Violence seems to be erupting among youths everywhere, from Los  Angeles(1) to Omaha(2) to Brooklyn(3) - indicating something is  seriously going wrong in the minds of young persons in this country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Why Young Brains Are Sick&lt;/h1&gt;The list of assailing particles on children is long, and starts with chemical &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/exposure.html"&gt;exposure&lt;/a&gt; in the womb. In July, 2005, the Environmental Working Group released a hallmark study using cord &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/blood.html"&gt;blood&lt;/a&gt;  to assess the chemical exposure of neonates in-utero. The placenta has  long been thought to shield the developing baby from pollutants in &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/the_environment.html"&gt;the environment&lt;/a&gt;. The study's alarming results dispelled this as a wishful myth. Of the 287 &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/chemicals.html"&gt;chemicals&lt;/a&gt; identified in the umbilical cord blood of 10 infants, 180 were known &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/carcinogens.html"&gt;carcinogens&lt;/a&gt;, 217 were toxic to &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/the_brain.html"&gt;the brain&lt;/a&gt; and nervous system, and 208 have been associated with &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/birth.html"&gt;birth&lt;/a&gt;  defects or abnormal development in animal tests. The study concluded  that, "the dangers of pre- or post-natal exposure to this complex  mixture of carcinogens, developmental &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/toxins.html"&gt;toxins&lt;/a&gt; and neurotoxins have never been studied."(4)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within hours of emerging from the womb, a newborn is given a dollop of antibiotics in the eyes, injected with the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/hepatitis.html"&gt;hepatitis&lt;/a&gt; b vaccine, with known neurotoxic properties,(5)and jabbed with a &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vitamin_K.html"&gt;vitamin K&lt;/a&gt;  shot, which contains 9 mg of benzyl alcohol. In 1992, Golding published  concerns that vitamin K injections could be associated with a doubled  risk of malignant disease in &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/children.html"&gt;children&lt;/a&gt;,  particularly leukemia. While there have been considerable doubts about  whether the association is coincidental or causal, the controversy has  never been completely resolved.(6)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Starting around the 60th day of life, &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/infants.html"&gt;infants&lt;/a&gt; with still immature immune systems are subjected to a battery of &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vaccines.html"&gt;vaccines&lt;/a&gt;: DTaP, HiB, polio, Prevnar, and a squirt of oral rotavirus &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vaccine.html"&gt;vaccine&lt;/a&gt;,  all generally given at the same time. The onslaught of these shots,  including two additional injections of hepatitis b vaccine, repeats  twice, every 60 days. This deposits approximately 66 different viral or  bacterial antigens and measurable amounts of a dozen different chemicals  into a six month old infant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the time a &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/child.html"&gt;child&lt;/a&gt;  is five years old, a little 40 pound human will receive up to 35  injections, containing at least 110 different weakened pathogens (or  pathogen particles), and an assortment of 59 different chemicals. If all  approved shots are administered, the little tot will also be injected  with stray viral DNA, four types of animal cells, cells from aborted  fetal tissue and a bit of human albumin (a foreign protein.) By the way,  all of these substances are listed on package inserts for each vaccine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Subjective Labels for Brain Pathology&lt;/h1&gt;According to the U.S. Surgeon General, nearly 20 percent of American children and adolescents suffer from a &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/mental_disorder.html"&gt;mental disorder&lt;/a&gt; so significant, it interferes with their day-to-day &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/life.html"&gt;life&lt;/a&gt;.(7) The plethora of diagnoses fall into a few fairly well defined categories: &lt;b&gt;Conduct &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/disorders.html"&gt;disorders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, such as attention-deficit hyperactivity &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/disorder.html"&gt;disorder&lt;/a&gt; (ADHD); &lt;b&gt;learning disabilities&lt;/b&gt;, a spectrum of speech delay and comprehension issues; and &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/mood.html"&gt;mood&lt;/a&gt; disorders&lt;/b&gt;, which include depression, &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/bipolar_disorder.html"&gt;bipolar disorder&lt;/a&gt; and chronic anxiety.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Centers for Disease Control (&lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/CDC.html"&gt;CDC&lt;/a&gt;)  approximates that nearly 5.4 million children 4 to 17 years of age have  been diagnosed with ADHD alone (2007 data). This represents nearly 1 in  10 of all children - and the number has been escalating. Between 2003  and 2007,(8) the number of parent-reported children diagnosed with ADHD  increased by 22 percent. Disturbingly, in an attempt to quell their  out-of-control &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/behavior.html"&gt;behavior&lt;/a&gt;, more than two thirds of these children have been placed on at least one prescription &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/medication.html"&gt;medication&lt;/a&gt;. Since the underlying cause for the sick &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/brain.html"&gt;brain&lt;/a&gt;  and hyperkinetic behavior has not been identified and addressed, the  drugging is akin to tightening down the lid on a boiling pot of water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One  of these behavioral disorders, called Oppositional Defiant Disorder  (ODD),(9)is said to manifest around 8 years of age. Mannerisms include:  easily losing one's temper; aggressively arguing with &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/adults.html"&gt;adults&lt;/a&gt;  and defying requests; refusing to follow rules; deliberately annoying  other people; blaming others for one's own mistakes or misbehavior; and  being touchy, easily annoyed or angered, resentful, spiteful, or  vindictive. In 2008, ODD was the most common reason children were  referred to &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/mental_health.html"&gt;mental health&lt;/a&gt;  professionals for an assessment, accounting for at least half of all  out patient visits to psychiatrists and psychiatric practitioners. These  children, mostly boys, are commonly diagnosed and treated for several  coexisting &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/mental_disorders.html"&gt;mental disorders&lt;/a&gt;.(10)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The  fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental  Disorders (DSM-V) is about to be released, replacing the older DSM-IV.  The DSM (11) is a catalog of hundreds of psychiatric conditions,  including a long list of &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/anxiety.html"&gt;anxiety&lt;/a&gt;, personality and adjustment disorders. Diagnoses are available to give children who struggle with math and writing skills a &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/diagnosis.html"&gt;diagnosis&lt;/a&gt;  (Mathematics Disorder 315.1 and Disorder of Written Expression 315.2,  respectively), labeling a child who has a missing skill with a mental  deficiency. New disorders are on the horizon too, such as Temper  Dysregulation Disorder with Dysphoria (TDD),(12)a tweak to the current  diagnosis of bipolar disorders for children under the age of ten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treatments offered for malfunctioning, unhealthy &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/brains.html"&gt;brains&lt;/a&gt; include an extensive list of prescription &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/medications.html"&gt;medications&lt;/a&gt;, divided by class, based on the effect they are thought to have on brain chemistry. Antidepressants, mood stabilizers, &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/anti-psychotics.html"&gt;anti-psychotics&lt;/a&gt; and sedatives are prescribed to ostensibly correct imbalances in brain chemicals. If one &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/drug.html"&gt;drug&lt;/a&gt; doesn't work, more are added, perhaps with unintended consequences on behavior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A recent 69-month study identified 484 &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/drugs.html"&gt;drugs&lt;/a&gt; that accounted for 780,169 serious adverse events, including &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/violence.html"&gt;violence&lt;/a&gt;  and aggressive behavior. The drugs were associated with 387 reports of  homicide, 404 physical assaults, 27 cases indicating physical abuse, 896  homicidal ideation reports, and 223 cases described as violence-related  symptoms. Medications most strongly associated with violence(13) were  11 different &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/antidepressants.html"&gt;antidepressants&lt;/a&gt;,  particularly the serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ex: Lexapro, Paxil, and  Zoloft); 6 different sedative/ hypnotics (ex: Xanax and Clonipin) and 3  drugs given for ADHD, including Ritalin and Concerta. Additionally, the  anti-psychotics drugs, Seroquel, Zyprexa and Respirdol, commonly used  to treat ODD,(14)are among drugs that can &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/lead.html"&gt;lead&lt;/a&gt; to violence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Combined Effects&lt;/h1&gt;Significant  populations of children in the U.S. have been exposed to a combination  of chemicals, vaccines and multiple prescription medications - from  infancy through early adulthood. No studies have examined the effect  these components have individually on brain function, let alone in  combination. Mental health &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/experts.html"&gt;experts&lt;/a&gt;  try to convince us that the chemical exposures are so small they cannot  have negative effects. Same with vaccines. "Experts" espouse that  vaccinations are safe, effective, protective and harmless. No thought --  or research -- has been done to examine the potential problems that can  arise from the combined effect of four or more simultaneous  medications, vaccines and chemicals. There has been little effort by the  &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/government.html"&gt;government&lt;/a&gt; (FDA/CDC), the pharmaceutical &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/industry.html"&gt;industry&lt;/a&gt;  or doctors -- all of whom profit handsomely from massive drug and  vaccine use --- to evaluate the combined negative effects of these  exposures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brain inflammation has been the hallmark of severe reactions since the first vaccine -- smallpox. The pertussis &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vaccination.html"&gt;vaccination&lt;/a&gt;  can have profound effects on the developing brain of a child, leading  to permanent changes in behavior, personality, intelligence, emotional  stability, and physical ability. Virtually every year--from 1933 to the  mid-1980s-- a paper was published discussing the adverse effects of the  whole cell pertussis vaccine.(15) Instead of spending more money to  create new drugs and vaccines, we should demand that industry and  governments study the complications and injuries caused by the combined  use of the products we already have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Violence In America&lt;/h1&gt;I have received many emails and messages over the years from persons or &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/parents.html"&gt;parents&lt;/a&gt; who are planning to go to other countries for a vacation, on a mission trip or to participate in a lifestyle immersion &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/event.html"&gt;event&lt;/a&gt;. While many of the questions are about &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/travel.html"&gt;travel&lt;/a&gt;  vaccines (few of which are required anywhere in the world; they are  only recommended), I also get asked, "Do you think it is safe to go  there?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That question always makes me pause. I've had the good  fortune to have traveled throughout 57 countries over my life. Only on  rare occasions- and mostly when I was in an ill-advised part of town or  was unaccompanied in a rural area with wild animals I was unfamiliar  with - did I ever feel unsafe. In fact, as a general rule, I have felt  safer off the beaten path in a foreign country than in the downtown of  an unknown, mid-sized city after dark anywhere in the U.S.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/epidemic.html"&gt;epidemic&lt;/a&gt; of chronic physical &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/illness.html"&gt;illness&lt;/a&gt;, mental disability, &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/depression.html"&gt;depression&lt;/a&gt;  and violent behavior have escalated over the last 20 years and in one  way or another, is touching us all. Although economic and social  factors, biological variables and individual dietary practices certainly  play a role in overall &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/health.html"&gt;health&lt;/a&gt;  and behavior, the detrimental, combined effect of chemicals, drugs and  vaccines heaped into the brain from birth is a real concern and is  undoubtedly a huge contributor to the violence rising among America's  youths.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Based on survey data(16) from the U.S. Department of  Justice, roughly 5,340,000 violent crimes were committed in the United  States during 2008. This includes almost 16,300 murders of which, 76  percent, or nearly 11,000 incidents, were committed with firearms. Since  the Tucson &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/shootings.html"&gt;shootings&lt;/a&gt;,  calls for stricter licensing and gun registration, more vigorous  background checks prior to purchasing a gun, and a ban on assault  weapons are again on the table. The pros and cons of this debate reach  far beyond the scope of this discussion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But truly, guns don't  shoot people. And something obviously makes people shoot people. Perhaps  stopping the chain of events that result in medically unhealthy and  physically sick young brains is the place to start. We owe it to future  generations to clearly identify the effect these combined &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/toxic.html"&gt;toxic&lt;/a&gt;  compounds are having on brains of all ages. Even more importantly, we  need to heal these damaged brains and restore them back to health before  the epidemic of violence gets any worse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;REFERENCES&lt;/h1&gt;(1) &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/Los_Angeles.html"&gt;Los Angeles&lt;/a&gt;

People ignore words of caution and roll  up their sleeves to get a flu shot. It seems they think getting a  vaccine is the same as taking a multivitamin, and equally as benign. But  when serious adverse events occur, such as Guillain-Barre paralysis, a  seizure disorder or even a death, a jolt of reality lays bare just how  damaging a “simple vaccine” can be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;The  stranglehold of fear, perpetrated by those in white coats and by the  medical bureaucrats in Washington DC who take their marching orders from  pharma, is working hard to choke rationally thinking adults into  submission. I get emails almost every day that say something like, "I  bought your DVDs and your books...but I have a question: Should I get a  flu shot?" WHAT?@!&gt;!  My mouth drops. I have to clear my head and  find a way to say, "No, you should not get the flu shot", being cautious  to keep my tone void of sarcasm. That may seem harsh, but in very  turbulent times. Soft language and hand holding until people “get it” is  becoming increasingly more difficult.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;Being  in the business of waking people up to the hazards of vaccines  certainly has its ups and downs. A recent “up” was the public policy  debate held on November 10 at the University of Texas in Austin.  Sponsored by the Libertarian Longhorns, the Texas College Republicans  and a few other Texas health freedom groups, the discussion called, "Are  Vaccine Mandates Good or Bad for Public Health?" was open to the  general public. Interest in this timely topic was reflected by the  standing-room only attendance of the meeting. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;Speaking  in support of vaccination and school mandates was Tom Betz, MD, MPH,  Director of Region 7 for the Texas Department of Health Services.  Several of his health department colleagues joined him in the audience  but chose not to join him on the stage. I had the pleasure of being  teamed with Dawn Richardson, President and Co-founder of PROVE (Parents  Requesting Open Vaccine Education) in Austin, Texas and the Directory of  State Advocacy for the National Vaccine Information Center in Vienna,  Virginia. Our presentation was mostly about opposition to vaccine  mandates but we were able to address our opposition to vaccines in  general. Based on the hundreds of comments we received, the debate  (found all on YouTube) was well received and enlightening for all. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;All  three participants were given the questions to review prior to the  debate. There is so much to say about vaccines that preparation was  important to cover key points, almost as sound bites; only three short  minutes were allowed for each answer. Our very professional moderator,  Dr. Donna Campbell, allowed equal time for each side. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;During  the personal introductions, Dr. Campbell informed the audience that the  plan was to have two persons on each panel; but that Dr. Betz was the  only person from the Health Department who would agree to participate.  Prior to settling in on the stage, I had learned the reason why. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;Shaking  Dr. Betz’ hand, I thanked him for joining the discussion. He returned  the niceties with a slight shrug, confessing that, “No one else wanted  to do it.”  Surprised, I queried, “Why not? This is a great way to tell  everyone your message about vaccines.” My unspoken question was, “Why  didn’t the Health Department want to jump on the opportunity to bury  anti-vaccination ‘pseudo-science’, as you call it, once and for all, in  front of everyone?” He quietly replied, “We’ve done these types of  programs before; they never go well.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;It  seems pro-vaccine arguments are being soundly defeated, time after  time. And the real vaccine “pseudo-science” is being exposed for the  rhetoric it is: factoids crafted by public health officials from the WHO  and the CDC, and then regurgitated by under-informed medical  professionals to a naïve public. Funny how medical bureaucrats and  doctors are considered the "experts" when it is strangely obvious they  don't understand – and probably don’t even read – their own medical  literature.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;The  Austin debate was the next important step in exposing that the “science  of vaccination” isn’t so scientific after all. Vaccination has been  accepted as safe, effective and protective. The shots can be described  as a medical sacred cow, defined as “a medical procedure that is  unreasonably immune to criticism.”  Doctors and patients who question  vaccines are ridiculed and marginalized. It is heresy to suggest that  the status quo is wrong. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;Vaccine  adverse events are considered “rare”, so when reactions occur, steps  are taken to negate the association to the vaccine. Patients are  discredited, parents are dismissed. Doctors subject very ill persons to  thousands of dollars of inconclusive medical tests, rather than to  simply acknowledge – and rightfully assign causality – to the vaccine.  When a person reacts to penicillin or Paxil or any other drug, isn’t it  just blamed on the drug? Not so with vaccines.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;Going to Austin was an upbeat offset to other particularly disturbing news reported over the last few weeks about the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;H1N1, swine flu vaccine: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;p style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;• Several schools have vaccinated children without parental consent.&lt;br /&gt;• The growing list of reported miscarriages.&lt;br /&gt;• A teen athlete who is now crippled.&lt;br /&gt;• Two students and a teacher in China who died hours after getting the shot.&lt;br /&gt;• Children having hallucinations, and then committing suicide, after taking Tamiflu.&lt;br /&gt;• The  strange and virulent outbreak in the Ukraine, where the WHO has been  deafeningly silent about its findings – but knows that whatever is the  cause, vaccination is the answer.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;We  seem to regard germs the same way we think about terrorism: Random  attacks that can be deadly. All parties who promote vaccination hawk  this view, particularly those pushing both types of flu shots. Tens of  millions have been spent in the US on national advertising campaigns,  and even Sesame Street merchandising, to convince us that flu shots are  necessary to keep us well – and keep us alive. But perhaps we have it  backwards. Bugs can cause random, mostly benign attacks, particularly  among the healthy. But random, “deadly” attacks, with health  consequences that can show up years later? I’d worry more about the  vaccines. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;After  200 years, with our many advances in science and medicine, you would  think that someone could develop a method to protect babies and adults  from infectious disease other than injecting them with animal cells,  stray viruses, heavy metals and toxic chemicals. Why do we call this  health and protection? Until my dying breath I will never understand why  people resolutely defend – and demand – the right to inject themselves  and their children with these risky potients. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000055;"&gt;For  those who meet resistance when trying to warn family and friends of  vaccine risks, the only thing to do, really, is to keep spreading the  word. Don’t be discouraged. You never know who is listening and you  never know when the seeds will sprout. Focus on those who are waking up  and gratefully support them. The rest, well sadly, they may have to find  out the hard way what it feels like to get hit by that stray bullet.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-4247459600491203486?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/4247459600491203486/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2010/11/bullet-to-head.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/4247459600491203486'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/4247459600491203486'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2010/11/bullet-to-head.html' title='A Bullet to the Head'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-874455371415656179</id><published>2009-10-21T10:32:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-21T10:32:28.824-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Gary Null on Vaccines: New York State Assembly Hearing</title><content type='html'>YouTube&lt;br /&gt;October 21, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The date on these is 10-13-2009:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Prepare to have your world rocked. What you’re about to read here will leave you astonished, inspired and outraged all at the same time. You’re about to be treated to some little-known information demonstrating why seasonal flu vaccines are utterly worthless and why their continued promotion is based entirely on fabricated studies and medical mythology.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;  If the whole world knew what you’re about to read here, the vaccine industry would collapse overnight.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;table width="416" align="right" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt; &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt; &lt;td height="16"&gt;&lt;img src="http://freespeech.vo.llnwd.net/o25/pub/images/onepixel.gif" title="Flu vaccines revealed as the greatest quackery ever pushed in the history of medicine  Photo" alt="featured stories   Flu vaccines revealed as the greatest quackery ever pushed in the history of medicine " height="16"&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td width="16"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td width="400"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.infowars.com/images/vaccine7.jpg" alt="featured stories   Flu vaccines revealed as the greatest quackery ever pushed in the history of medicine " title="Flu vaccines revealed as the greatest quackery ever pushed in the history of medicine  Photo" width="399" border="1" height="265"&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td height="8"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td height="8"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class="photo-caption" width="400"&gt;Shoot up a few flu vaccines, rub your lucky rabbit’s foot, then spin around clockwise seven times and you, too, may be able to generate enough luck to avoid the flu this winter. &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td height="8"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt; &lt;p&gt; This information comes to you courtesy of a brilliant article published in &lt;em&gt;The Atlantic&lt;/em&gt; (November 2009). The article, written by Shannon Brownlee and Jeanne Lenzer, isn’t just brilliant; in my opinion it stands as the best article on &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/flu_vaccines.html"&gt;flu vaccines&lt;/a&gt; that has ever been published in the popular press. Entitled &lt;em&gt;Does the vaccine matter?&lt;/em&gt;, it presents some of the most eye-opening information you’ve probably ever read about the failure of flu &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vaccines.html"&gt;vaccines&lt;/a&gt;.  You can read the full article here: &lt;a href="http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/does-vaccine-matter.html" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/does-vaccine-matter.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Perhaps its impressive narrative shouldn’t be too surprising, though, since writer Shannon Brownlee is also the celebrated author of a phenomenal book on modern &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/medicine.html"&gt;medicine&lt;/a&gt; entitled &lt;em&gt;Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;font class="aptureLink " id="apture_prvw1"&gt;&lt;font style="background-position: right -1348px;" class="aptureLinkIcon"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a class="aptureLink snap_noshots" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1582345791"&gt;http://www.amazon.com/Overtreated-M…&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;) (&lt;a href="http://www.naturalpedia.com/book_Overtreated.html" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.naturalpedia.com/book_Ov…&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; While I’ve never done this before, I’m going to summarize this article point by point (along with some comments) so that you get the full force of what’s finally been put into print.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; This information is so important that I encourage you to share the following summary I’ve put together. Email it to family, friends and coworkers. Or post it on your blog or website (with a link and proper credit to both &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/NaturalNews.html"&gt;NaturalNews&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Atlantic&lt;/em&gt;, please). Get this information out to the world. &lt;strong&gt;People need to know this&lt;/strong&gt;, and so far the mainstream media has utterly failed to make this information known.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;  (The really good information begins after around a dozen bullet points, so be sure to keep &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/reading.html"&gt;reading&lt;/a&gt;…)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Does the vaccine matter?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;What follows is my point-by-point summary of this groundbreaking article by Shannon Brownlee, originally published in The Atlantic. My opinion statements are shown in brackets and italics.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Vaccination is the core strategy of the U.S. government’s plan to combat the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/swine_flu.html"&gt;swine flu&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The U.S. government has spent roughly $3 billion stockpiling vaccines and &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/anti-viral.html"&gt;anti-viral&lt;/a&gt; drugs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/CDC.html"&gt;CDC&lt;/a&gt; is recommending that 159 million Americans receive a swine &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/flu_vaccine.html"&gt;flu vaccine&lt;/a&gt; injection (as soon as possible).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• What if vaccines don’t work? More and more researchers are skeptical about whether they do.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Seasonal flu (that’s the regular flu) currently kills an estimated 36,000 people each year in the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/United_States.html"&gt;United States&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;em&gt;[But most people who die are already suffering from existing diseases such as &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/asthma.html"&gt;asthma&lt;/a&gt;.]&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Most “colds” aren’t really caused by &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/the_flu.html"&gt;the flu&lt;/a&gt; virus. As few as 7 or 8 percent (and at most, 50 percent) of colds have an &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/influenza.html"&gt;influenza&lt;/a&gt; origin. There are more than 200 viruses and pathogens that can cause “influenza-like” illnesses (and therefore be easily mistaken for the flu).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Viruses mutate with amazing speed, meaning that each year’s circulating influenza is genetically different from the previous year.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The vaccine for each upcoming &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/flu_season.html"&gt;flu season&lt;/a&gt; is formulated by &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/health.html"&gt;health&lt;/a&gt; experts taking a guess &lt;em&gt;[a wild guess, at times]&lt;/em&gt; about what strain of influenza might be most likely to circulate in the future.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The 1918 Spanish Flu infected roughly one-third of the world population and killed at least 40 million.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• In the U.S., the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology predicted that &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/H1N1.html"&gt;H1N1&lt;/a&gt; influenza could infect up to one-half of the U.S. population and kill 90,000 Americans.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Keep reading, the good part is coming...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Of those who have died from the Swine Flu in the U.S., roughly 70 percent were already diseased with some serious underlying condition such as asthma or AIDS.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Public health officials consider vaccines to be their first and best weapon against influenza. Vaccines helped eradicate smallpox and polio. &lt;em&gt;[I don't agree with that assessment. Vaccines did relatively little compared to improvements in public sanitation.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Each year, 100 million Americans get vaccinated, and vaccines remain “a staple” of &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/public_health.html"&gt;public health&lt;/a&gt; policy in the United States.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why the research is bogus&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Because researchers can’t exactly pin down who has influenza and who doesn’t, the research conducted on the effectiveness of vaccines simply calculates &lt;strong&gt;the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/death_rate.html"&gt;death rate&lt;/a&gt; from all causes&lt;/strong&gt; among those who take the vaccine vs. those who don’t. &lt;em&gt;[This includes deaths from accidents, heart attacks, medications, car wrecks and everything.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• These studies show a “dramatic difference” between the death rates of those who get the vaccines vs. those who don’t. People who get vaccinated have significantly lower death rates &lt;em&gt;[from ALL causes, and herein lies the problem...]&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Flu shot propaganda cites these studies, telling people that if they get their &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/flu_shots.html"&gt;flu shots&lt;/a&gt; every year, they will have a significantly reduced chance of dying. But this is extremely misleading…&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Critics question the logic of these studies: As it turns out, compared to the number of deaths from all causes, the number of people killed by influenza is &lt;strong&gt;quite small&lt;/strong&gt;. According to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, deaths from influenza account for — at most — &lt;strong&gt;10 percent&lt;/strong&gt; of the total deaths during the flu season (and this includes all indirect deaths aggravated by the flu).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• This brings up a hugely important dilemma: If influenza only accounts for roughly 10 percent of all deaths during the flu season, &lt;strong&gt;how could an influenza vaccine reduce total deaths by 50 percent?&lt;/strong&gt; (As is claimed by the vaccine manufacturers.) &lt;em&gt;[It doesn't add up. Even if the vaccines were 100% effective, they should only reduce the total death rates by 10%, given that only 10% of the total deaths are caused by influenza.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Here’s a direct quote from the story: Tom Jefferson, a physician based in Rome and the head of the Vaccines Field at the Cochrane Collaboration, a highly respected international network of researchers who appraise medical evidence, says: “For a vaccine to reduce mortality by 50 percent and up to 90 percent in some studies means it has to prevent deaths not just from influenza, but also from falls, fires, heart &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/disease.html"&gt;disease&lt;/a&gt;, strokes, and car accidents. &lt;strong&gt;That’s not a vaccine, that’s a miracle.&lt;/strong&gt;” [Emphasis added.]&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The failure of cohort studies&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• So how do the vaccine companies come up with this “50% reduction in death rate” statistic? Through &lt;strong&gt;cohort studies.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Cohort studies compare the death rates of large groups of people who received the vaccine to large groups of people who did NOT receive the vaccine. But there’s a fatal flaw in this approach: &lt;strong&gt;People self-select for vaccinations&lt;/strong&gt;. And what kind of people? As it turns out: People who take more precautions with their health!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• &lt;em&gt;[Thus, you automatically have a situation where the more health-cautious people are getting the vaccines because they THINK it's good for them. Meanwhile all the masses of people who don't give a darn about their health tend to skip the seasonal flu vaccines. And these people tend to not take very good of their health in lots of other ways. In other words, in terms of the masses, people who get vaccines are more likely to avoid junk food and live a more health-cautious lifestyle. &lt;strong&gt;This explains the differences in the death rates between the two groups!&lt;/strong&gt; It has nothing to do with the vaccine...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• There is extreme “cult-like” peer pressure put on &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/doctors.html"&gt;doctors&lt;/a&gt; and researchers to swallow the vaccine &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/mythology.html"&gt;mythology&lt;/a&gt; without question. Quoted from the story: Lisa Jackson, a physician and senior investigator with the Group Health Research Center, in Seattle, began wondering aloud to colleagues if maybe something was amiss with the estimate of 50 percent mortality reduction for people who get flu vaccine, the response she got sounded more like doctrine than science. “People told me, ‘No good can come of [asking] this,’” she says. “‘Potentially a lot of bad could happen’ for me professionally by raising any criticism that might dissuade people from getting vaccinated, because of course, ‘We know that vaccine works.’ This was the prevailing wisdom.” &lt;em&gt;[In other words, don't dare question the vaccine, and don't ask tough scientific questions because the vaccine industry runs on dogma, not science... and if you ask any questions, you might find yourself out of a job...]&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Here's where the really good part begins...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Lisa Jackson was not deterred. She and three other researchers began to study the widely-quoted vaccine statistics in an attempt to identify this “healthy user effect,” if any. They looked through eight years of medical data covering 72,000 people aged 65 or older and recorded who received flu shots and who didn’t. Then they compared the death rates for all causes &lt;strong&gt;outside the flu season&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The vaccine made no difference in mortality&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• What she found blows a hole right through the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vaccination.html"&gt;vaccination&lt;/a&gt; industry: She found that even outside the flu season, the death rate was 60 percent higher among those who did not get vaccines than among those who do. &lt;em&gt;[In other words, even when you take the flu season completely out of the equation, elderly people who don't get vaccines have other lifestyle factors that makes them far more likely to die from lots of other causes.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• She also found that this so-called “healthy user effect” &lt;strong&gt;explains the entire apparent benefit that continues to be attributed to vaccines&lt;/strong&gt;. This finding demonstrates that &lt;strong&gt;the flu vaccine may not have any beneficial effect whatsoever in reducing mortality.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• How well done were these particular studies? Quoted from the story: Jackson’s papers “are beautiful,” says Lone Simonsen, who is a professor of global health at George Washington University, in Washington, D.C., and an internationally recognized expert in influenza and vaccine epidemiology. “They are classic studies in epidemiology, they are so carefully done.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Many pro-vaccine experts simply refused to believe the results of this study &lt;em&gt;[because it conflicts with their existing belief in vaccine mythology]&lt;/em&gt;. The &lt;em&gt;Journal of the American Medical Association&lt;/em&gt; refused to publish her research, even stating, “To accept these results would be to say that the earth is flat!” &lt;em&gt;[Which just goes to show you how deeply ingrained the current vaccine mythology is in the minds of conventional medical practitioners. They simply cannot imagine that vaccines don't work, so they dismiss any evidence -- even GOOD evidence -- demonstrating that fact. This is what makes the vaccine industry a CULT rather than a science.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Jackson’s papers were finally published in 2006, in the &lt;em&gt;International Journal of Epidemiology&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;[And here's the really, really juicy part you can't miss...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vaccine shortage proves it never worked in the first place&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The history of the flu vaccine reveals some huge gaps in current vaccination mythology, essentially proving they don’t work:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• For example: In 2004, vaccine production was low and there was a shortage in vaccines (a 40 percent reduction in vaccinations). And yet &lt;strong&gt;mortality rates did not rise&lt;/strong&gt; during the flu season. &lt;em&gt;[Clearly, if vaccines actually worked, then a year when the vaccine wasn't even administered to 40% of the people who normally get it should have resulted in a huge and statistically significant increase in mortality. It should have spiked the death rates and filled the morgues... but it didn't. You know why? Because flu vaccines don't work in the first place.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• In the history of flu vaccines, there were &lt;strong&gt;two years&lt;/strong&gt; in which the formulated flu vaccine was a total mismatch to the widely-circulating influenza that made people sick. These years were &lt;strong&gt;1968&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;1997&lt;/strong&gt;. In both of these years, the vaccine was a completely mismatch for the circulating virus. In effect, &lt;strong&gt;nobody was vaccinated!&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;[Knowing this, if the vaccine itself was effective at reducing death rates, then we should have once again seen a huge spike in the death rates during these two years, right? Seriously, if the vaccine reduces death rates by 50% as is claimed by vaccine manufacturers, then these two years in which the vaccine completely missed the mark should have seen huge spikes in the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/winter.html"&gt;winter&lt;/a&gt; death rates, right? But what really happened was... nothing. Not a blip. Not a spike. Nothing. The death rates didn't rise at all.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• If vaccines really worked to save lives, then the more people you vaccinate, the lower death rates you should see, right? But &lt;strong&gt;that’s not the case&lt;/strong&gt;. Back in 1989, only 15 percent of over-65 people got vaccinated against the flu. But today, thanks to the big vaccine push, over 65 percent are vaccinated. And yet, amazingly, death rates among the elderly have not gone down during the flu season. In fact, they’ve gone up!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• When vaccine promoters (and CDC officials) are challenged about the “50 percent mortality reduction” myth, they invoke dogmatic language and attack the messenger. They are simply not willing to consider the possibility that &lt;strong&gt;flu vaccines simply don’t work.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Scientists who question the vaccine mythology are routinely shunned by the medical establishment. Tom Jefferson from the Cochrane Collaboration is an epidemiologist who questions the claimed benefits of flu vaccines. “The reaction [against Jefferson] has been so dogmatic and even hysterical that you’d think he was advocating stealing babies” said a colleague (Majumdar).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Jefferson is one of the world’s best-informed researchers on the flu vaccine. He leads a team of researchers who have examined hundreds of vaccine studies. To quote directly from the article: The vast majority of the studies were deeply flawed, says Jefferson. “Rubbish is not a scientific term, but I think it’s the term that applies [to these studies].”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;[And here's the real kicker that demonstrates why flu vaccines are useless...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Flu vaccines only “work” on people who don’t need them&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Vaccines supposedly “work” by introducing a weakened viral strain that causes the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/immune_system.html"&gt;immune system&lt;/a&gt; to respond by building influenza antibodies. However, as Jefferson points out, &lt;strong&gt;only healthy people produce a good antibody response to the vaccine&lt;/strong&gt;. And yet it is precisely the unhealthy people — the ones who have a poor immune response to the vaccine — who are most at risk of being harmed or killed by influenza. But the vaccines don’t work in them!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• &lt;em&gt;[In other words -- get this -- &lt;strong&gt;flu vaccines only "work" in people who don't need them!&lt;/strong&gt;]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• &lt;em&gt;[At the same time, it's also accurate to say that &lt;strong&gt;vaccines don't work at all in the very people who theoretically could benefit from them&lt;/strong&gt;. They only produce antibodies in people who already have such a strong immune response that they don't need the vaccine in the first place.]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Jefferson has called for randomized, placebo-controlled studies of the vaccines. But &lt;strong&gt;vaccine pushers are resisting these clinical trials!&lt;/strong&gt; They call the trials “unethical” &lt;em&gt;[but, in reality, they know that a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study would reveal the complete failure of flu vaccines, and they will do anything to prevent such a trial from happening. Don't you find it amazing that drug pushers and vaccine advocates claim they have "science" on their side, but they won't submit their vaccines to any real science at all?]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• &lt;em&gt;[No placebo-controlled studies have ever been conducted on flu vaccines because the industry says they would be "unethical." So where do these people get off claiming their vaccines work at all? The whole industry is based on fabricated statistics that are provably false... and the injections continue, year after year, with absolutely no benefit to public health whatsoever...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why anti-viral &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/drugs.html"&gt;drugs&lt;/a&gt; don’t work either&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• On the anti-viral drug front, hospitals are urged to hand out prescriptions for &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/Tamiflu.html"&gt;Tamiflu&lt;/a&gt; and Relenza to almost anyone who is symptomatic, whether they actually have swine flu or not. Concern is growing about the emergence of drug-resistant strains of swine flu. ” Flu can become resistant to Tamiflu in a matter of days…” says one researcher.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• In 2005, the U.S. government spent $1.8 billion to stockpile antiviral drugs for the military. This decision was made during the time when Donald Rumsfeld was Defense Secretary. Rumsfeld also held millions of dollars worth of stock in &lt;em&gt;Gilead Sciences&lt;/em&gt;, the company that holds the patent on Tamiflu. That company saw its stock price rise 50 percent following the government’s stockpiling purchase of Tamiflu.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The evidence supporting Tamiflu’s anti-viral benefits is flimsy at best. Even worse, as many as one in five children taking Tamiflu experience &lt;strong&gt;neuropsychiatric side effects&lt;/strong&gt; including hallucinations and suicidal behavior. &lt;em&gt;[In other words, your kid might be "tripping out" on some bad Tamiflu...]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Tamiflu is already linked to 50 deaths of children in Japan. Cause of death? Heart failure.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The evidence supporting Tamiflu is based on &lt;strong&gt;cohort studies&lt;/strong&gt;, just like the vaccines, which may distort or exaggerate the apparent benefits of the drug.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Even supporters of Tamiflu admit it’s never been proven to help. A CDC official says that randomized trials to determine the effectiveness of Tamiflu would be “unethical.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• In all, neither vaccines nor anti-viral drugs have any reliable evidence that they work against influenza at all. Both are being promoted based entirely on pure wishful thinking, not hard science.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The history of pharmaceutical medicine is littered with other examples of drugs that doctors “knew worked” but which later turned out to harm or kill patients. &lt;em&gt;[All along, the proper scientific studies were avoided because, hey, if you already know everything, why bother conducting any actual science to prove anything?]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The hype about vaccines provides a false sense of security, taking away attention from other things that really do work to prevent influenza deaths. That’s why, except for “hand washing,” virtually no advice has been offered to the public on preventing influenza beyond vaccines and anti-viral drugs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Concluding quote from the author: “By being afraid to do the proper studies now, we may be condemning ourselves to using treatments based on illusion and faith rather than sound science.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A recap of these astonishing points&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Let’s recap what we just learned here (because it’s just mind-boggling):&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• There have been no placebo-controlled studies on flu vaccines because the vaccine pushers say such clinical trials would be “unethical.” Thus, there is actually no hard scientific evidence that they work at all.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The “50 percent reduction in mortality” statistic that’s tossed around by vaccine pushers is a total fabrication based on “rubbish” studies (”cohort” studies).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Scrutinizing the existing studies that claim to support vaccines reveals that &lt;strong&gt;flu vaccines simply don’t work&lt;/strong&gt;. And when vaccines aren’t available or the formulation is wrong, there’s no spike in death rates, indicating quite conclusively that these vaccines offer no reduction in mortality.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• Flu vaccines only produce antibodies in people who don’t need vaccines. At the same time, they fail to produce antibodies in people who are most vulnerable to flu. Thus, vaccines only work in people who don’t need them.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;• The entire flu vaccine industry is run like a cult, with dogma ruling over science. Anyone who asks tough, scientific questions is immediately branded a heretic. No one is allowed to question the status quo. (So much for “evidence-based medicine,” huh?)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;As you can see from all this, &lt;strong&gt;the flu vaccine is pure &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/quackery.html"&gt;quackery&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Those who administer vaccines are, by inference, QUACKS. They claim to have scientific minds, and yet they are the most gullible of all: &lt;strong&gt;They will believe almost anything if it’s published in a medical journal&lt;/strong&gt;, even if it’s complete quackery.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Today, countless doctors, nurses and pharmacists across North &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/America.html"&gt;America&lt;/a&gt; and around the world are pushing a medically worthless, scientifically-fabricated chemical injection that offers absolutely no benefit to public health… and yet they’re convinced it’s highly effective! It just goes to show you how easy it is to brainwash people in the field of conventional medicine.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;They’ve abandoned real science long ago, you know. Now the whole industry is just run on the momentum of dogmatic arrogance and the illusion of authority. From the CDC and FDA on down to the local &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/pharmacist.html"&gt;pharmacist&lt;/a&gt; at the corner store, the American medical system is run by some seemingly smart people who have been brainwashed into become full-fledged members of the &lt;em&gt;Cult of Pharmacology&lt;/em&gt; where vaccine mythology overrules real science.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The vaccine industry is perhaps the greatest medical scam ever pulled off in the history of the world. Don’t fall for it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;And don’t forget to read the full article in &lt;em&gt;The Atlantic&lt;/em&gt; by Shannon Brownlee: &lt;a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200911/brownlee-h1n1" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/2009…&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why people get vaccinated: Superstition&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Reading everything you’ve read here, you might wonder: Why do people get vaccinated at all?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The reason is because &lt;strong&gt;no one knows whether they work or not&lt;/strong&gt;, so people keep on taking them “just in case.” It’s exactly the kind of superstitious ritual that “science-minded skeptics” rail against on a regular basis… unless, of course, it involves their vaccines, in which case superstition is all okay.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;People take vaccines for the same reason they rub a rabbit’s foot. It’s a &lt;em&gt;good luck ritual&lt;/em&gt; that may or may not work, but no one really knows. And besides, what’s the harm in it? (They think…)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Personally, I’d rather get some vitamin D and have a healthy, functioning immune system. But for those who prefer to play the lotto, gamble in Vegas or bet their lives on medical superstitions, flu vaccines are readily available.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So what are you waiting for? Shoot up a few flu vaccines, rub your lucky rabbit’s foot, then spin around clockwise seven times and you, too, may be able to generate enough luck to avoid the flu this winter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-6354594625090084082?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/6354594625090084082/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/flu-vaccines-revealed-as-greatest.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/6354594625090084082'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/6354594625090084082'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/flu-vaccines-revealed-as-greatest.html' title='Flu vaccines revealed as the greatest quackery ever pushed in the history of medicine'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-3853637032961586729</id><published>2009-10-14T11:02:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-14T11:05:57.105-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Does the Vaccine Matter?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span class="hankpym"&gt;S&lt;/span&gt;hannon &lt;span class="hankpym"&gt;B&lt;/span&gt;rownlee&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span class="hankpym"&gt;J&lt;/span&gt;eanne &lt;span class="hankpym"&gt;L&lt;/span&gt;enzer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200911/brownlee-h1n1"&gt;The Atlantic&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;October 14, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 289px;" src="http://www.theatlantic.com/images/issues/200911/brownlee-flu-vert.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span class="drop"&gt;D&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="text-transform: uppercase;"&gt;rive too fast &lt;/span&gt;along Red Lion Road, beside Philadelphia’s Northeast Airport, and you will miss the low-rise cement building where the biotech company MedImmune has been quietly pumping out swine flu vaccine at about a million doses a week. Through the summer and fall, workers wearing protective gear that covered them from head to toe brewed up batches of live, genetically modified flu virus. Robots then injected tiny doses of virus-laden fluid into glass vials, which were mounted into nasal spritzers, labeled, and readied for shipment at the direction of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in Atlanta, which is helping to coordinate the nation’s pandemic-preparedness plan. In the most ambitious vaccination program the nation has mounted since the anti-polio campaign in the 1950s, the federal government has commissioned MedImmune and four other companies to produce enough vaccine to cover the entire U.S. population.   &lt;p&gt;Vaccination is central to the government’s plan for preventing deaths from swine flu. The CDC has recommended that some 159 million adults and children receive either a swine flu shot or a dose of MedImmune’s nasal vaccine this year. Shots are offered in doctors’ offices, hospitals, airports, pharmacies, schools, polling places, shopping malls, and big-box stores like Wal-Mart. In August, New York state required all health-care workers to get both seasonal and swine flu shots. To further protect the populace, the federal government has spent upwards of $3billion stockpiling millions of doses of antiviral drugs like Tamiflu—which are being used both to prevent swine flu and to treat those who fall ill. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But what if everything we think we know about fighting influenza is wrong? What if flu vaccines do not protect people from dying—particularly the elderly, who account for 90 percent of deaths from seasonal flu? And what if the expensive antiviral drugs that the government has stockpiled over the past few years also have little, if any, power to reduce the number of people who die or are hospitalized? The U.S. government—with the support of leaders in the public-health and medical communities—has put its faith in the power of vaccines and antiviral drugs to limit the spread and lethality of swine flu. Other plans to contain the pandemic seem anemic by comparison. Yet some top flu researchers are deeply skeptical of both flu vaccines and antivirals. Like the engineers who warned for years about the levees of New Orleans, these experts caution that our defenses may be flawed, and quite possibly useless against a truly lethal flu. And that unless we are willing to ask fundamental questions about the science behind flu vaccines and antiviral drugs, we could find ourselves, in a bad epidemic, as helpless as the citizens of New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p icap="on"&gt;   &lt;span class="drop"&gt;T&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="text-transform: uppercase;"&gt;he term influenza, &lt;/span&gt;which dates back to the Middle Ages, is taken from the Italian word for occult or astral influence. Then as now, flu seemed to appear out of nowhere each winter, debilitating or killing large numbers of people, only to vanish in the spring. Today, seasonal flu is estimated to kill about 36,000 people in the United States each year, and half a million worldwide. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Yet the flu, in many important respects, remains mysterious. Determining how many deaths it really causes, or even who has it, is no simple matter. We think we have the flu anytime we fall ill with an ailment that brings on headache, malaise, fever, coughing, sneezing, and that achy feeling as if we’ve been sleeping on a bed of rocks, but researchers have found that at most half, and perhaps as few as 7 or 8 percent, of such cases are actually caused by an influenza virus in any given year. More than 200 known viruses and other pathogens can cause the suite of symptoms known as “influenza-like illness”; respiratory syncytial virus, bocavirus, coronavirus, and rhinovirus are just a few of the bugs that can make a person feel rotten. And depending on the season, in up to two-thirds of the cases of flu-like illness, no cause at all can be found. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Nobody knows precisely why we are much more likely to catch the flu in the winter months than at other times of the year. Perhaps it’s because flu viruses flourish in cool temperatures and are killed by exposure to sunlight. Or maybe it’s because in winter, people spend more time indoors, where a sneeze or a cough can more easily spread a virus to others. What is certain is that influenza viruses mutate with amazing speed, so each flu season sees slightly different genetic versions of the viruses that infected people the year before. Every year, the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention collect data from 94 nations on the flu viruses that circulated the previous year, and then make an educated guess about which viruses are likely to circulate in the coming fall. Based on that information, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issues orders to manufacturers in February for a vaccine that includes the three most likely strains. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Every once in a while, however, a very different bug pops up and infects far more people than the normal seasonal flu variants do. It is these novel viruses that are responsible for pandemics, defined by the World Health Organization as events that occur when “a new influenza virus appears against which the human population has no immunity” and which can sweep around the world in a very short time. The worst flu pandemic in recorded history was the “Spanish flu” of 1918–19, at the end of World WarI. A third of the world’s population was infected, with at least 40million and perhaps as many as 100million people dying—more than were killed in World Wars I and II combined. (Some scholars suggest that one reason World WarI ended was that so many soldiers were sick or dying from flu.) Since then, two other flu pandemics have occurred, in 1957 and 1968, neither of which was particularly lethal. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In August, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology projected that this fall and winter, the swine flu, H1N1, could infect anywhere between one-third and one-half of the U.S. population and could kill as many as 90,000 Americans, two and a half times the number killed in a typical flu season. But precisely how deadly, or even how infectious, this year’s H1N1 pandemic will turn out to be won’t be known until it’s over. Most reports coming from the Southern Hemisphere in late August (the end of winter there) suggested that the swine flu is highly infectious, but not particularly lethal. For example, Australian officials estimated they would finish winter with under 1,000 swine flu deaths—fewer than the usual 1,500 to 3,000 from seasonal flu. Among those who have died in the U.S., about 70 percent were already suffering from congenital conditions like cerebral palsy or underlying illnesses such as cancer, asthma, or &lt;span style="text-transform: uppercase;"&gt;AIDS&lt;/span&gt;, which make people more vulnerable.  &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Public-health officials consider vaccine their most formidable defense against the pandemic—indeed, against any flu—and on the surface, their faith seems justified. Vaccines developed over the course of the 20th century slashed the death rates of nearly a dozen infectious diseases, such as smallpox and polio, and vaccination became one of medicine’s most potent weapons. Influenza virus was first identified in the 1930s, and by the mid-1940s, researchers had produced a vaccine that was given to soldiers in World WarII. The U.S. government got serious about promoting flu vaccine after the 1957 flu pandemic brought home influenza’s continuing potential to cause widespread illness and death. Today, flu vaccine is a staple of public-health policy; in a normal year, some 100 million Americans get vaccinated. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But while vaccines for, say, whooping cough and polio clearly and dramatically reduced death rates from those diseases, the impact of flu vaccine has been harder to determine. Flu comes and goes with the seasons, and often it does not kill people directly, but rather contributes to death by making the body more susceptible to secondary infections like pneumonia or bronchitis. For this reason, researchers studying the impact of flu vaccination typically look at deaths from all causes during flu season, and compare the vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Such comparisons have shown a dramatic difference in mortality between these two groups: study after study has found that people who get a flu shot in the fall are about half as likely to die that winter—from any cause—as people who do not. Get your flu shot each year, the literature suggests, and you will dramatically reduce your chance of dying during flu season. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Yet in the view of several vaccine skeptics, this claim is suspicious on its face. Influenza causes only a small minority of all deaths in the U.S., even among senior citizens, and even after adding in the deaths to which flu might have contributed indirectly. When researchers from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases included all deaths from illnesses that flu aggravates, like lung disease or chronic heart failure, they found that flu accounts for, at most, 10 percent of winter deaths among the elderly. So how could flu vaccine possibly reduce total deaths by half? Tom Jefferson, a physician based in Rome and the head of the Vaccines Field at the Cochrane Collaboration, a highly respected international network of researchers who appraise medical evidence, says: “For a vaccine to reduce mortality by 50 percent and up to 90 percent in some studies means it has to prevent deaths not just from influenza, but also from falls, fires, heart disease, strokes, and car accidents. That’s not a vaccine, that’s a miracle.” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The estimate of 50 percent mortality reduction is based on “cohort studies,” which compare death rates in large groups, or cohorts, of people who choose to be vaccinated, against death rates in groups who don’t. But people who choose to be vaccinated may differ in many important respects from people who go unvaccinated—and those differences can influence the chance of death during flu season. Education, lifestyle, income, and many other “confounding” factors can come into play, and as a result, cohort studies are notoriously prone to bias. When researchers crunch the numbers, they typically try to factor out variables that could bias the results, but, as Jefferson remarks, “you can adjust for the confounders you know about, not for the ones you don’t,” and researchers can’t always anticipate what factors are likely to be important to whether a patient dies from flu. There is always the chance that they might miss some critical confounder that renders their results entirely wrong. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;When Lisa Jackson, a physician and senior investigator with the Group Health Research Center, in Seattle, began wondering aloud to colleagues if maybe something was amiss with the estimate of 50 percent mortality reduction for people who get flu vaccine, the response she got sounded more like doctrine than science. “People told me, ‘No good can come of [asking] this,’” she says. “‘Potentially a lot of bad could happen’ for me professionally by raising any criticism that might dissuade people from getting vaccinated, because of course, ‘We know that vaccine works.’ This was the prevailing wisdom.” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Nonetheless, in 2004, Jackson and three colleagues set out to determine whether the mortality difference between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated might be caused by a phenomenon known as the “healthy user effect.” They hypothesized that on average, people who get vaccinated are simply healthier than those who don’t, and thus less liable to die over the short term. People who don’t get vaccinated may be bedridden or otherwise too sick to go get a shot. They may also be more likely to succumb to flu or any other illness, because they are generally older and sicker. To test their thesis, Jackson and her colleagues combed through eight years of medical data on more than 72,000 people 65 and older. They looked at who got flu shots and who didn’t. Then they examined which group’s members were more likely to die of any cause when it was &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; flu season.  &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Jackson’s findings showed that &lt;i&gt;outside of flu season&lt;/i&gt;, the baseline risk of death among people who did not get vaccinated was approximately 60 percent higher than among those who did, lending support to the hypothesis that on average, healthy people chose to get the vaccine, while the “frail elderly” didn’t or couldn’t. In fact, the healthy-user effect explained the entire benefit that other researchers were attributing to flu vaccine, suggesting that the vaccine itself might not reduce mortality at all. Jackson’s papers “are beautiful,” says Lone Simonsen, who is a professor of global health at George Washington University, in Washington, D.C., and an internationally recognized expert in influenza and vaccine epidemiology. “They are classic studies in epidemiology, they are so carefully done.” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The results were also so unexpected that many experts simply refused to believe them. Jackson’s papers were turned down for publication in the top-ranked medical journals. One flu expert who reviewed her studies for the &lt;i&gt;Journal of the American Medical Association&lt;/i&gt; wrote, “To accept these results would be to say that the earth is flat!” When the papers were finally published in 2006, in the less prominent &lt;i&gt;International Journal of  Epidemiology&lt;/i&gt;, they were largely ignored by doctors and public-health officials. “The answer I got,” says Jackson, “was not the right answer.” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-3853637032961586729?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/3853637032961586729/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/does-vaccine-matter.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/3853637032961586729'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/3853637032961586729'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/does-vaccine-matter.html' title='Does the Vaccine Matter?'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-6715097048607737858</id><published>2009-10-12T17:14:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-12T17:25:04.794-07:00</updated><title type='text'>VeriChip shares jump after H1N1 patent license win</title><content type='html'>&lt;pre&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/rbssTechMediaTelecomNews/idUSBNG49295720090921"&gt;Reuters&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;October 12, 2009&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 104px; height: 104px;" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:TQoZC_dmHWC_BM:http://healthcare.zdnet.com/images/verichip1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;pre&gt;Shares of VeriChip Corp (&lt;span style="" id="symbol_CHIP.O_0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/overview?symbol=CHIP.O"&gt;CHIP.O&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;tripled after the company said it had been granted an exclusive&lt;br /&gt;license to two patents, which will help it to develop&lt;br /&gt;implantable virus detection systems in humans.&lt;/pre&gt;  &lt;pre&gt;The patents, held by VeriChip partner Receptors LLC, relate&lt;br /&gt;to biosensors that can detect the H1N1 and other viruses, and&lt;br /&gt;biological threats such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus&lt;br /&gt;aureus, VeriChip said in a statement.&lt;/pre&gt;  &lt;pre&gt;The technology will combine with VeriChip's implantable&lt;br /&gt;radio frequency identification devices to develop virus triage&lt;br /&gt;detection systems.&lt;/pre&gt;  &lt;pre&gt;The triage system will provide multiple levels of&lt;br /&gt;identification -- the first will identify the agent as virus or&lt;br /&gt;non-virus, the second level will classify the virus and alert&lt;br /&gt;the user to the presence of pandemic threat viruses and the&lt;br /&gt;third level will identify the precise pathogen, VeriChip said&lt;br /&gt;in a white paper published May 7, 2009.&lt;/pre&gt;  &lt;pre&gt;Shares of VeriChip were up 186 percent at $3.28 Monday late&lt;br /&gt;afternoon trade on Nasdaq.

The &lt;a href="http://www.verichipcorp.com/Veri_Med_Health_Link.html"&gt;VeriMed Health Link homepage&lt;/a&gt; describes the chip:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;… a tiny, passive microchip (the nation’s first and only microchip cleared for patient identification by the U.S. Food &amp;amp; Drug Administration) and a secure, private online database that links you to your personal health record. Your Health Link is always with you and cannot be lost or stolen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;That database can be accessed by doctors and nurses:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip is inserted just under the skin and contains only a unique, 16-digit identifier. The microchip itself does not contain any other data other than this unique electronic ID, nor does it contain any Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking capabilities. And unlike conventional forms of identification, the Health Link cannot be lost, stolen, misplaced, or counterfeited. It is safe, secure, reversible, and always with you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;But VeriChip’s ambitions don’t end there, as this diagram indicates:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://i.bnet.com/blogs/healthlink.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4618" title="healthlink" src="http://i.bnet.com/blogs/healthlink.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://i.bnet.com/blogs/healthlink.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4618" title="healthlink" src="http://i.bnet.com/blogs/healthlink.jpg" alt="" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;(Click to enlarge.)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Yes, it shows your Health Link chip linked to &lt;strong&gt;Google, Microsoft&lt;/strong&gt;, employers and insurers. The company also sees the VeriMed Health Link linked to your “identity security services,” through a separate VeriChip product, PositiveID. &lt;a href="http://i.bnet.com/blogs/positive_id_sept_2009_rodm_conference_final.pdf"&gt;This slide show states&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;PositiveID puts people in control of their personal health records and financial information, bridging the gap between secure medical records and identity security&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;PositiveID dovetails with Health Link:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cross marketing opportunities: cross-sell the NationalCreditReport.com customer base the Health Link personal health record and vice-versa&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Differentiates PositiveID as the only personal health record that offers identity theft protection&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;It’s a future in which your doctor tags you like a dog with a microchip that allows anyone with the right privileges to look at your medical records, credit history, social security number (see slide 6), and anything else that stems from that.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Suddenly, storing medical records on paper in locked cabinets inside a single doctor’s office starts to look like something we may not want to rush to give up.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Image: The VeriMed Health Link chip from &lt;a href="http://www.verichipcorp.com/Veri_Med_Health_Link.html"&gt;VeriChip’s web page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-7683514426410320092?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/7683514426410320092/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/microchip-implant-to-link-your-health.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/7683514426410320092'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/7683514426410320092'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/microchip-implant-to-link-your-health.html' title='Microchip Implant to Link Your Health Records, Credit History, Social Security'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-543965960385274977</id><published>2009-10-08T10:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-08T11:04:16.970-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Military to Get Mandatory Swine Flu Shots</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="bold"&gt;&lt;span class="redtext"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33079725/ns/health-swine_flu/"&gt;MSNBC&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;October 8, 2009&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 140px;" src="http://themostimportantnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/U.S.-military-mandatory-swine-flu-vaccine.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span class="bold"&gt;&lt;span class="redtext"&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/span&gt; "Because I can compel people to get the shots, larger numbers will have the vaccine," said Renuart, commander of U.S. Northern Command.

The Argentina Federation of Health Professionals (Fesprosa) asserts that children of poor families are being used for the trials, and parents are bullied into signing consent forms. The trials are still continuing, even though at least 12 infants have already died.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fesprosa maintains that there is no state control and that there are no ethical requirements. This doesn't come as any surprise to those who know how these kinds of human trials usually occur. Generally speaking, vaccine trials are conducted in Third World countries on poor people who often feel trapped into participating in human &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/health.html"&gt;health&lt;/a&gt; experiments in order to receive medical care or other necessities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One doesn't find these kinds of experiments going on in places like the United States or Europe, where names and faces of victims would surely get out into the media and cause a big stir. Instead, the &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/infants.html"&gt;infants&lt;/a&gt; of impoverished people, who often can't even read or write, are used in the trials. Apparently, the lead investigator of the trial didn't think it was any big concern that over 12 babies have already died since deaths from respiratory illnesses caused by the pneumococcal bacteria kill even more people. Of course, this is no comfort to the poor mothers whose babies are sacrificed for the monetary gains of a pharmaceutical giant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The great aunt of one of the victims alleges that once children begin to participate in these trials, there is no way out. Mothers who try to remove their children from the trials are browbeaten into submission, being told that their children will never receive any other &lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vaccines.html"&gt;vaccines&lt;/a&gt; if removed before a trial is completed. Imagine being a poor, uneducated mother and having to make such a choice. (Remember, too, that some can't even read the consent forms they are signing!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyone who hasn't seen &lt;a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387131/"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Constant Gardener&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, a film starring Ralph Fiennes, truly needs to do so. While the story is fictional, the viewer is able to get a better feel for how drug and vaccine trials are conducted. Some particularly touching words are spoken in the movie by the character "Ham," who is discussing the deaths that happen in trials sponsored by pharmaceutical companies when he states: "And from those deaths we derive the benefits of civilization, benefits we can afford so easily... because those lives were bought so cheaply." Unfortunately, all consumers of drugs and vaccines share some of the responsibility for the deaths and injuries of these drug trial victims. While it isn't always easy to do the right thing, sometimes one just has to make the moral choice to stand up for these innocent children and say "no" to Big Pharma.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-6752532505859853298?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/6752532505859853298/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/glaxosmithkline-continues-vaccine-trial.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/6752532505859853298'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/6752532505859853298'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/10/glaxosmithkline-continues-vaccine-trial.html' title='GlaxoSmithKline Continues Vaccine Trial Even After 12 Babies Die'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-5989469798617953226</id><published>2009-10-06T16:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-06T16:05:48.371-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Doctors Concerned FluMist Vaccine Could Spread Live H1N1 Virus</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Paul Joseph Watson&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://prisonplanet.com/"&gt;Prison Planet.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday, October 6, 2009&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.prisonplanet.com/images/october2009/061009top2.jpg" alt="Doctors Concerned FluMist Vaccine Could Spread Live H1N1 Virus 061009top2" title="Doctors Concerned FluMist Vaccine Could Spread Live H1N1 Virus Photo" width="400" border="1" height="260" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Doctors and hospitals are expressing concern that the FluMist vaccine could endanger people because it contains live H1N1 virus, unlike the injectable shot that contains antibodies. With no less than 60 per cent of the U.S. population immunodeficient in one way or another, could FluMist be a pandemic waiting to happen?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;Hospitals in Colorado and elsewhere are shunning the FluMist H1N1 vaccine, a nasal spray that contains live swine flu virus, because of fears it could infect people with weakened immune systems and underlying health conditions.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;“Several metro area hospitals said they won’t be  taking the FluMist because they don’t want to endanger patients,” &lt;a href="http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/21212055/detail.html"&gt;reports  TheDenverChannel.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;Lois VanFleet, infection prevention specialist at Exempla Good Samaritan Medical Center in Lafayette, expressed concern that doctors and nurses who inhaled the live virus could infect patients whose immune systems are compromised.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;However, H1N1 FluMist is being rolled out nationwide from this week, including at “drive-through clinics” across the country where the nasal spray is administered while people sit in their cars with their window wide open (see top picture).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;The live virus contained in the nasal spray is  weakened but it can be transmitted from person to person for up to three  weeks.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flixya.com/post/wap/971116/Nasal-Spray_Flu_Vaccine_Can_Make_You_Sick"&gt;According  to studies&lt;/a&gt;, “the odds of transmitting the virus after receiving the nasal spray are about 2.5 percent,” with children the most susceptible.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;The nasal spray is being rolled out on a mass  scale &lt;em&gt;before&lt;/em&gt; the widespread introduction of the injectable vaccine. Some fear that the nasal spray will contribute to a wider pandemic, which will then provide governments with the crisis they need to make the injectable vaccine mandatory.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;“This would accelerate the move to a state of emergency, cripple the US health care system, and would result in the “need” to have military, eventually UN troops, take control,” notes &lt;a href="http://www.theflucase.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;view=article&amp;amp;id=669:emergency-update-nasal-spray-has-live-virus-will-spread-disease&amp;amp;catid=41:highlighted-news&amp;amp;Itemid=105&amp;amp;lang=en"&gt;TheFluCase.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Also, all public assemblies, including courts, would be prohibited, thereby satisfying a condition for the imposition of martial law, mass quarantines, and forced vaccinations for the rest of us.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/drug-information/DR601501/DSECTION=side-effects"&gt;According to the Mayo Clinic&lt;/a&gt;, the swine flu scandal of 1976, when more people died from the vaccine than the actual virus,  was what caused the live virus to be removed from future vaccines. However, it is admitted that FluMist contains the live virus.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;“It has been documented that the live viruses from the vaccine can be shed (and potentially spread into the community) from recipient children for up to 21 days, and even longer from adults. Viral shedding also puts breastfeeding infants at risk if the mother has been given FluMist,” writes &lt;a href="http://www.y2khealthanddetox.com/flumist.html"&gt;Dr. Sherri Tenpenny&lt;/a&gt;,  one of the most outspoken physicians in the country on the hazards of vaccines  and vaccination.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;FluMist’s own package insert reads as follows, “FluMist® recipients should avoid close contact with immunocompromised individuals for at least 21 days.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“The warning is specifically directed toward those living in the same household with an immunocompromised person, but the on-going release of live viruses throughout the community may be a significant risk to everyone who has a weak, or weakened, immune system,” writes Tenpenny, pointing out that if one takes into account a plethora of health conditions that could be classified as contributing to immunodeficiency, as much as 60% of the entire population could be considered to be “chemically immunosuppressed.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“An ever greater concern about FluMist is the contents within the vaccine. Each 0.5ml of the formula contains 10 6.5-7.5 particles of live, attenuated influenza virus. That means that between 10 million and 100 million viral particles will be forcefully injected into the nostrils when administered. The viral strain was developed by serial passage through “specific pathogen-free primary chick kidney cells” and then grown in “specific pathogen-free eggs.” That means that the culture media was free of pathogens that were specifically tested for, but not a culture that was necessarily “pathogen-free.” The risk that the vaccine may contain contaminant avian retroviruses still remains,” warns Tenpenny.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;One of the pharmaceutical companies developing nasal spray  vaccines is Baxter International, who were caught earlier this year &lt;a href="http://www.torontosun.com/news/canada/2009/02/27/8560781.html"&gt;releasing  batches of vaccines from a lab in Austria that were contaminated&lt;/a&gt; live bird  flu virus, otherwise known as H5N1.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The video below outlines further concerns regarding FluMist  and the nasal spray vaccine in general.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width="320" height="265"&gt;&lt;param

type='text'>CDC Drafts “Isolation Order” for H1N1</title><content type='html'>Kurt Nimmo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com"&gt;Infowars&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;September 28, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The following draft of an “isolation order” was discovered on the  &lt;a href="http://www2a.cdc.gov/phlp/docs/Isolation%20Order%20v3.pdf"&gt;CDC’s website&lt;/a&gt;. It is a template for state and local officials to impose quarantines and what would effectively be martial law.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Your illness [as determined by state and local officials] requires that you be isolated and requires further public health investigation and monitoring.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Failure to obey will result in imprisonment without bail prior to trial and the possiblity of a two year prison term.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other words, according to this document, officials can impose quarantine without evidence that somebody is actually infected with a virus that is now negligible at best. It may also be used to quarantine potentially millions of people suffering from any number of illnesses — or not suffering from any disease at the discretion of the state — that have nothing to do with H1N1. It is basically a carte blanche for martial law under the cover of protecting the public from a communicable disease that is demonstrably a &lt;a href="http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_4631.shtml"&gt;manufactured and weaponized threat&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border='0' src='http://www.infowars.com/images/isolation.png'/&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-3490907819496630623?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/3490907819496630623/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/cdc-drafts-isolation-order-for-h1n1.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/3490907819496630623'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/3490907819496630623'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/cdc-drafts-isolation-order-for-h1n1.html' title='CDC Drafts “Isolation Order” for H1N1'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-8093077574053120011</id><published>2009-09-29T07:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T07:47:30.332-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Mandatory Vaccines Refused By Nurses In New York</title><content type='html'>Matt Love&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com"&gt;The Truth Patriot&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;September 29, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are a health care worker within the state of NY, please look into the following link:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.meetup.com/Albany-Campaign-for-Liberty/calendar/11402788/"&gt;http://www.meetup.com/Albany-Campaign-for-Liberty/calendar/11402788/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are not alone...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/A7wBwOEsw2I&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/A7wBwOEsw2I&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-8093077574053120011?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/8093077574053120011/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/mandatory-vaccines-refused-by-nurses-in.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/8093077574053120011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/8093077574053120011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/mandatory-vaccines-refused-by-nurses-in.html' title='Mandatory Vaccines Refused By Nurses In New York'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-2251631499201107300</id><published>2009-09-25T01:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-16T19:49:05.017-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Swine Flu Vaccines to contain PER.C6 (yes, that is in fact aborted fetal tissue)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Matt Love&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com/"&gt;The Truth Patriot&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;September 14, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It usually takes 6 to 9 months to develop a flu vaccine AFTER the flu strain has been identified. The traditional process is to inject viral material into chicken eggs and then to harvest the antibodies that are produced. This is a time intensive process, and a way to speed up the production of vaccine has been sought, and has been found.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The foremost way to streamline the process involves taking human cells, instead of eggs, and using them as the medium in which to grow the viral material to produce the desired vaccine. In looking into this new process, I found that one company in particular has a line of cellular material that they license to other major pharmaceutical companies so that they can create pharmaceutical products. These products include flu vaccines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The company is called Crucell. It actually has multiple lines of human cell material, but one in particular, called PER.C6, is marketed to be used to develop vaccines. What the company does not announce publicly is that the cell line was derived from an aborted baby.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;PER.C6 cells are derived from embryonic retina cells of an aborted fetus. These cells were taken from the eye of a baby aborted in 1972 and frozen. In 1985 they were unfrozen and used to start this cell line. This aborted baby’s cells have been reproduced and distributed to other pharmaceutical companies to be injected into millions of people’s bodies. This cell line is pronounced as “Percy Six.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The United States Food and Drug Administration is aware of the source of this cell line. In 2001 the FDA held meetings at which testimony was given concerning PER.C6.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Crucell states on their website that the PER.C6 cell line has been marketed to other pharmaceutical companies and has been used in a number of vaccines. According to the company’s website, “PER.C6® technology is being used in Crucell’s programs for the development of vaccines against tuberculosis, malaria, influenza, Ebola and Marburg.” Added to this list is now H1N1 swine flu vaccine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Listed among Crucell’s customers for its PER.C6 cell line are some of the world’s largest drug makers. One of them is Sanofi Pasteur. According to their website, they are using the PER.C6 cell line for their swine flu vaccine, and the United States Department of Health and Human Services has awarded them a contract.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The U.S. government recently contracted with Novartis to deliver $289 million dollars worth of flu vaccine. Novartis declares on their website that they are using cell-based technology to speed up the process, instead of the older egg based technology. According to Crucell’s website, Novartis contracted with them to use PER.C6 in December, 2004. You can view the following page to identify all companies that have contracted to use this aborted fetal line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/S280/Promosmall.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Tune in Saturdays at 8pm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com/"&gt;thetruthpatriot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;One if the most highly misunderstood notions among moral theologians and ethicists is that the abortions involved were not done with the intention of creating vaccines.  In fact, in response to President Bush’s decision on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research (ESCR), the USCCB highlights this point as follows:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“In the present case, human lives were taken in order to provide cells for research and, in some cases, precisely to qualify for federal grants; in the case of vaccines, tissues were taken following abortions performed for unrelated reasons.”  &lt;/em&gt;-(The NCCB Secretariat for Pro-Life Activities, Vol. 12, No. 4 Aug-Sept 2001, The Human Embryo as Research Commodity Special Edition)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;It was the intent of the abortionist and the researcher to destroy these babies specifically for vaccine manufacturing.  But first, the abortions had to be pre-arranged so the researchers were available to immediately preserve the tissues.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;"&lt;em&gt;In order to sustain 96% of the cells, the live tissue would need to be preserved within 5 minutes of the abortion&lt;/em&gt;"-Dr. C. Ward Kischer&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Within one the cells would continue to deteriorate, rendering the specimens useless."&lt;/em&gt;-[Dr. C. Ward Kischer, Embryologist and Emeritus Professor of Anatomy; Specialist in Human Embryology, University of Arizona College of Medicine (Tucson, Arizona) Personal interview 7-02, ALL Conference]&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now, aside from all the evidence, the fact that the swine flu vaccinations were &lt;a href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/health/article6694046.ece"&gt;rushed through the security checks&lt;/a&gt;, and the fact that &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1208716/Half-GPs-refuse-swine-flu-vaccine-testing-fears.html"&gt;50% of doctors are actually rejecting the swine flu vaccine&lt;/a&gt; altogether, more importantly is the fact that our United states government now has &lt;a href="http://www.prisonplanet.com/state-says-forced-injections-quarantines-for-rapidly-spreading-germ-but-not-swine-flu.html"&gt;mandatory vaccination policies&lt;/a&gt; in place all over the country that effectively take away our right to refuse the injection regardless of our biblical, personal, or moral beliefs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is it a just cause to intentionally inflict death on an unborn child just to mass produce a vaccine with many toxic additives as quickly as possible? Are you going to take that shot? If this isn't enough reason alone to refuse it and take action now, perhaps you should read into the ingredients list that we posted &lt;a href="http://vaccineaware.blogspot.com/2009/09/hard-look-at-mandatory-live-virus.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To my many Christian friends out there, I leave you with one question when faced with adversity from an out of control Government that defies the law of God.

Nervous system damage (such as sub-acute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), brachial plexitis, post-vaccinal encephalitis, transverse myelitis and peripheral neuropathies), kidney disease, birth defects, dental problems, mood swings, mental changes, hallucinations, memory loss, and inability to concentrate can occur. Symptoms also include tremors, loss of dermal sensitivity, slurred speech, and—in rare cases—even death and paralysis. This additive alone was the catalyst for another recent Class Action Lawsuit organized by mothers of children born with autism &amp;amp; the many related behavioral disorders associated with it. Autism is now occurring at levels never seen before in history; depending on the state, its rate is now 1 in 67 to 1 in 150. The autism rates used to be 1 in 20,000. Mercury may also be associated with the significantly increased rates of senility and Alzheimer’s, which is associated with five or more successive flu vaccinations. Although most mercury (thimerosal) has been removed from children’s vaccines, it is still in all flu vaccines at toxic doses.&lt;br /&gt;• Tri(n)butylphosphate,&lt;br /&gt;• VERO cells, a continuous line of monkey kidney cells – linked to the SV-40 virus known to cause leukemia&lt;br /&gt;• Washed sheep red blood cells&lt;br /&gt;*This data is available via: www.mercola.com&lt;br /&gt;http://articles.mercola.com/sites/ar...gredients.aspx&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;THESE ADDITIVES ARE GIVEN TO OUR CHILDREN WITHOUT PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;What’s the problem with this horrendous looking list? The problem is two-fold:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(1) the adjuvants are added to increase inflammation and immune response in the system, and&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(2) the adjuvants are significantly detrimental to the overall welfare of the organisms, according to the neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock, M.D., an expert in this field. His research suggests the vaccinations may cause brain swelling and inflammation for up to two years. This alone would be enough to significantly disrupt the immune and endocrine systems, as well as increase senility, activate Alzheimer’s, and other brain dysfunctions. For example, Hugh Fudenberg, MD, Founder and Director of the Neuro lmmuno Therapeutic Research Foundation, reported at the NVIC International Vaccine Conference in Arlington, Virginia in September 1997, that five consecutive seasonal (yearly) flu shots increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease ten fold. Other devastating side effects of vaccines involve neurological damage, including encephalitis, transverse myelitis, peripheral nerve damage, autism, seizures, mental retardation, language delays, behavioral problems, multiple sclerosis, and SSPE (sub-acute sclerosing panencephalitis).

Please spread the word and make this go viral… no pun intended. Kindly reference and link to VacTRUTH!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trials for the experimental H1N1 Swine flu vaccine commence Tuesday, September 15th in Thornton, Colorado. Novartis, a bio-pharmaceutical company that manufactures the vaccine,  is recommending that children participating in the trial receive two doses of an experimental vaccine which contain ingredients found in spermicides, cleaners, and cosmetics along with thimerosal and squalene (MF59). Everyone should have a sense of concern as the only safety checks for these children are a few blood draws and follow-up phone calls. No neurological testing. No kidding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Official opinions from federal agencies, such as the CDC, insist that the new vaccine will be safe and effective. Experts say we can trust the new H1N1 experimental vaccine because the technology used to create the vaccine is time tested. Experts argue that the only variable changing from the ‘normal’ flu vaccine and the H1N1 experimental vaccine is the novel A/H1N1 antigen. In other words, the same vaccine ‘technology’ is used but with the new virus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, this is the furthest thing from the actual TRUTH. As will be demonstrated, the following information was obtained through enrolling a family member into the study to gain an understanding as to what the ingredients would be.  After finding out the the information I am about to share, enrollment in this trial has been canceled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SETTING THE STAGE ON SAFETY AND SQUALENE (MF59)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I met with the research coordinator for the study along with Dr. Melamed, an immunologist conducting the study. Dr. Melamed altruistically shared his knowledge answering questions concerning immunology and the technology behind the vaccine while remaining evasive on questions of what was in the vaccine and legal ramifications if harm was done. Dr. Melamed reassured me several times that the experimental H1N1 vaccine was created just like past vaccines and that the technology was well established.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Requests for package inserts for the ingredients of the experimental H1N1 vaccine were denied on the grounds that this was a study and that information is privileged. However, we can still piece together some of the ingredients based upon the parental consent form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“MF59 is an adjuvant which is used in influenza vaccines&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; licensed for the adults and/or elderly&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; in many countries worldwide, &lt;strong&gt;but it is not contained in any vaccines currently approved in the United States&lt;/strong&gt;.” (page 2)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn’t it interesting that the study states it is licensed for adults and elderly? This study is designed for children between the ages of 3 and 8 and they plan on shooting up newborns and pregnant women with this stuff? &lt;strong&gt;Buyer beware&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is what the World Association for Vaccine Education had to say about &lt;a href="http://www.novaccine.com/vaccine-ingredients/results.asp?sc=27"&gt;Squalene&lt;/a&gt; (MF59):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Squalene:C30H50 an Adjuvant&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Too dangerous for human use, Squalene is not licensed for use in the United States.  Oil adjuvants like squalene have been ordinarily used to inflict diseases in animals – for experimentation and study.  According to anthrax vaccine expert Gary Matsumoto and other reliable sources, the US military used an unlicensed, experimental anthrax vaccination laced with squalene, with disastrous consequences, including Gulf War Sydrome.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chemical descriptions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Unites States National Library of Medicine: PubChem&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/summary/summary.cgi?cid=638072"&gt;http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/summary/summary.cgi?cid=638072&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Toxicity:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?CMD=search&amp;amp;DB=pubmed&amp;amp;term=%22Squalene%2ftoxicity%22[Mesh%20Terms%3anoexp"&gt;http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?CMD=search&amp;amp;DB=pubmed&amp;amp;term=%22Squalene%2ftoxicity%22[Mesh%20Terms%3anoexp&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Adverse effects:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?CMD=search&amp;amp;DB=pubmed&amp;amp;term=%22Squalene%2fadverse%20effects%22[Mesh%20Terms%3anoexp"&gt;http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?CMD=search&amp;amp;DB=pubmed&amp;amp;term=%22Squalene%2fadverse%20effects%22[Mesh%20Terms%3anoexp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Matsumoto, Gary.

An excerpt from Dr. Tenpenny's article can give a better appreciation and understanding of what squalene is capable of in the body...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"On first blush, squalene seems like a good choice for an adjuvant. Manufactured naturally in the liver, squalene is a precursor for cholesterol. In addition, squalene can be purchased at health food stores in its more commonly known form, “shark liver oil.” However, ingested squalene has a completely different effect on the body than injected squalene. When molecules of squalene enter the body through an injection, even at concentrations as small as 10 to 20 parts per billion, it can lead to self-destructive immune responses, such as autoimmune arthritis and lupus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain this reaction. Metabolically, squalene stimulates an immune response excessively and nonspecifically. More than two dozen peer-reviewed scientific papers from ten different laboratories throughout the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Australia have been published documenting the development of autoimmune disease in animals subjected to squalene-based adjuvants. &lt;strong&gt;A convincing proposal for why this occurs includes the concept of “molecular mimicry” in which an antibody created against the squalene in MF59 can cross react with the body’s squalene on the surface of human cells.&lt;/strong&gt; The destruction of the body’s own squalene can lead to debilitating autoimmune and central nervous system diseases."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Carcinogenicity, we (Dr. Deborah Novicki of Novartis, another pharmaceutical company) have done no testing for the carcinogenicity of MF59 adjuvant or any of our preventive vaccines. We haven’t done it and we don’t plan to.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This information is found on a &lt;a href="http://vactruth.com/2009/09/11/ingredients-found-in-spermicides-cleaners-and-cosmetics-along-with-thimerosal-and-squalene-present-in-experimental-h1n1-vaccine/Workshop%20on%20Adjuvants%20and%20Adjuvanted%20Preventative%20and%20Therapeutic%20Vaccines.%20Tuesday,%20December%202nd,%202008.%20Center%20for%20Biologics%20Evaluation%20and%20Research,%20National%20Institutes%20of%20Health,%20National%20Institute%20of%20Allergy%20and%20Infectious%20Disease.%20http://www.fda.gov/downloads/BiologicsBloodVaccines/NewsEvents/WorkshopsMeetingsConferences/ucm095708.pdf"&gt;workshop on adjuvants and adjuvanted preventative and therapeutic vaccines&lt;/a&gt; hosted by the FDA. This gem of a quote is on page 391.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;STRANGE BEDFELLOWS: THIMEROSAL AND SPERMICIDES&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Further down we see that, while not mentioned explicitly as ingredients, one can deduce they are in the vaccine via an implied allergic reaction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"If your child has had an allergic reaction in the past to eggs, egg products, neomycin or polymyxin (antibiotics), sodium &lt;strong&gt;ethylmercurothiosalicylate or thimerosal &lt;/strong&gt;(compounds containing mercury that are frequently used as preservatives in vaccines), beta propriolactone (substance that inactivates a virus), or &lt;strong&gt;nonoxynol 9&lt;/strong&gt; (substance commonly used in cleaners, cosmetics, and &lt;strong&gt;spermicides&lt;/strong&gt;), you must tell the medical staff..." (pg  (emphasis mine)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thimerosal has been thoroughly exposed as a neurological toxin largely in part and much gratitude to Lyn Redwood who obtained the meeting minutes from a secret meeting between government officials and pharmaceutical companies discussing the effects of the mercury additive. The document is called the Simpsonwood document and details exclusively the neurological harm thimerosal causes in children. &lt;a href="http://www.whale.to/a/blaylock.html"&gt;Dr. Russell Blaylock has a commentary on the document here&lt;/a&gt; or read the meeting minutes yourself  &lt;a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/2887572"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“the number of dose related relationships [between mercury and autism] are linear and statistically significant. You can play with this all you want. &lt;strong&gt;They are linear. They are statistically significant.&lt;/strong&gt;” – Dr. William Weil, American Academy of Pediatrics. Simpsonwood, GA, June 7, 2000&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“the issue is that it is impossible, unethical to leave kids unimmunized, so you will never, ever resolve that issue [regarding the impact of mercury].” – Dr. Robert Chen, Chief of Vaccine Safety and Development, Centers For Disease Control, Simpsonwood, GA, June 7, 2000&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Forgive this personal comment, but I got called out at eight o’clock for an emergency call and my daughter-in-law delivered a son by c-section. Our first male in the line of the next generation and &lt;strong&gt;I do not want that grandson to get a Thimerosal containing vaccine until we know better what is going on. &lt;/strong&gt;It will probably take a long time. In the meantime, and I know there are probably implications for this internationally, but in the meanwhile I think I want that grandson to only be given Thimerosal-free vaccines.” – Dr. Robert Johnson, Immunologist, University of Colorado, Simpsonwood, GA, June 7, 2000&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“But there is now the point at which the research results have to be handled, and even if this committee decides that there is no association and that information gets out, the work has been done and through the freedom of information that will be taken by others and will be used in other ways beyond the control of this group. And I am very concerned about that as I suspect that it is already too late to do anything regardless of any professional body and what they say…My mandate as I sit here in this group is to make sure at the end of the day that 100,000,000 are immunized with DTP, Hepatitis B and if possible Hib, this year, next year and for many years to come, and that will have to be with thimerosal containing vaccines unless a miracle occurs and an alternative is found quickly and is tried and found to be safe.” – Dr. John Clements, World Health Organization, Simpsonwood, GA, June 7, 2000&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/S280/Promosmall.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Tune in Saturdays at 8pm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com/"&gt;thetruthpatriot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One can only wonder the harmful effects &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;nonoxynol 9&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; could bring.I could find no past flu vaccine that contained this ingredient nor study showing it is safe to inject into humans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point, it must be said. According to the CDC’s vaccine schedule, children now receive 36 vaccines prior to going into kindergarten. This fall season will add 4 additional vaccines to this total for a grand total of 40!? And we’re not even getting warmed up…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;POSSIBLE RISKS AND SIDE EFFECTS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By far the most entertaining part of the meeting with Dr. Melamed is when my eyes bugged out on page 6 and 7 of the study. It was explained to me that the side effects I am about to list off are side effects for all vaccines… and that I had nothing to worry about because this vaccine, this vaccine as you recall was made with ‘established technology’. If that is the case, it is the cause for even MORE concern!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Other side effects that have been reported in clinical studies with other influenza vaccines or have been reported by people who received influenza vaccines may include: [VacTRUTH &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Editor's Note:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Potential Flu Symptoms Highlighted in RED]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Reactions at the site of injection:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• bruising&lt;br /&gt;• itchiness&lt;br /&gt;• rash&lt;br /&gt;• warmth&lt;br /&gt;• lump or irritation at the site where the vaccine was given&lt;br /&gt;• sharp pain in or along nerves or tingling of pins and needles (paresthesia)&lt;br /&gt;• pain limiting movement of the limb where the vaccine was given&lt;br /&gt;• infection&lt;br /&gt;• muscle ache&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other general reactions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;• hot flashes or flushing&lt;br /&gt;• chills or shivering&lt;br /&gt;• dizziness&lt;br /&gt;• generalized weakness&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• fainting shortly after vaccination&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;• nausea&lt;br /&gt;• vomiting&lt;br /&gt;• diarrhea&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• loss of appetite&lt;br /&gt;• abdominal pain&lt;br /&gt;• back pain&lt;br /&gt;• lymph node enlargement&lt;br /&gt;• temporary decrease in the number of blood platelets, which may increase the risk of bleeding&lt;br /&gt;• bleeding&lt;br /&gt;• decrease in red blood cells, or anemia, which may make you feel tired.&lt;br /&gt;• high blood pressure (hypertension)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;• shortness of breath&lt;br /&gt;• wheezing&lt;br /&gt;• chest tightness&lt;br /&gt;• chest pain&lt;br /&gt;• cough&lt;br /&gt;• sore throat&lt;br /&gt;• runny nose&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• “pins and needles” in the skin&lt;br /&gt;• sweating&lt;br /&gt;• skin disorders related to allergic reaction (which can lead to rash and skin loss)&lt;br /&gt;• inflammation of blood vessels (including inflammation of blood vessels that may cause short-term effect on kidneys)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;• confusion&lt;br /&gt;• headaches similar to those described as migraine&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• seizures associated with fever&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;• spinal cord or brain inflammation (encephalomyelitis)&lt;br /&gt;• paralysis&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• muscle weakness&lt;br /&gt;• infection&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;• life-threatening and/or debilitating disorders of the nervous system“&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On IMMUNoE’s website, on page three of  &lt;a href="http://www.immunoe.com/pdfs/H1N1_QA_Child.pdf"&gt;this flier&lt;/a&gt;, it states:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Q: Could the new H1N1 vaccine cause a person to get the flu?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: Contrary to popular belief, it is not possible to get flu from a flu vaccine. This is true for the seasonal flu vaccine, as well as the investigational(sic) H1N1 vaccine.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are the vaccines the same or not the same? Of course, Dr. Melamed at this point tells me about how people with weakened or no immune system can actually get the disease from a vaccine. I asked what measures were being used to understand what the child’s immune response would be (or even if they had an immune response to indicate it was working PRIOR to the vaccine) and Dr. Melamed said, ‘none’. If they don’t measure before and after, how will they know?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“These other general conditions have occurred in people who received influenza vaccines:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• autoimmune disorders (these are disorders in which the body’s tissue are attacked by its own immune system and include liver injury or nerve injury)&lt;br /&gt;• arthritis (joint pain)” (pg&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DR ANDREW MOULDEN AND NEUROLOGICAL TESTING&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being a concerned parent one at this point would probably want to know how neurological damage is measured to know if it has occurred in their child. To my surprise, NO NEUROLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS are taken!!! &lt;a href="http://vactruth.com/2009/07/18/blast-from-the-past-h1n1-documentary-obama-and-bigpharma-doesnt-want-you-to-watch/"&gt;Neurological damage can clearly be seen in past flu vaccines as was the case in the 1975-76 swine flu vaccine.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Andrew Moulden gives laypersons clinical skills to detect neurological damage occurring after a child or adult is vaccinated. I highly recommend his DVD – Tolerance Lost that is found on his &lt;a href="http://brainguardmd.com/"&gt;Brainguard website&lt;/a&gt; or reading several articles posted exclusively on VacTRUTH which will give you these skills. They are respectively entitled, “&lt;a href="http://vactruth.com/2009/07/21/dr-andrew-moulden-interview-what-you-were-never-told-about-vaccines/"&gt;Dr. Andrew Moulden (Interview): What You Were Never Told About Vaccines&lt;/a&gt;” and “&lt;a href="http://vactruth.com/2009/08/03/vaccinations-are-causing-impaired-blood-flow-ischemia-chronic-illness-disease-and-death-for-us-all-hp/"&gt;Vaccinations are causing impaired blood flow (Ischemia), Chronic Illness, Disease and Death for us all&lt;/a&gt;“. The second article has photographs showing you precisely what is occurring.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a separate &lt;a href="http://vactruth.com/2009/08/29/newsradio-1070-wkok-listen-to-how-all-vaccines-damage-the-brain/"&gt;interview with Dr. Moulden&lt;/a&gt;, he succinctly states that if neurological measures are never taken, the industry can say that vaccines are safe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only measurements taken will be a brief physical exam, measurement of vital signs and body temperature, blood samples to check for immune response, reviewing diaries with staff, and follow up phone calls. (pg4) Monitoring for safety is occurring for 13 months. How can, then, the vaccines be declared for public use with any certainty of safety in less than 2 months?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“It is also of the understanding that eight investigational (sic) vaccine formulations with different amounts of A/H1N1 antigens and with or without adjuvant will be tested for this study.” (pg 2)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;OVERVIEW&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let us recap.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. The vaccine contains squalene (MF59) which has not been tested for causing cancer.&lt;br /&gt;2. The vaccine contains thimerosal, a known culprit in causing autism and neurological deficits.&lt;br /&gt;3. The vaccine curiously contains nonoxynol-9 used in spermicides.&lt;br /&gt;4. The vaccine will likely cause (and spread) the flu.&lt;br /&gt;5. No neurological testing will be done to ensure the vaccine is safe from harmful neurological side effects.&lt;br /&gt;6. Monitoring for safety will last 13 months, well beyond the flu season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As to my knowledge, this information is the first of its kind validating the ingredients and the intent to use them on the population. Buyer beware of this vaccine as we are likely to see an onslaught of damaged men, women, and children if there are forced vaccines.

Mock-up vaccines contain an active ingredient for an influenza virus that has not circulated recently in human populations and thus mimics the novelty of a pandemic virus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the website, “Such advance studies can greatly expedite regulatory approval.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources:  &lt;a href="http://www.who.int/csr/disease/swineflu/notes/h1n1_safety_vaccines_20090805/en/index.html"&gt;World Health Organization&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Mercola’s Comments:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On June 11 the World Health Organization (WHO) raised its swine flu pandemic alert from a 5 to a 6. Phase 6 is the highest level alert, and reflects the speed with which a virus is spreading — not its severity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This classification also allows for a vaccine to qualify for a “fast-track” procedure for licensing and approval, and this process is now ongoing for the swine flu vaccine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What you may not know, however, is that WHO, together with health officials, regulatory authorities and vaccine manufacturers, have been working since 2007 – long before this new “threat” of swine flu emerged – to “explore a broad range of issues surrounding the regulatory approval of pandemic vaccines.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the WHO website:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“Ways were sought to shorten the time between the emergence of a pandemic virus and the availability of safe and effective vaccines.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One such method used in Europe is to conduct advance studies using a “mock-up” vaccine that contains an active ingredient for an influenza virus that has not circulated recently in human populations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When testing these mock-up vaccines, it is very possible to release the novel influenza virus into the population, as its purpose is to “mimic the novelty of a pandemic virus” and “greatly expedite regulatory approval.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government officials have other tricks up their sleeves to ensure these new, barely tested vaccines easily make it to market as well, such as:&lt;br /&gt;Labeling the vaccine a “strain change” rather than an entirely “new” vaccine. This method states the new vaccine has built on technology used to produce vaccines for seasonal influenza, and the change for the pandemic vaccine is similar to a strain change used to produce a new seasonal vaccine each flu season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the United States, vaccine manufacturers are required to submit fewer data if they already have a licensed flu vaccine and will use the same manufacturing process for the pandemic vaccine.&lt;br /&gt;Using a “rolling review procedure.” This allows manufacturers to submit sets of data for regulatory review “as they become available.” In other words, they’re free to distribute the vaccine and then submit the safety data later on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Would You Want a Fast-Tracked Vaccine Injected Into Your Body?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By very definition, fast-tracked vaccines are those that have received very little safety testing prior to being used. So any time you agree to get one, you are essentially a guinea pig.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vaccine manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline has actually stated:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“Clinical trials will be limited, due to the need to provide the vaccine to governments as quickly as possible. Additional studies will therefore be required and conducted after the vaccine is made available.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And WHO likewise says:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Time constraints mean that clinical data at the time when pandemic vaccines are first administered will inevitably be limited. Further testing of safety and effectiveness will need to take place after administration of the vaccine has begun.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why would anyone who knows the facts sign up for a vaccine that really needs further safety studies … but won’t receive them until AFTER it’s already been given out? By then it will be too late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So please realize that if you or your child receive a swine flu vaccine, you will be acting as a TEST subject.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/S280/Promosmall.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Tune in Saturdays at 8pm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com/"&gt;thetruthpatriot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember this vaccine will not be made using the methods of the past. In order to speed up the cultivation of the virus and the manufacturing process, they’re using human liver cells instead of chicken eggs. Whether this new procedure is better or worse than the old method, I can’t say … but it’s never been used before and they have not had time to conduct any human testing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, it’s a giant game of Russian Roulette that you simply want to avoid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nearly all of the vaccines created will also include thimerosal (mercury), and the toxic &lt;a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/08/04/squalene-the-swine-flu-vaccines-dirty-little-secret-exposed.aspx"&gt;adjuvant squalene&lt;/a&gt;, both of which have been clearly shown to carry significant health risks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should know, too, that vaccine makers and federal officials have been rendered immune from lawsuits. Should anything go wrong with this current vaccine they will not have to &lt;a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/08/20/Legal-Immunity-Set-for-Swine-Flu-Vaccine-Makers.aspx"&gt;pay a single cent to anyone!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who Stands to Benefit From the Swine Flu Pandemic (and Future Pandemics)?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the question you need to ask yourself when you hear the media dishing out the latest statistics about the swine flu pandemic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the last few days alone, I’ve seen major news outlets warning that come flu season, the swine flu could kill 90,000 Americans and hospitalize 2 million. This sounds a lot like the fear-mongering that went on during the &lt;a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/2/14/i-was-right-about-the-bird-flu-hoax.aspx"&gt;Bird Flu pandemic (that never materialized) back in 2005&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back then scientists and governments were congratulating themselves for averting a threat that never was by stockpiling worthless vaccines. Now I’m having déjà vu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In response to this newest swine flu pandemic, what did the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently suggest?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Swine flu shots for all! Of course, what else would you expect?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/NewsSearch?st=cdc%20As%20soon%20as%20a%20vaccine%20is%20available,%20try%20to%20get%20it%20for%20everyone%20in%20your%20family&amp;amp;"&gt;Washington Post reported&lt;/a&gt;, CDC said: “As soon as a vaccine is available, try to get it for everyone in your family.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, you might be tempted to do just that if you believe the sensational number of swine flu deaths they’re predicting. But, really, these numbers are not based on facts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHO continues to define the severity of the H1N1 virus to be moderate, generally defined as an illness requiring neither hospitalization nor even medical care. Most cases are having MILD symptoms that clear up on their own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Further, no one really knows for sure just how many cases of swine flu there are, because some countries are no longer confirming them by lab.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the UK, for example, they now appear to be collecting swine flu data online and via the phone, based on nothing but self-assessment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So did they really contract the swine flu?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or did the vast majority of them simply have a case of the sniffles or a seasonal flu bug? Without laboratory confirmation, no one will ever know, but they sure are using those numbers to scare you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going back to my original question though, you must ask yourself who stands to benefit from all of this paranoia and hysteria.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course you know the answer to this one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/07/28/What-are-the-Dangers-of-Mandatory-Swine-Flu-Vaccination.aspx"&gt;Big Pharma&lt;/a&gt; … which stands to &lt;a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/08/13/Swine-Flu-Vaccine-Makers-to-Profit-50-Billion-a-Year.aspx"&gt;gain up to $49 billion a year on the swine flu vaccine&lt;/a&gt; alone plus an infinite amount on top of that for future pandemic vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The vaccine manufacturers would love for every man, woman, and child to heed the CDC’s advice to get vaccinated. But now you know better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The swine flu is typically a mild illness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The swine flu vaccine has not been tested for safety or efficacy, but we DO know it will contain harmful additives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The choice, to me, is obvious. And in the future, anytime a new “pandemic” appears and officials urge you to rush out and get a shot, please remember this article and ask yourself if it’s really you who stands to benefit from their advice.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Want to Learn More AND Get Involved? Attend This World-Class Vaccine Conference!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly the swine flu vaccines are going to be available in the US around the time the finest vaccine conference in the world will be held. If you want to learn the absolute latest and best strategies for swine flu then Washington DC is the place to be October 2-4. I will be sharing my strategies live at the event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So join me at the &lt;a href="http://www.nvic.org/NVIC-Vaccine-News/June-2009/Swine-Flu-Vaccine--Will-We-Have-A-Choice--by-Barba.aspx"&gt;National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) Web site&lt;/a&gt;, and join us in taking action against the potential threat of mandatory swine flu vaccinations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;October 2-4, 2009, the &lt;a href="http://www.nvic.org/Events/overview.aspx"&gt;International Vaccine Conference&lt;/a&gt; will be held in Reston, Virginia (Near Washington, D.C.). It is the best vaccine conference in the world, and is only held about once every five years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is relatively inexpensive to attend, and highly recommended. But you’ll need to hurry to reserve your seat, as there is only room for 1,000 and the seats are going quickly.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-5968748944063176861?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/5968748944063176861/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/who-admits-to-releasing-pandemic-virus.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/5968748944063176861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/5968748944063176861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/who-admits-to-releasing-pandemic-virus.html' title='WHO Admits to Releasing Pandemic Virus into Population via ‘Mock-Up’ Vaccines'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/s72-c/Promosmall.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-6743927403204237163</id><published>2009-09-14T20:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-15T02:55:27.670-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Swine Flu Vaccines Contain LIVE H1N1 VIRUS!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://noworldsystem.com/"&gt;No World System&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;August 4, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s not a typo, the main ingredient in the GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis vaccines contain a LIVE VIRUS, an attenuated virus meaning it’s a weakened form of the swine flu virus. Attenuated vaccines can be deadly and cause virus shedding, when a person is injected with an attenuated live virus the organism moves through the human body possibly infecting the host and then exiting through the feces, mucous membranes and saliva glands of the inoculated person. This is called ‘virus shedding’ and can last for weeks. &lt;a href="http://insidevaccines.com/wordpress/2008/02/24/secondary-transmission-%EF%BB%BFthe-short-and-sweet-about-live-virus-vaccine-shedding/"&gt;[Source]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Homeland Security, BATF, FBI, U.S. Marshals, U.S Military, NORTHCOM and FEMA are discussing plans to assist civilian authorities to enforce mandatory vaccinations and involuntary quarantines of large sections of the U.S. population. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Imagine millions of children that will be &lt;a href="http://noworldsystem.com/2009/07/29/u-s-schools-prepare-for-mass-swine-flu-vaccinations/"&gt;involuntarily vaccinated&lt;/a&gt; this coming fall that will be shedding H1N1 swine flu across the country, in the sewage drains and possibly passing through the desalination process and in our tap-water. If &lt;a href="http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/world/archives/2009/07/31/2003449949"&gt;half of the U.S. population will be vaccinated&lt;/a&gt; with this swine flu vaccine this coming fall and winter, imagine how virulently deadly this swine flu will be on an annual basis, this mandatory vaccination plan will surely cause the pandemic and not solve it.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/S280/Promosmall.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Tune in Saturdays at 8pm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com/"&gt;thetruthpatriot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Some readers may be thinking that I am a conspiracy nut for bringing this up, that vaccine makers couldn’t possibly be that evil. But all the reader has to do is Google “attenuated vaccines”, it means the vaccine contains a live but weakened form of a pathogenic virus. Do you really want to risk your health and inject live swine flu into your bloodstream in hopes it will immunize? Please don’t take that chance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both Novartis and GSK vaccines will also contain &lt;a href="http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2009/07/17/Squalene-The-Swine-Flu-Vaccines-Dirty-Little-Secret-Exposed.aspx"&gt;MF59&lt;/a&gt;, a squalene-based adjuvant that when combined with a live attenuated virus becomes many times more potent and deadly.

Mercury is the 2nd most toxic metal on the planet and is known to cause autism and other neural injuries in children. The vaccine also contains formaldehyde, a cancer-causing chemical most commonly used for embalming dead bodies for preservation. [&lt;a href="http://www.rense.com/general86/list.htm"&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This whole swine-flu scare is just &lt;a href="http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,637119,00.html"&gt;one big infomercial for the influenza vaccine makers&lt;/a&gt;, with the help of the mediaopoly and the federal government they just might get to involuntarily vaccinate millions of Americans. Homeland Security, BATF, FBI, U.S. Marshals, U.S Military, &lt;a href="http://noworldsystem.com/2009/08/03/military-to-work-with-fema-during-swine-flu-pandemic/"&gt;NORTHCOM and FEMA are discussing plans to assist civilian authorities to enforce mandatory vaccinations&lt;/a&gt; and involuntary quarantines of large sections of the U.S. population. &lt;a href="http://noworldsystem.com/2009/07/30/health-care-bill-funds-vaccine-teams-to-visit-homes/"&gt;Vaccine Teams&lt;/a&gt; will be visiting private homes looking for children that haven’t been vaccinated, all of these events just might be right around the corner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today our efforts must be focused on educating the masses about these dangerous swine flu vaccines, we only have the entire summer to increase the volume of dissent so everyone will realize this entire swine flu pandemic is a hoax perpetuated by vaccine companies, the media and the federal government and that their solution will only increase the infection-rate of a new hybrid influenza strain. &lt;a href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=27275"&gt;Contact your legislator by going here&lt;/a&gt;, fill out the form and demand the end to this madness.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-6743927403204237163?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/6743927403204237163/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/swine-flu-vaccines-contain-live-h1n1.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/6743927403204237163'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/6743927403204237163'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/09/swine-flu-vaccines-contain-live-h1n1.html' title='Swine Flu Vaccines Contain LIVE H1N1 VIRUS!'/><author><name>Editor</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/s72-c/Promosmall.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-432924704888338617</id><published>2009-08-03T15:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-15T21:52:20.680-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Vaccination Myths and Truths</title><content type='html'>Alan G. Philips is an attorney with the following credentials:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- he's one of the few American lawyers whose practice includes vaccine exemption and waiver issues;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- he advises other attorneys seeking help for their own clients on vaccine exemptions;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- he co-founded Citizens for Healthcare Freedom (CHF) as "a grassroots, nonprofit organization supporting an exciting new Consumer Health Freedom Act in North Carolina" where he lives and practices law;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- he "may be the only attorney in the US with a website dedicated to vaccine exemptions" - vaccinerights.com;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- he authored "The Authoritative Guide to Vaccine Legal Exemptions;" and he's written numerous articles and publications on vaccinations and immunizations, including "Dispelling Vaccination Myths: An Introduction to the Contradictions Between Medical Science and Immunization Policy," published in 1996 and most recently updated in 2007.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Given the possibility of universally mandated untested, experimental, toxic, and extremely dangerous Swine Flu vaccinations this fall, Philips' work is especially relevant and vital.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In its entirety, it can be accessed at www.vaccinerights.com/. A brief account follows below, focusing on 10 myths and truths, which he explains plus some additional information. More than ever, information is vital for protection against vaccines that can cause annoying to life-threatening autoimmune diseases, even the illnesses they're designed to prevent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of special concern is their effect on children. In America and elsewhere, they're over-immunized enough to destroy their immune systems, leaving them vulnerable to a lifetime of serious health disorders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one should voluntarily or otherwise take any vaccine, let alone one as untested and dangerous as for H1N1. But make no mistake. The dominant global media are readying a high intensity fear-mongering campaign to convince the unwary to jeopardize their health and well-being by doing it. Just say NO!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In America, laws in place empower the Health and Human Services and/or Defense secretaries to declare a national emergency and order mass vaccinations. Legally, individual states can resist, but not likely when enough pressure is applied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the proposed, but not enacted, October 2001 Model State Emergency Health Powers Act (MSEHPA), states are advised on how to exercise extraordinary emergency powers without regard to civil liberties issues. Individual ones have adopted some of its provisions and may add more later given the power of Washington and the media to force them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The WHO is also empowered under the 2005 International Health Regulations (IHR) to address but not mandate global vaccinations. But it has enough influence to compel nations to go along in case of a "declared" pandemic threat, even without evidence to prove one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Suspicious H1N1's Origins &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On April 24, AP reported that :&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"Health officials are investigating a never-before-seen form of the flu that combines pig, bird and human viruses.... (It's) a growing medical mystery because it's unclear how (affected people) caught the virus. None (of seven cited had) contact with pigs."&lt;/span&gt; Nor had others reportedly affected in other US cities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The "intercontinental" mixture included North American Swine Flu, North American Avian Flu, human H1N1 flu, and a fourth H3N2 strain found in Asia and Europe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suspicions about a synthetic laboratory-made virus have surfaced. Writing in NewsMax.com, Dr. Russell Blaylock quoted an unnamed viroligist saying: &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"Where the hell it got all these genes we don't know."&lt;/span&gt; According to Blalock: &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"Debate continues over the possibility that swine flu is a genetically engineered virus."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dallas County Medical Director Dr. John Carlo voiced concern about the possibility that:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"This strain of swine influenza (may have been) cultured in a laboratory....something that's not been seen anywhere actually in the United States and the world...."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently interviewed on Russia Today TV, investigative journalist Wayne Madsen cited a University of Wisconsin lab conducting joint influenza vaccine research with drug company FluGen. On March 24, Reuters reported that:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"FluGen, Inc., an emerging leader in the development, production and delivery of influenza vaccines and related products, today announced it has secured exclusive rights to a novel, patent-protected vaccine-delivery technology (that) painlessly delivers seasonal and pandemic influenza vaccines."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Madsen believes &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"the Swine Flu virus began in a lab,"&lt;/span&gt; the objective being profits for vaccine makers with products &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"that may not actually be safe."&lt;/span&gt; Many noted experts share that view about all vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NutriMedical founder Dr. William Deagle reported that 6-8% of Swine Flu DNA matches no virus on record. He believes more lethal strains may appear in the fall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Project Camelot&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt; "provide(s) a vehicle for researchers and whistleblowers to get their stories out."&lt;/span&gt; Interviewed on its Whistleblower Radio show, Burk Elder Hale claimed that a senior drug company biochemist (unnamed to protect him) told him:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"....an aerosoled precursor has been put into the air and almost everyone has breathed it into their lungs. (When Swine Flu) vaccines (are) administered in the fall, (they'll) be activated when (their) constituents come into contact with the aerosoled precursor in the body and will cause a rapid spread of the H1N1 influenza A virus. The biochemist is very upset about the matter....and is a very reliable source that needs our utmost protection."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Catherine Austin Fitts is a former high-level US government official and Wall Street insider. She's now the editor of Solari.com and runs Solari, Inc. as an "online media company focusing on ethical investment and preserving family wealth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Admitting she's no expert, she wrote this about Swine Flu on July 22:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"I believe one of the goals of the swine flu vaccine is depopulation. Perhaps it is the goal of a swine flu epidemic as well, whether bio-warfare or hype around a flu season....Lowering immune systems and increasing toxicity levels combined with poor food, water and terrorizing stress will help do the trick....a plague can so frighten and help control people that they will accept the end of their current benefits....without objection. And a plague with proper planning can be highly profitable. Whatever the truth (about) swine flu and related vaccines....it can be used (to) control (a) situation that is quickly shifting out of control."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"In short, an epidemic can be used to offset the inflation of capital with increasing deflation of the value and income of labor and continual demand destruction. (What's coming next is the) meaner face of 'the establishment against the rest of society.' "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The possibility of a diabolical depopulation scheme can't be dismissed. The idea's been around for decades, including from the 1974 Henry Kissinger project - National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200). It was backed by powerful economic interests to cull the world population of useless feeders so corporate giants could exploit world resources unimpeded.&lt;br /&gt;Kissinger's scheme was to make birth control a prerequisite for US aid. He wanted the annual death rate doubled and for a population decline in the hundreds of millions by 2000. Poor third world women in countries like Brazil were involuntarily sterilized. Millions were harmed then. Perhaps today's toll from mandatory global Swine Flu vaccinations will be billions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet US laws were passed to prevent it. In 1986, the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) required:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- giving parents written information on vaccine benefits and risks so they could decide on what was safe for their children;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- maintaining a permanent record of all vaccines given children, including producer names and lot numbers;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- keeping up to date medical records of all vaccinations given children; and&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- recording all serious health problems after vaccinations were administered and notifying the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) immediately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At issue is whether federal laws and constitutional and Nuremberg protections will help. Nuremberg requires voluntary consent with full disclosure of known risks and avoidance of experimental treatments if there's any reason to believe harm may result. The Fifth Amendment protects against abusive government authority in stating that "No person shall....be deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law...." The Eighth Amendment prohibits "cruel and unusual punishments." Harming human health is cruel and abusive. Mandating suspect drugs violates Nuremberg, the US Constitution, and other protective laws. Whether they'll be enforced is another matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Dispelling Vaccination Myths with Truths&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 1: Vaccines are safe&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Reporting System) was established. Annually, it reports about 11,000 serious vaccine reactions, including up to 200 deaths and many more permanent disabilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Far more alarming is the following;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- the FDA estimates that only 1% of serious adverse reactions are reported;&lt;br /&gt;-- CDC says it's 10%;&lt;br /&gt;-- medical school students testified before Congress that they're told not to report these incidents;&lt;br /&gt;-- according to the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), only one in 40 New York doctors reported adverse vaccine reactions or deaths;&lt;br /&gt;-- international studies show vaccines cause up to 10,000 US SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) deaths annually, and at least half of them are from vaccines;&lt;br /&gt;-- another study determined that 3000 US children die annually from vaccines;&lt;br /&gt;-- poor reporting in America suggests that annual adverse vaccine reactions, in fact, number from 100,000 - one million;&lt;br /&gt;-- since 1988, the government's National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP) paid families of affected children $1.2 billion in damages;&lt;br /&gt;-- as authorized by the 2006 Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, HHS Secretary Sebelius, granted drug companies legal immunity (except for impossible to prove willful misconduct) to proliferate dangerous, untested Swine Flu vaccines globally;&lt;br /&gt;-- vaccines are legally mandated in all 50 US states, though legally avoidable in most (under normal circumstances) as explained below;&lt;br /&gt;-- in settling vaccine damage suits, drug companies impose gag orders to keep vital information from the public; and&lt;br /&gt;-- insurers refuse to cover adverse vaccine reactions because of the high potential liability they'd face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/S280/Promosmall.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Tune in Saturdays at 8pm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thetruthpatriot.com/"&gt;thetruthpatriot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vaccinations cause high numbers of severe reactions, permanent disabilities, and deaths as well as an enormous personal and public cost. Virtually none of this gets reported.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 2: Vaccines are very effective&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medical literature documents significant numbers of vaccine failures for measles, mumps, small pox, pertussis, polio and Hib-causing bacterial meningitis and pneumonia. In 1989, Oman experienced a widespread polio outbreak six months after completing a population-wide immunization program. In Kansas (in 1986), 90% of 1300 reported pertussis cases were "adequately vaccinated," and 72% of Chicago pertussis incidents in 1993 had been as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evidence shows that vaccinations are an unreliable and dangerous way to prevent illness and disease.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 3: Low US disease rates are attributable to vaccines&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From 1850 - 1940, well before mandatory vaccination programs, the British Association for the Advancement of Science reported a 90% decrease in childhood diseases due to improved sanitation and hygiene practices. By 1945, US medical authorities noted a 95% drop in deaths from the leading childhood infectious diseases (diphtheria, pertussis, scarlet fever and measles), well before mass-immunizations began.&lt;br /&gt;A recent WHO report found that third world disease and mortality rates had no direct correlation with immunization programs, but closely relate to hygiene and diet standards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No evidence links vaccines with infectious disease declines. Proper hygiene and diet practices may be far more effective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 4: Sound immunization theory and practice prove the effectiveness of vaccines&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although vaccines stimulate antibody production, no evidence suggests that alone assures immunity. A 1950 British Medical Council-published study found no relationship between antibody count and disease incidence. Natural immunization involves many bodily organs and systems. Artificially producing antibodies can't achieve it.&lt;br /&gt;Research also shows how squalene adjuvants harm the human immune system, making it susceptible to numerous illnesses and diseases ranging from very annoying to life threatening. In addition, the "herd immunity" notion of mass-immunizations effectiveness is largely discredited. Just the opposite is true as evidence shows that fully vaccinated populations have experienced epidemics numerous times in the past.&lt;br /&gt;Further, vaccine effectiveness "remains scientifically unproven" because no double blind studies have been conducted to do it. Significantly, recent disease outbreaks have affected more vaccinated children than unvaccinated ones. And the common practice of "one size fits all" is troublesome. It lets tiny new-borns get the same dosage as a five year old. It tolerates dubious quality control practices producing what's known as "Hot Lots" - ones associated with disproportionately high death and disability rates.&lt;br /&gt;Shockingly, the FDA refuses to act preventatively against them. In fact, individual vaccine lots have almost never been recalled even when associated with severe adverse reactions. Instead, they're administered under the assumption that all recipients respond the same, regardless of race, ethnicity, genetic makeup, or other characteristics.&lt;br /&gt;A recent New England Journal of Medicine-reported study found that a significant number of Romanian children receiving polio vaccine contracted the disease. Evidence linked antibiotic injections to it. One innoculation raised the polio risk eight-fold; two - nine shots, 27-fold, and 10 or more 182-fold.&lt;br /&gt;New research may reveal other unknown hazards, but public safety won't be addressed until government health officials act responsibly, report accurately, and adequately protect their populations from vaccines they never should allow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many supposed vaccine truths have, in fact, been proved false.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 5: Childhood diseases are extremely dangerous&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;False. Even CDC data show a 99.8% pertussis recovery rate during the 1992-94 period. One Cincinnati Children's Hospital infectious diseases expert said at the time: "The disease was very mild, no one died, and no one went to the intensive care unit."&lt;br /&gt;Nearly always, childhood infectious diseases "are benign and self-limiting. They usually impart lifelong immunity, whereas vaccine-induced immunization (when achieved) is only temporary." In fact, it can increase vulnerability later on by postponing better tolerated childhood illnesses until adulthood when death rates (though still low) are far higher.&lt;br /&gt;Most important is that nearly all common infectious diseases are rarely dangerous, and, in fact, can develop strong, healthy adult immune systems when they're most needed. In addition, few people know that children who didn't contract measles have a higher incidence of skin diseases, degenerative bone and cartilage ones, and tumors while ovarian cancer is higher among mumps-free adult women. The human immune system benefits from common childhood infectious diseases. Freedom from them may be harmful later on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 5&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Childhood disease dangers are greatly exaggerated to scare parents into getting their children vaccinated with unsafe drugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 6: Polio vaccinations were very successful&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;False again. In 1955, when the Salk vaccine was introduced, polio was considered the most serious post-war public health problem. A year later, six New England states reported sharp rises ranging from more than double in Vermont to a 642% increase in Massachusetts. Other states also were badly impacted enough for Idaho and Utah to halt immunizations due to increased incidence and death rates.&lt;br /&gt;In his 1962 congressional testimony, Dr. Bernard Greenberg, Biostatistics Department head at the University of North Carolina, reported sharp polio increases from 1957 to 1959 and a Public Health Service whitewash that suppressed it. In 1985, the CDC reported that 87% of US cases between 1973 and 1983 were caused by the vaccine. Later it added that it caused nearly all imported cases, and most of the victims were fully vaccinated.&lt;br /&gt;Documented long-term health problems include arthritis, chronic headaches, rashes indicative of disease, nFurther, misdiagnosing, poor reporting, and cover-ups suggest that the actual number of vaccine-associated paralytic polio (VAPP) cases "may be 10 to 100 times higher than that cited by the CDC."&lt;br /&gt;In 1977, even Jonas Salk admitted that mass inoculations caused most polio cases since 1961.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 6&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Salk vaccine proved highly dangerous. Information about it was suppressed, and declines in the disease were well underway when mass-immunizations were begun. In Europe, they occurred in countries that used, then rejected the vaccine proving it was never needed in the first place. Showing also that the same is true for other diseases, including Swine Flu with the WHO and CDC admitting that most cases are mild, unthreatening, and generally pass without treatment, let alone risking dangerous unneeded vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 7: Lack of an initial adverse reaction proves vaccines are safe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;on-healing skin lesions, seizures, autism, anemia, multiple sclerosis, ALS, cancer, and many others. Ingredients common to all vaccines are at issue. Squalene adjuvants are a biological time bomb that can harm or destroy the human immune system.&lt;br /&gt;Other ingredients are known toxicants and carcinogens, including thimersol (a mercury derivative), aluminum phosphate, formaldehyde, phenoxyethanol, and numerous gastrointestnal toxicants like liver toxicants, cardiovascular and blood toxicants, and reproductive toxicants. "Chemical ranking systems rate many vaccine ingredients among the most hazardous substances" known, even in microscopic doses.&lt;br /&gt;"Millions of children (and adults) are partaking in an enormous crude experiment, and no sincere, organized effort is being made to track the negative side effects or to determine the long-term consequences."&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Bart Classen's epidemiological research found vaccines as the cause of 79% of insulin type I diabetes cases in children under 10. The sharp rise in numerous other diseases may also be linked with mass-immunizations. California's autism rate skyrocketed 1000% in the last 20 years. In the 1990s, MMR vaccine usage in Britain (for measles, mumps and rubella) occurred at the same time autism rose sharply. The January 2000 Journal of Adverse Drug Reactions reported that no adequate testing was done, so the vaccine never should have been licensed.&lt;br /&gt;The Autism Society says: "Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and is the result of a neurological disorder that affects the normal functioning of the brain...."&lt;br /&gt;According to the CDC and National Vaccine Information Center, one in every 150 US children develop the disease. Tens of millions are affected worldwide, making it more common than pediatric cancer, incurable type 1 (juvenile-onset) diabetes and AIDS combined. In the early 1940s, prior to mass immunizations, autism was so rare that few doctors ever encountered it. Today it's a global pandemic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 7&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Long-term vaccination reactions have been suppressed and ignored in spite of the alarming correlation between their use and the rise of autoimmune and other diseases. Vaccines aren't for protection. They're for profit and other nefarious purposes. Avoiding them is essential to protecting human health and well-being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 8: Vaccines are the only available disease prevention option&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;"Historically, homeopathy has proven many times...more effective than allopathic (conventional) medicine in the treatment and prevention of disease." During the 1849 US cholera outbreak, homeopathic hospitals documented a 3% death rate compared to 48 - 60% in conventional ones. It's as true today, and recent epidemiological studies show homeopathic remedies far superior to vaccines in preventing diseases. They're safe, effective, and toxin and side effect-free, yet most insurers won't cover them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 8&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alternative treatments and remedies have been safe and effective for generations, yet the medical establishment and governments attack and spurn them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 9: "Vaccinations are legally mandated and unavoidable..."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All states require them. However, laws vary by state, legal exemptions exist, and all states offer one or more of the following:&lt;br /&gt;-- all states allow medical exemptions for persons susceptible to adverse reactions; parents can cite this for their children based on family history;&lt;br /&gt;-- 48 states offer religious exemptions but may require membership in an established religious organization; "according to federal precedent, personal religious beliefs may be sufficient for a religious exemption regardless of which religious organization you belong to, or whether or not you belong to an organized religion at all;" in addition, the Supreme Court defined religion broadly for legal purposes; and&lt;br /&gt;-- 17 states allow philosophical or personal exemptions.&lt;br /&gt;All public and private schools must comply with federal and state vaccination laws and permit legal exemptions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 9&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some vaccines are mandated, but most, perhaps all, US citizens may use legal exemptions to avoid them. In a recent article, however, Phillips states:&lt;br /&gt;"All non-medical exemptions in the US are ultimately provided conditionally. That is, states have the right to require immunization for everyone, legally exempt or not, during an (emergency) outbreak, other than (for) those" with medical exemptions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Myth No. 10: Governments place public health concerns above all others&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Vaccination history shows "documented instances of deceit portraying vaccines as mighty disease conquerors, when in fact vaccines have had little or no discernible impact - or have even delayed or reversed - pre-existing disease declines....Conflicts of interest are the norm in the vaccine industry." Government agencies like the FDA and CDC are stacked with corporate officials who return to high-paying industry jobs provided they place profit considerations over public health and safety.&lt;br /&gt;In November 2000, concern over this and adverse reactions got the American Association of Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) to pass a unanimous resolution at its 57th meeting calling for a moratorium on mandatory childhood vaccinations and for doctors to insist on "truly informed consent for (their) use...."&lt;br /&gt;In October 1999, Dr. Bart Classen, founder and CEO of Classen Immunotherapies, told Congress:&lt;br /&gt;"It is clear....that the government's immunization policies are driven by politics and not by science. I can give numerous examples where employees of the US Public Health Service....appear to be furthering their careers by acting as propaganda officers to support political agendas. In one case....employees of a foreign government, who were funded and working closely with the US Public Health Service, submitted false data to a major medical journal. The true data indicated the vaccine was dangerous; however, the false data" indicated no risk.&lt;br /&gt;In addition, "four letters from the FDA/Public Health Service....clearly reveal(ed) that the anthrax vaccine" approved for US military personnel was done "without the manufacturer performing a single controlled clinical trial." They're essential to determine safety and effectiveness. Failure to conduct them proved devastating to the health and well-being of recipients and still does today. Besides, all vaccines are unsafe and some are extremely dangerous.&lt;br /&gt;US military forces receive many or all of the following vaccinations:&lt;br /&gt;-- three shots for hepatitis B;&lt;br /&gt;-- two for hepatitis A;&lt;br /&gt;-- annually for influenza so all military personnel will get Swine Flu shots;&lt;br /&gt;-- all military personnel must have documented proof of receiving MMR vaccines for measles, mumps and rubella; those without them them get single doses;&lt;br /&gt;-- two varicella (chicken pox) shots;&lt;br /&gt;-- smallpox doses every ten years;&lt;br /&gt;-- three for polio for adults never vaccinated; those fully vaccinated get a booster shot;&lt;br /&gt;-- tetanus-diphtheria and pertussis vaccinations for personnel who haven't have them in the past 10 years;&lt;br /&gt;-- tetanus every 10 years;&lt;br /&gt;-- typhoid vaccinations in either oral or injectable forms;&lt;br /&gt;-- a multiple dose series for anthrax;&lt;br /&gt;-- yellow fever every 10 years in some cases;&lt;br /&gt;-- three for rabies and later boosters;&lt;br /&gt;-- tuberculosis screening and shots;&lt;br /&gt;-- single pneumococcal doses;&lt;br /&gt;-- meningococcal vaccinations every five years before deployment to certain regions; and&lt;br /&gt;-- three Japanese encephalitis doses in some cases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Multiple vaccinations for all US military personnel practically assures damage to their immune systems and severe health problems later on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Truth No. 10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Public health officials approve dangerous vaccines on unsuspecting recipients and profit handsomely for their efforts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Final Comments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All vaccines are biological weapons that weaken or destroy the human immune system. They often fail to protect against diseases they're designed to prevent and often cause them. The H1N1 vaccine is experimental, untested, toxic, extremely dangerous, and essential to avoid even if mandated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a December 1994 Medical Post article, Dr. Guylaine Lanctot said:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"The medical authorities keep lying. Vaccination has been a disaster on the immune system. It actually causes a lot of illnesses. We are actually changing our genetic code through vaccination....100 years from now we will know that the biggest crime against humanity was vaccines." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Dr. Viera Scheibner is internationally known as perhaps the leading expert on adverse vaccine reactions. Her analysis concluded that &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;"there is no evidence whatsoever of the ability of vaccines to prevent any diseases. To the contrary, there is a great wealth of evidence that they cause serious side effects." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nonetheless, immunization programs proliferate because the profit potential is enormous despite growing numbers of reputable scientific figures citing concerns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently, over 200 new vaccines are being developed "for everything from birth control to (curbing) cocaine addiction." Around half of them are in clinical trials using human guinea pigs putting their health and safety on the line unwittingly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New delivery systems are also being developed that include nasal sprays, mosquitoes, and genetically engineered fruits containing vaccine viruses. With every country in the world a potential buyer, health and safety considerations are suppressed for the sake of profits. Unless somehow this madness is stopped, the harm to our children and society will be catastrophic.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-432924704888338617?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/432924704888338617/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/08/vaccination-myths-and-truths.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/432924704888338617'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/432924704888338617'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/08/vaccination-myths-and-truths.html' title='Vaccination Myths and Truths'/><author><name>-matt</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17768824109359229304</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VbYkytJgb6I/SnkPFLB2eqI/AAAAAAAAALc/1pdmkEKhM7I/s72-c/Promosmall.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-3241992108570122882</id><published>2009-04-27T11:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-27T11:33:27.411-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Baxter To Develop Swine Flu Vaccine Despite Their "Oops" On Unleashing The Bird Flu On The World</title><content type='html'>A U.S. based pharmaceutical company that just weeks ago was involved in a scandal involving vaccines tainted with deadly avian flu virus has been chosen to head up efforts to produce a vaccine for the Mexican swine flu that has seemingly migrated into the U.S. and Europe. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Baxter confirmed over the weekend that it is working with the World Health Organization on a potential vaccine to curb the deadly swine flu virus that is blamed for scores of deaths in Mexico and has emerged as a threat in the U.S., reports the &lt;a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-baxter-swine-flu-27-apr27,0,3579388.story"&gt;Chicago Tribune&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Baxter has previously worked with governments all over the globe to develop and produce vaccines to protect against infectious disease or potential threats from bioterrorism. After 9/11 Baxter helped supply stockpiles of a smallpox vaccine and in 2003 the company was contracted to develop a vaccine to combat the SARS virus. In 2006 the UK Government announced plans designed to inoculate every person in the country with Baxter's vaccines in the event of a flu pandemic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, Baxter has a very recent and most disturbing connection to flu vaccines. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As reported by multiple sources last month, including the &lt;a href="http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Health--Science/Science/Virus-mix-up-by-lab-could-have-resulted-in-pandemic/articleshow/4230882.cms"&gt;Times of India&lt;/a&gt;, vaccines contaminated with deadly live H5N1 avian flu virus were distributed to 18 countries last December by a lab at an Austrian branch of Baxter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was only by providence that the batch was first tested on ferrets in the Czech Republic, before being shipped out for injection into humans. The ferrets all died and the shocking discovery was made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.911blogger.com/node/19517"&gt;Czech newspapers&lt;/a&gt; immediately questioned whether the events were part of a conspiracy to deliberately provoke a pandemic, following up on accusations already made by health officials in other countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Initially, Baxter attempted to stonewall questions by invoking “trade secrets” and refused to reveal how the vaccines were contaminated with H5N1. After increased pressure they then claimed that pure H5N1 batches were sent by accident.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the probability of mixing a live virus biological weapon with vaccine material by accident is virtually impossible, this leaves no other explanation than that the contamination was a deliberate attempt to weaponize the H5N1 virus to its most potent extreme and distribute it via conventional flu vaccines to the population who would then infect others to a devastating degree as the disease went airborne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact that Baxter mixed the deadly H5N1 virus with a mix of H3N2 seasonal flu viruses is the smoking gun. The H5N1 virus on its own has killed hundreds of people, but it is less airborne and more restricted in the ease with which it can spread. However, when combined with seasonal flu viruses, which as everyone knows are super-airborne and easily spread, the effect is a potent, super-airbone, super deadly biological weapon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed, some have already suggested that the current scare could represent the use of such a weapon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now it has been announced that Baxter is seeking a sample of the potentially lethal never before seen form of swine/avian/human flu virus in order to assist the World Health Organization in developing a new vaccine, reaping billions in the process. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why should Baxter be trusted, when they have already been proven to be at the very least criminally negligent, and at worst a prime suspect in attempting to carry off one of the most heinous crimes in the history of mankind? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company has already put the safety of the entire human race at risk, and now, just a few weeks later, we're expected to invest our confidence in them and take their shots with a smile and a still tongue? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Mike Adams of Natural News has commented, "If you mail an envelope full of anthrax to your Senator, you get arrested as a terrorist. So why is Baxter — which mailed samples of a far more deadly viral strain to labs around the world — getting away with saying, essentially, 'Oops?'" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHO officials are reportedly still closely monitoring the investigation into Baxter's contaminated flu vaccines, seemingly they are not too concerned. Perhaps we should be.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-3241992108570122882?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/3241992108570122882/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/04/baxter-to-develop-swine-flu-vaccine.html#comment-form' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/3241992108570122882'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/3241992108570122882'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/04/baxter-to-develop-swine-flu-vaccine.html' title='Baxter To Develop Swine Flu Vaccine Despite Their &quot;Oops&quot; On Unleashing The Bird Flu On The World'/><author><name>-matt</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17768824109359229304</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976749783466600697.post-1975498509394016570</id><published>2009-04-24T20:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-24T20:50:58.746-07:00</updated><title type='text'>For the Pro-Vaccine people - read this if you dare - Eugenics at its best</title><content type='html'>According to the CDC, the human papilloma virus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted disease in America. More than 6 million women contract it annually, yet cervical cancer claims less than 3,900 women – most of which are due to not getting regular Pap smears. In the U.K., cervical cancer claims a mere 400 lives per year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is your risk of dying from cervical cancer so low?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because your immune system is usually strong enough to clear up this kind of infection on its own, and does so in more than 90 percent of all cases. The CDC even admits to this fact on their website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, as long as you’re getting regular PAP smears, cervical cancer can be caught in its early, and easily treatable, stages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the question begs to be asked: WHY is the HPV vaccine being pushed so vigorously when:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. it prevents a type of cancer that is very rare to begin with&lt;br /&gt;2. it protects against a virus that, 98 percent of the time, is not the cause of cervical cancer&lt;br /&gt;3. it prevents a type of cancer that can be easily caught and treated by promoting regular gynecological exams&lt;br /&gt;4. it offers less protection than what promotion of safe sex practices could accomplish&lt;br /&gt;5. it is promoted to girls years before becoming sexually active, even though the vaccine may only offer about three years worth of protection&lt;br /&gt;6. it prevents just 4 out of more than 100 strains of HPV; all of which your body can clear up on its own in 90 percent of all cases anyway&lt;br /&gt;7. it has NOT been proven safe. No one knows if it can cause cancer or infertility, for example&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And why would the feds go so far as to add Gardasil to the list of vaccinations that all female immigrants ages 11 to 26 MUST get before they can obtain a green card? We’re not dealing with potential import of bubonic plague here…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a New England Journal of Medicine study, the use of condoms reduces the incidence of HPV by 70 percent, offering FAR better protection than Gardasil, for example.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The HPV vaccine is a total head-scratcher of a mystery as far as what its ultimate purpose is, because “curing the rampant health disaster of cervical cancer” is certainly NOT it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And since when do we have to be vaccinated against cancer in order to be let into a country?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does the HPV Vaccine LITERALLY Mean “One Less”?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marketing geniuses are known to play on words and create slogans with quirky double meanings, and if you’ve been tracking the concerns raised about the potential hazards of Gardasil and Cervarix, the potential for these HPV vaccines to cause infertility – whether purposely or inadvertently – is being heard with ever increasing frequency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The federal government's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) has received over 9,000 reports of problems since the vaccine's introduction in 2006, which include at least 28 spontaneous abortions, and 27 deaths.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it possible that Gardasil’s cry to fame, ‘One Less’, is turning out to be nothing but a sick, ironic play on words?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anti-Fertility Vaccines&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The World Health Organization (WHO) and its subsidiaries have been actively researching and funding the development of contraceptive / anti-fertility vaccines that prevent full-term pregnancies to take place, for over 20 years. There’s even a Task Force on Birth Control Vaccines of the WHO!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, no anti-fertility vaccine has ever been placed on the market and promoted as such as of yet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead, as described in a 1993 journal paper published in The British Medical Bulletin, anti-fertility vaccines were being engineered “incorporating tetanus or diphtheria toxoid linked to a variety of hCG-based peptides.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The authors of this article state,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The fundamental principle behind this approach to contraceptive vaccine development is to prevent the maternal recognition of pregnancy by inducing a state of immunity against hGC, the hormone that signals the presence of the embryo to the maternal endocrine system.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Free tetanus vaccines that were offered to young women of childbearing age for years in countries such as Tanzania, Nigeria, Mexico, and the Philippines, were found to contain human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG), which causes spontaneous abortions if the woman becomes pregnant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the woman is not technically sterilized, once injected with hCG, she may never be able to carry a child full term thereafter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HCG-containing anti-fertility vaccines have also been pursued for more than two decades by the Indian National Institute of Immunology, and The Population Council of the Rockefeller University, among others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, there are no less than 50 research papers detailing research on “contraceptive vaccines” in the PubMed database.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One disturbing paper published in the FASEB Journal in 1993 states:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“… we initiated studies relating to possible mechanisms of action and potential side effects of this vaccine, which should be relevant to world-wide regulation of population growth.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So again, why the frantic push for the HPV vaccine, created for young, fertile women, when there’s NO solid, rational basis for its use?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Massive Brazilian Vaccination Program Raises Suspicions of Covert Sterilization Plans&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A much more recent case of illogical mass vaccinations against a minor health problem is that of the massive, mandatory vaccination program in Brazil, which has raised suspicions among international pro-life activists, who note that the program is similar to other vaccination programs in recent years that have included a hidden sterilizing agent in the vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The campaign to “annihilate rubella” began in early August this year, mandating rubella vaccinations for all women ages 12 to 49, and 12 to 39 for men; a total of 70 million people, despite the fact that only 17 Brazilian children per year suffer birth defects from the disease.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adolfo Castañeda of Human Life International notes that just two years ago, researchers found that the rubella vaccine used in a similar campaign in Argentina was laced with human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The suspicion that brought about the investigation [into the rubella vaccine] was caused by the fact that there were very few cases of the disease in Argentina, which didn’t merit a large-scale campaign,” Castañeda said, adding, “The ages for women are the same as those who received the vaccines in Nicaragua, where they included a hormone that sterilizes the woman who receives it, and similar to the age of those who received another sterilizing hormone in the Philippines.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Polysorbate-80 – One Less Mouse, Researchers Found&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, let me state clearly that there’s no proof of hCG being present in any of the current HPV vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am merely playing devil’s advocate as I examine the similarities between these other irrational vaccination programs in other countries for relatively minor public health concerns -- that turn out to have far more sinister agendas than mere greed – compared to the fervent, irrational push behind the HPV vaccine here in the U.S.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, Gardasil does contain Polysorbate-80 – a surfactant used in pharmacology to deliver certain drugs or chemical agents across the blood-brain barrier -- which has been linked to infertility in mice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Researchers Gajdova et.al. found that administration of Polysorbate-80 decreased the weight of the uterus and ovaries, and caused chronic estrogenic stimulation. The ovaries of the mice were also without corpora lutea (a mass of progesterone-secreting endocrine tissue that forms immediately after ovulation) and had degenerative follicles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what might the estrogenic effects of Polysorbate-80 be on pre-adolescent girls and pregnant women?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anti-Fertility Vaccine Ingredient Also Has Clinical Application in Cancer Vaccines…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A potential coincidence I find most disturbing is some of the more recent research detailing the use of hCG, and other molecules, in vaccines against hCG-producing cancers, such as – certain cervical cancers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One 2005 paper titled, Recent advances in contraceptive vaccine development: a mini-review published in the journal Human Reproduction concludes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“At the present time, studies are focused on increasing the immunogenicity and efficacy of the birth control vaccine, and examining its clinical applications in various HCG-producing cancers.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But research published just a few months ago in the journal Molecular Cancer states that the free β-subunit of hCG (hCGβ) – which was originally considered biologically non-functional -- has recently been shown to stimulate tumor growth, and lead to more aggressive tumors that are more resistant to therapy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, I’m mentioning all of this because it just goes to show that pharmaceutical companies have little or no clue of the extent of harm these vaccines might cause, especially long-term. Something believed to be completely non-functional or harmless can turn out to be a MAJOR cause for concern after more thorough investigation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example, Gardasil also contains L-histadine, and histamines have been found to increase clot production five-fold when combined with, guess what? Surfactants! (L-histidine can also pass through your placental wall to your fetus.) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granted, this laboratory investigative report titled Surfactants Attenuate Gas Embolism-induced Thrombin Production used surfactants like Perftoran, not Polysorbate-80, in their trials, but could Polysorbate-80 have a similar effect?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Could this explain why death from blood clots within hours or days is the MOST COMMON form of death after receiving Gardasil?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The HPV vaccine clearly has a lot of questions left to be answered. And those questions should be answered BEFORE pushing Gardasil on an unsuspecting public at the rate that it’s being done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be One Less to Get Gardasil&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this would be a more appropriate message to send out to young women: There is absolutely no reason to risk the serious side effects of this vaccine to prevent an infection that goes away on its own 90 percent of the time. And there’s no guarantee that you’ll be protected anyway, since you can still get HPV once you’ve had the vaccine. It’s really a no-win situation for those who receive it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, you can radically reduce your risk of getting HPV in the first place if you follow safe-sex practices, or much more importantly wait to have sex until you’re married. Then, keep your immune system in tip-top shape, and it will be more than able to shake any HPV virus that comes its way.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976749783466600697-1975498509394016570?l=www.vaccineaware.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/feeds/1975498509394016570/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/04/for-pro-vaccine-people-read-this-if-you.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/1975498509394016570'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6976749783466600697/posts/default/1975498509394016570'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.vaccineaware.com/2009/04/for-pro-vaccine-people-read-this-if-you.html' title='For the Pro-Vaccine people - read this if you dare - Eugenics at its best'/><author><name>-matt</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17768824109359229304</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
