The 'forgotten history' of vaccines and disease
Generally accepted as 'true', without much thought, healthcare professionals (and the general public) believe that vaccinations are one of the most important medical innovations of the 20th century. Vaccine advocates point to the decline in death rates, throughout the 20th century, as proof of vaccine 'value' without taking into account improved social conditions - including basic hygiene habits.
Take, for example the polio vaccine - which is widely-regarded as one of the most 'successful' vaccines ever created. From 1923 - 1953, before the Salk vaccine for polio, death from polio - in the United States and England - was down 47 and 55 percent, respectively. In addition, scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, typhus, typhoid, cholera, plus many other illnesses - for which there were no vaccines at the time - saw a reduction in occurrence and death rates, all due to better living conditions.
By the way, the 'wonderful' polio vaccine carried the deadly (cancer-causing) Simian Virus #40. Yet, vaccine advocates will shamelessly advise us not to look at the facts. To add insult to injury, most people have been kept 'in the dark' about the incredible work of Frederick Klenner, M.D. - who cured 60 out of 60 cases of polio with high-dose vitamin C therapy.

I hear almost every day of those that have an adverse effect to them.
