Whooping cough wasn't as common as the other childhood diseases. I don't remember any of the other kids having it. The other kids didn't treat me like a leper, or give me any special treatment in our ball games and other running sports. A kid with whooping cough was "normal", even though it was not common.

[None of us had ever heard of "lepers", because nobody had leprosy, and we were too young to have read the Gospel story about Jesus healing the leper. Maybe that's why the kids didn't treat me like a "leper" for having whooping cough (which they had heard of); and we didn't treat kids with measles and chickenpox as lepers, feared and shunned for carrying the "dread disease". Our childhood diseases were not dreadful. They were normal.]

All of these childhood diseases were so normal that we paid no attention to them and just went on being kids. I never knew - or heard of - any kid getting seriously sick or dying from any of these diseases. We were all healthy. I never knew any sick kids, who were chronically unhealthy. [One of my cousins was born deaf, which was uncommon, but normal. Everybody knew that there was such a thing as "deafness", which means you can't hear. Nobody knew there was such a thing as "autism", which means...? But now autism is normal, too.]

Not like kids today, many of whom suffer from all kinds of chronic conditions and diseases that didn't exist when I was a kid. Nobody had asthma or food allergies or neurological-behavioral disorders like autism. Kids didn't die of an epidemic of these modern dread diseases. We never heard of any of those sicknesses, until decades later, when they became the new normal.

What changed, that made modern kids sick? Toxic environmental pollutants? A diet of glyphosate saturated heavily processed food-like substances? Getting injected with literally dozens of toxic vaccines to prevent normal childhood diseases like measles? A lethal combination of all three?

The modern epidemic of serious, life-threatening childhood sicknesses - medical conditions that were unheard of when I was a kid - is being caused by "something". Recognizing that something has changed dramatically for the worse - and investigating possible causes of the change - is not "conspiracy theory". It used to be called "medical science".

Today, medical scientists cannot investigate the correlation between the dramatic 1989 increase in the CDC's childhood vaccination schedule (beginning with newborns), and the dramatic increase in chronic childhood illnesses and deaths since 1989. "The science is settled." Vaccines are safe and effective medical treatments that prevent kids from getting measles. The vaccines can't be causing the disease epidemic because "vaccines are safe".

Anybody who says otherwise is an anti-vaxxer nutjob who doesn't believe in science.

Any medical researcher who says otherwise is summarily fired and blackballed out of the medical research industry.

Any "credible" researcher would produce evidence that vaccines are safe and effective.

The malcontents whose research finds the vaccines are definitely not safe and only marginally - if at all - effective, are clearly pursuing some perverse agenda and peddling fake news. Off with their heads! Or at least off with their jobs, and their research projects.

Recently, now that the Pandemic!!! assails us from every TV screen and newspaper headline, I am reading more research about infectious diseases like measles. Apparently, getting measles as a kid stimulates and develops our immune system to fight off the disease, and provides us with lifelong immunity against measles, and reduces our vulnerability to a number of much more-serious later-in-life conditions like heart disease and Alzheimer's.

It's actually good for us to get the normal childhood diseases. Maybe not pneumonia, especially if we can't beat it naturally and have to resort to antibiotics. But the evidence of long-term experience - statistically verified by decades of data - is that childhood diseases don't kill us or harm us. They make us stronger.

There is compelling evidence, on the other hand, that the vaccines that are supposed to prevent measles (and mumps and rubella), actively block kids' natural immune function and make them susceptible to serious bacterial and viral diseases; and cause a multitude of severe chronic side-effect conditions, and deaths; and actually increase the rate of vaccinated kids getting measles higher than the rate unvaccinated kids get measles.

Unsafe. Ineffective.

The vaccines contain high levels of known neurotoxins like aluminum (as an adjuvant) and mercury (as a preservative); and DNA from monkeys, chickens, and aborted human fetuses (the culture that the vaccines are grown in); in addition to containing the attenuated (weakened) or live biological material of the disease (measles) that the patient will be immunized against.
