the large numbers of deaths acquired by the smallpox vaccine itself. By 1901 in the UK, more people died from the smallpox vaccination than from smallpox itself. The severity of the disease dimished with improved living standards and was non vanquished by vaccination, as the medical "consensus" view tells us. Any vaccine which takes 100 years to "work" did not. On whatsoever scientific analysis of the history and data, crediting smallpox vaccine for the refuse in smallpox appears misplaced.
When during 1880-1908 the City of Leicester in England stopped vaccination compared to the remainder of the United kingdom and elsewhere, its survival rates soared and smallpox decease rates plummeted [meet table below]. Leicester'due south approach also toll far less.

Vaccination: A Mythical History ~ by Roman Bystrianyk and Suzanne Humphries Doctor
– August 27, 2013
With the approaching flu flavour and the enthusiastic calls to use the influenza vaccine, you might exist wondering where the idea of vaccination got its start. Where did the idea of injecting whole or bits of microbes and other substances into people in an try to provide protection against contagious illness brainstorm?
Many medical and history books present a simple tale of the origin of vaccination. Nearly present the same basic tale of the bright observation of a simple state dr. and his courage in attempting to thwart a deadly and frightening disease of that time – smallpox, or every bit it was often called the speckled monster. In a recent and pop book, The Panic Virus, the author reiterates this classic tale.
In 1796, Jenner enlisted a milkmaid named Sarah Nelmes and an eight-year quondam boy named James Phipps to test his theory. Jenner transferred pus from Nelmes's cowpox blisters onto incisions he'd fabricated in Phipps'due south hands. The boy came down with a slight fever, but cypher more. Later, Jenner gave Phipps a standard smallpox inoculation – which should take resulted in a full-blown, albeit mild, case of the disease. Nix happened. Jenner tried inoculating Phipps with smallpox again; again, nothing. [i]
Edward Jenner'southward idea eventually became known every bit vaccination, which is derived from the Latin word for cow – vacca. It was originally referred to every bit cowpoxing, simply eventually the term vaccination was adopted. As the story goes, with this invention in place, smallpox would be tamed and the world would be freed from the terror of the illness.
Such is the stuff of legends. The story is non unlike the classic Greek legends of Theseus defeating the child-devouring Minotaur, or Perseus beheading the mortiferous snake-headed Medusa, or many other classic stories of the brave hero defeating a deadly enemy. The Jenner legend has been reduced to a uncomplicated and memorable story of a hero defeating the mortiferous enemy, smallpox. Authors claim that with vaccination in identify, "billions of lives" have been saved.[2]
Only legendary heroes, particularly those that are used to support a conventionalities, accomplish an iconic status while any unsavory aspects about the hero and the story are ignored or forgotten. Mythical tales are designed to evoke a positive emotional response to influence societal thinking.
The tale of defeating smallpox begins well before the story of our hero. It begins with the concept of using small amounts of smallpox pus and scratching it into the arms of healthy people. This idea was introduced to the Western earth by Lady Mary Wortley Montagu in 1717. She had returned from the Ottoman Empire with noesis of the practice of inoculation against smallpox, known equally variolation. This type of inoculation was simply a matter of infecting a person with smallpox at a time and in a setting of his choosing. The thought behind inoculation was that, in a controlled setting, people would do improve against the disease than if they contracted it at some possibly less desirable time and place in the future.
The idea was embraced by the medical profession and enthusiastically practiced. But because of the complexity and danger involved, inoculation remained an operation that could merely be afforded past the wealthy.[3] The procedure did often assistance protect the private that was inoculated, but there was still an estimated 2-5% that died as a result.[4,5] Still, this was an improvement compared to a twenty-25% bloodshed rate in those that had naturally contracted smallpox during an epidemic.[6] Just, was the difference in bloodshed due to inoculation lone? Or could it have had something to do with the fact that the wealthy had better access to more nutritious food and a cleaner environment than the majority of society?
There was one major and generally unacknowledged drawback to variolation – those inoculated could and did spread smallpox creating more than deaths than there would accept been naturally. In a 1764 article the author recognized that smallpox was a contagious disease and that the exercise of variolation would create new vectors to spread information technology. He compared the smallpox deaths in the 38 years before the introduction of variolation to the 38 years subsequently, and found that smallpox deaths had increased⎯not decreased. He was forced to conclude that variolation on the whole, led to worse problems, because it caused more deaths than lives saved.
It is incontestably similar the plague a contagious illness, what tends to stop the progress of the infection tends to lessen the danger that attends it; what tends to spread the contamination, tends to increment that danger; the practise of Inoculation manifestly tends to spread the contagion, for a contagious illness is produced by Inoculation where it would not otherwise have been produced; the place where it is thus produced becomes a centre of contamination, whence information technology spreads non less fatally or widely than it would spread from a center where the disease should happen in a natural way; these centers of contamination are apparently multiplied very greatly by Inoculation . . .[7]
However, while the popularity of variolation varied, the problem of it spreading smallpox, was largely unrecognized. Considering variolation had get a very lucrative procedure it was enthusiastically continued by almost of the medical profession through the 1700s and into the early 1800s. Smallpox continued to be spread by this medically-sanctioned procedure.
At present enters the hero of our legend. It was rumored among milkmaids that infection with cowpox would protect one from smallpox. In 1796, believing these stories, Edward Jenner performed an experiment on an 8-year-old boy named James Phipps. He took disease matter that he believed to be cowpox from lesions on a dairymaid, Sarah Nelmes, and vaccinated James Phipps with information technology. He subsequently deliberately exposed the kid to smallpox as a test to see if he was protected past the cowpox inoculation. When the boy did non contract clinical smallpox, it was assumed that the technique of vaccination was successful.
In 1798 Jenner published his results claiming lifelong protection against smallpox using his discovery with simply rumors to back up his contention. While he promoted the use of his technique based on the tale that someone infected with cowpox would be immune to smallpox, there were doctors of the fourth dimension who challenged this myth, considering they had seen smallpox follow cowpox. At a meeting of the Medico-Convivial Society, Jenner was ridiculed over his practice.
Just he [Jenner] no sooner mentioned it than they laughed at information technology. The cow doctors could accept told him of hundreds of cases where small-pox had followed cow-pox . . . [8]
From the beginning there were issues with Jenner's process. In 1799, Mr. Drake vaccinated a number of children with cowpox matter obtained from Edward Jenner. The children were so tested by existence inoculated with smallpox to encounter if the cowpox procedure had been effective. All of them developed smallpox, and vaccination failed to protect whatsoever of them. Jenner received the study but decided to ignore the results considering they were not in support of his theory.[ix]
Vaccination was quickly embraced past many in the medical profession as the reply to combating smallpox. Past 1801, an estimated 100,000 people had already been vaccinated in England with the belief that the procedure would produce lifelong protection. The medical community connected to cover Jenner'due south ideas amongst numerous accounts that refuted the theory of vaccination. Early reports indicated that there were cases of people who had cowpox, or were vaccinated, and were still dying of smallpox. Specific cases of cowpox and vaccine failure were reported in the 1809 Medical Observer.
A Child was vaccinated by Mr. Robinson, surgeon and apothecary, at Rotherham, towards the end of the year 1799. A calendar month afterward it was inoculated with small-pox matter without effect, and a few months subsequently took confluent small-pox and died. two. A woman-servant to Mr. Take chances, of Bungay, in Suffolk, had cow-pox in the casual way from milking. Vii years afterwards she became nurse to Yarmouth Infirmary, where she caught small-pox, and died. iii and four. Elizabeth and John Nicholson, three years of age, were vaccinated at Battersea in the summer of 1804. Both contracted pocket-sized-pox in May, 1805 and died . . . 13. The child of Mr. R died of small-scale-pox in Oct 1805. The patient had been vaccinated, and the parents were bodacious of its security. The vaccinator'southward name was concealed. 14. The child of Mr. Hindsley at Mr. Adam'south office . . . died of small-pox a twelvemonth afterwards vaccination.[ten]
Reports through the early on 1800s began to accumulate showing vaccination was not living upward to its hope to protect from smallpox. A written report in 1810 from the Medical Observer noted 535 cases of small-scale-pox after vaccination, 97 fatal cases, and 150 cases of vaccine injuries.[eleven] Notation that 97 deaths out of 535 cases is an xviii% fatality rate and is essentially the aforementioned fatality rate every bit smallpox before vaccination was introduced. This loftier fatality charge per unit along with 150 vaccine-related injuries was a direct challenge to this new and highly lauded medical procedure.
Another article in 1817 reflected the reality of vaccination failure.
. . . the number of all ranks suffering nether Pocket-sized Pox, who accept previously undergone Vaccination by the almost skillful practitioners, is at present alarmingly great.[12]
In 1818 Thomas Brownish, a surgeon with thirty years of experience in Musselburgh, Scotland, published an commodity discussing his experience with vaccination. He stated that he was originally extremely positive in promoting vaccination and that no one in the medical profession "could outstrip me in zeal for promoting vaccine practise." Simply afterward vaccinating one,200 persons, he became disappointed in the hope of vaccination. His experience was that, after vaccination, people however could contract and even die from smallpox, and that he could no longer support the do.[xiii]
Like today, surgeons and doctors of the fourth dimension were amply compensated for performing vaccination and thus had a tendency to embrace it every bit a new course of income. Information technology is therefore quite pregnant for a doctor to have spoken out against it equally Dr. Brown did.
Connected observations showed that smallpox could still infect those who previously had smallpox and that those who were vaccinated could also be infected.
. . . during the years 1820, 1, and, two [1820-1822] there was a great hubbub near the small-pox. Information technology bankrupt out with the corking epidemic to the north . . . It pressed close to home to Dr. Jenner himself . . . It attacked many who had had small-pox before, and frequently severely; nearly to death; and of those who had been vaccinated, it left some solitary, but fell upon nifty numbers.[14]
William Cobbett was a farmer, journalist, and English language pamphleteer. In 1829 he wrote about the failure of vaccination to protect people from smallpox. Cobbett considered vaccination to be an unproven and fraudulent medical practice. He noted that:
. . . hundreds of instances, persons cow-poxed by JENNER HIMSELF, take taken the real small-scale-pox afterwards, and have either died from the disorder, or narrowly escaped with their lives![15]
During this time vaccine material was the "humanized" course, which meant that material was taken from the arm of a previously vaccinated person to vaccinate the next person. Arm-to-arm vaccination connected for decades, but as failures increased at that place was a belief that the vaccine had lost its original supposed potency, and there were calls to obtain fresh material directly from cows.[16]
While the legend maintained that the vaccine material came from cows, Jenner really believed the fabric originated from an infectious condition of horses called the "grease." From this and other beliefs, there were many attempts to recreate an original cow-based vaccine. All these attempts failed.[17] Some believed that cowpox was simply smallpox that was passed through cows and somehow fabricated into a new disease.[eighteen] This faulty belief would upshot in the creation of more smallpox epidemics.
In 1836 in Attenborough, Massachusetts, Dr. John C. Martin took fluid from the pock of a man who died from smallpox and inoculated it onto a moo-cow'due south udder. He then took pus from that cow and used it to vaccinate people. A large smallpox epidemic ensued causing panic and sickness in many people over the subsequent months.[19] A later research determined that this was nothing more than the old practise of smallpox inoculation.[20]
Non simply was vaccination declining and causing smallpox epidemics, but there were also reports of deaths from other causes shortly after vaccination. For example, a skin status called erysipelas was a specially prolonged and painful way to die.
. . . a male child from Somers-town, aged five years, "small-pox confluent, unmodified (9 days)." He had been vaccinated at the historic period of 4 months; 1 cicatrix . . . the wife of a labourer, from Lambeth, aged 22 years, "small-pox confluent, unmodified (8 days)." Vaccinated in infancy in Suffolk; 2 good cicatrices . . . the son of a mariner, aged 10 weeks, and the son of a sugar baker, aged thirteen weeks, died of "general erysipelas after vaccination, effusion of the encephalon."[21]
Because arm-to-arm vaccination was being used, other diseases could be spread causing various epidemics. Infectious diseases attributed to vaccination included tuberculosis and syphilis. In 1863 Dr. Ricord spoke before the University at Paris.
First I rejected the idea that syphilis could be transplanted by vaccination. But facts accumulated more and more, and at present I must concede the possibility of the transfer of syphilis by means of the vaccine. I exercise this very reluctantly. Now I practise not hesitate longer to admit and proclaim the reality of the fact.[22]
Equally it became increasingly articulate throughout the 1800s to more doctors and citizens that vaccination was not what it was promised to exist, refusals increased. In order to deal with this, the judicial system intervened. In 1855, Massachusetts created a prepare of comprehensive laws providing for widespread vaccination.[23]
These laws and compulsory vaccination did nothing to curb the problem of smallpox. Information from Boston that begins in 1811 shows that, starting around 1837, there were periodic smallpox epidemics that culminated in the great 1872 epidemic. Later 1855, in that location were further smallpox epidemics in 1859-60, 1864-65, and 1867 and the infamous epidemic in 1872-73. This was the most severe smallpox epidemic since the introduction of vaccination.[24] These repeat smallpox epidemics showed that the strict vaccination laws instituted by Massachusetts in 1855 had no effect at all (Graph one). In fact, more people died in the 20 years after the strict Massachusetts vaccination compulsory laws than in the twenty years before.
Graph 1: Boston smallpox mortality rate from 1841 to 1880.
By this point, the medical profession no longer claimed lifelong protection against smallpox from a unmarried vaccination. Instead, claims were made that vaccination made smallpox less likely to kill or that smallpox would be milder. Calls were then fabricated for revaccination. Claims were made that revaccination had to exist performed anywhere from yearly to every 10 years.[25]
While the majority of the medical profession supported vaccination, at that place were those that spoke out against the procedure. Dr. Longstaffe, a prominent physician of Edinburgh England noted that huge profits were existence made by vaccinators. Immense financial gain combined with the forcefulness of police created the perfect environs that would impose vaccination upon the citizens of the Western world.
The public vaccinators take received immense sums from Parliament . . . In 1850 alone they amounted to £54,727, and in the nowadays twelvemonth they will get nearly a quarter million. Other sums, also, which I cannot proper noun, have been granted for the purpose of sustaining this monstrous fraud. Has ever a quack remedy produced so much gain?
[26]
In England, governmental control strengthened over the years, with progressively stricter laws designed to enforce vaccination. Laws previously passed in 1840 and 1853 were consolidated into oppressive compulsory laws in 1867 that included fines for parents who did not vaccinate their children. However, through the 1800s, periodic smallpox epidemics continued to occur. A great pandemic struck in 1872 and took the lives of thousands, fifty-fifty those who were vaccinated.
Every recruit that enters the French army is vaccinated. During the Franco-Prussian war there were twenty-3 thousand four hundred and sixty-nine cases of pocket-size-pox in that army. The London Lancet of July 15, 1871 said:
Of 9 g three hundred and 90-two small-pox patients in London hospitals, six thousand 8 hundred and 50-four had been vaccinated. Seventeen and one-half per cent of those attacked died. In the whole country more than than i hundred and twenty-ii thousand vaccinated persons take suffered from modest-pox . . . Official returns from Frg testify that between 1870 and 1885 ane million vaccinated persons died from minor-pox.[27]
Concerns over vaccine safety, effectiveness, and governmental infringement on personal freedom and freedom through compulsory vaccination stoked the fires of the anti-vaccine movement. People began to resist the government and chose to pay fines. Some even accepted imprisonment rather than allowing vaccination for themselves or their children. The public backlash culminated in the not bad sit-in in Leicester England, in 1885. That aforementioned yr Leicester'due south government, which had pushed for vaccination through the use of fines and jail fourth dimension, was replaced with a new government that was opposed to compulsory vaccination. By 1887, the vaccination coverage rates had dropped to 10%.[28]
Instead of relying on vaccination, people began to rely on proper sanitation, quarantine of smallpox patients and thorough disinfection of their homes. They believed this technique was a inexpensive and effective means that eliminated the need for vaccination. Withal, there were dire predictions from the majority of the medical community that strongly endorsed vaccination and believed the depression vaccination rate would effect in a terrible "massacre," especially in the "unprotected" children.[29]
Despite such prophesies of doom from the medical profession, the majority of the town'due south residents were steadfast in their conventionalities that vaccination was not necessary to control smallpox. The prophecy that the Leicester residents would eventually be plagued with disaster never did come up to laissez passer. Depression vaccination rates resulted in lower smallpox rates and deaths, than in well-vaccinated towns.[30] In fact, the lower vaccination rates correlated to an overall decrease in smallpox deaths (Graph ii). Leicester showed that by abandoning vaccination in favor of what became termed as the "Leicester Method," deaths from smallpox were far lower than when vaccination rates were high.
The experience of unvaccinated Leicester is an centre-opener to the people and an centre-sore to the pro-vaccinists the world over. Here is a great manufacturing town having a population of near a quarter of a million, which has demonstrated past a crucial test of an experience extending over a period of more than a quarter of a century, that an unvaccinated population has been far less susceptible to small-pox and far less afflicted by that affliction since it abandoned vaccination than it was at a time when ninety-v per cent of its births were vaccinated and its adult population well re-vaccinated.[31]
While vaccination was oft promoted as a safe procedure, it often caused sickness or even death. From 1859 to 1922 official deaths related to vaccination were more than 1,600 in England (Graph 3). In fact, from 1906 to 1922 the number of deaths recorded from smallpox vaccination and smallpox were approximately the same (Graph 4).

Graph 3: England and Wales total deaths from cowpox and other furnishings of vaccination from 1859 to 1922.
Graph 4: England and Wales smallpox deaths vs. vaccination deaths from 1906 to 1922
At the end of the 1800s, smallpox changed its grapheme. After the summer of 1897, the severe type of smallpox with its loftier death charge per unit, with rare exception, had entirely disappeared from the United States. Smallpox turned from a disease that killed 1 in five of its victims to one that only killed anywhere from i in fifty and later on to as low as 1 in 380. The affliction could still kill, but having become so much milder, it was frequently mistaken for various other pox infections or skin eruptions.
During 1896 a very mild type of smallpox began to prevail in the South and later gradually spread over the country. The mortality was very low and it [smallpox] was usually at starting time mistaken for chicken pox. . .[32]
The author of a 1913 article in The Journal of Infectious Diseases presented a tabular array showing that in 1895 and 1896 the smallpox death charge per unit was around xx%, every bit it had been historically. The tabular array likewise showed that after 1896 the death charge per unit brutal off rapidly, starting with half-dozen% in 1897 to as low as 0.26% past 1908. Every bit the balmy form of smallpox replaced the classic type, smallpox could be difficult to tell from chickenpox, which was, past this time, considered a mild affliction of childhood.
. . . chickenpox, is a pocket-sized communicable illness of childhood, and is chiefly important because it frequently gives rise to difficulty in diagnosis in cases of mild smallpox. Smallpox and chickenpox are sometimes very hard to differentiate clinically.[33]
Past the 1920s it was recognized that the new class of smallpox produced petty in the manner of symptoms, even though few had been vaccinated.
Individual cases, or even epidemics, occur in which, although there has been no protection by vaccination, the course of the disease is extremely mild. The lesions are few in number or entirely absent, and the constitutional symptoms mild or insignificant.[34]
Despite this extremely low vaccine coverage charge per unit, there was never a resurgence of smallpox. Even though smallpox was not a major upshot, the do of smallpox vaccination continued from the time of the final smallpox death in the United States in 1948 upwards until 1963. This resulted in an estimated 5,000 unnecessary vaccine-related hospitalizations from generalized rash, secondary infections, and encephalitis.
A 1958 study detailed the cases of 9 children in which ii died of a peel status due to vaccination, now being termed eczema vaccinatum. The occurrence of this disease was estimated by the authors to be between 1 in 20,000 to 1 in 100,000 with a fatality charge per unit of four to 40%.[35] Still, they acknowledged that most cases were not reported and in that location was no accurate accounting on this consequence of vaccination. There were too an estimated 200 to 300 deaths every bit the result of smallpox vaccination, while during the same time there had only been 1 smallpox death in 1948.[36]
The concluding smallpox decease in the United states of america following an importation occurred in 1948, but since that time in that location have been probably 200 to 300 deaths from smallpox vaccination.[37]
Eczema vaccinatum is still occurring today, as recently noted in the news. A toddler was infected by his war machine father later on the male parent was vaccinated. After a prolonged admission, and a week of experimental treatments including immune globulin from donor claret and antiviral medication, the toddler recovered. The mother likewise required treatment and virus was found all over the house.[38]
Because of poor surveillance and vaccine reaction underreporting, the authors of a 1970 report idea that the number of smallpox vaccine-related deaths could actually have been even college. This report but examined deaths from 1959 to 1968 in the United states. If the deaths were this high in a country with a modern health-care system, what was the total number of deaths from smallpox vaccination from 1800 to the nowadays across the entire earth?
There were those in the medical community who were relieved that the failure of compulsory vaccination never gained much public scrutiny. Instead, the focus was shifted to new types of vaccinations.
Compulsory vaccination which once had the suffrage of the nation has now hardly a serious supporter. We are ashamed to jettison the thought completely and perhaps agape that if we did the blow of some futurity epidemic might put u.s.a. in the wrong. We prefer to permit compulsory vaccination die a natural death and are relieved that the general public is not curious plenty to need an inquest. In the meantime our attending is diverted to other and newer forms of immunisation.[39]
During this time with vaccination every bit near the only medically promoted fashion to bargain with disease, in that location were doctors finding astonishing successes with smallpox using other methods. Vinegar is a common food production that is made through fermentation of a variety of sources. An 1877 commodity described the success that Dr. Roth had using vinegar for smallpox prophylaxis.
D. G. Oliphant, M.D., of Toronto, Canada, having read the article on the use of Acerb acid in scarlet fever, writes of a "vinegar cure" as applied to small pox. Dr. Roth first claimed wonderful success in treatment regarding vinegar more reliable as a prophylactic in small-pox than Belladonna in scarlet fever. Dr. Roth gave both to the sick and to the exposed two table-spoonfuls of vinegar, subsequently breakfast and at evening, for fourteen days. Few persons thus treated took the disease at all. None who adopted the prophylactic treatment died, while among those under ordinary treatment the mortality was as usual.[forty]
In 1899 Dr. Howe also demonstrated vinegar's power to protect a person from acquiring smallpox. Those who used the vinegar protocol were able to accept care of other people with smallpox without fearfulness of contracting the disease. The writer notes that despite several hundred exposures, vinegar was protective against smallpox and was considered an "established fact."[41]
Again, in 1901 professor MacLean promoted the idea of vinegar every bit a real preventative of smallpox. Dr. MacLean claimed that apple tree cider vinegar and no other type of vinegar should be used three or iv times a day to protect a person from contracting smallpox.
J.P. MacLean Ph. D., the renowned "anti" Secretarial assistant of the Western Reserve Historical Club, having readily overthrown the conclusions of all the great men who for a century past take been convinced of the efficacy of vaccination for the prevention of smallpox, now comes to the front in the newspapers with the real preventative. "Whatever person who has been exposed demand have no fear of smallpox if he will accept ii or iii tablespoonfuls of pure cider vinegar three or four times a solar day." The discussion may now be regarded as closed, and smallpox at last is conquered![42]
Apple tree cider vinegar might seem silly, but only because virtually people take been conditioned to accept the age-old prophylaxis for smallpox: raw, disease-laden, contaminated pus scrapings from an infected brute's (usually a moo-cow) belly, diluted in glycerin, and scratched into the human arm with a metal prong until the arm was raw and bleeding. What seems sillier now?
Scurvy is a disease that results from a deficiency of vitamin C due to starvation or just an extremely poor or unbalanced nutrition. Vitamin C is essential for the formation of good for you collagen. Collagen is the protein that forms connective tissue in skin, bones, and blood vessels and also gives support to internal organs. In scurvy, the body is non able to generate adequate collagen or extracellular matrix proteins that serve as mortar holding cells together and, as a effect, literally comes unglued and falls apart.
William A. Guy, dean of the Medical Department of King'due south College, described the poor diet of gilded miners in California in the 1850s. Thousands of miners subsisted on meat, fat, java, and alcohol while working long, difficult days nether the unrelenting California sun. The vitamin C-deficient diet led many to develop scurvy.
Scurvy has been very prevalent among the gilt miners of California . . . the emigrants upon the overland journeys and at the mines, every bit living almost entirely upon fried salary or fatty pork and flour made into batter-cakes, and fried in the fat, which completely saturates information technology. This is washed down with copious librations of strong coffee, and large quantities of brandy or whiskey are taken in the intervals of the meals . . . this has been the diet of thousands for months, under a scorching sun, when the temperature was over a hundred in the shade, the men being at the same time subjected to the about intense labour.[43]
Although many died of cholera during the California Gold Rush of the mid-1800s, an estimated 10,000 men died from scurvy.
During the American Civil State of war twice equally many died from nutritional deficiency related diseases every bit those killed in battle.[44] For instance, the causes of death listed for Indiana soldiers buried at the National Cemetery in Andersonville, Georgia, shows that diarrhea and scurvy straight accounted for at least two-thirds.[45] Dysentery was the side by side mutual cause of death, with the infamous diseases such as smallpox, typhus, pneumonia, and gangrene responsible for only a small fraction. Those who were killed in actual boxing or who died every bit a issue of their wounds accounted only for ane percent of the full deaths.
Other big infectious killers such equally reddish fever, measles, diphtheria, and whooping cough (also known as pertussis) all greatly declined during this time to where they were either completely eliminated or considered balmy childhood illnesses by the mid-1900s. This massive refuse of 99% of deaths in whooping cough and measles occurred before vaccines or antibiotics were available (Graph 5 & 6).

The fairytale legend of a country physician making a discovery that saved the earth from the devastation of smallpox is a fundamental medical conventionalities that continues to be echoed past indoctrinated and naïve doctors whenever vaccines are challenged. Smallpox vaccine, in the minds of medical professionals remains a pillar of their vaccine organized religion. Simply the true history shows u.s. a different reality.
The make name of vaccination was indoctrinated into the world psyche as something to protect someone from an illness. This belief spawned off numerous other ideas using the same notion of injecting whole or parts of disease thing into living beings in attempts to protect them from a specific disease. The reality of vaccination is aught close to the myth.
Other extremely constructive culling methods of sanitation, nutrition, apple cider vinegar, and other solutions were ignored and have since vanished from societal commonage memory. Instead we were left with the mythical history of Jenner's great discovery and the continued onslaught of dangerous vaccines to newborn infants. Vaccines are now a regular thing from cradle to grave, all in the name of supposedly healthier people. Now that the drape has been pulled back on the origins of vaccination, do more and more vaccines seem similar a good idea to you?
More information on the history of vaccination including polio, measles, whooping cough, and lost remedies can be found in Dr Humphries' and Roman Bystrianyk's book "Dissolving Illusions" which can be found on amazon.com
