What Can the Smallpox Vaccine Disaster Teach Us About Spike Protein Injuries?

When you study history, it is always striking how frequently dysfunctional cycles tend to repeat themselves — which is why many of us were able to foresee much of what came to pass with the disastrous COVID-19 vaccines.
Medicine has its fair share of erroneous beliefs (which frequently have little to no evidence supporting them). Sadly, my profession has held tightly onto them for centuries regardless of the problems those beliefs create and I believe the vaccination meme is one of the most harmful ones.
I originally was compelled to start a Substack at the start of 2022 when I realized the mass protests against the COVID-19 vaccine mandates (i.e., those in Australia and then later Canada’s trucker convoy) were a mirror of what had happened approximately 150 years ago with the smallpox vaccines.
I felt this was critical for everyone to know, both so we could learn the lessons of our forefathers who fought against similar unjustified vaccination mandates and in the hope that the current circumstances could at last allow us to break free of this cycle.
Not being sure where else to go, I reached out to Steve Kirsch and despite not knowing me, he kindly used his platform to promote both the article and unexpectedly, my own Substack. It in turn took off thanks to the kindness of many others I followed like Dr. Mercola.
At the time I wrote the Smallpox article, I had no experience or expectations of blogging, so the article had a lot of room for improvement. Since much of the madness we are seeing today began over a century ago with the smallpox vaccine, I believe that to set things straight now, it is critically important to consider what happened then and the profound damage it inflicted on the health of the human species.
The Vaccine Positive Feedback Cycle
When the smallpox vaccine created in 1796, it was met with widespread skepticism by the medical profession initially because it had almost no supporting data and then because it simply didn’t work.
Nonetheless, governments around the world rapidly adopted it because it provided a simple top down solution (something government always prefers) for smallpox and the medical profession gradually got behind it because of both the political power and money they received from the vaccinations.
Many doctors still spoke out against the vaccine, with many providing robust data to support their objections (e.g., large cohorts showed the vaccine did not prevent smallpox and erysipelas, an agonizing and sometimes fatal skin infection, was commonly observed in vaccinated individuals).
Sadly, these dissident doctors became a smaller and smaller minority and reports exist from the time of doctors in the early hospitals falsifying medical records in order to conceal the vaccine’s dangers and its ineffectiveness in preventing smallpox.
However, the largest problems with the smallpox vaccine was that vaccination tended to increase rather than decrease the occurrence of smallpox.

Note: Many other examples of increasing vaccination increasing smallpox outbreaks can be found here in the original article.
When this happened, governments tended to respond to that emergency by viewing it as a result of not enough people being vaccinated and doing what they could to increase vaccination rates. Since the working class was well aware of both the dangers of the smallpox vaccine and its ineffectiveness, harsher and harsher mandates needed to be implemented to continue meeting the vaccination quotas.
As things continued to escalate, assaults on officers enforcing vaccination occurred, and riots periodically broke out. This 1874 quote from Emeritus Professor F. W. Newman encapsulates the mood of the time:
“Decorous and admissible language fails me, in alluding to that which might have seemed incredible thirty years ago — the commanding of vaccination on a second child of a family, when vaccination has killed the first; and then sending the father to prison for refusal.”
Note: To address the widespread failures of their vaccine, the medical profession moved their goal-posts from the vaccine providing a lifelong “perfect” immunity to simply ensuring a “milder disease,” a playbook that persists to this day and (e.g., it was used for the COVID-19 vaccines).
At the same time increasingly draconian mandates were being enacted, many early activists argued that smallpox and many other infectious diseases were primarily due to the common people living in absolute squalor (it’s hard to even begin to describe just how bad their living conditions were).
After decades of work, activists were able to improve the basic living conditions of the working class (e.g., through public sanitation so people no longer slept next to infectious microbes) and a massive benefit was seen in the reduction of deaths from all infectious diseases:

Note: This chart and many others like can be viewed at dissolvingillusions.com. The authors of that book did a remarkable job unearthing the forgotten history of vaccination.
The medical profession however coopted the activist’s work and claimed the reduction in deaths was due to the introduction of vaccination, something not at all supported by the data (e.g., scarlet fever, the biggest killer of the era and now an almost entirely forgotten condition never had a vaccination developed for it).
Since this time, the belief that medicine rescued us from the dark ages of infectious illness and that all infections can be prevented with a vaccination has become one of the central mythologies the practice modern medicine is founded upon.
Note: I call all of this a positive feedback cycle because normally when something doesn’t work (e.g., in the body) a signal activates to stop it (known as negative feedback). Positive feedback systems are much rarer (as they are inherently unstable), but due to our society’s faith in vaccination, one exists here.
In response to the increasingly draconian vaccination mandates, a massive protest (attended by citizens across Europe) broke out in Leicester (England) in 1885 which resulted in Leicester’s mandatory vaccination laws being repealed and replaced with measures to both improve public sanitation and quarantine both individuals with smallpox (along with their sick contacts).
When this approach was proposed by Leicester, the medical profession attacked the citizens of Leicester, loudly proclaimed their policy would result in mass deaths and stated Leicester would serve as a lesson to the world to never to abandon vaccination. The opposite instead happen, Leicester conquered smallpox, and their methods (often done it tandem with vaccination) were then copied, allowing us to at last eliminate smallpox.
As you might have noticed, there are many, many parallels between those events from over a century ago and what we all witnessed over the last few years.

Early Schools of American Medicine
In the early 1900s, there were four main schools of medicine in the United States — Allopathy (conventional medicine), Homeopathy, Naturopathy (call the eclectic school at the time) and Osteopathy. Allopathy was losing favor because its treatments often didn’t work and were highly toxic.
At the same time, two of the richest individuals in history (Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller) realized they would need to diversify beyond their respective industries (steel and oil) after Theodore Roosevelt decided to break up their monopolies.
Allopathic medicine was identified as a promising way to make a lot of money and a variety of investments were made to cause Allopathy to go from falling out of favor to it becoming the leading form of medicine within the United States (e.g., the Flexner report, published in 1910 was used to close most of America’s competing non-allopathic medical schools).
Note: The Robber Barons, which details exactly how Rockefeller went about monopolizing the oil industry, provides an insightful perspective on what he appears to have also done with the medical industry.
Since the monopolization of American medicine, Allopathy has had the remarkable accomplishment of always costing the country more each year than it did the year before while simultaneously abjectly failing to address many of the major health issues facing our country — we spend more than the rest of the world on healthcare but our national healthcare outcomes are worse than almost all of the developed world.

Most of the non-allopathic schools of medicine at the time were strongly opposed to vaccination because of the harms they saw it create. Sadly, in order to gain acceptance within the lucrative medical industry, one by one, they wholeheartedly adopted the vaccination narrative.
For example, Bastyr, the premier Naturopathic medical school in the United States mandated the COVID-19 vaccine for its students, a move which was met with disgust by many of the more traditional Naturopathic Physicians in practice as that mandate went against everything Naturopathy had stood for.
In researching this series, I thus explored what each of those early schools of medicine had reported at the time, as their early literature was much more willing to criticize the sacred cow of vaccination. It’s worth reading through these reports twice as all of them were describing similar events that differed primarily due to the unique lens their model of medicine saw the body through.
Note: With what follows, I would have also liked to have included the Chiropractic perspective, the Ayurvedic perspective and what was seen in Japan (Japanese suffered immensely from the smallpox vaccinations). Unfortunately, I could not locate a good reference for any of these.
Homeopathy
Within Homeopathy, an idea exists known as Hering’s Law of Cure. It posits that diseases enter the body superficially, and then can either be expelled at the surface (e.g., through the skin), or travel deep into the body. When the disease stays at the surface, acute reactions such as skin eruptions and fevers occur, while when allowed to instead travel into the patient, a variety of chronic debilitating diseases are likely to occur.
Note: Many opponents of the smallpox vaccines believed it was not a good idea to introduce the vaccine directly into the bloodstream since that allowed the cowpox virus to establish itself deep within the body.
Hering’s Law hence argues that the goal of treatment should be to facilitate the outward expulsion of disease, which contrasts to the (now) prevailing school of thought which strives to suppress those symptomatic expulsions. For example, treating an unpleasant fever accompanying an illness often worsens the long term prognosis of the condition (e.g., debilitating childhood vaccine injuries are often preceded by fevers that were “treated” with Tylenol).
Unfortunately, fevers are reflexively medicated by doctors — something that was immensely problematic throughout COVID-19 because of how frequently suppressing a fever worsened the COVID-19’s prognosis.
One Homeopathic physician of the time, J. Compton Burnett, M.D., in 1884 authored “Vaccination and Its Cure by Thuja, with Remarks on Homeoprophylaxis,” which provides one of the best illustrations of Hering’s Law I have come across.
In his book, Burnet advanced the argument that the medical field had mistaken correlation with causation in the smallpox vaccination programs. The vaccine was only considered to be effective if it “took” after vaccination, meaning that a large skin eruption emerged at the site of vaccination. In turn, if the vaccinations did not “take” this argued that the vaccine needed to be re-administered, or the individual was not “vaccinated.”
Burnett and others argued that the vaccine “taking” was a sign of the individual having a strong immune system, and that if the immune system was strong enough to “take” the vaccine, it was also already strong enough to repel a smallpox infection and had no need to be vaccinated in the first place.
As he discussed the conflicting perspectives of the pro-vaccinational literature and anti-vaccinational literature (the terminology of being “anti-vaccine” is over a century old), he argued that the pre-existing immunocompetency of the vaccinated individual could explain the divergent observations in mortality by each side of the debate.
Conversely, he found that almost all cases of severe chronic illness following vaccination (termed vaccinosis) occurred in individuals who had had a smallpox vaccine that did not take, and instead moved deeper into the body creating chronic pathology. One of his strongest arguments for this was his observation that homeopathic Thuja preparations would frequently treat the conditions that he temporally correlated with vaccination.
Note: The issue Burnett and others found appears to be shared by the COVID-19 vaccines. In one recent study (discussed here), teenagers and young adults who developed post-vaccination myocarditis were compared to those who did not. It was discovered that those with myocarditis had free spike protein in the bloodstream their immune systems could not develop neutralizing antibodies to (and likely would not develop from a COVID-19 infection either).
When I learned of this, I recalled that one of the only therapies I had ever seen reported in support groups to work for COVID-19 vaccine injuries were the early monoclonal antibodies developed for combatting the original COVID-19 variants (which used the same spike protein still found in the vaccine). Unfortunately, the Biden administration pulled the monoclonal antibodies from the market so they are now almost impossible to get ahold of.
Burnett’s book begins with a description of vaccinosis, and is primary composed of noteworthy vaccinosis cases, some of which I will share.
“The diseased state, then, engendered by this vaccinial pus, by vaccination, is vaccinosis; and in it are not included any other diseases whose causes may be accidentally or incidentally contained in the vaccine pus, — such as scrofulosis, syphilis, or tuberculosis.”
Note: Many others also complained about the consequences of contaminated or improperly produced vaccines.
In my assessment, many of the chronic symptoms Burnett and other physicians reported (particularly the various “neuralgias” repeatedly mentioned) were a consequence of “blood stasis,” a Chinese medicine diagnosis I correlate with impaired zeta potential.
“Vaccinosis shews itself as formidable acute disease that may terminate fatally, or it may manifest itself as a chronic affection. The ordinary forms of vaccinia must be included under acute vaccinosis. (p. 6-7).
Chronic vaccinosis more particularly lies completely beyond the ken of ordinary medicine, and although it will sometimes turn up in literature as “Ill effects of vaccination,” it is, nevertheless, but an unrecognised waif, much to the disadvantage of suffering mankind and of medical science.
It has not [barring a few exceptions] yet been sufficiently studied to be readily defined; except causally, indeed, its very existence is not generally admitted. But a study of the following cases will afford ample evidence that its symptoms are very like the pathogenetic symptoms of Thuja Occidentalis.
Some may, perhaps, say that vaccinosis is the same as vaccinia; this is, however, not so; vaccinosis is vaccinia and something more, for if a person is vaccinated unsuccessfully he has not had vaccinia, whereas some of the worst cases of (my) vaccinosis which I have met with were just those in whom the vaccination did not ” take,” as the saying goes.
Hence, I must call attention to what I believe is a fact, that it often does take deep hold of the constitution without calling forth any local phenomena, and, not only so, but such cases may be even very severe in their internal developments manifested by the supervention of various morbid symptoms after vaccination.
Let us dwell a little on this novel assertion, I was going to say fact, yet probably very few will admit that it is a fact at all, but only a fad of mine, since every body holds that if the vaccination does not “take” the individual has remained uninfluenced by the process of putting vaccine under the cuticle.
In other words, when a person is vaccinated and does not take; is, in fact, unsuccessfully vaccinated, it is held that said person is proof against vaccination, and we certify accordingly. Everyone believes that the unsuccessfully vaccinated individual has not in any way been affected or altered by the vaccination.
Close and minute observation, however, teaches me that such is by no means necessarily the case, for not a few persons date their ill health from a so-called unsuccessful, vaccination.
My own conception of the thing is just this: — the vaccinated person is poisoned by the vaccine virus; what is called the “taking” is, in point of fact, the constitutional re-action whereby the organism frees itself more or less from the inserted virus. If the person do not “ take,” and the virus has been absorbed, the “ taking ” becomes a chronic process-paresis, neuralgia, cephalalgia, pimples and acne.
The less a person “takes,” therefore, in such a case, the more is he likely to suffer from chronic vaccinosis, i.e., from the genuine vaccination disease in its chronic form, very frequently a neuralgia or paresis.
Most practitioners will agree that neuralgia is more prevalent now than ever before within the present age, and experience has forced me to ascribe many such cases to vaccinosis.”
Burnet cited a case of 10 week old baby who had been healthy, and then suddenly became at risk of dying with cause of the baby’s illness being impossible for anyone to identify.
After investigating further, he discovered the wet-nurse (surrogate breast milk supplier) for the infant (who was in good health) had received a smallpox booster the day before the infant became ill and she reported the site was “a little painful.” Burnett also cited another case of a breast-feeding child becoming ill from the smallpox vaccine and another developing eczema and a chronic rash:
“Therefore I gave Thuja 6, in pilules, both to babe and nurse, but whether every half-hour or every hour I do not now remember. Calling later in the evening I noticed baby was asleep and looking a little less ghastly.
Next morning it was indeed still pale, but practically well; and the vaccinial vesicles on the nurse’s arm had withered, and they forth with dried up completely, in lieu of becoming pustular. That baby never looked back, and is now a bonny child. (p. 17-18)”
Note: There have been also been issue with the COVID-19 vaccines shedding into breast milk.
Burnett’s next case illustrates another key aspect of vaccinosis:
“Its subject, a lady of very high rank, over fifty years of age, had been in turns, and for many years, under almost all the leading oculists of London for this neuralgia of the eyes, i.e., terrible pain at the back of the eyes, coming on in paroxysms and confining her to her room for many days together; some attacks would last for six weeks. Some of the neuralgic pain, however, remained at all times.
Her eyes had been examined by almost every notable oculist in London, and no one could find anything wrong with them structurally, so it was unanimously agreed and declared to be neuralgia of the fifth nerve.
Latterly, and for years, she had tried nothing; whenever an attack came on, she would remain in her darkened bedroom, with her head tied up, bewailing her fate. To me she exclaimed “My existence is one life-long crucifixion!” I should have stated that the neuralgia was preceded, and accompanied by influenza.
In the aggregate these attacks of influenza and post-orbital neuralgia confined her to her room nearly half the year. In appearance she was healthy, well-nourished, rather too much embonpóint, and fairly vigorous. A friend of hers had been benefited by homeopathy in my hands, and she therefore came to me “in utter despair …”
I reasoned thus: This lady tells me she has been vaccinated five or six times, and being thus very much vaccinated, she may be just suffering from chronic vaccinosis, one chief symptom of which is a cephalalgia like hers, so I forthwith prescribed Thuja (30). It cured, and the cure has lasted till now. The neuralgia disappeared slowly; in about six weeks (February, 14,1882) I wrote in my case book “The eyes are well!””
Note: Impairments of physiologic zeta potential can be cumulative, and sometimes an influenza infection (which also decreases zeta potential) can be sufficient to tip someone with an impaired zeta potential over their critical threshold.
Upon further follow-up with this patient, she reported her chronic illness of 20 years remained fully resolved 3 years later at the time Burnett’s book went to press. Next, Burnett details the case of a 12-year old who began losing hair after a vaccination that did not take, and the hair loss reverting following administration of Thuja:
“It might have been so, as the hair is very powerfully influenced by the vaccine poisoning.”
Note: Hair loss is also common with COVID-19 and sometimes occurs after COVID vaccination — which I suspect is due to the cell danger response (CDR) being triggered since hair loss responds..
