so-called "Homeopathic Vaccinations"
There are several out there who advocate mass
homeopathic 'vaccination' - used routinely.
I DON'T agree with this in this way. All of the
homeopaths I know and respect and study with DO NOT agree with this approach.
If a disease is nearby and you are at risk and
you are really concerned - ie smallpox, polio,
etc, then often homeopathy can be used temporarily in
that instance. I have already posted information
on homeoprophylaxis in that type of situation.
That is NOT this.
Here are the things you can do for the threat of
an acute disease in an epidemic:
1. Wait and treat on the individual symptom
picture that you have or develop - THIS IS THE BEST
2. Find the genus epidemicus (I have/will post
more on this). This is the remedy that seems to
fit most of the people in your area in THIS particular
instance of the epidemic (not last years or in
the past, but this one) NEXT BEST
3. Use nosodes or remedies that have worked in
past epidemics THE LEAST DESIRABLE
Each of the above has its applications depending
on your situation. It is also good to have a homeopath to work with on this.
I give you this information so you know about it,
but again I DON'T agree with this.-

My comments to someone on vaccinations list questioning this...........
And it is in error in my opinion and those I study with and know.
And I will speak out every time I see this type of thing posted. I cannot
be silent. You of course can do what you will,
If you really comprehend homeopathy and its laws and principles it would
never enter into your mind to do such a thing. The list of things he gives
children is appalling to me. How does he know it prevented an illness -
children are exposed to things all the time and don't get them - chicken
pox, pertussis, colds, flu, etc. I just don't believe in disease and germs
and bacteria and viruses as allopaths and it appears Dr. Golden do. It is
not about preventing all of the supposed 'diseases'. Symptoms are just the
body's way of dissipating a disturbance. A group of symptoms is classified
by allopaths into a tidy name such as pertussis. But your 'pertussis' and
my 'pertussis' may be something totally different - a few similar symptoms
but many different. The different ones are often the key to prescribing a
homeopathic remedy IF needed (and I say IF as it is not always). He may
have so disturbed these children's vital force or immune systems, that they
could not produce symptoms which is not good - just one possibility. If
you understood the POWER of these remedies you would NEVER do such a thing.
I take a remedy with EXTREME caution - am not quick to take them as I KNOW
from experience how powerful they are. It is ludicrous for a homeopath to
think in such an allopathic way.
I encourage you to study homeopathy and you would understand what I mean.
It is the same in my opinion as a doctor or person:
1. Thinking that they'll take antibiotics preventatively so they never get
sick - an allopath would object to that
Classical homeopaths object to so-called homeopathic vaccination
Do you think a medical doctor should just go along with that idea just
because one other medical doctor thinks it works. Just because a parent
wants to do it. Do you think a classical homeopath should just go along
with the idea of 'homeopathic vaccination' just because one person who says
he's a homeopath says you should and just because a parent wants to?
No, there are laws and principles to homeopathy just as there are in
nature. You jump from a third story window, you will go down and not up.
Law of gravity. It is the same with homeopathy. You just can't make it
what you want to. Granted, we don't know everything about how homeopathy
works and certainly new viewpoints are worthy of looking at but the idea of
'homoepathic vaccination' is just NOT homeopathy. Is just not viable for
the long term for sure, and more than likely for most for the shortterm.
If I can say one thing that is important, and I've said it again and again,
you have to research enough about vaccines, disease, alternate views on
disease, alternate view on life, programming and brainwashing of us, etc.
to finally come to the conclusion that bacteria and germs and viruses DO
NOT cause disease. They are the result of disease or the problems that are
associated with 'them' are the result of disease.
Once you GET this, you don't have a fear and you don't feel a need to
prevent things in this way.
Some of Jim West's stuff is very helpful.

I just describe this as a "me-too" attempt at mimicking conventional
medicine. That the whole concept of generating artificial immunity to a
disease belongs to allopathy, & not to us. & That what we *do* have, all of
our own, are (1) homoeoprophylaxis - short-term interventions to assist the
body in making the most functional response possible to the disease, but not
to side-step around the process of developing the kind of natural immunity
that only embracing and effectively dealing with the real disease can offer;
and (2) effective means of addressing these childhood diseases with acute
homoeopathic treatment, should they require that.
Most folks who come to me wanting "homeopathic vaccination" want something
to satisfy third parties - schools, camps, grandparents. So that it can be
written down as meeting somebody else's requirements. Informing them that
the "authorities" will not accept this as a substitute usually diverts the
question.

Dear Homeolist,
There is an old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of
cure”. Hahnemann applied a similar maxim to Homœopathy. In the footnote to
aphorism 73 the Founder says, “Scarlet fever found its preventative and
curative means in belladonna”. The source of this information is
Hahnemann’s Lesser Writings.
"Who can deny that the perfect prevention of infection from this
devastating scourge, and the discovery of a means whereby this Divine aim
may be surely attained, would offer infinite advantages over any mode of
treatment, be it of the most incomparable kind soever? The Remedy capable
of maintaining the healthy uninfectable by the miasm of scarlatina, I was
so fortunate as to discover." (The Lesser Writings of Samuel Hahnemann; S.
Hahnemann (Dudgeon Edition), The Prevention and Cure of Scarlet Fever, page
377.)
Hahnemann’s skill with the group anamnesis was tested by the Asian
cholera epidemic. He selected three main remedies for the miasm, Camphor,
Veratrum Album and Cuprum Metallicum. He used these same remedies to
prevent cholera in the healthy. Hahnemann wrote a very clear description of
his methods in is work, Cure and Prevention of Cholera.
"The above preparation of copper, together with good and moderate diet,
and proper attention to cleanliness, is the most certain preventive and
protective remedy; those in health should take, once every week, a small
globule of it (Cupr. X [30C*]) in the morning fasting, and not drink
anything immediately afterwards, but this should not be done until the
cholera is in the locality itself, or in the neighbourhood." (The Lesser
Writings of Samuel Hahnemann; S. Hahnemann (Dudgeon Edition), Cure and
Prevention of Asiatic Cholera, page 755.)
Hahnemann prepared one pill for administration by mixing it with a
small amount of water in a spoon. The 30C potency was given once a week. A
remedy chosen by such a group picture is called the “genus epidemicus” In
this sense it represents the essence of the disease. Hahnemann’s technique
of collective repertorization for acute epidemics provides the homœopath
with a specific materia medica for the treatment and a clinical guide for
the prevention of acute and sub-acute miasms. The directions for evaluating
a group simillimum are found in aphorisms 100, 101 and 102. Notice that
Hahnemann in his included in his preventative approach good diet and proper
hygiene, etc..
The key to finding a specific prophylactic is constructing a clear
picture of the prevailing epidemic. Hahnemann did not give a prophylactic
remedy unless there was a clear and present danger of contracting the
disease. This is why he said to wait until the disease is in the near or in
the locality. He did not want the general populace to take preventative
remedies out of fear and phobia. Dread of the miasms have woven themselves
so deeply into the collective human psyche that it invokes archetypal fears
as seen in Lyssophobia. This is where the terror of getting a disease leads
to psychological disturbances and can even psychosomatically mimic the
symptoms of the disease! Nether the allopathic doctor nor homoeopath should
succumb to such exaggerated fears by given too many medicines.
The proponents of universal vaccination use this primitive fear as a
scare tactic to spread immunization. Some parties are imitating the
allopathic program for universal vaccination with homœopathic remedies.
This means an infant is placed on several years of genus remedies and
nosodes on request. This assembly line approach pays no attention to the
constitution, temperament and predispositions of the individual nor the
true statistical danger of infection. Why imitate the mechanistic
formations of the allopaths when Homœopathy is a vitalist healing art? It
is best to educate the patient about the ungrounded basis of their fears
through proper education. There is another way to approach prophylaxis in
infants, children and adults.
There are three major methods of homœoprophylaxis:. These are the
constitutional approach, the genus epidemicus remedies, and the nosodes.
All of these methods are very effective and can be used together according
to the time and circumstances.
1. Constitutional Prevention
The study of preventive medicine should begin with an examination of the
diathetic constitution, innate temperament and predispositions. The genetic
blue print holds the key to predispositions. The foundation of prevention
is the remedy for the chronic disease-Gestalt that is selected by the
essential nature of the totality of the symptoms. Constitutional treatment
removes the susceptibility to infectious miasms as well as strengthening
the vital force. The chronic remedy provides the best general protection
from all diseases. This method is the central strategy of Homœopathy
because it removes the greatest number of predispositions. L. J. Speight
quoted Doctor Pulford on the subject of predisposition.Dr. A. Pulford wrote:
"No disease will arise without an existing predisposition to that
disease. It is the absence of the predisposition to any particular disease
that makes us immune to it. Homœopathy alone is capable of removing these
predispositions." (Homœopathy and Immunization; L. J. Speight, page 3.)
The effectives of constitutional treatment in the prevention of
manifold diseases can not be denied. Why put the an infant on a 5 year
schedule of that includes many, many specific remedies when *global
treatment* will remove the very predispositions to manifold infectious
diseases? Anti-miasmatic treatment in the early years of life prevents
manifold diseases. Susceptibility to acute miasms is based on the chronic
miasms. If we treat the chronic miasms we remove the predispositions to
acute miasms and their complications. Those that suffer the most from the
common childhood infections like mumps and measles have psora or some other
miasm. Anti-miasmic treatment makes the human organism more immune to
infectious disease.
So why delay a global prevention by doing manifold specific remedies
for years for diseases that the is statistically very little chance of
suffering? Homeopaths should educate the parents about the nature of
constitutional prevention to help remove any unnecessary fears. If there is
a clear and present danger specific prophylaxis can be used complementary
to constitutional treatment at the right times. Parents are just as
relieved of their fears by such a program as giving manifold remedies.
2. Genus Epidemicus Remedies
The second method of prophylaxis is the genus epidemicus remedies. These
remedies are chosen by the totality of the symptoms of an epidemic as
reflected in a group of patient. This offers specific protection against
epidemic, endemic and pandemic diseases. For example, homœopaths in India
have confirmed that Lathyrus Sativa is an effective genus epidemicus remedy
for polio. The signs, befallments and symptoms of Lathyrus have a close
correspondence to this disease.
"Homœopathic physicians are satisfied that they have very safe and better
polio prevention in Lathyrus Sativa when properly given." (Homœo
Prophylactic Remedies; Sethi.)
3. Nosode Prophylaxis
The third method involves the use of the nosodes that are made from the
same or similar disease genus. The homœopaths who worked for the public
health departments of the USA gained great experience with the use of
nosodes against smallpox epidemics. In August 1974 in Guarantingueta,
Brazil, a major epidemic of meningitis threatened the countryside.
Homœopaths gave 18,640 children Meningococcinum 10C, and 6,340 children
were used as controls. The statistics of the two groups were compared in
Vaccination, A Review of their Risks and Alternatives, by Isaac Golden on
page 122. Out of the 18,640 children given Meningococcinum 10C there were 4
cases. Out of the 6,340 children in the control group there were 34 cases.
The above study shows the positive potential and minimal cost of a mass
public health program based on a single homœopathic remedy. Any simple
health care worker can be trained to assist in such a program. Genus
epidemicus remedies and nosodes are used to provide specific prophylaxis.
The genus remedies can be found for new or unknown miasms. The nosodes can
only be used when the cause of the disease is known. When epidemic diseases
threaten the population, specific prophylactic remedies can be applied
immediately. Specific protection is useful when one is traveling in areas
with dangerous endemic miasms. The homœopath may also use specific
protection when treating epidemics to offset exposure. Constitutional and
specific prophylactics are a functional polarity that completes our
therapeutic treasury.
Personally, I can see no practical reason for imitating the allopathic
immunization program with homoeopathic remedies. If the homoeopath treats
the constitution, temperament, predispositions and miasms in the first five
years of life they will prevent manifold diseases that may be suffered in
later life. It will *prevent* much more than just the miasms for which
vaccination is given. Consistent chronic treatment will prevent cancer,
heart disease, diabetes and other common chronic diseases in later life.
This is something allopathic and a pseudo-allopathic approach to
homoeopathic prophylaxis can not prevent. If the child is supplied
constitutional prophylaxis during the early years, and during this
treatment there appears a clear and present danger of infection, then one
can use complementary specific prophylaxis for those epidemics. If there
is a clear occupational hazard of inadvertent exposure specific prophylaxis
can be provided at this time. After the danger has passed the patient can
be return to constitutional treatment of their predispositions, chronic
diseases and miasms. This is the best of both worlds.
Sincerely, David Little
***************
Homeopathic Nosodes are not all that great as vaccines unless you know that
there is an epidemic in the area or that you have been exposed to a disease.
Homeopathic remedies don't last as a preventative for too long,....maybe 6
to 8 weeks for a 200c. I do suggest that my patients who wish to avoid the
flu use Influenzinum 30c or 200c in distilled water, succussed (shaken
vigoriously)several time and dosing of a few drops every month during that
season. Some folks respond to Oscillicoccinum 200c in the same manner. I
am one person who does not so I know that others also are not sensitive to
that remedy. I will often take a dose of Streptococcinum 200c if I believe
that I will be entering a home of a patient to do a housecall and that may
have that disease. So I do use the remedies as nosodes. But I have used
Pertussin 200c or 30c when a child has whooping cough. I most often notice
that giving the remedy that suits the situation of symptoms is much better.
So I might notice that everyone is calling me with a certain set of
symptoms. I realize that there must be a virus that seems to be responding
to a particular remedy. Sam Hahnemann called this Homeopathic Epidenicus.
So I will suggest that a few folks who have been exposed to that particular
sick patient also take that particular remedy for those symtpoms. But the
effects of the remedy do not last very long. This is the same for
"homeopathic vaccines" used as nosodes.
The scheduled method of allopathic vaccines is not based on science, only on
the pharmacuetical industry's wish to sell their products. They just
happen to have the approval of the goverenment and therefore, can make us
all believe that only through continued vaccination that we can "wipe out
all diseases". There is no science in any of this theory.

the constitution, temperament, predispositions and miasms in the first five
years of life they will prevent manifold diseases that may be suffered in
later life. It will *prevent* much more than just the miasms for which
vaccination is given. Consistent chronic treatment will prevent cancer,
heart disease, diabetes and other common chronic diseases in later life.
This is something allopathic and a pseudo-allopathic approach to
homoeopathic prophylaxis can not prevent. If the child is supplied
constitutional prophylaxis during the early years, and during this
treatment there appears a clear and present danger of infection, then one
can use complementary specific prophylaxis for those epidemics. If there
is a clear occupational hazard of inadvertent exposure specific prophylaxis
can be provided at this time. After the danger has passed the patient can
be return to constitutional treatment of their predispositions, chronic
diseases and miasms. This is the best of both worlds.

Homeopathic Nosodes are not all that great as vaccines unless you know that
there is an epidemic in the area or that you have been exposed to a disease.
Homeopathic remedies don't last as a preventative for too long,....maybe 6
to 8 weeks for a 200c. I do suggest that my patients who wish to avoid the
flu use Influenzinum 30c or 200c in distilled water, succussed (shaken
vigoriously)several time and dosing of a few drops every month during that
season. Some folks respond to Oscillicoccinum 200c in the same manner. I
am one person who does not so I know that others also are not sensitive to
that remedy. I will often take a dose of Streptococcinum 200c if I believe
that I will be entering a home of a patient to do a housecall and that may
have that disease. So I do use the remedies as nosodes. But I have used
Pertussin 200c or 30c when a child has whooping cough. I most often notice
that giving the remedy that suits the situation of symptoms is much better.
So I might notice that everyone is calling me with a certain set of
symptoms. I realize that there must be a virus that seems to be responding
to a particular remedy. Sam Hahnemann called this Homeopathic Epidenicus.
So I will suggest that a few folks who have been exposed to that particular
sick patient also take that particular remedy for those symtpoms. But the
effects of the remedy do not last very long. This is the same for
"homeopathic vaccines" used as nosodes.
The scheduled method of allopathic vaccines is not based on science, only on
the pharmaceutical industry's wish to sell their products. They just
happen to have the approval of the goverenment and therefore, can make us
all believe that only through continued vaccination that we can "wipe out
all diseases". There is no science in any of this theory.
There are several out there who advocate mass
homeopathic 'vaccination' - used routinely.
I DON'T agree with this in this way. Most of the
homeopaths I know and respect and study with DO NOT agree with this approach.
If a disease is nearby and you are at risk and
you are really concerned - ie smallpox, polio,
etc, then often homeopathy can be used temporarily in
that instance. I have already posted information
on homeoprophylaxis in that type of situation.
That is NOT this.
Here are the things you can do for the threat of
an acute disease in an epidemic:
1. Wait and treat on the individual symptom
picture that you have or develop - THIS IS THE BEST
2. Find the genus epidemicus (I have/will post
more on this). This is the remedy that seems to
fit most of the people in your area in THIS particular
instance of the epidemic (not last years or in
the past, but this one) NEXT BEST
3. Use nosodes or remedies that have worked in
past epidemics THE LEAST DESIRABLE
Each of the above has its applications depending
on your situation. It is also good to have a homeopath to work with on this.
I give you this information so you know about it,
but again I DON'T agree with this.-

My comments to someone on vaccinations list questioning this...........
And it is in error in my opinion and those I study with and know.
And I will speak out every time I see this type of thing posted. I cannot
be silent. You of course can do what you will,
If you really comprehend homeopathy and its laws and principles it would
never enter into your mind to do such a thing. The list of things he gives
children is appalling to me. How does he know it prevented an illness -
children are exposed to things all the time and don't get them - chicken
pox, pertussis, colds, flu, etc. I just don't believe in disease and germs
and bacteria and viruses as allopaths and it appears Dr. Golden do. It is
not about preventing all of the supposed 'diseases'. Symptoms are just the
body's way of dissipating a disturbance. A group of symptoms is classified
by allopaths into a tidy name such as pertussis. But your 'pertussis' and
my 'pertussis' may be something totally different - a few similar symptoms
but many different. The different ones are often the key to prescribing a
homeopathic remedy IF needed (and I say IF as it is not always). He may
have so disturbed these children's vital force or immune systems, that they
could not produce symptoms which is not good - just one possibility. If
you understood the POWER of these remedies you would NEVER do such a thing.
I take a remedy with EXTREME caution - am not quick to take them as I KNOW
from experience how powerful they are. It is ludicrous for a homeopath to
think in such an allopathic way.
I encourage you to study homeopathy and you would understand what I mean.
It is the same in my opinion as a doctor or person:
1. Thinking that they'll take antibiotics preventatively so they never get
sick - an allopath would object to that
Classical homeopaths object to so-called homeopathic vaccination
Do you think a medical doctor should just go along with that idea just
because one other medical doctor thinks it works. Just because a parent
wants to do it. Do you think a classical homeopath should just go along
with the idea of 'homeopathic vaccination' just because one person who says
he's a homeopath says you should and just because a parent wants to?
No, there are laws and principles to homeopathy just as there are in
nature. You jump from a third story window, you will go down and not up.
Law of gravity. It is the same with homeopathy. You just can't make it
what you want to. Granted, we don't know everything about how homeopathy
works and certainly new viewpoints are worthy of looking at but the idea of
'homoepathic vaccination' is just NOT homeopathy. Is just not viable for
the long term for sure, and more than likely for most for the shortterm.
If I can say one thing that is important, and I've said it again and again,
you have to research enough about vaccines, disease, alternate views on
disease, alternate view on life, programming and brainwashing of us, etc.
to finally come to the conclusion that bacteria and germs and viruses DO
NOT cause disease. They are the result of disease or the problems that are
associated with 'them' are the result of disease.
Once you GET this, you don't have a fear and you don't feel a need to
prevent things in this way.
Some of Jim West's stuff is very helpful.

I just describe this as a "me-too" attempt at mimicking conventional
medicine. That the whole concept of generating artificial immunity to a
disease belongs to allopathy, & not to us. & That what we *do* have, all of
our own, are (1) homoeoprophylaxis - short-term interventions to assist the
body in making the most functional response possible to the disease, but not
to side-step around the process of developing the kind of natural immunity
that only embracing and effectively dealing with the real disease can offer;
and (2) effective means of addressing these childhood diseases with acute
homoeopathic treatment, should they require that.
Most folks who come to me wanting "homeopathic vaccination" want something
to satisfy third parties - schools, camps, grandparents. So that it can be
written down as meeting somebody else's requirements. Informing them that
the "authorities" will not accept this as a substitute usually diverts the
question.

Dear Homeolist,
There is an old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of
cure”. Hahnemann applied a similar maxim to Homœopathy. In the footnote to
aphorism 73 the Founder says, “Scarlet fever found its preventative and
curative means in belladonna”. The source of this information is
Hahnemann’s Lesser Writings.
"Who can deny that the perfect prevention of infection from this
devastating scourge, and the discovery of a means whereby this Divine aim
may be surely attained, would offer infinite advantages over any mode of
treatment, be it of the most incomparable kind soever? The Remedy capable
of maintaining the healthy uninfectable by the miasm of scarlatina, I was
so fortunate as to discover." (The Lesser Writings of Samuel Hahnemann; S.
Hahnemann (Dudgeon Edition), The Prevention and Cure of Scarlet Fever, page
377.)
Hahnemann’s skill with the group anamnesis was tested by the Asian
cholera epidemic. He selected three main remedies for the miasm, Camphor,
Veratrum Album and Cuprum Metallicum. He used these same remedies to
prevent cholera in the healthy. Hahnemann wrote a very clear description of
his methods in is work, Cure and Prevention of Cholera.
"The above preparation of copper, together with good and moderate diet,
and proper attention to cleanliness, is the most certain preventive and
protective remedy; those in health should take, once every week, a small
globule of it (Cupr. X [30C*]) in the morning fasting, and not drink
anything immediately afterwards, but this should not be done until the
cholera is in the locality itself, or in the neighbourhood." (The Lesser
Writings of Samuel Hahnemann; S. Hahnemann (Dudgeon Edition), Cure and
Prevention of Asiatic Cholera, page 755.)
Hahnemann prepared one pill for administration by mixing it with a
small amount of water in a spoon. The 30C potency was given once a week. A
remedy chosen by such a group picture is called the “genus epidemicus” In
this sense it represents the essence of the disease. Hahnemann’s technique
of collective repertorization for acute epidemics provides the homœopath
with a specific materia medica for the treatment and a clinical guide for
the prevention of acute and sub-acute miasms. The directions for evaluating
a group simillimum are found in aphorisms 100, 101 and 102. Notice that
Hahnemann in his included in his preventative approach good diet and proper
hygiene, etc..
The key to finding a specific prophylactic is constructing a clear
picture of the prevailing epidemic. Hahnemann did not give a prophylactic
remedy unless there was a clear and present danger of contracting the
disease. This is why he said to wait until the disease is in the near or in
the locality. He did not want the general populace to take preventative
remedies out of fear and phobia. Dread of the miasms have woven themselves
so deeply into the collective human psyche that it invokes archetypal fears
as seen in Lyssophobia. This is where the terror of getting a disease leads
to psychological disturbances and can even psychosomatically mimic the
symptoms of the disease! Nether the allopathic doctor nor homoeopath should
succumb to such exaggerated fears by given too many medicines.
The proponents of universal vaccination use this primitive fear as a
scare tactic to spread immunization. Some parties are imitating the
allopathic program for universal vaccination with homœopathic remedies.
This means an infant is placed on several years of genus remedies and
nosodes on request. This assembly line approach pays no attention to the
constitution, temperament and predispositions of the individual nor the
true statistical danger of infection. Why imitate the mechanistic
formations of the allopaths when Homœopathy is a vitalist healing art? It
is best to educate the patient about the ungrounded basis of their fears
through proper education. There is another way to approach prophylaxis in
infants, children and adults.
There are three major methods of homœoprophylaxis:. These are the
constitutional approach, the genus epidemicus remedies, and the nosodes.
All of these methods are very effective and can be used together according
to the time and circumstances.
1. Constitutional Prevention
The study of preventive medicine should begin with an examination of the
diathetic constitution, innate temperament and predispositions. The genetic
blue print holds the key to predispositions. The foundation of prevention
is the remedy for the chronic disease-Gestalt that is selected by the
essential nature of the totality of the symptoms. Constitutional treatment
removes the susceptibility to infectious miasms as well as strengthening
the vital force. The chronic remedy provides the best general protection
from all diseases. This method is the central strategy of Homœopathy
because it removes the greatest number of predispositions. L. J. Speight
quoted Doctor Pulford on the subject of predisposition.Dr. A. Pulford wrote:
"No disease will arise without an existing predisposition to that
disease. It is the absence of the predisposition to any particular disease
that makes us immune to it. Homœopathy alone is capable of removing these
predispositions." (Homœopathy and Immunization; L. J. Speight, page 3.)
The effectives of constitutional treatment in the prevention of
manifold diseases can not be denied. Why put the an infant on a 5 year
schedule of that includes many, many specific remedies when *global
treatment* will remove the very predispositions to manifold infectious
diseases? Anti-miasmatic treatment in the early years of life prevents
manifold diseases. Susceptibility to acute miasms is based on the chronic
miasms. If we treat the chronic miasms we remove the predispositions to
acute miasms and their complications. Those that suffer the most from the
common childhood infections like mumps and measles have psora or some other
miasm. Anti-miasmic treatment makes the human organism more immune to
infectious disease.
So why delay a global prevention by doing manifold specific remedies
for years for diseases that the is statistically very little chance of
suffering? Homeopaths should educate the parents about the nature of
constitutional prevention to help remove any unnecessary fears. If there is
a clear and present danger specific prophylaxis can be used complementary
to constitutional treatment at the right times. Parents are just as
relieved of their fears by such a program as giving manifold remedies.
2. Genus Epidemicus Remedies
The second method of prophylaxis is the genus epidemicus remedies. These
remedies are chosen by the totality of the symptoms of an epidemic as
reflected in a group of patient. This offers specific protection against
epidemic, endemic and pandemic diseases. For example, homœopaths in India
have confirmed that Lathyrus Sativa is an effective genus epidemicus remedy
for polio. The signs, befallments and symptoms of Lathyrus have a close
correspondence to this disease.
"Homœopathic physicians are satisfied that they have very safe and better
polio prevention in Lathyrus Sativa when properly given." (Homœo
Prophylactic Remedies; Sethi.)
3. Nosode Prophylaxis
The third method involves the use of the nosodes that are made from the
same or similar disease genus. The homœopaths who worked for the public
health departments of the USA gained great experience with the use of
nosodes against smallpox epidemics. In August 1974 in Guarantingueta,
Brazil, a major epidemic of meningitis threatened the countryside.
Homœopaths gave 18,640 children Meningococcinum 10C, and 6,340 children
were used as controls. The statistics of the two groups were compared in
Vaccination, A Review of their Risks and Alternatives, by Isaac Golden on
page 122. Out of the 18,640 children given Meningococcinum 10C there were 4
cases. Out of the 6,340 children in the control group there were 34 cases.
The above study shows the positive potential and minimal cost of a mass
public health program based on a single homœopathic remedy. Any simple
health care worker can be trained to assist in such a program. Genus
epidemicus remedies and nosodes are used to provide specific prophylaxis.
The genus remedies can be found for new or unknown miasms. The nosodes can
only be used when the cause of the disease is known. When epidemic diseases
threaten the population, specific prophylactic remedies can be applied
immediately. Specific protection is useful when one is traveling in areas
with dangerous endemic miasms. The homœopath may also use specific
protection when treating epidemics to offset exposure. Constitutional and
specific prophylactics are a functional polarity that completes our
therapeutic treasury.
Personally, I can see no practical reason for imitating the allopathic
immunization program with homoeopathic remedies. If the homoeopath treats
the constitution, temperament, predispositions and miasms in the first five
years of life they will prevent manifold diseases that may be suffered in
later life. It will *prevent* much more than just the miasms for which
vaccination is given. Consistent chronic treatment will prevent cancer,
heart disease, diabetes and other common chronic diseases in later life.
This is something allopathic and a pseudo-allopathic approach to
homoeopathic prophylaxis can not prevent. If the child is supplied
constitutional prophylaxis during the early years, and during this
treatment there appears a clear and present danger of infection, then one
can use complementary specific prophylaxis for those epidemics. If there
is a clear occupational hazard of inadvertent exposure specific prophylaxis
can be provided at this time. After the danger has passed the patient can
be return to constitutional treatment of their predispositions, chronic
diseases and miasms. This is the best of both worlds.
