1. A pesticide common in the 1800’s was called Paris Green. A green liquid because it was a combination of copper and arsenic or lead and arsenic. Some of the most toxic substances known to humankind. This super toxin was also used as a dye, in many items, including wall paper and paint. It was the sole focus of murder mystery novels at the time, as arsenic was known to be a very efficient way to stage a murder “for unknown reasons”, as arsenic kills but is hard to detect after the victim succumbs to the poison (now we’ve had to add this link because the first link has been scrubbed – Scheele’s Green – Wikipedia. – An Everyday Poison | Science History Institute Science History Stories Magazine Every Day Poison Arsenic

2. This pesticide worked by causing neurological damage in the bugs, causing organ failure.

3. Polio consists of symptoms synonymous with neurological damage, causing organ failure.

4. Heavy metal poisoning from lead, mercury and other similar heavy metals manifest lesions on neurological tissues, meaning the toxin destroys the nerve/communication pathways connecting the brain to the organs in the body. http://bit.ly/1OLcFgG (Mercury Poisoning – The Minamata Story)

5. Polio victims present lesions on neurological tissue, that cause the organs to malfunction all around the body. (lungs, heart, nerves that control walking etc)

6. Polio outbreaks hit throughout the summer, only during pesticide spraying times. (not the sunless and damp winter/spring seasons regarding other disease outbreaks)

7. Polio had and has NO ability to spread from infected victims to the uninfected. Polio infected clusters of people in the exact same areas, suddenly and swiftly. http://bit.ly/1P6zShV (the original link was https://reducetheburden.org/polio-a-shot-in-the-dark/ and now that is not working so I’ve linked the book where the exert was originally from – https://odysee.com/@OfficialVaxFactsLack:a/A-Shot-In-The-Dark—Barbara-Loe-Fisher—Harris-L.-Coulter-(1991)–Book-:6 and you can buy the book here – https://www.amazon.com/Shot-Dark-H-Coulter/dp/089529463X )

8. Parents reported finding their children paralyzed in and around apple orchards. One of the most heavily pesticide sprayed crops of the time (with lead arsenate or copper arsenate) were apple orchards. Paris green – Wikipedia Both lead and arsenate can cause paralysis but that paralysis is tied to visible poisons, not invisible viruses. Imagine a plot to continually poison the public for control based purposes and to have the public focus on invisible viruses and not the visible poisons? How far would such a plot get? Is such a plot still occurring to this very day, using the same strategies and blue prints?

9. President Roosevelt became paralyzed over night while at a summer retreat, which contained many crops, including apple orchards.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paralytic_illness_of_Franklin_D._Roosevelt He also swam the day prior in a bay that was heavily polluted by industrial agricultural run off. Summer again is when these paralysis based outbreaks would occur, as spraying of crops with extremely toxic chemicals would intensify as the crops hit a fully mature state. The pesticides we’re talking about were DESIGNED to terminate nervous system function in the bugs, which is exactly what “polio presents as. Is polio connected to a very long history of complicit poisoning of the population by industry, government, science and medicine. Anyone who doesn’t understand the perpetual historical record of the ruling 1% poisoning and exterminating the “lesser halves” needs to investigate the documented science of eugenics, which can be started by clicking here to watch a very well made video on the subject.(video linked is titled Sir Francis Galton – Father of Eugenics)

10. Dr. Ralph Scobey and Dr. Mortind Biskind testified in front of the U.S Congress in 1951 that the paralysis around the country known as polio was being caused by industrial poisons and that a virus theory was purposely fabricated by the chemical industry and the government to deflect litigation away from both parties. http://bit.ly/1DKDb3v – link here is https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/environmental-toxins/pesticides-and-polio-a-critique-of-scientific-literature/#gsc.tab=0 Do we really need to spray poisons on the food we eat or is there something else going on……and is it still going on today?

11. At this added link (click here) http://www.whale.to/a/scobey2.html titled The Poison Cause of Poliomyelitis and Obstructions To Its Investigation. we have the actual testimony of Dr. Ralph Scobey to Congress, explaining how the government, chemical companies and the media were trying to steer the public astray as to the causes and the treatment of the paralysis falsely blamed on a virus that didn’t cause paralysis. The chemical companies were poisoning the American people and some people from academia were making accusations that this was being done purposely to increase the power of a corrupt government, over the resulting dysfunctional and toxic masses. Create a problem, declare that something must be done, rally the government to start giving money to this organization or that to solve the problem (owned by friends in government) and then declare the problem has been fixed……..but what if the problem was purposely manufactured and the solving of the problem also manufactured? Do we have any evidence of the problem being created and also solved in manipulative ways?

12. In 1956 the AMA (The American Medical Association) instructed each licensed medical doctor that they could no longer classify polio as polio, or their license to practice would be terminated. Any paralysis was now to be diagnosed as AFP (acute flaccid paralysis) MS, MD, Bell’s Palsy, cerebral palsy, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease), Guillian-Barre (GBS), meningitis, provocation poliomyelitis, transverse myelitis, viral or “aseptic” meningitis, Chinese Paralytic syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, etc Included under the umbrella term “Acute Flaccid Paralysis” are Poliomyelitis, Transverse Myelitis, GBS, enteroviral encephalopathy, traumatic neuritis and Reye’s syndrome. http://bit.ly/1Ml3rpX (source here is a google book search of the book Immunization – The Reality Behind the Myth – page 36 with a search for the sentence ” In order to qualify for classification as paralytic poliomyelitis, the patient had to exhibit paralytic symptoms for at least 60 days) This was orchestrated purposely to make the public believe polio was eradicated by the polio vaccine campaign but because the polio vaccine contained toxic ingredients directly linked to paralysis, polio cases (not identified as polio) were skyrocketing…but only in vaccinated areas. http://bit.ly/1WEHYzR (this link ishttps://vactruth.com/2015/07/05/cdc-made-polio-disappear/ titled – The CDC Made These Two Radical Changes and 30,000 Diagnosis of Polio Disappeared Instantly Disappeared) Today most vaccine inserts declare paralysis as a potential side effect (https://www.immunize.org/fda/ ) but “reframe it” as Guillian Barre or simply “paralysis”. This is purposely designed to obfuscate the public’s understanding of what causes paralysis, which is heavy metal poisoning plus vaccine induced autoimmunity……that ends with the body attacking and destroying its’ own nervous system pathways, in an rabid attempt to clean itself of the injected toxins. Guillian Barre and paralysis, as listed vaccine side effects, are also a way to get the public running east looking for a sunset, keeping them as far away as possible from connecting the dots around this medical polio obfuscation. Aluminum and mercury are ingredients in most (if not all) vaccines today and both are proven to cause paralysis and motor neuron destruction………..known as many different names, depending on just how much the science/medical authority figure in the room wants to lead you astray that day. Polio Planned To Be Used To Coverup Vaccine Caused Guillain-Barré Syndrome (odysee.com) Here we see how mercury can cause paralysis (Japan’s Ominous Dancing Cats and the Disaster That Followed) and cause nerve damage. Here and here we see that aluminum can also cause paralysis and obviously death as well.. (Effects of Aluminum in Vaccines and Doctor Speaks Out Dangers of Aluminum in Vaccine) There’s an entire documentary about the trace amounts of neurotoxins in vaccines called Trace Amounts and how these toxins (just like lead and arsenic of the polio era) completely devastated the body with many polio like symptoms.

13. The first polio vaccine was worked on by Dr. Jonas Salk and human experiments using this vaccine were conducted purposely on orphans in government/church run institutions because they were vulnerable and didn’t require any parental consent signatures, as they had no parents. The vaccine was “declared safe” by “medicine” (as they always are even though that vaccine was killing and paralyzing monkeys in test trials) and that vaccine gave 40,000 orphans polio, permanently paralyzed hundreds and killed at least 10 children. All injuries and deaths under reported of course by the same authorities who orchestrated the atrocity. This was called The Cutter Incident (The Cutter Incident – Vaccines Do Harm). A focused attack on defenseless children, by people charged with their care. A poisoning of innocent children and then the excuses and apologies, regarding how it won’t happen again. Is this pattern still occurring today? The answer is obvious. In this attached link regarding the Cutter Incident where vulnerable children were purposely targeted, the killing of the children is advertised as “a great help to science” in better understanding the disease. Today we also have kids dying from a vaccine and the similarities don’t stop there. The Vaccine is Killing Kids (odysee.com) Salk was praised as a hero for not patenting the polio vaccine that carried his name but legally if you patent something, you’re also legally liable when it hurts someone. Salk wasn’t a hero. Is targeting the population with poison and then declaring the poison a disease an on going cycle in our modern world, which also ends with a toxic vaccine that only produces more disease? Such cycles of attacking the public over and over again is often referred to as “disaster capitalism“. Disaster capitalism drives profit for the attacking group into the stratosphere and also increases political control of the group receiving the perpetual shock doctrine.

14. The next “improved” polio vaccine, given to hundreds of millions, carried both the SV 40 cancer virus as well as the AIDS virus…..or so it was said to carry cancer causing and AIDS causing viruses………but it didn’t. What that vaccine carried was more poison, more heavy metals and more toxins……proven to kill and cripple. Every step of the way, we had medicine declaring that they knew for sure, that this time, they had everything straightened out and that The Cutter Incident would not repeat itself. Same story then, same story now. The only thing larger than the pile of broken medical and government promises regarding polio, vaccines and disease eradication…..is the pile of broken and dead bodies that rockets skywards as medicine, science and government continually apply failed healing protocols to a heavily indoctrinated and bewildered public. Vaccines are Cancer. (odysee.com) Cancerous tumors, still being pulled out of people today, are riddled with SV40 cancer viruses from the government’s “safe and effective” and “approved” polio vaccine. http://bit.ly/1jGvysV Although all three links in this point refer to “viruses” being in the new polio vaccine and causing all the deaths and injuries associated with the second generation polio vaccine, it’s important to understand that all these deaths, injuries and cancers are caused by poison. In short, the people who are poisoning you want you to believe that invisible viruses are making you sick and killing you, instead of their very visible poisons. More on that point at the bottom of the article.

15. In the book Virus Mania, top scientists in the field declare that polio doesn’t and has never qualified as a viral disease because it fails to spread from person to person or animal to animal. If it’s not a viral disease, then what is it? The answer is heavy metal and other forms of toxic poisoning that causes partial or full paralysis. (destruction of the nervous system). Connect the dots. Learn more about virus mania here.

16. The polio con job, ranked as 1 of the top 10 medical con jobs of all time, is clearly described in this selected chapter of the book “Dissolving Illusions” by leading medical doctor, Dr. Suzanne Humphries. The reason so much effort is placed into medical con jobs like this is to continually infuse the public with false fear regarding viruses that don’t exist, and also to provide false hope and blind faith belief in toxic vaccines and poisonous medications, which only worsen a population’s overall health status. Why would anyone do this? Again, this is when a confused citizen needs to investigate EUGENICS and the history (and families) behind that movement. The end result is the same, regardless of medical ambush. The elite groups who organize such fraud based operations increase tyrannical control over a diseased, die-empowered, depressed, dis-satisfied, dis-oriented and dumbed down population. Such a population is easier to control, steal from, manipulate and govern. It’s not really about polio or viruses, it’s about poisoning the population into a chemical lobotomized state that ends with increased elite domination and iron fist control. How did 80% of North Americans come to become extremely unhealthy in our most technologically advanced era? The answer is……because this has always been the design of the system. The ruling of 8 billion people by an extremely small group of 10,000 can only be achieved when that 8 billion operate in perpetual chaos…….physically, economically, mentally and spiritually. http://bit.ly/2jeQpUa Bill Gates also moves today throughout the world pushing vaccines and paralyzing innocent victims, in a very similar trail of carnage, death and destruction. Same story in the 1950’s, same story now…..the vaccines are causing paralysis in their uninformed victims. Bill Gates (here and here) has been attacking the population with vaccines (on behalf of certain groups) for at least 25 years. What you see today with COVID and the COVID vaccines falls is a cycle similar to what we observe with polio and the polio vaccines.

17. On a related note, Jonas Salk, the inventor of the first polio vaccine……..eventually wrote a book. It contains his personal views on the general public and how the society is meant to advance, under the new scientific dictatorship. Some very interesting beliefs of Jonas Salk are exposed throughout the book. Click here to see the video (Jay Dyer – Survival of the Wisest Book Review – Father of Vaccines Jonas Salk – by Jay Dyer) and you best be sitting down when you do. Salk openly endorses the medical system and associated power groups kill at will to achieve this groups very dark goals. A perfect actor to develop the polio vaccine, which is simply another needle full of poison, which can easily manipulate the public to line up for……suing the right mind control and propaganda techniques.

18. Did the Polio Vaccine Really Eradicate Polio (odysee.com) even more data showing that sickness, mimicking polio symptoms ,are experienced more frequently by people with an unhealthy diet. People receiving the polio vaccine (and other vaccines) were much more likely to be ill in general and present polio like symptoms. Disease isn’t a poison deficiency. Disease is caused by a surplus of poisons and the documented toxins in all vaccines PACK A WALLOP!

19. At this added link an acclaimed author of 9 books exposes the true intent of all vaccines, including the polio vaccination. The truth is never complex, only the lies are.

20. CLICK HERE to see a story that exposes this on going cycle. The vaccines don’t do what they say they do. Those shots or oral applications only increase sickness, which is relabeled as the disease being fought, which in turn is propagandized to increase mass poisoning of the public. The truth is that toxins can paralyze the body and the polio vaccine in question (oral as well as injectable) is straight poison and has always been so.

When someone talks of any disease, in this day and age, they’re often just repeating what they were told by the government, media, science or medicine. If you’re willing to repeat without any confirming research or resistance, this pre qualifies you to rocket up the pyramid of control, gaining promotion after promotion along the way. When someone today repeats anything about polio and polio elimination based on vaccination, they’re repeating known the lies of known liars……..who are experts in disaster capitalism, shock doctrine, murder and psychological manipuation. Repeating what you’re told and intelligence aren’t the same thing. Repeating or intelligence? The choice is yours. Repeaters are FIRM IN THEIR BELIEFS yet have NEVER researched beyond what they were told to believe. Such firm belief, with ZERO RESEARCH, is illogical and irrational. Research the hidden history of polio, the disease that never was. http://bit.ly/1DKDb3v

Click here to see over 100 medical doctors and PhD scientists explaining with statistics and research that 1) vaccines aren’t safe 2) vaccines aren’t effective 3) vaccines don’t improve immunity or resistance to disease and 4) vaccines injure, permanently cripple or kill each and every person they’re injected into. The darkness and deceit around the polio vaccine doesn’t just stop there. The entire history of vaccination, from inception to this very day, is rampant with corruption, eugenics, stealth euthanasia and for lack of a better phrase……evil intent.

This portion has been added from Kate William………….

My ears practically perked up when I read that one Dr. HC Emerson, investigating a ‘polio’ outbreak in 1907, discovered that a) no polio cases in exclusively breastfed infants b) the eating of fresh fruits and vegetables preceded the onset of ‘poliomyelitis’ in many others.

Barber (1939) reported four cases of ‘polio’ that occurred the same day as strawberries were eaten, in a boarding school house.

Chenault (1941) noted the parallels between ‘polio’ outbreaks and the appearance of fresh fruit and vegetables.

Draper (1935) reported a case series of ‘polio’ which he theorized originated from a Greek fruiterer.

Naturally, I had to do some digging on this…and discovered…

Before DDT spraying, there was ARSENIC spraying!

In 1929, almost 30 million pounds of lead arsenate or calcium arsenate were sprayed in the fields and orchards of America. In fact, the government was so enthusiastic about the use of arsenic, that in 1935, an FDA-hosted radio program suggested the old nursery rhyme “A is for Apple” should be changed to: “A is for arsenate, Lead if you please, protector of apples against arch-enemies.”

In 1919, Boston Health Department was forced to destroy arsenic-coated apples because people were getting sick.

Scientists say the earth is still tainted with the residue, and believe lands once used to raise cotton, is now responsible for arsenic found in rice. Arsenate pesticides were officially banned in the US, in the 1980’s, but “modifed arsenates” are still used on cotton crops today. China, meanwhile, kept using arsenate sprays beyond 2000, and it is suspected they are still using them illegally.

Note the symptoms of acute arsenic poisoning = fever, vomiting and nausea, headache, sore throat etc. Chronic poisoning = polyneuritis and paralysis, especially in the extremities.

Sound familiar?

Also note that Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was crippled by ‘polio’ in 1921, at age 39 years, also owned an apple orchard where the family used to spend their summers, and he used to swim regularly in the pond nearby…At the time, mostly children were affected, and it was considered rare for adults to have ‘polio’.

POLIO is a man-made disease caused by heavy metals exposure, not a virus… the entire history of polio and vaccines was fabricated – https://www.newstarget.com/2021-11-28-polio-man-made-heavy-metals-not-virus.html

Same con all the time – developed by science, safe and effective, the disease caused by the government and media in the first place and then more sick and dead kids are the result.

ULTRASOUND: A century of forgotten research shows clear damage to fetal tissues

February 1, 2025 Pam Vernon Leave a comment

Analysis by A Midwestern Doctor
Via Dr Mercola

Story at-a-glance

The medical field has historically exposed mothers to harmful treatments for infants. After efforts to stop routine fetal X-rays, prenatal ultrasound (US) was introduced as a “safe” alternative
While ultrasound is considered safe, a century of forgotten research shows it can harm tissues
Evidence shows early fetuses are especially vulnerable to ultrasound, with trials in China that gave ultrasound before abortions revealing clear damage to fetal tissues
US harms are dose-dependent. In 1992, despite safety concerns, the FDA raised permissible US levels 8-fold, which may have contributed to the rise of chronic childhood illnesses
The benefits of prenatal US are often exaggerated, leading to unnecessary treatments that harm both mothers and infants

The earlier in life an input enters a human being’s system, the more of a profound impact it has. For example, abuse, neglect, or trauma early in childhood often pattern individuals for their entire lives (and in many cases their descendants as well).¹

Similarly, it’s well recognized that toxin exposure during pregnancy (especially in the first two months of life²) can create lifelong issues. Sadly, this principle is frequently neglected when convenient (e.g., by pushing the COVID-19 vaccine on pregnant mothers).

‘Safe and Effective’

One of the core beliefs medical students are taught from the very start is that vaccines are “safe and effective.” As such, they become unable to see the obvious dangers of vaccines (e.g., the century of evidence linking vaccines to “unexplained” sudden infant deaths — which coincidentally occur at the same time the early childhood vaccines are given).

A similar situation with ultrasound exists, as all doctors are taught that, unlike other imaging modalities, ultrasound is completely harmless. Rather, ultrasound’s only downside is that the image quality is operator dependent — even though many medical devices use high-powered ultrasound to destroy human tissues.

In truth, like vaccines, initially the medical profession was quite skeptical of ultrasound (as there was a great deal of evidence suggesting harm). However, as the decades passed and its ever increasing use was normalized, those concerns were forgotten entirely. For example, in 1983, CNN aired a program on the dangers of ultrasound (where the FDA acknowledged these dangers) almost no one knows about.

In 1993 CNN warned against pregnancy ultrasound and had the FDA admit it was aware of its dangers. Remarkably, the FDA raised the maximum allowable ultrasound dose by 8 times (despite data showing the old dose was too high) and all those dangers were forgotten.

The Medicalization of Childbirth

Initially, doctors had no interest in childbirth. However, this changed in 1820 after a prestigious Harvard Doctor pointed out it could create lifelong customers due to the mother’s gratitude towards their doctor for helping her at her most vulnerable time.³

In turn, a variety of ploys were used to turn what had been a natural process into a medical intervention requiring a costly array of (often harmful) medical interventions.

Note: Despite those interventions making America by far the most expensive place to give birth to a child⁴ (besides Japan), 0.56% of American infants do not survive childbirth⁵ (the highest death rate amongst the affluent nations⁶) and the US ranks 65th in its maternal death rate.⁷ This indicates America’s approach to birth may be misguided.

After the idea of X-raying a fetus throughout pregnancy was proposed in 1923, it was quickly taken up by the medical profession.⁸ Before long, evidence accumulated that this was very dangerous, but it was not until 1975 that the obstetric field shifted away from it — a shift that largely occurred because an alternative way was found to conduct those routine exams.

Fortunately, at the time, many doctors, including one of the leading reformers of the era, Robert S. Mendelsohn, were aware of the dozens of studies showing ultrasound was not safe and recognized the same mistake was being repeated:

Fetal X-Rays began in 1923, but despite decades of evidence it severely harmed babies, it was not until 1975 that the medical field shifted away from it—largely due to ultrasound replacing it. Here, renowned Robert Mendelsohn MD explains how the x-ray mistake was being repeated. pic.twitter.com/iLcTOhZbGJ

‘Safe’ Levels of Ultrasound

Almost all of the ultrasound research showed its toxicity was dose-dependent. By the late 1970s, leading ultrasound researchers were explicitly warning against giving US to fetuses and that it was imperative to be very cautious of the dose.

Note: Much of this was based on the recognition that ultrasound could heat tissues (especially those close to dense bones like the brain) to levels known to be harmful to fetuses. This heating (along with the cavitation bubbles and mechanical stress ultrasound causes) is thought to be the primary mechanism of harm, although other explanations have also been proposed (e.g., ultrasound permanently muting many of the core frequencies of the body⁹).

Unfortunately, as the technology evolved, higher doses were needed to get the higher quality images customers wanted, so in 1992, the FDA made the controversial decision to raise the permitted ultrasound limits massively.

fda maximum allowed machine intensity per year

This limit (720 mW/cm²), however this vastly exceeded the standard accepted ultrasound dose¹⁰ which had already been demonstrated to damage tissues (and sadly, due to poor FDA oversight, many machines often use far higher intensities).

At the time, the change was justified by better training in ultrasound operators being a viable way to prevent fetal damage, but unfortunately, this never happened. Rather, ultrasound became declared “safe and effective,” the existing research was forgotten, funding for future safety research was blocked, medical guidelines gradually eliminated their cautions on ultrasound, and ultrasound operators lost almost any awareness they needed to be concerned about fetal safety.

Most importantly, this 1992 change coincided with the explosion of chronic illnesses that emerged in our children.¹¹

While the proliferation of vaccines is the most likely explanation for this epidemic, one study found¹² ultrasound increased the risk of autism in genetically susceptible children, suggesting ultrasound may have served a contributing role (which may relate¹³ to its ability to potentiate the cytotoxicity of antibiotics and other pharmaceutical drugs).

Likewise, many others found¹⁴ prenatal ultrasound significantly reduced fetal growth, impaired neuronal migration, and in children, increased:

Dyslexia	Delayed speech	Left-handedness
Schizophrenia	Poor academic and physical education performance	Passivity and tiredness

Note: We also periodically come across cases of parents who used home ultrasound throughout their pregnancy to observe their developing child (e.g., Tom Cruise attracted national controversy for this¹⁵) and noticed that their babies tended to be smaller and more sickly.

Fetal Reactivity

One of the first things that made me suspicious of ultrasound was noticing that once ultrasound was applied, fetuses would react to it, and often seem as though they were trying to get away from it as the probe was directed towards them — which suggested, contrary to what we were told, ultrasound was not inert. After some digging, I discovered:

Most midwives (and a few physicians) I’d spoken to had made similar observations and also hence questioned its safety.
Scientific research showed that ultrasound caused increased fetal movement.¹⁶
A hydrophone inside the uterus¹⁷ determined that ultrasound registers at 100 to 120¹⁸ decibels there (which is equivalent to a subway entering a train station¹⁹) — whereas OSHA limits workplace ultrasound exposure to between 105 to 115 decibels.²⁰

Fetal Demise

Another pivotal moment came when I saw a despondent mother in the emergency room having a miscarriage who kept saying, “I don’t understand what happened. We saw our gynecologist earlier today, she looked at my baby, and said he was in great health.” As I looked into this, I began to find many similar reports like this one (which includes many other instances she came across):

I first suspected fetal ultrasounds were dangerous after I saw a woman in tears at the ER who was having a miscarriage even though “the ultrasound this afternoon said I had a healthy baby.” Many more (eg. readers on my Substack and this mother) have experience that same tragedy. pic.twitter.com/5vkfLZ2vxM

Likewise, numerous large studies have shown ultrasound can cause miscarriages or premature labor,^21,22,23,24 and since I began this series, many readers have shared similar tragic experiences.

Evidence of Harm

Over the last century, hundreds of studies have demonstrated the dangers of ultrasound, over 200 of which I summarized here. Collectively they all show dose-dependent biological damage occurs (at levels that were frequently less than 1% of the FDA’s 720 mW/cm² limit). In cell studies, ultrasound has been repeatedly observed to:

Cause genetic damage similar to that induced by X-rays	Make susceptible cells become cancerous
Damage cellular structures (e.g., microtubules, mitochondria, the nucleus, and the endoplasmic reticulum)	Create damaging free radicals
Create abnormal cell motility	Initiate cell death

In animal studies, ultrasound has been shown to:

Cause the same damage observed in those cellular studies	Significantly impair mice and monkey behaviors (e.g., learning, memory, activity, and sociability)
Impair cardiac function	Inhibit embryonic growth or kill developing embryos
Damage nerves and create motor paralysis	Decrease white blood cell counts
Cause hemorrhages in the lungs and bones	Create a wide range of congenital malformations (e.g., in the heart, head, and spine)

Note: Many of these defects, particularly those of the heart increased in tandem with the widespread adoption of ultrasound.

For ethical reasons, similar studies cannot be conducted in humans. However, in the early 1980s, dozens of studies (e.g., I summarized 41 of them here) were conducted in China on pregnant women immediately prior to abortion, with half of them receiving abortions and the fetuses then being dissected (some of which can be found in PubMed). Collectively, they observed similar damage in each organ that was examined and that ultrasound caused:

The cell death process to initiate — something many Chinese investigators found extremely concerning given that small changes in the initial embryonic cells can be immensely consequential for the rest of life

An increase of the proteins associated with cell death

Mutagenic changes and cancerous transformations

DNA damage

Increased levels of malondialdehyde (a highly reactive molecule), TNF-α, and lipid peroxidation (a sign of oxidative damage)

Decreased activity of many antioxidant enzymes and nitric oxide

Cellular damage (e.g., swelling, degeneration, disintegration, disorganization, karyolysis, and necrosis)

Damage to many cellular structures (e.g., pyknosis, rarefaction, vacuolization, disintegration), particularly within the mitochondria

Depleted glycogen levels

Additionally, they found specific damage to the placenta, pituitary gland, eyes, immune system, kidneys, liver, ovaries, testicles (and sperm), and the brain’s neurons and glial cells.

Note: Ultrasound has been extensively explored as a male birth control method²⁵ and has been found to induce premature ovulation.²⁶ Additionally, a large 2012 study found that 1.25% of children who had an ultrasound as a fetus had urologic disorders (e.g., a urinary obstruction), whereas in those who did not get a prenatal ultrasound, only 0.66% did.²⁷

A few large randomized control trials (RCTs) published in premier medical journals have also demonstrated dangers with ultrasound:

• A 1990 RCT²⁸ gave 4691 women ultrasound. They experienced 20 miscarriages and 11 elective abortions (due to diagnosed birth defects), whereas zero of either occurred in the control group. Additionally, it was determined that of the 250 placenta previas diagnosed by ultrasound (a key reason for prenatal ultrasounds), only 4 were present at birth.

Note: Placenta previa typically resolves later in the pregnancy.

• A 1990 RCT compared 57 patients being surveilled for preterm labor who received weekly pelvic exams or cervical ultrasound. Premature labor occurred in 52% of those receiving US, and 25% of those receiving pelvic exams. Those receiving US were more likely to receive tocolytic (labor inducing) agents (55% vs. 21%) and did not see any benefits from ultrasound.²⁹

• A 1992 RCT published gave regular Doppler examinations (a stronger form of ultrasound) to 1,246 women.³⁰ Compared to controls, the perinatal death rate increased 2.4 times, the total pregnancy loss by 1.67 times, the emergency C-section rate by 17%, and the need for resuscitations at birth by 6% (along with a significant decrease in Apgar scores).

• A 1993 RCT gave 1,415 women regular Doppler examinations. Compared to those who only received standard ultrasound, they were 35% more likely to have an intrauterine growth restriction and 65% more likely to have a low birth weight.³¹

Sadly, rather than changing the standard of care, each of these were ignored.

Is Ultrasound Effective?

Numerous studies show ultrasound provides minimal overall benefit, especially if used early in pregnancy when the fetus is most vulnerable to its damaging effect. For example:

• A 2010 Cochrane review (the gold standard for evaluating medical evidence) of 11 trials comprising 37,505 women found early pregnancy ultrasound provided minimal benefit (there were no reductions in adverse outcomes for babies or in health service use by mothers and babies).³²

• A 2005 RCT of 4,187 pregnant women found that umbilical Doppler monitoring led to a significant increase in the number of ultrasonographic and Doppler examinations but had no effects on the outcome of the pregnancy.³³

• A 1993 meta-analysis found no improvement in birth outcomes or perinatal mortality from ultrasound, but noted it incorrectly diagnosed fetal malformations.³⁴

• A 1993 RCT³⁵ of 15,151 low-risk pregnancies found that routine ultrasound provided no benefit.

Note: Another use of ultrasound is to monitor a fetus’s heart rate continually through the labor process. Unfortunately, there is no evidence this practice improves neonatal outcomes. Rather it just increases the rate of C-sections (e.g., in 1970 when it began, 5.5% of deliveries were C-sections,³⁶ while in 2023, 32.3% of them were³⁷).

This lack of efficacy is largely because the primary “benefit” of ultrasound is that it can inform the parents if the baby has a severe defect and hence should be aborted. This is problematic as:

• Many parents would not agree to prenatal ultrasounds if they knew it would force them to make that choice.

• Ultrasounds frequently have ambiguous results which then require extensive evaluations throughout the pregnancy (or invasive tests like amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling which carry many severe risks including birth defects, a 0.5% to 1% chance of causing miscarriages,³⁸ and decreasing the likelihood of a successful pregnancy by 4.6%³⁹).

Most frequently, that ambiguity creates significant anxiety, depression, and hostility for the mother⁴⁰ (which is not good for the infant).

• Parents who abort “defective” children are wracked with guilt over the choice for years, whereas they quickly find peace with miscarriages (a common outcome for non-viable pregnancies) and stillbirths.

• Studies have shown a significant number of “defects” were erroneous diagnoses, and many well-publicized stories exist of completely healthy babies being born whose parents had been repeatedly pressured to abort them (likewise this happened to a few friends of mine).

Many of the other benefits of ultrasound are either unnecessary (e.g., getting a picture of their face), possible to determine with other methods (e.g., their age, if there are twins, or if they have a genetic defect), or possible to determine around the time of labor (e.g., if a C-section is necessary).

Rather, the primary benefit is to inform you if the baby has a high-risk condition that requires intrauterine surgery (which applies to roughly 1 in 2000 pregnancies)⁴¹ or requires specialized surgical care immediately following childbirth (which can typically be determined with a physical examination).

Note: A 1997 study of 36 children with congenital defects only detected 19% to 36% of them. In those whose defects were detected (and the management of their labor was thus altered), 77% survived, whereas for those whose defects were missed, 96% survived (and had better Apgar scores and birth weights and spent less time on the ventilator). Additionally, while it took 3 times as long for those who needed surgeries to get one, no difference in mortality resulted.⁴²

As such, I believe rather than being routine, prenatal ultrasounds should only be done when there is a specific medical necessity for them (e.g., in high-risk pregnancies where the results of the scan would change its management following unexplained bleeding or to clarify uncertainties during labor), and that when done, care should be taken to minimize fetal ultrasound exposure.

Conclusion

For medical specialties to be financially viable, they need to routinely perform profitable procedures on the patients they see (which are often referred to as the specialty’s “bread and butter” and are funded as a result of aggressive lobbying by the American Medical Association).⁴³

Unfortunately, many of these procedures provide minimal value to the patients and, in many cases, are actually harmful (e.g., pediatricians depend upon vaccine sales to keep their practices afloat). Sadder still, in many cases, the doctors don’t even understand the evidence for or against the practice (e.g., I’ve found this is the case for pediatricians who routinely perform circumcisions).

In my eyes, one of the greatest upsides to the tragedy of COVID-19 is that it’s made it possible to expose the abhorrent tactics the medical industry has used for decades to exploit us for profit. As such, the public is beginning to question many of the longstanding medical practices they’ve reflexively trusted, and similarly, leaders like RFK Jr. have begun proposing removing the AMA’s ability to set the exorbitant reimbursement rates for medical procedures.⁴⁴

As children are both the most vulnerable to medical injury and cannot speak out for themselves when these injuries occur (although as any judicious observer can tell you — they do try to tell us), it is my sincere hope the new era we are walking into will at last allow us to protect them from these predatory medical practices. Our children are our future and it is vital that we protect them.

Author’s note: This is an abridged version of a longer article that goes into much greater detail on the data mention here, safe alternatives to ultrasound, effective strategies we’ve found for preventing miscarriages and having a happy, healthy and alert child, and methods to prevent common complications of pregnancy (e.g., back pain, preeclampsia, edema).

Interestingly, their son was much healthier than his vaccinated peers throughout childhood. At the time, Scott worked as a sales rep for Merck & Co., a large vaccine manufacturer, and he had dived deep into researching vaccines and the risk associated with vaccination. His Pediatrician was befuddled that Scott would not vaccinate, especially because he worked for a large vaccine manufacturer! His son continues to be healthy, and Scott and his wife have no regrets about not vaccinating their son.

American Medical Association sliding toward support of physician-assisted suicide… here come the death panels

June 19, 2018 Pam Vernon 1 Comment

(Natural News) Will the American Medical Association soon be in favor of physician-assisted suicide? In early June, the AMA decided not to reaffirm its position against assisted suicide – a decision which has shocked many. But indeed, the AMA has gone against its own Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs, which recommended the AMA maintain its opposition of euthanasia for humans.

Advocates for assisted suicide have been very successful at opening doors for euthanasia in medicine. In some states, affiliate groups have already taken a more neutral stance on this issue, paving the way for legislators to approve the legalization of doctor-assisted suicide. While proponents of euthanasia say that their cause gives patients the right to a dignified death, the issue isn’t really that cut and dry. There are substantial concerns about the potential for abuse and coercion. Inevitably, this could give rise to an untold number of citizens quietly being put to death against their will – while no one will be the wiser.

Experts warn against assisted suicide

Matt Vallière, the Executive Director of Patients Rights Action Fund, told Life News that he, and other advocates for patients’ rights, are very concerned about the AMA’s sudden change of heart.

“The American Medical Association’s decision to not confirm their own Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs’ recommendation – namely that they maintain their opposition to assisted suicide – does not take into account that this bad public policy puts vulnerable patients at high risk for coercion, mistakes and even abuse. Although the AMA’s opposition position still stands for now, a referral back to CEJA is a lost opportunity and a failure to stand against a policy that has grave consequences for everyone, but especially persons living with illness, disabilities, or socio-economic disadvantage. Assisted suicide is not medical care,” Vallière stated.

1 in 3 FDA-approved Drugs May Lead to Death | AMA Journal

May 20, 2017 Pam Vernon 4 Comments

From myeclinik.com

A scathing post-market study on FDA-approved drugs conducted by some members of the American Medical Association has made it to the headlines. It concludes that almost “one-third of new drugs approved by U.S. regulators over a decade ended up years later with warnings about unexpected — sometimes life-threatening — side effects or complications.”

LATimes reports,

Researchers looked at potential problems that cropped up during the routine monitoring that’s done once a medicine has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration and is on the market. The results, published Tuesday, covered all 222 prescription drugs approved by the FDA from 2001 through 2010.

The 71 drugs that were flagged included top sellers for treating depression, arthritis, infections and blood clots. Safety issues included risks for serious skin reactions, liver damage, cancer and even death.

“The large percentage of problems was a surprise,” and they included side effects not seen during the review process, said senior author Dr. Joseph Ross, an associate professor of medicine and public health at Yale University.

While most safety concerns were not serious enough to prompt recalls, the findings raise questions about how thoroughly drugs are tested before approval, said drug safety expert Thomas Moore.

But Ross said the results suggest that the FDA “is kind of doing a great job” at scrutinizing drugs after approval.

New drugs are generally tested first in hundreds or even thousands of people for safety and effectiveness.

Surely, not one of those guinea pigs are their close relatives.

Among the drugs that were found to be life-threatening are Bextra, Raptiva, Zelnorm, and others:

… The study counted black-box warnings for dozens of drugs. These warnings involved serious problems including risk of death or life-threatening conditions linked with the drugs.

There were also alerts for less serious potential harms related to dozens of drugs. Among them: Humira, used for arthritis and some other illnesses; Abilify, used for depression and other mental illness; and Pradaxa, a blood thinner.

Three drugs were withdrawn because of the potential for death or other serious harm. They were Bextra, an anti-inflammatory medicine, because of incidence of heart problems; Raptiva, a psoriasis drug, which is linked to a rare nervous system illness; and Zelnorm, a bowel illness drug, which has been connected to heart problems.

“Murder by Injection” – the incredible heist of the medical profession: the true history of cancer cures, vaccines & the pharmaceutical industry

April 19, 2016 Pam Vernon Leave a comment

A free ebook download by Eustace Mullins
Here is a book written by a man who passed on in 2010 in his 80s. He had the benefit of an overview of last century’s developments in real time. He saw much behind the official stories we hear on media and from our education systems. For those who are awake to these realities, this is a refreshing reminder that back before internet was here, there were still those who were equally as awake as ourselves. Note also Wikipedia calls him a conspiracy theorist, a convenient word coined to divert serious questioners from the truth. Although the author deals with many issues in his other works, in this particular one he exposes the corruption of our health treatment systems, away from natural cures and towards pharmaceuticals, tracing it right back to its origins. A must read if you really want to know the truth. There are many lectures of his also on Youtube if you search there.

Murder By Injection: The Story of the Medical Conspiracy Against America

Eustace.mullins.screen.capture — **Eustace Mullins [Wikipedia]**

From the Foreword: The present work, the result of some forty years of investigative research, is a logical progression from my previous books: the expose of the international control of monetary issue and banking practices in the united States; a later work revealing the secret network of organizations through which these alien forces wield political power–the secret committees, foundations, and political parties through which their hidden plans are implemented; and now; to the most vital issue of all, the manner in which these depredations affect the daily lives and health of American citizens. Despite the great power of the hidden rulers, I found that only one group has the power to issue life or death sentences to any American – our nation’s physicians.

I discovered that these physicians, despite their great power, were themselves subjected to very strict controls over every aspect of their professional lives. These controls, surprisingly enough, were not wielded by any state or federal agency, although almost every other aspect of American life is now under the absolute control of the bureaucracy. They physicians have their own autocracy, a private trade association, the American Medical Association. This group, which is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, had gradually built up its power until it assumed total control over medical schools and the accreditation of physicians….

Following is an interview of Eustace Mullins on the same topic, Death by Injection

TruthViews on Youtube
Eustace Mullins (1923-2010), discusses one of his best-selling books; ‘Murder by Injection’ exposing the unholy dynasty of the big drug companies, the medical establishment, the Rockefeller syndicate and the evils of the cut-slash-and-burn cancer racket that has killed millions in the name of ‘fighting cancer.’

While there are many books on the corruption of modern medicine, there is no other book out there that so effectively tells the whole story as does this seminal volume, laying bare the criminal machinations of those who profit in the name of “promoting good health.” The federal bureaucracy that ostensibly “regulates” the big drug companies is all part and parcel of the problem.

Breast Is Best

April 4, 2016 Pam Vernon Leave a comment

Since reading the information recently fed to us by the pediatrics journal persuading mothers that breast feeding is not natural, it seems pertinent now, especially as a member of the older generation, to affirm parents that breast feeding is indeed natural. And please don’t stop. A thorough read of the original article makes it very clear that the concern by the powers that be are related to the refusal of vaccines and genetically modified food. Among other things. If you’ve researched these two items you’ll also know that neither are they natural.

” …thanks to the Flexner Report and the destructive efforts of the AMA, all homeopathic colleges were wiped out by 1950 and most U.S. citizens know little about its healing potential…” NaturalNews

A quick glance at our little known histories tell us that the medical profession was heisted in the early part of last century following the Flexner report – heisted for profit. A time when the natural treatments were shut down in favour of unnatural chemicals to ‘cure’ our bodies – instead of the natural strengthening and maintenance of our own immune systems, something that begins at the breast.

“Simply put, oil tycoon J.D. Rockefeller was determined to control the pharmaceutical industry and ‘modern’ medicine – but, first, he had to get rid of the competition such as, naturopathy, homeopathy, herbalists or any other physician associated with holistic medicine. To do this: Rockefeller funded Andrew Flexner to create the “Flexner Report” – by 1910.

In this bogus report, Flexner visited all the medical schools in the United States and determined that we had ‘too many’ physicians and medical schools. Ultimately, in a classic strategy of “problem, reaction, solution” – Rockefeller (through his media connections) generated enough public outcry to motivate Congress to declare the AMA – the only group authorized to grant medical school licenses in the U.S.”
Natural News

This latest attack on mother nature’s super food is an insidious attack on our right to healthy bodies. Coming from so-called experts on our kids. Many medical professionals who have stood against this flood of insanity have lost their careers and their lives even.

The public reaction to this flawed information has been, rightfully, outrage. This is to be expected because the new info is simply neither normal nor right, and it opposes our very maternal instincts. Long may this continue.

So here we have Dr Mercola explaining, for those who are not aware, why mother’s milk is best.

EnvirowatchRangitikei

By Dr. Mercola

Breastfeeding rates continue to rise in the US. In 2011, the most recent year for which data is available, 79 percent of newborn infants started breastfeeding.¹This is wonderful news, as breastfeeding offers life-long health benefits, not just for the child, but for the mother as well.

baby-105063_1280 — Many have been misled by infant-formula maketing

Many women do not have access to the truth about breastfeeding and have been misled by infant-formula marketing to believe they must spend thousands of dollars a year to provide the best nutrition for their babies.

In reality (and barring any extreme exceptions such as certain transmittable diseases or drug use), breast milk is the best food for babies, period.

As reported by the World Health Organization (WHO), breastfeeding is the “normal way” of providing infants with the nutrients they need to grow and develop. They continue:

“Virtually all mothers can breastfeed, provided they have accurate information, and the support of their family, the health care system and society at large. Colostrum, the yellowish, sticky breast milk produced at the end of pregnancy, is recommended by WHO as the perfect food for the newborn, and feeding should be initiated within the first hour after birth.

Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended up to 6 months of age, with continued breastfeeding along with appropriate complementary foods up to two years of age or beyond.”

Breastfed Babies Grow into More Successful Adults

Proper nutrition in infancy has lasting effects on health and well-being. A study of nearly 6,000 babies followed from birth until they turned 30 years old found that those who were breastfed had increased intelligence, longer schooling, and higher earning as adults.²

Why does Western medicine hate homeopathy?

December 15, 2015 Pam Vernon 1 Comment

With the high rate of disappearance/death by suspicious circumstances/murder/suicide of Holistic Medical Practitioners these days, it’s pertinent surely to be asking questions? And it’s not hard to find answers … a brief research of the history of medicine reveals some very telling information. As always, follow the money trail. People now are becoming more proactive about their health and seeking out Doctors who will encourage the facilitation of prevention of disease rather than the endless treatment of the symptoms with chemical/synthetic pills. Our bodies were equipped at birth with immune systems which were designed to prevent disease and to heal the body. Previous posts here clearly indicate that at least one in three, higher in some places, are dying of cancer. Were modern medicine so effective then why is the ever elusive cure taking so long to find? In fact, the cures are already there, and suppressed. Folks are waking up to this crime of the century. Read here this article by NaturalNews on the reasons the medical fraternity are not happy with this. EnvirowatchRangitikei
