Now these epidemics of foot and mouth disease in cattle seem to be no
uncommon thing, and, what is very significant, they seem to be very
common, severe, and almost constant in countries where vaccination
is very extensive and rigid, such as in Germany and also in Japan,
where German ideas have been copied and where, of course, the cattle
are extensively diseased to produce this vile disease stuff, known
as vaccine virus; and it must be here noted that it was from much
vaccinated Japan that the seed virus came which caused our great
epidemics of 1902 and 1908.
The Report of the U. S. Department of Agriculture for 1908, page 381,
shows that _in one year_, in Germany alone, over _800,000 cattle
and other animals_ were infected by Foot and Mouth Disease. And it
seems probable that this extensive infection of cattle may have come
originally from the general and wide-spread vaccination used in Germany.
Now so far as we know the parties responsible for causing the great
damage in our two great epidemics of foot and mouth disease have as yet
made no legal recompense to the National or State Governments, or to
the private individuals aggrieved, for which damage they would appear
to be clearly liable.
Consider for a moment the audacious recklessness and negligence
in infecting cattle in hundreds of wounds on the body with a most
infectious disease, or combination of diseases, commonly and falsely
represented as harmless, and afterwards turning these dangerously
infected animals loose among healthy herds! But this is only one of
the audacious acts and dangerous results against public right, health,
and safety occurring constantly from the deadly medical barbarism
of compulsory vaccination, which the Government would do well to
investigate and correct immediately. And the best way to begin this
correction is to ABOLISH ALL COMPULSORY VACCINATION.
I will show further on how foot and mouth disease is frequently
conveyed to mankind by vaccination, with awful and fatal effects, but
in the meantime I will first show how deaths from lockjaw are one of
the most common and fatal results of vaccination.
HOW LOCKJAW IS CAUSED BY VACCINATION AND HOW THIS TRUTH IS DENIED AND
CONCEALED BY VACCINATORS
This dreadful and most fatal disease known as “Tetanus” or Lockjaw
is such a common result of vaccination, and the consequential and
responsible relation of vaccination thereto is so shamefully denied and
concealed by vaccinators, that a special chapter seems to be necessary
here to give the real truth on this important point.
In my previous pamphlet “Vaccination and Lockjaw” I have treated
this subject exhaustively and now refer thereto for full facts and
authorities, but I will give an outline of the subject here which will
cover the main facts in the case.
One of the most common and false defences of the vaccinators on this
point is the shameful fallacy and falsehood that if the lockjaw
germs are not found in the virus itself, therefore vaccination with
this virus cannot cause lockjaw in the vaccinated person or be held
responsible for it. This is, substantially, the logic or implication
in one of our latest Government reports on this subject by Dr. J. F.
Anderson, entitled “Post Vaccination Tetanus,” which title means in
plain English, _Lockjaw after Vaccination_, published in the U. S.
Health Reports of July 16, 1915.
In this report the author, who is an expert on vaccines, practically
excuses vaccination for all blame for lockjaw deaths where the lockjaw
germs do not exist, or cannot be proved to exist in the vaccine virus
itself!... After making this half truthful and misleading report
favorable to vaccination, the author, according to the statement of a
Washington newspaper, resigned from the employ of the U. S. Government
at a salary reported as $4,500 per year and entered the employ of one
of the biggest manufacturers of vaccine virus and serums in the country
at the alleged enormous salary of $25,000 per year!
For a more truthful and accurate report showing how lockjaw germs are
widely diffused and how they absolutely depend on a pus infection, like
the vaccination sore, or its equivalent, for their “activation” and
fatal effects, as now explained here, see Studies of Dr. Francis, in
Bulletin No. 95, U. S. Hygienic Laboratory, August, 1914.
LOCKJAW MAY BE CAUSED BY VACCINATION WHETHER THE GERMS ARE IN THE VIRUS
OR NOT
The real truth in this matter is, therefore, that there are at least
four distinct ways in which vaccination can cause death from lockjaw:
_First_: The lockjaw germs may be in the virus itself and be inoculated
directly into the vaccination wound at the moment of vaccination.
And, despite Dr. Anderson’s negative tests, the possibility of this
direct infection can exist at any time, as admitted by some of our
best authorities, already quoted, on account of the many ways in which
the infection can enter the virus, from the vaccinated calf itself and
otherwise, and also because its presence cannot always be proved by
tests, although known to be in the virus. The lockjaw germ normally
dwells in and issues from the digestive organs of domestic animals and
is therefore found in manure and garden soil and on the hide and hair
of animals and hence may be in the body of the vaccinated calf itself
from which the virus is produced!
_Second_: The lockjaw germ, which is widely distributed in some
localities, may exist on the person of the vaccinator or the vaccinated
at the time of vaccination and be then introduced into the wound with
the virus, and the two infections may thus develop together, the pus
infection in the wound being necessary to “activate” the lockjaw germs
as already shown.
_Third_: The lockjaw germ may enter the vaccination wound and grow in
its pus secretion at any time during its suppurating stage by chance
scratching, abrasion or absorption, and thus develop its awful toxin
with fatal effect on the vaccinated victim.
_Fourth_: The lockjaw germ may already exist within the body when the
vaccination is performed, and is known to frequently exist as a natural
tenant or denizen of the healthy human body, in nearly one-quarter of
the human race! This is also the case with several other disease germs.
In such cases the indwelling lockjaw germ will remain entirely inert,
dormant and harmless in the body unless some condition necessary to
its “activation” or growth is presented, such as that of a suppurating
sore, ulcer, abscess or wound, anywhere within or upon the body, the
pus-infected or suppurating vaccination sore being, of course, the
ideal condition for the activation and growth of the fatal lockjaw
infection, as already shown; and this is probably the most common and
dangerous way in which vaccination can cause death from lockjaw and
other diseases, and the greatest care in the preparation of the virus
itself cannot avoid this danger!
It will therefore be seen that in every one of these instances the
vaccination wound or sore itself is the essential cause or condition of
the lockjaw infection, which could not or would not exist without this
condition, or its equivalent, and hence it is nothing but a dastardly
evasion and perversion of medical truth and honesty to try to show
that, because the lockjaw germ is not in the virus at the moment of
vaccination, or that it gets into the wound afterwards through some
natural chance or condition to which the human body is constantly
subjected, therefore the act of vaccination is not responsible for the
resulting death from lockjaw.
“ASSASSINATION OF THE BLOOD” MUST BE STOPPED
It is time, therefore, that this outrageously dishonest medical
quibble as to the exact source of infection in vaccinal lockjaw was
silenced once for all. What difference does it make to the victim
of this terribly fatal disease whether the lockjaw germ was in the
virus itself or in or on the victim’s own body, when in either case
the act of vaccination, _per se_ and _ab initio_, is the cause of
the infection becoming active and fatal in the human body? A logic
which would contend otherwise would free the assassins of Presidents
Garfield and McKinley from the charge of murder because, forsooth,
the fatal septic infection which killed these victims was not on the
murderous bullets when they were fired into their bodies, but entered
the wounds afterwards through their own carelessness! This is exactly
the false and murderous logic that is constantly used by our well-paid
professional apologists for vaccination and by their abject dupes, our
befooled editors, who brazenly or ignorantly use it in defense of this
gross medical malpractice of forcing a most dangerous form of disease
and blood infection on healthy and helpless children and adults, which
a great English doctor, James J. Garth Wilkinson, so truly calls the
“Assassination of the Blood” in the following glowing words, written
many years ago, but which convey a stinging rebuke to men of his own
great profession in this matter to-day: “This is blood assassination,
and like a murderer’s life. The point, however, here is that this
amazing act is the homicidal insanity of a whole profession.” See “On
Human Science, Good and Evil,” Lippincott, Phila., 1876, page 35.
