Just my confession of reading it may land me in the cohort with anti-vaxxers.
I confess I am one of the unvaxxed when it comes to Covid.
I confess I am one of the unvaxxed when it comes to Covid.
I'm unvaxxed when it comes to other vaccines too.
The possible risks, for me, outweigh the possible benefits of any vaccine on the market.
Am I an anti-vaxxer?
After all, I chose to not vaccinate my children who are now 31 and 33.
After all, I chose to not vaccinate my children who are now 31 and 33.
I made that choice partly because of my own health issues when they were born and growing up: asthma, sinusitis, systemic candida, hives, an overresponsive & depleted immune system.
If they inherited any of my auto-immune tendencies, I wanted to do all I could so that the buck stops here.

I didn't trust the vaccines; at that time vaccines contained thimerosal, a mercury offspring which is considered safe.
I didn't allow our children to get amalgam fillings, which also contain a type of mercury considered safe.
I breast fed and allowed the kids, for the most part, to self-ween.
My daughter at 2-1/2 years old; my son at 2 years old.
I didn't give them pharmaceutical antibiotics even though they had ear infections as toddlers.

My son had his first antibiotic after some oral surgery when he was around 8 years old and then again when he was around 14 years old after he ran into a barb-wired fence on a 4-wheeler.
My daughter had her first antibiotic around 19 years old when she got a bad case of bronchitis.
Where am I going with all this?
Ahh...Kennedy's book.
As I read the Introduction and first chapter, as my manner is, I wrote some thoughts in the margins.

Could this corruption really be?
I thought of The Way and the corruption that I didn't see while in The Way.
I thought of my ex-mental health therapist and his outright lies and character assassination of me.
I thought of my own encounters with the medical industry and my own medically-induced illnesses from mercury leaching from dental amalgams to cobalt and chromium leaching from my defective hip implant.
I had a hard time wrapping my head around the malicious intentional deception, especially of The Way and my ex-therapist.
I still have a hard time wrapping my head around malicious intentional deception.
But I am no longer naive.
I thought of the contaminated albuterol and when I called the pharmaceutical company and asked, "Can pseudomonas cause pneumonia?"
The answer was a definite, "No."
Either the woman outright lied or was misinformed.
This was before the days of internet.
I thought of the "DDT is Good for Me" campaign, and Rachel Carson.
I thought of the tobacco industry.
I thought of the tobacco industry.
I thought of super-bugs and antibiotic resistance due to overuse.
I thought of "follow the money trail;" lots of money in big pharma.
I don't necessarily believe in an organized evil cabal that is trying to rule the world.
To organize such a takeover would be a feat.
But evil cabals have exacted their horror multiple times in pockets and swaths across the globe throughout its history.

I believe that nefarious political, business, medical, cultural movement leaders have always existed, and that includes now.
Corruption, especially of the powerful, is not a new phenomenon.
And that context, an exposé of the evil system (so to speak), is not my main interest in this book.
I'm interested to learn the other side of the Covid story.
And this book has much of that story in one place, instead of having to search and ferret out articles online, which I have also done.
Kennedy has source notes, so I can look up where he got his information.
Kennedy is considered one of the so-called "Disinformation Dirty Dozen."
