Jabs, Jenner and Juggernauts [Paperback]

Jennifer Craig (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 2, 2009

Jabs, Jenner & Juggernauts: a Look at Vaccination is a personal account of the author's (a former nurse) research into vaccination literature. The story begins with Lady Mary Wortley Montagu's introduction of smallpox inoculation into England in 1746 and continues into the present day. Some descriptions are written as 'interviews' with authors, alive or dead, in which the dialogue is taken directly from the author's work; some are imagined scenes of actual events; some are straight accounts of research data, often illustrated with graphs. The book is written for those without a strong medical or scientific background and is particularly useful for parents who are facing the decision of whether to vaccinate their children. REVIEWS Edda West Vaccination Risk Awareness Network, Canada "I've always felt it is really important to cast a light of truth on the smallpox vaccine mythology and how it is still worshipped by the medical profession as the greatest gift to mankind. Hopefully your book will go a long way in really rocking this foundation of lies." Hilary Butler Immunization Awareness Society, New Zealand "An irreverent, funny, but incisive kitchen table dissection of a sacred medical cow" Viera Scheibner, Ph.D, Australia Author of Vaccination: 100 Years of Orthodox Research Shows that Vaccines Represent a Medical Assault on the Immune System "There is always space for another good book against vaccination; one that will open people's eyes about the nasty reality of vaccination." Sheri Nakken, Vaccination Information & Choice Network, Washington State, USA You've done an excellent job and this book will be very useful to all people who question vaccination.

This review is from: Jabs, Jenner and Juggernauts (Paperback)

Jennifer Craig is a nurse, as am I, and has done an incredible job sharing the story of the dangers of vaccines in a very entertaining, storytelling way. She shares many graphs to show the huge decline in deaths from diseases after improvement in sanitation and BEFORE a vaccine was invented. Yes, before the vaccine, huge declines in deaths. She also takes us back to the time when there was smallpox, a disease of a filthy environment, and has fascinating stories to tell.

This is not a typical vaccination book showing you the need for them or the dangers of them. Ms. Craig, takes you on a journey, as a great storyteller would, and makes the stories and history come alive.

We, as health care professionals as well as you as the public, all were only told one side of the vaccine issue - the only side the manufacturers and marketers of vaccines want you to know. There is much more to the story - this long sad story of trying to bring health by injecting disease and toxic chemicals and substances.....

This review is from: Jabs, Jenner and Juggernauts (Paperback)

Jennifer Craig, PhD. is the author of Jabs, Jenner & Juggernauts, A Look At Vaccination.

This is an extraordinary book by an extraordinary personality. The author is a PhD Nurse with an abundance of experience. She holds nothing back and says exactly what she thinks and feels! If you don't read this book, you will have less than a partial picture of the vaccine issue. She has done her homework when medicine, science and government have not. Now, it's up to you to read her well thought out information and experience.

Without this information, you will never be able to make an informed decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Time to reconsider our blind trust in the honesty of the medical institution, October 31, 2009

HIV skeptic - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jabs, Jenner and Juggernauts (Paperback)

I was moved by that book for various reasons. First as a long term patient once, I remember how considerate and humane some nurses were. Jennifer Craig is something more than that. Like a protagonist of the films on the Second World War, where the nurse takes initiatives, gets informed and gives important information to the patient, Dr. Craig moved forward on studying the subject, becoming a PhD herself and returned to the patients through a lively book on vaccination.

I was also touched as a mother to be. My children get vaccinated? "The incidence of autism in the USA, were all children, often by law, are vaccinated is now one in every 96 boys. In the UK in 2008 it was estimated to be one in 66. Prior to 1970, autism incidence was 1: 2000. Is there a correlation between autism rates and vaccination rates? Mention this possibility to most conventional Western, or 'allopathic' health practitioners and you may well be treated as though you had accused the pope of indecent exposure."

I laughed loud a few times reading the whole story of vaccination, from Lady Mary Wortley Montagu (1689-1762) to Edward Jenner (1749-1823) and Charles Creighton in the nineteenth century, but as the narration comes to our time things are getting much more familiar and thrilling. "Following Jenner's death the vaccine establishment used one excuse after another to explain the failure of vaccination: the number of punctures was incorrect, or that re-vaccination was necessary or that the lymph was impure. The deaths of vaccinated patients in hospital were recorded as 'pustular eczema'."

What are we going to do now? "Mendelsohn, a pediatrician, says: Today your child has about as much chance of contracting diphtheria as she does of being bitten by a cobra. Yet millions of children are immunized against it with repeated injections at two, four, six, and eighteen months and then given a booster shot when they enter school. This, despite evidence from over more than a dozen years of rare outbreaks of the disease, that children who have been immunized fare no better than those who have not."

I wondered as a journalist, where did Dr. Craig learn to be so short, precise and accurate? She is masterly in handling her stuff, exchanging short stories and dialogues with questions like What does a vaccine contain? What are the side effects? And how many children suffer from collateral damage?

The book's core is well summarized in her saying: "My grandmother's generation and indeed, my own, didn't expect kids to live without infectious disease, aches and injuries, for which they harboured tried and true home remedies. They would find it incomprehensible that this generation is willing to tolerate asthma, food allergies and autism instead of chicken pox".

The book is well documented and we should take her conclusion seriously: "Vaccination is the biggest medical scam of the twentieth century with iatrogenic consequences that will take decades to mop up". Time to reconsider our blind trust in the honesty of the medical institution.
