The mandatory Hepatitis B Vaccine which is given to infants at birth is provided for profit alone. It does not benefit the infants it is given to. In this posting, I shall explain why I believe this is true. Allow me to start by telling you how one may contract Hepatitis B, so that you will understand that it is as difficult to catch as AIDS. As with AIDS, the main people at risk are drug users, and people with multiple sexual partners. It may be transmitted in one of the following scenario's:
- Sexual intercourse
- Being born of a mother who is infected
- The use of unclean hypodermic needles
The vaccine is only effective for 7 years, so by the time the child is in a situation in which he could be at risk, the vaccine will no longer be effective. With children who have been born of an infected mother, the children already have the disease; and again, the vaccine is of no use. In order to help these children, completely safe testing could take place before the pregnant mother gives birth. There are options which can be provided to infected mothers in order to stop the transmission. For the third scenario, the use of unclean needles in America is remote, and it is unlikely that any of the children will shoot-up with illegal drugs from their local dealer before their seventh birthday.

On top of the lack of need for vaccinations, is the risk that comes along with them. Along with being mercury based, this vaccine is said to be one of the primary causes of neurological problems such as ADD and autism, which points toward its degenerative effects upon the brain. The really unlucky children can die as soon as the day after this vaccination. For most children, the risk of a serious vaccine reaction is around 100 times greater than the risk of contracting hepatitis B, and the risk may be worse for younger children.
The most serious reported adverse effects of the vaccine seem to be restricted to Caucasians. Despite this, the main long-term safety study was conducted with Alaskan natives to avoid statistical and scientific "complications" (ie. revealing disturbing facts which are bad for business), and the other studies typically involved Asians.
In 1996, 54 cases of the hepatitis B were reported to the CDC (Center for Disease Control) in the 0-1 age group. Considering that there were 3.9 million births that year, the likelihood of Hepatitis B in that age group was 0.001%. In the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), there were 1,080 total reports of adverse reactions from Hepatitis B vaccinations in the same year and age group. Forty-Seven deaths were officially attributed to the vaccine.
For every child with hepatitis B, there were 20 reported to have had severe vaccine complications. Bare in mind that only 10% of the reactions are believed to be reported to VAERS, so this means that conventional medicine is harming roughly 200 children for every child it is protecting from Hepatitis B. Even more damning is that these numbers assume the vaccine is always effective, which it is not.
Only 1.3% of those exposed to Hepatitis B will develop a serious complication. So, coupled with the low risk of infection, its small likelihood of causing serious harm, and the well-documented serious dangers of the vaccine: why are we vaccinating infants?
It's All About The Money.
The manufacturers of the Hepatitis B vaccine are paid $1 billion a year for this vaccine which harms so many children. With that money, they can sway a lot of opinions, and they do. A manufacturer of the vaccine was asked at a 1997 Illinois Board of Health hearing to cite his evidence that the vaccine is safe for a 1-day old infant. The representative replied:
"We have none. Our studies were done on 5- and 10-year-olds."
Please think before you allow your child to be vaccinated.
