BREAKING: 2.23 Million-Person Study Finds Pneumococcal Vaccines Increase Risk of Pneumonia and Death
The vaccines given to nearly every U.S. child and senior were linked to higher pneumonia and death rates in one of the largest real-world studies ever conducted.
For decades, U.S. and European health authorities have promoted pneumococcal vaccination as an “essential” tool to prevent serious bacterial pneumonia, meningitis, and sepsis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae.
In the United States, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) currently recommends:
- Infants and children <5 years: a 4-dose series of a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine—PCV15 or PCV20—at 2, 4, 6, and 12–15 months.
- Adults ≥50 years (PCV-naïve or unknown history): one dose of a PCV—PCV15, PCV20, or PCV21. If PCV15 is used, give PPSV23 one year later (minimum 8 weeks for certain high-risk conditions).
These vaccines are given to tens of millions of Americans every year.
Now, a landmark population-based study published in BMC Infectious Diseases has shattered the rationale for current pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) recommendations. Analyzing outcomes among 2,234,003 adults aged 50 and older in Catalonia, Spain, the authors found that recipients of both PCV13 and PPSV23 were significantly more likely to be hospitalized for pneumonia and more likely to die from pneumonia-related causes compared to their unvaccinated counterparts—even after adjusting for age, sex, comorbidities, and influenza vaccination status.

Abstract
Background: Evidence supports the safety of the recommended childhood immunization schedule as a whole. However, additional research is warranted as parents’ refusing or delaying vaccinations has increased in recent years. All-cause mortality has been identified as a priority outcome to study in the context of the recommended immunization schedule.
Methods: We included children born January 1, 2004 through December 31, 2009, enrolled in the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD) from birth through 18 months of age. We examined vaccination patterns during the first 18 months of life among 8 vaccines, and identified deaths occurring between 19 and 48 months of age. We excluded children with complex chronic conditions, contraindications to vaccination, and deaths due to injuries, congenital anomalies, or diseases with onset prior to 19 months of age. We calculated mortality rates among children with different patterns of immunization, and incidence rate ratios (IRR) using the Cox proportional hazards model for children vaccinated according to the schedule versus undervaccinated children, adjusting for outpatient healthcare utilization, influenza vaccination, sex, and VSD site.
Results: Among 312,388 children in the study, 199,661 (64%) were vaccinated according to the schedule, and 112,727 (36%) were delayed or not vaccinated for at least one vaccine dose. Of 18 deaths eligible for analysis, 11 occurred in children following the schedule (2.28 per 100,000 person-years), and seven occurred in undervaccinated children (2.57 per 100,000 person-years). Mortality rates among children following the schedule were not significantly different from those of undervaccinated children when excluding deaths with unknown causes (IRR = 1.29, 95% CI = 0.33-4.99), as well as when including deaths with unknown causes (IRR = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.32-2.99).
Conclusion: Although there were few deaths, our results do not indicate a difference in risk of all-cause mortality among fully vaccinated versus undervaccinated children. Our findings support the safety of the currently recommended immunization schedule with regard to all-cause mortality.
And I agree entirely with Steve Kirsch’s statement:
“I bet those CDC authors cut the time period short to just before things were starting to get interesting.”
This proves school ‘vaccine’ mandates are unfounded and unscientific.
