  • Vaccines have been a pretty hot issue for decades now, and increasingly so with the rollout of the new COVID vaccines. But must they be? What do the detractors say about vaccines, and do their points have any legitimacy? Let's cut through some of them and show how they amount to chemophobia at best, and lies perpetuated from con men at worst. If you are one who has ever lent credence to figures like Andrew Kaufman or Andrew Wakefield, please watch this, as those men and many others are lining their pockets with the lies they've told you. Just 30 minutes of easy-to-understand explanations will help anyone see that, regardless of prior education.

      I think vaccine hesitancy is a good thing. Vaccine paranoia is a problem however. Vaccines like any medicine aren’t inherently side effect free and the chief principle of both medicine is benefit vs harm. For instance, we’re not getting vaccinated for cholera bc the benefit is too little compared to the potential harm. It’s not just good but necessary to view things through the lens of benefit-harm weighing. I think it’s a misconception that skepticism is a bad or unscientific thing, it’s a fundamental in performing science on the contrary. Only ideas that can hold their own past skepticism survive which is also why vaccines have survived. The problems arise when people behave irrationally through paranoia and hysteria, not when people are skeptical.

    As a parent of a child with Autism, I'm grateful for your simple explanation of the "vaccine causes autism" I'd read up on it upon my son's diagnosis, as people were telling me I'd caused his autism by vaccinating him. The problem is the signs of autism start to appear around the same time certain immunizations are due. It really is sad we have access to more information than ever before, but are too stupid to know what to do with it.

      It’s unfortunate people were so unkind. All we parents just do the best we can with the information we are given and it’s not our faults that we are lied to by powerful interests . Lots of parents have reversed their kids’ diagnoses of autism with dietary changes and heavy metal detox. Focus on your child’s health first and foremost and watch the symptoms diagnosed as autism disappear! It can be a challenge because so much crap food is engineered to be addictive but it can be done. I know this for certain.

      @@iadhdki9535 As someone with autism, you are wrong. Autism is not something that can be reversed, nor would you want to reverse it. It is a genetic condition that alters the structure and pathways of the brain. Nothing you do will cause or stop the presentation of autism. The reason the symptoms seem to get less with age is that autistic people learn to mask their traits in order to avoid rejection by society. You probably know people with autism and have no idea. As a society we need to stop the stigmatization of autism and other neurodivergent conditions and accept people for who they are.

      The reason for that is because of how conspiracy theories work.
      By definition a conspiracy theory cannot be falsified. Therefore, it is impossible to prove a conspiracy theory wrong. You can provide evidence to suggest their outcome is very unlikely, but you really cannot prove them, out right wrong.
      The same actually applies to a scientific theory. Scientific theories forbid certain elements or aspects. As a result, when scientists conduct research, they aren't trying to support their theory.
      Let me give you a prime example of what I mean from the one and only James Randy.
      Imagine that you believe in Santa Claus and we are having a discussion about his existence. You ask me to prove that he doesn't exist. I take you up on that and fly to the North Pole. I look high and low, however, he isn't there. No lapland, no elves, no rain deer and no Santa.
      I record my observations and come to the conclusion that he is not real.
      I come back and present you with the evidence supporting the idea that he doesn't exist. Your response is, "well Santa is magic, he simply turned himself and Lapland invisible upon your arrival."
      That doesn't mean that's what actually happened. But, I can't prove that he didn't just turn invisible.
      In other words, conspiracies are based on confirmation bias. An individual who believes in a conspiracy theory wants it to be true. They will twist and bend evidence to suit their narrative. If you try to prove a scientific theory by looking for proof of your theory, you run the risk of doing the same.
      That's why criminal investigations are based purely on the evidence. In reality, criminal investigators will not make up stories based on evidence they will just look at evidence from a surface level. This is because, they run the risk of bending the narrative if they don't.
      Conspiracy nuts that see this video will make their own explanations for why their view is correct and adhere to confirmation bias.

      The coronaviruses simply don't work for vaccinations using the same methods as other vaccines, learned by trial and error what works. So they had to find another way. Maybe comparable to what weight loss/control methods work for a person. It varies.

      mRNA is a new vaccine technology that has transformed the management of infectious disease. There’s no way that the older methods can compete with the molecular precision and timelines of getting a vaccine into arms. Vaccines for influenza have been produced in fertilized chicken eggs in the past, and it’s a primitive and costly way to go. It takes billions of eggs, for one which must be set aside months prior to influenza season. Once the virus is inoculated in the eggs, all the eggs have to be harvested for virus, and all egg protein and contaminants must be purified away, and the virus inactivated. Despite this, egg proteins have sometimes been present at levels high enough to cause immune reaction in patients. mRNA is here to stay and will replace not only conventional vaccine platforms for infectious disease, but also allows for vaccines against cancer and other conditions.

      Indeed, a good recent example is Thunderf00t's video on SpaceX.
      In an attempt to try to show that "SpaceX isn't all that great", he examines the NASA paper "The Recent Large Reduction in Space Launch Cost" from 2018 which compares the cost to launch the now retired Space Shuttle versus a modern Falcon 9. In the video, everything points towards SpaceX being cheaper than the Shuttle and in the end, it is a meandering video with a lot of speculation which doesn't really prove any particular point.
      Yet the takeaway for some of his viewers is "wow... I never knew SpaceX was so bad!" because they are pre-disposed to thinking Thunderf00t is a reliable, unbiased source. I think this recent video has proven that otherwise.

      I too agree that vaccine makers should never have been granted blanket immunity against lawsuits (by President Reagan in 1986). Though we vaccinated our daughter in late 90's (with no injuries), my views changed in 2015 when my healthy 7mo old dog died within hours of her 7-in-1 jab. I now dread all needles. I would rather take risk in getting the actual infection/disease naturally and allow our immune system to fight it off organically. My three remaining dogs haven't been to a vet in 8yrs. I pay attention to what I feed them (no processed crap). I am of the firm belief that man will never really be able to fully understand the immune system (because our bodies behave in highly complex ways once we breach the closed-loop system to study the process). I am not anti-science; but I am definitely anti-$cience, funded solely by profiteering mobs of Wall Street. I hope to one day start trusting science without fearing it. At the moment, I am s#it scared of all synthetic drugs and invasive procedures. If I get seriously injured in an accident, I may not have any other choice.

    My own personal experience has made me a vaccine advocate. When I was young there was a very real chance of catching one of the highly contagious diseases that had killed people for centuries.
    One of my friends had polio, another diphtheria and both of my parents had tuberculosis. Thus we regarded vaccines as a blessing and got our jabs in school.
    Out of the hundreds I knew who got multiple vaccinations over the years none suffered any serious side effects and these deadly diseases have been largely wiped out.
    I also find it ironic that anti-vaxers use technology developed through science to denigrate science while having no knowledge about science.

      But the CDC did hire a third-party to study if they're in the right; turns out the the third-party stated in federal court that "given the heavy metals in the American diet as well as a large dose of multiple vaccines; it's HIGHLY LIKELY that it vary well COULD push children and some adults over the threshold, but further testing would be needed."
      This guy is an influencer and there are MANY people IN THIS FEILD of whom have studied further then this self proclaimed professor that holds a bachelors degree in chemistry. And these many people in this medical business that he made a TH-cam topic, have come forward expressing GREAT CONCERN.
      A smart person would look at all sources, listen to all points, dismiss immediately anyone who trys to shame, categories, or name calls people into believing them such as the above big pharma influencer.
      Its dangerous not allowing people to make decisions for themselves and their families on matters of THEIR OWN HEALTH.
      I recommend standing up for our people and discontinue any notification from this guy and just lose all his videos for what he's pushing without being objective, for categorizing folks, name calling (anti-vaxers, etc..), and misinforming as well as telling people to ridicule others for their thoughts and concerns.
      Why not dig in and discuss the whistle blowers, the THOUSANDS of professionals whom have "great concern" the peer reviewed studies that have numbers like "1 in 800"?!
      Does anyone here know what that means?
      Are you reliant on this asshole for your do diligence?

EVERYONE is on this spectrum, people with autism are just higher on said spectrum. If there was any drug that affected autism, I would have taken it already. The only drugs that affect the brian which is not the way people think, are addictive drugs and neurological poisons. Neuro poisons/venom attack the brain/nervous system and cause it to feel so much pain that you die or causes paralysis. You already know what addictive drugs do so I don't need to explain this.

Common neurotypical diets do not contain enough "energy" to support the increased connections. Apsie brains are literally being starved due to incorrect diets which will increase the severity of the symptoms. Try following a Keto diet, fat is a better fuel for the brain and take l-glutamine to help increase GABA production, you can also eat various foods to help GABA as well.

I'm with you, that vaccines do have side effects, but the benefits outweigh them by far. But I still think we should talk about the side effects and not deny their existence, this only hurts those affected and gives the wackjobs a talking point. So here goes my personal story, read if you want :)
    I got my second shot of the Moderna vaccine after receiving AstraZeneca for the first. After two days I started having chest pain and my left arm went partially numb. In the hospital blood tests showed a highly elevated troponin level, indicating damage to my heart muscle. The levels went down after 2 days and I did not experience any severe longterm damage, but still experience chest pain when exercising and in stressful situations due to scarring. I don't like to talk about it to friends and colleagues because most either think I'm a antiscience idiot or I find out that they are.

Of course, they have done studies to ascertain the toxicity of the dosage of aluminum right? The only study that has been done and cited only tested the toxicity of INGESTED aluminum in adults. They never tested injection toxicity and never did any toxicity tests with children or infants at all. If you seriously try to equate effects of ingestion and injection then you have left the bounds of a scientific conversation.

    My understanding is that the "gut feeling" that vaccines caused autism was due in large part to the temporal proximity of vaccinations and the onset of recognizeable autism symptoms. From what I understand about autism, children don't start exhibiting obvious signs of autism until they about 2-3 years old. This is when they start walking, talking, and performing other motor and intellectual tasks that autistic children have trouble learning. The administration of some of the major childhood vaccinations (such as polio, TDAP boosters, and hepatitis) are done during this same time period. So parents would get the vaccines, then in the following months, start noticing that their child is is having trouble learning to walk, talk, etc., and since the vaccination was a "major medical procedure" that happened recently, they assume the two are linked. When in reality, the child was already autistic (from birth), and would have started developing noticeable symptoms at that time regardless of vaccinations.

  • @danieljohnson1213

    Great presentation. I am someone who is vaccine hesitant. A lot of this stems from lapses in objectivity and critical thinking from the medical community and media. For instance, the first thing I did when presented with the idea that there could be a problem with the current vaccine schedule given to children was to ask my general practitioner: hey doc, could there be anything wrong with the current vaccine schedule, in theory? Without hesitating to even consider my question he said no. That is not a reasonable or scientific answer and it unnerved me. I saw it for what it was. Advocacy mixed with annoyance at what he sees as anti-science. He was doing his part to combat the "stupidity." But the entire conversation around this issue is full of people telling other people who have questions to shut up and stop being morons.
    People making videos like this would do better not to paint skeptics or questioners as morons and should not use a mocking tone. Questioning and skepticism are essential parts of a scientific process and worldview. They should never be suppressed. This has only gotten worse with Covid. The mainstream media's mandate to correct for what they see as the stupid anti-vax movement has ruined their objectivity and tainted their judgement. A recent episode of Fresh Air with Terry Gross illustrates this. She was interviewing a person billed as a vaccine expert. In the intro she noted that his child has autism. And yet he is an advocate for vaccines for children. Supposedly this was proof of his intellectual honesty. What she didn't mention until a ways into the interview, before quickly sweeping past it, was that he was an owner in a company working very hard to bring a covid vaccine to market. He was completely incentivized to be pro-vaccine. Not only did Gross not think this would make him an inappropriate subject on the matter, she didn't even seem to acknowledge the apparent conflict of interest. And on and on.
    My questions about this video:
    When he says in passing that the link between vaccines and autism were disproven, what does that mean?
    What do you say to the theory that vaccines might not contain a dangerous level of metal in their doses alone but that some people may already have high metal levels in their body from their environment and other factors and a vaccine could push them over the threshold into toxicity?
    Is it valid to be concerned that mnra vaccines, while they are not a new technology, are being administered to the public for the first time? Isn't it a scientific approach to be cautious about potential long-term effects? Is there anything wrong with the fact that we are vaccinating the control groups, i.e. erasing the controls?
    What does proper vaccine testing in clinical trials even mean?
    If the mrna technology was so airtight long before covid, why wasn't it used to combat other infectious diseases worldwide?
    What about the broader issue that we could create a culture where showing vaccine compliance becomes mandatory for participation in society? The current covid vaccines may be acceptable in theory but there is no way to postulate about future vaccines since they don't exist. I personally find it disturbing to imagine having to get regular injections for the rest of my life. The conversation around questioning the current batch of vaccines has been too strong-handed for my taste. And I know this is as good as it's going to get since this is the first pandemic in the current era. I have to imagine that if regular injections become a new normal, it will become impossible to question in any meaningful way every new vaccine by every new company that is rolled out. This is problematic for me.
    This video illustrates many of the principles and consistent factors at play in the vaccine discussion but only when they support a conclusion of vaccines being an overwhelmingly positive technology. This video does not, however, talk about other constants throughout history, including government mishandling of medical technology and a consistent m.o. of choosing to apologize (when caught) rather than ask permission (thalidomide, agent orange, nuclear weapons testing both underground on U.S. soil and in the stratosphere, meddling in the affairs of other sovereign countries).

      Let's respond to some of your questions:
      1) link between autism and vaccines disproven: it is. Simple. Large-scale studies on the population have shown there is no increase in the rate of autism in vaccinated vs unvaccinated individuals.
      2) the amount of metal (ions) in vaccines is so low that if this were the last drop it would be dwarfed by the many other "last drops"
      3) mRNA vaccines have been used in clinical trials before, with good success. We already have background levels for lots and lots of different conditions from years/decades of data, so it is not really a concern we are 'erasing' the controls, because, again, we already have that control data. We already know the general levels of, say, blood clots
      4) don't know what you mean with this one
      5) This is easily answered: it is expensive technology. You would only use it for severe infectious diseases which (sadly, I might say) are very prevalent in developed countries. Another obvious issue is that we already have vaccines for many infectious diseases, so just making an mRNA-based vaccine would require it to be a lot better than the old vaccines, as the former is so much more expensive than the latter, at least for now.
      6) We already have such a culture for many other things. Walking around naked is in the vast majority of places culturally not acceptable. It is often even *mandatory* to wear clothes. The gliding scale you propose is in itself a gliding scale.

      @@Marco-it2mr Thanks for the reply.
      Regarding #1, that doesn't sound like proof in any meaningful way. A really scientific study has controls. What would be the control factor there? This is the problem with this issue, there is no ethical way to study it or create controls for vaccine trials. Also - and I don't want this to sound too harsh - but it's obnoxious that you wrote "simple." It's not, in fact, simple.
      Regarding #3, I'm not sure how far back the trials go that you're referring to but I think it's safe to say that they don't go far enough back to show long-term results. So even if your point stands that the clinical trials for previous uses of mrna technology had preserved their controls, it's still not long term. But that doesn't speak to the current covid vaccines, for which there is both no long term data and for which the control group is currently being erased.
      Regarding #4, I just don't understand the reasoning behind the studies. Normal scientific studies control for as many variables as possible. Whereas with these vaccine trials, people are either administered a vaccine or a placebo and then asked to go about their lives and see who catches covid. The participants control their exposure, not the people running the experiment. I would assume that many of the people who signed up for the vaccine trials were people with an already high level of anxiety about catching Covid, meaning they would be lowering exposure already. Maybe if the sample sizes are large enough, variables like this don't matter as much. But it just doesn't feel very objective to me.
      Regarding #6, I realize that living in a society requires compromise. And that there is no absolute freedom for anyone. Totally on board with that. But I think we should be concerned with establishing a new paradigm because new paradigms are very hard to turn back. Think of something like income tax, for instance. It was created in 1909. Many people assume it is an idea that goes back to the founding of this country and they also assume that it's always been this way and is beyond questioning. I don't have an opinion on income tax, I'm just pointing out that there is an inertia to reversing large social systems once they've been implemented. Every year people complain about Daylight Savings Time. Nobody has changed it. Every election people complain about the Electoral College System. Nobody changes it. I feel like we are on the verge of creating a culture of permanent forced injections and it is worrisome to me.

      Also, where is there a significant population of non-vaccinated children in the west?

      Horowitz is a dentist, not a medical doctor. He has as much authority to comment on vaccines as I do to comment on cell biology or physics. Furthermore, his published books include such gems as "Healing Celebrations", which discusses healing using scripture. Religious mythology is as toxic to science as misinformation, and should remain separate.
      As for Shannon, this one was really easy. The quote you provided is commonly incorrectly used. A PDF of his original paper shows that the quote is incomplete and has been cherry picked in a way that, without context, gives the illusion of supporting anti-vax narrative.

    👍The widespread fear that vaccines increase the risk of autism originated from a 1997 study whose author has since lost his medical license.
    "After the study was published, it came out that the main author had a financial incentive for the study to be published," Slade says. "After more was learned about the study, the other authors removed their names. That study has also been debunked by many other studies that used larger groups of children."
    The causes of autism and autism spectrum disorders have never been established. But many autism experts are increasingly convinced that autism is determined before birth - well before any vaccinations.

    Wakefield also horribly abused the children during the study, subjecting them to incredibly invasive and traumatic tests, including colonoscopies, which are not recommended for children due to the risk of perforation of the intestinal walls. One kid had *TWELVE PERFORATIONS* by the end. Many of the nurses and doctors working with him were horrified at what he was doing.

      The long term effects of what? The mRNA vaccine? The mRNA degrades and is eliminated by the body after a few days. We can check for this. Everything else in the vaccine has been used in other vaccines for decades. The only long term effects we don't know about are how long it will be effective for combating Covid-19, and the vanishingly small chance that the vaccine will provoke an immune response to non-covid organisms that use a similar spike protein. This would only be a problem if the non-covid organisms were beneficial to humans, but this is why they have clinical trials. To weed out such issues. Since the immune response only takes at most a couple weeks to completely destroy an organism in the body, any major effects from accidentally killing beneficial bacteria would have been discovered by phase 3 trials at the latest. I just got the moderna shot, and the only thing negative effect so far has been a sore arm for a couple days. I've heard some people develop a low grade fever and other flu like symptoms. These are intentional. They are the vaccine provoking an immune response.

    Hey Dave and greetings from healthcare industry. I absolutely love your videos and this one as well was spot on. Yet I want to raise two talking points of this video, and would love your opinions on them.
    1) Back in the 2020 when I sat on the medical info conserning the J&J co.'s Pfizer vaccine that was appointed to the medical professionals by our corresponding agency to FDA, the info was very specific about the issue of the mRNA vaccine not giving protection for the infection per se but instead against the severe form of the infection. The info also included the fact that taking the mRNA vaccination will not stop you from spreading the virus potentially. Later we've seen the jab work in practice having had a +95 % national coverage with two shots not doing the trick and with over 80 % coverage with the third shot still not helping to gain herd immunity. Therefore the only gain with the new vaccines seems to be on personal level if even that.
    2) As a healthcare professional, yet not a microbiologists, there are concerns about the autoimmune system failures. The original vaccines do work exactly as you described but the mRNA vaccines bring up the questions about the body's own cells working their way into making alien protein into the bloodstream. In the autoimmune diseases the body's own immune system attacks the body's own tissues by failing to recognize the tissue correctly - to put it very simply. There have been cases where the mRNA vaccines have caused such incidents where there was no other explaining factor found. Admittedly, there is a personal pick on this one, as I had to be fighting against "the system" for my spouse who got nephritis interstitialis due to the first jab (got confirmed later in the special healthcare after months of fighting). While having to dive into the matter and "specialize" in the kidney diseases (while it's rather far form my own field of work), I found out that there were others as well and similar rare tissue inflammation patients that had had them from the jab.
    To conclude this message I want to stress that I most definitely am on the side of science and I would be working on a whole other field of expertise should the medical science be dismissed in the history, but there are some issues concerning the newest vaccines that we aren't too ready to speak of in very definite sense yet.

      To answer the biology side of things
      For part 2: simplified - A cell has genetic material (DNA) and has mechanisms to express genes in the DNA that code for different kinds of proteins (called protein synthesis, we can go from DNA to mRNA to protein).
      Again simplified - a virus is composed of genetic material (either DNA or RNA depending on the virus) encapsulated by an envelope made of lipids and structural proteins. A virus works by going into a cell and using the host cell's own mechanisms to read it's genetic material to make more of itself synthesizing the virus's proteins and by replicating the its genetic material. The more of itself it can make, the more rapidly it can spread to other cells. As our cells are creating the structural proteins, some of them are presented on the surface of the cell, these proteins are called antigens. Our immune system can recognize that as foreign and create antibodies.
      The mRNA vaccine isolates the genetic material to only the part that codes for the structural proteins (i.e. the part that our immune system can recognize and make antibodies) but not the rest of the virus so it can't spread.
      So either way, the body's own cell mechanisms are being used.
      Part 1: Vaccines themselves aren't fighting the infection, they are triggering our own immune system to create antibodies so we can have a faster response if we were to encounter the same antigens again.

      @@MmEbady Thank you for explaining the very basics that I already know. The issue on mRNA vaccines is that they don't work the same way as the regular vaccines do. So you may disregard that entirely. Since original post, there's come variety of studies which you can check from Google Scholar for example. Start by applying "covid vaccine nephritis". You will find heaps.

      @@smhkd90 And I explained how the mRNA vaccine works using the same mechanisms as a virus does and by logic (and if you already know all this) the same mechanisms as a regular vaccine with dead or weakened virus. So, our own cells are making "alien proteins" in all cases.
      Thanks for the google suggestions, it would be better to get information from experts in the field such as immunologists rather than youtube. But from my limited research, autoimmune adverse events following immunization occurs with other vaccines and aren’t just limited to mRNA vaccines. Some explanations are that it can be from immune response or from adjuvants in the vaccine. Since the COVID virus is also associated with nephritis, it’s most likely from immune response. Good luck on your search for an answer! Hopefully further research can make future vaccines with less side effects.

      If to much of anything can be bad for you, then how did you come to the conclusion that big pharma and the CDC aren't responsible for the SPIKE in autism AFTER rolling together vaccines into ONE large dose.
      The CDC was sued AND LOST that case for lying and NOT sharing all those studies they the CDC never had.
      But the CDC did hire a third-party to study if they're in the right; turns out the the third-party stated in federal court that "given the heavy metals in the American diet as well as a large dose of multiple vaccines; it's HIGHLY LIKELY that it vary well COULD push children and some adults over the threshold, but further testing would be needed."
      This guy is an influencer and there are MANY people IN THIS FEILD of whom have studied further then this self proclaimed professor that holds a bachelors degree in chemistry. And these many people in this medical business that he made a TH-cam topic, have come forward expressing GREAT CONCERN.
      A smart person would look at all sources, listen to all points, dismiss immediately anyone who trys to shame, categories, or name calls people into believing them such as the above big pharma influencer.
      Its dangerous not allowing people to make decisions for themselves and their families on matters of THEIR OWN HEALTH.
      I recommend standing up for our people and discontinue any notification from this guy and just lose all his videos for what he's pushing without being objective, for categorizing folks, name calling (anti-vaxers, etc..), and misinforming as well as telling people to ridicule others for their thoughts and concerns.

    There's a splendid article from the Baffler about 25 years back called "Why Johnny Can't Dissent" which analyzes the "antinomian narrative" in advertising, which is very similar to what you identify as a preference for antiestablishment beliefs. Everywhere you looked in late-twentieth-century media you found these ecstatic memes about "breaking the rules" used as a mechanism to sell people stuff, so that "being a rebel" became a branding exercise associated with certain consumption choices.
    Buying a certain kind of potato chip was supposedly your way to DEFY all the gray-suited normies-- an advertising theme that you can see to this day attached to, say, corporate chain restaurants eating the food of which is supposedly an act of individual defiance against all rules. The article goes into the political effects of this "reflex antinomianism", which have been more than borne out by the subsequent development of internet epistemic silos and the online disinformation economy.
    If you can't find that article by itself, it's in the collection _Commodify Your Dissent: Salvos From the Baffler_ and well worth the time to read.

In a nutshell she sums up how an all meat diet cured her of all the ailments that haunted her throughout her life, as she had many autoimmune and mental health disorders. She claims they tested it on a larger population and apparently there was huge benefits, like people with type 2 diabetes getting off their insulin. Meat is the only form of sustenance that you can survive on solely, is another claim. I personally don't know much about it.
