New Failed Vax Study Proves Vaccine Antibody Theory Is False

November 3, 2012 by admin in Featured, Science, Vaccines with 13 Comments

Vaccination theory is false, never proven but not questioned. A failed new vaccine against MRSA, V710, demonstrates this fact clearly. Increasing antibody titers, the standard measure of a vaccine’s efficacy, is not the same as natural immunity.

A study has clearly documented that the basic theory behind vaccinations—that immunity is provided by the development of antibodies—is wrong. Sadly, it was dead wrong, as people died for the presumption.

The vaccine, V710, is for a disease that was caused by modern medicine: MRSA, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, also referred to as the flesh-eating bacteria disease. So, they tried to create a vaccine to fix a problem that the system itself created.

The V710 vaccine was expected to become a blockbuster, as it was intended for use before surgeries and on people entering hospitals to prevent MRSA. What a system: Create a disease and then try to find a treatment for the disease you’ve created and reap giant profits from it!

The study’s failure, though, reveals something highly significant about the entire vaccine industry. It’s based on a theory that clearly does not stand up to inspection. If the development of antibodies were the key to “strengthening the immune system”, as is routinely declared by doctors and health agencies, then V710′s failure would not have been possible.

By all accounts, the vaccine resulted in a “robust immunologic response”, which means that lots of antibodies were created. But when given to people in advance of cardiothoracic surgery, more infections happened, and more people died of multiple organ failure.

The Study

The study was funded by Merck. The lead researcher, Dr. Fowler, was the chair of Merck’s V710 Adivsory Committee. He also has received grants and research support from Merck, Cerexa, Pfizer, Novartis, Advanced Liquid Logics, and MedImmune, plus has been a paid consultant to Astellas, Cubist, Cerexa, Merck, Pfizer, NovaDigm, Novartis, The Medicines Company, Biosynexus, MedImmune, Galderman, and Inimex, and has received honoraria from Astellas, Cubist, Merck, Pfizer, Theravance, and Novartis.

We probably shouldn’t be too surprised that Fowler has no idea why the results were so dismal in light of the good antibody responses, saying, according to Medscape:

I can’t think of a biologically plausible reason for it.

The study included 3,958 patients who were given the active V710 vaccine and 3,967 who received a saline placebo. 201 people (5.08%) given the vaccine died, compared to 177 (4.46%) who received the placebo. That was 13.9% more deaths in people who were vaccinated.

NOTE: The results were translated into person-years, a construct that strikes me as meaningless in this context. The issue is how many people undergoing a single instance of specific types of surgery succumbed, not how it looks in terms of person-years.

Of the vaccinated patients, 22 got MRSA and 7 of those died. Of the unvaccinated control group, 27 got MRSA and 2 of them died.

Vance Fowler Jr., MD, MPH, study leader and professor of medicine at Duke University, stated:

V710 was not efficacious in preventing S. aureus bacteremia and/or deep sternal wound infection, despite eliciting a robust antibody response. Overall mortality rates were not significantly different for vaccine and placebo recipients.

13.9% more people who got the V710 vaccine died. That was 24 more deaths. Considering the size of the market that was being addressed, had the vaccine made it to market, that would have rapidly translated into thousands of extra deaths directly caused by the vaccine. Overall mortality rates weren’t significant?

Reported here are the MRSA rates only, but Medscape also reports that those who got the V710 vaccine and developed S. aureus were 5 times more likely to die than those in the placebo group.

Implications on Vaccine Theory

What we need to take home from all of this is that the basic theory behind vaccinations isn’t based on reality. It’s based on assumptions. It assumes that triggering the immune system unnaturally to create antibodies is equivalent to developing them from a natural disease process. The fact is that it’s not. It’s a method of circumventing nature, not duplicating it.

Titers Are Not Immunity

The reality is that no consideration has been given to what happens to the immune system as a whole after vaccination. The only thing of interest has been getting the titers up as high as possible, that is, making the concentration of antibodies as high as they can. That’s used as the definition of a vaccine’s success. It’s used in spite of the fact that titers resulting from vaccines are often far higher than titers that result from natural infections. Yet, natural immunity is usually 100% and lifelong, while vaccine-induced immunity is virtually never anywhere close to 100%, nor does it last more than a few years.

There’s obviously a lot more involved in disease immunity than how high the titers can be driven. But you’d never know that. The only thing that’s considered is whether an arbitrary titer is reached, not the overall effect of a vaccine.

Antibodies Are Just Part of the Immune System

In the rush to vaccinate, no one considers the effects on the body as a whole, or even on the rest of the immune system. Resistance to disease is far more than antibodies.

The immune system is divided into two parts: humoral and cell-mediated. The humoral immune system is the one that vaccines address. It produces antibodies to infectious agents. When overactivated, it can also create antibodies to the self, resulting in autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus. As is clearly shown by the V710 fiasco, vaccines are not able to duplicate what the body does naturally in fighting an infectious agent—and no one knows exactly what’s wrong or has the slightest idea of how to duplicate nature.

The cell-mediated part of the immune system is managed by T-lymphocytes, the T-cells that HIV patients focus on. The T-cells mediate, that is, they manage and control macrophages, natural killer (NK) cells, and antigen-specific cytotoxic lymphocytes and cytokines in response to antigens. The cell-mediated portion of the immune system is the part that you cannot do without. This is the standing part that’s ready to respond to virtually any sort of infectious attack or cancer. Yet, vaccine makers pay little attention to it when addressing infectious diseases.

In once respect, it’s probably a good thing that cell-mediated immunity is ignored. At least, there’s little attempt to manipulate it, although—Alas! it’s becoming the focus of some of the newer vaccines that aim at targets other than infectious diseases. However, no consideration is given to whether vaccinations may be harming it, just as virtually all harms done by vaccines are handled by pretending they don’t exist.

The fact is that measuring titers is clearly not an adequate way to determine immune system health or strength. The claim that vaccines “strengthen the immune system” is just that—a claim. It has no basis in fact. There is no reason to believe, and every reason to disbelieve, that forcing the increase of titers is equivalent to immunity from disease. It’s equally clear that the injection of toxic materials along with antigens is a dangerous practice. We surely don’t need to prove that! Nonetheless, the vaccine industry and its minions are injecting heavy metals, deadly chemicals, and substances like squalene that are virtually guaranteed to cause system toxicity and autoimmune disorders.

Perhaps one good thing can come of the failed V710 MRSA vaccine. Perhaps sane heads will pop up and say:

Stop!
Stop this madness.
Let’s look at what we’re doing.
Let’s ask why more than half our children are systemically sick and will never enjoy good health.
Surely a bit of temporary easing of risk against infectious disease is not worth the results that we can see all around us!
Surely we can stop this madness.

    Thank you for this well formulated, most informative article.

    Dr. Palevsky’s (also those of many other competent, unbiased experts) statements are in line with the article.
    Quote:
    “The gold standard of vaccine efficacy is whether or not the vaccine being used
    promotes an antibody response in the body. If the vaccine produces an antibody
    during testing, it is believed to have efficacy.

    Once the vaccine is given in the community, however, where there is a
    greater cross-section of diversity in the pediatric population, there is no way to know what percentage of children produce an antibody or not. People automatically assume if children receive their vaccines, antibodies are automatically produced, efficacy is therefore achieved, and the children are therefore protected from disease. This is where the story gets murky.

    There is pretty good evidence in the literature, pediatric textbooks, and vaccine package inserts, that the presence of an antibody after vaccination does not automatically confer immunity. Therefore, there may be no such thing as vaccine efficacy even if the antibody is produced from vaccination.

    According to Nelson’s Textbook of Pediatrics, page 1015, “the absence of measurable antibody may not mean that the individual is unprotected. In contrast, the presence of antibodies alone is not sufficient to ensure clinical protection after administering some vaccines and toxoids.” In the case presented, the child can still be protected even if he doesn’t have antibodies, regardless of his vaccination status.

    Most people only understand that protection comes from the presence of antibodies, and that lack of protection comes from not having antibodies. This is too bad, because the way in which the immune system protects the body from infectious disease is much more complicated than whether or not the body has an antibody. Even if the boy were to have antibodies, the presence of these antibodies does not ensure clinical protection, anyway.

    Despite the inconsistencies between what the literature, textbooks and package inserts state and what we say is scientific fact, we still hold true to the gold standard that vaccine efficacy, and therefore, immunity to disease, comes from the presence of an antibody through vaccination or exposure to disease.

    To the question then, what’s the point of vaccinating if there are no antibodies, my answer is, exactly. Better yet, even if there are no antibodies, a person can still be protected, so again, what’s the point of vaccinating?

    Time to rethink the science. Lastly, whether or not vaccines induce an antibody in the body, and whether or not the antibody confers immunity, something is happening in the body to change the way in which these infectious diseases are expressing themselves. That’s an explanation for another day”.

    Wow… I usually ignore these type of articles but seriously. You are very critical about the fact that MRSA was created by modern medicine as if it was created on purpose. Guess what, this is a battle against enemies that a very good adapting. This is basically a “First world problem”. You are complaining about having the option to escape infection and almost certain death 97% of the time by taking a simple pill. Do you know how many people in underdeveloped countries would love to have access to penicillin? I think you forgot the days when getting pricked on the finger by something as simple as a rose would kill you. What about the days when complicated surgeries were almost impossible to do due to infection. Modern medicine discovered ways to shift the tide of the war with bacteria and viruses. Now the bacteria are catching up. Everything has a side-effect and a good doctor weighs the cost and benefits before treating any disease. Next time before you complain go to a 3rd world country for a week and see how many people die from something as simple a cut finger that a Tetanus vaccine would have prevented.

      Exactly! The bacteria and viruses are catching up – and that’s the point. We’ve been living in a feel-good era that’s tried to distance itself from reality, but reality is coming back to bite, and bite hard. These diseases aren’t just catching up – they’re overtaking, and they’re worse than the ones they’re replacing.

      No one has suggested that antibiotics are necessarily bad – but the reality is that they’re nowhere near the panacea that you’d have us believe. Modern medicine most assuredly has misused them – and that’s why we have MRSA, which is much worse than the infection from which it descends.

      You seem to think that there was no awareness of such a potential – but you’re wrong. It was realized within the first weeks after penicillin’s development that drug resistant organisms would develop. There is, therefore, no excuse for the mass use of these drugs without need.

      MRSA is a worldwide problem, not just one of the first world, as you choose to term it. The rest of the world gets to suffer from it, too.

      There is no balance in modern medicine. That’s why we have diseases like MRSA and C. difficile, among others. It’s the arrogance of modern medicine and its cohorts in crime, Big Pharma and Agribusiness, that are at issue. They are guilty of creating more harm than good – and we’re just beginning to see how bad it is. Massive numbers of children are now sick, stuck with chronic disorders, because of this system that’s run amok. Modern medicine has no respect for the body’s inherent intelligence and balance. Rather than use its methods judiciously, they’re applied to everything, with devastating results.

    You’re implying that “modern medicine” (seemingly a collective body of conspirators) intentionally set out to “create” MRSA for the purposes of profiting from the treatment of it. This is blatant sensationalism and a fairly ridiculous thing to say.

    “Implications on Vaccine Theory” – I think you’ll find you meant to say “Implications for vaccine theory”.

    “A study has clearly documented that the basic theory behind
    vaccinations—that immunity is provided by the development of
    antibodies—is wrong.”

    No. The study did not show this. The study reports that in this cohort of patients, this _particular_ vaccine did not decrease mortality in those with S.aureus infections post-operatively. It also did not increase overall mortality in those patients. There was greater mortality from MODS in those with S.aureus infections who received the vaccine.

    What this shows is that this vaccine is not effective for its intended purpose. Extrapolating that one finding to suggest that the validity of all vaccines is therefore flawed is sloppy thinking, and not supported by the evidence presented in this paper.

    • / Heidi Stevenson

      You chose to take that interpretation. It was not implied. But the fact remains that, for whatever reason (most likely not bothering to take concern about the known fact that such would happen, as noted in the early days of penicillin), modern medicine most assuredly IS the reason for MRSA and others, including the new more virulent whooping cough.

      The study DID show that. The study showed that great titers does NOT equate with immunity. It matters not that the authors of the study drew a conclusion that didn’t include this point.

      You also misrepresent my statement. I said that vaccine theory is flawed. I did NOT say that vaccines never work. But this study clearly shows that the theory behind vaccines, creating antibodies to some arbitrary titer level, is wrong. If it were true, then V710 would have worked – but it didn’t. It takes only one instance to demonstrate that a theory is wrong. That a study doesn’t point it out does not change the fact that the study shows that the theory is wrong.

    Why and what of did the people die from that received the placebo?

    • / Heidi Stevenson

      The specifics are not being given, as there’s no paper written about this and probably won’t be. However, these people were all ones who’d undergone very invasive and serious surgeries.

      Significantly, though, more of those who had the vaccine and got MRSA died of it than unvaccinated who got MRSA.

      • Anna Fox

        yes, thats the problem, I need details, testing on Monkeys and so on, we are all different.
        This medical system is just not working…. I stick with HOMEOPATHY ;)

        • / Heidi Stevenson

          Pushing a new product forward is what’s valued, not finding what’s best. We’re expected to accept this approach to medicine without question. Close our eyes to what isn’t working. Ignore the individual for some non-existent average.

          • Anna Fox

            Heidi, I am supporting you….however I don’t really understand your reply. Are you a doctor a scientist or have you been part of those studies? Facts are very important as they speak the truth. If there was a study, there should be evidence on paper.

          • / Heidi Stevenson

            Studies are published only if whoever financed them want them published. The fact is that Merck financed this study. Studies with negative results are never published by Big Pharma corporations.

            In this particular instance, the information we have is a result of a report given to a conference. Therefore, we have selected results, but nothing more. I would imagine that the reality is probably even worse than reported.

            My reply referred to the fact that we are NOT provided with all the information and data. It’s routine. There can be 10 negative studies, but once there’s a good result, it can be presented for approval as if the negative results never happened.

            Exactly! We have many studies done by independent researchers showing that yes immunizations can cause autism. The only ones we hear about are studies funded by vaccine companies, some performed by vaccine patent holders such as Paul Offit (which is significant because they are using the Ashe adjucants as his vaccines) which show no correlation. Those are the ones that are publicized not ones done by independent researchers! Autism is significant! Autistic children and adults die more often than those without autism.
