Combination MMR vaccines, linked to febrile seizures and autoimmune conditions, could be broken up into individual shots

The practice of combining multiple viral antigens into a single injection – a policy created out of convenience for vaccine makers – is overloading young immune systems, causing an increase in febrile seizures and triggering autoimmune reactions in some people. The MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) and MMRV (measles, mumps, rubella, varicella) vaccines are introducing too many viral antigens into underdeveloped immune systems, and their safety profiles are abysmal, their efficacy hard to prove.

After years of dismissing parental concerns, federal health officials now consider breaking up the three and four viral antigens and separating these doses into individual vaccines. Vaccine makers are concerned that this move will lower compliance with their product uptake. However, the move intends to expand parental choice and improve the safety record of vaccination, even though absolute safety and efficacy cannot be guaranteed with these outdated products and their poisonous adjuvants and preservatives.

Key points:

• Federal health officials are reviewing a plan to separate the combined MMR vaccine into individual shots.
• This reconsideration follows the CDC’s halt of the MMRV vaccine for young children due to a higher risk of febrile seizures.
• Research indicates combination vaccines lead to a higher rate of adverse events.
• Vaccines, through mechanisms like molecular mimicry, are suspected of playing a role in the development of autoimmune diseases.
• Separating antigens could expand parental choice and potentially reduce risks, but the medical establishment has long resisted this option.
• The separation does not guarantee absolute safety, as more individual injections will need to be plunged into arms to get the same level of viral antigens into kids.

The overloaded syringe: A recipe for immune system chaos

For years, the driving force behind combination vaccines like MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) and MMRV (which adds Varicella, or chickenpox) has been compliance.

It is much simpler for a pediatrician to administer one prick than three or four at a time, and it is easier for the CDC to ensure a child is fully vaccinated according to their rigid schedule. However, this convenience comes at a potential cost. The latest research confirms what many intuitive parents have long feared: Bombarding a toddler’s developing immune system with multiple live viruses and adjuvant chemicals simultaneously can lead to a higher rate of adverse events.

The immune system, in its frantic effort to mount a defense against this multi-pronged attack, can become dysregulated. It is like sending a young, untrained soldier into a complex battle on three different fronts simultaneously; the confusion can lead to tragic cases of friendly fire, where the body begins attacking its own healthy tissues. If the theory of vaccination is followed correctly, then each antigen would need to be injected one at a time, to allow the immune cells to properly respond.

The autoimmune connection: When the body turns on itself

Vaccines that were intended to protect children from illness can actually backfire against the child’s own immune system. The science points to two primary mechanisms. The first is epitope mimicry. Imagine the antigen in the vaccine has a molecular structure that looks very similar to a protein naturally found in the child’s own brain, nerve sheaths, or joints. When the immune system creates antibodies to fight the vaccine virus, those same antibodies can mistakenly identify the body’s similar-looking protein as a foreign invader and launch a sustained attack. This is not just theoretical. The scientific literature documents severe adverse events following immunization (AEFI) reported after MMR and varicella vaccination, including encephalitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, transverse myelitis, and vasculitis.

A second mechanism, bystander activation, involves the non-specific activation of dormant autoreactive T-cells, which then go on to damage healthy cells. The pathogenetic mechanisms are not yet fully understood, which is precisely why a more cautious approach is warranted. Why are we injecting millions of healthy children with a biological product when the long-term consequences for their complex immune systems are still, by science’s own admission, a mystery?

A system rigged for profit, not protection

The resistance to offering single-antigen vaccines is not rooted in medical necessity but in a system corrupted by profit and power. Merck, a primary producer of the MMR vaccine, has consistently opposed separating the combination, arguing that multi-dose regimens improve compliance. But what good is compliance if it compromises a child’s health? This is the same company currently being sued in federal court by its own top scientists, Joan Wlochowski and Steve Krahling, who bravely allege that Merck defrauded regulators about the efficacy of their MMR vaccine.

Consider the advertising stranglehold as well; 17 out of 22 ads in a typical news broadcast are from pharmaceutical companies. Is it any wonder that news of vaccine injuries and ineffectiveness is suppressed? The recent move to reconsider separating vaccines feels less like a proactive measure for child safety and more like a reluctant, belated reaction to overwhelming evidence that can no longer be ignored. When will the health of our children be prioritized over the compliance metrics of bureaucrats and the profit margins of drug companies? The integrity of our children’s future depends on the answer.
