The Only Credible Cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Is Vaccines

Prior to contemporary vaccination programs, ‘Crib death’ was so infrequent that it was not mentioned in infant mortality statistics. For the first time in history, most US infants were required to receive several doses of DPT, polio, measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines. Shortly thereafter, in 1969, medical certifiers presented a new medical term – sudden infant death syndrome. In 1973, the National Center for Health Statistics added a new cause-of-death category – for SIDS – to the ICD. SIDS is defined as the sudden and unexpected death of an infant which remains unexplained after a thorough investigation.
