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) 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."”
Dr Mercola has this comment to make;
Why Doesn’t the U.S. Ban a Vaccine that’s Killing Children Overseas?
