Merck Continues to Make Hundreds of Millions on Measles Vaccine – 58% Increase After 2019 Measles “Outbreak”

Comments by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

Sales of Merck’s measles vaccine, the MMR combo vaccine that also includes mumps and rubella, continues to soar as Merck reported this week that in the second quarter of 2019, sales for the measles vaccine were 58% higher than the year before, at $675 million.

As CNBC reports:

Pharmaceutical giant Merck said Tuesday that high consumer demand for its measles vaccines, amid the largest U.S. outbreak in decades, helped boost sales in its second quarter.

Sales of children’s vaccines, which includes the New Jersey-based company’s MMR vaccine, for measles, mumps and rubella, jumped 58% year over year to $675 million, Merck announced in its second-quarter earnings report Tuesday.

Merck, which is the sole U.S. supplier of measles vaccines, said the strong growth was due in part to this year’s measles outbreak… (Source.)

Is there any other sector of the U.S. economy that is more profitable than vaccines? Consider these facts:

The U.S. Government gave legal immunity to pharmaceutical companies in 1986, because Big Pharma threatened Congress by stating they would stop manufacturing and selling vaccines due to the many lawsuits brought against them for vaccine injuries. Vaccines have proliferated in the market place since 1986 as a result, with the CDC recommending up to 69 doses of vaccines to children before they reach the age of 18.
In most states, the CDC recommended vaccine schedule is required for children at attend school.
The U.S. Government owns several patents on vaccines, and the CDC is the largest purchaser of vaccines, using U.S. taxpayer funds to purchase more than $5 billion in vaccines each year.

Is there any other market in the U.S. where there is virtually no liability for your products, the government requires you to purchase the product, and the government itself is the largest customer of those products? Also, most vaccines have only one manufacturer approved by the U.S. government for sale in the U.S., such as the MMR vaccine, creating a monopoly for that product.

And if that is not enough to ensure business success, local health departments can pick and choose which illnesses should be classified as “outbreaks” which are then announced by the compliant corporate media, largely funded by the pharmaceutical industry, to boost sales of a vaccine even more.

As we have reported here at Health Impact News in 2019, the measles “outbreak” does not even come close in terms of incidents to other diseases facing Americans, including mumps, which is also part of the MMR vaccine. Many more thousands of people have been infected with mumps in 2019, than measles. See:

Why Aren’t Mumps Outbreaks Considered “Epidemic” When There are Thousands More Cases of Mumps than Measles?

Whooping cough incidents also far exceed incidents of measles, resulting in deaths, whereas no deaths have been recorded this year from measles. See:

Killing 20 Babies a Year and Infecting Tens of Thousands: Measles? No – Whooping Cough – Spread by Vaccinated

The obvious reason these other illnesses with far higher incident rates are not considered “outbreaks” is because they are happening mostly among the vaccinated population – those vaccinated for the disease are nevertheless contracting the disease and spreading it to others.

In fact, Merck has been embroiled in a 9-year-old fraud lawsuit against the mumps portion of the MMR vaccine – something the corporate-sponsored mainstream media is not reporting. See:

Merck Fighting Fraud Lawsuits in U.S. Courts on MMR and Gardasil Vaccines

So measles is chosen as the illness to classify as an “outbreak” to invoke emergency powers in local communities, but to do this a lie must also be published: that measles is making a comeback due to more parents refusing to vaccinate their children for measles.

Even the CNBC article referenced above reporting on Merck’s 2nd quarter growth for the MMR vaccine continues to spread this lie:

Measles started to spread again in recent years as more parents refused to vaccinate their children…

But the facts, facts published by the CDC themselves, state otherwise. Rates of MMR vaccination have not decreased in the past several years. In fact, they have actually increased in some states due to new legislation mandating vaccines. JB Handley revealed this earlier this year:

This is why Cuomo sold out the children of New York state.

If you’re comfortable putting your children’s lives in the hands of known criminals, go for it.

Massive Fraud In Merck MMR (Measles Mumps Rubella) Vaccine Testing

“According to the whistleblowers’ court documents, Merck’s misconduct was far-ranging: It:

• “failed to disclose that its mumps vaccine was not as effective as Merck represented,

• (ii) used improper testing techniques,

• (iii) manipulated testing methodology,

• (iv) abandoned undesirable test results,

• (v) falsified test data,

• (vi) failed to adequately investigate and report the diminished efficacy of its mumps vaccine,

• (vii) falsely verified that each manufacturing lot of mumps vaccine would be as effective as identified in the labeling,

• (viii) falsely certified the accuracy of applications filed with the FDA,

• (ix) falsely certified compliance with the terms of the CDC purchase contract,

• (x) engaged in the fraud and concealment describe herein for the purpose of illegally monopolizing the U.S. market for mumps vaccine,

• (xi) mislabeled, misbranded, and falsely certified its mumps vaccine, and

• (xii) engaged in the other acts described herein to conceal the diminished efficacy of the vaccine the government was purchasing.”

Fetal DNA Contaminants Found in Merck’s Measles Vaccines

Merck’s MMR II vaccine (as well as the chickenpox, Pentacel, and all Hep-A containing vaccines) is manufactured using human fetal cell lines and is heavily contaminated with human fetal DNA from the production process.

Levels in our children can reach up to 5 ng/ml after vaccination, depending on the age, weight and blood volume of the child. That level is known to activate Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), which can cause autoimmune attacks.

Furthermore, children with autistic disorder have antibodies against human DNA in their circulation that non- autistic children do not have. These antibodies may be involved in autoimmune attacks in autistic children. [iv]

What Does Merck Think of You?

Just to put it into perspective…

Merck’s "FDA-approved" Vioxx killed 60,000 Americans— the same number that died in Vietnam. Fraudulent studies got VIOXX approved—and people want to entrust their children’s lives to this criminal organization?

And even though Merck had to pay a $4 billion fine, they made many times that amount from this product. (Paying huge fines are just the cost of doing business.)

But don’t worry—no Merck executives’ careers were harmed in the prosecution of this company. These SERIAL KILLERS* still received their bonuses while people died.

Why doesn’t Merck just change their name to Murder Inc. already?

* Other serial killers have gotten the death penalty for killing far fewer people.

Former Merck Scientist Explains Why He Doesn’t Vaccinate His Children Due to Lack of Vaccine Safety Studies

"Former Merck scientist, Araujo relates that as he began to ask questions about vaccine efficacy and safety, the answers were not there. His research showed him that the robust science and quality controls present in regular drug manufacturing did not seem to be present with vaccine manufacturing.

So he and his wife decided not to vaccinate their children, and today they are all “super healthy.”
