Incao.Dear Jagannath :Thanks for forwarding the following very informative and authoritativeemail on Vaccination. But our corrupt authorities will

not listen to reason.I met Dr. Ramadoss at the XVI International AIDS Conference inToronto, talked to him re : Vaccination Council and gave him my book on AIDS and Alternative Medicine. From Canada, I arrived here in Holland yesterday. In Canada I conductedseveral seminars and workshops and was interviewed by the print andelectronic media. From here I will go to Belgium, Germany, Italy and France and return to India on 10th Sept. 9after exactly one month)Keep up the good work.Best as everDr. Leo RebelloDirector, Natural Health CentreBombaywww.healthwisdom.orgOriginal Message:-----------------Jagannath Chatterjee jagchat01Date: Fri, 01 Sep 2006 02:52:59 -0700 (PDT)presidentofindia, apjabdulkalam,lokmail, advanilk, supremecourt,anbalagans, dhanavel,

INCAO, M.D. May 5, 1999In order to use vaccinations wisely, we need to understand exactly how theywork. Until recently, the ìmechanism of actionî of vaccinations was alwaysunderstood to be simply that they cause an increase in antibody levels(titers) against a specific disease antigen (bacterium or virus), thuspreventing ìinfectionî with that bacterial or viral antigen. In recentyears science has learned that the human immune system is much morecomplicated than we thought. It is composed of two functional branches orcompartments that may work together

in a mutually cooperative way or in amutually antagonistic way depending on the health of the individual.One branch is the humoral immune system (or Th2 function), which primarilyproduces antibodies in the blood circulation as a sensing or recognizingfunction of the immune system to the presence of foreign antigens in thebody. The other branch is the cellular or cell-mediated immune system (orTh1 function), which primarily destroys, digests and expels foreignantigens out of the body through the activity of its cells found in thethymus, tonsils, adenoids, spleen, lymph nodes and lymph system throughoutthe body. This process of destroying, digesting and discharging foreignantigens from the body is known as ìthe acute inflammatory responseî and isoften accompanied by the classic signs of inflammation: fever, pain,malaise and discharge of mucus, pus, skin rash or diarrhea.These two functional branches of the immune

system may be compared to thetwo functions in eating: tasting and recognizing the food on the one hand,and digesting the food and eliminating the food waste on the other hand. Inthe same way, the humoral or Th2 branch of the immune system ìtastesî andrecognizes and even remembers foreign antigens and the cellular or Th1branch of the immune system digests and eliminates the foreign antigensfrom the body. But just as too much repeated tasting of food will ruin theappetite, so also too much repeated stimulation of the ìtastingî humoralimmune system by an antigen will inhibit and suppress the digesting andeliminating function of the cellular immune system. In other words, overstimulating antibody production can suppress the acute inflammatoryresponse of the cellular immune system! 1This explains the polar opposite relationship between acute discharginginflammations on the one hand and allergies and autoimmune

inflammations onthe other hand. The more a person has of one, the less he or she will haveof the other! A growing number of scientists believe that the increase inAmerica, Europe, Australia and Japan in allergic and autoimmune diseases(which stimulate the humoral or Th2 branch of the immune system) is causedby the lack of stimulation of the cellular or the Th1 branch of the immunesystem from the lack of acute inflammatory responses and discharges inchildhood. 2, 3, 4, 5 We need to identify the factors which cause thisshift in the function of the immune system or which cause allergies andautoimmune diseases in childhood to increase!If we now return to the original question of the mechanism of action ofvaccinations, we find what I believe is the key to the puzzle. Avaccination consists of introducing a disease agent or disease antigen intoan individualís body without causing the disease. If the disease agentprovoked

the whole immune system into action it would cause all thesymptoms of the disease! The symptoms of a disease are primarily thesymptoms (fever, pain, malaise, loss of function) of the acute inflammatoryresponse to the disease.So the trick of a vaccination is to stimulate the immune system justenough so that it makes antibodies and 'remembers' the disease antigen butnot so much that it provokes an acute inflammatory response by the cellularimmune system and makes us sick with the disease weíre trying to prevent!Thus a vaccination works by stimulating very much the antibody production(Th2) and by stimulating very little or not at all the digesting anddischarging function of the cellular immune system (Th1). Vaccine antigensare designed to be unprovocative or ìindigestibleî for the cellular immunesystem (Th1) and highly stimulating for the antibody-mediated humoralimmune system (Th2).Perhaps it is not difficult to

see then why the repeated use ofvaccinations would tend to shift the functional balance of the immunesystem toward the antibody-producing side (Th2) and away from the acuteinflammatory discharging side (the cell-mediated side or Th1). This hasbeen confirmed by observation especially in the case of Gulf War Illness:MOST VACCINATIONS CAUSE a SHIFT in IMMUNE FUNCTION from the Th1 side (acuteinflammatory discharging response) TO the Th2 side (CHRONIC AUTO-IMMUNE orALLERGIC RESPONSE). 6The outcome of this line of thought is that, contrary to previous belief;vaccinations do not strengthen or ìboostî the whole immune system. Insteadvaccinations over stimulate the ìtasting and rememberingî function of theantibody-mediated branch of the immune system (Th2), which simultaneouslysuppresses the cellular immune system (Th1) thus ìpreventingî the diseasein question.WHAT in reality IS PREVENTED IS NOT the DISEASE BUT the

ABILITY of ourCELLULAR IMMUNE SYSTEM to MANIFEST, to RESPOND to and to OVERCOME theDISEASE!There is no system of the human being, from mind to muscles to immunesystem, which gets stronger through avoiding challenges, but only throughovercoming challenges. The WISE USE of VACCINATIONS would be to USE THEMSELECTIVELY, and NOT ON a MASS SCALE. In order for vaccinations to behelpful and not harmful, we must know beforehand in each individual to bevaccinated whether the Th1 function or the Th2 function of the immunesystem predominates.In individuals, in whom the Th1 function predominates, causing many acuteinflammations because the cellular immune system is over reactive, avaccination could have a balancing effect on the immune system and behelpful for that individual. In individuals, in whom the Th2 functionpredominates, causing few acute inflammations but rather the tendency tochronic allergic or autoimmune

inflammations, a vaccination would cause theTh2 function to predominate even more, aggravating the imbalance of theimmune system and harming the health of that individual. This is whathappened in Gulf War Illness.The current use of vaccinations in medicine today is essentially aìshotgunî approach that ignores differences among individuals. In such anapproach some individuals may be helped and others may be harmed. Ifmedicine is to evolve in a healthy direction, we must learn to understandthe particular characteristics of each individual and we must learn how toindividualize our treatments to be able to heal each unique human being inour care.VACCINATIONS are usually effective in preventing an individual frommanifesting a particular illness, but they DO NOT IMPROVE the overallSTRENGTH or HEALTH of the individual nor of the immune system.Instead,VACCINATIONS MODIFY the REACTIVITY of the IMMUNE SYSTEM,

decreasingacute discharging inflammatory reactions and INCREASING the TENDENCY toCHRONIC ALLERGIC and AUTO-IMMUNE REACTIONS.Epidemiologic studies 7 8 9 have shown that as families improve theirliving conditions, hygiene, nutrition, literacy and education, the risk oflife-threatening acute infectious , inflammatory diseases very muchdecreases. Families with poor living conditions, hygiene, nutrition andliteracy would generally be most likely to benefit from vaccinations.Families with good living conditions, hygiene, nutrition and educationprobably would benefit from vaccinations very little or not at all.Individuals with a tendency to allergic or autoimmune diseases are LIKELYto BE HARMED BY VACCINATIONS.SIDE EFFECTS of VACCINATION are usually ALLERGIC or AUTOIMMUNE inflammatoryreactions caused by the shift of the immune systemís reactivity from theTh1 side to the Th2 side. Modern medicine is just beginning to

recognizethis. 10 Modern MEDICINE HAS NOT SCIENTIFICALLY MEASURED the RISK/BENEFITRATIO of ANY VACCINE. 11 Research into the risks of vaccines is veryinadequate, according to two comprehensive reports on vaccines by the U.S.Institute of Medicine in 1991 and 1994.My preceding explanation of how vaccinations affect the immune system istrue also in animals. Vaccinations cannot make animals healthier, but onlygood handling, environment and nutrition can make animals healthy andresistant to disease. Vaccinating pigs may prevent them from having illnessfrom one particular strain of virus but will not improve their overallresistance to other illnesses nor even to other strains of the same virus.It is important to remember that an infection with a particular virus orbacterium does not necessarily cause illness unless the resistance of theindividual is low. In the case of Japanese Encephalitis Virus (JEV),

mostinfections cause no symptoms and less than 0.1% of infected individualsdevelop severe encephalitis. 12 Individuals living in poor conditions, withpoor hygiene, nutrition and education are at higher risk of seriousillnesses from JEV or any other infection. In such individuals avaccination would most likely be helpful.VERY OFTEN the MEDIA EXAGGERATE the EXTENT of such outbreaks. Eachindividual should freely decide, based on knowledge and not on fear andhearsay, whether he or she or a child would benefit from a vaccination.References1 Parish, C.R.
