History of Vaccine Production and Safety

Sick animals have always been used for vaccine production.

This image from our book, Dissolving Lusin,

shows the different types of pus that was mixed back and forth

between animals and humans and back again.

The smallpox vaccine was the first

to transgress nature's built-in protective biologic barrier

against interspecies transmission of disease.

But smallpox vaccines, as bad as they were,

only punctured into the skin.

After the invention of the hypodermic needle,

injections were developed to penetrate into muscle,

and everything changed.

In 1957, when scientists realized

there was a tumor-causing agent in the polio vaccine,

accidental interspecies transfer and consequences

was of some concern.

But a higher priority was stopping the public

from learning about it.

Some scientists believed that the public had a right to know

and they sacrificed greatly to get knowledge to us.

Because of them, we know for certain

that since at least 1955,

the U.S. government was deceiving the public

and injecting the masses with unsafe and ineffective vaccines.
