Assembly Bill 10942, introduced at the request of Richard Daines, the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Health, calls for changes to the law in order to make recommended inoculation compulsory in order for children to attend school. The bill would also permit the administration of vaccines for sexually transmitted infections to minors without parental consent. Separate sections of the bill would come into effect next year with others becoming law in 2010. A-CHAMP, a national, non-partisan political action organization forme...

SICK MONKEYS: RESEARCH LINKS VACCINE LOAD, AUTISM SIGNS
2008-05-17 00:23:00 05/16/2008SICK MONKEYS: RESEARCH LINKS VACCINE LOAD, AUTISM SIGNSBY DAN OLMSTEDThe first research project to examine effects of the total vaccine load received by children in the 1990s has found autism-like signs and symptoms in infant monkeys vaccinated the same way. The study's principal investigator, Laura Hewitson from the University of Pittsburgh, reports developmental delays, behavior problems and brain changes in macaque monkeys that mimic "certain neurological abnormalities of autism."The findings are being reported Friday and Saturday at a major international autism conference in London.Although couched in scientific language, Hewitson's findings are explosive. They suggest, for the first time, that our closest animal cousins develop characteristics of autism when subjected to the same immunizations – such as the MMR shot -- and vaccine formulations – such as the mercury preservative thimerosal -- that American children received when autism diagnoses exploded in the 1...

Conflicts Abound In The Vaccine Debate - Is Your Child Safe From The Scound
2008-05-12 06:26:00 In response to a court case regarding Michelle Cedillo (one of thousands of families attempting to establish the connection between vaccines and their child's autism), Dr. Paul Offit, chief of infectious diseases at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania claims the apparent connection between vaccines and autism is "nothing more than a sad coincidence". Imagine being the parent (and there are many!) who watched their child's fast retreat into silence and disability following a round of vaccinations upon hearing this incomprehensible dismissal!Should all parents of children, believed to be vaccine damaged, accept that this remarkable timing is a mere coincidence? Should they stop sifting through the thousands of pages of research by reputable doctors and scientists exploring the topic of vaccines and its potential connection to autism and other diseases simply because Dr. Offit declared this epidemic to be nothing more than a SAD COINCIDENCE?So who is Dr. Offit?

Call for vaccine opt-out penalty
2008-05-11 10:13:00 BBC reports.

One ought to recognise that mothers have a responsibility for ensuring their children are protected Sir Sandy Macara, public health expertThe research has since been debunked, and a string of studies have concluded that the triple vaccine - which protects against rubella and mumps as well as measles - is perfectly safe.But immunisation rates are still well below the 95% needed for herd immun...

Flu Vaccine - Do You Really Need It?
2008-05-06 13:29:00 Many people think that flu is nothing more than a cold gone real bad. That is not the truth because unlike common cold, flu is a very serious illness.In fact, there are some groups of people for whom flu can prove to be fatal. Physicians have confirmed that in recent times the number of flu cases being detected in clinics has gone up. In the face of this it has become clear that flu vaccination is a good thing and should be administered as early as possible.For example, people over the age of 30 are able to move around and do not suffer much if they are administered the flu vaccine. This is in sharp contrast to younger people (over 30) who do not receive a vaccination and suffer from body pains, high fever, and are often bed ridden for more than a week. The worst part of flu is that you are unable to eat properly thus compounding your weakness.Without flu vaccination, the patients are likely to feel very bad not only physically but emotional and mentally as well. This condition can ...

FDA report shows problems at Merck vaccine plant

Inc.'s vast vaccine plant in Montgomery County. They also found instances of contaminated children's vaccines and complaints that were not always investigated at the West Point plant.Inspectors from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration spent 30 days at the plant between November and January and cited 49 areas of concern, including a failure to follow good manufacturing practices.The findings are detailed in an unpublished 21-page FDA report obtained by The Inquirer under the federal Freedom of Information Act.Independent experts who reviewed the report say it documents serious concerns in one of the country's premier vaccine plants.

2008-04-28 12:02:00 All four children who died after being administered the measles vaccine in Tamil Nadu on April 23 suffered severe brain haemorrhage resulting from an anaphylactic shock, an inquiry has found.This will be pointed out by the five-member expert team sent by the health ministry to investigate the deaths, when they submit their initial report to health minister A Ramadoss on Monday. Experts in the team said an anaphylactic shock - a severe, potentially lethal systemic allergic reaction - following a measles vaccination is highly rare and occurs in 1 out of every 10 lakh cases.Experts in the team said that anaphylactic shock killing all four children - within half-an-hour of being administered the vaccine around the same area - pointed to two likely reasons of why the deaths occurred - a human error resulting in mixing the freeze-dried vaccine with a different chemical in place of saline water or a contaminated vaccine containing a foreign protein like a bacteria because of being kept in ...

Some people are suspicious that it's connected to the vaccines. This person included. The science right now is inconclusive, but we have to research it."
CDC: Flu season worst in 4 years; vaccine didn't work well
2008-04-19 23:26:00 CDC: Flu season worst in 4 years; vaccine didn't work well By MIKE STOBBE, AP Medical Writer Thu Apr 17, 7:30 PM ET ATLANTA - The current flu season has shaped up to be the worst in four years, partly because the vaccine didn't work well against the viruses that made most people sick, health officials said Thursday.This season's vaccine was the worst match since 1997-1998, when the vaccine didn't work at all against the circulating virus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The 2007-2008 season started slowly, peaked in mid-February and seems to be declining, although cases are still being reported, CDC officials said. Based on adult deaths from flu and pneumonia, this season is the worst since 2003-2004 ? another time when the vaccine did not include the exact flu strain responsible for most illnesses. Each year, health officials ? making essentially an educated guess ? formulate a vaccine against three viruses they think will be circul...

Byron Richards on How to Prevent Vaccine Injury-Wakefield Gains A Well Know
2008-04-16 18:57:00 Adventures in Autism: Andrew Wakefield Gains a Well Known Supporter#links#linksHow To Prevent Vaccine Injury By: Byron J. Richards, CCNSource: http://www.newswithviews.comApr-il 11, 2008 It is a colossal failure on the part of our government to not warn parents of the actual risks associated with vaccines. The blind insistence that vaccines are safe and effective is not supported by science, at least for a significant number of our children. There are now 25,000 children per year developing autism (1 in 150), a problem that has expanded in direct proportion to the increase in vaccinations. How do you know if your child is at risk? The government’s primary goal appears to be to prevent parents, en masse, from refusing to vaccinate their children. To prevent such a “run on the public health bank” all caution is being recklessly thrown to the wind. American children are now the most vaccinated people in the world. What are we actually doing? The vaccination problem needs to be...

Folllow up on Vaccine Post: Is Thimerosal really gone?
2008-04-06 20:32:00 Today I was reading this post on Mom's Speak Up, about one mom's struggle with her daughter's serious reactions to vaccines, and an awful doctor who threatened, belittled and bullied her into a chickenpox vaccination on her child. You can read the post here. This mama ultimately decided to vaccinate her child, but with some thoughtful adjustments to the regular schedule (and other ideas to decrease her child's chance of a reaction). One thing she did say in the article that made me pause was this: "Thimerosal (mercury) is not 100% removed from vaccines. Even doctors in the American Academy of Pediatrics admit it is usually 90% removed, not 100%." And she cited this article from Reuters, which explains that Thimerosal has been phased out of most vaccines, but is still in flu vaccines (along with many other potentially toxic substances such as aluminum). That certainly got my attention since I have been assured that there is no thimerosal in the vaccines given in my pediatrician'...

Did You Ever Notice the Paternal Age Effect in Non-Familial Non-Vaccine Ind
2008-03-29 16:41:00 Thursday, February 28, 2008an affected first-born is seen most dramatically in the group of AGRE fathers who are 30–39 years The paternal age distribution of the AGRE fathers, whose first child is autistic differs significantly from that of the 'control' sample (P=0.005). A 2 goodness-of-fit test with 2 degrees of freedom was conducted using percents in the 'control' group age categories to calculate the expected values in the AGRE sample. The shift toward higher paternal ages in those with an affected first-born is seen most dramatically in the group of AGRE fathers who are 30–39 years inclusive, which is 54.7% of the distribution compared with the 41.9 % that is expected. We interpret this shifted age distribution to provide support for the recently reported finding by Reichenberg and co-workers that autism risk is associated with advancing paternal age.1: Mol Psychiatry. 2007 May;12(5):419-21.
