Vaccine Auto-immune Connection

Nearly identical amino acid sequences are observed between autoimmune disease epitopes and the biological material in which vaccines have been cultured. What are the odds?

An interesting and important study here https://pdmj.org/papers/epitope_analysis examines over 23,000 epitopes from the database of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).  These epitopes are amino-acid sequences associated with 82 autoimmune diseases.  Vinu Arumugham's study compares those sequences with the amino acid sequences identified in common vaccine culture media.  Such culture media as animal, plant and fungal proteins have been used over decades to produce vaccines.  Those proteins have ended up in the final manufactured injected liquid as part of the vaccine dose, and therefore arrive with antigenic potential to the blood of the vaccinated person.   The FDA acknowledges fetal calf/bovine serum in some vaccines here:  https://www.fda.gov/vaccines-blood-biologics/safety-availability-biologics/common-ingredients-us-licensed-vaccines

Let’s screenshot that, to make the future disappearance of this page a little harder:

Advocates of vaccination have steadfastly insisted that sharp rises in both vaccination uptake and autoimmune diseases over recent decades must be simply correlation, without causation, perhaps just another chapter in the growing volumes of surprising first-intervention-then-disease correlations, which are now often nicknamed by skeptical scientists as “coincidencitis.” 

Let’s review first the pertinent data.  The following paper shows incidence of rare or unobserved autoimmune diseases growing tremendously in only a half century in the United States, even after DDT was discontinued and gasoline became unleaded, and much smokestack industrial emissions had long earlier moved to developing countries. Hmm, what common pollutants remained as at high or higher level than in the peak industrial era of the US?  Let’s explore this question below.

Vaccine advocates have argued that these autoimmune diseases were always common, but previous generations of physicians must have been unable to observe them. Vaccine advocates have previously argued that the relentless head-banging, lack of eye contact, lack of speech and drooling of a severely suffering autistic child or adult would have escaped the notice of physicians of the past, but must surely have been common, as it is today.  As for the recent enormous increase in autoimmune diseases, the pro-vaccine position argument goes, surely Hippocrates could not have spotted an asthmatic attack.  Nor Maimonides.  Nor Paracelsus.  According to the pro-vaccine narrative, none of the great medical minds of previous ages, let alone their lesser-known medical contemporaries, could have noticed the patient’s desperate breathing during an asthmatic attack or could have diagnosed the intestinal bleeding in Crohn’s Disease, the painful muscle spasms of multiple sclerosis, or any of the other autoimmune diseases never observed in humanity during the pre-vaccination era. The doctors were simply too obtuse to see any of that, so the story goes.

Here is global uptake over an overlapping period of time of the following vaccines.

 Global vaccine coverage by vaccine.   N Galles, P Liu, et al.  Measuring routine childhood vaccination coverage in 204 countries and territories, 1980-2019: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2020, Release 1.  The Lancet.  Jul 2021. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736%2821%2900984-3/fulltext#%20

Both vaccine uptake and autoimmune disease incidence are seen to increase steadily from 1980 to 2000 in the above graphs.  This common trend in both graphs might be mere coincidence, except that Arumugham found such near identity in amino acid sequences between autoimmune disease epitopes and commonly used vaccine culture media proteins that a causal connection is not only plausible but very likely.

Under ideal conditions, proteins optimally arrive to the body by way of the GI tract, where they are properly broken down into amino acids before being carried into the blood.  However, protein-laden vaccines, injected directly into intramuscular tissue, arrive to the blood, unfiltered by the elaborate and multi-layered (and I would argue necessary) physical and chemical filtration structures in the GI tract.  Vaccine ingredients then arrive in such an unnatural, even counter-natural way, and deposit manufacturing residues of animal, plant or fungal antigens, in which the vaccine was cultured, into the circulation.  Now the body resists and battles against this Trojan Horse assault to the blood.  So the vaccinated person develops antibodies to counteract those proteins.  Thus, a new allergy or full-blown autoimmune condition is initiated. 

Then zooming out from the vaccinated individual’s blood to a society-wide historical view, both of the above-mentioned variables, vaccine uptake and autoimmune disease incidence, sharply increased following the huge increase in types of vaccines and vaccine doses since the 1980's.  For some autoimmune diseases, the increase was exponential, as seen in the above graphs.

Various mechanisms have been proposed for each auto-immune disease, but Arumugham's analysis shows such an infinitesimally low probability of chance occurrence of the near identity of the protein contaminants in vaccines with auto-immune epitopes that causality cannot be dismissed plausibly or casually.  The Arumugham paper uses a novel approach to examine the issue of a causative role of vaccines in auto-immune etiology.
