H1N1 Vaccine Investigation, Like the Flu it Spreads
2009-11-08 05:27:00 Yes indeed, it looks like the questions have spread to the Provence of Ontario and the management of the Maple Leafs and the Raptors are on the hot seat. Explaining how professional athletes are considered high risk and have gotten H1N1 vaccines ahead of other Canadian citizens. Amid all the hysteria and investigation Canada's Chief Public Health officer Dr Davie Butler-Jones cut to the heart of the matter and explained it in terms we all can grasp. As reported on Healthzone .ca "the priority list was developed according to who was at greatest risk of getting really sick or dying from H1N1 and hockey players are not in that category." "We do love our hockey, but the guidelines are based...

Should Pregnant Women Really Get the H1N1 Vaccine?
2009-10-18 05:15:00 Last week, I was talking to a nurse who is looking forward to a new grandchild in about a month or so. The obstetrician had told her pregnant daughter-in-law that "by protocol, he has to tell her she is supposed to get the vaccine, but to tell her the truth, if it was his wife or daughter who was pregnant, he wouldn't let them get the vaccine." And after a personal endorsement like that from an obstetrician, who would get the vaccine? So what's the real scoop? Is he right? Or is the CDC right?Let me give you a hint...if you're a betting person, put all your money on the CDC.Yes, pregnant women really should get the...

Wayne Madsen video on Mandatory flu vaccine H1N1
2009-08-29 20:15:00 Here's journalist Wayne Madsen speaking on TV recently concerning the side effects and doubts about the H1N1 flu vaccine. This 'prevention' sounds too risky to me, how about you? And why did they use components that contain Mercury? If autism or paralysis are possibilities, you can have my share, because even scientists are saying 'No Way' to their families' being vaccinated!If they institute mandatory vaccinations across the nation, the US government will have a mess on its hands, right next to its da*n spot of guilt. Yet if any of the New World Order theories are correct, revolution is just what the power elites want for thinly veiled 'justification' for the extreme control they want to wield over us. Will revolt against submitting to H1N1 vaccinations be the catalyst for conflict?~:~Update 3:40 pm edt, Athens, GA: Here at the University of Georgia (UGA) some dorm students have contracted flu and have been sent home which I hope isn't what spreads the virus.Update2 @ 5:00...

In observing the virus over these many months, it has not morphed into anything more dangerous than what we saw in the Spring. The death rate...
Swine Flu vaccine memo leaks: paralysis possible
2009-08-18 22:33:00 Memo leaked!But are reactions only kneejerk 'Never Trust the Government' propaganda, perhaps backed by anti-Dem partisans? Of are reports of the serious health risks from the vaccinations of 1976 worth being concerned about?Personally, I'm inclined to opt out of the drive to inject, how about you? And for children? I'd sooner school them at home than participate. But I no longer have school-aged children running about the place. I shudder for the parents who must put their children's well-being on the line for a State that seems headed for the totalitarian model of draconian heavy-handedness.The phrase, Like lambs to the slaughter comes to mind. And people - even scientists - have been known to make mistakes that force others to suffer from their misjudgments. Any thoughts?

Vaccine against HER2-positive breast cance
2008-09-23 06:33:00 Scientists at Wayne State University have tested a breast cancer vaccine they say completely eliminated HER2-positive tumors in mice - even cancers resistant to current anti-HER2 treatment - without any toxicity. The study, published in the September 15 issue of Cancer Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, suggests the vaccine could treat women with HER2-positive, therapy-resistant cancer or help prevent cancer recurrence. The scientists also say it might potentially be used in cancer-free women to prevent initial development of these tumors........

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. "Tough sanctions are being proposed for parents who refuse routine vaccinations, such as MMR.In an article for the Fabian Society, leading public health expert Sir Sandy Macara called for child benefit to be linked with vaccination uptake.And Labour MP Mary Creagh said children should have to prove they are vaccinated before they start school to improve uptake of MMR.The Department of Health said vaccination was voluntary.Public confidence in vaccination, and in MMR particularly, fell after research raised the possibility that the jab may be linked to an increased risk of autism. 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 ...

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... |
