“…Bodian, 1952). But when it was recognized that localized paralysis in poliomyelitis was sometimes precipitated by injections of diphtheria prophylactics and the like (Martin, 1950;McCloskey, 1950) it was suggested that a reflex mechanism might in some way predispose to a local invasion of the nervous system from the blood-stream (Burnet, 1950). That such localized reflexes occurred was shown by Field, Grayson & Rogers (1949.…”

1. The strain HFEM of herpes simplex virus is highly virulent for the 5-week-old mouse when inoculated intracerebrally; the LD50 and the ID50 both being close to the egg infectious unit. It is also virulent when given intraspinally.2. When inoculated peripherally it seldom causes nervous symptoms in the normal mouse but regularly does so if inoculated into skin which has previously been given a subcutaneous injection of 10% sodium chloride.3. After intradermal inoculation of pretreated mice with strain HFEM, the paralysis is preceded by the appearance of infective virus in the blood, the sciatic nerve and the central nervous system. Invasion of the central nervous system is prevented by interruption of the local peripheral nerve.4. There is no evidence that virus enters the central nervous system by way of the lymphatics or by direct extension through the tissues.5. After intravenous inoculation virus does not invade the central nervous system unless (a) massive inocula are used or (b) the brain is traumatized by injecting sterile saline. After peripheral inoculation insufficient virus to infect even traumatized brain seems to circulate in the cerebral vessels. Paralysis and invasion of the central nervous system are not prevented by circulating neutralizing antibody given 18 hours after inoculation.It therefore appears that invasion of the central nervous system takes place only by way of the peripheral nerve.

“…'6 These reports were based on observations made in one or several cases. During 1950 a number of British and Australian investigators reported on studies in groups of cases [17][18][19][20][21][22][23] which indicated that in children recently inoculated with pertussis vaccine, diphtheria toxoid, or tetanus toxoid the injected limb was more frequently the site of paralysis than was the case in children not recently inoculated. Hill and Knowelden,24 in a careful statistical study, corroborated these findings.…”

“…When diphtheria and pertussis vaccines were introduced in the 1940s, cases of paralytic poliomyelitis skyrocketed ( Figure 1) [10]. This was documented in Lancet and other medical journals [11][12][13]. In 1949, the Medical Research Council in Great Britain set up a committee to investigate the matter and ultimately concluded that individuals are at increased risk of paralysis for 30 days following injections; injections alter the distribution of paralysis; and it did not matter whether the injections were subcutaneous or intramuscular [14,15].…”

The polio vaccine: a critical assessment of its arcane history, efficacy, and long-term health-related consequences

Polio (poliomyelitis) is a potentially dangerous viral ailment. To combat this disease, researchers developed two polio vaccines (inactivated and live) grown in cultures made from monkey kidneys. Beginning in the 1950s, these vaccines were administered to millions of people in the United States and throughout the world. Officially, the polio vaccine is considered safe and effective, and has been credited with singularly reducing the incidence of this disease. These tenets are not supported by the data.A cancer-causing monkey virus-SV-40-was discovered in polio vaccines administered to millions of people. SV-40 has been found in brain tumors, bone cancers, lung cancers and leukemia. SV-40 is transmitted through sexual intercourse, and from mother to child in the womb. Monkeys that were used to make polio vaccines were infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), a virus closely related to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the infectious agent associated with AIDS. Some researchers question whether HIVs may simply be SIVs "residing in and adapting to a human host." Polio vaccines also contain calf serum, glycerol and other parts of the cow that may have been infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), or mad cow disease, a fatal brain-wasting ailment that some researchers link to Cruetzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), its human equivalent.Current disease reduction techniques that emphasize short-term gains over long-term health consequences need to be reevaluated and discontinued while new and safer health paradigms are researched and implemented.
