American families lost 1,529 babies to “Sudden Infant Death Syndrome” in 2022. That’s the most recent year that we have numbers for. Meanwhile, Japan’s SIDS rate is so low that they don’t even have an exact number of how many babies were lost. Why is there such a big difference between our two countries? We think that would be a great question for HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to try to answer.
The SIDS rate in the US is around 0.4 deaths per 1,000 live births. That’s worse than any other modern country except Ireland, and shockingly higher than Japan.
The medical community in America always has a ready-made answer for these types of uncomfortable questions: It’s the parents’ fault. Usually the mother.
The establishment proclaims that the reason why we lose so many more babies than other countries is because American women are a bunch of drunks.
Well, there you go. These things just sort of happen when mothers are irresponsible like that, right?
The medical authorities pulled the same nonsense back in the 1990s when more and more children were being diagnosed with autism. They initially determined, through the use of The Science, that autism was caused by “bad mothering.”
“What did you do to your child, lady? Did you shake him when he was a baby?”
Of course, the obvious answer to these uncomfortable questions is “vaccines.”
Japan passed a mandatory infant vaccination law years ago. That was in the 1970s. They noticed a strange new phenomenon in their population when the law was passed. Babies started dying in their sleep, usually within 14 days of receiving a vaccine. The problem got worse in the 1980s when they added new vaccines to the infant schedule.
By the 1990s, it was too severe to ignore any longer. The obvious conclusion was that the vaccines were causing SIDS deaths. The Japanese government repealed the mandatory vaccination law. The vaccines are now optional, and are not recommended until a child reaches at least 2 years of age.
“Guess what happened when they did that?” asks Dr. Pierre Kory, the former Medical Director of the Trauma and Life Support Center at the University of Wisconsin.
“Infant deaths disappeared. You know, so you have a country who noticed the signal, did something about it, and actually solved the problem. Neonatal mortality decreased.”
Huh. The Japanese doctors must not have heard about that trick where you’re supposed to call the mothers “trailer trash.”
The Netherlands has the lowest rate of SIDS deaths in the European Union, although their numbers are still higher than Japan. The Netherlands has seven infant vaccines on the schedule during the first 12 months of life.
In the US, we give our newborns 14 vaccines in the first 12 months. They’re even vaccinated against a sexually transmitted disease (hepatitis B) right after they’re born in the hospital. Yet when we have more babies dying from SIDS than any other developed country, the doctors say, “Well, you know Sally is with the booze.”
The reason why we keep harping on this problem is because this is still considered the “fringe” view when it comes to vaccines in America. And that’s all about to change.
RFK, Jr. is making all the CDC’s data on childhood vaccines, autism rates, SIDS deaths, and neurological disorders public. He just announced this. Independent scientists anywhere in the world will be able to conduct retrospective and epidemiological studies and prove once and for all whether the “conspiracy theories” about infant vaccines are true or not.
This is going to send shockwaves through the medical community and the pharmaceutical industry. Be prepared for this. It’s about to get nuts. When the American people realize that the modern medical community is basically a group of witch doctors, the repercussions could be staggering for our society.
Millions of families have been harmed by the vaccines on the childhood schedule. RFK, Jr. is doing his best to brace the public for this. He sat down for an interview with Tucker Carlson which was just posted this week. It’s worth your time to watch the whole thing:
Twenty years ago, Bobby Kennedy was exiled from polite society for suggesting a link between autism and vaccines. Now he’s a cabinet secretary, and still saying it.
