From the May 2002 Idaho Observer:
Vasculomyelinopathy: A disease caused by vaccines named in 1979
by Vaccination Liberation
The Annals of Neurology (April, 1980) published a report by Louis Reik.
The introduction of foreign antigen by infection or inoculation [can] cause
vascular injury with secondary damage to myelin, Reik observed.
The term vascular refers to blood vessels and myelin is the protective
substance that coats components of the central nervous system.
Calling post-antigentic complications serum sickness, Reik wrote that,
Clinically, serum sickness in humans begins seven to ten days after the
injection of foreign protein, with fever, malaise, urticaria [hives], joint
pains, lymphadenopathy [lymphatic disorder]and immune complex nephritis
[kidney inflamation].
What Reik found in 1979 is consistent with other reports that have been
published long before Americans became subjected to such an intensive
regimen of vaccines. Reik's findings are also consistent with what we are
seeing more and more commonly among vaccinated populations.
We are currently experiencing epidemic numbers of post-vaccinal children
who exhibit symptoms that arise from encephalopathy (swelling of the brain)
and demyelinization. Drastic increases in sudden infant deaths and the
meteoric rise in cases of autism have been proven recently to be associated
with the introduction of vaccines (Drs. Andrew Wakefield, Vijendra Singh and
Viera Scheibner).
Reik described how the severity of lesions observed on the delicate
venules and capilaries in the brain depend, ....on the amount of
antigen-antibody interaction. The tissue response is apparently independent
of the antigen response since a wide variety of serum proteins produce the
same lesions. The amount of antibody formed is the key to subsequent
development of immune-complex disease...
Reik identified a disease in 1979 that is caused by the introduction of
antigens -- either naturally or via inoculation. His work was supported by
that of published predecessors and is currently supported by science that
has been published since 1980. The relationship between vaccines and brain
damage or central nervous system dysfunction has also been supported in the
lives of millions who have been destroyed as a result of this common
practice.
