During the course of his research in a project funded by the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Dr. Goldman discovered several
inconsistencies while computing the risk associated with shingles, a disease he
had been studying since January, 2000. The fact that shingles can cause
excruciating pain and suffering even after the resolution of the rash, combined
with the fact that shingles is a reactivation of the same virus that causes
chickenpox, caused Dr. Goldman to pursue further scientific investigations.
Virtually all positive findings presented by Dr. Goldman were incorporated into medical journal articles published by officials from the CDC and Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. There seemingly appeared to be success with a dramatic decline in reported chickenpox cases by nearly 80% from the licensure of the chickenpox vaccine on March 17, 1995 through 2000. However, the negative or deleterious findings that Goldman began objectively reporting in 2001 and thereafter were treated much differently.
Dr. Goldman sought a more comprehensive understanding of the biological mechanism that might explain the reason for the unexpectedly high incidence of shingles he found among children in a community where chickenpox vaccination was wide-spread. Searching through the medical literature, Goldman uncovered a study by Dr. Hope-Simpson published in 1965 that first suggested an adult’s immune system may be boosted to prevent or postpone the reactivation of shingles every time an adult was exposed to a child with chickenpox. Dr. Goldman, later joined by other researchers, logically reasoned that if that hypothesis were correct and chickenpox vaccination nearly eradicated cases of childhood chickenpox, adults would no longer receive the immunologic boosting that they received previously and a shingles epidemic might ensue.
After concluding an analysis of the preliminary data, Dr. Goldman navigated a range of challenges, some of which may have been rather unexpected, including a degree of opposition and a notice to “cease and desist” publication in a medical journal. It soon became clear to Dr. Goldman that the CDC was interested in publishing only “half the story” about chickenpox vaccination. Dr. Goldman resigned in 2002 stating, “Whenever research data and information concerning potential adverse effects associated with a vaccine used in human populations are suppressed and/or misrepresented by health authorities, not only is this most disturbing, this goes against all accepted norms and compromises professional ethics.”
To expose, warn against, and encourage steps to remedy what Dr. Goldman knew to be such abuses of ethics and public trust, he has approved the release of the 300 page book entitled The Chickenpox Vaccine: A New Epidemic of Disease and Corruption.
While the book is an accessible resource documenting what he perceives as a “cover up” concerning the increase in shingles arising from the Universal Varicella Vaccination Program, Dr. Goldman integrates scientific information and straightforward commentary on adverse outcomes associated with the Hepatitis B vaccine, Thimerosal-containing vaccines, the shingles vaccine, water fluoridation, the practices of instant or early cord clamping (ICC/ECC) and flat on-the-back or semi-sitting birth positions, and others.
The concluding sections of the book discuss conflicts of interests between public health officials and the pharmaceutical industry that may have “undermined the stated health aims” of various large scale health initiatives. Considerable appendices are incorporated as an accessible resource that can be shared with healthcare professionals.
Thus, parents with school-age children, grandparents, and even single active adults and the elderly, all of whom will be at increased risk of shingles, stand much to gain through the insightful discussion of health issues that are related in the book. Different from other medical exposes, Dr. Goldman’s book is not based on only fringe data and reports gleaned from a medical journalist on the “outside”, but his account is that of a true research insider—one who made significant contributions to investigational research and interfaced with public health authorities impacting national health policy.
The facts and references presented are no exercise in alarmism or exaggeration. Dr. Goldman’s balanced and candid discussion will enhance your appreciation of medical issues and enable you and your loved ones to make better informed healthcare decisions. His book suggests valuable reform measures necessary to restore the health and wealth of the U.S. and halt the continual cycles of disease and treatment.

For the past several years, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has been actively promoting the shingles vaccine as the solution to what some experts say is a building shingles epidemic.
But a new study published in the German medical journal Der Hautarzt, or “The Dermatologist” in English, has revealed that the childhood vaccine for chicken pox, a common viral disease related to shingles, may actually be directly responsible for triggering this epidemic.
Also known clinically as varicella-zoster virus (VZV), chicken pox is a relatively mild form of herpes virus that typically manifests itself during the early childhood years. Nearly all children who develop the condition at a young age, in fact, never develop it again, and are also usually imparted with lifelong immunity to both VZV and its relative, herpes zoster, a more severe form of the disease commonly referred to as shingles.
According to the new study; however, getting vaccinated with the chicken pox vaccine, which first became commercially available in the U.S. back in 1995, could damage this natural immune cycle. Based on the available data, getting vaccinated for chicken pox may end up blocking the mechanisms the body uses to develop its own natural immunity to both chicken pox and shingles, causing much worse infection later on down the road.
A five-year-old girl, it turns out, was found recently to have developed severe symptoms of shingles not long after being vaccinated for chicken pox. Researchers from Helios Klinikum in Germany conducted a direct immunofluorescence assay on the child to look for evidence of the vaccine strain in the infection, and found that the vaccine strain had, indeed, caused the child to become infected with the much more severe shingles virus.
“This case demonstrates that a negative VZV direct immunofluorescence assay does not exclude an infection with the vaccine strain,” wrote the authors in their study abstract, which you can view here:

Chicken pox vaccine prevents body from developing its own natural immunity to shingles
Adults, and particularly those who have not yet had the chicken pox, are said to be most prone to developing shingles, which is why the CDC and others are urging individuals over age 50 to get a shingles vaccine. But what this bloated bureaucracy is failing to disclose publicly is the fact that the sudden uptick in shingles cases is directly associated with the advent of the chicken pox vaccine.
People who were vaccinated for chicken pox as children beginning in the 1990s are now eclipsing into adulthood. Many of these children have never had the chicken pox, which means their bodies have never had the chance to develop natural immunity to both future infection with chicken pox and shingles. As a result, this chicken pox-vaccinated generation is not only seeing an increase in shingles infections rates, but is also shedding the virus onto others.
Back in 2005, Dr. Gary S. Goldman, Ph.D., the formed Editor-in-Chief of the charity Medical Veritas, published a study in the International Journal of Toxicology showing that even if the chicken pox vaccine did eradicate chicken pox as claimed, it would induce a much more severe shingles epidemic that would gradually build in intensity for up to 50 years. It now appears as though Dr. Goldman’s findings were, indeed, correct.
