(For the purposes of this essay, we will focus on fatal outcomes of multiple simultaneous injections, although nonfatal harms from this practice are also real and even more common.)
The Fourth Big Lie of Vaccinology – declaring multiple simultaneous injections to be safe – is a reckless and sometimes deadly false assumption that has no legitimate scientific basis.
The simultaneous administration of multiple different vaccines, especially in children, is now standard practice in the United States. It has intensified over the past couple of decades, as additional shots have been added to the bloated CDC vaccination schedules. However, this practice has never been properly investigated, nor demonstrated to be safe.
This Big Lie has been imposed onto everyday pediatric practice to allow the excessive pediatric vaccine schedule to be administered in an expedient manner for both doctors and parents.
After all, if a family adheres to the current CDC recommended pediatric vaccine schedule, a child will receive well over 70 total doses of 23 different vaccines by age 18. Who would bring their child to the pediatrician more than 70 times in eighteen years to get one shot at a time?
Spacing out shots would be the prudent approach for those choosing to vaccinate, given the complete lack of safety data regarding giving multiple shots at once, and the clear evidence of potential harm. However, it would be highly impractical.
Furthermore, it would reveal to all involved the preposterous excess of the current CDC pediatric vaccine schedule. Why on Earth does a healthy child need to be injected an average of 4 or 5 times per year between birth and their 18th birthday? Dragging one’s child to the pediatrician that often would draw public attention the following facts:
- unvaccinated or minimally vaccinated minority populations such as the Amish thrive, with much lower rates of autism, ADHD, and other disorders
- children in the 1980s and 1990s received only a fraction of the shots on today’s schedule, and they were significantly healthier than today’s children
- multiple other developed nations recommend only a fraction of the shots on the CDC schedule, while boasting superior pediatric and general health outcomes
But if the “experts” simply declare it “safe” to administer multiple shots at once and group those shots together in large salvos of multiple vaccinations, the whole operation becomes more feasible (not to mention less obviously excessive) for pediatricians and parents alike.
Never mind the cumulative toxicity or drug-drug interactions the children face. “Kids are resilient,” remember?
The Deadly Ritual of the “Catch-Up Visit”
With 70-plus doses recommended before age 18, every so often some poor urchin is bound to fall behind with his vaccinations. But fear not. The concept of a “catch-up visit” is well established in pediatrics. In this practice, a child who is behind the official schedule is brought in to be injected with the vaccines he has not yet received, whatever the combination may be.
Vaccine zealots have heartily endorsed the “catch-up visit” for decades.
In 2002, vaccinologist Dr. Paul Offit notoriously claimed that children possess “the theoretical capacity to respond to about 10,000 vaccines at any one time.” An article in the American Academy of Pediatrics’ flagship journal Pediatrics, with Offit as lead author, endorsed the notion.
In 2023, the World Health Organization, in cooperation with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, GAVI, and promoted by Chelsea Clinton, started “The Big Catch Up,” a worldwide program to provide the wonders of multiple simultaneous vaccinations to children worldwide.
What clinical studies have been performed verifying the safety and effectiveness of this hyper-aggressive approach? None. There are reasons for the lack of clinical studies supporting multiple simultaneous vaccinations.
The first reason, of course, is that vaccinologists don’t want any studies that may demonstrate that their products are harmful in any way. In a previous essay we saw how, when their products are still in development, vaccine manufacturers use fake placebos to hide the toxicity of their products.
The second reason is that in practice, the “catch-up visit” is so chaotic and unreproducible that proper trials would be nearly impossible to conduct. Every time a child is pulled into the office to be peppered with multiple “overdue” shots, the situation is different.
One child who is deemed to be behind schedule at age two may be administered an individualized cocktail comprised of a half-dozen or more shots at once. His older sibling, age 5 and about to start school, may be subjected to a very different mixture of vaccines. The possible combinations of shots (and their potential combined toxicities) are nearly endless, and therefore completely beyond scientific knowledge.
Infanticide with Impunity
Should readers sense a certain Wild West, shoot-‘em-up-now-and-let-God-sort-‘em-out-later quality to the “catch-up visit,” this is not without reason. There have been many deaths of infants and young children in the immediate aftermath of receiving multiple simultaneous vaccinations.
Journalist Suzanne Burdick describes a recent case:
Less than 14 hours after 6-month-old Blessings Myrical Jean Simmons was given six vaccines during a 6-month wellness visit, she died. The baby received the vaccines at roughly 3 p.m. on Jan. 13, [2025] at a clinic in Louisiana, according to the baby’s mother, Brishe McKinley.
At roughly 8:30 a.m. the next morning, the parents found Blessings dead in her bassinet.
They [the simultaneously administered vaccines] included a second dose of DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis), inactivated poliovirus, Hib (short for Haemophilus influenzae type b), rotavirus and pneumococcal, and a third dose of hepatitis B.
Brishe McKinley noted that her daughter had been in “perfect health” prior to receiving the volley of vaccines.
This tragedy is repeated with shocking frequency.
On March 26, 2025, at the Golisano Children’s Hospital in Rochester, New York, during a routine pediatric visit, one-year-old Sa’Niya Carter was administered 12 vaccines at once. The barrage of shots inflicted on poor Sa’Niya included doses for “DTap/Hep B/IPV (Pediarix), HiB/Acthib/Hiberix, Pneumococcal 20-valent Conj vaccine, Varicella (Chickenpox), MMR, and Hepatitis A.”
By 4 AM on March 27, after multiple seizures, a blood glucose level of greater than 700, and a cardiac arrest, Sa’Niya Carter was dead.
The 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) granted broad immunity from product liability for vaccine manufacturers. As a supposed recourse for the vaccine injured, the Act created a Federal system called the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), through which the vaccine injured could purportedly seek justice. But the VICP has proven to be deeply problematic.
11-week-old Anna Sims died on Dec. 16, 2013, just hours after she received multiple routine vaccines including Pediarix, Hib, PCV13, and RotaTeq at a well-baby appointment. Her parents sought recourse through the VICP. Their ordeal lasted over a decade, finally ending in August 2025.
Only after the testimony of an expert pediatric neurologist/neuropathologist and an immunologist, and after rejecting appeals by HHS seeking to overturn the 2024 decision that had been made in the Sims family’s favor, did the court finalize the determination that Anna had died due to vaccine-induced encephalitis (brain inflammation), resulting in brainstem herniation and death.
14-month-old Violet Skye Rodela died on March 11, 2015, 19 days after receiving the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine, along with several other routine childhood immunizations. Her parents subsequently filed a claim with VICP in 2017.
Similar to the Anna Sims case, VICP took nearly a decade to reach a final conclusion in the Rodela case. Finally, on August 8, 2024, the United States Court of Federal Claims awarded Violet Rodela’s family $310,000, although due to delays in the California court system the amount was not paid until 2025.
As the Sims and Rodela cases illustrate, the VICP process is exceedingly unsympathetic to the vaccine-injured. Navigating the VICP is often an exhausting, years-long legal struggle ending with marginal compensation in the best of cases. According to Wade Rohde, author of The Vaccine Court 2.0, only about 50 infant death cases have been compensated by VICP in the 40 years since the NCVIA was made law in 1986.
Given the association between multiple simultaneous vaccinations and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), and given the extreme difficulty of navigating the VICP, it is highly likely that thousands of young children have died as a result of multiple simultaneous injections.
On the other hand, the fact that 50 or so infant death cases have been compensated through the unsympathetic and obstructionist VICP process provides overwhelming evidence that children are being killed by multiple simultaneous vaccinations. The question is not if children are dying from multiple simultaneous vaccines, but how many children are dying.
Imagine losing your infant child immediately after she receives a barrage of vaccinations, battling in Federal court for over a decade, and settling for the equivalent of a minimum wage-level deferred compensation package for your years of struggle.
And that’s if you win.
Of course, your child is still dead, and those responsible for her death carry on as before, harming and killing more children with impunity.
The Data Accumulates
There is accumulating evidence in the scientific literature that the practice of multiple simultaneous vaccination increases vaccine toxicity and kills children.
In a peer-reviewed study published in 2011 in Human & Experimental Toxicology, Miller and Goldman compared infant mortality rates in 30 developed nations around the world to the number of vaccines routinely administered by age 1 in each country. They found a “highly statistically significant correlation between increasing numbers of vaccine doses and increasing infant mortality rates,” with r = 0.70 (p < 0.0001).
Even CDC researchers have reluctantly admitted to the connection between multiple simultaneous vaccinations and deaths, although as part of that captured agency, their findings are typically downplayed.
In a 2015 paper in Clinical Infectious Disease, CDC researchers who reviewed the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) wrote that “For child death reports, 79.4% received >1 vaccine on the same day; among infants…86.2% received >1 vaccine.”
Despite this, and despite the fact that 544 of the 1,244 examined pediatric deaths were classified as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), the authors somehow concluded, “No concerning pattern was noted among death reports submitted to VAERS during 1997–2013.”
A very recent study by Jablonowski and Hooker analyzed a series of over 1,700 pediatric deaths matched to the children’s vaccination records. Among other results, they found that:
Children receiving all 5 first-time recommended vaccines for 2-month olds (DTaP, rotavirus, HIB, polio, and pneumococcal) were compared to children who did not receive any of the 5 vaccines in their second month of life. Children who received all five vaccines were 60% (OR=1.60 (1.12-2.32), p-value=0.0084) more likely to die in their 3rd month compared to the unvaccinated.
Furthermore, they found that baby girls were at significantly increased risk compared to boys, and that causes of death were different in the vaccinated children (including deaths due infectious diseases and neurological disease) than in the unvaccinated.
The Tide Is Turning
In this essay, we have focused on deaths resulting from multiple simultaneous injections. We have not addressed the issue of non-fatal vaccine injury associated with multiple simultaneous injections.
Another concern is how multiple simultaneous injections may impair the intended effects of vaccination. Paul Offit’s cavalier and unsupported speculations aside, how does an infant’s still-developing immune system handle a half-dozen or more challenges at once?
The standard first-year barrage recommended by the current CDC Pediatric Vaccine Schedule represents a huge and extremely varied load of antigens and other ingredients. Even setting the issue of toxicity aside, it is highly irresponsible and frankly absurd to assume that an infant’s immune system can successfully “multitask” under such intense stress and simultaneously develop effective immunity to all the antigens presented to it at once.
The inescapable conclusion is that the pharmaceutical-medical establishment that created the current CDC schedules simply doesn’t care if the practice of multiple simultaneous injections is safe or effective. Frankly, it doesn’t want to know. It just wants shots in babies.
Finally, in the wake of the blatant vaccine tyranny of the Covid era, the tide appears to be turning.
President Donald Trump recently gave Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. a mandate to bring the CDC Pediatric Vaccine Schedule into closer accord with other developed nations such as Denmark and Japan.
Furthermore, the current 70-plus dose schedule is facing legal challenge. The CDC has recently been sued on the grounds that the pediatric vaccine schedule is unconstitutional, based on violations of the First Amendment and Fifth Amendment, as well as the Administrative Procedure Act. It further alleges that CDC has been negligent in never having studied the cumulative safety of the vaccine schedule, despite being required to do so.
Any parent who takes their child to a pediatrician who advises multiple simultaneous vaccines or who proposes a “catch-up visit” might consider asking to see a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study demonstrating the safety and efficacy of whatever cocktail of vaccines the physician may want to administer.
Brishe McKinley, the mother of Blessings Simmons, was asked what she most wanted to tell the public in the wake of her baby’s death, which as we have seen, occurred less than a day after multiple simultaneous injections. McKinley said, “Don’t let you, your loved one, or your children become a statistic of Pharma.”
