The Story of “The Little Feebles Vaccine That Could”

by Dan Schultz, DC

This is the story of the Feebles Disease and the Little Feebles Vaccine.  It’s an unlikely story, but one you’re probably heard before -- if you had the ears to hear it.

Once upon a time there was a neverland ruled by a Big Bad Pharma Giant.  This heartless, insatiable Pharma Giant wanted nothing more than to own all the gold in the land, so the sent the Little Feebles Vaccine out to get it. Let’s see if the extraordinary cast of characters can help the Little Feebles Vaccine work its way through the neverland maze of obstacles to get to the pot of gold on the other side!

The Little Feebles Vaccine was sad, because he didn’t have a purpose in life.  The Feebles Disease was very rare, had been on the decline on it’s own for many years, and didn’t do much harm anyway.  The Feebles Disease wasn’t much of an arch-enemy, as it could even be good for you! 

But Big Pharma was a clever giant and worked up a scheme. And he knew that a steady decline of a Disease was the perfect time for Little Vaccines to rescue the Ignorant Townspeople and his best chance to snatch up the gleaming, sought-after pots of gold.  The Giant’s statisticians, psychologists and writers knew just what to say in their press releases and the Obliging Senationalizing Media was happy to print them, word for word: 
”Feebles Disease Running Rampant In Certain Areas Of Neverland; Epidemics May Follow.”
”People Suffered Horribly, Lose Time From Work Because Of Devastating Feebles Disease.”
“Purchased Government Officials Say Feebles Disease Could Mutate And Kill Over 2.8 Billion People.”
“Come get a Feebles Vaccine: It’s FREE, And It Could Save Your Life.”

The Ignorant Townspeople were scared.  Now the Little Feebles Vaccine could begin his big adventure, because people stop thinking when they’re scared.   

Soon, the Little Feebles Vaccine journeyed throughout neverland.  Surprisingly (for a little fellow), he hurt many of the Ignorant Townspeople.  The people were angry.  But the Pharma Giant and his minions went on repeating that the Little Feebles Vaccine could not possibly hurt anyone, because he was good.  They knew that if you keep repeating something, most people will start to repeat it, too.  Besides, the Ignorant Townspeople were too busy to investigate the cause of the suffering for themselves. It was easier just to blindly trust someone and to follow the rest of the Ignorant Townspeople.  Whew!  That feels better.

Still, many people were complaining about serious conditions that the Little Feebles Vaccine had caused on his adventure – and they were suing the Big Pharma Giant, who was losing many pots of gold.  Oh, no!  But because the Giant had lots of gold left, and gave some to some Purchased Government Officials who fixed it so that none of the Ignorant Townspeople could ever sue the Giant again. That’s a relief!

But too many of people throughout the land still weren’t accepting the Little Feebles Vaccine.  The Giant was angry.  Not nearly enough gold was being collected -- never enough.  What to do?   Then the Giant got to thinking some more.  What if the Purchased Government Officials forced the people to accept the Little Feebles Vaccine?  He thought that it was crazy enough that it just might work. And it did!

Now, the Big, Bad Pharma Giant could send out more Little Vaccines into the world, even against diseases that the Little Vaccines had caused!  It was marketing genius. 

So the Big, Bad Pharma Giant, the Little Feebles Vaccine and their impressive cast of supporters lived happily ever after…. That is, until the sequel comes out.  It’ll written by Truth and Justice. It’s sure to be a best seller because Truth, it has a certain ring to it and Justice, she always prevails -- coming out soon.

Disease, Comfort, and Convenience

by Dan Schultz, DC

People come to me essentially expressing concerns that symptoms have become unbearably uncomfortable and inconvenient.  The average person will tolerate unbelievable amounts of the body’s distress signals. After weeks, months, or years of suffering and drugging themselves into other disease processes, they come to me, mostly, as a last resort.

What’s seems odd to me is that there is often no regard whatsoever for their health and only a distant worry about accumulating permanent damage -– only the short-sighted desire to be symptom-free.  The fact is that the average American hasn’t any tangible idea of what health really is, nor do they have the time or inclination to consider it in the busy, overwhelming lives they have chosen.  It is unfortunate and it is true. Ours has become a culture of convenience and comfort.

Examples of this are varied and plentiful.  Pain, muscle spasm, inflammation, and fevers are well known to be an integral and necessary part of the reparative, healing process, but they are fearfully avoided like the proverbial plague.  For example, instead of actually restoring a healthy cardiovascular system, people take a pill to lower their blood pressure when they know perfectly well that they could lower it naturally making better lifestyle choices. But that might be uncomfortable. And the pill is so convenient.

In the same way, the entity of disease is a good and necessary cog in Mother Nature’s natural machine.  Scientists know full well the benefits of disease in priming and maturing the human immune system.  Immunity is learned by an intelligent system and it was designed by Nature or God or Evolution to do so with all of the symptoms and conditions that we pejoratively label “disease.” Vaccination is merely an attempt to cheat the body of this process in the name of comfort and convenience. 

Even death from disease has an undeniable benefit to humanity, although it may be unfashionable to say it.  I’m saying it.  In the same way that we now understand that forest fires are necessary to sustain healthy forests, we must also accept that disease is nature’s means to pare away the genetically susceptible with disease.  Microbes maintain a healthy gene pool for humans just as wolves pick off sickly moose and leave the herd with strong survival qualities.  There is no other way. 

Diseases, like the symptoms of joint pain, are there for a reason and are not meant to be “eradicated.”  This is a larger perspective of what happens, microscopically, within us.  Microbes are always there, but only begin replicating (and creating symptoms) when we lack life-force; they eat up dead or dying cells when true health or vitality is diminished.

Mankind tends to be extremely arrogant in dismissing this truth. I’ve heard it said, “if our vaccine can just save one human life, it’s worth poisoning entire generations.”  They didn’t use those words exactly or emphasize the deaths and mass-scale suffering caused by their artificial, invasive experiments -- but that’s what they say. 

Our culture is most definitely one of comfort and convenience. Vaccination is merely one example.  Just as mankind has created nuclear and biological weapons, vaccinationists have unwisely asked "can we?" before we have asked "should we?" 

Vaccination is man’s futile attempt to avoid the unpleasant processes of life at any cost. It is our foolish effort to dominate nature in yet another way.  It highlights the feeble idea of regarding educated intelligence over innate intelligence.  It is, in the end, stupidity.
