Is prevention worth a shot?A cervical-cancer vaccine leaves parents with tough decisions
"Dr. Albert "Ben" Jenson, a researcher of tumor immunobiology at theUniversity of Louisville James Graham Brown Cancer Center and part of theoriginal team of scientists at Georgetown University that invented the HPVvaccine and holds the patent on it: "I can't think of a reason not to (getthe vaccine). The adverse reactions are very small. It's the firstvaccination to prevent cancer. My three daughters -- ages 42, 40 and 38 --are going to get it. I think every woman should have it. Maybe they don'thave it (HPV) now, but they could get it if their partner, no matter howcommitted, has (pause) flaws and brings the virus into the relationship. Ithink men should have it too -- to protect women." - Herald Leader, Lexington, KY
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
Merck's marketing strategy for HPV vaccine includes enlisting patent-holding scientists and paid Merck consultants to hype it as a lifestyle vaccine that should be pumped into the bodies of every pre-adolescent girl in the country. Just in case she forgets to wait until she gets married to have sex; or the guy she marries has had sex; or, apparently, just in case the guy she marries has sex with someone else while he is married to her. Can this marketing strategy get any more annoying?
And can these entrepreneuring vaccinologists twist themselves into a more convoluted pretzel with their junk science morality?
The truth is that most boys and girls and men and women who have had sex have been exposed to HPV and clear the virus naturally from their bodies and go on to lead perfectly normal, healthy lives. For the very tiny minority of women who, for unknown reasons, develop a persistent HPV infection, it can be identified through pap smears. Cervical cancer from HPV infection develops only after many years of unidentified, persistent HPV infection. Regular check-ups with pap smears are a much more cost-effective prevention than paying Merck and HPV vaccine patent holders $360 for 3 doses of HPV vaccine to inject into every American tweenager (Merck and the CDC are making noises that they want all pre-adolescent boys to get it too).
I can't wait to see the marketing strategy to sell the AIDS vaccine.
Study Finds Chemotherapy Damages Brain
In response to a story on CNN, October 5, 2006
Chemo has long-term impact on brain function, study finds
"Experts estimate that at least 25 percent of chemotherapy patients are affected by symptoms of confusion, so-called chemo brain, and a recent study by the University of Minnesota reported an 82 percent rate, the statement said. "People with 'chemo brain' often can't focus, remember things or multitask the way they did before chemotherapy," Silverman said. "Our study demonstrates for the first time that patients suffering from these cognitive symptoms have specific alterations in brain metabolism." - Reuters
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
It should be no surprise to anyone that when medical doctors inject toxic chemicals into cancer patients in an attempt to "kill" the cancer, it has long term effects on brain and immune system function. Medical interventions, from prescription drugs to vaccinations to chemo therapy, carry an inherent risk of injury or death. That is why no medical intervention should ever be forced on a human being without voluntary, informed consent.
Several months ago, medical doctors trying force a 16-year old boy to undergo chemotherapy against his will, persuaded the state of Virginia to prosecute his parents on charges of child medical neglect for supporting their son's decision to refuse chemotherapy. While a judge ultimately found the parents not guilty, the judge only set the boy and his parents free after turning them over to another medical doctor who promised to work with the family and not force chemotherapy.
Now that the brain damaging risks of chemotherapy are finally revealed, just like the brain damaging effects of anti-depressants, ADHD drugs and vaccines have been revealed, it is time to make it illegal for medical doctors to force medical treatment on U.S. citizens for any reason. There is no freedom more fundamental than the right to voluntarily choose what you are willing to risk your life or the life of your child for when making health care decisions.

Flu Vaccine Marketing Season Begins
National Foundation for Infectious DiseasesCDC Director Joins Nation's Top Health Experts to Urge Americans to Seek Influenza and Pneumococcal Vaccinations This Fall and Winter
Wednesday October 4, 2006
"Americans need to learn about the benefits of immunization. Forgoingvaccination can put your household at risk for complications like pneumonia,missed work and school days, trips to the hospital and sometimes death,"said Susan J. Rehm, MD, NFID medical director and vice chair of thedepartment of infectious disease at the Cleveland Clinic." - PR Newswire
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
Here come the flu fear mongers...just in time for the flu vaccine marketing season! The CDC's cradle to the grave approach to annual flu vaccination for all Americans starts at 6 months of age and does not end until the last breath is taken in the last year of life.
This national mass vaccination policy reaps millions in profits for drug companies. In fact flu vaccine makers depend heavily upon the success of the CDC's marketing campaign, which uses instilling fear and anxiety in the population as its main strategy for persuading all Americans to roll up their sleeves (or roll up the sleeves of their children) and buy the flu shot.
Apparently they are having a problem, though, because lots of Americans are voting with their feet and resisting the cattle call. Many do not believe the hype because the truth is, not many people die of one of the three type A or type B flu strains contained in the flu shot given in America every year. In fact, only 20 percent of all flu-like illness in any given flu season is actually the flu. Most of the flu-like illlness is due to other bacteria and viruses that cause illness looking a lot like the flu. The flu vaccine can't prevent that from happening.
In the old days, everybody got the flu that was going around that year and developed antibodies the old fashioned way. And then when that type of flu came around again a few years or decades later, immunological memory served as buffer so those who had already had experience with it either didn't get it again or it was a lot milder. The flu vaccine marketeers are using fear tactics to try to take away all immunological memory with type A and type B flu from our population. What will that make us? Vaccine dependent, of course.
The flu vaccine should be allowed to float free in the marketplace and be subject to the law of supply and demand. Taxpayer money should not be spent by government employees serving as de facto advertising agents for one of the most profitable industries in the world: the pharmaceutical industry. The danger in all of this is that when public health officials can't persuade the people to do what they want them to do, they have the nasty habit of making sure laws are passed forcing the people to do what they want them to do.
No doubt flu vaccine mandates are coming but, this time, it won't be just for the children.

Covering Up MMR/Autism Link
In response to an article in Pediatrics, October 2006, Reported by Reuters
New Data Refute Measles Virus Persistence in Children With Autism
"These data are a direct refutation of the reports of persistence of measles virus in the tissues of autistic children," he [Brian Ward, M.D.] said. "We are hopeful that this paper will simply put a quiet end to the debate surrounding this topic," the researcher added." - Reuters
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
It is understandable why a member of the Canadian Infectious Disease Society, who is an ardent promoter of forced vaccination with multiple vaccines, would want to do whatever he could to exonerate MMR vaccine from any association with autism. But does he really think his pathetic attempt to discredit the meticulous work of virologists and microbiologists in other laboratories will "simply put a quiet end to the debate" about MMR and autism? I don't think so.
How tiresome it is becoming to see yet another M.D./Ph.D. vaccinologist (or a group of them) issue a proclamation declaring that THEY have studied the reported link between vaccines and autism and found absolutely no association and, therefore, no more research should be conducted and the debate should "end." This kind of posturing only furthers public suspicion that they are covering up to protect the vaccine market and the mass casualties of their one-size-fits-all mass vaccination policies.
Calls for a moratorium on further scientific investigation into the causes and cures for any disease or disorder is reason to suspect that those who are calling for it are afraid of the truth.

Ear Infections Don't Need Antibiotics
From Web M.D. , September 22, 2006
Most Kids Ear Infections Heal Without Antibiotics
"Ear infections are the most common reason for antibiotic use among U.S. children, with 15 million prescriptions written annually. Antibiotic resistance is a growing worldwide public health concern that has been spurred by the widespread overuse of the drugs. “In this country, 96 percent to 98 percent of physicians treat ear infections immediately with antibiotics, even though most cases will resolve on their own without treatment" - David M. Spiro, MD, MPH tells Web M.D.
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
For the past 50 years, medical doctors have insisted that parents give their children antibiotics to "treat" everything from the common cold and ear infections to the flu and pneumonia. When in doubt, hand the antibiotics out was the philosophy of most pediatricians who saw young children in their practices. Now, we learn that when the immune system of a child with an ear infection is left alone to naturally participate in the healing process that follows an acute inflammatory response to infection, most children get well without antibiotics.
Like indiscriminate, mass use of antibiotics "kill" infectious microorganisms has put pressure on bacteria to mutate in order to survive, indiscriminate mass use of multiple vaccines to "eradicate" or tightly control infectious diseases is putting pressure on viruses and bacteria to mutate and become vaccine resistant. The B. pertussis bacteria causing whooping cough and the pneumococcal bacteria causing ear infections are two examples of organisms which are evading vaccines designed to prevent them from causing infection.
Rather than living in abject fear of microorganisms and trying to destroy them with drugs and vaccines, it might be time to take another approach that results in fewer complications. Working with nature by finding less toxic ways to augment and enhance healthy functioning of the immune system would be a good place to start.

Michigan to Force HPV Vaccine on Little Girls
From The Toledo Blade, September 13, 2006
Michigan bills push cervical cancer vaccinations for 6th-grade girls
"Because the HPV vaccine prevents a sexually transmitted disease, some parents and religious groups across the country have expressed reservations about vaccinating young girls. Ms. Hammerstrom said that she thinks parents are responsible enough to tell their daughters what they feel is appropriate behavior. She pointed out that hepatitis B is a virus most commonly spread through sexual intercourse or sharing drug needles, but that it is also required. "
"I would want to more about it, if there are any side effects, how long the vaccine works, if you have to be revaccinated," said Mary Dunnett, the PTA president at Bedford Public School's Douglas Road Elementary School. "I would want to know more about it before they made it [law]."
"Ida Public Schools Superintendent Marv Dick said required vaccines are good reminders for parents, but added that he thinks parents should be able to decide whether their child receives a vaccine...."I think parents need to have some input as to what happens to their children," he said. " -Toledo Blade
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
In 1991, the National Vaccine Information Center opposed the mandating of hepatitis B vaccine for school entry. Hepatitis B is a primarily adult disease transmitted through contact with infected blood during IV drug use and sexual contact. At the time, public health officials, pediatricians and drug company lobbyists persuaded state legislators to mandate hepatitis B vaccine for school entry because the CDC said infected kids could transmit the virus to other kids when they cut themselves and bled on other children or shared toothbrushes when they had open sores in their mouths. Now, the same forced vaccination lobbyists are persuading trusting but clueless legislators that mandating HPV vaccine for pre-adolescent girls in sixth grade will prevent cervical cancer when the girls become sexually active someday.
Why are the facts about HPV infection and cervical cancer being hidden from the public by forced vaccination lobbyists? Because acknowledging the facts about HPV won't get them more money or power.
The fact is that most sexually active women have encountered the HPV virus, naturally developed antibodies and cleared the infection from their body. A tiny minority of sexually active women go on to become chronically infected with HPV and, after many years, develop cervical cancer. Nearly 100 percent of all HPV associated cervical cancer can be identified through annual pap smears and prevented.
HPV associated cervical cancer deaths (4600 deaths annually) are way down on the list of leading cancer killers of women in America because annual pap smears have reduced cervical cancer deaths by more than 70 percent since the 1950's. The leading cancer killers of American women today are lung cancer (68,000 deaths annually); breast cancer (42,000 deaths); colorectal cancer (29,000 deaths); ovarian cancer (14,000 deaths); skin cancer (9600 deaths); and uterine cancer (6500 deaths). Although annual pap smears can prevent almost 100 percent of all cervical cancers, the forced vaccination lobbyists are trying to con thedia and the American public into believing they should force all 9 to 11 year old girls in America to get injected with three doses of HPV vaccine at a per child cost of $375 (not including the charge for the pediatrician's office visit) or be denied an education.
Mandating HPV vaccination for all young girls is nothing more than a boondoggle for drug companies selling vaccines and a national experiment on innocent children because there have been no long term studies to evaluate whether the HPV vaccine will cause autoimmune disorders in genetically vulnerable children (see NVIC's June 27, 2006 press release on HPV vaccine at www.nvic.org) Unfortunately, politicians have been persuaded to believe that introducing new vaccine mandates for school entry is a vote-getter. They do not realize that a growing number of voter parents justifiably view new vaccine mandates as another threat to the health and well being of their children, who are already chronically ill from too much vaccination.

Docs Say Old Dads Cause Autism
In response to an article in Web MD
Older Dads Linked to Higher Autism Rates
Tuesday, September 05, 2006
By Jennifer Warner
"A new study shows that children of 40-year-old to 49-year-old dads are nearly six times more likely to have autism than children of men under 30, regardless of the mother’s age...... In this study, researchers looked at more than 300,000 17-year-olds assessed medically and psychologically by the military draft board in Israel during the 1980s. They checked to see whether the age of the father contributed to the risk of autism in the young men and women." - WebMD
Barbara Loe Fisher Commentary:
Moving on from first blaming cold mothers and then older mothers for the development of autism in children, the M.D./Ph.D. researchers specializing in psychiatry are now blaming the presumably defective sperm of older fathers for the development of regressive autism in children. They are desperate to blame the iatrogenic autism epidemic on everyone but their M.D./Ph.D. vaccine-pushing colleagues specializing in infectious disease, public health and pediatrics.
In a retrospective study looking at 17 year old children born in Israel in the 1960's (when only polio, DPT and measles vaccine was being administered), researchers concluded that older fathers were more likely to have autistic children. It is unknown whether this finding could be replicated when looking at children born in America in 2003, when the numbers of doses of vaccines given to children had more than tripled.
Most children suffering from regressive autism in the past two decades have been born to young fathers and mothers who will struggle as older parents to provide support for their older autistic children.

Rattled Regulators, Injured Children
In response to a story by United Press International, September 26, 2006
The Age of Autism: Rattled regulators
By Dan Olmsted
UPI Senior Editor
The National Vaccine Information Center has been calling for reform of the mass vaccination system for the past 25 years. The FDA, CDC and NIH separately and together cannot be given the conflicting responsibilities of researching, developing, regulating, making policy for and promoting mandatory, mass use of vaccines. In addition, DHHS cannot be totally in charge of choosing, designing, and conducting or monitoring the implementation of studies investigating vaccine risks.
These federal agencies have a too-cozy relationship with the pharmaceutical industry and have turned into nothing more than public relations and advertising agencies for drug companies using taxpayer money to foot the bill. No wonder many federal public health officials retire from the FDA and CDC and go on to lucrative second careers as drug company employees or consultants. Sometimes they don't even wait to retire to dip into the BigPharma cash register. Some M.D./Ph.D. vaccine policymakers personally own patents on the vaccines they persuade the FDA to license and the CDC to label "universal use" vaccines so the states will mandate them and profit making will be immediate and unlimited.
And the M.D./Ph.D. researchers working for HMO's like Kaiser Permanente, which is often paid by theCDC and/or vaccine manufacturers to "study" vaccines and publish studies discounting vaccine risks, are just as guilty. (click here for the recent "study" whitewashing whole cell pertussis vaccine and measles vaccine risks, a piece of junk science that cannot hold a candle to the large, prospective case controlled National Childhood Encephalopathy Study,which found a statistically significant correlation between brain damage in children and receipt of these two vaccines).
Will Congress take a look into the dark corner of conflict of interest at federal health agencies and deal with it or did the IOM report skip this part?
We don't need to hold a pity party for "rattled regulators." Pity the poor families whose children's futures have been stolen from them by public health officials with their heads in the sand, their hands in the cookie jar and their conscience in the freezer. Pity a nation too afraid to hold M.D./Ph.D.officials accountable for writing off millions of chronically ill and disabled vaccine injured children as expendable in the name of "disease control" and the "greater good."

Voodoo Rituals, Toxic Mercury
In response to a Reuter's News Service Article on August 31, 2006
EPA: Quit Using Mercury in Your Voodoo Rituals
"Ritualistic use of toxic mercury by followers of Voodoo and other religions is dangerous but regulating it could drive the practice underground and possibly violate U.S. guarantees of freedom of religion, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said Thursday.......mercury’s toxic effects are pronounced in the nervous systems and brains of exposed children, and can damage organs and cause seizures in adults." - Reuter's, Aug. 31, 2006
Barbara Loe Fisher Comments:
OK, EPA, FDA and CDC, you can't have it both ways. Either mercury is toxic and it doesn't belong in the human body; or mercury is no big deal and we can eat and drink it, breathe and bathe in it, as well as inject it into our bodies with no worries.
How come you can close down schools when a kid breaks a mercury filled thermometer on the floor and you are going after practitioners of voodoo for using bits of mercury to ward off evil spirits, but you insist on injecting mercury directly into the bloodstreams of American babies through vaccination?
You are guilty as charged for practicing voodoo medicine and voodoo politics on the American people. Going after the First Amendment to the Constitution, which guarantees freedom of religion in America, is a clever way of deflecting attention from your regulatory responsibilities to insure that products consumed by Americans are free from toxic substances. Why are we subjected to laws which require us to inject mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, and phenoxyethanol into our children through vaccination? Leave the First Amendment alone and do your job.

"Ritualistic use of toxic mercury by followers of Voodoo and other religions is dangerous but regulating it could drive the practice underground and possibly violate U.S. guarantees of freedom of religion, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said Thursday.......mercury’s toxic effects are pronounced in the nervous systems and brains of exposed children, and can damage organs and cause seizures in adults." - Reuter's, Aug. 31, 2006
Barbara Loe Fisher Comments:
OK, EPA, FDA and CDC, you can't have it both ways. Either mercury is toxic and it doesn't belong in the human body; or mercury is no big deal and we can eat and drink it, breathe and bathe in it, as well as inject it into our bodies with no worries.
How come you can close down schools when a kid breaks a mercury filled thermometer on the floor and you are going after practitioners of voodoo for using bits of mercury to ward off evil spirits, but you insist on injecting mercury directly into the bloodstreams of American babies through vaccination?
You are guilty as charged for practicing voodoo medicine and voodoo politics on the American people. Going after the First Amendment to the Constitution, which guarantees freedom of religion in America, is a clever way of deflecting attention from your regulatory responsibilities to insure that products consumed by Americans are free from toxic substances. Why are we subjected to laws which require us to inject mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, and phenoxyethanol into our children through vaccination? Leave the First Amendment alone and do your job.
FDA Paid For By Industry
In response to an article in the Wall Street Journal, Sept. 1, 2006
Drug Firms Use Financial Clout To Push Industry Agenda at FDA
"For most of its history, the FDA was funded entirely by Congress. But in the early 1990s, companies unhappy with the pace of drug approvals agreed to pay the FDA millions of dollars in' annual fees to help speed its performance. Because the industry and the agency renegotiate every five years over the size of fees-and what they,' can be used for-drug makers can have considerable input, into which programs receive funding. Each time the arrangement has been renewed, the FDA has gained 'new funding. In return, industry has wrung concessions. In the 1997 deal, the review time for a standard application dropped from 12 months to 10 months. In 2002, the FDA agreed to a number of changes, including a new deadline for how fast the agency would respond to companies' requests for meetings' about their drug applications." - Anna Wilde Matthews, Wall Street Journal, Sept. 1, 2006
Barbara Loe Fisher Comment:
An FDA that is paid by the pharmaceutical industry to do its job is not an FDA that is looking out for the public's interest, it is the FDA looking out for its own interest and the interest of its funder: the industry it is supposed to be regulating. Shame on Congress for allowing the drug industry to bully and bribe the only federal regulatory agency standing between the people and toxic drugs and vaccines.
Unfortunately, most drugs and vaccines that have been fast tracked by the FDA since Pharma began funding the FDA in the 1990's are suspect and should have independent confirmation of their safety and efficacy. With FDA sold out to Big Pharma, the only way the American public can protect themselves is to "just say no" to drugs and vaccines that may not have been adequately tested by an FDA pandering to an industry in search of quick and easy profit making. With Congress failing to do it, Americans have no choice but to protect themselves from dangerous drugs and vaccines licensed by an FDA owned by Pharma.

The Slut Shot
A quote from an article that appeared in The Village Voice on August 17, 2006
"The National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) critiques vaccines and educates the public about the risk of serious reactions. According to its website, the NVIC believes that Gardasil was fast-tracked by the FDA without proper safety testing. Their chief concern is that "Gardasil contains 225 mcg of aluminum and, although aluminum adjuvants have been used in vaccines for decades, they were never tested for safety in clinical trials. . . . Animal and human studies have shown that aluminum can cause nerve cell death and that vaccine aluminum adjuvants can allow aluminum to enter the brain, as well as cause inflammation at the injection site leading to chronic joint and muscle pain and fatigue." The NVIC claims that 90 percent of study participants who received Gardasil and 85 percent who took the placebo (which, incidentally, also contained aluminum) complained of one or more adverse reactions including pain, swelling, headache, fever, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, diarrhea, and myalgia." - The Village Voice, Aug. 17, 2006

FDA Approves Spraying Meat with Viruses
In response to an article by the Associated Press and Forbes, August 18, 2006
FDA Says Viruses Safe for Treating Meat
In yet another stunning demonstration of callous disregard for the health of American citizens, a pathetically weak and useless Food and Drug Administration has given the green light to industry microbe hunters to spray cold cuts, poultry and other meats with a mix of viruses that are supposed to eat bacteria contaminating the meat without hurting anyone in the process. Right.
And the best part? Meat producers won't have to tell consumers which meats have been bathed in the viruses so everyone gets a dose eating a hot dog at a baseball game or frying up some ham and eggs for breakfast - whether they want it or not. And when Uncle Leo in the Bronx drops dead from a mysterious infection after eating an italian sub at a neighborhood picnic, the story will be: it wasn't the virus infected sausage that did it, it was - A COINCIDENCE. (But if enough people drop dead after eating virus infected meat, an enterprising drug company will probably develop a food vaccine and convince the CDC to mandate it).
In America, apparently the only way consumers will be able to protect themselves from FDA-sponsored contaminated meat is to become a vegan or go organic. It's an expensive alternative but a small price to pay to keep viruses, chemicals and hormones that don't belong in the food we eat out of our bodies.

HPV Vaccine Now, HIV Vaccine Next
LA Times, July 24, 2006:"Price negotiations between Vaccines for Children and Gardasil's maker, Merck & Co., will take at least two months, and it could be four to six months more before the county can send it to school districts, said Peter Kerndt, director of the county health department's sexually transmitted disease program. Kerndt said he will soon recommend to county supervisors that all female adolescents in Los Angeles County receive the vaccine unless their parents opt out."
Reuters, London, July 28, 2006: " Merck & Co Inc's Gardasil, the first vaccine to prevent cervical cancer, was endorsed by a panel of European experts on Friday, bringing mass vaccination against the killer disease a step nearer. Gardasil, viewed by analysts as a multibillion-dollar-a- year seller, is a new kind of vaccine that prevents cervical cancer by protecting against the sexually transmitted human papilloma virus (HPV)....Recommendations by the committee are normally formally approved by the European Commission within a couple of months."
LA Times, July 31, 2006:"Dr. Bradley Monk, associate professor of gynecologic oncology at the University of California at Irvine, said the best use of the vaccine would include giving it to girls and boys and all women and men, regardless of their individual risk factors. "We need to move toward a paradigm where this is a universal vaccine," he said in a commentary published in the latest issue of the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology."
BL Fisher Note:
In what is perhaps the most brilliant public relations and marketing strategy ever employed by a pharmaceutical company promoting the universal use of a vaccine most Americans do not need to prevent cervical cancer, Merck & Co. is in the process of pulling off one of the biggest money making schemes in the history of medicine. The Big Pharma giant that brought us death by Vioxx has convinced the FDA, CDC, public school officials and gynecology professors as well as the entire European Union that every man and woman in the world must purchase and be injected with the HPV vaccine in order to survive.
Never mind that the majority of all sexually active humans are asymtomatically infected with HPV and go on to successfully produce antibodies and clear it from their bodies without any residual negative health effects whatsoever. Never mind that only 12,000 American women get HPV related cervical cancer every year because routine pap smears have reduced cervical cancer cases by more than 70 percent in the past half century by detecting persistent HPV infection in the small percentage of women who do not naturally clear HPV infection. Never mind that Merck only tested its HPV vaccine on a few hundred nine year old girls but is now lobbying for all little girls AND boys to be required to get three shots of HPV vaccine - at a cost of $120 per shot - in order to attend school.
If Merck can pull the wool over enough eyes of the dumb sheep we have become, then Merck will rake in more than $3 billion a year worldwide in Gardasil sales alone. That would pay off a good number of the more than 11,000 Vioxx victims and their families now suing Merck in court.
HPV Vaccine: it's unnecessary, it's expensive, it's never been tested for the ability to cause immune system disorders over time, particularly in genetically vulnerable individuals. And yet, almost no one is standing up to ask the question: why are the wheels being greased to make HPV vaccine mandatory for every man, woman and child in the world?
Because like hepatitis B vaccine, which the CDC told pediatricians in 1991 to give to all babies at birth for an adult disease that is sexually transmitted, HPV vaccine is a vaccine the CDC is telling doctors in 2006 to give to all little girls and boys for a disease that is sexually transmitted. And what is the ultimate sexually transmitted disease now plaguing mankind? That's right: HIV. AIDS. The big one. The one that drug companies are using billions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer money to develop an HIV vaccine that governments of the world will pay more money to force every citizen to use.
Every year the Vaccine Machine grows stronger while educated citizens in developed nations, who should know better, are led like ignorant sheep to slaughter, barely uttering a wimper. When the experimental AIDS vaccine is trotted out in the not to distant future and rushed to market with calls for world mandates, we will have been softened up to accept our fate without too much fuss by the masterful marketing of hepatitis B vaccination at birth and HPV vaccination in pre-adolescence.
And when we or our husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, sons or daughters get sick after being injected with just a little bit of the HIV virus, we will have been carefully taught to believe it is all just a coincidence: the vaccine had nothing to do with it. No one, including Merck and other HIV vaccine marketeers, or the government will take responsibility for what happens. We allowed ourselves to be victimized a long time ago when we let our politicians weaken the FDA's regulatory authority and take away our right to seek justice in the civil court system for vaccine injuries.
The expedited injection of HPV vaccine into everyone in the world is just a trial run for how easy it will be to expedite the injection of HIV vaccine into everyone in the world. And when we all test positive for HIV after that future forced vaccination experiment on humanity, we will have only ourselves to blame for failing to stand up now and say no to forced use of HPV vaccine.
Targeting Prisoners for Medical Experiments
In response to an article in the NY TIMES, Aug. 13, 2006
Panel Suggests Using Inmates in Drug Trials
“Free and informed consent becomes pretty questionable when prisoners don’t hold the keys to their own cells,” Professor Murphy said, “and in many cases they can’t read, yet they are signing a document that it practically takes a law degree to understand.” - Daniel S. Murphy, Professor of Criminal Justice and former prisoner
BL Fisher Note:
Lawyer and self styled bioethicist Lawrence Gostin recently convinced the prestigious Institute of Medicine to call on the pharmaceutical industry to use America's 2.3 million prisoners as guinea pigs for experimental drugs and vaccines. Lamenting the lack of private citizen volunteers for potentially toxic drug and vaccine trials, the Institute of Medicine apparently is helping one of its biggest funders - the pharmaceutical industry - to experiment on captive populations in the name of the "greater good." Professor Gostin preaches utilitarianism, a 19th century consequentialist theory branded as a pseudo- ethic by the Nuremberg Tribunal after doctors and scientists on trial for forced experimentation on captive prisoners during World War II used the "greater good" defense to justify their actions.
Gostin was paid by the CDC to create the Model State Emergency Health Power Act, which was rammed through many states after September 11, 2001. This legislation took away civil liberties in order to allow state militia to arrest, quarantine and force vaccination and experimental drugs on citizens without their informed consent or access to legal counsel whenever public health officials convince the Governor to declare a public health "emergency." An HIV/AIDS activist, Gostin has stated that "The HIV'AIDS pandemic is probably the defining historical event of the late 20th century and threatens to further define our future." Gostin is working with others in academia and public health agencies to pave the way for forced use of experimental HIV vaccines on captive prison populations in preparation for forced use of HIV vaccine by the entire U.S. population without securing voluntary informed consent from individuals.
There are 2.3 million Americans in prison today. They are fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons and daughters. They are behind bars for crimes big and small. Some are innocent. They are all human beings.
I am reminded of the warning by holocaust survivor Martin Niemoller: "In Germany, they came first for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up."Beware the elitists who come to take away your human rights in the name of the greater good.

Spinning the "Ethics" of Forced Vaccination
In response to a press release from Seattle Children's Hopsital, July 15, 2006
International Conference Debates Vaccination Hesitancy and Parental Refusal
Experts in the Field Discuss the Successes and Challenges of Childhood Vaccination
As the Nuremberg Tribunal so effectively discussed at the Doctor's Trial at Nuremberg after World War II, the utilitarian rationale for forced medical interventions is fundamentally ethically corrupt. Utilitarianism, which suggests that the state can force a minority to sacrifice their well being for the majority, cannot be ethically used by doctors or scientists to force medical interventions which can injure or kill or individuals without their informed consent. In the case of one-size-fits-all forced vaccination policies, the parents of children, who are genetically vulnerable to vaccine induced injury and death, are being forced to kill or injure their children without their informed consent.
The forced vaccination stance taken by M.D./MPH "experts" reveals exactly why educated parents do not trust them. Why would a parent entrust their child's life to a medical doctor who does not care if their child is killed or crippled by a vaccine but only cares if the child gets vaccinated in order to "protect" the State?
The right to informed consent to any medical intervention which carries a risk of injury or death, including vaccination, is a human right. Perhaps the MD/MPH experts who want to violate the human rights of parents should actually speak with, rather than publicly gossip about, those parents refusing to offer up their children as sacrificial lambs on the alter of one-size-fits-all vaccine policies.

Chronically Sick Kids on Meds at Camp
In response to an article in the New York Times, July 16, 2006
Checklist for Camp: Bug Spray. Sunscreen. Pills.
The destruction of the biological integrity of millions of young Americans by M.D./Ph.D. vaccinologists in government and industry is reaping tragic consequences today. More than 25 percent of America's child population is chronically ill or disabled, and many children are taking daily prescription drugs.
Unable to naturally experience and recover from childhood infections like generations in the past, while their immune systems are atypically manipulated with 48 doses of 12 vaccines by age six, many American children are being set up for chronic inflammation that does not resolve and leads to chronic illness and disability. Drug companies making vaccines and medical doctors pushing vaccines profit twice from the damage done: the vaccine injured young grow up addicted to immune modulating and behavior modifying drugs and dependent upon the medical doctors prescribing them.
But who is going to pay for the damage done? Too many of our vaccine injured young will be too sick to contribute to and lead our nation when they become adults. Will the M.D./Ph.D. "experts" pushing vaccines use their 401K's to finance care for the adults of tomorrow they are responsible for damaging as children today?
The human and financial price of helping a child recover from an acute case of pertussis, measles, mumps, chicken pox, or rotavirus pales in comparison with the human and financial price of caring for a child who develops and suffers from asthma, diabetes, learning disabilities, ADHD, autism, medication resistent seizures, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease or other autoimmune and brain dysfunction for the rest of his or her life.

Flu Vaccine and Human Guinea Pigs
In response to an article on Bloomberg News, July 15, 2006
Work on Pandemic Flu Vaccines Must Start Now, WHO Report Says
Already, public health and drug company officials are talking about the inevitability of "unexpected adverse events" when people take the experimental flu vaccines they are using billions of taxpayer dollars to create for a flu pandemic they insist is just around the corner. Already they are trying to soften up the public to accept the idea that, whenever anyone dies or is crippled after talking an experimental flu vaccine, it will only be a "coincidence" and unrelated to the vaccination just given.
Obsessed with the idea they must eradicate all mircoorganisms causing infectious disease, especially the ever evolving and mutating strains of viruses causing human influenza, the vaccinologists running things at the CDC and WHO are teaming up with drug companies to wreak more havoc on the human immune system. Not content with targeting children for flu vaccination, they are now targeting all pregnant women, whose unborn child in the womb will be the unwitting recipient of a dose of flu vaccine.
And when, after vaccination, that unborn infant is either spontaneously aborted or is eventually born with brain or immune system damage, the mother will be blamed for defective genes or not eating right during pregnancy. The flu vaccine, which atypically manipulated the immune system of both mother and unborn child, will never be implicated. If she questions the doctor who gave her the flu vaccine, he will tell her she is crazy, that vaccines do not cause such things and that it was all "just a coindicence."
And the killing and crippling of mothers and babies after annual and experimental flu vaccines will go on. And when anybody wonders or asks if the flu vaccine had anything to do with it, government health officials and doctors will say over and over and over again that it was just a "coincidence."

Scared UK Doctors Won't Charge Wakefield
In response to an article in The Daily Mail (UK), July 15, 2006
MMR row doctor who defied Government 'in the clear'
It has been eight long years since British gastroenterologist Andrew Wakefield, M.D. and colleagues from the Royal Free Hospital in London published an article in The Lancet urging further scientific investigation into the possible link between MMR vaccine, inflammatory bowel disease and autism in some children. Ever since, Wakefield has been subjected to a vicious personal and professional smear campaign at the hands of public health officials and medical doctors in Britain, the U.S. and Canada, who have no tolerance for scientific investigation into the biological mechanisms for vaccine injury and death.
Britain's General Medical Council (GMC), which is the equivalent of a self annointed Medical Supreme Court, has publicly been conducting an "investigation" for the past two years into whether Andrew Wakefield should be convicted of "professional misconduct" and have his medical license taken away. For the sin of trying to prevent healthy children from regressing physically, mentally, and emotionally after MMR vaccination into autism, the GMC has been determined to make sure he cannot find ways to help autistic children recover from MMR vaccine induced autism.
Now, at the eleventh hour, just before Andrew Wakefield was to have his day in court and publicly defend himself against nearly a decade of baseless charges by those seeking to silence him, the doctors in charge of the GMC have put their collective tails between their legs and run. Just like a common street bully, who blindsides an innocent with a sucker punch in the dark, doctors inside and outside of government and industry are too chicken to stand ground and fight in the light of day. The GMS has apparently figured out it won't stand a chance fighting Wakefield under the bright lights of the media it has duped and exploited in order to hide the child victims of one-size-fits all vaccine policies that end up targeting the genetically vulnerable for sacrifice.
It does not matter anymore what the GMC and doctors in charge of the mass vaccination system in the US and countries around the world do or do not do to Andrew Wakefield. His legacy is already written in the hearts and minds of the people whose children he has saved and will save from a lifetime of pain.

MMR Vaccine: Caring About Anna
In response to an article in United Press International, July 14, 2006
The Age of Autism: Anna's Last Days (2)
Slowly but surely a few investigative journalists looking into the dark corners of one-size-fits-all mass vaccination policies in the U.S. and Europe are coming to the same conclusion parents of vaccine injured children came to a long time ago: individual children are being killed and crippled on the alter of the "greater good" utilitarian pseudo-ethic embraced by public health officials. Public health officials around the world are compromising the biological integrity of our young by insisting on achieving "herd immunity" and refusing to acknowledge just how many casualties it takes to do that.
The immoral utlitarian rationale created by British lawyer Jeremy Benthem in the 1800's was then and still is a convenient excuse for elitists in charge of making government policy to use the "greater good" club to dismiss a minority of individuals as expendable in service to the majority. Works just fine if you and your loved ones happen to be in the majority. Doesn't work so fine if you and your own are the one's being sacrificed.
The Nuremberg Tribunal, which put the utilitarian rationale on trial along with doctors they charged with crimes against humanity after World War II, got it right in 1947: no human being - even if they have M.D. or Ph.D. written after their name - has the right to use another human being as a means to an end, no matter how good that end may appear to be. The Nuremberg Tribunal, which created the Nuremberg Code to serve as a guide for the practice of ethical medicine, made it quite clear that it is immoral for doctors to force other human beings to risk their lives in order to advance medicine, science or improve the human condition without their voluntary, informed consent.
Were Anna's parents truly informed by public health officials about the risks of MMR vaccine before their daughter was vaccinated?
Mass vaccination policies dictated by doctors employed by government may have saved many in the past who would have died or been crippled by infectious diseases. But it is becoming clearer that vaccines and one-size-fits-all vaccine policies have also destroyed the lives of many individuals and their families, who may or may not have contracted an infectious disease and may or may not have died or been injured from the disease.
The time has come for government health officials around the world to remove the blinders from their eyes and tear down the stone walls they have built around their hearts and care as much about children, like Anna, who die or are crippled by vaccines, as they say they care about children who die or are crippled by infectious diseases.

HPV Vaccine: Necessary or Safe?
In response to an article from United Press International, July 11, 2006
Steep Learning Curve for HPV Vaccine?
HPV infection is asymptomatic and is cleared naturally by the majority of men and women who experience it. Rarely, HPV infection becomes persistent and, after many years, can cause cervical cancer in women. Most cervical cancers are prevented in the U.S. with routine pap smears.
Merck's pre-licensure clinical trials for their HPV vaccine, Gardasil, were methodologically flawed. Merck used a potentially reactive aluminum containing placebo to mask the magnitude of the Gardasil's reactivity. It appears that only about 900 pre-adolescent girls participated in the clinical trials. Merck and the FDA know nothing about the ability of Gardasil to cause long term health problems, particularly autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, in young girls (see an analysis of pre-licensure clinical trials with citations on the NVIC Website.
The CDC's recommendation for universal use of HPV vaccine by all pre-adolescent girls is a profit-making enterprise for Merck and it is a potential health risk for little girls, who may or may not ever become HPV infected. And, if a girl does become HPV infected after becoming sexually active when she gets older, she will have a very low risk of becoming chronically HPV infected. And if she becomes chronically HPV infected, she will have an even lower risk of developing cervical cancer unless she fails to get regular pap smears. Because of routine pap screening in America, there has been a 75 percent decline in cervical cancer since the 1950's. Cervical cancer now accounts for only one percent of all cancers in American women.
Spending billions of dollars to vaccinate every 9 year old girl in America with an HPV vaccine which has not been proven to be safe or necessary is ridiculous.
