My Search for Information and Truth.
Perhaps it was luck, I don’t know, but I am old school when it came to finding information. I wanted to do an in-depth search on this topic of vaccination, and how the recommended CDC vaccine schedule came to be. My feet immediately found me at the local library, perusing the titles and taking a brief look at the contents each book held within them. I didn’t want to be one sided, so I grabbed books which covered both sides of the argument. And then I read.
As I read, I took some notes and found what I thought to be the salient points of the arguments. After I had exhausted the resources, I moved to the next local library. And once this was done, I moved on to the next library. After this I felt like I had a decent base for my knowledge, but there were still more difficult and fine points which needed to be explored and explained.
One of these topics was sodium borate. This is a household cleaner and/or insect poison as listed on Google, which is an ingredient in two vaccines currently on the CDC recommended vaccine schedule. The vaccines which contain sodium borate are Gardasil, which is a Hepatitis B vaccine, and Vaqta, a Hepatitis A vaccine.
I wanted to do more research on this topic, so I headed over to the Chemistry Library at Ohio State’s main campus. I worked there many years ago when I was a student and thought the Chem Library would be a good place to find information on a specific chemical. When I arrived at McPherson Lab building, where I once worked in the library, I found myself lost. Where was the library? I wandered around, certain that my memory was faulty, and that I would soon be at my destination.
I looked at the building information. There was no library listed. I asked a few students. They had no idea where the Chemistry Library was. I was confused. I walked over to another building, and there was a security guard who was equipped with a communication device. I strolled over to him, and I asked “Where is the Chemistry Library? There used to be one in McPherson. Where did they move it?” And he got on his radio and asked the dispatcher. The reply came back. “We no longer have a chemistry library.” Then he turned to me and asked, “What information are you looking for?” And I replied, “I would like to find some information on a chemical, sodium borate.” And he communicated my wish to the dispatcher. The reply came back: “You can find information on sodium borate at the Pharmaceutical Library and the Law Library.”
That was a surprise. The Pharmaceutical Library appears to have replaced the Chemistry Library for information on chemicals. Then I thought, “This makes sense. They use sodium borate in vaccines. Sodium borate is a toxin used as insect poison. When people get sick and vaccine injured, they sue the manufacturer. This is why they have information on sodium borate specifically in the Pharmaceutical and Law Libraries.”
The systemic removal of dissenting information regarding vaccines at large universities.
I was already at my alma mater, I thought, so why not stroll down to the Main Library, and see if I could dig up some information on sodium borate there. The Main Library at Ohio State was once purported to be the third largest library in the United States. I thought to give it a shot. I walked over there and asked for some help. They said they didn’t have any information specifically on sodium borate. Then I asked about vaccines, and they directed me, as I recall, to the 10th floor. After I found the section on vaccines, I looked through the books they had on the shelf on this topic. Now, mind you, this is after I had been to a few public libraries combing through their books for vaccine information. What I found at the OSU Main Library was surprising. There were only a handful of books on vaccines, and the few books there were all pro-vaccine types of books. And one specifically was over the top in that way. It was like reading something which said, “Vaccines have been proven safe and effective. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either foolish or an antivaxxer who is ignorant on the subject.”
Then it dawned on me. Ohio State is a big school. They probably receive a lot of money from Big Pharma. Big Pharma most likely pays for a lot of their research funding, equipment, grants, and other things. The library seemed to have been cleansed of all information which may rouse an opinion contrary to the belief that all vaccines are good. As I thought about this, I lamented, “Isn’t college supposed to be a place where you question things, and you strive to find the truth?” If you were a college student and attempted to do research in the Main Library at Ohio State on vaccines, using the books they had on the shelf, you would have no choice but to write a paper favoring vaccines of all kinds, all of the time, because there is no dissenting literature. A shame. People need counter arguments to find the truth.
The difficulty in finding dissenting viewpoints on vaccination on the internet.
After this attempt in finding information at Ohio State, I tried to comb through the internet to find useful information. This is possible, but you really have to be on your toes and alert. As I combed through the articles, I noticed that the vast majority of internet articles were supportive of the CDC, FDA, and Big Pharma’s side that explains why vaccines are important, and why you should believe in them and get vaccinated. The numbers of articles were overwhelmingly tilted in favor of a pro-vaccine argument. It makes sense. Big Pharma has big money that pays for internet ads. Big Tech bows to Big Pharma money and will agree to whatever its master says is misinformation, and they will attempt to “clean up the misinformation,” or to bury, delete, or mark as misinformation any articles that are against Big Pharma and their products. Big Tech gets advertising money from Big Pharma, so they are paid to be their servant.
Government agencies, which include the FDA, CDC, and other three lettered agencies have many people in their organizations from Big Pharma, or who are going into Big Pharma as soon as they retire from their government jobs. These organizations have been corrupted, and there are too many conflicts of interest to count. These government agencies’ internet sites and other related places of information are filled with information, opinion, and conjecture which are interwoven with some factual details to make it appear as if the conclusions of these organizations are based on fact and science alone, and they attempt to appear impartial, but they are not. These sources of information are favorable to Big Pharma, and these organizations help Big Pharma to increase their spread of misinformation, which enables Big Pharma to make more money. This misinformation and collusion of these government agencies with Big Pharma enable the pharmaceutical companies to more easily get their drugs and vaccines approved by the FDA.
It appeared obvious what was happening in the media, which I call Big Tech for simplicity. It seems obvious that Big Government, Big Pharma, and Big Tech are in collusion with each other, and are trying to sway the citizens of this country with massive amounts of information tilted in their favor, so that Big Pharma can sell more of its products.
Money pays for advertising. Advertising is effective, persuasive, and often deceptive. Everyone in this country, including me, has been brainwashed to a certain degree by the steady flow of material aimed at us. Drug ads work just as well as Pizza ads.
The pursuit of money and power. Big Pharma has money, and they want to make more money. They pay those in government through lobbyists, which include our lawmakers that we elected, to do their bidding, and to establish laws, rules, and regulations which will pad their bottom line of profit. Also, Big Pharma pays Big Tech for advertising. Big Pharma companies are one of the biggest, if not the biggest, advertisers in the country. Advertising money pays the bills for Big Tech and their media, and this includes TV, newspapers, internet, medical journals, billboards, et al. The end result of this collusion between these three great powers is the brainwashing of society which sees this information over and over again and comes to believe it is true. Many beliefs and opinions we hold were not made by critical thinking, but by repeated immersion in our commercial culture here in the United States.
If someone asks you, “What do you think of xxx?” You go to your smart phone or the internet and do a random search, you are likely going to be steered by those who control power, money, and advertising into an opinion which Big Pharma, Big Tech, and Big Government wants you to have and believe in. Or if you go to your news source on your favorite type of media, then you will likely be steered in this way also. Do you want to be steered in the way you think, or would you like to form your own opinions? It is difficult to gain information on a topic, where one can defend what they believe. With so much information out there pushing people one way or another, it is no wonder why America is so bifurcated in its beliefs. Few people are taking time to think for themselves, to research a topic in depth, and to consider counter arguments in an unbiased manner. Most people like the easy information at their fingertips, even if it is misinformation.
After this realization, I felt lucky that I did research the old school way at the local libraries. Big Pharma money has not taken over these places, and there is still some dissenting information. If I had started to do my research on the internet, or at a large college campus, where the tentacles of Big Pharma power hold dominance, I feel that I would probably have been lost in there for a long time before I was able to arrive at my conclusions. Sometimes the old ways are the best ways.
The systematic brainwashing of the people of the United States by Big Pharma and its minions in government and the media wants people to trust them, and to believe that they are good stewards of people’s healthcare, children’s healthcare, and the planet’s healthcare in general. After all, didn’t our scientists help eradicate smallpox from the earth? Weren’t the commercial processes for creating antibiotics on a large scale achieved here in the United States, and didn’t this save many lives in the Second World War? Wasn’t polio vaccine invented by American scientists, which no longer exists in the western hemisphere? Didn’t our scientific community prove to everyone in the United States and the world that our system of scientific research and innovation are the best?
Once Big Pharma had our trust and had us in their grips because of past successes, it became easy to manipulate us into believing things that were not true, such as:
1> It is a good idea to vaccinate newborns after birth for hepatitis b, which is not a contagious disease for infants and toddlers, or even a disease which infants can contract from others. Newborns can only contract this disease from their hep b infected mother during childbirth. Therefore, only newborns of hep b infected mothers should receive hep b vaccine.
2> Since vaccines have been proven to be good for mankind, and by their use have conquered two major diseases in smallpox and polio, that we should take vaccines for all the remaining minor contagious diseases, regardless of the risks that taking many more vaccines and the toxins within them might bring to us and our children. The end result of this belief and policy is that too many vaccines are being given too soon and are causing too many problems in too many children. This has contributed to the meteoric rise in autism, ADHD, eczema, asthma, and other allergic disorders in children which did not exist or were extremely rare 50 years ago.
3> That science is so much more advanced than it was even 50 years ago, and years of testing and proving that vaccines were safe and effective is a fact beyond reproach, that now the great American scientific community can engineer vaccines from scratch within months that are both safe and effective. Big Pharma, Big Government, Big Tech and their misinformation have deceived us. Progress in vaccine science has not progressed to such a degree that it is possible to produce a safe and effective vaccine within months. Extensive short- and long-term testing of vaccines are still required to determine safety and effectiveness of vaccines.
Pharmaceutical advertising has contaminated our society and our beliefs. Big Pharma money has induced the spread of misinformation. Big Pharma, Big Government, and Big Tech have deceived us, have led us to a pasture of their choosing, and they are feeding us information which aids them in the collection of more money and power. They are using this power over us to affect our beliefs, and to control us and our way of thinking. It is time to end this. Only New Zealand and the United States allow drug advertising. The rest of the world had the foresight and understanding that this advertising would pervert our thinking and beliefs and then allow Big Pharma to rule over us.
This research on drug and vaccine ads, and their effects on the people, the media, and the lawmakers of the United States led me to this solution:
Solution #14. BAN CONSUMER DRUG AND VACCINE ADVERTISING. There should be no direct to consumer (DTC) advertising of vaccines and/or drugs. DTC marketing and advertising of pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines are not in the public’s interest and should be made illegal. When advertising dollars are at work, then TV stations, newspapers, medical journals, radio stations, and all other commercial media companies become pressured by these Big Pharma companies to displace truth with what will be most profitable to the media company, which means what will benefit their advertisers. The promotion of these products is often deceptive, and predominately shows potential benefits while discounting any adverse effects. Only the United States and New Zealand currently allow these types of ads. The other countries of the world had the foresight to realize that allowing Big Pharma to advertise their products would grant them too much power over us, which they could then abuse. Money which is currently used to promote drugs and vaccines increases the cost of these products, while at the same time limits the money available to do research for the safety of these products. Drug and vaccine advertising does not benefit the public welfare.
Solution #14 and arguments concerning drug and vaccine advertising are explained in much more detail in my book: Louis Pasteur Condemns Big Pharma: Vaccines, Drugs, and Healthcare in the United States. The link for my book can be found here:
