Iran: Mahyar Tousi, a recent refugee from the U.K. now broadcasting from a Tousi.TV studio in Florida, is an essential source of information and insight.

What Is Not Broken — title of a book I’d like to see

Key question: Why is X not broken? Example:

Why is Interstate-70 open through Glenwood Canyon?

The Glenwood Recovery Series, Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT)

Some say “Government produces nothing.” Watch and see what you think.

The above example happens to be about a government provided service, but this question applies to everything.

Take any simple thing you depend on without giving it thought, and ask “Why is this not broken?” Trace the chain of things that must happen if that thing is to keep working. When I do this, the astonishment never ends.

A note to readers of this draft

I’ve decided to put diverse things in this draft, as fuel for discussion, but to remove most of it before publishing at the end of each month.

Had I titled this book it would have properly honored Armand, by using the word Comrade rather than Mistress. Her intelligence, vision, ability to inspire and organize, and artistic sensibility were all of high order. She was perhaps the most powerful woman in revolutionary Russia. “Mistress” might sell books but it fails in every other way.

The vaccine industry has largely escaped scrutiny because of the belief that “vaccines are safe and effective”—a slogan that treats every vaccine as an identical good and discourages any examination of how vaccines are actually made or how sharply their individual risks and benefits differ.

Here I will review the foundational principles of vaccine design and the clinical implications that I believe are essential for understanding why these products so often fail to live up to their promises and have major safety issues.

Building upon this, I will show how the actual risks and benefits of a vaccine can be calculated (something medicine almost never computes) and why many commonly administered ones rest on very shaky ground that makes it hard to ever justify giving them to anyone.

I will also review numerous core principles of immunology that virtually never enter the vaccine discussion and help to explain why vaccines cause so many different immunological issues.

With this framework, I will provide a guide to assist you in determining the risks and benefit of each vaccine on the CDC schedule and tools for identifying the most toxic and unnecessary ones.

Medicine’s religious focus on vaccines has covered up the fact many safe natural alternatives to vaccines exist which can prevent a variety of complex illnesses. Likewise, much in the same way a few vaccines have been used to treat challenging chronic conditions (e.g., cancer, diabetes, shingles, fibromyalgia), forgotten natural therapies have been as well that both eliminate chronic debilitating illnesses, and provide completely safe methods to make populations immune to problematic infectious diseases.
