2.5 Million Cubans Successfully Vaccinated with Homeopathic Remedies

At a recent conference in Cuba (Dec.2008) Homeopaths from around the world presented cases of successful homeopathic prophylaxis. One of the most impressive cases presented came from Cuba itself, thanks to trade embargoes, a country free from the pressures of the pharmaceutical lobby.

Cuba suffers from yearly epidemics of Leptospirosis, a bacterial disease that can cause a variety of symptoms including: high fever, severe headache, chills, muscle aches, vomiting, jaundice, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or a rash. If the disease is not treated, the patient could develop kidney damage, meningitis , liver failure, and respiratory distress. (according to the CDC)

According to a preliminary report by the Finlay Institute:

"On October November 2007, three provinces of the eastern region of Cuba were affected by strong rainfalls causing floods of big areas and several damages to sanitary and health systems. The risk of leptospirosis infection raised extremely dangerous levels with about 2 million of peoples exposed to potentially contaminated water.

Considering this situation, the Finlay Institute prepared a leptospira nosode 200 CH using 4 circulating strains and following international quality standards. A multidisciplinary team travelled to the affected regions to conduct the massive administration of the nosode. Coordinated action with public health system infrastructures allowed the administration of a preventive treatment consisting in two doses (7- 9 days apart) of the nosode to about 2,4 million of people (4,8 million of doses). The coverage of the intervention rose up to 95% percent of total population of the three provinces at risk."


The typical expectancy of illness would have been in the thousands even with allopathic vaccinations, along with many deaths. The problem with dispensing the usual allopathic vaccination was the high cost which prevented getting the vaccination to those most at risk, namely children, pregnant women and the elderly. The usual cost for vaccinating the population is around 3 million dollars for 2.5 million people.

Following the use of the homeopathic profilaxis made from the leptospirosis bacteria in August 2007 (a time of typical high incidence thanks to hurricane season)there were only 10 cases of leptospirosis and no deaths resulting from the disease. In all of 2008 there were no deaths and rates of infection never went over 10 people per month.

This is an important historical event as such immunization would not have been allowed anywhere else.

We eagerly await the full report.
