Like most people I have been listening to the dreadful news from Brazil, where over 4,000 babies have been born with abnormally small heads, and shrunken brains in the last 3 months. Previously, only 150 annual cases of microcephaly had been known.
This disaster has been blamed on the Zika virus, which is transmitted by the mosquito. On 21st January 2016 BBC News, alongside the rest of the media, reported:
"The Brazilian authorities believe the increase is caused by an outbreak of Zika virus."
Today (26th January 2016), BBC News reported the outbreak as 'Zika virus', and interview conventional medical staff who gave advice, but offered no treatment, and someone who is developing genetically engineered mosquitos as a possible solution! No mention that the cause of the microcephaly is unknown, or that the Zika virus is only a suspected cause. So presumably the cause of this dreadful outbreak has now been confirmed.
I was suspicious. But so, apparently, are the people of Brazil. This article from the 'Unhived Mind' website, "Brazilians not buying Zika excuse for babies with shrunken brains" offers a reason to suspect that we are not being told the truth, and an alternative explanation.
First the connection between this outbreak of microcephaly has been linked with Zika virus because a small number of babies who died had the virus in their brain. This is the reasonable conclusion reached in the article:
"Now I will translate this: There was a zika outbreak in Brazil. There was a huge surge in shrunken baby brains in Brazil. ONLY A SMALL NUMBER OF BABIES WHO DIED HAD THE VIRUS IN THEIR BRAIN. This means A LARGE NUMBER OF THE BABIES WHO DIED HAD NO ZIKA IN THEIR BRAIN. OUTPUT: The zika cases were coincidental, with the real problem completely unknown."
Second, they then quote BBC News' previous account of the outbreak, which stated that "Zika is generally mild and only causes symptoms in one in five people".
The 'Unhived Mind' article also comments of this.
"Ok so a do nothing virus is going around that only makes one in five people get mildly sick, with no symptoms in 4 out of 5 people. This virus has been known about since before 1948 and has never been known to cause birth defects. Since this is a proven mild virus with no history of causing birth defects, AND because a LARGE MAJORITY of babies with the new birth defects have no zika, then Zika is not causing it and someone is definitely beyond all doubt just using Zika as an excuse for something else, which strongly suggests a motive, and who would have a motive for blaming a huge surge in birth defects on a known benign virus that is not even present in a majority of cases?"
So what is the cause of this microcephaly outbreak if it is not the Zika virus?
A new TDAP vaccine was made mandatory at the beginning of 2015!
"..... which coincides with perfect timing with a whole bunch of newborns being born with defects. That’s right, in late 2014 the Brazilian minister of health announced a new TDAP shot to become mandatory for all expectant mothers..."
So, as they comment, no zika was found in a majority of microcephalic babies, but all mothers with microcephalic babies got the vaccine whilst they were pregnant.
Now, what exactly is the TDAP vaccine, and how can we avoid it? I certainly had not heard of it. But apparently it is a new form of DPT vaccine, the vaccine every young child is given, 3 times, in the early months of their lives!
So could the conventional medical establishment have found yet another vaccine that causes serious birth defects? And is the pharmaceutical industry, and their friends, including WHO, the Bill Gates Foundation, et al., embarking on a cover up?
If there is any truth in this, conventional medicine will have to act quickly and effectively.
The world of homeopathy needs to know the truth. If we believe that the Zika virus is causing this, we will have to work on this basis, and spend time looking for a remedy - and probably not finding one if misled in this way! If it is caused by the DPT vaccine we can antidote the vaccine.
Or better still, the vaccine could be immediately and completely withdrawn!
That will not happen, of course, they will not accept the link even if, or when it is proven. With the conventional medical establishment it is all cloaks and mirrors. They cause disease with one drug, then develop another drug for that disease, and profit from both. Ofuscation rules in this situation as it does in so many others. Denial follows denial. Lies, damned lies - and the conventional medical establishment!
Postcript (27th January 2016)
There is an issue in Britain about the use of the Pertussin (Whooping Cough) vaccine with pregnant women. The NHS Choices website seems to recommend it, even saying that it is safe.
"Pregnant women can safely help protect their babies by getting vaccinated – ideally when they are 28-32 weeks pregnant, although they may be given the vaccine up to 38 weeks of pregnancy. "
My understanding is that Brazil is using the Boostrix IPV with pregnant women. So should it be used with pregnant women? NHS Choices refers to the licence agreement for the vaccine, stating that it allows its use, when clearly needed, and when 'possible benefits outweigh the possible risk'. Yet it goes on to say this:
"It is standard practice with most medicines not to test them on pregnant women. This is why the manufacturer's information leaflet includes this statement, and not because of any specific safety concerns or evidence of harm in pregnancy."
Well, not testing a drug which has 'possible risks' suggests that doctors don't know what those risk are, but regardless, the vaccine is being used with women.
"Pertussis-containing vaccine has been used routinely in pregnant women in the UK since October 2012 and the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is carefully monitoring its safety. The MHRA's study of around 20,000 women vaccinated with Repevax found no evidence of risks to pregnancy or pregnancy outcome."
So, conventional medicine giving pregnant women an untested drug, presumably hoping for the best, but 'monitoring its safety'. Given the track record of such monitoring it is unlikely that any association between the vaccine and possible side effects would be admitted, or perhaps blamed on some other cause (although, of course, there are no mosquitos to blame in Britain).
The situation would appear to be the same in the USA. NHS Choices state that this vaccine is 'routinely recommend in the US for immunisation of pregnant women', and again, there 'no safety concerns have been identified'.
Or, perhaps as in Brazil, no safety concerns have been admitted by the conventional medical establishment there!
As I said, it is all smoke and mirrors. No consumer of pharmaceutical drugs or vaccines can be confident about anything they are told about either their safety or effectiveness.

This Natural News article subsequently found evidence from a 1991 study that the DPT vaccine was linked to microcephaly. The Zika virus was clearly a means of diverting attention from the impact of treating pregnant mothers in the area of the outbreak.
POSTSCRIPT 2
In June 2017, Vaccine Impact reported that the latest USA Government Account Office (GAO) report looking into the Zika virus confirmed what this blog said in January 2016 - namely, that the Zika crisis” was not only overblown, but used "to extract government funding to develop a vaccine that is not even needed". Such are the machinations of the pharmaceutical industry!

If there is any truth in this, conventional medicine will have to act quickly and effectively.
- They will have to denounce this as a 'conspiracy' theory.
- They will have to convince us that it is mosquitos, and not Big Pharma, who have caused this microcephaly.
- They will have to move quickly to defend mandatory vaccination, especially the vaccination of pregnant women.
- They will have to convince us that the TDAP vaccine is different to the DPT vaccine that they have been giving our children for decades.
And perhaps most difficult of all, the pharmaceutical industry, and conventional medical doctors, will have to convince us that this time they are telling the truth about this matter!
The world of homeopathy needs to know the truth. If we believe that the Zika virus is causing this, we will have to work on this basis, and spend time looking for a remedy - and probably not finding one if misled in this way! If it is caused by the DPT vaccine we can antidote the vaccine.
