I have been given permission to crosspost the following in its entirety.

David Little is a fantastic homeopath; the best the world has. He follows in the steps of Samuel Hahnemann, but has progressed in his field. He has spent his life dedicated to homeopathy and is in the enviable position of being in possession of Samuel Hahnemann's original works and his Paris Casebooks

His writings are completely factual, so the information he writes regarding vaccinations since the time of Hahnemann is worth reading.



Dear colleagues,

Over the next days I will be continuing on some of the themes I raised
in Hahnemann's Genesis 1. The first subject I will take up is vaccination
in general and then raising conceiving and raising children in particular.
Without healthy, happier children tomorrow will not be a better world. As I
reach later middle age and face old age I know that my work on this earth
will someday be finished. At this stage of life what we leave behind
becomes a more important issue and legacy a more important word. If we have
any real legacy it is what we have done for others. This work starts at
home and then spreads to the society and the entire global village. Today,
I want to speak about how to build a better future with the same passion I
spoke about present and past in Genesis 1.

The idea behind immunizations is based on similar substances in that
the original substance has been modified so that it is not exactly the same
as the natural infection. Hahnemann supported vaccination although his
casebooks show that he sometimes treated the acute side effects of
vaccination. He knew vaccination could cause problems and even suggested
methods for reducing the risk. He felt that this method was homoeopathic
and that other preventative remedies might be found in a similar manner.
Hahnemann observation was that vaccination had reduced the virulency and
epidemic of smallpox. He thought, in his time and place, that the risk
versus benefit ratio was in favor of vaccination. These are the historical
facts so we best not ignore them based on our personal feelings.

It was Wolf and Boenninghausen who first spoke out strongly about the
long term side effects of smallpox vaccination. Then Boenninghausen
introduced Thuja as a curative as well as preventative remedy for the
miasm. This was quickly followed by the use of Variolinum based on Hering's
experiments with nosodes. The smallpox nosode was used with great success
in the USA during epidemics. There is amble documentation on this subject.
The complications associated with the homeopathic campaigns were minimal
and were mostly aggravations caused by the dose and potency. The homeopathic
method seems to have faired better than the orthodox vaccinations. So for
smallpox, at least, we do have some statistical and clinical data that shows
the nosodes work well. There are quite a few promising studies and even a
few laboratory confirmations of immune reactions. Homoeopathic prophylaxis
has worked well in the field over the last 162 years since Hahnemann passed
away.

Deel 2:

Orthodox immunization is similar in theory to the idea of nosode
prophylaxis but the size of the dose and the tendency to mix several
diseases together increases the danger associated with the method. The
injection of large doses of mixtures of miasms at the same time is very
questionable because it is so unnatural. The immune system is not designed
to be exposed to so many differing acute and chronic miasms in the first
five years of life. There is also the danger of contamination from
chemicals and other viruses.So what we have is the right idea being done in
the wrong manner. This is what I call "over-immunization". Too much of too
many things too fast. In the end one ends up with so many dissimilar miasms
affecting the vital force that they form dissimilar layers that can only
repress one another or form complex diseases, but never cure each other.

The continual production of antibodies for so many dissimilar diseases
so fast can cause the immune system to attack its own tissue, producing
vaccine related autoimmune disorders that appear as many different diseases
not related to immunization. The exact nature of the final form of the
vaccinosis is based on the heredity, constitution, temperament and
predispositions of the individual as well as the nature of the iatrogenic
miasm. The individualized nature of the reactions makes it almost
impossible to relate all the potential disorders by a simple 1+1= 2 linear
causation. For this reason, only the grossest side-effects that take place
more quickly are ever recorded. The rest is ignored or considered new
diseases.

Now we come to the risk versus benefit of orthodox immunizations. Some
say that all vaccinations do not work, but this is too sweeping of a
statement. Yes, studies show that certain vaccinations do not work very
well if at all. For example, WHO did a massive study of BCG in India and
found that it had no real effect on infection rates. Risk yes - cost yes-
benefit no! An MD (who is using more and more homeopathy) told me that in
his young years he saw lots of tetanus but he no longer sees it much these
days. At the same time, he told that DPT does not seem to have reduced the
incidents of whooping cough and many immunized children still get the
disease. This was his unprejudiced observation over the last 30 years. At
the same time, this shot is known to cause serious complications in quite a
few children. So what is the risk and what are the benefits? Should
everyone get the shot now because someday they "might" need it? If one gets
a deep puncture wound or serous laceration tetanus anti-toxin shots are
available at the time. Ledum and Hypericum offer an alternative even then.

Deel 3:

I once had a discussion with a pediatrician.about giving new born
babies hepatitis B shots in the first day of their lives. I ask him what
are the transmission vectors. He said the most common vectors were drug
addicts sharing needles and sexual intercourse. Then I ask him what were
the chances of a new born baby shooting drugs or having sex? He said
"none". Then I ask him why give them this immunization so close to birth
when they did not need it? He was lost for words. He was stuck in the
system and forced to follow standard practice.

They should not *over immunize* children for more and more disease
every year as if there is no limit to what the human organism can
tolerate. At first it causes a boast of specific antibodies but then it
exhausts the immune system, because it is not natural to be exposed to so
many diseases at any one time. They may or may not get the disease the vaccination
was given for but they do become more susceptible to a host of other
diseases. They should only give immunizations to those diseases that
present a clear and present danger. They should only give one immunization
at a time and then wait and watch the child's health. They should not
vaccinate children who an unhealthy or ill at the time. Each case should be
individualized according to the patient, time and circumstances. If the
orthodox school just followed these simple parameters the amount of
complications would be reduced. What they are doing lacks common sense as
well as medical prudence and is more about the assembly line production and
money, than about health.

Now let us look at Nature's Way. Why? Because if we are going to find a
better method than the orthodox mechanistic approach we must know what is
natural first. The immature immune system is supposed to be strengthened
through the parent's genes, exposure of the mother's blood and fluids in the
womb and by breast feeding. Breast milk increases the resistance to
infection and helps strengthen the growing immune system. Exposure in the
post-natal world to relative harmless microorganisms continues to develop
the resistance and adaption of the growing infant further.

Deell 4:

As the child starts to eat solid food the intestinal flora is developed
so that there is a healthy balance of positive and so-called negative
bacteria, fungi and parasites. If the internal terrain is balanced the
potentially pathological microorganisms are harmless and the process
further increases resistance and adaption. These are important phases of
living on the earth. Bacteria-phobia is one of the reasons for the
excessive use of antiseptics and chemical soaps that has lead to the derangement
of the system of mass defense leading to an increase of allergenic
disorders. We can not live a healthy life without the millions of
microorganisms that live within the human organism and surround us in life.

Life is a twin process of adaption or learning to live with relatively
harmless microorganism and gaining resistance to those which have
pathogenic potential. As long as the internal terrain is not unnaturally
deranged the human organism is ready, willing and able to strike up a
healthy balance in its internal medium. When there is a balance of learning
to adapted to that which is not really a threat and learning to resist that
which is a danger the individual healthy. If the internal terrain is
unbalanced by immunizations, antibiotics, fungicides and chemicals the same
relatively harmless microorganisms become out of balance and become
extremely pathological.

On top of this natural resistance the growing infant must eat a good
diet, feel loved and appreciated, and get enough exposure to the Nature's
elements to continue to evolve into its new environment. When such a child
begin to socialize they are expose to the common acute miasms, this is
another chance to strengthen its system of mass defense. This is a natural
immunization, which will make the child more resistance to all similar
acute diseases and may even cure the predigestions to certain similar
chronic disorders. In such a child their natural vitality and the acquired
resistance is usually sufficient so that there are no complications.

This is the ideal situation not a reality for each and every child
even in the natural world. Heredity, constitution, temperament and
predisposition combined with environmental factors are leading factors.
Some children are born with notable weaknesses, susceptibilities and lack
of vitality. They are always at a higher risk to suffering acute and
chronic miasmic infections and prone to complications. These children need
special attention until they overcome there innate disabilities and reach a
point of sufficient resistance, adaptation and vitality. Unfortunately,
those with compromised health are the most at risk of side effects from
orthodox immunization. It is a vicious circle.

I will continue this sage in Hahnemann's Genesis 3
