The pneumococcal shot that tries to prevent pneumonia was not included in the original 1984 version of the book. That’s because it wasn’t on the childhood immunization schedule back then, but it is now. It’s called PCV13 which stands for Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine for 13 antigens. The CDC recommends putting this into a child 4 times. Once at 2 months of age, again at 4 months, then at 6 months, and again between 12 and 15 months. Why so many times, you may ask, if it actually worked the first time? Because the antibodies resulting from the shot don’t last very long, and the implied protection is supposed to be in those antibodies.
There is no protection of infection in these serum antibodies. They can only react to a subsequent infection by binding to the protein antigens on the surface of the bacteria AFTER it has infected you. So, the CDC wants to keep those antibody titers high, to react to infections. As mentioned earlier, it is the MEMORY to quickly remake antibodies that is most important, not the actual numbers of them circulating. So, every time you subject your child to this shot to make more antibodies, you are subjecting them to possible adverse reactions. And what could those reactions be? Here’s the link to the package insert for Prevnar 13 made by Wyeth: https://www.fda.gov/media/107657/download Look at the severe adverse reactions section and you will see that 8.2% of infants and toddlers got serious adverse reactions ranging from pneumonia (the thing it’s trying to prevent) to 4 deaths that were blamed on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
I encourage all parents that are thinking about sticking a needle into their child; please download and read the package insert. This particular insert has a couple of things in it that should raise a red flag. Look at section 2.1 for preparation of the vaccine. It needs to be vigorously shaken to mix up the toxic aluminum phosphate adjuvant. If this is not done, your child could get a highly toxic blast of it, the consequences according to some studies is tied to autism. The mixture must look a certain way to the nurse or pharmacist before it is injected, or it is to be discarded. When the plunger is pushed, the tip of the needle must be intramuscular only, not residing in vasculature. These requirements are completely out of your control, so how lucky is your child? Look in the warnings sections and you will see that children who are immunocompromised should not get the shot. Yet, some idiot physicians out there will say that children who are most susceptible are the ones who should be injected.
Like the shots discussed in the last few sections in Chapter 5, this is a living organism we are dealing with, not a nonliving virus particle. When we are talking about living organisms that may be associated with symptoms in some people, we must consider a few things.
First, is it part of the normal flora, present in most people without any problems whatsoever? For this organism, Streptococcus pneumoniae, the answer is yes. Again, the organism is never the cause of the disease symptoms. When the immune system becomes compromised or weakened, the organism might become an issue, leading to symptoms. Which leads to the second thing to be considered: How can this organism begin to affect a person?
The bacterium needs to make its way from the upper respiratory tract, where it can be found normally, deep into the lungs. Normal healthy people have strong defense mechanisms that prevent this from occurring, including mucosal flow toward the throat, mouth, and nose so they can be coughed, sneezed, or spit out into something that can be thrown away, not to a rag strapped to your face all day. Yes, these bacteria have been found colonizing in damp sweaty masks that children were forced to wear, allowing them to rebreathe the bacteria, increasing the chances of them reaching the lungs.
If enough of them reach the lungs, and there are not enough macrophages and dendritic cells there to gobble them up, epithelial damage to the alveoli (air sacs) will occur, allowing fluids to enter the air sacs and now you’ve got pneumonia. This can happen in the immunosuppressed. One of the effects of repeated mRNA covid-19 shots is immunosuppression. Just saying.
What if you do get pneumonia? As mentioned before, the introduction of antibiotics can be lifesaving. Unfortunately, it’s complicated because this bacterium has become resistant to the indiscriminate use of commonly used antibiotics such as beta-lactams, macrolides, and tetracyclines.
The idea of this shot protecting you from severe symptoms, is to create antibodies against 13 proteins that are found on the surfaces of the bacteria. The hope is that these antibodies will bind to and mark the bacteria for destruction by white blood cells AFTER you get infected. But wait; your body was designed to prevent infections from happening in the first place. It does this without using antibodies by T-cell recognition of antigens. This recognition will signal white blood cells called macrophages to engulf and destroy the bacteria prior to infection.
Knowing this, the vaccine manufacturers want to try to stimulate that T-cell recognition. But just like in the Hib shot that used only the proteins on the bacterial surface, this procedure did not give them the T-cell response they were looking for. So, they added the supposedly nontoxic toxoid from the diphtheria bacterium to get a T-cell response. This process is called conjugation, hence the name Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine.
So, do the antibodies created by this shot prevent a person from developing pneumonia? That depends on how long the trial goes for. As we’ve already discussed, some trial participants develop symptoms after the trials end, driving efficacy numbers lower, and they don’t want you to see that. The more important question we should be asking is, does it prevent severe disease and death? In the trials referenced in the above link to the package insert for Prevnar 13, search for the word “death”. You will see that within 28 days of the injection, 10 people in the Prevnar group died and 10 people in the placebo group died. From 29 days to 6 months, 166 died in the Prevnar group and 144 died in the placebo group. Looking out 4 years, 3006 died in the Prevnar group and 3005 died in the placebo group. So, you tell me.
Thank you so much for your valuable information on the vaccines. It’s very informative but scary as hell at the same time. If I only knew what I know now my kids and grandkids would have never gotten any vaccines.
All this is just a cash cow, isn't it?
Playing on how much people care for their children?
Do it, vax now or everyone will hate you and your kids might die and it will all be your fault.
It is a better money making scheme than dealing crack in 1985
