Do vaccines cause cancer? This may sound like a crazy question to some, but we can’t make progress without asking questions, right? We should never be afraid to ask questions, no matter how bizarre they may seem at first. Oftentimes, the first question we ask leads to a whole set of other questions that eventually leads us to some groundbreaking revelations.
As a vaccine researcher, there are two things I’m realizing most of us have in common. If we lived in a developed country, we are vaccinated, and we have a substantial risk of cancer. I’d like to discuss this possible link because we are not just receiving a few vaccines in our lifetime, or a just seeing a few cases of cancer popping up – WE’RE RECEIVING A LOT OF VACCINES AND SEEING A LOT OF CANCER.
In the U.S. 90 to 95% of American children are fully vaccinated. Why are we getting so many vaccines? For starters, the U.S. health authority, the CDC, recommends 70 doses of vaccines to children by adulthood!
People are under constant pressure to vaccinate their children due to marketing campaigns and state requirements for school enrollment. Additionally, some adults must get vaccines regularly in order to hold certain occupations, particularly in the medical field.
Cancer rates have steadily risen with the expansion of the vaccine schedule. My mother, born in 1970, had a third of the vaccines the children born today are having. Is it just a coincidence that with each passing generation we are seeing sicker and sicker people? Is it just a coincidence that our children today have the highest rates of cancer than ever before? For anyone with kids, these stats are nothing short of scary.
In 1975, cancer in children occurred in 13 children per 100,000, and this has increased to over 17 children per 100,000 since 2005. Big pharma has a lot of power. But also, the same people that profit from cancer and sick people in general are the same people who are pushing vaccines.
In fact, vaccine safety does not even include testing to see if it has the potential to cause cancer. All vaccines have this disclaimer on their package inserts:
“[insert vaccine name] has not been evaluated for carcinogenic or mutagenic potential, or potential to impair fertility.”
Whether you’re a fussy parent, or not, this piece of information or disclaimer, should make you take a step back and say, let me look into this more before allowing the doctor to vaccinate my child. While I personally do not have children of my own, I love children, and empathize with all parents who are faced with these hard decisions.
Every parent wants what’s best for their child and will do whatever it takes to keep them safe. In nearly every direction we turn, the message being spread is that vaccines are a necessary part of health care and the best way possible to prevent disease. What’s a parent to believe, especially a new parent? Nine times out of ten, they will believe and trust their doctor’s advice on vaccines and assume they are safe.
But not only are vaccines pushed with vigor by the belief they prevent disease, vaccines like the HPV vaccine, Gardasil, have people lining up to take it with its claims that it can prevent cancer.
I’ve talked about Gardasil in previous posts, and in this one I highlighted the questionable nature of Gardasil’s safety and the fact there are no long-term studies proving Gardasil can save lives.
In fact, Gardasil can actually increase cervical cancer risk. This vaccine that is marketed as anti-cancer boldly proclaims:
GARDASIL has not been evaluated for the potential to cause carcinogenicity or genotoxicity. (Source)
Now that’s a head scratcher! If I want to keep my child from getting cancer in the first place, then why the heck would I let them be injected with something that may or may not cause cancer??
The very way some vaccines are made raises questions. For instance, some viral cultures are grown on cancerous tissue. Just to give you an example, the polio vaccine created by Jonas Salk used what’s called HeLa cells which were derived from cervical cancer cells in 1951.
In 1954, the U.S. Armed Forces Epidemiology Board (AFEB) clearly had concerns about using cancer cells to make vaccines so at that time they made the decision to use normal cells instead. On the FDA’s website, this briefing details the matter:
“This decision was based on concerns about the possibility that human tumor cells might be contaminated with occult oncogenic agents that might be transferred to vaccine recipients, an event which might in turn increase the risk of cancer and other neoplastic diseases in vaccinees.”
And, let’s not forget that the oral polio vaccine was tainted with the cancer-causing virus SV40. SV40, or Simian virus #40, was discovered to be carcinogenic in 1960, and shockingly, around 98 million Americans received the vaccine between 1954 and 1963. Nope, the polio vaccine was not immediately pulled, the government turned a blind eye to the discovery.
I wrote about this very issue with the polio vaccine and how the SV40 virus has been found in human cancers in two different posts last month, so feel free to check them out below:
So, yes, we do know that vaccines can cause cancer, we learned this from the polio vaccine and even more importantly, that passenger viruses, like the SV40 virus, are a big cause for concern for vaccines in general. It is this risk of viral contamination that have made some of the vaccine overseers scrutinize vaccines.
If you have not made up your mind about vaccines yet I encourage you to do more research and keep following my blog. I love making friends here on Steemit, so please follow me.
As always, think before you vaccinate.
