Horrors of vaccination exposed and illustrated: $b Petition to the President to abolish compulsory vaccination in Army and Navy
Higgins, Chas. M. (Charles Michael)
Vaccination
I think I have already proved in the preceding pages, without any
doubt, the serious dangers of modern bovine vaccination to human health
and life, and that it now, in fact, often causes more deaths than
smallpox, particularly in infants and school children, and has also
been the cause of many dangerous epidemics among animals and mankind;
and that for these capital reasons all compulsory vaccination should
be absolutely abolished and prohibited, and voluntary vaccination only
allowed.
In order, therefore, to show the meager or limited protective power
of vaccination and its common, proved and admitted failure to protect
from epidemic disease, I will now give several typical examples of this
failure, both with the more common smallpox vaccination and the more
recent typhoid vaccination, so as to complete this indictment against
the medical malpractice of compulsory vaccination in all forms and
leave nothing further which need be said on this subject in these pages
to bring conviction to every reasonable mind that the barbarous medical
scheme of compulsory disease is a very dangerous and fallacious mode of
improving public health.
EXAMPLE FIRST. From Report of Registrar General of England for last
great epidemic year of 1902:
Population of England and Wales 33,000,000
Total Deaths from Smallpox 2464
Vaccinated Cases 821
Unvaccinated Cases 791
Condition Not Stated 852
---
2464
Surely there is no proof here that vaccination is much of a protection
from smallpox, but rather the very reverse, because it is here shown
that the majority of fatal cases are vaccinated.
EXAMPLE SECOND. During the last great smallpox epidemic in New York
City in 1901 and 1902, the City Department of Health issued a printed
circular to doctors, dated in 1902, which clearly acknowledged that
the majority of all cases in this epidemic occurred in persons who
had been successfully vaccinated a few years previously, and not
in unvaccinated persons! This statement was signed by Dr. Ernst J.
Lederle, Commissioner of Health, and Dr. Hermann M. Biggs, Chief
Medical Officer, and was in part as follows:
“Experience in the recent outbreaks in New York City, contrary
to the general opinion, has shown that the majority of the
cases occurring here are not in unvaccinated persons, but
in those who have been vaccinated successfully some years
previously.”
Dr. Lederle, who signed this statement, is now a manufacturer of
vaccines and serums in New York City, and Dr. Biggs is now the Health
Commissioner of the State of New York at Albany.
EXAMPLE THIRD. Health Officer Raymond of Brooklyn stated in the
_Brooklyn Eagle_ of June 5, 1902, that in the epidemic in Brooklyn in
1902, in the first half of that year, there were 357 cases of smallpox
and that 322 of these cases were all vaccinated and only 35 cases
unvaccinated!
