The Fear Element

Many doctors of the 1940s were aware that the pitchmen of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (NFIP) and March Of Dimes were responsible for the expanded terror that swept the nation.

DDT poisoning description

Acute gastroenteritis occurs, with nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea usually associated with extreme tenesmus. Coryza, cough and persistent sore throat are common, often followed by a persistent or recurrent feeling of constriction or a "lump" in the throat; occasionally the sensation of constriction extends substernally and to the back and may be associated with severe pain in either arm. Pain in the joints, generalized muscle weakness, apprehension and exhausting fatigue are usual; the latter are often so severe in the acute stage as to be described by some patients as "paralysis.

Was arsenic benign?

Dr. Popow concluded that arsenic, even in a few hours after its ingestion, may cause acute central myelitis or acute poliomyelitis.

A very agitated father of seven children came to me with the appalling announcement that his ten-year old son and his four-year-old daughter had been taken with what he called the cow disease and neither of them could stand or walk. They went lame yesterday, just like the cattle have been doing for the past two or three weeks, he explained, and today they cant move. ~Sister Elizabeth Kenny And they shall walk,

Where are the contracted limbs?

Before she came If you could have visited the hospital, you would have seen little kids lying stiff and rigid, crying with pain, even though as she saw they were not necessarily paralyzed. Wed take the children to the operating room in those days, straighten them out under anesthetic, and put them in plaster casts. When they woke up, they screamed. The next day they still cried from the pain. That was the accepted and universal treatment virtually all over the world. I saw it in Boston and New York City and London. She said, Thats all wrong.

Immobilization and surgery = deformity

orthopedists believed in the "extreme fragility" of poliomyelitic muscle. Many victims of this disease were cast in plaster for 6 months or so, and their deformities were operated on in due course. Not even massagemuch less, vigorous exercise of the affected muscle was countenanced.~ Mead S.,A century of
the abuse of rest. 1962 Oct 27;182:344-5. PMID:13934298

Dr. Bernard Greenberg

Prior to 1954 physicians reported polio to subsidize the cost of hospitalization, and report communicable disease. The criterion of partial or complete paralysis of one or more muscle groups, detected on two examinations at least 24 hours apart was all that was required. Laboratory confirmation and presence of residual paralysis was not required

Greenberg contin.
1955 was the year Salks vaccine was licensed and marketed New diagnostic criteria: Two exams 60 days apart with paralysis The change in 1955 meant that we were reporting a new disease, namely, paralytic poliomyelitis with a longer-lasting paralysis[60days] Paralysis had actually increased 50% from 1957-8 and 80% from 1958-9. The new defs. helped hide that.

Redefining polio

Polio epidemic used to be 20/100K population, but moved up to 35/100K per year after the Salk vaccine release. Redefined length of paralysis from 24 hours to 60 days in order to be called paralytic polio as of 1955.(most paralysis of 24 hours resolves, the minority persists to 60 days) Any polio within 30 days of vaccination was not logged as vaccineinduced but as pre-existing. This ignored vaccine failures and vaccine-induced cases. July 1958, non-paralytic poliomyelitis with meningeal signs was renamed ASEPTIC MENINGITIS. This eliminated a large portion of non-paralytic polio.
Even if polio virus was present non-paralytic polio was no longer reported as its used to be, after 1958.

Defined polio by diagnostic testing that had not been required prevaccine.

In the states which have pulse polio rounds nearly every month, the non-polio[non-wild polio] AFP rate is 25 and 35-fold higher than the international norms The non-polio AFP rate correlates to the cumulative doses of vaccine received in the previous three years children who were identified with non-polio AFP were at more than twice the risk of dying than those with wild polio infection

Solution: More polio vaccines?

Response by WHO and GAVI is to ramp up the current oral polio vaccination campaigns in recent years Some children are reported to have received 32 vaccinations for polio by 5th birthday
At a vaccinators' meeting in Sultangunj Referral Hospital held Tuesday, supervisors reported a "new" resistance coming from the "educated middle class people" who were getting tired of several rounds of immunisation: one family claimed that their five year old child had received pulse polio vaccination 32 times.
~Times of India. Multiple doses of pulse polio vaccine irritate people. Aug 25 2002. 52

Cuba 1992-1994 epidemic

Thought to be polio. 50K people affected. Vitamin/nutrient deficiency: methionine, vitamin B-12, riboflavin, and niacin. Coxsackie virus and smoking also had a role. Guantanamo area was unaffected by the virus. Blood riboflavin status, carotenoid, and selenium concentrations were significantly higher in Guantanamo smokers. Intake of plantain banana, pepper (Capsicum spp.), bovine meat and milk products were higher. Implications for polio and all infectious disease are huge.
53

Summary
Polio of the late 1800s-1950s was not just a single viral illness, therefore a vaccine could not have eliminated it Immobilization treatment of polio resulted in the images we know and fear Poison cause of polio never investigated by government, though it surely contributed to epidemics of poliomyelitis. Reversed with vit C and chelation. Polio is still here, renamed after implementation of much more stringent diagnostic criteria

54

Did anyone have poliovirus paralysis?

Yes, I am NOT saying that poliomyelitis was NEVER viral in nature.
However, more than half of viruses isolated in epidemics were not polio viruses Many cases of poliovirus paralysis CAME FROM THE VACCINES THEMSELVES. If your grandmother had polio she could have gotten it from the polio vaccine OR from someone elses polio vaccine. This goes on even today.

There were added circumstances that led any virus to affect the CNS.
Some of those circumstances were injections including vaccines such as DPT, smallpox etc. Other susceptibility factors; tonsillectomy, refined sugar/flour, toxins eg.

Many cases of poliomyelitis were poisonous in nature and involved no virus at all.

The treatment of polio by orthopedists led to many of the physical deformities. 55

History of smallpox and polio that was never publicized, but is well supported by data Show you why smallpox and polio were not eradicated by vaccination. Over 50 graphs of worldwide disease and mortality data Documentation of natural treatments with far more success than vaccination Poor sanitation, child labor, disgusting living conditions were the norm when death rates were highest Unsafe infected vaccines were common
