Technically speaking, encephalitis is defined as a brain inflammation,

and is a sub-class of a category of disease known as encephalopathy,

generally defined as brain disease; physicians do not make a systematic

distinction between these concepts, and they are used as synonyms.

Physicians have always known that encephalitis can be caused by

vaccinations/immunizations. One of the remarkable aspects of encephalitis

is that it spawns a great variety of physiological, neurological, mental,

behavioral and emotional symptoms.

It can be seen by the quotes that preface this chapter that it was known

as early as 1926 that encephalitis could readily be caused by vaccines.

Encephalitis that appeared in an otherwise healthy human being after

vaccination was initially considered to be " atypical " , but it

was realized that these " atypical " cases could in fact mimic

meningitis, viral encephalitis, poliomyelitis and practically all acute

diseases of the nervous system. This is true of encephalitis induced by

any vaccination. For example, let's look at DPT vaccines.

According to studies in 1965 by Margaret Pittman, one of the most

prominent pertussis vaccine researchers in the United States, pertussis

vaccine (the " P " in the DPT vaccine) is one of the most

dangerous childhood vaccines. It is a vaccine made from Bordetella

pertussis, the same bacterium that causes the disease, and is unique in

its marked ability to modify biological responses. One of the

manufacturers of pertussis vaccine, Connaught Laboratories, stated in a

1986 package insert for pertussis vaccine that " systemic reactions

such as fever occur quite frequently. Respiratory difficulties have been

observed. Moderate to severe systemic events such as a fever of 105 or

higher, and persistent inconsolable crying lasting three hours or more,

unusual high-pitched screaming, collapse, or convulsions occur. More

severe neurologic complications, such as a prolonged convulsion or an

encephalopathy, occasionally fatal, have been reported. Analphylactic

reactions have been reported. Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) has

occurred in infants following administration of DPT. Onset of infantile

spasms has occurred in infants who have recently received DPT or

DT. " Any of these symptoms are indicative of some degree of brain

damage.

As far as DPT and other vaccinations are concerned, a review of available

literature produced a plethora of additional information relative to the

known childhood reactions, also common with encephalitis: vomiting,

diarrhea, flatulence, gastroenteritis, stomach aches, enuresis,

constipation, loss of sphincter control, back-arching, dilation of

pupils, lack of appetite, disturbances of sleep rhythm, severe headache,

bulging of the skull, night terrors and chronic sleep disturbances,

violent respiration, sudden death, breath holding (apnea), cyanosis,

convulsions, development of autistic symptoms, profuse soapy yellow-green

diarrhea, dry cough, crossing of the eyes, loss of coordination, severe

stuttering and stammering, inability to swallow food, otitis with

consequent hearing loss, dyslexia, dysgraphia, reading difficulties,

inability to deal with abstractions, facial palsy, hypersalivation,

involuntary grunting, changed sensitivity to pain, unusual sensitivity to

heat, hyperacute hearing, flaccidity, severe one-sided paralysis,

paraplegia, quadriplegia, arrested mental development, spacticities,

clumsiness, unexplained seizures, development of Parkinson's Disease

later in life, intellectual and physical regression, development of

left-handedness or ambidexterity, development of long-term effects in the

absence of acute reaction, , pronouncement of the Moro Reflex,unexplained

changes in muscle tone, stiffness of the neck, sudden lapse into

unconsciousness, unusual difficulty in arousal and deafness.

The initial symptoms of post-vaccination encephalitis may be minimal, but

this does not prevent other effects from manifesting later on, or mean

that minimal brain damage has not occurred. Any researcher who ignores or

rejects the possibility that vaccination can cause the most serious

neurologic disorders in the absence of a marked acute reaction on an

immediate basis is faced with finding grounds for distinguishing

post-vaccinal encephalistis from encephalitis due to other causes. A

patient manifesting the typical long-term effects of vaccination is

probably a victim of vaccination, even if no acute reaction was observed

immediately subsequent to vaccination.

The fact that many of the symptoms above could be connected was not

generally publicized in professional circles until 1982, when Norman

Geschwind and Behan published their finding of an association among

autism, celiac disease, dyslexia, stuttering, migrane headaches,

developmental disabilities and left-handedness, which are all features of

post encephalitic syndrome. Their article caused a bit of a sensation in

scientific circles because of the basic inability of professions to

imagine what the connecting thread among these disparate conditions could

be. We now know that vaccinations are the connecting thread, but for

physicians and professionals to openly admit that would mean the loss of

their professional license and livelihood which, of course, would serve

them right for participating in this insidious process in the first

place. It must be strange to be trapped in that vicious circle of

professional deceit.

The fact that something was going on became apparent in 1943, when world

famous child psychologist Leo Kanner described 11 cases of a new mental

illness in young people which he termed " inborn autistic

disturbances of affective contact " . Initially known as early

infantile autism, these first cases emerged in the United States at the

same time as vaccination against pertussis (whooping cough) was becoming

increasingly widespread.

One of the outstanding features of the autistic child was self-absorbed

alienation, or the inability to relate themselves in the normal way to

people and situations from the very beginning as infants, living in a

world of their own. This also manifests itself as a gross and sustained

impairment of emotional relationships with others, aloofness, abnormal

behavior toward other people as persons, difficulty in mixing or playing

with other children. As these children become older, they appear to have

almost a mechanistic function and seem to be without emotional awareness

of social interaction or empathic relatedness. No doubt, vaccinations

seem to be the ultimate origin of the " blind date from hell "

which we have all experienced at one time or another, and this emotional

emptiness is typically what we see today with young people and the

preceding several generations subject to vaccines. The longer the problem

goes on, the worse everything becomes on a social level.

Other psychological symptoms attributed to minimum brain damage (MBD)

caused by post vaccinal encephalitis are ego weakness , often with

compensating hypersexuality and aggression, depression and suicide,

resistance to change, inability to conceptualize and acquire experience,

intellectual fragmentation, constant search for structure, development of

contact disorders, development of feelings of inadequacy and sociopathic

personality structures, and tendencies toward commission of violent

criminal acts.

As the neurological basis for all of this was gradually understood, the

characteristic alienation, withdrawal and ego weakness (initially seen as

a casual observation) were discovered to be the effect of a

sense-perception disorder. Ordinarily, when we receive information

through the senses, we extract meaning and organize it in the form of

concepts or ideas. These are stored in the memory and recalled when

necessary. In this way, sense perception and memory assist in the

acquisition of experience. Minimum brain damage, however slight, has an

effect on this process. Severely autistic children seem to have a

preoccupation with sensory impressions, and are unable to organize them

into functional patterns. Furthermore, the process of maturing involves

moving beyond concrete sense perception into the world of abstraction.

This process is impacted by situations where immature development and

organization of the frontal and temporal lobes has taken place, hence the

person affected cannot create and manipulate the symbols which normal

people use to represent and act upon external reality. Testing of

austistics has also disclosed damage to both the brainstem and cranial

nerves. Thus, neurological research demonstrates that developmental delay

reflects an actual biological delay in maturation of the brain and

nervous system. This can manifest itself in the failure to develop

abstract reasoning and the relative inability to process symbolic

information.

In the 1960's, there was a tremendous upsurge in childhood autism, and

parents went in droves to psychiatrists. This increased prevalence of

autism matches and reflects the expansion of mandated vaccination

programs during the same time period. Today, autism is a real growth

industry. The same parallels can be found in every country on the

planet.

But what does this have to do with most people, you ask, since most

people do not appear to be classified as autistic? The answer is that

post vaccinal encephalitis manifests itself on a sliding scale of minimum

brain damage that also manifests as other physiological and psychological

conditions.

Hyperactivity began to manifest itself within about a decade after the

first cases of childhood autism began to appear in the mid-1950's. In

1963, the U.S. Public Health Service listed nearly 100 symptoms and signs

associated with hyperactivity, and changed the designation to minimal

brain dysfunction. The expression " minimum brain damage " (MBD)

is more accurate, since dysfunction is a consequence of actual brain

damage. In 1971, Wender, a leading authority at the time, wrote that

MBD " occurs in conjunction with and is possibly the basis of

virtually all categories of childhood behavior disturbances. It is

probably the most common single entity seen in child guidance

clinics. " Even the Ivy League schools had something to say about

MBD. A study at Yale Medical School in 1984 revealed that MBD is

" perhaps the most common and time-consuming problems in current

pediatric practice. " Even the AMA admits the severity of the

objective problem. It is estimated that MBD affects up to 20% of school

children , and is at this point referred to as Attention Deficit

Hyperactivity Disorder, which the schools are treating with Ritalin and

other stimulant drugs. These drugs themselves can induce further damage

in children with MBD.

Children who have MBD often have a limited attention span, even when of

normal or superior IQ, and they do poorly in school because they are

distracted easily and fail to complete work in the allotted time, often

resulting in the label " absent-minded " . MBD children may also

have an excessively long attention span, and can spend a long time on a

project until they are completely done. It is possible for children to

grow out of MBD, but this happens only in very mild cases; attention span

difficulties and other problems, however, can continue into adult life.

There is no cure once MBD has occurred. Medical and psychiatric

approaches to MBD, as mentioned, involve heavy use of drugs to suppress

or modify symptoms of MBD.

In the same way that researchers found that autism was associated with

many nervous symptom problems in 1982, they found that MBD syndrome was

associated with mental retardation, seizures, cerebral palsy and other

neurological signs and problems which do not readily fit into behavioral

or emotional categories, despite the concerted effort to fit them into

such categories. Because autism is essentially an MBD problem, all the

problems associated with it are also reflected in other MBD categories.

That is, the MBD syndrome is also associated with left-handedness,

clumsiness, seizure disorders, etc.

It is interesting that in 1987 a Washington Post-ABC News poll revealed

that 16% of all Americans under 30 years of age are left-handed or

ambidextrous, as opposed to only 12% of those under sixty. This is

significant, because it ties the production of MBD in the population to

specific time periods that just happen to coincide with all the major

vaccination programs in the United States. Another survey revealed that

13% of 20 year olds were lefties, compared to 5% of persons in their

fifties. Sleep disturbances are also very common in this population, and

the emergence of MBD around 1955 also coincided with the emergence of

this problem. Of course, it was viewed as strictly a psychiatric problem

to be controlled with therapy and brain-altering drugs, further damaging

the brain and psyche of all concerned. Since 1970, a new condition in

adults arose, labeled " delayed sleep phase syndrome " -

inability to fall asleep before the early hours of the morning. MBD

children grown up. In addition, urinary control problems accompany this

MBD condition.

Children, adolescents and adults with MBD can also have appetite

disorders, refusing to eat even when hungry. Those suffering from

anorexia nervosa may in fact suffer from MBD, together with Psychosocial

concerns about appearance. Anorexia can also be caused by the very

amphetamines given to children to control hyperactivity. MBD children may

also suffer from bulimia, also a condition which, like anorexia, came

into prominence in the 1960's. Surveys indicate that 15% of adolescent

girls in the United States experience serious problems with either

anorexia or bulimia. Interestingly, hyperactivity seems to predominate in

MBD males and eating disorders in MBD females - at least as visible

physiological problems. Very often, the psychological and behavioral

problems are much more severe.

The Problem of Allergic Reaction to Vaccination

As early as 1938, the relationship between allergies, vaccination and

encephalitis has been a topic of medical investigation. In 1954, it was

additionally noted by researchers that the common factor in the pathology

of encephalitis from vaccination was " anaphylactic

hypersensitivity. " Stanford University performed experiments in 1983

which gave indications that children with existing allergies many

overreact to pertussis vaccine. It is interesting to note that 80% of

autistic children and adults have severe allergies, as well as high

levels of serotonin in the brain, released during the process of allergic

and anaphylactic reaction. One of the most serious allergies is to

products containing wheat or gluten. It is also known that hyperactive

and MBD individuals also manifest a high level of allergic reaction. It

is interesting to note that the autoimmune diseases - rheumatoid

arthritis, systemic lupus, erythematosus, allergic rhinitis, wheat

allergy (celiac disease), pernicious anemia and others also came to

prominence in the 1950's.

In 1970, researcher G.A. Rosenburg theorized that " an autoimmune

allergic mechanism has been postulated as the cause of post-vaccinal

encephalitis, possibly with an initial invasion of the nervous system by

a virus, with a subsequent antigen-antibody reaction " .

In 1982, Israeli scientists found autistic children to have a " cell

mediated immune response to brain tissue " , suggesting that a neural

autoimmune reaction may play a part in the pathogenesis of autism.

Researchers in both France and the United States have found the immune

system of autistic children to be hypersensitive. Of course, all this is

" after the fact " . It either does not occur to these researchers

that the true source of the problem is the vaccination process, or they

suspect it and are afraid for their lives or jobs, which of course depend

on the true cause being hidden in the first place.

The Mechanism of Encephalitic Damage from Vaccines

One of the keys to understanding what is happening is to understand that

the myelin sheath, the fatty protective coating around the nerves,

spreads through the nervous system in developmental stages. The myelin

sheath, in some nerves, does not even begin to grow until the child is at

least eight months old. In fact, the growth of the insulating sheath

proceeds at different rates in different areas in the nervous system for

the first 15 years of life. In some areas, growth of myelin continues

until the mid 40's. What does this mean? When cultural vaccination

programs initiate neurotoxic processes in early childhood, it severely

affects the development of the nervous system by impacting growth of the

nervous system. Myelination processes begin in the phylogenetically older

parts of the brain, such as the brain stem, and then moves to the areas

of the nervous system that have developed recently in humans. Obviously,

the cerebral hemispheres and the cerebral cortex are the last to be

protected. The sheath is necessary for the development of the nerves, so

when the cultural vaccination programs inject harmful toxins into a

newborn infant or children, the myelination process is interrupted to one

degree or another and MBD occurs.

In 1947, Isaac Karlin suggested that stuttering was caused by " delay

in the myelinization of the cortical areas in the brain concerned with

speech. " In 1988, research by Dietrich and others using MRI imaging

of the brains of infants and children from four days old to 36 months of

age have found that those who were developmentally delayed had immature

patterns of myelination. It has also been found that impairment of these

processes can alter neural communication without necessarily causing

severe CNS damage. So, these facts have been satisfactorily proven by

science, but ignored and suppressed by mainstream medical establishment.

Babies and children pay the price, and society pays the price when these

individuals grow up and begin to exhibit aberrant behavior, affecting

social structure, increasing crime and necessitating more authoritarian

social control mechanisms.

We can see that the assocition between post-encephalitic syndrome and

either demyelination or incomplete myelination of the brain is pretty

straight forward. In might be mentioned at this point that polio, or

poliomyelitis, involves a breakdown of the myelin shealth, which causes

paralysis. We also know that encephalitis, whether caused through disease

or as a result of vaccination, can cause demyelination of the nerves, and

that this has been known since the 1920's.

The exact role of the allergic reaction in encephalitis was not

completely understood until about 1935, with the discovery by

Rivers of the phenomenon known as " experimental allergic

encephalomyelitis, " or (EAE). Up until 1935, it was assumed that

encephalitis was caused by some viral or bacterial infection of the

nervous system, and a search began in the 1920's for some organism that

might cause the problem. Rivers was able to produce brain inflammation in

laboratory monkeys by injecting them repeatedly with extracts of sterile

normal rabbit brain and spinal cord material, and this made it quite

apparent that encephalitis was an allergic reaction. This explains the

association of allergies and autoimmune states with prior cases of

encephalitis.

In 1922, the smallpox vaccination program caused an outbreak of

encephalitis, with a secondary result of Guillain-Barre Syndrome, an

ascending paralysis ending in death. For some reason, the fact that the

vaccinations were directly connected was hidden from the public until

1942. In 1953 it was realized that some of the epidemic children's

diseases, measles in particular, were demonstrating an increased

propensity to attack the central nervous system. This indicated a growing

allergic reaction in the population to both the diseases and the

vaccinations for the diseases. In 1978, British researcher

Bannister observed that the demyelinating diseases were getting more

serious " because of some abnormal process of sensitization of the

nervous system. " I submit that the process of increased sensitivity

was a normal occurance - it could only be seen as abnormal if the

connection between the vaccines and the sensitization process, which by

then should have been obvious with the research conducted, was

deliberately ignored. The fact of the matter is that it is a matter of

record that it was known that vaccinations produced encephalitis since

1926. The sensitization of the population was being enhanced by

vaccination programs. Someone had to know, since the connection was a

matter of record.

Now, people who suffer from certain degrees and aspects of MBD are less

likely to have success in getting along in society. Not unexpectedly, as

the number of MBD people increases and the number of people unable to

relate to others because of degradation of the nervous system increases,

the number of unsuccessful social interactions leading to unacceptable

social behavior will also increase. A look at the statistics proves this

to be the case. At the end of this chapter is a general chronological

breakdown reflecting these trends. Some of the statistics are as

follows:

The murder rate doubled between 1960 and 1980, from four per 100,000

people (4:100,000) to 8:100,000. In 1987, there were over 20,000 murders

in the United States. The largest increase was between 1960 and 1970. The

murder rate in Western Europe remained at an even 1: 100,000. The general

figures for crimes of all categories went from 4,000:100,000 in 1971 to

6000: 100,000 in 1980. It has stabilized around 5,000: 100,000.

Between 1970 and 1980, the number of arson incidents rose 325%. In 1933,

the incidence of violent crime (murder, rape, robbery) was 200: 100,000.

By the 1940's it had declined to 100: 100,000, but by 1963 it was back to

the 1933 level. Since 1963, it has climbed steadily, reaching 500:

100,000 in 1978 and 650: 100,000 in 1987. You really cannot blame all of

this just on the concept of poverty, since it is three times higher today

than in 1933 and six times higher than in the 1940's. The crimes are also

taking on an air of real brutality, even those performed by females. In

1969 only 12% of female adolescents committed violent acts. By 1979, it

had risen to 48%. Child abuse started to become a public problem in

during the Bush and Reagan administration in the 1980's. In 1986, there

were 2.1 million reports of child abuse in the United States - a 200%

rise since 1976.

The prison population has doubled since 1970. In California, it tripled

between 1977 and 1988, after only 10 years. Today the ratio of people in

prison is 250: 100,000 (in comparison, it was 29: 100,000 in 1850. The

characteristics of murder changed from being predominately one between

people who knew each other before 1963, but after 1963 it began to

accelerate to where people are murdered by people they don't even know,

more often than by someone they do know.

It was noted in 1988 that adults with a history of attention-deficit

hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are predominant in the felon popoulation in

prisons. A large majority of the prison population involved in serious

crime appear to have been categorized as hyperactive in their youth.

Hyperactivity often declines in MBD affected individuals, and is replaced

by aggressiveness and a hair-trigger temper, with MBD individuals as

adults showing destructive impulsive behavior. Other common features with

violent criminals are short attention spans, dyslexia, general learning

disabilities, dysgraohia, dyscalcula (inability to perform basic

calculations), defective sequential memory, and reading disabilities, all

of which contribute to a condition of social incompatibility. It is

interesting to note that in 1970, it was found that 33% of children with

conduct disorders were reading disabled. Students are graduated from high

school with a reading level equivalent to that in second or third grade.

The schools cannot cope with the increased number of MBD students, and

are graduating them just to get rid of them. Those with MBD conduct

disorders eventually move psychologically to where they have sociopathic

personalities involving childish egotism and self-centeredness bound to

conflict with ordinary society.

In 1928, A British physician noted that changes in morals and character

in patients who have had encephalitis reveal " a curious

uniformity " . All those who were neurologically damaged react their

own inability to successfully interact with society with aggression,

impulsive unreflective behavior and irrationality. Adolescents within the

vast spectrum involving MBD are often drawn to drugs and alcohol by the

need to offset hyperactivity, or by an inherent realization that they

somehow do not feel normal, unable to cope with life's ordinary

stresses.

The pertussis vaccination program was rather sporadic in the 1920's and

1930's, becoming widespread during and after World War II. The appearance

of autism and learning disabilities reflects the growth of the

vaccination program. Vaccinations yielded the first autistics in the

early 1940's. Learning disabilities emerged eight or ten years later,

when the children of this same generation were seen to have chronic

difficulties in school. The learning disabled children of the early

1950's were brothers and sisters of the autistics of the early 1940's.

The generation born in 1945, and thus exposed for the first time to

widespread vaccination, came of age in 1963, when they reached the age of

18. The year 1963 also marked the beginning of the general decline of

intelligence in the United States - a fact revealed when the generation

in 1963 took entrance examinations for college and the military. In 1963,

the average SAT verbal score was 478 and the math was 502. It began to

decline until by 1980 the verbals score was 424 and the math 466. The

scores today are the lowest ever recorded. Tests given to military

recuits in the 1970's showed their mental capacity to be significantly

lower than recruits between 1941 and 1945. In 1977, a panel was convened

to ascertain the reasons for the IQ decline, and 79 hypotheses were

advanced. None proved to explain the problem. The vaccination problem was

not one of the 79 hypotheses.

A national study in 1988 found that mathematical ability has virtually

vanished in American adolescents. Half the applicants for college cannot

read at the 10th grade level or solve eighth grade problems in

mathematics.

In 1965, Congress passed the Immunization Assistance Act. More and more

states extended their vaccination programs and made them obligatory. By

1970, physicians encountered a whole new group of neurologically

defective four and five-year-olds. A 1986 National Health Review Survey

found that between 1969 and 1981, the prevalence of

" activity-limiting chronic conditions " in children younger that

17 had increased, for no understandable reason, almost 44%. Almost all of

the increase occurred between 1969 and 1975. Most of these conditions are

readily associated with post encephalitic syndrome. All of the childhood

respiratory diseases increased 47%, childhood asthma 65%, mental and

nervous system disorders 80%, personality and non-psychotic mental

disorders went up over 300%, diseases of the eyes and ears increased

120%, with hearing loss increasing 129 percent. In 1993, President Bill

Clinton proposed a National Vaccination Program.
