Do Not Inject Me ! Say No To Vaccines

In the past few months, the American public has been informed that two infant diarrhea vaccines – GlaxoSmithKline’s Rotarix and Merck’s RotaTeq – are contaminated with pig virus DNA. 1,2 But there’s a difference between the two vaccines: Rotarix contains parts of a pig virus that does not make pigs sick while Merck’s RotaTeq contains parts of a pig virus that kills baby pigs. 3,4,5

How many mothers know that, when Merck’s diarrhea vaccine is squirted into the mouths of their two month old babies, they are swallowing parts of a pig virus that suppresses the immune systems of baby pigs so badly, they waste away and can suffer respiratory, kidney, reproductive and brain damage before dying? 6,7,8

And how many doctors and nurses making babies swallow rotavirus vaccines know that?

And how many members of Congress, who are responsible for oversight of federal health agencies charged with ensuring vaccine safety, know that?

And how many mainstream media outlets are not covering this important story, a story that broke on March 22, 2010, when the FDA recommended temporary suspension of Rotarix vaccine because of contamination with parts of a non-lethal pig virus, only to withdraw the recommendation after a meeting on May 7th, when it was revealed that RotaTeq is contaminated with DNA from a pig virus that is lethal? 9

Why should we care about vaccines being contaminated with foreign DNA from deadly animal viruses?

Because it is a well known fact that DNA from animal viruses can infect human cells and change human DNA to cause disease in humans. 10, 11

Last fall public health officials declared an international pandemic emergency after a new pig-bird-human hybrid influenza virus was identified in Mexico and several people died. 12 Animal viruses can evolve to infect and make us sick and there are no guarantees that won’t happen because doctors are pouring parts of a virus that kills baby pigs down the throats of two, four and six month old babies.

Scientists working in the labs of Merck and the FDA don’t know if pig virus DNA will infect human cells and change human DNA so that the babies given contaminated rotavirus vaccines - or their children – will someday suffer immune suppression that damages lungs, kidneys, brains and reproductive ability before they die just like the baby pigs are dying today.

I attended the May 7th FDA meeting and made two public comments on behalf of the National Vaccine Information Center. 13 At that meeting I heard GlaxoSmithKline officials pledge to clean up Rotarix but Merck did not show up to answer any questions or make any public pledges.

A lot of experts sitting around the table used words like “we believe” and “we don’t think” and “there is no evidence” when they defended the assumed safety of contaminated rotavirus vaccines. Nobody seemed to know exactly how the vaccines became contaminated or why the tests used by drug companies and the FDA did not detect the contamination before they were licensed and released. Nobody seemed to know if the pig virus DNA was infectious or not, but then, quickly almost everyone at the table agreed the contaminated rotavirus vaccines should still be given to babies. 14

THIS is science? This is the kind of science we are supposed to trust to keep us healthy?

Drug companies are racing to develop vaccines that use human, animal, insect, plant and even cancer cells for production. 15,16,17 Living cells can be contaminated with viral DNA that could evolve in humans to make us sick or kill us. 18

Is Big Pharma seeking big profits putting pressure on the FDA, CDC and politicians to allow them to keep parts of deadly animal viruses and other potentially harmful ingredients in vaccines? 19,20,21,22,23

I think that is exactly what is happening. The bigger question is: will the American public let the pharmaceutical industry and special interest groups taking money from drug companies get away with it?

If you want to take action in your community to raise awareness about why vaccines contaminated with animal virus DNA and other toxic ingredients should be cleaned up, 24,25 go to the websites of the National Vaccine Information Center at www.NVIC.org and www.Mercola.com

It’s your family. Your health. And your choice. If we don’t protect our health and choices today, we will lose both tomorrow.
