The criminals at CDC began 30 years ago to appropriately target iv drug abusers, sex workers and others with a high risk of Hepatitis B to be vaccinated.
There were not enough takers, according to CDC, so the public health officials set their sites on newborns, aimed and fired.
Hepatitis B is a viral disease transmitted via intercourse, iv drugs, or from mother to baby. All mothers are supposed to be tested for it during pregnancy, and less than 1 percent are positive. Mothers and their newborns who test positive are treated for it with vaccinations and immune globulin.
But that did not suffice for the science-light, pharma-heavy CDC. So some dim bulb decided that ALL newborns should be vaccinated for hepatitis B, within a few hours after birth.
This practice was never shown to be safe, but it pleased public health officials, who could impose the vaccinations on babies while their moms were still recovering and dopey from the birth, the babies were stuck in a hospital, and the newborns were basically chickens to be plucked.
No one ever explained why newborns whose moms were negative needed to be protected from a disease that only affected those with more than one sex partner (primarily gay men) and those using dirty needles. But the CDC decided this was a great way to get everyone vaccinated, and it would protect those newborns when they did become old enough for sex and needles.
A bell should have gone off when it turned out their immunity waned after a few years–even though those poor infants had suffered 3 doses of a vaccine they had no need for, starting in the first moments of life. But the dim bulbs at CDC ignored it.
The thing is, rates of Hepatitis B in the US are low. They are high in east Asia, but the US is not east Asia. Rates have fallen since vaccine has been available over the past 30 years.
If you look at CDC’s Figure 2.5 below you will see that reported new Hepatitis B cases are 1 per 100,000 per year in women, and 1.5 per 100,000 in men in 2018, the last year for which CDC provides data.
