Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History By Suzanne Humphries
Eye-opening
I have had my doubts about the truth of the history of vaccines and what it does to kids today. This book slowly, thoroughly and plainly revealed the true history of disease and vaccinations (and almost entirely avoided the autism question). The authors’ agenda appear to be nothing further than revealing the truth that has been hidden under decades of misinformation and propaganda. 530 Simply outstanding. 530 FANTASTIC book! The title is well chosen...I cannot believe how we've completely disregarded history in the case of vaccines (or rather, continued to tout incorrect assumptions about their history- case in point, smallpox!). This book is carefully cited and well put together. Great read! Best book that I've ever picked up on the topic of vaccines. 530 The topic of vaccination elicits strong reactions usually either definitely for or against. Humphries' book falls toward the negative and she provides gobs of graphs and statistics to validate her point of view -- which is that the incidence of disease was decreasing with increased sanitation and improved living conditions and there was no need for vaccines at all. They do more harm than good.
My own opinions run somewhere down the middle and my concerns have more to do with the unknowns of immunology than with the vaccines themselves. And money and power as motivating factors.
An interesting read, if a bit polemic. 530 A really thorough look at the ineffectiveness of vaccination through history from its early beginnings sloshing around diseased animal pus to... well... we're still sloshing around diseased animal pus. Will we look back at the era of vaccination as we now look at leeching or phrenology? It would be great to have doctors say we don't really know instead of repeating the confidences of a greedy pharmaceutical industry.

Not too long ago, lethal infections were feared in the Western world. Since that time, many countries have undergone a transformation from disease cesspools to much safer, healthier habitats. Starting in the mid-1800s, there was a steady drop in deaths from all infectious diseases, decreasing to relatively minor levels by the early 1900s. The history of that transformation involves famine, poverty, filth, lost cures, eugenicist doctrine, individual freedoms versus state might, protests and arrests over vaccine refusal, and much more. Today, we are told that medical interventions increased our lifespan and single-handedly prevented masses of deaths. But is this really true? Dissolving Illusions details facts and figures from long-overlooked medical journals, books, newspapers, and other sources. Using myth-shattering graphs, this book shows that vaccines, antibiotics, and other medical interventions are not responsible for the increase in lifespan and the decline in mortality from infectious diseases. If the medical profession could systematically misinterpret and ignore key historical information, the question must be asked, “What else is ignored and misinterpreted today?” Perhaps the best reason to know our history is so that the worst parts are never repeated. Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History
An eye-opening book that anyone interested in vaccines and the history of infectious diseases should read. Dissolving Illusions is meticulously researched and footnoted. Reading it is an undertaking--the book is 479 pages long--but it's worth it. Dr. Suzanne Humphries, M.D., and her co-author Roman Bystrianyk, present the other side of the story: the forgotten history the role of poor hygiene, crowding, malnutrition, and harmful medical practices have played in the spread of lethal disease. 530 Wow. If you still think the vaccines of the past and present are the cats meow after reading this heavily referenced 500 page tome, then... I dunno... I suppose you'd probably be a Trump supporter as well. Even if you didn't read any of the book and just studied the tables and graphs, they speak for themselves and would be more than enough to nail the vaccines as savior coffin. How many times must we learn that there are no magical pills, potions, lotions or injections that will ensure good health? It's so cliché, but still so true that health comes from giving the body what it needs in the right Goldilocks proportions (good clean food, water and air, exercise, sunlight, etc) and avoiding what hurts it (living in filth, being stressed to the max, poor posture, etc). Thank you Dr. Humphries for this gift and for challenging our sacred cows!!! 530 It's worth noting that there are significant conflicts of interest at the CDC. It was actually a British Medical Journal that investigated and exposed this.

Look I wear a mask and I've had my three shots, but this does not mean we should overlook the greed factor on the part of Big Pharma and the Gates Foundation.
Since shortly after establishing his foundation, Bill Gates has owned stakes in multiple drug companies. A recent investigation by The Nation revealed that the Gates Foundation currently holds corporate stocks and bonds in drug companies like Merck, GSK, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Novartis, and Sanofi. Gates also has heavy positions in Gilead, Biogen, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Moderna, Novavax, and Inovio.
Gates gets credit for being a philanthropist, but when the gov't buys these vaccines Bill Gates gets richer.

“There is no incentive to prevent things. If you look at what our two societies have in common, we’ve given ourselves over to markets in a way that’s pretty extreme. Which is to say, we strongly encourage things that pay and we give correspondingly less attention to things that don’t pay. Prevention does not pay. Disease pays. It pays when Covid is all over society and corporations get to make a lot of money testing for it. It doesn’t pay just to shut it down up front. And if there’s food for thought, it’s that we were essentially incentivised to have a bad pandemic response.”

It doesn't surprise me. Much of news media is struggling financially. For 30 years, I covered the Silicon Tech biz as a reporter and author. But as far as I can see, investigative journalism is almost dead. One study showed that reporters at name-brand publications got 43% of their story ideas from what's trending on Twitter.
530 This is a women who worked on the pro vaccine side until over a period of time she awoke and discovered the truth. This is an amazing book and at the end when she destroys Paul Offit and shows how much of a lying elitist pig he is, it's wonderful. Offit is the type of man that continues o spread fear and false vaccine propaganda and Dr. Humphries is the type to enlighten and banish fear. I am a new father and this is my third vaccine book and yes I have read one pro vaccine book just to be open minded. My little girl is now 4 months old and still vaccine free and still healthy and alive so I'm just going to keep arming myself with knowledge, because thats all we can do as parents guys.
1/1/17 Update: I Now have 2 girls. my oldest is 3 going on 4 and my youngest is 1 going on 2. My oldest has had one vaccine to date, MMR. My youngest has had none and my wife and I do not get any shots. My youngest daughter got pertussis one month after my first review when and was 5 months old, you can imagine I was questioning whether or not I had made the right decision; my faith and knowledge was put to the test. She had a mild form of the whoop and long story short we made it out with no problems. She does now have a natural immunity to the whoop which is good, it doesn't mean she's immune but if she ever did get it again it would be more mild then the first time. My oldest and I also got hand foot and mouth this year in 2016 and there is no vaccine for this and is rare in adults but guess what me and my girl pulled thru this too! Don't let MSM, academia, & Hollyweird scare you silly. Humanity has made it a long time without any assistance. I am not against vaccines, i just don't want anyone telling me when and why I have to give them to my child. I have read 4 books
A anti vaccine book, a pro vaccine book, a neutral vaccine book and this book about the history of disease and vaccines. I have read hundreds of articles and watched countless hours of documentaries and other media, I have done my home work for myself and my family and only ask that I be free to make my own choices.
Good luck on this journey called life, live it Free and wise.
7/25/21 Update: I now have 3 children, two girls and one boy, they are 8,6 and 4. We decided a few years back to try and stop this insanity of not vaccinating our kids so we could be normal like all of our friends/Family who don't worry about such things as what pediatrician will see our kids, what school will teach our kids, ya know normal things normal people don't loose sleep over. We decided to begin vaccinating our two girls slowly just to show the catholic school we were trying to get them caught up, just so they would accept them into the class of 2019. To make a long story short we got the girls two shots that had a total of 5 vaccines in them, a 2 in 1 and a 3 in 1. A few weeks later my middle child's only issue was she was born premature was perfectly healthy for the first 4 years of her life vaccine free, after those 5 vaccines (given in one day in only two jabs) she starts having some intense mood swings, and also begins to wet the bed, and by the end right before we went to see the pediatrician she was so thirsty it was ludicrous, so by the 8th week we decided it was definitely time to get her seen. We go to the pediatrician, she notices the very high blood sugar and sends us to CHOP here in Philadelphia, where we spend 3 nights and learn how to treat our newly diagnosed Type 1 diabetic 4 year old. *She was diagnosed 1/22/20 so we have now been dealing with this for some time.* Enter July 2021 - Here we are living with our decision to get her vaccinated and told by all the professionals that they are unsure why people get T1D, HA!!! You out there who are reading this have read what I have about this disease and its connection and know what I know it makes my stomach turn to think we got soft enough to give it a go. Ok, back on track with my story, so my wife and I need to be normal again in an abnormal world, we opted out of Catholic school last year for our girls because of C19 and enrolled them in Virtual, which was great and they learned way faster with me breathing down their neck rather than ....(sorry I just had to stop to take my daughters blood and inject her with insulin so she can have breakfast)... being at school with 30 kids per room. However even the Virtual school was harassing us about their immunization records that we provided with such little shots on it they wanted them to have them all, even though they sat behind a screen 100% of the school year. (I am their father btw and my wife and I have our own business, which made virtual school a possibility) Ahhh people we have so much to catch up on and such little time. Here's the deal we want to send them back to school so we can work and make some $$$ but no school will take them at this rate, especially now with C19 and everyone and their mothers now involved in debating Vax vs UnVax, we just want to be normal and make our own decisions but we are not allowed, freedom is an illusion it's comply or die. You either do what you're told or you will not be allowed to participate in this crap society they are making for us to bleat around in. We either sacrifice all of our kids at the alter of the collective good or hide in our house like troglodytes until we figure out what to do. Our Catholic school (My parents went to, me and my wife went to, our kids went to) sent home a letter from the office of the poop I mean pope and it stated that they are aware of the fact that some vaccines are made with fetal cells but since we are not the ones responsible for the death of those fetuses that its ok to take the vaccine, so shut up and take the shot and give us all your money if you want to come to our school. You are probably asking about my other daughter who got the same shot, she is fine, and my son is 4 and hasn't had a single shot and he is healthy as a horse. This is a warning people, going down this road and reading these books, having these discussions, making these choices for your kids offers nothing but pain, these societies around the planet don't like us thinking for ourselves, its too dangerous for them for us to think, so strap on your Nikes, log into your fantasy football league, make some comments on FB and stay there where its normal and safe, because this path that I am on is a frigging nightmare. My wife and I often say how amazing it would have been to remain ignorant (we mean it and we don't at the same time) but this path is a dead end that leads to a cliff, we are totally lost as to where to go so unless someone hovers over head in the Helicopter and drops down a ladder to rescue our family and show us the way we are totally F*@!ed. Even our state of PA wants proof of Vax if we go the route of legit homeschooling, so are we supposed to forgo indoctrination I mean education for our kids and hide in a cave for the rest of our lives ? Well, Ladies and Gentlemen that's where we are at if you were wondering and if anyone has a helicopter to get us off this cliff I am ready to leave Rod Serling's unwritten masterpiece episode that he could have only dreamed of. HELP!!!
P.S. I wonder if this addition to my review will be allowed to remain here or will it be erased for misleading information, (enter moaning ghost spooky sound effects, think Beetlejuice). Also I have no evidence that what I say is true but my gut tells me it is and even if I did have evidence who would care? exactly, no one. VARES is operated by the same people who work for the pharmaceutical companies, its a revolving door and no one is responsible for the jabs, no doctor can be sued nor can the companies that made the jabs, its one big joke and some are lucky and get no adverse reactions and others are not, but if the majority benefits who cares about the ones that don't, right ? Utilitarianism at all costs, full steam ahead! Dang it , I am thinking too much again! Good Luck people, you will need lots and lots of it. Maybe I'll be able to write you guys a review in the future while in the Gulag for my thought crimes and actions against the greater good.
11/24/22 Update: We moved! We're now out of the tyrannical city of brotherly murder and into a new county in Pennsylvania. Our Kids are now 9/7/5 and all are in school, we filled out an exemption form that the state allows and handed it into the school, and we have had no difficulties to date from the school about our decision. We also found a pediatrician that allows our kids to be patients at her practice, first time in 7 years we weren't kicked out of a doctors office. She was kind to all 3 of my kids and naturally asked me about my decision to which I kept the answer brief. She said it was no problem and if we ever changed our minds she was there for us, WOW, what a different feel compared to those clear liquid, no ingredients you can understand pushes back in the city of brotherly homicides. I also became friends with a farmer who's 3 kids are older than mine and 100% unvaccinated so I have someone to talk to for the first time about that who is on the same page, very rare to find this day and age. I'm not sure how long they will allow me to continue this comment / blog here but they've already deleted a book that I've read and commented on , now its just called no book and there's no picture and my comment was removed, don't ask me the book it's not the point, my point is this could very well become erased someday if I continue my anti science misinformation stuff here.......... Have a Happy Thanksgiving and may God continue to bless the USSA ;) 530 Highly recommended! Dr. Suzanne Humphries is a true doctor( a nephrologist) who actually speaks the truth regarding vaccines. In her practice, she started becoming aware of her patients developing kidney failure especially following the flu vaccine administration. She was shunned by her esteemed colleagues for even questioning vaccines in the medical establishment. She illustrates how many diseases were declining prior to the introduction of vaccines. The book highlights the awful living conditions, where impoverished people lived in over crowded cities, living in filth and throwing feces and urine in the streets, eating diseased meats and infested produce. The book also addresses children as young as three years old worked 10-12 hour days in mines and other places with no ventilation, inhaling coal dust and other noxious fumes and rarely saw the daylight back in the 1800's. It is no wonder why people were immune suppressed. Makes one wonder if vaccines eradicated any disease.
