I'd like to acknowledge a few books that opened my eyes to this controversial but fascinating field of research.

The first is The Virus and the Vaccine, a fascinating true story of the contamination of the polio vaccine with a cancer-causing monkey virus.

The second is Dr. Mary's Monkey. Although I didn't use this book as a source, it's a thrilling story in its own right, and weaves together the JFK assassination, the contaminated polio vaccine scandal, and a secret project to develop a bio-weapon to kill Fidel Castro.

Lastly I owe much of this research to the indispensable Vaccine Safety Manual for Concerned Families and Health Practitioners. The thousands of references provided have proved to be a veritable gold mine.

The rest is continued in the following sections:

  1. The Audacity of the "Anti-Vaxxer"

  2. Contamination, Compensation and Corruption

  3. Risks, Reactions and Revenue

  4. Birth Control Controversy and Measles Malpractice

  5. The Chickenpox/Shingles Charade

  6. Smallpox Shenanigans

  7. Paralysis and the Politics of Polio
