The must have also had advanced chemistry to synthesize DDT. http://www.johnpowell.net/pages/Stele.jpg yawn, its polio EPIDEMICS http://www.whale.to/v/polio2.htm like autism EPIDEMICS http://www.whale.to/vaccines/vax_autism_q.html if polio is a poison disease which it obviously is, then it is bleeding obvious it has been around since the invention of poisons |

Which is it? Numerical note: US paralytic polio cases 1951-1960 totaled 92,984 US population in 1960 was 179,323,175 US population in 2000 was 281,421,906 The same per capita rate in 2000 as the average for 1951-1960 would have been 14,592 per year.

The lots were manufactured *exactly the same*, except that the one with LESS formaldehyde resulted in polio while the ones with MORE formaldehyde did not result in polio. Please, walk us through your logic. |

Greenberg and polio
On Dec 12, 4:37 pm, "Yuri Kuchinsky" wrote:
As I posted already, his views were also published in the August, 1960, Illinois Medical Journal. "In May of 1960, Dr. Ratner chaired a panel discussion, at the 120th Annual Meeting of the Illinois Medical Society to review the increasing rise in paralytic polio in the U.S. The proceedings were reprinted in the August, 1960, Illinois Medical Journal which exposed the Salk vaccine as a frank and ineptly disguised fraud. One of the experts on the panel, statistician Dr. Bernard Greenberg, who went on to testify at Congressional hearings, revealed how data had been manipulated to hide the dangers and ineffectiveness of the vaccine from the pubic. Dr. Greenberg explained that the perceived overall reduction in polio cases was achieved by changing the criteria by which polio was diagnosed. (2)" Yuri. Ahhhhhhh. I love interlibrary loan. For those of you who are interested, here's the complete reference for the entire world to see (and to show how the antivac whacks distort the truth). "The Present Status of Polio Vaccines" Moderator: Herbert Ratner, MD. Panelists Herald R. Cox, ScD, Bernard G. Greenberg, PhD, Herman Kleinman, MD, and Paul Meier, PhD. Illinois Medical Journal. August, 1960. pp 84-93. (Panel discussion edited from a transcript presented before the Section on Preventative Medicne and Public Health at the 120th annual meeting of the ISMS in Chicago, May 26, 1960.) Dr. Greenberg's position wasn't that the polio vaccine was ineffective, his position was that it wasn't *very* effective. He also made no statements that the vaccine was in any way dangerous. Here are a couple of excerpts from him about polio trends: "Without a doubt, the increasing trend has been reduced to some extent by the Salk vaccine." "However, any future substantial reduction in this trend will require a more potent vaccine, not simply vaccinating more people. If there were no other vaccine, complete vaccination of all susceptible persons in the population with the Salk vaccine would be justifiable." Potency is a function of increasing the number of inactivated viral antigens in the Salk vaccine, or using live virus as with the Sabin vaccine. "Today it may be a serious mistake to be ultraconservative in accepting the new live virus vaccines under the impression that there is no hurry because an almost equivalent immunizer exists in the Salk vaccine. A delay in accepting and promoting better vaccines will be a costly one." He said this in 1960. In 1961 the monovalent live Sabin vaccine was licensed. Clearly, Dr. Greenberg believed the Sabin vaccine was the answer and better than the Salk vaccine since technical hurdles (virus propagation in cell culture) prevented the Salk vaccine from being sufficiently potent. The paper also provides an elaboration as to why polio diagnosis was redefined. With the advent of cell culture-derived polio virus propagation, *laboratory* diagnostic testing that detected poliovirus antibodies was also developed. Previously, the diagnosis was based on *clinical* diagnosis (i.e., not antibody testing or virus isolation, but instead relying upon patient symptoms). It turns out that two other viruses were causing polio-like symptoms in people: Coxsackie B-5 and ECHO9 viruses. These infections were mistakenly identified as polio, when they were not. In other words, a new, more accurate and sensitive tool became available for diagnosing polio virus infection. Another feature of the paper shows one of the reasons why the Salk vaccine wasn't as good as they thought it was from the first clinical trial. Cell culture propagation of the viruses for the Salk vaccine produced only about 10 million (10^7) viruses per ml of culture fluid in the 1950s. This was 10-fold less than what was needed (10^8/ml) for effective ("potent") inactivated viral vaccines without adjuvant (which were not formulated in polio vaccines because safe ones were unavailable in the 1950s). It wasn't until 1967 that cells used for propagating polio viruses could be grown on microspheres, which increased the number of cells in the vaccine production run and, thus, the amount of virus produced. See this ref: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal.../216064a0.html Later, the viruses were adapted to continuous microsphere cell culture in Vero cells that resulted in 10^9 viruses per ml - and what is used in today's inactivated polio vaccine (IPV). Of course, the live trivalent Sabin oral polio vaccine (OPV) was licensed in 1963 and essentially displaced the Salk vaccine. With the ability to produce large numbers of virus in culture in the early 1970s AND with the eradication of wild polio in the US, the IPV replaced OPV in 2000 to obviate the rare instances of pathogenic vaccine reversion of the Sabin vaccine. I sure wish the antivac whacks could learn to tell the truth. |
