From New York Times best-selling author Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., comes a science-based call for the immediate removal of the dangerous mercury-containing preservative Thimerosal from vaccines. Over a decade ago, following a sharp rise in developmental disorders such as autism and ADHD, the mercury-containing preservative Thimerosal was widely believed to have been eliminated from vaccine supplies in the United States and abroad.

The enormous human and economic toll of the rapidly spreading COVID-19 disease offers a vivid reminder that infectious disease pandemics are one of the greatest existential threats to humanity. This book provides an accessible explanation of how viruses emerge to cause pandemics, how our immune system combats them, and how diagnostic tests, vaccines, and antiviral therapies work - concepts that are a foundation for our public health policies.

Over the past 50 years, rates of autoimmunity and chronic disease have exploded. In this provocative book, Dr. Thomas Cowan argues for a direct causal relationship to a corresponding increase in the number of vaccines American children typically receive. The goal of these vaccines is precisely what we’re now seeing in such abundance among our chronically ill children: the provocation of immune response. Cowan looks at emerging evidence that certain childhood illnesses are actually protective of disease later in life.

Eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Anleitung zum Beenden der Corona-Pandmie. Wir kämpfen nicht nur gegen das Coronavirus, sondern ebenso gegen die Gesetzmäßigkeiten der Evolution: Viren verändern sich schneller, als es Wissenschaftlern möglich ist, neue Impfstoffe zu entwickeln. Wenn jedoch die Natur stärker ist als unsere technologischen Fähigkeiten, sollten wir uns dann nicht mit ihr verbünden, anstatt sie zu bekämpfen? Schließlich hat sie uns mit der bewährten immunologischen Fähigkeit ausgestattet, Viren wie Corona effizient zu besiegen – sonst gäbe es uns schließlich nicht mehr.

"Desde el comienzo de la pandemia en México, me indignaron las declaraciones del subsecretario de Salud, Hugo López-Gatell: su insistencia en que la enfermedad no era más grave que la influenza, el exceso de confianza en que todo estaba previsto y el espectáculo teatral de sus apariciones públicas.

Technological innovation is deeply woven into the fabric of American culture, and is no less a basic feature of American health care. Medical technology saves lives and relieves suffering, and is enormously popular with the public, profitable for doctors, and a source of great wealth for industry.

How can we deny people what they may need to live and flourish?
