"After widespread use of smallpox vaccine became established in England, a smallpox epidemic broke out that killed 22,081 persons. The smallpox epidemics seemed to get worse each year the vaccine was used. In 1872 44,480 people died.
Japan began compulsory vaccination in 1872. In 1892 there were 165,774 cases of smallpox with 29,979 deaths. Vaccination was compulsory for all servicemen in World War 1. The Boston Herald reported that 47 soldiers died of the vaccination in one month. Military hospitals were full with casualties of the vaccine. Germany instituted compulsory vaccination in 1939." - James A. Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.)
| "In 1871-72, England, with 98 percent of the population aged between 2 and 50 vaccinated against smallpox, it experienced its worst ever smallpox outbreak with 45,000 deaths. During the same period in Germany, with a vaccination ratio of 96 percent, there were over 125,000 deaths from smallpox. (The Hadwen Documents.)
In Germany, compulsory mass vaccination against diphtheria commenced in 1940 and by 1945 diphtheria cases were up from 40,000 to 250,000. {Don't Get Stuck!, Hannah Allen." - Kevin Trudeau, More Natural Cures Revealed: Previously Censored Brand Name Products That Cure Disease (Get the book.)
| "At the time this vaccine was introduced, there was already a decline in the number of cases of smallpox. After widespread use of smallpox vaccine became established in England, a smallpox epidemic broke out that killed 22,081 persons. The smallpox epidemics seemed to get worse each year the vaccine was used. In 1872 44,480 people died.

| "While modern medicine leads us to believe the reduction of epidemic diseases like smallpox and polio is due to the introduction of mass vaccination programs, the research of Miller and Scheibner found this to be totally unsubstantiated. They found that infectious diseases, which were rampant in Europe even a century ago, had declined up to 90% before any vaccine had been used in large sections of the population. Diseases such as bubonic plague and scarlet fever disappeared entirely on their own without any vaccination programs at all." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)
"Forty-eight days later, smallpox matter was injected into the boy with no effect.
Today, vaccines exist for many diseases, and are mandatory in many countries. We have been led to believe that they are safe. But according to Neil Miller, "... findings on seven of the more commonly administered vaccines—for poliomyelitis (polio), diphtheria, measles, German measles (rubella), mumps, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough)—do not support this conclusion."15
Two books on vaccinations, by Neil Miller and Viera Scheibner respectively, were written after extensive studies of vaccine research."

| "Examples of viral infections include the common cold, influenza, tonsillitis, measles, certain bladder infections, smallpox, encephalitis, croup, AIDS, cold sores (herpes virus), and mononucleosis.
Enzymes can be used to improve digestion and support nutrient absorption, to promote protease in the bloodstream that the immune system can use to break down the protein-based viruses, and balance the body's pH levels to promote overall health." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)
| "Thanks to antibiotics, far fewer people fall victim to infectious diseases like pneumonia and smallpox. But in more recent years, the chronic overuse of antibiotics has become a huge problem in our culture. Pediatricians prescribe antibiotics to children for the most minor health complaints—even ones that antibiotics can do nothing to treat.
"There was always this expectation that your doctor's visit was a failed one if you didn't emerge with antibiotics," Dr. Boscamp said. But in the past five years, the situation has changed somewhat. " - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)
| "The small intestine is about twenty feet long in adults. smallpox An acute disease, and an infectious disease, caused by a virus, and now completely eradicated. smallpox was characterized by high fever and large sores on the body that leave scars. fa A surface with many blemishes is sometimes said to be "pockmarked" because it resembles the skin of a smallpox sufferer, fa smallpox is the first disease of humans to be completely eradicated by a worldwide campaign of inoculation." - E. D. Hirsch, Joseph F. Kett, James Trefil, The New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know (Get the book.)
| "Frustratingly—and despite the presence, during the Antonine Plague, of Galen, the most influential medical writer of all time—neither disease was described well enough for positive identification, though the consensus is that the first was smallpox and the second, measles. The conclusion is partly based on the tragically well-documented experience of New World peoples when they were exposed to both diseases without any acquired immunity, and partly on the epidemiological rule of thumb that suggests that modern-day childhood diseases are products of coevolution from far more dangerous versions." - William Rosen, Justinian's Flea: The First Great Plague and the End of the Roman Empire (Get the book.)
| "For example, one cannot have cowpox and smallpox at the same time. This is why people were vaccinated with cow pox to successfully prevent small pox. A common remedy in homeopathic medicine, Allium Cepa, made from red onion, illustrates this principle. When we cut an onion, our nose and eyes water and burn. If you have a cold with these same symptoms, it will be cured with homeopathic doses of Allium Cepa. In healthy people the substance produces the same symptoms one wants to cure in the sick.
Many people are amazed that this principle is effective." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)
| "When Florence Nightingale said bluntly that if you overcrowded your soldiers in dirty quarters there would be an outbreak of smallpox among them, she was snubbed as an ignorant female who did not know that smallpox [did Shaw mean typhoid?] can be produced only by the importation of its specific microbe.
"Shaw is so much more intelligent than Chekhov," says Rachel, "and better informed."
She knows I love Chekhov and that I also value the fact that Chekhov was a doctor, and a practising doctor, as well as a writer.
Rachel is letting off steam, and I now find why." - Michael Gearin-Tosh, Living Proof: A Medical Mutiny (Get the book.)
| "Routine vaccination for polio, smallpox, and whooping cough meant that losing a child to infectious disease was no longer the norm but a rarity. Hospitals were no longer simply warehouses for the sick and dying, where little more than comfort could be offered; they had become factories whose product was miracles—"gleaming palaces of medical science," as sociologist Paul Starr puts it, where doctors were in the midst of pioneering work that would soon allow them to mend damaged hearts with open-heart surgery, transplant organs, and routinely postpone death with kidney dialysis." - Shannon Brownlee, Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer (Get the book.)
| "Without Sydenham's insight, scourges such as smallpox and polio would not be history. Modern medicine is anchored on this illness-disease paradigm and rightfully rejoices in its many successes. Unfortunately, this success has a downside.
The illness-disease paradigm has enjoyed nearly 300 years of acceptance and is firmly embedded in our culture. To question its essence is not just heresy; it is irrational. However, to assume this paradigm is without shortcomings is ignorance. What do we do when the disease that underlies the illness remains indeterminate despite modern diagnostics?" - Nortin M. Hadler MD, Worried Sick: A Prescription for Health in an Overtreated America (Get the book.)
| "The eradication of smallpox, the polio vaccine, organ transplantation, penicillin, the ability to control asthma and surgically correct defects in an infant's plum-sized heart, and all the other milestones in medical science gave us a sense of medicine's power and beauty; they imbued the century with a feeling of hope. Medicine seemed to lift us from the sordid, bloody brutishness of injury and disease that was an inescapable part of life for most of human history." - Shannon Brownlee, Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer (Get the book.)

| "Both faced the same early epidemics of smallpox and measles, the same political instability, the same stormy third century. At the dawning of the sixth century, the Chinese empire, like Justinian's, faced a similar loss of traditional land to barbarians (the so-called Sixteen Kingdoms of northern China) and reconstituted itself in an eerily similar way, led by an emperor of enormous talent and peasant birth named Yang Chien.f
Only afterward, "historical developments in these two regions began to diverge permanently."35 The reasons were, frankly, demonic." - William Rosen, Justinian's Flea: The First Great Plague and the End of the Roman Empire (Get the book.)

| "In the eighteenth century, Jenner devised a way to protect people from the scourge of smallpox. As a humble country practitioner in the small town of Gloucestershire, England, he observed that by inoculating someone with the cowpox virus you could confer immunity against the more deadly smallpox virus. As a result of his discovery, which was initially rejected by the arrogant Royal Medical Society, millions of lives were saved every year thereafter." - Russell L. Blaylock, M.D., Health and Nutrition Secrets (Get the book.)
| "Cowpox, for example, causes only a very mild infection in people, but its structure is so close to that of smallpox that the antibodies our immune systems produce to fight cowpox will also work against smallpox. Without having the right-fitting, preformed antibodies, viral attackers can make us sick before our immune system has time to generate the antibodies we need to fight back.
Now, here's where it really gets interesting. There's a massive number of potential microbial attackers out there, and our bodies produce a specific antibody to fight back against each and every one." - Dr. Sharon Moalem, Survival of the Sickest: A Medical Maverick Discovers Why We Need Disease (Get the book.)
| "Mass vaccination with live smallpox particles, to protect against a non-existent threat, is hysteria at its finest. The fact that FDA approval was not required for the vaccine is inconsequential. But, hey, the pharmaceuticals made money. Lest you forget, the corporate ties between Eli Lilly and the President are numerous: President George W.'s father was a Lilly board member; Mitch Daniels, a former Lilly executive, is now the White House Budget Director; and Sidney Taurel, Lilly's CEO, serves on the Homeland Security Council.

| "In the twentieth century, smallpox alone killed an estimated 300 million people. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, smallpox killed the emperors of Japan and Burma, as well as kings and queens of Europe. Queen Mary of England died of smallpox in 1694; Louis XV of France, Joseph I of Germany, and Peter II of Russia also died from the same disease.

| "Better research and an ever-expanding arsenal of drugs has virtually eliminated diseases like polio and smallpox that once ruined or even ended lives, and terrified just about everybody.
The current focus of medicine is to use high-tech approaches to develop new drugs and medical procedures. Despite the benefit for patients, this approach leads to a problem: some of the lower-tech means of treating patients—the art of medicine that allows the doctor to hear the patient—fall by the wayside." - Benjamin H. Natelson, M.D., Your Symptoms Are Real: What to Do When Your Doctor Says Nothing Is Wrong (Get the book.)
| "It has been found to act as an antimicrobial agent against at least 140 infectious diseases, among them: anthrax, athlete's foot, and urinary tract infections, Epstein-Barr virus, herpes, hepatitis, viral meningitis, pneumonia, salmonella, smallpox, tuberculosis, vaginal yeast infection, and many more. Olive leaf extract is taken in capsule form.
Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is made from Australian tea tree leaves. Australian Aborigines have used it for centuries by applying crushed leaves to heal cuts, bruises, and skin infections and by inhaling vapors from crushed leaves to treat colds." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

| "One example of a medical breakthrough ignored by the medical mainstream was the development of the smallpox vaccine. smallpox was mankind's worst scourge, killing a larger percentage of previous populations than any other disease.
In 1789, a British doctor named Edward Jenner performed an experiment that laid the foundation for the eradication of smallpox. Jenner tested this hypothesis by inoculating his own son with material obtained from a cowpox lesion. Six weeks later, his son proved resistant when challenged with material from a smallpox lesion." - The Life Extension Editorial Staff, Disease Prevention and Treatment (Get the book.)
