Did the polio vaccine really save a generation?

Radical healthy living

The iron lung. The polio vaccine. It’s the holy grail of proof for vaccine necessity. I used to wonder about this. As someone who chose the non-vaccine route, I was just as intrigued by the polio question as everyone else. I chose not to vaccinate my kids simply because it didn’t make perfect sense to me, and I wanted to do more research before the injections, not after. So with polio, I had to know: did it really save an entire generation’s lives? I didn’t want to be on the wrong side of something so big and important!

What I found was not shocking at all, if you question EVERYTHING like I do.

So I read the research on the polio vaccine and the history of polio itself, the patients, the iron lung, and more. It’s a long, convoluted history, so if you don’t like reading long reports like these, I’ll sum it up for you:

1. Spray incredibly poisonous pesticides (lead arsenate and later DDT) on fruit orchards and other crops in late 18th and early 19th centuries

2. Said pesticide runoff affects nearby lakes and streams, and ultimately, the public water supply (as do ALL pesticides — HELLO, don’t even get me started)

3. See a sharp increase in paralytic patients after direct exposure to these lakes and streams (see FDR)

4. Call it “poliomyelitis” and develop a vaccine for it

5. Quietly outlaw the use of said pesticides in the U.S. at the same time the vaccine is introduced, and redefine what polio actually is.

6. Inject “poliomyelitis” into consumers to convince them they will not get polio

7. Rename the symptoms again as AFM (“polio-like illness”) in the 21st century

8. Convince multiple generations that a vaccine eradicated “polio”

“The suffering of polio’s victims is honored by learning all of its lessons, including the danger of environmental toxins and the perils of ignoring their role in modern disease; the risk of focusing all of our energy on vaccinations as magic bullets, and the fundamental ethical obligation to search for the truth without fear or favor. Only then can we work out the real nature of illnesses that confront us here and now, ranging from autism to Parkinson’s to the persistence of poliomyelitis itself. Only then can we begin to prevent such disasters as The Age of Polio.”

AFM, according to the CDC: Most patients had onset of AFM between August and October, with increases in AFM cases every two years since 2014. At this same time of year, many viruses commonly circulate, including enteroviruses, and will be temporally associated with AFM. Most AFM cases are children (over 90%) and have occurred in 48 states and DC. What generally happens in the lives of children in August? Back-to-school shots. You do the math.

Read the articles. Read the cited links. Think outside iron lung photos. There’s always more to the story.

Copywork is a valuable language arts teacher. By simply copying the writings of other men and women, we are able to mimic correct spelling and punctuation, proper grammar usage and sentence structure, and gain a wider exposure to vocabulary in its context. Choosing meaningful text adds another layer of learning by seeing, reading, and writing words that matter. Copywork works well as a supplement to your favorite language arts curriculum, or as a stand-alone review of English mechanics. “Rather than society influencing the home, it ought to be the Christian home influencing society. Righteousness brings beauty of character. Character creates harmony in the home. Harmony in the home brings order to civilization, which makes peace on earth." (Karen Andreola) And Christians are called science-deniers. My son and six of his friends graduated from homeschooling today. There's always some discussion going around this time of year about whether you should finish a curriculum, or end the school year because you're ready. I'm going to give you my two cents and disagree with the popular refrain. Todays post for the #villagewellchats is about being patient when you can’t do all the self-sufficient things. 👈🏻 That’s me. I’m a homemaker at heart, love the land, the garden, and the DIY, homemade life. While you're choosing your curriculum for next year, keep my Knowledge Keepers series in mind! There are 11 books in the series now, and several include free study guides: I will be sharing homeschooling encouragement near Tulsa next Tuesday! Education is important. Discipleship is important. When you have to choose, choose discipleship first.
