Health chiefs have been accused of failing to properly publicise the side-effects of the cervical cancer vaccine.
More than 400 pupils have suffered adverse reactions to the Cervarix jabs since the programme began in Scotland two years ago.
About a fifth of the reactions were deemed “serious” – but a leaflet issued to parents along with the vaccine consent form states that the side-effects are “quite mild”.
Jackie Fletcher, of Jabs, a support group for vaccine-damaged children, branded the lack of information “unacceptable”.
She added: “A number of parents have been in touch citing health problems with their daughters shortly after this vaccine. These include seizures, fatigue and joint and muscle pain. The authorities need to be honest so parents can make an informed choice.”
West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine MSP Mike Rumbles said he had written to Health Secretary Nicola Sturgeon urging her department to make all information available at the first point of contact. He said: “We have to get as much information to people who are considering this at the right time, which is at the beginning of the process. We want to get as many people vaccinated as possible and to do that we have to be open and transparent.”

Records Document 3,589 Adverse Reactions Related to Gardasil between May 2009 and September 2010, Including 213 Cases Resulting in Permanent Disability


WASHINGTON, Sept. 28 /Standard Newswire/ -- Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it has received new documents from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), detailing reports of adverse reactions to the vaccination for human papillomavirus (HPV), Gardasil. The adverse reactions include 16 new deaths (including four suicides) between May 2009 and September 2010. The FDA also produced 789 "serious" reports, with 213 cases resulting in permanent disability and 25 resulting in a diagnosis of Guillian Barre Syndrome.

Adverse report excerpts include:

  • A nineteen year old girl with no medical history except occasional cases bronchitis received Gardasil and in 53 days, had "Headache, Nausea, dizziness, chilling, tiredness, shortness of breath, complained of chest plain, severe cramps." She experienced an Acute Cardiac Arrhythmia. Attempts to resuscitate her resulted in a sternal fracture, but were unsuccessful and the patient died. -- V. 356938
  • A thirteen year old girl was vaccinated on July 17th, 2009. Ten days later, she developed a fever and was treated. However, "the patient did not recover and was admitted to the hospital on [August 8th]...She developed dyspnoea and went into a coma...she expired [that day] at around 9:00 pm. The cause of death was determined as 'death due to viral fever.' ... This event occurred after 23 days of receiving first dose of Gardasil. -- V. 380081

India has seen three vaccine disasters this year, resulting in 4 deaths after the measles vaccine and six deaths after the HPV vaccine, so it any wonder that the the citizens of India are wary of having the H1N1 vaccine?

The Times of India report that a pharmacy manager in Virugambakkam told them that he had sold a mere four vials of the H1N1 vaccine in a month, with the capital New Dehli pharmacists reporting a similar story. To try and rectify the situation, the government of India, plan on opening vaccine clinics to entice people to take up the vaccine. In their article 'With no takers to H1N1 vaccine, govt to start special clinic' The Times spoke to the health secretary VK Subburaj of India who said :-

"We assume that people don't go in for vaccination as there are not many centres offering them. We are planning to set up a clinic exclusively for H1N1 vaccination. Since we are planning to do bulk purchases, we are also talking to pharmaceutical companies to provide the drug at a reduced cost,"

Prison Planet however, reported that the Indian public were rejecting the H1N1 vaccine through the fear of the side effects. In their article 'India Rejects H1N1 shots after vaccines kill children' by Paul Joseph Watkins, Watkins reported that the rejections of the vaccine en masse, followed reports that the measles vaccine killed four children in the village of Lucknow, He wrote:-

A new report by the National Coalition of Organized Women (NCOW), states, that as many as 3,587 cases, may of either miscarried or had a stillbirth after receiving the H1N1 vaccine.

In an exceptionally strong and well executed report, written on the Child Health Safety Website entitled 'Flu Vaccine Caused 3,587 US Miscarriages from H1N1 Vaccine,' they say :-

"The corrected estimate for the total number of 2009-A-H1N1-flu-shot-associated miscarriages and stillbirths during the 2009/10-flu season is 1,588 (95% goodness-of-fit confidence interval, 946 to 3587). That is, the lower and upper range-probability of miscarriage and stillbirths due to the H1N1 vaccine was as low as 946 and as high as 3,587.

Eileen Dannemann, Director of NCOW, presented the findings for the second time to Dr. Marie McCormick, chair of the Vaccine Risk and Assessment Working Group, during the Advisory Commission on Childhood Vaccines (ACCV) meeting, Sept 3, 2010. Just prior to Ms. Dannemann´s presentation Dr. McCormick, had pronounced that there were absolutely no H1N1 vaccine-related adverse events in pregnant women in 2009/10, directly contradicting the evidence publicly available."

Despite these alarmingly high figures being made public, which have been fully backed up with reports taken from the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS), the Government still strongly recommends that this potentially dangerous vaccine, reported to have killed thousands of developing fetuses, to pregnant women of the USA.

Flu Vaccine Caused Over 1000 Adverse Reactions

Posted by ObeMike Monday, September 27, 2010 0 comments

by: Christina England

Yesterday, the Sydney Herald reported an astounding 1000 plus reports of adverse reactions following the flu vaccine, Fluvax. These reports included 100 reports of febrile convulsions.
In her report, journalist Carol Bennett stated:

“It showed the CSL-produced Fluvax and Fluvax Junior may have caused two to three hospital admissions due to seizure for every admission from flu it prevented”.

Febrile convulsions are caused when a child’s body rapidly overheats resulting in a seizure. The NetDoctor website gives insight into what a child suffering from a febrile convulsion looks like:
  • The attack often begins with the child losing consciousness, and shortly afterwards the body, legs and arms go stiff.
  • The head is thrown backwards and the legs and arms begins to jerk.
  • The skin goes pale and may even turn blue briefly.
  • The attack ends after a few minutes and the shaking stops. The child goes limp, and then normal colour and consciousness slowly return.
  • Some children regain consciousness faster than others.
If the Sydney Herald is correct, the Fluvax vaccine has the potential to give a tiny baby (many are premature) a seizure so violent it causes them to throw their head backwards, in a jerk like movement. The jerking action has the potential to cause damage to the neck, head and brain. Isn’t this exactly opposite of what we, as parents, are taught NOT to let happen to babies?
Let us step away from the vaccine, for a brief moment and study Shaken Baby Syndrome.

Doctors have been told not to use a particular flu jab on 110,000 children after it was linked with a tenfold increase in convulsions caused by high fever.

Children given the jab in Australia, made by CSL and marketed in the UK by Pfizer, suffered febrile convulsions in the following hours and days.

The letter to all GPs from Prof David Salisbury, said: "Epidemiological information from Australia indicates that there has been a higher than expected increase in febrile convulsions in children related to the use of Fluvax (manufactured by CSL).

The vaccine contains:
- The H1N1 virus itself
- Neomycin: Immunotoxin
- Polymyxin: Neurotoxin
- Sodium Deoxycholate: Immunotoxin
- Potassium Chloride: Neurotoxin

"This is the same product that will be marketed in the UK by Pfizer as Enzira and generic influenza vaccine for the 2010/11 influenza vaccination season.

Febrile convulsions affect around one in 20 children and are normally caused by an infection. The body reacts to the high fever with the child losing consciousness and their legs and arms jerk. They may go pale or turn blue briefly and after a few minutes the shaking normally stops.

The attacks can be very frightening for parents and children are usually admitted to hospital after the first convulsion to establish the cause.

In Australia, which is in its winter, stopped vaccinating all children under five when the increased rate of convulsions was found. It has since restarted vaccinating with other products.

A spokesman for Pfizer said: "The cause of the unexpected increased frequency of febrile convulsions remains unknown and investigations continue.

A spokesman for the Department of Health said: "As part of the Australian flu vaccination programme, a number of children were given a brand of flu vaccine known as Enzira (Fluvax in Australia). A small proportion of these children, aged under 5, had fits after they had this vaccine.

Editor's note:
Vaccine safety is a misnomer. Their lethality is not based on theory, conjecture or opinion...it is scientific fact. The safety of vaccines should no longer even be debated or addressed by those striving to accelerate the truth about these toxic injections. They can never be safe as long as health hazardous excipients are involved in their manufacture and flawed science is used to justify their medical administration. There is no such thing as a safe vaccine!

Australia's health authorities are failing to uphold the public safety of vaccines because of the confused and flawed monitoring of side effects, the Consumer Health Forum says.

In unusually outspoken criticism, the forum, which is funded by the federal government, has called for an urgent public explanation of why the CSL-produced Fluvax vaccine triggered a higher rate of hospital admissions than it prevented.

The forum's chief, Carol Bennett, writing in the Herald, said the saga over Fluvax, which has been linked to 1000 adverse reactions, including 100 cases of convulsion in infants under five, pointed to the need for reform.The Commonwealth's Chief Medical Officer, Professor Jim Bishop, issued a final recommendation against the use of Fluvax in infants under five, more than three months after the high rate of convulsions surfaced in Western Australia early this year.

The federal health department has distanced itself from the West Australian decision to administer Fluvax to all infants under five, stating it was outside the recommended national immunisation program.

The spokeswoman said it must be noted that ''all medicines, including vaccines, have a risk of potential side effects''.

The Therapeutic Goods Administration assessment was that the benefits of Fluvax outweighed the risks in the groups of patients for which it was indicated - that was children and adults with underlying medical conditions who could be adversely affected by the flu. (Editor's note: Actually the risks outweight that benefits, not vice versa.)

Ms Bennett also said there were clearly systemic communication problems between state and federal health bodies as evidenced by the three-week delay in the WA authorities reporting the increased problems with Fluvax.

Ms Bennett said there was also a perception of conflict of interest in the TGA's role as both assessing and listing drugs and then monitoring safety in a system that was funded by charges imposed on drug companies it regulated.

The department's spokeswoman said that the TGA was like all other Western medicine regulators in being responsible for both authorisation and safety monitoring of drugs and vaccines.

Britain Now Testing Experimental Vaccines On Children

Posted by wicked blu Friday, September 24, 2010 0 comments

Source: www.vaccinationinfo.com

Children in Britain have begun receiving a swine flu vaccine today as part of a two-week trial.

Researchers are hoping to use about 1,000 youngsters over the next fortnight to gauge which of two different drugs perform better.

Children aged between six months and 12 years are being recruited at five test venues in Oxford, Bristol, Southampton, Exeter and London.

One of the test vaccines – made by Baxter – is still awaiting approval from the European Medicines Agency, but could be cleared to be used this week. The other, Pandemrix – made by GlaxoSmithKline – has already been approved by regulators.

Professor Andrew Pollard, a head researcher at the University of Oxford, told the BBC one of the aims of the trial was to see which drug performed better when given to children.

"We are doing this trial to compare head-to-head the two vaccines which are going to be used in the UK against swine flu to see which one works best in children and which one is best tolerated," Pollard said.

"We are sort of in a race against time because we know the flu season is already started. We hope to immunise the children over the next 10 days or so."

Government data showed the number of swine flu cases across the country nearly doubled to 9,000 in the week beginning 14 September, compared with 5,000 the week before.

Nicolette Wolf, who is pregnant, brought her 17-month-old son, Reuben, to be immunised at John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford.

"It's very important for him to get vaccinated. Obviously I am pregnant and the least chance of me getting swine flu the better," she said. "If you can have the opportunity to have the vaccine, that's a good idea."

The government is hoping to start vaccinating millions of people in high-risk groups, such as those with asthma and diabetes, and health workers, next month.

Across the UK, 82 deaths have been linked to the virus, with 70 in England, nine in Scotland, one in Wales and two in Northern Ireland.

Despite any consequences, there's always a tremendous push by government and medical establishments to blindly vaccinate the public in the face of any outbreak of flu or disease. There is also the admission (from these same establishments) that every vaccine carries its own element of health risks. So if the intention is to protect public health by vaccinating, why is there never any intervention or policy on how to protect people from the vaccines themselves?

The U.S. has already purchased at least 312 million doses of two proprietary, patented adjuvants: MF59 from Novartis and ASO3 from GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). These purchases took place despite the fact that neither chemical has been FDA approved for use in a vaccine. The manufacturers have not yet even obtained FDA approval for Phase I clinical trials in the U.S., the first step toward approval of any new drug, vaccine or adjuvant.

On average, in both Canada and the U.S., it takes a little over a decade for a drug to move from preclinical development to the marketplace. Before a vaccine enters human testing, the developer conducts laboratory (in vitro) and laboratory animal (in vivo) testing to determine whether the product will be safe enough for researchers to proceed to clinical trials.

It appears that both the U.S. and Canada are prepared to skip all of the normally required safety and efficacy procedures and allow for the massive testing of this novel adjuvant on thousands of paid clinical trial participants in tests of the new H1N1 vaccine. This is despite documented government warnings that adjuvanted vaccines can induce more pronounced side effects than ordinary vaccines, a definite downside because vaccines, unlike most other pharmaceuticals, are given to healthy people.

There has been no confirmation, but many vaccine experts have speculated that the H1N1 flu vaccine ingredients will be very similar if not identical to the H5N1 flu vaccine which was also developed by GlaxoSmithKline. The biological index of that vaccine includes chicken embryos, formaldehyde, squalene adjuvant, thiomersal (mercury derivative), polysorbate 80 (preservative) and aluminum adjuvant among others listed on the Biotechnology Information Institute website.

The Public Health Agency of Canada has once again given their seal of approval for the injection of a dangerous cocktail of toxic chemicals they call a trivalent vaccine. The 2010/11 recipients of AstraZeneca's FLUMIST will be exposed to several strains of live viruses including H1N1 and H3N2. The vaccine also contains MSG and other known neurotoxins and immunotoxins.

Similar to last year's Arepanrix Vaccine, FLUMIST was approved without evaluating its safety and effectiveness on a single Canadian.

The vaccines are especially being promoted for children since the nasal spray vaccine can be marketed as less invasive due its intranasal delivery that does not require needles. Ontario's chief medical officer of health said a non-injectable vaccine is an "attractive option." The product has been on the U.S. market for the last seven years.

AstraZeneca Canada is currently ensuring that all Canadian pharmacies are making preparations to stock the vaccine this fall. The influenza vaccine will be one of several vaccines to be offered on the Canadian market.

On August 26, 2010, Health Canada issued a Notice of Decision to AstraZeneca Canada for the FLUMIST vaccine.

A vaccine being developed in conjunction with U.S. firm Celldex Therapeutics, claims to kill off the most deadly cancers including breast, bowel and cervical tumours. The problem is, it will also destroy a women’s ability to reproduce.


Professor Iles, of Middlesex University, stated that a form of Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is made by around half of bladder and pancreatic-cancers. Some breast, bowel, ovarian and cervical tumours also pump it out.

According to Iles’ research, the injection will rev up the immune system, directing it to destroy hCG. He claims this will shrink tumours and crucially, stops them from spreading, or metastasizing.

We've all heard the arguments, supposed solid evidence and near hysteria about the importance of vaccinating children to protect them from diseases. Unfortunately, not only are there sometimes serious side effects associated with many vaccinations but now it turns out that infants who receive vaccinations to protect them from ear infection and sinusitis are more likely to come down with what can be a dangerous form of an antibiotic-resistant infection.

According to research just published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), infants who received heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccination (PCV-7, brand name Prevnar ) at 2, 4, and 11 months were far more likely than unvaccinated babies to become infected with pneumococcal serotype 19A -- a strain of bacteria that appears to be turning into a superbug because it is quickly developing resistance to multiple antibiotics. Specifically, the vaccinated children had an increased risk of this type of infection in their nasal passages and the upper part of the throat behind their noses.

"A rapid increase in the presence of pneumococcal serotype 19A strains that are often multiresistant to antibiotics has been observed over the last decade. In the United States, serotype 19A is now the leading causative pneumococcal serotype of invasive and respiratory pneumococcal disease and the most frequently observed serotype in nasopharyngeal carriage," the research team from the University Medical Center Utrecht in the Netherlands reported in their study.

Update on The Investigation of Narcolepsy Cases in Sweden

Posted by ObeMike Wednesday, September 22, 2010 0 comments

source: lakemedelsverket.se

The investigation of a possible relationship between Pandemrix and reported cases of narcolepsy is currently ongoing in Sweden and several other EU-countries. So far 22 cases have been reported by the Swedish health care system and MPA is currently trying to assess back ground incidence of narcolepsy. Together with this update the MPA also provides a document describing how the overall investigation is being performed.

The MPA has up to September 2nd received 22 reports of narcolepsy from the healthcare system. In addition we have received 13 reports directly from patients or parents which have not been reported via the healthcare system. In the current investigation of the narcolepsy cases reported to the MPA it is important to understand if the reported number of cases of narcolepsy is higher than what could be expected in the population.

Expected cases of narcolepsy in the population compared to reported cases

Approximately 100 individuals have been diagnosed with narcolepsy each year in Sweden according to the data that the MPA has received from the National Board of Health and Welfare. The main part of these cases is diagnosed in the 20-40 years of age group. The last six years 7-16 cases have been diagnosed per year in persons below the age of 20.

Big Pharma Scores Big Win: Medicinal Herbs Will Disappear in EU

Posted by ObeMike Tuesday, September 21, 2010 0 comments

Big Pharma has almost reached the finish line of its decades-long battle to wipe out all competition. As of 1 April 2011—less than eight months from now—virtually all medicinal herbs will become illegal in the European Union. The approach in the United States is a bit different, but it's having the same devastating effect. The people have become nothing more than sinks for whatever swill Big Pharma and Agribusiness choose to send our way, and we have no option but to pay whatever rates they want.

Big Pharma and Agribusiness have almost completed their march to take over every aspect of health, from the food we eat to the way we care for ourselves when we're ill. Have no doubt about it: this takeover will steal what health remains to us.

It Begins Next April Fools Day

In the nastiest April Fool's Joke of all time, the European Directive on Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products (THMPD) was enacted back on 31 March 2004.(1) It laid down rules and regulations for the use of herbal products that had previously been freely traded.

This directive requires that all herbal preparations must be put through the same kind of procedure as pharmaceuticals. It makes no difference whether a herb has been in common use for thousands of years. The costs for this are far higher than most manufacturers, other than Big Pharma, can bear, with estimates ranging from £80,000 to £120,000 per herb, and with each herb of a compound having to be treated separately.

Forget the U.S. Constitution. Forget basic human rights. Forget the fact that research shows flu shots don't work most of the time (http://www.naturalnews.com/029641_v...). A group of the nation's leading infectious disease experts are demanding forced vaccinations for all healthcare workers.

That's no exaggeration, either. A position paper just released by the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA) calls for mandatory flu vaccine for all healthcare personnel. And if you work in the healthcare field and refuse? SHEA, which is organization of epidemiologists and infectious disease physicians, says you should be fired from your job or, if you are applying for one, denied employment.

The paper, published in this month's Infection Control and Healthcare Epidemiology journal and endorsed by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), specifically demands that influenza vaccination of healthcare personnel should be a condition of both initial and continued employment in healthcare facilities. In fact, according the SHEA paper, it doesn't matter whether a healthcare professional has direct patient contact -- or even whether he or she is directly employed by a healthcare facility -- they should be forced to have a flu shot to have a job.

A nursing home in Ghaziabad, where nine-month-old twin sisters Avika and Anika died after being administered measles vaccination a day ago, remained sealed on Friday. While the accused, Dr Satyaveer Singh, remained absconding, neither were new patients admitted nor operations carried out in the institution.

“The accused, Dr Singh, is still absconding and the Divya Nursing Home, where the incident took place has been sealed. No operation has been carried out today and new patients have also not been admitted,” Ghaziabad SSP Raghubir Lal said.

Sunil Sharma’s twin daughters were brought to the nursing home for vaccination. After 15 minutes of the vaccine being administered, they began breathing heavily and died. When the doctors failed to provide a satisfactory explanation, the family lodged a complaint.

Under new Wyoming Department of Health rules, parents need to provide proof that their school children received required immunizations within the first 30 days after school begins.

Students who have not turned in an immunization record or are not up-to-date on their immunizations will not be allowed to attend school. Students in the process of completing an immunization series may continue to attend school.

Wyoming does offer limited medical and religious exemptions from the state's immunization rules. Should a disease outbreak occur in a school, students with religious or medical immunization exemptions will not be able to go to school until the outbreak is over. If a student has had chickenpox, parents, guardians, school nurses or physicians may sign a verification statement for the student's school record.

It's A Swine Mess

Posted by ObeMike 0 comments

source: newsoftheworld.co.uk

MILLIONS of people will be given a secret swine flu jab by health bosses this winter.

The H1N1 vaccine will be mixed into the regular flu jab for OAPs, pregnant women and others at high risk.

While millions refused to take the jab during last winter's pandemic, this time they will have no choice if they want to be protected against normal flu.

The Government was left with more than 30million swine flu vaccines after the pandemic fizzled out in 2010.

Some types of swine flu vaccinations are suspected of being linked to an increase in the rare condition narcolepsy, which causes sufferers to suddenly fall asleep at random times.

In Finland, one brand - Pandemrix, produced by GlaxoSmithKline - was banned, and officials in Sweden have started a Europe-wide investigation into it.

An NHS spokesman said that while the pandemic of the H1N1 swine flu virus was over, the disease was still a threat.

The Department of Health said the Medicines and Healthcare Regulatory Authority, which monitors vaccines, had given the H1N1 jab the all-clear after fears in Europe over the narcolepsy outbreak.

She added: "By March this year, that particular H1N1 vaccine had been given out 5.5million times and there have been no reported cases of narcolepsy in Britain."

Doctor Nancy Snyderman, a very attractive, gregarious and outgoing physician, has real TV presence in more ways than one. Friday, September 17, 2010 Dr. Snyderman appeared on the MSNBC Today Show and promoted vaccines in a segment titled Vaccines 101 in a manner to which I personally took umbrage, especially when she said there was a small amount of medicine in the shot and the “rest is water or salt water.” Hel-l-l-o-o-o!

To hear Doctor Snyderman’s remarks that made me wonder, please access this link http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/36691058/vp/39211550#39211550 . It’s a little over six minutes of what I call “medical spin” that sounds valid but, inadvertently, I think misleads because of non-disclosure. Why? Well, my answer is this.

I’ve been researching consumer health for over thirty-five years and I’ve found more in vaccines than I think Doctor Snyderman may want the public to know about or healthcare consumers have the right to know.

For example, cells from aborted human fetuses. I’m certain if most parents knew that about vaccines, they would have second thoughts about getting their kids vaccinated. How does the Roman Catholic Church regard the use of aborted fetuses in vaccines since it opposes abortion? Good question?

Flu shots triggered seizures in young Australian children, causing more harm than benefit, according to a study released this week in the epidemiology journal Eurosurveillance.


The flu vaccine, more commonly known as Fluvax, produced about four cases of febrile seizures per 1,000 vaccinated children in Australia during the months of March and April 2010, according to the report.

Fluvax “caused two or three hospital admissions due to febrile convulsions for every hospital admission due to influenza prevented,” scientists wrote.

DIY Flu Shots Should Be DOA

There’s no such thing as a safe and effective flu shot… but that hasn’t stopped researchers from trying to find new ways to give it to more people just the same.

Now, they’re working on poison in a patch — a flu shot you can slap on yourself, no doctor or nurse necessary.

I can picture the public service announcements now: GO STICK YOURSELF!

Instead of the usual hypodermic needle, the flu patch described in Clinical and Vaccine Immunology is delivered via 100 tiny microneedles that dissolve as the vaccine enters your body.

In a study on mice, researchers say their new patch gave the rodents flu “immunity” on par with — or better than — the traditional vaccine injection.

Talk about setting the bar low — the flu shot itself is only barely effective in the best of times, and completely ineffective the rest of the time.

I wouldn’t brag about matching that.

The researchers say their do-it-yourself vaccinations will bring the shot to more people by doing away with the worst part of the experience: the needle.

But who are they kidding? The worst part of the shot isn’t the sting of the needle — it’s what’s inside it, because these vaccinations can leave you in a world of hurt whether you feel that prick or not.

If scientists discovered something that worked better than vaccines at preventing influenza, you'd think they would jump all over it, right? After all, isn't the point to protect children and adults from influenza?

A clinical trial led by Mitsuyoshi Urashima and conducted by the Division of Molecular Epidemiology in the the Department of Pediatrics at the Jikei University School of Medicine Minato-ku in Tokyo found that vitamin D was extremely effective at halting influenza infections in children. The trial appears in the March, 2010 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Am J Clin Nutr (March 10, 2010). doi:10.3945/ajcn.2009.29094)

The results are from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving 334 children, half of which were given 1200 IUs per day of vitamin D3. In other words, this was a "rigorous" scientific study meeting the gold standard of scientific evidence.

In the study, while 31 of 167 children in the placebo group contracted influenza over the four month duration of the study, only 18 of 168 children in the vitamin D group did. This means vitamin D was responsible for an absolute reduction of nearly 8 percent.

The World Health Organization is at it again trying to push mass vaccinations, this time on the people of China. But its efforts to "eradicate measles" by vaccinating 100 million Chinese children have fueled widespread protest by Chinese citizens who not only distrust their own government's health recommendations, but also believe that the vaccines are dangerous.


According to the Boston Globe, the Chinese government recently announced a ten-day measles immunization drive that sparked an outcry from concerned citizens over the safety of the vaccines. According to reports, internet bulletin boards have been overflowing with chatter about the campaign, and countless text messages continue to be exchanged among citizenry about potential dangers from getting the vaccine.

can it get any more absurd? vaccine for stress..

Posted by wicked blu Wednesday, September 15, 2010 0 comments

CALIFORNIAN scientists believe they are closing in on the first vaccine for stress.

The goal is to produce a single injection that would help us relax without slowing down.

The quest for the lifetime cure to stress is being led by Robert Sapolsky, professor of neuroscience at Stanford University, who after 30 years of research believes he can now alter the brain chemistry to create "focused calm".

Dr Sapolsky says he is on the path to a genetically engineered alternative to yoga, pills and advice to relax - itself a recognised cause of tension.

After early setbacks, the Stanford team has adapted a herpes virus to carry engineered "neuroprotective" genes deep into the brain to neutralise the rogue hormones before they can damage the brain. The virus is now shown to work on rats.

"To be honest, I'm still amazed that it works," Dr Sapolsky recently told Wired magazine. He warns that human trials are years away, "but we have proved that it's possible. We can reduce the neural damage caused by stress".

Last week a colleague, calling the potential vaccine "the Sapolsky Shot", was jubilant: "In humans, this engineered virus would short-circuit the neural feedback caused by stress, that lingering feeling of tension after a crisis has passed.

"It would leave you fresher and ready to deal with another threat; so you can maintain your drive, but with more focused calm rather than bad temper and indigestion. This could change society."

Casualty departments are dealing with dozens of emergency cases where infants are having seizures as a direct result of not getting enough Vitamin D, which is essential for healthy teeth and bones. In one case, a baby suffered brain damage after a fit.

Gwyneth Paltrow, the actress, disclosed recently that she was diagnosed with very poor vitamin D levels after years of keeping her skin covered Photo: GETTY

The study said the extreme cases are part of an escalating problem of a deficiency of the vitamin, which the body makes when exposed to sunlight.

The report in the London Journal of Primary Care blames indoor lifestyles and the use of high sun protection factor creams for a health issue unheard of a decade ago.

The findings have prompted experts to call for vitamin D pills to be made more widely available on the NHS, especially for pregnant women.

The study reveals the introduction of schemes offering mothers supplements has been slow. Some areas of London have no vitamin packs available and people are ignorant about the benefits of vitamin D, which is also found in oily fish, liver and eggs.

Colin Michie, a co-author of the study, said vitamin D deficiency was no longer a “poor” problem and the middle classes are just as vulnerable.

Medical Mystery or Hoax: Did Cheerleader Fake a Muscle Disorder?

Posted by wicked blu Tuesday, September 14, 2010 1 comments

Desiree Jennings was living a dream come true. The 25-year-old had a marketing job at a major company, was married to a handsome, successful man, and had challenging hobbies: she was an avid runner, and a cheerleading ambassador for the Washington Redskins football team.

But almost overnight Jennings went from the picture of happiness and health, to a twisted, stuttering vision of pain and suffering.

After a routine flu shot last fall, Jennings said she began experiencing fever and painful body aches. The symptoms quickly progressed until she could only walk with a twisted, halting gait, and had trouble reading, doing simple math -- even remembering things. Her condition put a halt on her once-frenetic lifestyle.

"I want to work, I want to be doing something," she said. "But who's going to hire somebody who can't remember what they did the day before?"

Jennings developed another odd symptom -- a strange foreign accent; the Midwestern woman suddenly sounded British. "It sounds like an accent, but it's not. I just can't pronounce words anymore," she said.

But perhaps worse of all is what happens when Jennings tried to recall specific memories. In her "20/20" interview, Jennings' speech devolved to stuttering, then complete gibberish.

AFTER five cycles of IVF and years trying to start a family, baby Jayden was a "miracle child" to his parents Ty and Cyndi Lynch.



jayden lynch

AFTER five cycles of IVF and years trying to start a family, baby Jayden was a "miracle child" to his parents Ty and Cyndi Lynch.

But within weeks of his third birthday and just a week before Christmas, the active, happy toddler was dead.

He had been entrusted to a registered home-child care worker in Yamba.

An inquest due to begin this week will explore just how and why Jayden died, and in particular why WorkCover have never investigated the death.

"We want to know how a child can lose their life while at daycare," the couple said yesterday.

"Jayden's death has destroyed us, and we want changes made to ensure it never happens again."

Deputy State Coroner Scott Mitchell will oversee the inquiry into Jayden's death on December 15, 2008, at Maclean hospital.

Born without any health issues, at about six months old Jayden experienced his first seizure shortly after his immunisation shots.

But before his death doctors said Jayden had outgrown the condition and were about to begin a program of weaning him off his medication.

"Jayden was an active, vibrant, affectionate child who instantly made others smile," Mr Lynch said.

"We are hoping this inquest will provide some answers.

"All parents who put children in care expect they will be supervised safely."

The couple has pushed for an inquest or WorkCover investigation, sending letters to Premier Kristina Keneally and Police Minister Michael Daly.

"It shouldn't take 21 months after a child has passed away for Workcover to get involved," Mrs Lynch said.

It is understood Jayden's carer has not been sanctioned and continues to care for children in the area. She is not accused of any wrong-doing.

The inquest begins in Grafton Local Court on Wednesday.

Four children died in Indian villages during a routine immunization drive in August of this year. So far, a five-member inspection team has failed to ascertain the cause behind the death of the otherwise healthy children. (timesofindia.indiatimes.com)

Dr Mercola has this comment to make;

It is a sad tragedy when children lose their lives for any reason, but when previously healthy children die following what should be a safe and “routine” round of immunizations it makes the tragedy that much worse.

So far, investigators have little to say by way of explanation, except to state, “This is a case of adverse event following immunization … This is not a new phenomenon …”

No, it’s not new at all, because every vaccine carries a risk of injury and death that can be greater for some than others. Unfortunately, most won’t know that they’ll be affected until they suffer the sometimes permanent, or deadly, consequences.

And very often, the true causes of the adverse event are never really found, and certainly not addressed to prevent them from reoccurring in the future. Instead, death and illness following vaccination continues, with many simply brushed off as coincidence.

Just How Common are Serious, and Deadly, Vaccine Reactions?

What happened to the children in India has happened in countries all over the world. In Argentina just two years ago, 12 infants died after receiving a pneumonia vaccine that was part of a clinical trial. That same year, a 6-year-old girl from the U.S. died after receiving the FluMist vaccine, while dozens of young girls have died after receiving the Gardasil vaccine.

There were also numerous reports of deaths linked to the swine flu vaccine last year, but all were deemed to be the result of other underlying medical conditions, a common scapegoat for vaccine reactions.

But as Barbara Loe Fisher, founder of the National Vaccine Information Center, recently stated:

“The truth is, nobody knows how many vaccine victims there are in America, how many of the 1 in 6 learning disabled children; or the 1 in 9 with asthma; or the 1 in 100 who develop autism; or the 1 in 450 who become diabetic, can trace their chronic inflammation, disease and disability back to vaccine reactions that have been dismissed by public health officials and doctors for the past century as just "a coincidence."”

The American Academy of Pediatrics is expected to recommend that health workers be required to receive flu vaccinations. The proposal will revive the debate of the legality and ethics of mandatory vaccinations.

For the academy, which represents 60,000 pediatricians, the vaccination is a matter of patient safety. Last year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported, just one-third of the nation's health care workers received the swine flu vaccine and a third receive it as well as the seasonal flu shot.

Nurses have the lowest rate of vaccinations, according to Gregory Poland, director of the Mayo Clinic's vaccine research group, who also helped write the policy recommendation.

Last year, the flu killed more than 23,000 people and hospitalized 200,000. The shots protect health care workers as well as those with whom they come in contact.

Other organizations have endorsed mandatory vaccinations, including the National Patient safety Foundation, the Infectious Diseases Society of America and the Society of Healthcare Epidemiologists.

The American Nurses Association, though, is one organization opposed to the policy. It encourages nurses to receive the vaccinations but has objected to making it mandatory.

Opponents see vaccinations as a matter of personal choice. But supporters point out that such choices are often restricted in the interest of the public welfare as for children who receive vaccinations against several infectious diseases.

Health care workers last year resisted attempts by New York state officials to force them to be vaccinated or lose their jobs. Several public employee unions successfully obtained restraining orders blocking the plan, which state leaders later withdrew.

The academy's proposal, though, could put the issue back on the courts' agenda.

Error caused Bangladeshi infant vaccine deaths

Posted by wicked blu Wednesday, September 8, 2010 0 comments

Vaccine

An investigation into the deaths of three infants in Bangladesh that occurred only hours after they received measles vaccinations has concluded that “programmatic error” was the most likely cause.

The infants, all around the age of ten months, received the vaccinations at the Kalikapur Health Clinic at Hizla. The clinic was faulted for its lack of monitoring and failing to maintain a proper serial number registry of the vaccines it used on patients, according to the New Nation.

Anil Chandra Datta, the region’s civil surgeon, said the New Nation that a detailed report is forthcoming, pending the results of the autopsies. He said that the investigation committee has visited the clinic, collected evidence and recorded the statements of those involved. The bodies of the infants have been returned to their relatives.

The primary investigation revealed that an assistant health worker named Taslima violated program rules by using an Indian-made vaccine from a partially used vial that may not have been properly preserved or that may have not been used within the proper time-frame.

Because there is no serial number registry, the New Nation reports, it may be impossible to find which vial was actually used on the victims. It appears that vial was initially used for the vaccinations of three babies in an adjacent area who are still in good health.

The families of the victims have been offered financial assistance and are calling for the trial and punishment of the responsible health workers. The bodies of the babies were buried in their home village after their return.

The term 'annus horribilis' for those of you who are not familiar, means a horrible year.

GlaxoSmithKline the drug giants, have spent the last few days trying to stay off the bottom of the FTSE 100, especially after the UK's Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency said that it's diabetes treatment Avandia should be pulled from sale, over concerns that it can lead to heart attacks in some patients. This came at a particularly difficult time for GlaxoSmithKline and was yet another nail in their coffin, as Pandemrix, their vaccine for the swine flu, is currently also under the magnifying glass, having been suspended by Finland, Sweden, Poland and Nepal, due to a growing number of reports of adverse reactions.

Of course these were not the only problems that GSK have encountered this year. Not so long ago the Rotarix vaccine was suspended by the USA, Switzerland and Jordan because it was found to contain pig virus. Although cleared of causing potential harm this could now upset some Muslim activist groups as they cannot have vaccines that contain pork substances.

Fluarix was another GSK vaccine to have caused difficulties this year and was banned by Australia altogether, after the vaccine was found to be causing children to suffer vomiting, fevers and seizures. The side effects affected some children so adversely that it left one poor child in a coma, causing Australia to take the unusual step of actually banning the vaccine.

Federal health officials are pushing hard this year to convince everyone to get the flu shot, but according to reports, this will only be possible if drug companies are able to produce the vaccines quicker than they did last year. So in order to make this happen, the government is doling out roughly $2 billion in taxpayer funds to Big Pharma to spur faster vaccine roll-out.


The hysteria over last year's supposed swine flu pandemic led to the development of millions of vaccines that were never used. By the time drug companies finished producing the vaccines, flu season was virtually over, leaving millions of leftover doses to rot in warehouses.

Just 19% take up swine flu jab

Posted by wicked blu Monday, September 6, 2010 0 comments

Just 19 per cent of Australians took up the offer of a free vaccine to protect them against the swine flu.

There was enough of the vaccine to inoculate the entire population against the a(H1N1) virus.
But it is estimated about only four million people took up the offer.

This was "much lower than the implied 50 per cent target required to contain community transmission", according to a paper published online by the Medical Journal of Australia (MJA) on Monday.

"Contributory factors may include the public's and vaccine providers' perceptions that pandemic influenza causes mild illness (or) negative media reports about vaccine safety and multi-dose vials."

Another factor could be the inoculation campaign fell outside of the pre-winter period when people typically turned their minds to getting a flu jab.

WA-based researchers assessed the number of pandemic influenza vaccinations administered from late September 2009 to late January this year.

It determined the vaccination rate in WA was "comparable to the national estimate of 19 per cent".

The researchers said the Australian government initially ordered 21 million doses of the vaccine, when it was thought two doses would be needed per person to provide complete protection.

However, testing showed one dose was sufficient and "thus, there was sufficient vaccine for the entire population and all Australians aged ten years and older were encouraged to be vaccinated."

The vaccine's roll out in WA "did not reach levels considered sufficient to interrupt community transmission", the paper said.

Another WA based study also published online by the MJA on Monday found pregnant women - who were identified as at particular risk of serious illness, even death, from the swine flu - also had a low take-up of the vaccine.

India has seen three vaccine disasters this year, resulting in 4 deaths after the measles vaccine and six deaths after the HPV vaccine, so it any wonder that the the citizens of India are wary of having the H1N1 vaccine?

The Times of India report that a pharmacy manager in Virugambakkam told them that he had sold a mere four vials of the H1N1 vaccine in a month, with the capital New Dehli pharmacists reporting a similar story. To try and rectify the situation, the government of India, plan on opening vaccine clinics to entice people to take up the vaccine. In their article 'With no takers to H1N1 vaccine, govt to start special clinic' The Times spoke to the health secretary VK Subburaj of India who said :-

"We assume that people don't go in for vaccination as there are not many centres offering them. We are planning to set up a clinic exclusively for H1N1 vaccination. Since we are planning to do bulk purchases, we are also talking to pharmaceutical companies to provide the drug at a reduced cost,"

EU Drugs Regulator Reviews Safety of GSK's Flu Jab

Europe's drug regulator is reviewing the safety of GlaxoSmithKline's Pandemrix flu vaccine, which has been given to more than 30 million people in Europe, to investigate possible links to a sleep disorder.


The European Medicines Agency said it had been asked by the European Commission to conduct the review after a number of narcolepsy cases were reported, mainly in Sweden and Finland.

Pandemrix has been used since September 2009 for vaccination against H1N1 pandemic flu, also known as swine flu, and has been given to at least 30.8 million Europeans.

Narcolepsy is a rare sleep disorder that causes a person to fall asleep suddenly and unexpectedly. Its precise cause is unknown, but it is generally considered to be triggered by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, including infections.

Vaccines Damage: The Answer No One is Looking For

Posted by wicked blu Thursday, September 2, 2010 0 comments

The greatest of medical detectives, the most loving of parents and the most genius of scientists can't seem to unravel the world of autism and the mystery of what may cause it. Now growing numbers of parents and doctors are declaring war to help find answers for the millions not yet touched by it.

As we searched for answers, we met some young warriors in the fight to defy science and stereotypes: Students of Miami's pioneering Victory School. Some of their parents share the nightmare Rick Blackburn lives. His son showed common symptoms of the onset of autism within days of getting vaccinated and was near death at only 18 months.

"We immediately took him to the emergency room and they couldn't do anything about the high fever, listlessness and the vomiting so they admitted him. Doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with him and they were warning us that he may perish. That he was not going to make it," said Blackburn.

In a scene reminiscent of a Brave New World and despite numerous concerns, health officials are advising basically everyone in the United States to get the flu vaccine.

The CDC is openly demanding that you take a vaccine that is, on record, extremely dangerous. Multiple countries throughout the world have BANNED flu vaccines due to their dangerous side effects. Australia, Finland, and Sweden have all either banned flu vaccines outright or opened investigations into their dangers. Why is the United States still pushing vaccines that have been linked to seizures, instant death, low IQ, and side effects that slowly kill you? The CDC has constantly followed the World Health Organizations guidelines, guidelines that were passed by control freaks who openly call for depopulation.

Flu vaccination ban goes national after fever, convulsions in children

More than 60 children around the state may have had adverse reactions to the vaccine, including fevers, vomiting and febrile convulsions – a type of fit brought on by a high fever.

This year alone has seen India suspend the Measles vaccine, the Cervical cancer vaccine and the HIB vaccine;, Australia, the Flu vaccine;, Sweden, the Swine Flu vaccine along with Finland;, and the USA, Switzerland and Jordan, the Rotavirus vaccine. What is going on? Last year the world faced a ‘so called’ pandemic of Swine flu, this year however, we are faced with an even worse pandemic of vaccine suspensions.

Can the companies manufacturing these vaccines be trusted or are they more interested in profit than protecting our health?

With five of the countries suspending vaccines that the giant, GlaxoSmithKline, has developed, it seems that the company GSK cannot seem to get its vaccines right at all this year. The first vaccine to present problems for GSK was the Rotarix vaccine. This vaccine is supposed to protect us from the rotavirus, a virus that causes severe diarrhoea and sickness, particularly in very young children. Rotarix was suspended in the USA by the FDA, together with Switzerland and Jordan because it was found to be contaminated with benign pig virus, Age of Autism said at the time:-


“Fortunately for patient safety, AP Medical News reported “A group of scientists testing a new way to detect viruses in a variety of products stumbled onto fragments of genetic material — broken pieces of DNA — from what’s called porcine circovirus-1 in Rotarix and alerted Glaxo, which confirmed the findings and in turn alerted FDA, Hamburg said.

The report stressed that the suspension of use has been recommended despite no evidence of harm.”


Eventually the vaccine was returned to the market after extensive testing proved that the vaccine was thought to be safe and that these viruses could not harm the public. The FDA put out this press release in June of this year:-
