the sorts of things that they would need to manage many, many different medical emergencies. We've realized, I think, during the pandemic, at least I did, that people are a lot smarter than we give them credit for. And if you give them things like antibiotics and antivirals and medications to treat burns and nausea and vomiting and those sorts of things, they won't just take them willy-nilly.
They actually... But in order for them to be useful, they really have to have them in their possession before the crisis occurs. I know that we've got a new pediatric kit, the children's kit, you know, which includes a lot of different things that you probably use on a regular basis. But I'm very proud of these kits that we've made available.
I agree with you. I agree. Right before the break, we were talking about the fact that we were misled, misguided, indoctrinated, lied to, whatever you want to say, during our extensive medical training. I think this is largely a result of the...
influence of big pharma and the tremendous amount of money that they wield in certainly in Washington, the fact that they control so much of the advertising dollars. The United States is one of only two countries in the world that allows pharmaceutical advertising on television, New Zealand being the other. the amount of influence that they have, and therefore they influence what we were taught.
So great segue into measles. Everybody knows, hopefully, that the new crisis du jour now is the measles outbreak. We've had several. But I certainly was taught, and I can't assume you were as well, that the decrease in measles deaths and measles as a disease burden was the result of vaccines, of kids getting the MMR vaccine. And that's why, you know, measles isn't an issue anymore.
And it's now the problem that people aren't getting vaccinated. And that's why we have this outbreak. So talk a little bit about that, the truth versus fiction.
Precisely. So just to recap, what you said is precisely correct. And this is not your opinion or my opinion. This is the data that appears on the CDC website. The reality is... From 1900 to 1960, the death rate from measles dropped by 98%. It was so low. Three years, and that was three years prior to the availability of the measles vaccine, which as you said, rolled out in 1963.
So it did drop by 98%. Why? Because of better nutrition, better sanitation, clean water, better living conditions, all of the things that happened between 1900 and 1960. Prior, by the way, in the years prior to 1960, we had somewhere in the range of 400 to 500 deaths a year from measles.
you know, tragic, but not anywhere near the number of deaths we have on an annual basis from say influenza or tuberculosis or in the rest of the world, you know, diarrheal diseases, those sorts of things. So it wasn't exactly a huge problem prior to 1960, but it had already dropped by 98% by the time the vaccine was rolled out.
uh so now here we are we had not had uh we've got a quote outbreak right now we've had uh four outbreaks so far this year in the united states an outbreak is defined as more than three cases that are associated and we've had a couple of measles deaths um that have been reported uh but you and i both know we don't have an off there's an awful lot we don't know
about those measles cases, including the one child who died in Texas. Talk a little bit about that, what you know, I'll fill in any parts that I know about that death and whether or not you think it's significant.
No, I agree. And I agree with you. And by the way, I don't think either of us are, quote, anti-vaccine. I certainly, prior to COVID, was considered to be a vaccine zealot. I had written prolifically on the importance of vaccination programs. I certainly believe very differently now based on the actual data and what we know. When I was growing up in the 60s,
You got between birth and age 18, depending on what state you lived in, you got anywhere between six and eight vaccines in that 18 year period. That number is now up to 78. And that does not include the six recommended COVID shots. So that would bring it to 84. So, you know, I am not an immunologist. You are.
But I can certainly say as a physician that the human immune system was not meant to be flogged continually with immune challenge after immune challenge after immune challenge with these vaccines. And that's what we are doing.
And I believe that it is being reflected in the disease processes that we are seeing, not only autism, but the massive increase in asthma and allergies, you know, eczema, psoriasis, all these autoimmune diseases.
I think are likely related in one way or another to the fact that we are over vaccinating and we have been led to believe that we can vaccinate our way to good health as opposed to all of the other things that you and I have been talking about. What I was referencing with regard to this child who died in Texas is that we don't even know that that child died of measles.
The child tested positive for measles, but it is unclear. It's my understanding that the child was admitted with RSV and was actually given the MMR, the measles vaccine immediately. in the hospital when the child came in ill with RSV and pneumonia.
Talk a little bit, kind of in as much lay terms as you can, what the MMR is and why that might have caused the child to either test positive for measles or to actually contract measles.
Well, first of all, I think what you're saying is spot on because you're putting it in perspective. Again, I agree. Any death is a tragedy, and my heart goes out to the parents of that child.
But we have to put in perspective as physicians, if you put your public health hat on, we have the reality of the disease burden is that every year, in a particularly bad influenza year, which we've had many of them, 1957, 2002, 69, 2003, 2009, 2018, and this is a particularly brisk year this year, we can have as many as 30 to 50,000 deaths from influenza in the United States.
