DECEPTION: Health authorities in Maine hid the fact that MMR vaccines caused lone case of MEASLES in the state

10/03/2024 / By Ava Grace

Health authorities in the state of Maine reportedly deceived residents by hiding the fact that the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine caused last year’s lone measles case there.

Documents released by the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) on Sept. 24 revealed this deception. According to the trove, the Maine Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Maine CDC) reported a single case of measles in May of last year.

The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (Maine HHS) warned on May 5, 2023 that the Maine CDC had been notified of a positive measles test — ostensibly the state’s first measles case since 2019. The infected child was tested for measles, with mainstream media (MSM) quickly jumping on the development and running stories on the case.

MSM outlets went to work by blaming vaccine hesitancy, with fake news network CNN blaming low vaccination rates for “recent measles outbreaks.” Meanwhile, USA Today stressed that the best way to prevent measles is for children and babies as young as 12 months to get the MMR injection.

Almost two weeks after the testing, the Maine CDC announced on May 16, 2023 that the child didn’t have an infectious strain of measles. But the announcement failed to state that the child’s rash was vaccine related. The Maine HHS said the child “received a dose of measles vaccines” and that officials at the Maine CDC were “considering the child to be infectious out of an abundance of caution.”

The child’s May 3, 2023 test results, which ICAN also obtained following a Freedom of Information Act request, revealed that the measles strain was “consistent with vaccine strain” – meaning the vaccine caused the child’s rash symptoms.

According to the World Health Organization, roughly two percent of people injected with the measles vaccines develop a rash. However, the Maine CDC did not disclose this information. (Related: Measles vaccines kill more children than the measles… and it’s not even close.)

Government at it again with fear-mongering

Children’s Health Defense (CHD) General Counsel Kim Mack Rosenberg told the Defender that measles “outbreaks” are a well-worn tactic of state and federal government agencies to churn up fears about people who choose not to vaccinate or who do so selectively.

“We have seen measles used this way over and over. Here, the narrative backfired and Maine officials swept under the rug the fact that the child’s measles strain was vaccine-related,” she said.

“Their fear is that such information would lead to more vaccine hesitancy. However, obfuscating information in this way deprives the public of crucial information about vaccine safety and effectiveness.”

According to Mack Rosenberg, MSM news outlets “immediately” jumped on “the fearmongering bandwagon” before the strain type was identified. “Yet when the true nature of this child’s exposure was revealed, ranks were closed to prevent the truth from getting out,” she continued.

“Fearmongering is formulaic: Danger, solution and vilify those who do not conform,” said CHD Senior Scientist Karl Jablonowski. According to him, it was “reckless fear-mongering” to identify one case of measles in a vaccinated child and then issue a press release saying that anyone who isn’t immunized against measles, or doesn’t know their immunization status, should get vaccinated.

Pediatrician Dr. Liz Mumper earlier remarked that it doesn’t make sense to assume the unvaccinated are to blame. According to the Defender, media reports sometimes blame the unvaccinated for recent outbreaks.

“Measles can be deadly if a child does not have access to safe water and medical care. In developed countries, fatalities from measles are very rare,” she said.
