What do authorities say?
What is the basis of the claim?
The 2.5 million estimate has been cited by public
health organizations for at least 10 years now and
can be traced back to the 2009 WHO report State of
the world’s vaccines and immunization. That report,
written primarily by freelance public health and
science writer John Maurice, whose clients included
vaccine supplier Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance and
vaccine manufacturer Novartis, claimed: “Every
year immunization averts an estimated 2.5 million
deaths among children under five years old.”
What is the basis of the claim?
WHO came up with the 2.5 million estimate based
on the assumption that most of the children
under five years of age who died around the
world were unvaccinated. As the number of
deaths of children in this age range declined,
the assumption was that the declines were
largely due to increased vaccination rates.
What are the facts?
Most children under five years of age do not die
solely because they were unvaccinated.
According to data collected by the Institute for
Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the
University of Washington in Seattle, more than
two-thirds of children under five years of age
who die each year die of causes other than
diseases for which vaccines are available.
What are the facts?
The number of children under five years old dying
every year has fallen from 12.7 million in 1990
to 8.8 million in 2008. – WHO-UNICEF
Which means that during the 18 years preceding
the WHO’s 2009 report, the number of children
under five years of age dying prematurely had
dropped by an average of 216,666.7 annually.
What are the facts?
So the best the WHO should have been able to
say in 2009 was that vaccines prevented just
under 217,000 deaths of children in this age
range. Worldwide. That is a far cry from the
outdated 2.5 million estimate that the
organization continues to provide as justification
for expanding childhood vaccination programs
and the development of more and more
vaccines.
https://thevaccinereaction.org/2019/02/do-vaccines-really-prevent-
2-5-million-children-from-dying-each-year/
What are the facts?
Since more than two-thirds of children under five
years of age who die each year die of causes
other than diseases for which vaccines are
available, the corrected estimate should be
217,000 divided by 3 or 72,333, which is still an
over-estimation of preventable deaths by
vaccination because this does not take into
account deaths due to causes other than being
unvaccinated and deaths of the vaccinated.
Vaccine Safety Information from the Center
for Disease Control (CDC), U.S.A.
1.”The safety of vaccines is thoroughly studied
before they are licensed for public use.”
2.”There is a strong system in place to help
scientists monitor the safety of vaccines.”
3. “Like any medicine, vaccines can cause side
effects. However, serious adverse events from
vaccines are rare.”
4.”There is not a plausible biologic reason to
believe vaccines would cause any serious long-
term effects.”
Vaccine Safety Information from the Center
for Disease Control (CDC), U.S.A.
5. “Receiving combination vaccines or several
different vaccines during one visit is safe and
offers the quickest protection against multiple
diseases.”
6. “Health officials are continuously monitoring
information from many sources for any clues
that a particular vaccine may cause an adverse
health event. As a result, the United States has
one of the best vaccine safety programs in the
world.”

Increased Infections After DPT vaccination
Eighty two infants, aged 2-12 months, were prospectively studied
for infectious episodes following diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus
(DPT) immunization. The occurrence of infectious episodes
during the month following vaccination was compared to that
during the month prior to its administration. In comparison to the
month prior to immunization, during the month following there
were significantly more infants with fever (6.1% vs. 24.4%), with
diarrhea (7.3% vs. 23.1%), and with cough (37.7% vs 52.4%).
After the first month of the study, there was an increase in
morbidity in the region, so we reevaluated those cases who had
been seen during the latter 3 months. The same trend was
found: in the month following immunization there were
significantly more infants with fever (5.3% vs. 25%), with
diarrhea (10.5% vs. 28%), and with cough (26% vs. 54%).

Benefits and risks of the Sanofi-Pasteur dengue vaccine: Modeling optimal deployment.
Science 02 Sep 2016:Vol. 353, Issue 6303, pp. 1033-1036.
Dengvaxia May Increase Severe Dengue
1. The possibility that dengue vaccines can cause severe dengue has led to
serious concern regarding the safety of mass vaccination programs.
2. This paper points out problems in the analyses of a published meta-analysis
addressing this safety issue for a new vaccine against dengue fever -
Dengvaxia ™.
3. Although the authors of the meta-analysis show a 7-fold rise in
hospitalization for dengue fever in children < 5 years old, they fail to point
out two signals of harm for another outcome – hospitalization for severe
dengue fever in children younger than 9 years, the relative risk was 8.5, and
in the overall study group, the relative risk was 5.5 .
4. The selective reporting and inappropriate subgroup claims mask the
potential harm of dengue mass vaccination programs.
5. Countries planning public use of the vaccine must conduct diligent post-
marketing surveillance, secure informed consent from parents of potential
recipients and closely monitor the results of ongoing long-term follow-up of
clinical trial participants.

Sanofi Record of Criminal Behaviour
A whistleblowing former paralegal at drug giant Sanofi
is now claiming she was aware of "many instances"
where Sanofi lawyers destroyed documents to avoid
turning them over to opponents in prior legal cases.
Ponte's suit, filed last year, claims she learned of an
alleged scheme at Sanofi to pay more than $30 million
in kickbacks to promote the company's diabetes drugs.
The suit came a year after the France-based drug
company already agreed to pay more than $100 million
to the U.S. federal government to settle other claims
related to alleged kickbacks to doctors, and seven
months after Sanofi agreed to pay a nearly $40 million
fine in Germany in connection with two employees who
were convicted there of paying bribes to boost drug
sales.

Sanofi Record of Criminal Behaviour
June 19 2014, Logroño, Spain: Attorney Don Manuel Sáez
Ochoa filed a criminal complaint against Merck-Sanofi
Pasteur Laboratories, Spanish National Health
authorities ... for injuries and disabilities suffered by
Zuriñe after the administration of Gardasil. The complaint
states that (the company) failed to use an inert placebo
during clinical trials, thereby manipulating data and
marketing Gardasil under false pretences. Despite
complaints of several young women with similar new
medical conditions after Gardasil injections, the Spanish
health authorities ignored calls for a moratorium...health
authorities had adequate knowledge regarding the
potential harmful effects of Gardasil and chose to
recommend administration of the HPV vaccine anyway.

Aluminum in Vaccines:Toxicity
Aluminium (Al) oxyhydroxide (Alhydrogel 1 ), the main
adjuvant licensed for human and animal vaccines, consists of
primary nanoparticles that spontaneously agglomerate.
Concerns about its safety emerged following recognition of its
unexpectedly long-lasting biopersistence within immune cells
in some individuals, and reports of chronic fatigue syndrome,
cognitive dysfunction, myalgia, dysautonomia and
autoimmune/inflammatory features temporally linked to
multiple Al-containing vaccine administrations...

Hazards of Genetically Engineered Vaccines
There appears to have been a rush to create cheap oral HPV
vaccines in transgenic plants, microbes and viruses that do not
require refrigeration and can be distributed relatively inexpensively,
but would involve widespread releases of hazardous transgenes and
products into the open environment...The Cervarix vaccine available
commercially is produced by GlaxoSmithKline using a baculovirus
vector propagated in an insect cell line. A number of other vaccines
are also being produced using baculovirus vectors...Some progress
has been achieved in making more stable baculovirus expression
vector lines. Nevertheless, regulators and the vaccine producer
have not made public comment about the genetic stability of the
baculovirus lines producing Cervarix vaccine, nor the fact that
baculovirus is capable of infecting mammalian cells and tissues. If
the GM baculovirus infects mammalian cells and tissues in vivo, they
would also transfer transgenes to those infected cells as gene
therapy experiments have demonstrated since 2001.

Hazards of Recombinant Dengue Vaccine
Neurovirulence for DEN-4 2A and DEN-4 2AD30 viruses
increased significantly following passages in Vero cells
compared to passages in MRC-5 cells. In addition,more severe
DEN-induced hemorrhaging in mice was noted following DEN-4
2A and DEN-4 2AD30 passages in Vero cells compared to
passages in MRC-5 cells. Target mutagenesis performed on
the DEN-4 2A infectious clone indicated that single point
mutation of E-Q 438 H, E-V 463 L, NS2B-Q 78 H, and NS2B-A
113 T imperatively increased mouse hemorrhaging severity.
The relationship between amino acid mutations acquired during
Vero cell passage and enhanced DEN-induced hemorrhages in
mice may be important for understanding DHF pathogenesis,
as well as for the development of live-attenuated dengue
vaccines.

Smallpox epidemic after vaccination
In the Philippines, prior to U.S. takeover in 1905, case mortality
from smallpox was about 10%. In 1905, following the
commencement of systematic vaccination enforced by the U.S.
government, an epidemic occurred where the case mortality
ranged from 25% to 50% in different parts of the islands. In
1918-1919 with over 95 percent of the population vaccinated,
the worst epidemic in the Philippines’ history occurred resulting
in a case mortality of 65 percent. The highest percentage
occurred in the capital, Manila, the most thoroughly vaccinated
place. The lowest percentage occurred in Mindanao, the least
vaccinated place, owing to religious prejudices. Dr. V. de
Jesus, Director of Health, stated that the 1918-1919 smallpox
epidemic resulted in 60,855 deaths.

Decline of Measles Incidence To Support
Claim of Vaccine Efficacy
https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/vaccines-didnt-save-us-intellectual-
dishonesty-at-its-most-naked/
The true reason for the decline
However, the official data was discovered later to
be not credible. It turned out that the reason for
the huge drop in measles morbidity rate was
because many children who were vaccinated
and later exhibited rash symptoms with high
fever were not diagnosed as having measles
because of the strong belief that if the child was
vaccinated, then it could not be measles
because the immunity was supposed to be
lifetime.

Spikes of Increased Mortality Despite Claim
of Decreased Measles Incidence
It is less well known to the general public that vaccinated
children started developing an especially vicious form of
measles, due to the altered host immune response caused by
the deleterious effect of the measles vaccines. It resisted all
orthodox treatment and carried a high mortality rate. It has
become known as atypical measles (AMS).
