Polio Became an Epidemic Disease Because Sanitation Improved. Not Despite It. Before modern plumbing, nearly every infant encountered poliovirus in the first months of life — while still carrying maternal antibodies. Exposure was near-universal and paralysis was rare. Clean water broke that cycle, pushing first exposure into later childhood...

Polio Was Grossly Overdiagnosed. And Even at Its Peak, It Never Reached Epidemic Scale. Of 1,200 children hospitalized with polio, diagnostic testing later confirmed only a quarter actually had it. At the height of the outbreak in the mid-1950s, the number of children paralyzed or killed by polio was far smaller than the number of children with profound autism today. We declared a national emergency, built an entire public health infrastructure, and mandated a vaccine — for a disease that was never an epidemic. That context matters when we talk about what we're willing to mandate next.

🚨Absolutely unbelievable. In Jefferey Jaxen Investigates: Polio — The Founding Myth of Modern Medicine, the timeline reveals a striking overlap that no one talks about. In New England, an invasive gypsy moth was devastating forests in the early 1890s. Desperate to stop it, scientists introduced a brand-new pesticide in 1892: lead arsenate. It was a powerful, sticky compound made of lead and arsenic that couldn’t be washed off. It was sprayed everywhere. On trees. On fruit. On the food children ate. There was zero concern for toxicity. Then the pattern begins: ➡️1893 – Boston: 26 cases of paralysis appear, something never seen before ➡️1894 – Rutland: the first recorded “polio epidemic” 126 cases — not just children, but horses and chickens too And that’s the problem. Polio does not paralyze animals. But toxic exposure can. Seizures. Convulsions. Sudden paralysis across species. These are not hallmark signs of a viral polio infection. They are hallmark signs of pesticide poisoning. So the question everyone should have been (and should BE) asking is: Why did paralysis emerge the same year, in the same location, and the same region where a highly toxic pesticide was first deployed on a massive scale? ▶️ Watch Jefferey Jaxen Investigates: Polio — The Founding Myth of Modern Medicine, Part I at And continue the story with Part II, available with a HighWire+ subscription:

We are doing a recap of some of last Thursday's show today. We showed you Part I of "Jefferey Jaxen Investigates: Polio — The Founding Myth of Modern Medicine" In it, a startling historical record is revisited. Public health officials tested isolated communities (including Indigenous tribes in the Philippines and South America) for polio. The results shocked even Albert Sabin, creator of the oral polio vaccine. 59 out of 60 people tested positive for all three strains of wild polio virus. And yet…No paralysis. No crippling disease. No outbreaks. No one even knew what “polio” was. Entire communities carried the virus without illness suggesting polio functioned as a normal commensal virus of the human intestine, not the universally devastating disease history later portrayed. This raises a profound question: If widespread infection existed without disease, what really caused the polio epidemics we were told justified everything that followed? ▶️ Watch Part I now: And continue the investigation in Part II, available with a HighWire+ subscription: 👉

The Vaccine Sequence Was Finalized in January 2020. Two Days After the Genome Was Published. China released the SARS-CoV-2 genome on January 11. By January 13, NIAID and Moderna had locked the mRNA-1273 sequence — before most Americans had heard the word coronavirus, before the first U.S. death, two months before the national emergency. Human dosing began three days after that emergency was declared. That speed is either the strongest argument for the platform or the strongest argument for scrutinizing how the decisions got made. It can't be invoked as proof of the first while the second goes unexamined. Courtesy of GMI TV, AMI365 Conference 2026 #MedicalFreedom

Nurses Gave Remdesivir a Nickname: "Run, Death is Near." That Was the Government's Chosen COVID Treatment. Nurses who administered it testified that it killed nearly every patient they gave it to. Ventilators destroyed lungs. And the combination of the two — remdesivir and mechanical ventilation — became the standard of care in hospitals across the country while physicians offering early outpatient treatment were silenced, censored, and stripped of hospital privileges. People who died of COVID largely died because they received no treatment at home and wrong treatment in the hospital. That is not an accident. That is a policy.

Joe Rogan and Dr. Robert Malone just had a conversation that shatters decades of vaccine myths. “Once you get it about vaccines, then you see it everywhere.” Rogan referenced Dr. Suzanne Humphries’ book, and he was shocked to learn that paralytic polio curiously vanished when DDT spraying was phased out. “When people are so concerned about polio and polio vaccines… I ask them, ‘What percentage of polio do you think is asymptomatic?’ And most people think none, right? It’s 95 to 99% of polio [cases] are asymptomatic,” Rogan revealed. “And then you find out through Suzanne Humphries’s work that they were spraying DDT ubiquitously all over the country at the same time.” “Absolutely,” Dr. Robert Malone confirmed. “[DDT] gives you the same EXACT symptoms of paralytic polio,” Rogan added. Dr. Malone said that before COVID, he never questioned the vaccine story the industry told. But after a conversation with a popular podcaster, he realized that improvements in water sanitation, the removal of lead from the environment, and other factors were dramatically cutting rates of infectious disease “BEFORE the vaccines come up.” Engineers, not vaccinologists, are the real heroes of the infectious disease story. But vaccines swooped in, took the credit — and that’s been the story ever since.

The COVID era cracked something open. For the first time in generations, people started questioning the sacred cows of modern medicine. They realized that the promises stopped matching reality. And now, the polio vaccine is back on the table. Here’s what rarely gets said out loud: According to the CDC, 99% of people who contract polio never have symptoms. The most common experience? A mild, flu-like illness. Last year, on a planet of 8 billion people, the number of deaths from polio? Zero. Cases of true paralytic polio worldwide? Around 500, and nearly half recovered. But here’s the part that should make everyone pause: Of the paralytic cases reported in recent years, the overwhelming majority were vaccine-derived. They were caused by the live strain in the vaccine itself. So we have to ask the question no one is supposed to ask: Is the success of the polio vaccine the greatest myth in modern medicine? This isn’t heresy. And it’s long overdue for an honest reckoning. 🎥 Jefferey Jaxen Investigates: Polio: The Founding Myth of Modern Medicine Part One will stream tomorrow at Watch it. Then decide for yourself.

Barbara O’Neill: “It Wasn’t Vaccines That Ended Infectious Disease — It Was Sanitation, Nutrition, and Clean Water” In a striking reminder of forgotten medical history, Barbara O’Neill points out that the sharp decline in infectious diseases began long before mass vaccination campaigns. She highlights data once published in medical journals showing that diseases like measles and diphtheria had plummeted — in some cases nearly disappeared — before vaccines were introduced. According to O’Neill, the real revolution came from pioneers such as Florence Nightingale, who focused on hygiene, sanitation, and nutrition. In the early 20th century, London’s sewage flowed directly into the Thames — the same river its citizens drank from. Children played in open waste, and infections thrived. When sewage systems were built and clean water became accessible, the diseases vanished. O’Neill argues that even in unvaccinated populations today, we simply don’t see those epidemics anymore — not because of injections, but because we’re no longer drinking or living in filth. As she puts it, once clean water and proper nutrition entered the picture, the “plagues of the past” faded into history.

"Are you saying that was done on purpose?" "Absolutely. That's why it's conspiracy." GSK3 is an enzyme. When it runs unchecked, it drives chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is the engine behind virtually every chronic disease plaguing modern humanity. Lithium is the natural inhibitor of GSK3. It is how the body keeps that enzyme in check. And we have been systematically depleted of it. When populations don't know lithium is essential, and when it disappears from the water, the soil, and the food supply, GSK3 activity goes unchecked in virtually everyone. Chronic inflammation becomes the baseline and chronic disease becomes normal. Strip lithium out of the water and out of the soil. Make sure nobody's talking about it, or that what they do know is "propaganda," GSK3 runs wild. Everybody gets sick. "Are you saying that was done on purpose?" "Absolutely. That's why it's conspiracy."

Randall Carlson reconstructs the hydrology of the North American meltdown in terms that make the scale of the event viscerally clear. Throughout the Ice Age, seasonal melting was already producing water volumes far exceeding anything in the modern Mississippi system. When the great meltdown began in earnest, that volume multiplied dramatically. The Mississippi was not acting alone. The Minnesota River, the Ohio River, and the Missouri River were all simultaneously carrying massively augmented meltwater flows - glacial outbursts and seasonal discharge on a scale that has no modern equivalent - and feeding all of it into the Mississippi. The river was moving an enormous sediment load southward under that volume of water, and when it reached the Gulf of Mexico it encountered a standing body of water. The energy that had been carrying sediment in suspension suddenly dissipated, and the sediment dropped. The delta began to build. What the diverse environmental indicators preserved in that sediment record show is the speed of what followed. Earth's climate did not gradually drift toward modern conditions over tens of thousands of years. Randall cites evidence suggesting the transition from Ice Age conditions to something approximating the modern climate occurred in less than a millennium - a geological instant that compressed an enormous climatic shift into a timeframe that human populations alive at the time would have experienced within a handful of generations.

Etienne Manteaux, the public prosecutor of Grenoble, confirms a child was among those injured, and says criminals in the city are becoming more brazen. "It was not a classic offensive grenade but more an act of intimidation, although still obviously serious. "What is particularly worrying, and shows an escalation in criminals’ lack of inhibition and their desire to publicize their actions, is that the second individual was filming the first, and the footage is already circulating on social media."

Sanitation and nutrition played a large part in the elimination of diseases in the late 1800’s - early 1900’s. Many people today don’t realise such things as homes having electricity and refrigerators, having flushable toilets, clean water, rubbish removal services, and access to good food, and homes with seperate rooms and bedrooms isn’t something our previous generations had access to. As living conditions improved, disease and death to disease went down. But now these generations are no longer with us, we only hear the story of how it was a medical procedure that stopped disease. Investigate and you will see deaths rates were almost at zero before the medical procedures came out. Also investigate the world and you will soon seen that disease still thrives in parts of the world where nutrition and sanitation are still very much lacking.

“Cruel Summer” was released in 1983 as a standalone single by Bananarama and was later included on the American edition of the group’s 1984 self-titled album. Inspired by a rare heatwave in London, the song captured the frustration and restlessness of a sweltering city summer, while its video was filmed in New York during another bout of intense heat. The single reached #8 in the UK, but it was its inclusion in The Karate Kid (1984) that gave it major exposure in the United States, where it reached #9 on Billboard Hot 100 and became Bananarama’s first American Top 10 hit.

Andrew Wakefield: We Should Be Concerned About Measles. Measles Is Not the Same Disease as It Was Before Vaccination. A study from a blood transfusion unit in Boca Raton evaluating measles virus antibody titers revealed an alarming 3-fold decline over the 59 years following mass vaccination, while donors exposed to natural measles maintained excellent levels of neutralizing antibodies. “Because of being vaccinated, and not receiving the live virus itself, they were no longer protected,” Wakefield explains. “This is really alarming. These ostensibly healthy individuals had no neutralizing antibody to measles virus.” “This is an escape mutant ... It’s the vaccine that got us into this problem in the first place, and it will not get us out of it … it’s a very, very concerning situation.”

Psychiatry manufactured an epidemic of patients and sold it as medicine. Thomas Szasz spent his career proving we have an epidemic of psychiatry, not mental illness, because behavior control was never science or medicine. In 1961, he published The Myth of Mental Illness and showed that mental illness is a metaphor, not a literal disease like a broken bone or infection. For decades, the field explained depression as a chemical imbalance that pills could fix, and Szasz called the whole story a myth. But a 2022 review led by psychiatrist Joanna Moncrieff found no consistent evidence for the specific serotonin theory behind it. Szasz summed up his life’s work by naming what was happening: the psychiatrization of the whole culture. And it is still expanding, one diagnosis at a time.

Smoke, Mirrors and the “Disappearance” of Polio. A presentation by Suzanne Humphries, MD. As a nephrologist, Suzanne was treating patients and noticed several had kidney failure seemingly out of no where. They all had one thing in common, they were recently vaccinated with the flu vaccine. When she brought her concerns to her colleagues she was dismissed but she knew something was wrong and decided to look into it herself. This sent her on a journey to find out the truth about what was going on. She searched historical records, much that has been buried and she was shocked by what she discovered about the history of vaccines and infectious disease. This presentation focuses on polio but her book Dissolving Illusions outlines a hidden history of disease, an alternative to what we have all been told over and over again. That vaccines saved the modern world of the scourge of disease, a convenient story governments, scientists and pharmaceuticals love to tell in order to maintain their monopoly on the “truth” i.e. profit. Well if you haven’t figured it out yet, governments, scientists, and pharmaceuticals companies, as much as they want you to believe it, are not paragons of beneficence. In most cases, they are the source of human misery and an close examination of history proves this and that is exactly what Suzanne has done.
