Polio. A disease conquered by conventional medicine and vaccines? So what is the Acute Flaccid Myelitis mystery??

One of the crowning triumphs of conventional medicine (sic) is that it has vanquished the scourge of poliomyelitis. It stands alongside the triumph of antibiotic drugs, which are now approaching the final stages of usefulness.

So what, then, is Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM)? The BMJ describes it as 'a mystery'. Wherever else AFM is mentioned it is described as 'a polio-like' illness. It is now said to be 'sweeping the USA'. It is 'being investigated' in Britain too (an no doubt around the world as well).And there are also claims, from families with children who have been struck down by the illness that the USA's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is doing all it can to cover this up, and pretend that nothing is happening.

So is this yet another cover-up by the conventional medical establishment?

Pharmaceutical companies have a history of changing the names of their drugs. Every drug has a multiplicity of names, used to confuse patients (and doctors?) about what they are taking. For instance, perhaps the most infamous of all pharmaceutical drugs - Thalidomide - was never actually banned but miraculously re-appeared in 1998 as a treatment for leprosy! But, of course, the drug was not marketed as thalidomide. The drug remained the same. Only its name changed! In case we noticed!

So how does conventional medicine protect its reputation? It would be devastating for them to admit that polio, or any of the other 'vaccine-conquered' illness, still existed. So there is no longer any Whooping Cough (Pertussin) around now - thanks to the MMR vaccine of course. But there is a huge increase in what doctors now call the "100 day cough".

So what about AFM? Is it really polio?

Conventional medicine does not deny the existence of AFM. The 2015 BMJ article, referred to above, states that "it affects motor neurons in spinal cord gray matter resulting in asymmetrical limb weakness affecting main young children", concluding that "case control studies are planned to look for clues, but presently AFM is a mystery disease of unknown cause" (my emphasis). The similarity between AFM symptoms, loss of muscle tone, difficulty swallowing, loss of reflexes, sudden weakness, leading to paralysis and often death with polio symptoms seems to have quite escaped them! Even the Dr Mercola website is coy, (it is more reluctant today to question the conventional medical establishment than it was a few years ago) saying that "the mysterious disease is reminiscent of polio and primarily affects children, causing sometime permanent paralysis".

There is considerable doubt about the success of the polio vaccine in the 1950's. This Health Impact News website covers much of this, although unsurprisingly this evidence is hotly contested by the conventional medical establishment. It is not my intention to enter this historical argument here, only to raise the question about AFM, and whether this is another example of a cover-up of an serious illness that is assumed to have been controlled by pharmaceutical vaccines.

This article outlines how doctors change the name of diseases when vaccines claims cannot be evidenced.

               "Doctors around the world are being faced with children catching the diseases they have been vaccinated against. Rather than diagnosing these children correctly, professionals have discovered that the doctors are giving the diseases new names. This suggests a cover-up is going on and the vaccinations we are all being told are safe and effective are in fact completely useless.


                "...... many professionals now believe that the vaccinations are actually causing the diseases they are supposed to prevent.It appears that they could be right because news has just been released that 47,500 children became paralyzed after polio vaccinations in India in 2011 (my emphasis). According to Dr Jacob ..... after receiving the polio vaccination, an additional 47,500 children were newly paralyzed, over and above the standard rate of 2 children per 100,000 non-polio AFP (acute flaccid paralysis) cases."

So another cover-up certainly appears to be in operation. CNN (November 2018) ran the story that many parents are accusing the CDC of failing to report their children's death from AFM. The CDC is an integral part of the conventional medical establishment, and in the article is accused of downplaying the severity of AFM, an accusation the CDC does not appear to challenge. The articles says that although 37 USA states have confirmed or possible cases of AFM, 90 cases in 2018 alone, the CDC does not mention that there has been any deaths from the illness. Perhaps the only encouraging thing about this censorship is that it is encouraging to see that a mainstream USA news agency has reported on the issue.

So this has all the classic signs of a medical cover up.
  • An illness that has no known cause. 
  • An illness that has similar (identical) symptoms to another illness that has supposed to be overcome by conventional medicine. 
  • And an unwillingness to report issues of public concern to the public - unless forced to do so.
I have a horrible feeling that this is not the last we are going to hear about Acute Flaccid Myelitis!
