RETRANSMISSION: Physicians & Scientists Reveal: School-Mandated Vaccines Lack Proof of Safety Over Targeted Diseases
New document compares vaccine risks to 10 disease risks
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., January 28, 2025 (Newswire.com) - Physicians for Informed Consent (PIC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization, has introduced a new comprehensive educational document to assist physicians, policymakers and the public in comparing the known risks of 10 diseases, in normal-risk children who have not been vaccinated, to the uncertain risks of their vaccines.
The disease risks included are for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), polio, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), hepatitis B, measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella (chicken pox). These diseases have a vaccine targeting them which is mandated for school attendance; without a personal belief or religious exemption in four states (California, Connecticut, New York, and Maine). The document provides easy access to crucial historical government data from sources such as the National Center for Health Statistics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and indicates that the vaccine safety studies for the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTaP), polio (IPV), Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), varicella (chicken pox), hepatitis B, and measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccines do not have the statistical power to detect risk levels as low as the 10 diseases they target.
"The whole point of vaccine safety studies is to prove with certainty that the risk of a vaccine is less than the risk of the disease," said Dr. Shira Miller, founder and president of Physicians for Informed Consent. "As there is currently public discourse about the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Secretary of Health and Human Services due to his concerns about vaccine safety, we are able to provide the data for 10 disease risks (without vaccination) and their vaccine risks, which are necessary to compare in order to understand why questions regarding certainty about vaccine safety arise."
Compare, for example, the risk of death or permanent disability from polio without the polio vaccine, which is 5.3 in 100,000 normal-risk children, to the lowest risk that can be detected from IPV vaccine safety studies which is 200 in 100,000. The actual risk of the vaccine is between 0 to 200 in 100,000, so it's not known if the vaccine risk is less or more than the disease risk.
Following the same logic, key points from the document are:
The polio (IPV) vaccine has not been proven safer than polio.
The measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine has not been proven safer than measles, mumps and rubella.
The diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTaP) vaccine has not been proven safer than diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough).
The Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) vaccine has not been proven safer than Hib.
The hepatitis B vaccine has not been proven safer than hepatitis B.
The varicella (chicken pox) vaccine has not been proven safer than chicken pox.
