VACCINATIONS
How many deaths were instigated which could be prevented?
Watchtower policies against vaccines left faithful sheep VULNERABLE to horrible consequences.
Antitoxins and vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus, anthrax, cholera, plague, typhoid, tuberculosis, and more were developed through the 1930s.
1921 - "Vaccination never prevented anything and never will, and is the most barbarous practice" - Golden Age Oct 12, 1921, p.17
1923 - "Vaccination, summed up, is the most unhygienic, barbaric, filthy, abhorrent, and most dangerous system of infection known. Its vile poison taints, corrupts, and pollutes the blood of the healthy, resulting in ulcers, syphilis, scrofula, erysipelas, tuberculosis, cancer, tetanus, insanity, and death"
- Golden Age Jan 1, 1923, pg 214
1929 - "Avoid serum inoculations as they pollute the bloodstream with their filthy pus."
– Golden Age 11/12/1929 p.107
1931 - Prohibited as being a "direct violation of the everlasting covenant."
"Quite likely there is some connection between the violation of blood [vaccines] and the spread of demonism"
- Golden Age 2/4/31 p.293
1934 - "It is better to be jailed 12 times instead of letting your child be vaccinated" - Golden Age March 28, 1934
CHANGE of POLICY
Permitted in September 1945 Consolation- "When we lose our life because we refuse inoculations, that does not bear witness as a justification of Jehovah's name. God never issued regulations that prohibit the use of drugs, inoculations, or blood transfusions. It is an invention of people, who, like the Pharisees, leave Jehovah's mercy and love aside."
Since 1952 permitted. WT 12/15/52 p.764 and AWAKE! 8/22/65 p.20
Watchtower 1952 December 15 p.764
"The matter of vaccination is one for the individual that has to face it to decide for himself....And our Society cannot afford to be drawn into the affair legally or take the responsibility for the way the case turns out."
Awake! 1993 August 8 p.25
"Previous articles in this journal and its companion, The Watchtower, have presented
a consistent position: It would be up to the Bible-trained conscience of the individual Christian as to whether he would accept [vaccinations] for himself and his family."
August 2021 Watchtower letter reports that almost 20,000 Jehovah's Witnesses have died from Covid-19, a tragedy for all those affected by such loss. This figure is four times higher than the global average.
In November 2020, an Announcement advised that 130,000 Jehovah's Witnesses had been infected with Covid-19 and over 5,000 had died.
Using 2019 publisher figures, 1.5% of Jehovah's Witnesses had contracted the virus, of which 3.8% died. Global figures at the time were an infection rate of 0.6% and a 2.5% death rate.
The confidential letter addressed To All Special Full-time Servants At Bethel And In The Field, dated August 6, 2021, advised that nearly 20,000 Jehovah's Witnesses have died. This means that 0.236% of Jehovah's Witnesses have died of Covid-19, over 4 times higher than the global rate in August 2021 of 0.051%.

PLEASE NOTE:
Edward Jenner’s innovations, begun with his successful 1796 use of cowpox material to create immunity to smallpox, quickly made the practice widespread. His method underwent medical and technological changes over the next 200 years, and eventually resulted in the eradication of smallpox.
Louis Pasteur’s 1885 rabies vaccine was the next to make an impact on human disease. And then, at the dawn of bacteriology, developments rapidly followed.
Antitoxins and vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus, anthrax, cholera, plague, typhoid, tuberculosis, and more were developed through the 1930s.
