Original Antigenic Sin

This book can be viewed or downloaded from the Internet Archive

I've just finished reading Suzanne Humphries book about the history of vaccination. The book really conveyed the awful living and working conditions that working people endured in the nineteenth century that allowed diseases like measles, diphtheria and whooping cough to take such a heavy toll of the population. Here is the Amazon review:

Not too long ago, lethal infections were feared in the Western world. Since that time, many countries have undergone a transformation from disease cesspools to much safer, healthier habitats. Starting in the mid-1800s, there was a steady drop in deaths from all infectious diseases, decreasing to relatively minor levels by the early 1900s. The history of that transformation involves famine, poverty, filth, lost cures, eugenicist doctrine, individual freedoms versus state might, protests and arrests over vaccine refusal, and much more. Today, we are told that medical interventions increased our lifespan and single-handedly prevented masses of deaths. But is this really true? Dissolving Illusions details facts and figures from long-overlooked medical journals, books, newspapers, and other sources. Using myth-shattering graphs, this book shows that vaccines, antibiotics, and other medical interventions are not responsible for the increase in lifespan and the decline in mortality from infectious diseases. If the medical profession could systematically misinterpret and ignore key historical information, the question must be asked, “What else is ignored and misinterpreted today?” Perhaps the best reason to know our history is so that the worst parts are never repeated.

Of course I'd heard before that vaccines, antibiotics, and other medical interventions are not responsible for the increase in lifespan and the decline in mortality from infectious diseases but this book confirms the reality of that in meticulous detail. The author also introduced me to the term original antigenic sin explained by Wikipedia as follows:

Original antigenic sin, also known as the Hoskins effect, refers to the propensity of the body's immune system to preferentially utilise immunological memory based on a previous infection when a second slightly different version of that foreign entity (e.g. a virus or bacterium) is encountered. This leaves the immune system "trapped" by the first response it has made to each antigen, and unable to mount potentially more effective responses during subsequent infections. The phenomenon of original antigenic sin has been described in relation to influenza virus, dengue fever, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and to several other viruses.

The vaccination process is so unnatural that the body's immune response to later exposure to viruses in the wild is impaired, thus accounting for the increased vulnerability of the vaccinated population. This idea was quite new to me whereas previously I'd thought that the vaccination process itself was valid and that any problems were the result of adjuvants and other foreign material.

The response of vaccine developers to the problems caused by original antigenic sin is to modify and enhance the vaccines, not to question the efficacy of the vaccination process itself. Big Medicine and Big Pharma have too much invested in the vaccination industry to abandon it now. It's encouraging that Suzanne Humphries is a qualified medical doctor so the criticism is coming from within the profession. Here is an excerpt from her website:

Dr Humphries is a conventionally educated medical doctor who was a participant in conventional hospital systems from 1989 until 2011 as an internist and nephrologist.  She left her conventional hospital position in good standing, of her own volition in 2011. Since then, she’s been furthering her research into the medical literature on vaccines, immunity, history, and functional medicine.

I've discovered that she has a YouTube channel with 40 videos uploaded so far. Interestingly, the view count for her videos seems ridiculously low. For example, her most recent video from two weeks ago has 40 views according to the thumbnails but 130 views once you actually click on the video. Here's the video: NOW TAKEN DOWN BY YOUTUBE

Suzanne Humphries has written an autobiography titled Rising From The Dead and I've read the Amazon preview but not yet the entire book. It's a very interesting read. Here is an excerpt from it:

A Lot of Hot Air

UK weather: Blistering heatwaves and tropical storms to last four years with 'abnormally hot' air until 2022

So touted the Mirror headline of an article from the 15th August 2018 edition. The news article was based on new research by a team led by Dr Florian Sevellec, of the University of Southampton. Brazenly she said: “Warming caused by greenhouse gas is not linear. It appears to have lapsed in the early 21st century". So wait a minute, she concedes that global warming has "lapsed" since the new century began eighteen years ago.

One might hope that this would have prompted the good doctor to review her assumption that the world is in fact warming. No way! She confidently asserts:

"A new method for predicting mean temperatures, however, suggests the next few years will be hotter than expected.” The system, developed with French and Dutch researchers, uses a statistical method to search 20th and 21st century climate simulations, find similarities to current conditions and then make forecasts.

Apparently, the "lapse" is now over and this new statistical technique ensures that from now on the world will be warming again. At least until 2022! No doubt her research was well funded by the usual interested parties and her academic career will benefit because the results obtained using this new technique support the current climate orthodoxy of relentless global warming.

This is "climate science" in the early 21st century and Dr Florian Sevellec would be regarded as an expert climate scientist. Where is the science in all of this? She admits that the globe has not warmed during the opening years of the new century and then she uses a new and clearly as yet unproven statistical technique to predict what will happen over the coming few years, based on "climate simulations"!

All that most readers will remember is that the next four years are going to be "abnormally hot". Even if they're not, I'm sure climate experts like Dr Sevellec won't be phased. They'll explain it away as a "protracted and atypical lapse" before the warming begins in earnest. They'll go off and tweak their statistical tools to take account of unforeseen variables and then reassure us that the next eight years are going to feel like a "furnace".

It's sad to see presumably intelligent scientists like Dr Sevellec abandoning the scientific method and making unfounded claims about the coming "blistering heat waves and tropical storms". It seems that all climate scientists must worship at the anthropogenic global warming branch of the Church of Climatology.

The Khazars

The following comment to a video I watched caught my attention:

Satanism is based on Rabbinical Talmudism, a Babylonian Magick of biblical Pharisees, worship of Baal, Baphomet etc., the basis for Judaism, doctrine Jesus Christ railed against. Jews are not the biblical Hebrews they claim to be. They are impostors who inverted reality and inserted themselves into biblical stories. They are Khazars.

The comment came with a link attached to a blog post in The Times of Israel, dated March 18th 2014. The post has this header:

Leaked report: Israel acknowledges Jews in fact Khazars; Secret plan for reverse migration to Ukraine 

It then goes to say that:

It is well known that, sometime in the eighth to ninth centuries, the Khazars, a warlike Turkic people, converted to Judaism and ruled over a vast domain in what became southern Russia and Ukraine. What happened to them after the Russians destroyed that empire around the eleventh century has been a mystery. Many have speculated that the Khazars became the ancestors of Ashkenazi Jews. 

Arabs have long cited the Khazar hypothesis in attempts to deny a Jewish historical claim to the land of Israel. During the UN debate over Palestine Partition, Chaim Weizmann responded, sarcastically: “lt is very strange. All my life I have been a Jew, felt like a Jew, and I now learn that I am a Khazar.” In a more folksy vein, Prime Minister Golda Meir famously said:  “Khazar, Schmazar. There is no Khazar people. I knew no Khazars In Kiev. Or Milwaukee. Show me these Khazars of whom you speak.” 

Contrarian Hungarian ex-communist and scientist Arthur Koestler brought the Khazar hypothesis to a wider audience with The Thirteenth Tribe (1976), in the hope that disproving a common Jewish “racial” identity would end antisemitism. Clearly, that hope has not been fulfilled. Most recently, left-wing Israeli historian Shlomo Sand’s The Invention of the Jewish People took Koestler’s thesis in a direction he had not intended, arguing that because Jews were a religious community descended from converts they do not constitute a nation or need a state of their own. 

Scientists, however, dismissed the Khazar hypothesis because the genetic evidence did not add up. Until now. In 2012, Israeli researcher Eran Elhaik published a study claiming to prove that Khazar ancestry is the single largest element in the Ashkenazi gene pool. Sand declared himself vindicated, and progressive organs such as Haaretz and The Forward trumpeted the results. 

Israel seems finally to have thrown in the towel. A blue-ribbon team of scholars from leading research institutions and museums has just issued a secret report to the government, acknowledging that European Jews are in fact Khazars.

So it would seem that the Khazar hypothesis has been accepted even by the Israelis. The references at the beginning of my post to the Talmud and Babylon reminded me of two videos (Meet the Rothschilds' Bosses 1 and 2) that I watched recently that were posted by an Israeli woman named Doreen Dotan. This is the link to her YouTube channel. She claims that it was the Jews who stayed behind in Babylon, after their exile to that region, who are responsible for the Talmud and the worship of Babylonian deities. She claims this group and their descendants have perverted Judaism.

All this is confusing of course to someone with little knowledge of the history of Judaism. There is an article in Wikipedia about the Babylonian Talmud. Here is an excerpt:

The Babylonian Talmud (Talmud Bavli) consists of documents compiled over the period of Late Antiquity (3rd to 5th centuries). During this time the most important of the Jewish centres in Mesopotamia, a region called "Babylonia" in Jewish sources and later known as Iraq, were Nehardea, Nisibis (modern Nusaybin), Mahoza (al-Mada'in, just to the south of what is now Baghdad), Pumbedita (near present-day al Anbar Governorate), and the Sura Academy, probably located about 60 km south of Baghdad.  

Of course there is the Jerusalem Talmud and lots more to make sense of. It's best that I read the following book that I have on my Kindle:

After doing that, I should have a better overview of Jews and Judaism. I'm sure that there won't be much mention of Satanism and its connection to Radical Talmudism but at least I'll have a foundation from which to explore further. The takeaway from all this is that terms like Jew and Judaism are not straightforward. When combined with Zionism and Israel, things become more complex still. I realise I know very little.

Flat Earth

A May 22nd 2018 post by Harry T Dyer, a lecturer in Education at the University of East Anglia, on the website The Conversation was titled I watched an entire Flat Earth Convention for my research – here’s what I learnt. It was a refreshingly thoughtful article as evinced by this declaration early on in the post:

Let me begin by stating quickly that I’m not really interested in discussing if the earth if flat or not (for the record, I’m happily a “globe earther”) – and I’m not seeking to mock or denigrate this community. What’s important here is not necessarily whether they believe the earth is flat or not, but instead what their resurgence and public conventions tell us about science and knowledge in the 21st century.

Importantly, he makes the critical observation that:

While flat earthers seem to trust and support scientific methods, what they don’t trust is scientists, and the established relationships between “power” and “knowledge”. This relationship between power and knowledge has long been theorised by sociologists. By exploring this relationship, we can begin to understand why there is a swelling resurgence of flat earthers. 

He concludes by saying:

In many ways, a public meeting of flat earthers is a product and sign of our time; a reflection of our increasing distrust in scientific institutions, and the moves by power-holding institutions towards populism and emotions. In much the same way that Foucault reflected on what social outcasts could reveal about our social systems, there is a lot flat earthers can reveal to us about the current changing relationship between power and knowledge. And judging by the success of this UK event – and the large conventions planned in Canada and America this year – it seems the flat earth is going to be around for a while yet. 

The post is well worth a full read. The author notes that, while the Internet has led to an unprecedented sharing of ideas and information, it is by no means conducive to consensus. On the contrary, it is promoting polarisation as various, competing interest groups strive to make themselves heard and garner support for their causes. What I'd like to add in this post is that such interest groups are highly susceptible to infiltration and manipulation by parties that are not "true believers" and have their own agenda.

The flat earthers are perfect in a way because they outrage of the scientific community and amuse most of the rest of us who choose to believe that the Earth is a globe. By first aligning with the flat earth community and then broadening their scope to include other issues such as questioning manmade global warming, certain parties can "contaminate" these other issues. It can then be said that those who question the reality of manmade global warming also believe in a flat Earth. Many would assume that, since the latter is absurd in their opinion, so too is the former. It's just one of the ways in which the power elite can undermine and derail legitimate concerns about all sort of issues including climate change, fluoridation, vaccination, banking and significant historical events.

I'm certainly sympathetic to the flat earthers and agree with their deep suspicions about the scientific establishment. If NASA says the Earth is a globe, why should this organisation be believed? This is the organisation that claims to have landed men on the Moon almost fifty years ago! Scientists in general have been forced to compromise their commitment to the scientific method in order to get ahead in their chosen fields. They have to adhere to the prevailing orthodoxy or risk professional stagnation, ostracism and even expulsion. Climatologists who don't support "the truth" of anthropogenic global warming will soon find themselves "out in the cold" if I can be allowed a pun. There is no funding for studies that challenge this orthodoxy.

The flatearthers are going back to the basics and questioning everything they have ever been told. This of course is always a good idea. They choose not to accept that the earth is a globe simply because NASA and other scientific institutions say that it is. Photographs and videos showing the curvature of the Earth can be easily faked in the same way that the Moon landings were. However, the polarisation around the question of whether the Earth is flat is essentially a distraction, diverting attention away from the key issue of how power is shaping knowledge. The ruling elite choose to remain largely in the background but its members control global finance and wield enormous power through the banking system, mainstream media, political structures, multinational organisations and scientific institutions. This tiny percentage of the world's population, controlling most of the world's wealth, is cleverly shaping what it thinks we should know.

The elite has an agenda that it intends to implement and we, by taking sides over this or that issue (flat Earth, vaccinations, global warming or whatever), are unwittingly abetting it by diverting our energy and attention from THE BIG ISSUE. This issue is the need to become aware of how our knowledge of the world is being shaped by powerful people who don't have our best interests at heart. These people could have promoted peace over war, economic equality over disparity, health over an illness industry but they chose not to do so. It is important to focus on who "they" are, discovering what agenda they are pursuing and what agencies they are using to implement it.

As I said earlier, the flatearthers are going right back to basics and questioning the nature of the very ground on which they are standing. They believe they are standing on a flat Earth. They may be right. Right or not however, they are reclaiming power for themselves and reevaluating what they've been told is true. They are redefining their knowledge using this new power. For too long, humans have willingly relinquished their power to others: religious leaders, politicians, demagogues, false prophets, scientists, charlatans, doctors or whoever. There are a very few who manage to reclaim all their power, attaining when they do access to infinite power and infinite knowledge while experiencing infinite bliss. The knowledge attained is true gnosis and not knowledge of the phenomenal world. For the rest of us, we must try to reclaim what power we can and thus add to our store of what we know to be true: our gnosis or knowledge of spiritual mysteries.

Humanity is increasing its knowledge of the Earth and its place in the universe but this does not come for the most part with any commensurate understanding. To say the stars and planets are shards of a shattered unity that eludes our understanding sounds nonsensical to most scientists and yet it is closer to the truth than our current cosmological conceptions. With increasing personal power comes increasing gnosis, knowledge of what is and what we know to be true. It is not knowledge that has been given to us or that we have acquired from someone or somewhere. It is endogenous. Our intellect cannot help us to attain it and is in fact the biggest impediment to gnosis. For flatearthers, belief in a flat earth may be a rite of passage, replacing a sense of disempowerment with one of empowerment. It may be a first step in disengaging from a reliance on outside parties to define what is to be believed.

I choose to believe in an Earth that is a sphere, albeit not a perfect one. My long time practice of Astrology, a subject virulently attacked by scientists who often have no idea what they're even attacking, inclines me to accept that we are indeed on a large ball spinning on its axis as it revolves around a much larger, luminous ball called the Sun. It's not that I'm right and the flatearthers are wrong. Ultimately, all such knowledge about the workings of the Universe is illusory and has nothing to do with gnosis. We all need to reclaim our personal power in our own way. The Flat Earth is a way for some but not for others.

Welcome to the Future

The following excerpt from a news article on news.com.au is a chilling reminder of the coming New World Order where everybody must toe the line or face the consequences.

The maker of an anti-vaccination “documentary” to be aired in seven secret locations has cancelled her tour to Australia because her visa application wasn’t determined in time. This might be welcome news to Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt, who has slammed British journalist Joan Shenton’s controversial film, Sacrificial Virgins, ahead of its launch in Australia on Thursday. The anti-vaccination film opposes the Gardasil vaccine, claims that human papillomavirus (HPV) it protects against does not cause cervical cancer and that the vaccine can cause “neurological damage”.  Mr Hunt says that’s rubbish, and the film spreads “false and reckless” claims. Gardasil is administered free in Australia to boys and girls aged 10 and over as part of the National Immunisation Program and government’s cancer prevention program. “The science is in and the medical experts advice is absolute — vaccinations save lives and protect lives and they are an essential part of a healthy society,” Mr Hunt told Fairfax when the Australia launch of the film was announced. “I have no time for the false and reckless claims made by anti-vaxxers and I will continue call out their dangerous claims.”

Of course gutless politicians can be expected to always toe the line and Greg Hunt is no exception as he sums up the party line quite nicely:

The science is in and the medical experts advice is absolute — vaccinations save lives and protect lives and they are an essential part of a healthy society.

Despite the massive fuckups of the past that can be attributed to "medical experts", the "science is in" and must be believed. Failure to do so will have consequences if you have a public profile like Joan Shenton. For example, other countries may refuse you a visa.

Criticism of Israel can also jeopardise entry into Australia for non-Australians. China of course is in the vanguard when it comes to restricting travel access as it does so within the borders of its own country for those who have sufficient demerit points. This is a practice that other governments are only too eager to adopt, if they can get away with it. It may not be long before an Australian citizen who is a vocal critic of vaccinations may not be allowed to travel by plane from Brisbane to attend an anti-vaccination rally in let's say Melbourne. 

Once the cashless society is implemented, fines will doubtlessly be applied to those who don't toe the line. Spreading false news about the dangers of vaccination on social media or via a blog (like this one) may attract a warning for a first notification together with a demand that the offending post be removed. Failure to do so will attract a fine and heavier fines or even imprisonment may apply for future offences. Alternatively, social media outlets or blog hosting sites will be shut down. 

Expressing opposition to the prevailing orthodoxy, such as all vaccinations are safe or Israel is serious about striving for peace in the Middle East, adversely affects career prospects even now and in the future this can only get worse. Vocal critics can be assured that career advancement will slow and finally stall.

In the meantime, Joan Shenton will be present remotely:

The planned screenings in the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Byron Bay area and Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane will still go ahead, with Ms Shenton appearing via video link. Promoters will not divulge the exact locations of the screenings. They will remain secret until ticket-holders are told what the venue is two hours before the 30-minute film starts.

I guess the exact locations must be kept secret or else pressure would be brought to bear on hosting locations to rescind their authorisation to hold meetings.

Crohn's Disease

 "In Germany, it is estimated that one to two in 1,000 people suffer from Crohn's disease.

The number of Crohn's disease cases is increasing worldwide," Atreya said. "You could say that it has changed from a disease of the western world to a global disease. Crohn's disease now exists in countries where it has not been described before." 

Genetic predisposition and environmental influences play a role in the development of Crohn's disease. In addition to that, there's the influence of the microbiome, which is the totality of microorganisms that colonise us and our stomach and intestines. 

"The interaction of these factors ultimately leads to the immune system overreacting in the intestine, and this is how these inflammations occur," Atreya explained. 

This was an excerpt from DW and the date is 11.07.2018. Atreya has been the senior physician at the Heisenberg Professor of Immunology for Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg since 2016. The statistic is insane: at least one person in a thousand in Germany is afflicted by this crippling digestive disorder. The numbers of those afflicted are growing worldwide.

Tellingly, Atreya observed that:

"More is happening in this area than ever before. We expect more and hopefully better drugs to come onto the market."

The two keywords in the above quote are drugs and market. The pharmaceutical companies fund research for the development of new drugs to combat this scourge and hopefully some will find their way into the marketplace. These drugs will of course produce side effects but further drugs can be developed to combat these. It's madness but that is the state of modern medicine's approach to the management of chronic diseases like Crohn's. My previous post discussed Forrest Maready's book "Crooked" in which he has this to say about the disease:

Your body contains a few areas of specialised lymph tissue that provide an early warning for your immune system. Some of this tissue surrounds your tonsils and adenoids and because they tend to hold a lot of white blood cells, they will also accumulate aluminium. 

Peyer’s patches are kind of like the tonsils and adenoids of the gut — they help the immune system identify invaders in your intestine. Multiple studies have confirmed that aluminium tends to accumulate in this particular area. This is significant because Peyer’s patches are located in the terminal ileum — the same location from which Crohn’s disease nearly always originates.

Could the fact that Crohn's disease now exists in countries where it has not been described before be due to the increasing frequency of vaccinations containing aluminium in these countries? This hypothesis of course will never be tested because it would be an admission of doubt, an acknowledgment that perhaps vaccines can be harmful. Instead, modern medicine will battle a bewildering array of disorders: autism, attention deficit disorder, autoimmune diseases, Alzheimers and so on, some or all of which may well be man-made: a result of a cruel rite of passage that treats babies and infants as pin-cushions in the pursuit of pharmaceutical profits.

This is in spite of concerns being raised within medical circles about the link between the aluminium as an adjuvant in vaccines and the development of Crohn's disease. This is an abstract from a 2012 paper:

Alum (AlK(SO(4))(2)) is an adjuvant commonly utilized in vaccines, and is a ubiquitous element used extensively in contemporary life. Food, air, water, waste, the earth's surface, and pharmaceuticals all represent pathways of aluminum (Al) exposure. Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic relapsing intestinal inflammation in genetically susceptible individuals and is caused by yet unidentified environmental factors. Al is a potential factor for the induction of inflammation in CD, and its immune activities share many characteristics with the immune pathology of CD: many luminal bacterial or dietary compounds can be adsorbed to the metal surface and induce Th1 profile cytokines, shared cytokines/chemokines, co-stimulatory molecules, and intracellular pathways and stress-related molecular expression enhancement, affecting intestinal macrobiota, trans-mural granuloma formation, and colitis induction in an animal CD model. The inflamation plays a central role in Al mode of action and in CD pathophysiology. It is suggested that Al adjuvant activity can fit between the aberrations of innate and adaptive immune responses occurring in CD. The CD mucosa is confronted with numerous inappropriate bacterial components adsorbed on the Al compound surface, constituting a pro-inflammatory supra-adjuvant. Al fits the diagnostic criteria of the newly described autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants. If a cause and effect relationship can be established, the consequences will greatly impact public health and CD prevention and management.

The last sentence is the most telling: If a cause and effect relationship can be established, the consequences will greatly impact public health and CD prevention and management. Despite the gap of six years since that abstract was written, it would seem that a cause and effect relationship is yet to be established. If all this does not seem crazy enough, then the following story takes the madness even further:

Professor John Hermon-Taylor of St. George’s Hospital, London, has developed a vaccination which targets MAP (Mycobaterium avium paratuberculosis) found in animals and passed into the food chain. Professor Hermon-Taylor believes that the pathogen MAP is the cause of 80% of the cases of Crohn’s disease, based on the fact that most individuals with Crohn’s tested positively for MAP. 

The Crohn’s vaccine has been tested on animals and plans exist to start human trials. The vaccine would target current sufferers of Crohn’s disease, by stimulating their bodies to rid themselves of MAP. More than 100,000 people suffer with Crohn’s disease in the UK. 

Hav Vaccines, LTD, began in 2009, is developing the vaccine which will be available for current Crohn’s sufferers along with those considered to be at high risk for developing Crohn’s disease. The phase 2 trials are predicted to be completed by January 8th, 2018.

The story from which the quote is taken however, is highly critical of this medical initiative:

While the intent of the researcher may be honourable, it is highly debatable whether another vaccination is the answer for this serious disease. 

Vaccinations have in fact been blamed for causing autoimmune disorders including Crohn’s disease. It makes little sense to use a vaccine to target a disease caused by vaccines. Crohn’s disease is a progressive, life-threatening illness correlated with gut dysbiosis and inflammation of the intestines.

It will be interesting to find out if this vaccine contains any aluminium adjuvant. It's fairly clear that this medical circus is not going anywhere except round and round. Meanwhile the vaccines containing aluminium adjuvants are still being administered to the young, the old and those in between, and more are planned.

Are You Crooked?

Following on from my last post about damage caused by vaccines, I came across a lengthy but fascinating video titled Are You Crooked?

The video is 2 hours and 15 minutes in duration but it certainly held my attention. The creator, Forrest Maready, focuses on the damage caused by Aluminium, used as an adjuvant in vaccines, and claims that white blood cells recognise this metal as a foreign substance and attack it. However, because it's not a bacteria, virus, protozoa or the like, the white blood cells cannot destroy it but it remains attached. The white cells travel to sites in the body where there is inflammation and in a vaccinated person this means that toxic aluminium arrives as well. 

He draws attention to the lymphatic system and the fact that it is divided into two very differently sized regions as shown below:

He then goes on to note that three out of the four injection sites are on the left side of the body, drained by the throacic duct (see diagram below):

The facial asymmetry that he is drawing our attention to is caused in his opinion by mild paralysis that affects the left side far more than the right. The resulting lop-sided smile is characterised by right side UP and left side DOWN because the facial muscles related to smiling are working properly on the right side but not the left. His suspicion is that this is a consequence of the greater amount of aluminium introduced by injections to those parts of the body drained by the thoracic duct as opposed to the lymphatic duct.

He identifies the cranial nerves as being particularly targeted by white blood cells during the vaccination process. In the diagram below, we see the nerves branching out from the brain stem.

Here is another view of the cranial nerves in relation to other named parts of the brain stem:

He identifies certain nerves as being associated with certain impairments when damaged by aluminium toxicity (the general area is known as the dorsal vagal complex):

 The vagus nerve has the following function:

The Dorsal Vagal Complex signals for help during the vaccination process (see below):

The more the infant or child is disturbed by the vaccination process, the more likely there is to be damage to the Dorsal Vagal Complex. He suggests it is the restraint and pain associated with the vaccination process that is the major cause of the damage to the infant. If vaccinations were delayed until the child knew what was happening, Forrest Maready claims the potential damage would be much reduced.

He also makes mention of the Polyvagal Theory of Stephen Porges that claims that there are two responses to threat: one is the well-known "fight or flight" and the other is the lesser known "play dead". The latter is also characterised as "tend and befriend" which seems a little contradictory but clearly I'll need to investigate the Polyvagal Theory further. What's relevant about it here, according to Forrest Maready is that boys tend to favour the former while girls favour the latter. The former produces more damage from aluminium toxicity and may be the reasons that autism is more common in boys than girls (various studies, together with anecdotal evidence have come up with men/women ratios ranging from 2:1 to 16:1. Source).

Forrest Maready is quick to point out that his ideas, arrived at after two years or so of investigation, are only theories and need to be validated by science. However, it is unlikely that there will be any scientific studies undertaken along these lines given that pharmaceutical companies provide most of the funds for medical research. It's only by accident that opportunities sometimes arise as when broad surveys are taken that include information about vaccinations or the lack thereof. Inadvertently, this provides researchers with an opportunity to compare a vaccinated group of people with an unvaccinated group. Andrew Moulden also identifies aluminium as the source of probems associated with vaccination but posits a different mechanism for the damage, one that involves altered zeta potentials (see this link for more information).

The point in common for both theories however, is that aluminium that is injected into the body via vaccinations is not eliminated, unlike aluminium that is ingested via food. In Maready's theory, the aluminium is faithfully delivered via the white blood cells to any areas of inflammation and may help account for problems later in life such as rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, Alzheimer's and suchlike.
