The following article is a wonderful example of why true knowledge (intrinsic or personal knowledge) is alway superior to blind belief (extrinsic knowledge). In our world of high stress, we feel there is no time to spend on learning things that impact us greatly. Health has become the domain of experts and gurus who claim to have superior knowledge about how the body works; e.g. the Medical Industry. Yet when we look out into our world, when we observe the fruits of this expert advice, we see reality and rhetoric are highly divergent.
Vaccination has been held up as one of the major successes of Allopathic Medicine, and many unquestionably accept this assertion, to the detriment of their health and the health of their loved ones. The following article details a personal account of one Doctor who was brave enough to face the truth, and speak it openly. Dr. Humphries demonstrates that nearly every piece of evidence that is provided as proof of the efficacy of Vaccination, is in fact suspect at best.
Our immune systems are not designed to be injected with vaccines, this is counter to the whole way immunity actually works. Immunity to disease is a function of overall body health. Our ability to become Immunized to a pathogen can occur without direct contact, and is a reflection of our bodies ability to accurately decode it’s environment. This can easily be seen by studying the effect of breast feeding on small children.
A newborn’s immune system is coded for immunity from the mother’s breast milk, which contains the store of her bodies immune knowledge and is passed to the infant via the milk. The baby’s body, the lymph glands, tonsils and stomach identify immune factors within the mothers milk and learn from her, coding the infant’s system with the same immunities. Therefore, the key aspect to immunity is two fold.
1. We need to feed our bodies healthy food in proper balance, as to facilitate the ‘machine’ of the immune system to work harmoniously.
2. We need to expose our immune system to the environment so it can code for the things it encounters. This is how immunity is best acquired.
This is why raw milk and probiotic foods are amazing for the immune system. They contain organisms from the environment, which have their own immune factors that pass through our bodies gateway for immunity – the stomach and digestive tract – literally teaching our bodies about the pathogens in the environment.
Gaining true knowledge, not dependency on expert opinion, is what empowers us. Here is yet one more example of this crucial aspect to life, only with complete knowledge, do we have the skills needed to act, the truth needed to feel like we are co-creating with life, instead of being victims of circumstance.

Last month I read a book that would change my perspective on the vaccination debate. The book is called Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History, written by acclaimed nephrologist Suzanne Humphries.
For anyone involved in the controversial vaccine debate, whether a proponent or opponent, this book is truly invaluable for a few reasons.
The thoroughness of Humphries’s historical research is unlike anything I’ve seen before, a rare book that provides in-depth investigations documenting the medical history related to mass vaccination programs and infectious diseases.
She turned her back on a $300,000 salary to become a low-paid researcher, all because her integrity wouldn’t allow her to turn a blind eye to what she was seeing in her practice.
Suzanne spoke with Dr. Mercola to tell her story as well as what she discovered after years of careful and persistent research.
Why Dr. Humphries Wrote This Book
 |
| Dr. Suzanne Humphries, an acclaimed nephrologist ostracized after her investigations into the history of disease and vaccines. In her book, Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History, she provides massive amounts of historical evidence proving that vaccines can’t be credited with eradicating some of the most well known diseases of our time. |
Prior to 2009, Suzanne Humphries was a well respected, and highly sought after nephrologist working out of Maine.
At the time she considered herself “pro-vaccine,”
“I had vaccinated my dialysis patients; I, myself, was vaccinated; and I pretty much believed what I was taught in medical school,“she says.
But when Suzanne noticed her patients were getting vaccinated before seeing her, she knew something was up.
“My patients were getting vaccinated on their first hospital day before I even saw them, and the order had my name on it,” she says.
After complaining to her administration, she was met with immediate resistance, she explains in her book. This led her to do some research on the widely accepted vaccine intervention. She soon found no medical literature stating it was safe to administer to an acutely ill patient.
“My patients were acutely ill, they had inflammatory diseases, and I didn’t want them vaccinated,” she said.
Because the ‘polio’ and ‘smallpox’ vaccine argument was brought up often (i.e., the vaccines for these diseases eradicated the diseases), she knew she needed to look more into the story to defend her stance.
“In my research, I was startled [to realize] that what I found was completely counter to what I have been told and taught my entire life.The stories are very twisted, long, and complicated, and the vaccines have changed over time. It’s really easy to kind of throw up smokescreens here and there and make whatever argument one might want to, because people are so ignorant and because the story is so complicated.“
The Truth About The Smallpox Vaccine
As she explains in her book, the smallpox (SP) vaccine was developed long before the human immune system was understood.
The vaccine was actually developed based on a rumor circulating among dairy maids. The rumor was that when a dairy maid had been infected with cowpox—which is a common infection on the udder of the cow—she would no longer be susceptible to smallpox.
Hysteria was easily brewed among populations at the time, and this rumour spread quickly. This led Edward Jenner to develop the first SP vaccine.
“Basically, it was made by scraping pus off the belly of a cow,” Dr. Humphries says.“Sometimes there was some goat genetic disease in there. There was horsepox mixed in there.There was sometimes human pox mixed in and some glycerin. They would shake it up; they would take kind of a prong, and puncture the skin several times…there were many people who developed serious smallpox disease and died after they were vaccinated. The severity of disease was often worse in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated.There are statistics that show that the death rate was higher in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated.”
Suzanne also explains that when the vaccine was first developed, there was no way to accurately diagnose what pox disease a person had. Any pox was considered smallpox, when in reality it could have been chickenpox, monkeypox, or smallpox. Furthermore, human pox virus was never in the vaccine.
Suzanne explains that this vaccine was the most contaminated vaccine ever used.
What Happened When Leicester, England Stopped Getting Vaccinated
What Happened When Leicester, England Stopped Getting Vaccinated
” If you look at a town like Leicester in England, that town was noticing that they had one of the highest vaccination rates in the vaccinated world and their smallpox breakout was higher than ever,” Dr. Humphries says.
“The people in the town had a rally. The mayor and some of the health officials were there. They all agreed that they were going to stop vaccinating… The result was quite different from the predictions.
What we show in our book – and we show the graphs of the disease rates and the death rates – was that both of them went down precipitously after the vaccinations were stopped. That story right there tells you that vaccines were not what made the disease go away; what made the disease go away was isolation and sanitation.“
Why Antibodies Are The Wrong Way To ‘Immunity’
As Dr. Mercola explains in his article, The Forgotten History of Vaccinations You Need to Be Aware Of
“One of the major arguments against vaccine-induced immunity is that it primarily stimulates the humoral immune system and not the cellular immune system. Antibodies are produced by the humoral immune system and then routinely measured to determine ‘immunity.’The problem with this approach is that you can have high antibody levels and still get the disease. It’s very difficult and expensive to measure the cellular immune response, and immunologists admit that they are still in the dark about a lot of the finer points of the overall immune response.Antibody titers or blood levels [don’t] tell you whether you’re going to be immune in the future, because antibodies are only one aspect of the immune response, and in some cases are not even necessary to easily combat the sickness and become immune.”
Humphries also elaborates,
“It’s not only imprecise; sometimes it’s downright inaccurate. You can have very high antibody levels, like numerous case reports of people who have hugely high antibody levels for tetanus, or normal antibodies, and have gotten some of the worst cases of tetanus.I have papers that show that people without antibody for polio have actually been able to respond to the virus as if they were already immune. The antibody really is a real wrong roadmap to look at to tell what’s really going on. Sometimes there’s correlation, but it’s certainly not a given.”
What About Polio?
The alleged success of the polio vaccine is another commonly used tactic in the vaccine debate for paralysis in the muscles. Before the vaccine became available, if you were admitted to the hospital any doctor could diagnose you with polio based on two physical examinations within 24 hours, to check for paralysis in one or more muscle groups. We now know that a number of viruses can cause paralysis, but back then, all instances were thought to be due to polio virus.
But when the polio vaccine was developed, a problem emerged. Swedish scientists were trying to tell the US scientists that formaldehyde inactivation was not going to work as planned.
But the warning fell on deaf ears, and as it turns out, formaldehyde did not kill of the live polio viruses in the injectable vaccine. This lead to the paralysis and injury of many in 1955.
To cover this up, they changed the diagnostic criteria for polio.
With polio, the original criteria was two examinations within 24 hours. This was changed to two examinations within 60 days. This was helpful in cooking the books, because within 60 days, most people recover from their bout with poliomyelitis.
Next was the testing issue. Prior to the vaccine, there was no testing done on blood or stool samples. After the vaccine came along, there was an epidemic in Michigan around 1958. About 2,000 people were diagnosed with polio.
Once serological testing was finally done, they discovered that the polio virus was found in only a small minority—about one-quarter of the 2,000 who displayed symptoms of infection. Interestingly, in the remainder of people who were showing symptoms they either discovered a different virus or no virus at all. And, subsequently, those patients were no longer “counted” as having polio.
What Happened When They Switched To An Oral Polio Vaccine
After an oral polio vaccine you become a reservoir for a virus that can mutate or combine with other bowel viruses, creating new strains that are often more virulent to those around you.
According to Dr. Humphries, the only thing the injectable vaccine theoretically does is give you some blood immunity, similar to tetanus. This means it is only going to be effective if your blood meets the virus before the virus meets your nervous system.
Once vaccine makers realized just how difficult it was to inactivate the polio virus, and many people ended up contracting polio from the vaccine, they decided to abandon the injectable polio vaccine and create an oral vaccine instead, which is more similar to the natural route of infection.
Again, controversy ensued. The oral vaccine did interrupt transmission of the wild type virus, but it propagated transmission of the vaccine virus instead.
“You can give a baby an oral polio vaccine and it can be attenuated. But even in the vial, before you give it to that baby, those viruses are starting to revert back to their former problematic state. And then once the baby swallows that, the baby will generate some immunity in the intestine. But what’s going to come out of that baby is going to be mutated vaccine virus. Oftentimes this is problematic, especially in people who are immunosuppressed” Humphries explains.
The US eventually switched back to the injectable in the 90s, making adjustments to the formula as a response to the inactivated polio virus. Modern polio vaccines are propagated and inactivated differently from earlier versions, and different countries also use different strains of the polio virus, using one or two as opposed to three strains previously.
“Even today, you can just go on to the CDC website and the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR). You can see that cases of polio in this country by and large occur when people get the oral vaccine in another country and then come here.The injected vaccines do not interrupt propagation of the virus. If somebody comes to this country who has recently had an oral polio vaccine and he’s shedding a highly virulent strain, people in this country can start passing it around.”
Infant Immunity & Epigenetics
Humphries told Dr. Mercola that right now she’s focused on infant immunity, as some major developments have come out in the past few years that challenges the idea of vaccinating infants.
Instead of arguing about any particular vaccine, if you understand the way the infant immune system is designed, you can automatically see that if you were going to toss any kind of a vaccine in there, you might give them some short-term immunity, but you’re also going to change their immune systems so that it can’t function the way it was designed to function… The arguments against vaccines when you really understand the infant immune system I think are irrefutable.”
New developments in the field of epigenetics have revealed that we are not victims to our genes.
These developments show that tinkering with an infant’s immune system is like planting ‘cluster bombs’ that will later explode.
In a study by Nikolaj Orntoft, African girls were injected with a tetanus vaccine to see which genes might be upregulated or downregulated. What they found is that there’s really no way to predict which genes will be affected.
So not only will each individual have a unique response to any given vaccine, based on their current health status, we’re also epigenetically predisposed to respond differently in terms of the side effects we might develop. This means that having a vaccine compensation table for reimbursement for vaccine damage is nonsensical as we’re bound to have different genes upregulated after vaccines are given.
Dr. Humphries “Most Doctors Are Uninformed And Therefore Cannot Give Informed Consent”
“[Vaccines] can have tumorigenic kidney cells of a cocker spaniel in it. It can have human fetal cells with retroviruses. [It can have] aluminum, which is one of the most horrible things to inject into any sort of life form, especially into a muscle… Parents really need to know that their doctors are not informed and therefore they cannot give informed consent, and that they really need to think about it because you cannot unvaccinate.”The fear of, “Oh, what if my child gets a disease”—that’s where knowing the history is really important because what we’re talking about is under which conditions people become susceptible . That’s really more important than transmission. Because, yes, measles transmits very rapidly through the population, but it actually has a lot of benefits to the immune system—so much so that they’re using it to treat cancer today.”
Dr. Humphries also notes that the human body is designed in such a perfect way that there is a system in place to handle just about anything that happens to it, provided we’ve treated our body properly.
“Babies who come into this world in a normal and natural way, who are breastfed for an appropriate amount of time, that’s the best protection you could ever give to your baby’s immune system or brain. Consider that when the fear starts to creep in. If you’re breastfeeding your baby, you’re already giving the most powerful thing on the planet that can be given to that baby,” she says.
Empower Yourself Through Education
Historical evidence shows that vaccines are not the answer to disease.
As Dr. Mercola states,
“There’s just no question that improving your innate immune system—through reducing sugar and processed foods in your diet, improving your gut flora, leading a healthy lifestyle, and having adequate vitamin D levels, ideally through sensible sun exposure,—will provide a far more effective immune response and virtually eliminate any risk of developing a life threatening infection.The key is to have the courage to trust in this truth—that your body is designed to maintain health.”
Dr. Humphries ends her conversation with Mercola with a blatant truth,
“We have a highly profitable, lucrative religion that involves the government, industry, and academia. That religion is vaccination. People believe in vaccines. They’ll tell you, they believe in vaccines. But you ask them what they know about vaccines and it will be almost nothing.Medical schools are bereft of information on the history of vaccination, on the contents of them, and the potential problems.Doctors are really being systematically brainwashed. Not only that, but if doctors do start to see problems… wake up to it; do their own research, and buck the system, they risk being treated the way I was. I was well respected through the entire state of Maine. People were referring their patients to me. My colleagues would come to me with their medical problems… But once I started to argue against the practice of vaccination, I was automatically tossed into the category of a quack…”

You should not propagate this anti-vaccine nonsense. Humphries is a well documented quack who not only promotes these dangerous views but pseudoscience like homeopathy as well. Like any discipline, statistically out of many thousands of sound practitioners, there will always be the odd one or two who succumb to this line of perverse reasoning and they are invariably the ones cited to push a particular viewpoint. Unfortunately, the internet now allows such views, which would never have previously reached a wide audience, to become more prevalent. Please be responsible, because lives actually depend on correct medical advice.
I wish that were the case, believe me, the truth is far more difficult to reconcile. But in light of the fact that this IS the truth, I am being responsible. There is far too much blind faith placed in experts and authorities, and the result is horrific.
We MUST begin to think for ourselves, and I implore you to EDUCATE yourself, so you can prevent anyone in your life from dying or suffering needlessly because of this intentionally deleterious medical treatments. PLEASE, i see far to many people suffering on this planet, and my heart aches, DO NOT let your fear the truth blind you to the horrors of ignorance. I do not want another human being to suffer because of it, nor should you.
Love and respect.
If you read the article, it makes perfect sense. Not only that, but it just seems like common sense! I know within myself that good health through food, sun and exercise is the key to maintaining your immune system. I think that people don't pay enough attention to these things and rely on vaccines to keep them safe. Bottom line is that I don't want to inject crap into mine or my child's healthy immune system. It's really sad that anyone who questions vaccines is called a quack.
