A Smallpox Threat Could Be Our Own Creation
Few people living today have ever seen anyone suffering
from smallpox. Because of an extensive vaccination and
quarantine program that supposedly eradicated the bug,
those of us living in America have only heard about the
disease through the historical record. What we know
about smallpox is what we are being told.
And that does not appear to be very accurate
information.
Most people believe that smallpox is highly contagious
and if introduced to an unvaccinated culture, will
spread rapidly through casual contact. They believe it
is a deadly disease that claims an estimated 30 percent
of its victims. And there is no treatment. It also is
believed that a vaccine exists that will protect us.
We also know that because some smallpox strains still
exist in certain laboratories of the world, it is
considered a possible biological weapon for terrorism.
Consequently the U. S. government is on a high-speed
program to get enough smallpox vaccine made to
inoculate the public.
I do not want anyone putting that vaccine in my veins.
I believe the shot may be more dangerous than exposure
to the disease.
An article in The Idaho Observer by Dr. Sherri Tenpenny
suggests that the public is programmed to fear a
smallpox epidemic that probably will never happen.
Dr. Tenpenny said she attended a meeting of the
Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices at the
Center for Disease Control in Atlanta in June, 2002, to
hear testimony concerning the need for smallpox
vaccinations.
She said the meeting gave her a new perspective on
smallpox and assures us that, based on testimony
presented before the CDC, we have nothing to fear. What
Dr. Tenpenny does not understand is why this
information has not been reported to the general public.
Tenpenny said she learned that smallpox has a slow
transmission and although contagious, it can be easily
contained through quarantine. The disease does not
become contagious until the rash appears. By then, the
patient is so ill with headache, nausea, vomiting and
other symptoms he or she is already bedridden and not
mixing with the general public. The symptoms do not
include coughing or sneezing so germs are rarely spread
through the air. Even if exposed, when a person's
immune system is in good repair the body can resist the
disease.
Smallpox has been widely reported to have a 30 percent
mortality rate, but this is found to be untrue, Dr.
Tenpenny wrote. She said the actual death record in
countries where smallpox was most recently occurring
was about 10 to 15 percent. Since the disease is mostly
associated with the skin, doctors could not pinpoint
the cause of these deaths. She wrote that an unknown
complication should be considered as the cause of the
deaths and not the smallpox.
The doctor said there is a major effort, mostly by
European drug companies, to develop an antiviral drug
compound to treat smallpox. Some of these are nearly
ready for marketing in other countries. "Unfortunately,
this drug is being developed in Europe and will likely
be kept out of the U. S. market until long after the
general public has been subjected to mass vaccination,"
Tenpenny wrote.
This could be tragic, she suggests because "the vaccine
will not protect you from getting the infection. The
vaccine has high complication rates, is an experimental
drug and there are many contraindications."
The vaccine is found to cause a drug reaction that
could be deadly in some of the people who receive it.
Dr. Tenpenny said there is a lack of vaccinia immune
globulin (VIG), the "antidote" needed for people
experiencing a severe reaction to the vaccine.
She and other doctors are warning that: "in the absence
of VIG, extensive vaccination would be extremely
dangerous."
Tenpenny also warns that the Bush Administration's
threats to attack Iraq could bring a retaliatory
biological terrorist attack against the United States.
"We are setting the stage for a health disaster unlike
anything we have seen before in America, and it will be
our own doing," she writes. "World health records
(England, Germany, Italy, the Philippines, British
India, etc.) document that devastating epidemics
followed mass vaccination."
In other words, the vaccinations infected people to the
disease. There has never been any evidence that the
vaccine protected anybody, Dr. Tenpenny wrote.
