Infant Deaths May Be Related to Vaccinations

Due to ignorance or denial on the part of the medical establishment, it is very possible that some infant deaths that are classified as shaken baby syndrome or sudden infant death syndrome may actually be caused by toxic reactions to vaccinations. The information posted below discusses many issues related to the vaccination of our children, often against parents best wishes. A link to an article that covers the technical evidence pertaining to infant fatalities as related to immunizations is also included.

Parents must be on the alert regarding their rights to make informed choices about the administration of vaccines to their children. As recent cases have indicated, such as the forced immunization of children in Maryland (complete with armed guards and attack dogs to ensure compliance), the political climate is currently one that supports a governmental iron fist, to the point that the rights of those opposed to vaccinations are routinely and illegally violated. In addition, as the article below points out, many parents who question the protocol for the immunization of their children are simply asked to find medical services elsewhere. Victories have been won, such as the reversal of an executive order issued by the governor of Texas that would have forced school-aged girls to be exposed to the HPV vaccine, but due vigilance must be maintained. The enemies against health care freedoms are formidable and they have deep pockets, so it is reasonable to expect that other showdowns will surface in the near future.


Vaccines & Infant Death (SBS): Pediatrician Speaks Out on NVIC's The Doctor's Corner
by Barbara Loe Fisher

The Doctor's Corner, sponsored by the National Vaccine Information Center, is a new internet forum at www.NVIC.org for pediatricians to publish referenced articles and analyses evaluating vaccine risks. Today, F. Edward Yazbak, M.D., FAAP, has published an analysis, "Multiple Vaccinations and Shaken Baby Syndrome," that reviews the relationship between administration of multiple vaccines to infants who develop serious adverse events or die and parents being subsequently charged with "Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS).

Dr. Yazbak provides a review of death reports of infants 6 months of age or younger to the federal Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS). He describes individual case histories and the history of vaccine deaths, which are misdiagnosed as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), and discusses vaccine deaths which may be misdiagnosed as Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS).

When an infant dies after vaccination, pediatricians are often reluctant to consider the possibility that the vaccine(s) recently given to keep the child well have killed the child. In our 1985 book, DPT: A Shot in the Dark, Harris Coulter and I described the misdiagnosis of infant deaths, which have occurred within 24 to 72 hours after DPT vaccination, as SIDS. The fact that coroners often misdiagnose vaccine deaths as SIDS is further evidenced by compensation awards made in the U.S. Court of Claims to parents, whose babies died within hours of DPT vaccination, but the coroner initially diagnosed the death as "SIDS."

Dr. Yazbak's article about the misdiagnosis of vaccine deaths and injuries as "Shaken Baby Syndrome" and the subsequent persecution and imprisonment of innocent parents is an important one.

We are all obviously unanimous in our condemnation of any form of child abuse and our conviction that any abuser should be punished to the full extent of the law.

It is well known that vaccines can cause brain inflammation and catastrophic brain damage in some children. Until all of the biological mechanisms for vaccine injury and death are fully understood and described in the scientific literature, parents should be given the benefit of the doubt when babies die after vaccination.

The Doctor's Corner is a public service of the National Vaccine Information Center which provides a place for enlightened pediatricians to discuss how and why vaccines cause reactions, injuries and death; why some children may be at higher risk than others for suffering a vaccine reaction; and how vaccine risks can be reduced.

Pediatricians will also examine the relationship between infectious disease, vaccination and how early childhood experiences with both can influence immune function.

The National Vaccine Information Center has long supported the forging of a more enlightened partnership between pediatricians and parents when it comes to making vaccination decisions for children. Parents in the 21st century are becoming educated about vaccination and want something more from pediatricians than inflexible administration of one-size- fits-all vaccine policies that fail to respect bio-diversity or the informed consent ethic.

NVIC's The Doctor's Corner is a place for intelligent, open-minded, compassionate and courageous pediatricians to demonstrate that they understand and are prepared to respond in a different way to parental concerns about vaccination.

ABOUT THE DOCTOR'S CORNER

Every day, mothers take their infants and children to pediatricians for routine check-ups and vaccinations. A trip to the pediatrician's office should be an opportunity to learn more about vaccination, as many mothers and fathers are seeking a partnership with their pediatrician that involves shared decision-making about which vaccines their children will receive and when.

However, many parents, who ask their pediatricians questions about vaccine risks or want to change the vaccine schedule for their child, are instead being dismissed from the pediatric practice. Parents report that some pediatricians won't screen out high risk children, such as those who are sick at the time of vaccination, and are even more reluctant to acknowledge that health deterioration after previous vaccinations may have been caused by vaccine reactions. Instead of being reassured that everything is being done to minimize vaccine reaction risks for their child, too many parents are being threatened with loss of medical care for their child if they do not agree to the one-size-fits-all vaccine policy approach.

The Doctor's Corner sponsored by the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) is a place for enlightened pediatricians to publish referenced articles and stimulate dialogue about how and why vaccines cause reactions, injuries and death; why some individuals may be at higher risk than others for suffering a vaccine reaction; and ways in which vaccine risks may be reduced. The discussion on NVIC's The Doctor's Corner will also examine the relationship between infectious disease and vaccination and how early childhood experiences with both can influence immune function which may, or may not, lead to long term good health.
