How Its Made ~ SV40 Polio Vaccine & Cancer ~

Video Transcript:

Top Cancer Research Specialist Dr. Bernice Eddie warned the US Congress in 1972 that if the polio vaccine containing the deadly virus, SV-40, was not withdrawn from general use, there would be an epidemic of cancer and related deaths in the millions, 20 years later. She was ignored and penalized for stating this, losing all funding for her research. Of course, as predicted, the figures show not only the outbreak of HIV-AIDS, which is claimed millions of lives, but also of the cancer death epidemic that she spoke of. The US Congress has been in a very serious state for decades, and has been in a very serious state. The US Congress has been in a very serious state for decades, and has been in a very serious state. The US Congress has been in a very serious state, and has been in a very serious state. The US Congress has been in a very serious state, and has been in a very serious state. Many claims have been made detailing the controversy surrounding SV-40 research. Many investigative journalists indicate that researchers were penalized for reporting the findings of a potential cause and effect relationship between the early polio vaccine, SV-40, and cancer. And further alleged, falsification of research due to financial conflicts of interest at pharmaceutical companies. An analysis presented at the Vaccine Cell Substrate Conference in 2004 suggested that vaccines used in the former Soviet block countries, China, Japan, and Africa, could have been contaminated up until 1980, meaning that hundreds of millions more people could have knowingly been exposed to these viruses. Of course, all the world ever saw through newspapers, radio, and a new FAD called television, even back then, was this. These are the proud hills of the state of Virginia in the springtime of 1956. Springtime, beckoning to a small boy, urging him to wander with the wind, to the farm, perhaps, over the past year fence to catch a cat. Not an easy thing, because, after all, a cat's a youngster like himself. Ride him? Sure. Well, what's a day without a little rough and tumble? When a boy needs comfort, there's always home and mother and father. This is the world of Randy Kerr of Okten, Virginia. Typical, except for one thing. Randy was the first child to receive an injection of salt polio vaccine in the field trials in 1954. Much, however, had preceded this moment when Randy Kerr made history. In 1954, a vaccine to prevent paralytic polio, developed by Dr. Jonas Salk, a grantee of the National Foundation, was tested in the largest field trials in medical history. Finally, April 12, 1955, Salk vaccine safe, effective. The next challenge, commercial production of the polio vaccine in quantity. A huge task, a complex process, all detailed in this book. It's officially called a protocol. Here, the manufacturer records every step in the production of one lot of vaccine. Vital to the production of the vaccine are monkeys from the far east, given the best of care. Meanwhile, another basic ingredient of the polio vaccine is being prepared. A rich, nourishing liquid called medium-199. Some 68 different elements go into medium-199. Each is carefully checked, weighed, and combined according to the formula. And when all is thoroughly blended, the medium is tested for absolute sterility. Why the elaborate preparation? Into medium-199 will go monkey kidney tissue. First, carefully minced my hand. In these bottles, the monkey kidney tissue grows, getting its nourishment from the rich medium-199. For six days, the bottles rock and the tissue grows. Then, because all the nourishment in the medium is exhausted, half is siphoned off to be replaced by fresh medium, but with a difference. The difference, a big one, is that here for the first time, live polio virus is planted in the medium. Three different strains of polio virus are added. The completed vaccine will protect against all three types of paralytic polio. And once more, the bottles rock. In four days, the virus, so minute, yet so lethal, multiplies 250 to 1000 times. Another stage in the complex production of vaccine has been reached. The polio virus solution is ready for harvesting. Next filtration of vitally important process. First, the virus solution goes through these metal tubes containing porcelain filters. Then, through sheets of asbestos, to strain out all kidney tissue and remove any stray bacteria. More tests. Rabbits are inoculated to make sure that no B virus, a dangerous but non-polio virus, is in the solution. Guinea pigs too receive injections to make certain that the solutions are free of tuberculosis and the cellulose. Finally, the climax of production inactivation. The power of the polio virus to infect man will be utterly destroyed. The colorless, pungent chemical for maldehyde will deal the deadly blow to the polio virus. For 66 hours in a warm incubator room, the inactivation process continues. Then, what remains can only do good. Provide humans with protection from paralytic polio. A chapter ends. The enemy of man is now ready to become his servant. At every step of the way, checks and double checks. This technician is working on a tissue culture safety test. Double check on the complete inactivation of the virus. For such tissue culture tests are conducted on every batch of vaccine. These are the bottles which finally will find their way to doctors offices and clinics all over the country. Once the public health service authorizes its release, the polio vaccine can begin to protect American youngsters. In 1955, over 10 million children receive one or more injections of self-vaccine. For maximum protection from paralytic polio, three inoculations. The second give a not less than two weeks after the first. Not less than seven months later. Your child or any member of your family eligible for polio vaccine in your community should be vaccinated now. Vaccination now will save lives from death or paralysis this year. Make use of increasing supplies of vaccine. Help your child grow up strong and straight, free from crippling polio. The second give a not less than three weeks after the first.
