Flu Shots
A delivery system for injected industrial poisons, bypassing every digestive and biochemical defense the body possesses. The concept is biologically incoherent because viruses change every 72 hours, making any vaccine obsolete before it reaches the market.
Flu shots, in Aajonus Vonderplanitz's framework, are not a medical intervention with any genuine protective value. They are, in his view, a delivery system for a concentrated mixture of industrial poisons injected directly into the bloodstream, bypassing every digestive and biochemical defense the body possesses. He was unequivocal that no scientific evidence exists proving flu vaccines prevent any disease, and he held that the entire premise of flu vaccination is chemically and biologically incoherent given the nature of viruses and how rapidly they change within the human body.
Aajonus's opposition to flu shots was not abstract. He was personally involved in exposing the 1976 swine flu hoax alongside consumer advocate Ida Honoroff, who was syndicated on 3,200 radio stations, and Dr. Mary McBean, an MD out of San Diego. The two of them compiled extensive research showing that the swine flu of that era was manufactured to generate pharmaceutical revenue, and they co-authored a book called "Vaccination, the Clear and Present Danger." Aajonus worked with them and used his own radio access to publicize what he described as the deliberate fraud behind flu vaccination campaigns. He returned to this work in February 2009 when the H1N1 swine flu campaign was being launched, going on international radio to state that the only way a human being could contract swine flu was to be injected with it. He reported receiving death threats within weeks of those broadcasts and was subsequently abducted in a hotel room in the Philippines, where he was injected with three hypodermic needles while subdued. He described the aftermath as producing blistering sores across his body consistent with cancer-level toxicity.
Flu Vaccines Cannot Work
The foundational argument Aajonus made against flu vaccines is biological and chemical, not merely political. Viruses, in his framework, are not living organisms. They are protein-fractionating solvents that cells produce internally to disassemble and dissolve damaged or toxic tissue that bacteria, fungi, parasites, and phagocytes cannot break down. Because a virus is a cellular product specific to the tissue being cleaned, it changes completely approximately every 72 hours. The cell produces a different solvent or set of solvents as the detoxification progresses, which is why the medical and scientific communities describe viruses as constantly evolving. Aajonus used this fact to demolish the core logic of vaccination: it takes a minimum of 18 months to manufacture, test, promote, and distribute a flu vaccine. By that measure, any flu vaccine being injected is already targeting a virus that was obsolete 18 months before the product reached the market. The vaccine is never addressing the current viral activity in anyone's body. He stated this made the entire concept of flu vaccination not merely ineffective but chemically stupid, because the fundamental nature of retroviruses guarantees the vaccine will always be targeting something that no longer exists in the body being injected.
He also addressed the premise from the species angle. Because the human body does not produce pork or bird cells, it is biologically impossible for a human to develop swine flu or avian flu through natural transmission. A human body produces viruses to dissolve human tissue, specifically whatever toxic human cellular material requires disassembly. It cannot produce another species' viral solvent because it contains no cells from that species to dissolve. Aajonus stated this plainly: "You are not a pig" and "you're not a bird," and therefore the diseases named after those animals cannot arise in a human body spontaneously. The only mechanism by which a human could carry another species' flu RNA or DNA outside the digestive tract would be direct injection, which is precisely what vaccines deliver.
Flu Shot Chemical Composition
Aajonus identified five basic ingredients present in every flu vaccine and returned to this list consistently across seminars and writings. The five are liquid mercury, liquid aluminum, formaldehyde, ether, and detergent. To illustrate the absurdity of injecting these substances, he described a comedy sketch performed by a Saturday Night Live-style group in Canada during flu season, in which the performers went around interviewing people on the street about getting flu shots and then demonstrated making a flu shot live by breaking a thermometer into a blender to release mercury, adding a rotten egg to represent the disease medium, pouring in liquid aluminum, ether, and detergent, blending the mixture, and then offering it to people to drink. No one would drink it. His point was direct: if you would not drink that mixture, there is no rational justification for injecting it into your own bloodstream or into an infant's body, where the compounds bypass the entire digestive processing system.
Beyond the five core ingredients, he reported that flu vaccines contain anywhere from 43 to 66 additional ingredients, all of them chemical compounds. He described these additional ingredients as considered inert by the pharmaceutical industry and regulatory agencies, yet stated that some of them cause more damage than mercury or aluminum on their own, and that the synergistic effect of all these compounds together in a single injection produces outcomes far more destructive than any individual ingredient in isolation. He was unambiguous: there is nothing nutritive in any vaccine. Not one component serves a biological function that supports health.
On mercury specifically, he addressed the deliberate mislabeling. The mercury compound used in flu vaccines is called thimerosal, a technical name he described as specifically chosen to prevent patients from recognizing that what is being injected is mercury. He noted that the FDA eventually pressured manufacturers to make vaccines "mercury free" but that the actual reduction was from 76 quadrillion molecules of mercury per injection to 56 quadrillion molecules per injection, while still being legally labeled as mercury free. He stated that you cannot count to a quadrillion in a full lifetime, and that the reduction represented nothing meaningful in terms of toxicity. He also calculated that by the time a child has received vaccines according to the standard schedule up to age six, the cumulative mercury dose is 700 times the FDA's own stated toxic dose limit.
The rotten egg element in the vaccine formulation he described in detail. Disease organisms are grown in deteriorating eggs that have been slightly heated to destroy their defensive bacteria, making the eggs more amenable to culturing the target pathogen. These treated, partly rotting eggs become the substrate in which the viral or bacterial material is cultivated before being extracted and blended with the chemical adjuvants and preservatives that make up the rest of the injection.
The Spanish Flu Vaccine Outcome
Aajonus consistently identified the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic as the direct result of the world's first mass flu vaccine campaign, not as a naturally occurring epidemic. He pointed out that the only people who contracted the disease were those who had been vaccinated, specifically in cities and among populations with access to and exposure to the injections. Farmers and rural populations who received no vaccines had no deaths and no epidemic. He cited R.B. Pearson as a witness and researcher of the era who confirmed that every person who contracted the Spanish flu had been vaccinated. He attributed the origin of the campaign to Rockefeller and Rothschild interests, describing the Spanish flu as the first globally marketed vaccine and stating it made Rockefeller trillions of dollars while killing millions of people.
The disease was named "Spanish flu" rather than being identified as an iatrogenic disease caused by the vaccine itself, which Aajonus described as a deliberate cover-up. He noted the pattern: the first so-called deadly flu was blamed on the Spanish, and every subsequent flu scare has been named after either a foreign nation or an animal, because natural prejudice against foreigners and certain animals makes those framings easier for the public to accept without scrutiny.
He also noted the specific treatment data from 1918: nine out of every 20 people who received standard medical treatments for vaccine side effects, which manifested as flu symptoms, died. Only one out of every nine people who received herbal therapy for those same vaccine side effects died, making the medical treatment itself a major mortality multiplier during that epidemic.
He stated that every person who received the first globally marketed flu vaccine injection died, and that no one who did not receive an injection died of the disease.
The 1976 Swine Flu Hoax
Aajonus was 29 years old during the 1976 swine flu campaign and described it as the formative experience that drove his vaccine research and activism. He worked with Ida Honoroff and Dr. Mary McBean to expose what he characterized as a pharmaceutical money-generation scheme built on fabricated fear of a pandemic that did not exist. He noted that the vice president at the time was Rockefeller, who owned five pharmaceutical companies that manufactured the swine flu vaccine, and that Rockefeller used his influence to get President Ford to go on television and receive the shot publicly to encourage mass compliance.
The result, documented by Honoroff and McBean with media coverage at the polling-style injection stations where the free government-sponsored shots were being administered, was that 2,331 or 2,332 people dropped dead within two weeks of receiving the vaccine, the deaths concentrated among children and the elderly, the very populations described as most vulnerable to flu epidemics and therefore most in need of the shot. Aajonus noted that the actual CDC-acknowledged death count was reported as only 46, and that he directed people to specific books and resources to find the accurate documentation. He reported that 90 percent of the vaccine inventory was pulled and placed in vaults, where it was supposed to be destroyed but was not. He indicated that the same material was later relabeled, rebottled, and reintroduced under the 2009 H1N1 campaign, with Bush having spent 7 to 8 billion dollars on what amounted to repackaged 1976 stock.
Of the 240 to 267 million vaccines produced for the H1N1 campaign, he stated that fewer than 6 to 20 million were ultimately injected, which he attributed partially to his own radio and media work and to the music video "Just Say No to the Vaccine," produced by a British rap group who spent one million dollars creating a seven-minute-and-32-second video incorporating audio of Aajonus's radio statements. In the video, his voice is heard at approximately 13 seconds saying, "The only way you can get swine flu is to be injected with it." He described this video as a significant factor in destroying the H1N1 vaccine campaign's credibility globally, and noted that six countries sued Bayer for fraud related to the swine flu vaccine procurement.
The H1N1 Campaign Against Aajonus
In February 2009, Aajonus went on an international radio program to provide what he described as a complete debunking of the H1N1 swine flu campaign. He covered the chemistry of viruses, the impossibility of cross-species flu transmission without injection, the fraudulent death statistics being circulated, and the historical precedent of the 1976 hoax. He gave references, cited books, and named sources. Within four and a half weeks he received what he described as enormous death threats. He left the country.
Six weeks after the radio broadcast, while staying in a hotel room in the Philippines, he was subdued by two men who injected him with three hypodermics. He reported that when he woke up he found the men in the act of injecting him, which he stated was critical because it allowed him to attest that the injections had occurred. Had he not awakened, he believed the plan was to allow him to develop swine flu symptoms and die, after which he could be presented publicly as proof that even the man who claimed you could only get swine flu from injection had died of swine flu without injection, thereby discrediting his entire public message and driving vaccine uptake.
Following the injections he was violently ill, vomiting, experiencing diarrhea, passing out, and blistering with sores across his body including on his shoulder, leg, and knee. He described the three injection sites as visible bumps with red pinholes. He characterized what appeared on his skin as the toxins from the injection erupting outward, which he compared to the kind of concentrated pollution discharge he described in other vaccine detoxification cases. He stated he believed the injections contained swine flu tissue prepared in the standard vaccine manner, meaning animal tissue broken down with solvents. He noted that the sores represented cancer-level toxicity. He said he would likely be affected by those injections for another 40 years, and that if genetic damage had occurred he would be affected for life.
He put the incident into public record specifically to expose what he called a clandestine vaccine scheme, and to demonstrate that the threats from pharmaceutical and government interests against people who oppose vaccines are not rhetorical.
The Avian Flu Manufacturing Timeline
Aajonus applied the same analysis to the avian flu campaign. He pointed out that 70 million doses of avian flu vaccine appeared on the market within approximately a year and a half of the threat being publicized, and he argued this timeline is physically impossible for genuine vaccine manufacturing, implying the product existed in storage before the supposed epidemic emerged. He noted that avian flu does not transfer naturally from birds to humans, and described the entire campaign as following the same pattern: identify an animal, blame it for a disease, generate fear, sell a product that was already manufactured.
He also referenced the prior purchase by the Bush administration of 7 to 8 billion dollars worth of material for avian flu vaccine preparation, and stated that the remaining unused swine flu vaccine from the H1N1 campaign was being channeled into the avian flu vaccine program. He described the government having already paid 8 billion dollars to produce H1N1 vaccines, of which only about one million of 300 million doses were actually used, with 7 billion dollars effectively wasted.
Why Flu Vaccines Cause Disease
Aajonus's explanation of why vaccines cause the diseases they are supposedly preventing operates through his understanding of what the body does with foreign injected material. He distinguished between two responses. In people whose bodies sequester the injected toxins into the stomach lining, the short-term effects are reduced because the poisons are gradually absorbed in small amounts rather than overwhelming the system at once. These people avoid anaphylactic shock and do not immediately develop the disease the vaccine was meant to prevent, but they accumulate formaldehyde, ether, mercury, and aluminum in the stomach lining, which he confirmed through autopsies he reported performing. The long-term damage from this accumulation is severe even when the immediate reaction is mild.
In people whose bodies cannot sequester the toxins effectively, the reaction is acute: anaphylactic shock, severe flu-like illness, development of the very disease supposedly being prevented, or death. He stated that 2,300 people died within six weeks of receiving the 1976 swine flu vaccine from anaphylaxis, shock, and poisoning.
He also addressed the mechanism by which vaccines produce conditions like autism. He described his own experience after receiving a tetanus shot at 18 months old, noting that the mercury and aluminum in the injection went to his brain and severed the functional connection between his analytical and communicative motor responses. He had no ability to understand that letters formed words or that words formed phrases. He used this as direct personal evidence that the claim that vaccine mercury levels do not relate to autism is false.
He further explained that vaccines suppress the body's natural detoxification capacity not by creating immunity but by so overwhelming the system with poisons that the body dedicates all its resources to managing the toxic load and cannot produce the viruses, bacteria, or parasites it would normally use to cleanse itself. This produces the appearance of disease prevention, because the body's cleansing cycles are interrupted, but the toxic accumulation continues and eventually expresses as chronic disease, autism, meningitis, paralysis, or other conditions that are attributed to causes other than the vaccine because the delay between injection and disease onset obscures the connection.
He stated that from his research, vaccines are responsible for creating 70 percent of all diseases. He contrasted vaccinated populations against unvaccinated tribal communities he visited around the world and described the health of unvaccinated people as astronomically superior. He described workers on his farm in the Philippines aged 20 to 50, all from tribes with no vaccination history, and their physical capacity and health as evidence of what the human body is capable of without the accumulated damage of injected industrial poisons.
Aajonus's Referenced External Studies
Aajonus cited or pointed his readers toward several external bodies of evidence supporting his position that flu vaccines do not work and cause harm. From the 2006 Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, he noted that 51 separate studies involving 260,000 children between six months and 23 months of age concluded that flu vaccine worked no better than placebo. From the October 2008 Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine, he referenced a study finding that flu vaccines in young children made no difference in flu-related doctor and hospital visits. From a 2004 Archives of Disease in Childhood publication, he cited a study of 800 asthmatic children showing that those who received a flu vaccine had a significantly increased risk of asthma-related doctor and emergency room visits. From the 2009 American Thoracic Society International Conference, he referenced research showing children with asthma who received FluMist had a three-fold increased risk of hospitalization. From the 2007 Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, he referenced studies covering over 65,000 healthy adults showing no meaningful flu vaccine benefit. From a UK study covering an eight-year period with approximately 12,000 participants, he cited findings showing only a 1 percent chance that the flu vaccine worked. From researchers at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the National Institutes of Health, published in Lancet Infectious Diseases in 2008, he cited a conclusion that researchers "systematically exaggerate vaccine benefits." He also directed people to Leonard Horowitz's research on vaccines and to Dr. Sherri Tenpenny's documented answers to questions about what is in flu shots and whether they work.
Mandatory Vaccination's Legal Framework
Aajonus described the framework by which flu vaccination is enforced and the legal vulnerabilities in that framework. He noted that Congress granted pharmaceutical companies immunity from liability for vaccine injuries, but that this immunity does not extend to individual personnel who physically force a vaccination on someone. He described a six-page document he produced called an "acceptance of responsibility," which he advised people to present to anyone attempting to mandate vaccination. The document lists all toxins in the vaccine, all associated harms, and requires the person enforcing the vaccination to sign acknowledgment of personal financial liability of one million dollars per injection for any resulting harm. He stated that no one will sign such a document, and that the effect of requiring them to read it before proceeding is educational even if the attempt to force vaccination continues. He noted that authorities attempting to enforce vaccination could legally quarantine a person for three to eight hours, up to 24 hours, to verify they are not sick before allowing travel, and described the Geneva Convention prohibition on subjecting a person to an experiment without their informed consent as another legal instrument available to those resisting compulsory vaccination.
He identified three plausible motivations for promoting mandatory vaccination with products he described as containing at least 35 known poisons: money, power, and population control or reduction. He noted that vaccine-related illnesses generate cascading revenue for pharmaceutical companies, the medical industry, investors, and politicians. He described the programming of children to associate any cold, flu, or sniffle with a necessary medical visit as deliberate long-term market creation: by making children chronically ill through vaccines, the pharmaceutical industry ensures lifetime medical customers.
Flu Detox For Vaccinated People
For people who have already received flu vaccines and are dealing with the toxic burden, Aajonus offered specific dietary protocols. He recommended daily consumption of 12 to 30 raw eggs, 9 to 20 tablespoons of unsalted raw butter with at least a small amount of unheated honey, and 4 ounces of no-salt-added raw cheese. He explained that these foods bind with and absorb the enormous waste produced by viral detoxification, supporting the body's capacity to process and eliminate the accumulated toxins. He noted that the protein in eggs alone is sometimes insufficient to build the long-fibered mucus the body needs during active detoxification, and that eating some raw meat helps supply the additional protein required for mucus construction.
For those dealing with mercury and aluminum from vaccines that were administered further in the past, he recommended an afternoon fruit meal formula: half to one cup of raw berries (raspberries, blackberries, boysenberries, or cranberries) blended with 3 to 8 tablespoons of raw coconut cream, 1 to 2 tablespoons of unsalted raw butter, and 1 to 2 tablespoons of raw cream. He explained that mercury and aluminum from vaccines cause blood and neurological serums to become high in sediment and produce excessive clotting, resulting in strokes, seizures, and many other neurological conditions he categorized as vaccine-induced diseases. The berry and fat combination was his recommendation for facilitating the removal of those two metals specifically.
He described vaccine toxins as accumulating in the stomach lining in significant quantities, and noted from his reported autopsy observations that formaldehyde, ether, mercury, and aluminum are found in enormous amounts in the stomach lining of vaccinated individuals. He warned that people who have received any vaccine in their lifetime should expect difficult detoxification cycles and advised that these must be supported and seen through rather than suppressed. He also noted that the location of toxic storage in the body determines where and how the detoxification will manifest, and that vaccine toxins stored in different tissues produce different symptomatic expressions as they are mobilized.
He directed people to Dr. Rebecca Carley's book "Inoculations: The True Weapons of Mass Destruction" for additional documentation on vaccine dangers, and recommended the balanced dietary protocol laid out in "The Recipe For Living Without Disease" pages 40 to 42 for those with vaccine-induced disease from past injections.
