Vaccines: A Reappraisal Kindle Edition

This is an EXCELLENT book. I own a LOT of vaccine education books, and this book by Dr. Moskowitz is one of the best overview books I've yet to read. Dr. Moskowitz puts his FIFTY YEARS of clinical experience to task in this book as we see him clearly, concisely and eloquently gives us the exact reasons why natural immunity is superior to vaccination, and why the vaccination process ITSELF is so incredibly dangerous to our children. He also dives a bit into the FAILED HISTORY of vaccination - a history that the vaccine industry hides from us. I run a Facebook group called Stop Mandatory Vaccination (look it up!) with over 146,000 parents in it from all over the world, and one thing has become crystal clear: Parents who have vaccinated and vaccine free kiddos all say the same thing - their vaccine free kids are healthier, get sick less often, are able to overcome sickness faster than their vaccinated siblings, and excel in every part of life faster than their vaccinated counterparts.Here's what you need to know: Vaccination - THE PROCESS - exhausts immune capacity - and THAT leads to auto-immune conditions, and THAT leads to chronic sickness, ear infections, asthma, seizures, autism, and even death. Yet, pediatricians call that "normal," "coincidence" or 'SIDS." DO NOT BUY INTO THEIR LIES!Our children NEVER needed vaccines. Not ever. We have been sold a lie. So, if your GUT is telling you NOT to vaccinate but you just need some reasons why - and an understanding that makes sense - READ THIS BOOK. Seriously - like I said, I own a LOT of books on this topic - THIS book by Dr. Moskowitz is THE book to get.And with that, there are two more resources to buy: Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe The Unvaccinated Child: A Treatment Guide for Parents and Caregivers Finally, search for my Facebook group Stop Mandatory Vaccination and join it - parents would love to answer your questions!

This book is profoundly disturbing, as it should be, since having an informed conversation about a topic that so fundamentally challenges our beliefs is hard. The idea that we can and should prevent illness, and that we have a way to do this (by vaccination programs) is so fundamental to modern medicine. But if vaccines don’t even do what they’re supposed to do we are really confounded and faced with a very disorienting dilemma. We thought we knew! We thought we had the answer!I am reminded of the story of a guy named Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis, a Hungarian physician, who introduced the notion of hand-washing in obstetric clinics, in Germany in the 1840’s. He proved that doing so diminished the rates of maternal death by puerperal infection significantly (maternal death was high in hospitals then when physicians went from dissecting cadavers to delivering babies without washing their hands in between). This was before germ theory was understood, but he had proof that the rates of infection and mortality were significantly reduced if doctors simply washed their hands with chlorinated lime solutions before attending births. Despite various publications of his results, where hand washing reduced mortality to below 1%, Semmelweis's observations conflicted with the established scientific and medical opinions of the time and his ideas were rejected by the medical community. When a paradigm is shifting and we don’t have all the new understanding we need, AND when powerful interests are involved (whether these be pride, smug arrogance, or big money), making changes is difficult. Ironically, we do know a little more about germ theory these days, but it turns out vaccinating people may not be the best way to prevent disease. Au contraire, it seems to be contributing to a new epidemic of chronic and debilitating auto-immune diseases.Vaccines, A Reappraisal was written by a rigorous physician who has stood up to “business as usual” many times in his career, when he’s seen something dangerous, wrong, or immoral, as well as when the “science of the day” is not matching up to actual results. The evidence he presents in this book more than raises concerns about the safety and efficacy of vaccinating people. His suggestions for “moving forward” given current policy are reasonable and thoughtful. One such recommendation (recently implemented in Sweden) is that “all routine vaccinations for children and adults alike be made optional.” His years of careful observation, concern, research, intelligence, compassion and pragmatism are obvious in this book, which I hope will be read and studied by every family physician, pediatrician and parent as they sort out the difficult decisions surrounding one of our society’s most treasured beliefs in modern medicine. In spite of very large and overwhelming issues, he seems dauntless in upholding his place to inform and inspire us to healthy “seeing” in this quagmire of difficult information. He gives us the science by which vaccines are held to a certain standard of truth. He gives us a glimpse into the complexity of human health, even intimating that we might be more than “science.” He clearly has respect for people, their experiences and choices, and he strives to help them live into their own fullness. The penultimate sentence of his book moves me and gives us a sense of the light from which the book is written. Dr. Moskowitz honors “giving full attention to the actual lived experience of [his] patients; recognizing the elements of health and well-being that lie hidden in or [are] inaccessible to them; and offering the relevant science and most suitable medicine to assist and enhance their own innate self-healing capacity.” In short, he cares from a scientific and a moral base that hold human health care to a much higher standard, which makes the vaccine issue worth our very serious contemplation.

Larry D Cook 22 July 2018 has already written just about everything I want to say so I please consider that review seconded by me! I only wish the irresponsible and utterly ignorant (well, its either that or "dishonest") editors and journalists at the Daily Mail would read this and the many other books/papers written by many good doctors and scientists and at least make an attempt to do their research properly before starting their dangerous health and life threatening campaign to increase vaccination rates - ref 7 entire pages including front page devoted to this in yesterday's edition of the Daily Mail.

This is a very good book to get a balanced view on the issues of vaccination. It's thoroughly researched and is backed up with peer-reviewed research and also anecdotal cases and experiences. Certainly some shocking things in here. This really should be required reading for those who refuse to accept there is need for this issue to be examined further and who unquestioningly accept a particular view on this issue.

Concise, informative and thorough.

Well worth a read. Step away from the media the truth is out there .

Hugely informative book. Scary amount of information you would never, ever be told about by your local GP.
