Raising a Vaccine Free Child

Book Review

The immense publicity over the lack of safety and efficacy testing for the Covid clot shots has led a growing number of parents to look more closely at routine childhood vaccination. Many are horrified to learn that none of the childhood vaccines have been safety tested, either. In fact as director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease Dr Anthony Fauci opposed safety testing for the childhood vaccines. He claimed it would be unfair to the children in the control group (ie who received the placebo).

Two well-designed studies published since the release of Lyall’s book reveal that unvaccinated children suffer far fewer problems than vaccinated children with allergies (especially food allergies), ear and sinus infections, asthma and autoimmune illnesses. It’s believed the aluminum adjuvant used in child vaccines is extremely toxic to gut bacteria (which are essential to a strong immune system) in infants and young children, especially as the US vaccine schedule requires over 60 vaccines by age 5.

My favorite part of this book describes the various adult illnesses prevented by common febrile childhood infections.

• Numerous German studies show that febrile infectious childhood diseases protect against cancer.
• A Swiss study found them protective against all cancers except breast cancer.
• Measles, rubella and mumps protect against ovarian cancer. A 2010 metanalysis of all existing studies revealed a 19% in ovarian cancer in women who had mumps in childhood.
• Enterovirus and herpes simplex infections, as well as chlamydia pneumonia reduce the risk of breast cancer.
• Measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox and glandular fever (mononucleosis) increase the risk of heart disease. Measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox and glandular fever reduce heart disease risk. With two childhood illnesses, risk is reduced by 40%, with four by 60%, six by 90%.
• Measles reduces the risk of Parkinson’s Disease.
• Chicken pox (in unvaccinated children) reduces the risk of eczema, asthma and hayfever.
• Measles (in unvaccinated children) reduces the risk of asthma.

Lydall also reports on individual case studies in which measles infection cleared up severe psoriasis in a child and rheumatoid arthritis in a 65-year old and seven-year old. Likewise measles and rubella infection have cured or caused remission in pediatric nephrotic syndrome.

Other important chapters cover the danger of fever suppression, natural and homeopathic treatment of severe childhood diseases, such as pertussis, tetanus and diphtheria,* and the link between infant vaccination and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS – aka Crib Death).

According to research Lydall cites, fever is essential for the immune system to function properly. Moreover acetominophen has specific anti-immune effects: according to research, it cripples basophils and eosinopihils (disease-fighting white blood cells) and makes chicken pox spots more itchy, as well as causing the illness to last longer.

Lydall also reviews a number of so-called “scientific” studies that allegedly “prove” that vaccines don’t cause crib death. The main problem with most of them is their failure to clearly distinguish between SIDS and other common causes of sudden infant death.

*This is information is essential even for parents of vaccinated children. Limited available research indicates that neither pertussis nor tetanus vaccine prevent these illnesses in 100% of children.
