Tetanus: the disease versus the vaccine

By Ingri Cassel (Reprinted from the Fall/Winter 2001 VacLib Letter)

Walene James, the founder of Vaccination Liberation and author of Immunization: The Reality Behind
the Myth, has received several inquiries regarding the tetanus vaccine. Most of these calls are
from concern of developing tetanus due to refusing the vaccine. After all, this is what they have
been told all of their lives: tetanus is a very serious illness that will likely result from a
deep puncture wound, the disease is deadly, and the only reliable way to prevent tetanus is by
receiving an injection of the tetanus vaccine.

Tetanus is a problem of wound hygiene; not vaccination status.

In 5% to 10% of tetanus cases, no wound at all is identified.

nursing homes. It is in these places that bedridden patients develop decubitus ulcers or bedsores
that are not properly cared for. The tetanus spore thrives in an open wound that has gotten dirty
and is deprived of oxygen. There is nothing about developing tetanus and recovering that can
impart immunity to this disease. If a person is careless about wound hygiene s/he may get it again
and again regardless of his/her vaccination status.

According to the CDC, a much more reliable source of information than "Vaccination Liberation,"
tetanus occurs almost exclusively in persons who are unvaccinated or inadequately immunized.

Wound hygiene consists of cleansing the wound properly and keeping it

with hydrogen peroxide.I always stop the bleeding, once cleaned, with 60,000 H.U. or stronger
cayenne pepper. Cayenne pepper is a wonderful antiseptic and styptic (equalizes blood pressure and
stops bleeding). If the wound is severe and may require stitching or surgery, it is good to know
about comfrey root powder and basic natural healing principles.

Packing a wound with cayenne pepper, comfrey root powder, or any other foreigh substance is not
proper wound care. The best stuff to cleanse a wound is sterile 0.9% saline solution. Lacking that,
clean water is a good choice.

As with all vaccines, the tetanus vaccine used today is toxic. Leon Chaitow, author of Vaccination
and Immunization: Dangers, Delusions and Alternatives, stated that one thousandth part of a
milliliter of the broth in which the tetanus bacillus is grown, is enough to kill a guinea pig if
injected into it.

What does the "broth in which the tetanus bacillus is grown" have to do with the toxicity of
the vaccine?

Tetanus. "...This report describes severe, generalized tetanus in a 29-year old man who had
received a primary series as a child and two booster injections. Serum obtained before
administration of tetanus immune globulin showed antibody titers to tetanus greater than 100 times
the level considered protective."

Yes, you would expect to find elevated antitoxin titers in a person with tetanus.

My comments. The person had a history of amphetamine abuse...and although some drugs such as
strychnine which is commonly used in street drugs as a "cutting" agent, and others such as
haloperidol, piperazines and some antidepressants can cause muscles spasms reminiscent of tetanus,
these drugs can be identified in the urine.

What does any of that have to do with tetanus?

I have personally known only one person who had tetanus. She was 26, had also had a primary
schedule and more than one booster, though she didn't know how many. She was an alcoholic, smoked
like a train and lived on trash-food.

So she got tetanus because she had unhealthy habits? Those of us who don't drink, smoke, or eat
burgers and fries are immune? How silly.

So two months of severe illness, high colonics, starvation, and expensive supplements is better than
a tetanus shot? Not for me, thank you!

Ihope nobody dies because they actually believe your drivel. Tetanus can, and does, kill.

John must scour the earth to find material as ignorant as this. Note how a wound was "deprived of
oxygen" through the patient wearing shoes and socks, as though we get our oxygen through the skin.

It would be funny if these idiots were not a such a menace to any that are simple-minded enough to
believe them.

Probably saw Goldfinger and believed that silliness about "skin suffocation." I swear, some people
treat action/adventure movies as though they were documentaries.

There is nothing incorrect about that. There's a distinction between wounds that are relatively open
and exposed to atmospheric oxygen, and wounds that are closed and are not oxygenated (the tissues
around them might be, but not the wound itself). It makes a difference for anaerobic organisms,
which is why deep puncture wounds are especially risky for tetanus.

You made the claim "C" now prove it. I want to se the convictions, the trials, the sentencing. I
want to see the mug shots of these "murderers" you clain all MD's are.

You can't. Why? Because your claim is a lie. QED

There is nothing incorrect about that. There's a distinction between wounds that are relatively
open and exposed to atmospheric oxygen, and wounds that are closed and are not oxygenated (the
tissues around them might be, but not the wound itself).

It is true but arguable why open granulating wounds are rarely a source of tetanus, especially as
they are often typically closed off from the air with bulky dressings, and nowadays very occlusive
dressings are advised to keep the wound moist, as this now known to produce fastest healing.. Burns,
however are prone to tetanus.

The story also referred to a cut, which is not normally an open wound unless deliberate attempts are
made to keep every crevice open.
