5 Immediate Ways to Help Your Child With Autism

The power to help your child is within your reach!

I just returned from the AutismOne/Generation Rescue conference. As I sat through one session after another and talked with parents, grandparents, and professionals, I was constantly amazed by two things. The first was the unwavering determination of the parents in their fight to recover their kids. And a fight it is, or—more accurately—a war, as Dr. Wakefield said in his presentation. These parents are motivated by the love they have for their children, and that love doesn’t come with a price tag. Their search for a cure and justice is worth more than anything in the world to them.

The second thing that impressed me was their knowledge. I’ve known for a long time that parents of children on the spectrum are smart. But they’re not just smart. They’re brilliant. And they’re brilliant because they have to be. They have to do their own research to put the pieces together and do whatever it takes to make their children well again. I personally believe that it is not possible to find people who can hold a candle to parents who are bound together by a devastating illness like autism.

Drawing from the conference—and from my own experience helping my grandson Jake recover—I offer you five ways to immediately start helping your child with autism and, in the process, help other children and their families.

DON’T GIVE UP

I’ve said before that all the stories I’ve heard about autism are almost identical. A perfectly normal child gets a vaccine and regresses into autism. The journey may differ, but the main statement, “My child got autism from a vaccine,” is the same.

The stories of recovery are also very similar. The therapies and treatments vary, but the fact remains that child after child is recovering from autism. One parent I spoke with at the conference said she utilized numerous methods with her son, including the GFCF (Gluten-Free Casein-Free) diet, ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy, HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy), the Son-Rise Program, and chelation. She saw dramatic improvements with all of them. Her son, who hadn’t spoken in three years, is now beginning to talk. He is learning to read. He is making friends. Another parent used HBOT and ABA, as well as methyl B₁₂ shots, Floortime, and the SCD (Specific Carbohydrate Diet)—with similar results. Her son is now talking, reading and writing, and making new friends. He has even lost his label.

I heard dozens of stories of children who are recovering through biomedical and behavioral therapies or a combination of both. In addition to the ones I’ve already mentioned, many parents I talked to also reported success with sensory integration training; the use of Probiotics, amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids, enzymes, and vitamins such as D₃; osteopathy; chiropractic; and cranial sacral therapy.

A common thread in the parents’ stories was that they tried numerous therapies—but only one at a time. That way, they knew if something was helping. And they gave each one a fair chance—say, a month or two—before adding the next one. Sometimes their children experienced negative side effects with therapies such as detoxing but, more often than not, if they stuck with it, they soon saw the positive results. They also recognize that all children are not the same. What works for one child may not work for another.

Recovery means different things to different people. For some, it means losing the autism diagnosis. For others, it means dramatic improvement—a few residual symptoms but, for the most part, typical. And for still others, it means that, after months or even years, their child says, “I love you,” for the first time or potty-trains or learns to dress himself. Whatever recovery means to you, remember that it is a process. It takes time. It takes effort. It means being open to trying whatever it takes to get your child back. Because not trying is not an option.

DON’T SHUT UP

You have seen what a vaccine did to your child. And you have seen what can happen when you use biomedical and behavioral therapies to treat autism. You have an obligation, a responsibility, to give others the opportunity to hear the truth and learn from you. Talk to anyone who will listen. Friends, family members, local media, national media, your congressmen. Share records of the diagnosis, symptoms, and therapies and results. Share before-and-after videos of your child if you have them. Write about it, blog about it, tweet about it. Whatever you choose, just do it. With the Internet, there are no limits.

Be prepared to hear that you’re crazy, a member of a cult, and ignorant, and you’re putting other children at risk by not vaccinating yours. Don’t stop talking no matter what people say to you. You know what you saw. You know why it happened. Tell the world.

Finally, don’t forget to report your child’s vaccine injury to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) at www.vaers.hhs.gov. Don’t wait for your doctor or the hospital to do it. Won’t happen. You have to do it.

DON’T STAGNATE

It’s normal to feel anger when your child is suffering from autism and you know it could have been prevented. And you know that our doctors and government are responsible and won’t admit it. They deny any connection between vaccines and autism. They won’t fund studies on vaccine safety. They won’t mandate insurance coverage for treatments that are helping children recover every day. In short, they won’t help you fix what they caused. How could you not be angry?

Anger, although it can be an initial empowering emotion, can slow you down if you hold onto it for long. Don’t wallow in it. As Jenny McCarthy said at the conference, get past the anger, and move forward. Believe that you can make a difference. More than one national autism organization began as a small support group. A small group of parents who got together because they needed someone to talk to. They needed advice. Coping techniques. And now they are stronger and changing the lives of many children and their families. They are offering hope where there was no hope.

DON’T GO IT ALONE

Having a child with autism can be lonely. Often, family and friends gradually fade out of the picture, unable or unwilling, or both, to be there for you. A support system is critical when your child is on the spectrum. There is help available, and you really don’t have to leave your house to find it. Again, the power of the Internet. Go online and search for organizations like AutismOne, Generation Rescue, the National Autism Association, the Canary Party, and Thinking Moms Revolution. There are more, and I couldn’t possibly list all the amazing groups out there. Just Google “autism organizations,” and you’ll find them. Sign up for their emails and blogs. “Like” their groups on Facebook.

Speaking of Facebook, what an incredible source of support. Send friend requests to others in the autism community. They’ll accept in about five minutes. You’ll soon have instant contact with parents who walk in your shoes every single day. Trust me—you will be lifelong friends who can talk about anything. And you will soon be friends with their friends and their friends’ friends, until you have more friends than you can count. It’s like having an extended family. A family that doesn’t judge you or criticize you or try to make you feel guilty. A family that will build you up. That will celebrate with you when your child reaches a new milestone, no matter how small, and will offer you encouragement when he takes a step backward. And, before long, you will find yourself doing the same. You will be helping others and giving them hope, and that can be very healing for you.

DON’T LET YOUR CHILD DOWN

It’s been said many times that you are your child’s strongest advocate. You love him more than anyone. You know him better than anyone. He depends on you to be sure his needs are met. He counts on you to find him the best doctors and therapists. To fight for the best possible environment at school. To help him make friends. To provide him with a healthy diet and a predictable and safe routine.

For your child with autism, the world can be chaotic and scary. He probably has sensory issues that keep him in a fight-or-flight mode. Everything’s too loud or too bright. If he’s non-verbal, nobody understands him. He can’t make himself heard. He can’t ask for what he wants or needs. Everything is out of control.

Knowing you love and accept him unconditionally will make all the difference in your child’s day-to-day battles. When I say accept your child, I don’t mean to give up and stop reaching for recovery. I mean to show him kindness, patience, and respect, and to keep plugging along in spite of setbacks, exhaustion, and feelings of hopelessness. One day at a time. One hour at a time. One minute at a time. Whatever you need to do to keep going.

A HUGE THANKS

I want to thank all the Autism One/Generation Rescue conference presenters and attendees who are doing something. You’re speaking out, loud and clear. Keep doing whatever it is you’re doing. Because in the end—at the risk of sounding corny—the truth will prevail. And then, maybe, just maybe, the insanity will stop.

Is A Universal Pandemic Vaccine On the Way?

The Centers for Disease Control attempts to look into the future to guess in a virus strain to use in vaccines.

There’s a push to create a universal vaccine against influenza pandemics that may be coming to fruition sooner than we know.  Supposedly, those who were vaccinated against the 2009 pandemic—that never materialized—have developed antibodies against many other strains of influenza, including H1N1.

Rafi Ahmed, PhD, director of the Emory Vaccine Center, confirms his team is working on creating a universal influenza vaccine that can be given to everyone. The Emory team’s work centers on 24 healthy individuals who received the 2009 H1N1 vaccination.

Emery researchers found that those 24 individuals had something they apparently were looking for: certain antibodies that adhered to the “stalk” of the influenza virus.  To understand the importance of that to the researchers, we need to realize that a virus has a “head” that mutates between strains, but the “stalk” does not and remains intact or the same.  Usually, antibodies bind to the head, which is where the ‘crap shoot’ comes in, in designing an influenza-specific vaccine.  The apparent ‘eureka’ moment in vaccinology came when researchers found that flu antibodies were binding to the “stalk,” which does not mutate or change and, those 24 people had antibodies that could serve as the basis of a universal influenza vaccine.

Since this research apparently is revolutionary in the field of vaccinology, one has to question what will be the ramifications of such immunological manipulation.  There may be some problems that develop because of what this writer feels may present conflicts with natural immunity processes within the human organism.

The science of immunology desperately is working to superimpose its scientific model upon the way Mother Nature has been implementing the immune system response apparently since the beginning of human time.  Therein probably lies a problem.  That problem could be the immune system is either overworking to produce new or exacerbated allergies, or ‘failing’ by allowing chronic disease(s) to manifest, as is now apparently happening with very young children. That was an anomaly prior to the 1990s, which most likely resulted after the mandated push to vaccinate infants, toddlers, and older children.

Adjuvants in vaccines have been shown to induce chronic disease such as rheumatoid arthritis in rat studies.  The particular adjuvant involved was squalene.  Apparently squalene was an ingredient in the flu vaccine that has triggered narcolepsy.  It seems there’s a Pandora’s box of many surprises when it comes to vaccines.

One of the health issues vaccinologists may not be including regarding a universal flu vaccine is this: Influenza usually does not kill; it’s pneumonia the flu patient usually contracts that kills!  Pneumonia is one of the antimicrobial resistant diseases.  See item 3 below.

It would seem that vaccinology is not embracing the historical evidence for natural immunity, but forges ahead to reprogram not only human DNA but also the very mechanism by which humans remain healthy—natural immunity.  Several things point to that, which apparently are being ignored, I think.  They include: 

1. Vaccinated children are coming down with pertussis (whooping cough), measles, and other diseases, which they are vaccinated against.  That says that either vaccines are not effective or the microorganisms are becoming so sophisticated they are morphing into super strains from the wild strains that humans evolved with.
2. Federal health agencies such as the U.S. CDC and FDA enforce booster vaccinations because the vaccines apparently do not produce life-long immunity that occurs once an infectious disease is experienced and overcome, which has been historically apparent but overlooked by immunology science.  Furthermore, natural immunity does not produce revenue for Big Pharma.
3. Vaccines and vaccinations do not produce natural immunity; they produce what are termed “antibodies” that vaccinologists rely on as ‘evidence’ that vaccines provide immunity.  Antibody production only is regarded and measured as ‘efficacy’ in vaccines.  If there are antibodies produced from vaccines to protect, why do vaccinated children still come down with whooping cough and other infectious diseases for which they have been vaccinated?  This writer ventures to say the reason is there is no natural immunity or the microorganisms (viruses and bacteria) have morphed into something different than the ‘wild’ diseases.  Consider what antibiotics have done to program diseases like MRSA, etc.  If you think there is only one or two antibiotic-resistant diseases, check out the CDC’s “Diseases/Pathogens Associated with Antimicrobial Resistance” at http://www.cdc.gov/drugresistance/DiseasesConnectedAR.html.  That website lists numerous bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites as “antimicrobial resistant.”  Immunology science may be creating new and more ‘sophisticated’ microorganisms as a result of an inability to accept the concept of natural immunity, in my opinion.
4. One classic example that vaccines do not ‘protect’ revolves around the tetanus vaccine.  According to what this writer knows, there is no evidence in the medical/scientific literature that tetanus vaccine protects!  If there is such evidence, I ask for the references, please.
5. Maternal immunity transfer problems may occur in breastfeeding infants if mom had a universal flu vaccine before she became pregnant.  Currently there is talk about discouraging mothers from breastfeeding because it interferes with vaccines’ ‘efficacy’.  That indicates to this writer just how determined Big Pharma is to make vaccines ‘work’, even to the point of disregarding how the human body functions and to reprogram it to Big Pharma’s dictates.

Even though the long-term goals of the Ahmed research team at Emory are “to understand the mechanisms of immunological memory and to use this information to develop new vaccines for the prevention and treatment of disease,” healthcare consumers need to realize that they may be looking down a proverbial gun barrel of unknowns from which no one will be exempt from mass immunization programs similar to the one that was ‘floated’ in 1976 but shot down because of Guillian Barré syndrome.  Only God knows what will happen with the next mass vaccination mandate, and He is not telling anyone yet, it seems.

One of the Numerous Problems With Vaccines

Many children have become paralyzed after receiving the polio vaccine.

PHARMABIZ.com, “India’s most comprehensive pharma portal,” published the article “National Vaccine Policy comes in for severe criticism from experts” [1] early in May 2012, and may have exposed aspects of the method of madness regarding vaccines in India.

Interestingly, the article claims the Indian government may have fallen into a trap apparently set by the World Bank, which allegedly is propelling a world recession and also aids the politics of such organizations as the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations (GAVI) that probably is bankrolled by the Gates Foundation, and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Indian Doctors Raghuram and Mahavi authored an article in Current Science wherein they stated:

“Clearly, this vaccine policy is not designed to enhance national public capacities for public immunization programmes, but to justify spending public money on privately produced vaccines in the name of protection from diseases, whose incidence figures and public health statistics are dubious and industry-manufactured. In its eagerness to push vaccines, this policy completely missed the very idea of selective immunization and implies that all immunization is universal.”

One of my networkers emailed this link about polio vaccines published on Experimental Vaccines http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=1rJBib-3q6A.  You will notice that the title of the video is “Bill Gates Oral Polio Vaccine Cripples 47,500 Children.”  Why such a title?  The oral polio vaccine that is being administered in foreign countries such as India is causing vaccine-derived polioviruses.  The problem with that vaccine is that the poliovirus can remain live and ‘active’ within the vaccinated person’s throat for as long as two weeks and, furthermore, it can be passed on to others via the virus in the vaccinated child’s feces.

August 14, 2009, CBSNews Healthwatch online reported

Polio, the dreaded paralyzing disease stamped out in the industrialized world, is spreading in Nigeria. And health officials say in some cases, it’s caused by the vaccine used to fight it. [2]

According to the Journal of Humanitarian Affairs April 18, 2012,

In Pakistan too, the threat of polio vaccine is not going entirely unreported.

… Children can die or become disabled from natural polio virus, but they re also equally or more at risk from the polio vaccine given to them orally around the world. [3]

Shockingly, in Pakistan 80 percent of those who contracted polio were vaccinated against the disease.  Sounds very similar to what’s happening with pertussis (whooping cough) in the USA, doesn’t it?

Afghanistan also has a polio problem that needs to be addressed, but not by administering oral polio vaccines, I’d say.  Upgrading nutrition and sanitation along with implementing vitamin A and other nutritional supplementation would be a better approach to solving polio—and other health problems—plus a superior utilization of financial resources, instead of administering oral polio vaccines that induce vaccine-derived polio, in my opinion.

According to UNICEF, the African countries of Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Gambia, Ghana, and Togo have achieved the required 90 percent vaccination coverage.  However, there have been recent outbreaks of polio in Chad [Africa] and China.  The question that must be asked and answered honestly is, “What role does vaccinating with the oral polio vaccine play in the spread of the disease?”  That’s something health authorities apparently want to hide under the carpet.  It’s just another one of the problems with vaccines.

New Vaccine Made From Dog Cells May Trigger Allergies To Dogs

A new vaccine may trigger allergies in those who are allergic to dogs.

It appears that a new vaccine is being slipped into private clinics via the back door without anyone noticing. Medi-Mumps is a single mumps vaccine that will be available for use in the UK from June 2012.

The new vaccine is cultured on canine kidney cells instead of chick embryos making it suitable for those children allergic to eggs; however, the new wonder vaccine may not be suitable for those allergic to dogs. To understand the reason why, please read on.

The Early Onset website (1) announcing the news states:

The availability of the single mumps vaccine will come as a huge relief to parents of children who have yet to be immunised against the virus due to the lack of supply of the vaccine in the UK over the last three years. (sic)

For those of you who are unaware, although the mumps vaccine was available in private clinics until 2009, it was only being offered as an unlicensed product. This was because if a parent specifically requests a single vaccine, a private clinic can apply to the MHRA for permission to use an unlicensed product in the patient’s name.

This was referenced in the Hansard document 4 Dec 2002 (2) by Ms. Blears:

Single mumps vaccines being prescribed and administered, as part of single measles, mumps and rubella vaccination programmes such as MMR SepVax, are unlicensed imported medicines. Medicines legislation allows a doctor or dentist to prescribe an unlicensed medicine to meet the special clinical needs of his individual patients, on his direct personal responsibility.

So where did the vaccine Medi-Mumps originate from?

It is difficult to say exactly where this vaccine has come from or indeed why the UK needs a separate mumps vaccine if the MMR is as successful as it is made out to be. The true situation in respect of this new product Medi-Mumps has been somewhat obscured with one report stating that the new vaccine is to be manufactured on British soil and another reporting that neither Almac Pharma Services Ltd or Medical Imports Ltd the two companies associated with the vaccine are manufacturing it.

It has been reported on the ruleof6ix (3) website by Connor Bamford that he was advised by a representative of Almac Pharma Services Ltd that they were not manufacturing the vaccine but merely importing and packaging it.

He states:

“So when I got in contact with Almac Pharma Services Ltd, the quality care guy there assured me that they nor Medical Imports Ltd. were not in fact manufacturing it but only importing and packaging it for the UK market; it was being made in a facility in the Czech Republic. He noted that it’s importation was being held up by some regulatory issues to do with the way the vaccine was produced. ” (sic)

Medi-Mumps is said to be a vaccine suitable for children suffering from an allergy to eggs. This is because the vaccine is cultured on canine kidney cells instead of the usual chick embryo fibroblast (CEF) cell cultures, enabling the vaccine to be administered to babies who are allergic to eggs. The vaccine has been proven to be clinically safe in Europe and approved by the WHO.(1)

Is An Increase In Egg Allergies The Real Reason For Medi-Mumps?

I have to wonder if Medi-Mumps being introduced to private clinics has anything to do with an increase in the numbers of children suffering from egg allergies.

In 2010 an article in the Guardian (4) stated that:

The number of people at risk from severe and fatal allergic reactions has increased sharply every year for the past 15 years, according to new NHS figures. The number of adults developing potentially lethal new allergies for the first time has also accelerated dramatically.

The CNN Website (5) states that ‘Eggs are one of the most common allergy-causing foods in children’.

Interestingly Medi-Mumps is extremely similar to the banned vaccine Pavivac. The Pavivac vaccine was also manufactured in the Czech Republic and cultured on canine kidney cells but this vaccine was rejected by the CSM (Committee on the Safety of Medicines) in 2002 because of safety concerns. (6)

As a precautionary measure, the Committee on the Safety of Medicines (CSM) has advised that the use of an unlicensed single mumps vaccine, Pavivac, should be suspended, pending further investigations by the Medicines Controls Agency (MCA).

The MCA should also continue to oppose further imports of this product.

The CSM met following concerns raised over the manufacture, testing and storage of the vaccine. At its meeting yesterday (13 November 2002), the independent scientific advisory body reviewed the most up to date data available on Pavivac. The CSM said that it had insufficient information.

The CSM (7) also expressed further concerns in another paper stating:

The activities of clinics and private practitioners offering single dose measles and mumps vaccine gives rise for concern. The Committee on Safety of Medicines (CSM) had to intervene to advise against the importation of unlicensed “Pavivac” mumps vaccine due to concerns surrounding the use of dog kidney cells in its manufacture and the risk from unknown infections.

Of course the Medi-Mumps vaccine could in fact be the Pavivac vaccine with a new name, after all this would not be the first time that a rogue vaccine has been brought into the UK boasting a brand new identity. If we cast our minds back to 1988 the JCVI (Joint Committee for Vaccinations and Immunizations) introduced Canada’s banned MMR vaccine Trivirix to the UK with the new name Pluserix causing a huge number of children to suffer horrendous side effects including encephalitis, seizures and deafness.

Do the UK authorities now have the missing data on safety and efficacy to argue allowing the importation of this similar type vaccine in June/July 2012 into the UK? I am sure parents will be keen for some answers on this especially if they have children with egg allergies who have suffered a severe adverse reaction to the MMR vaccine.

As we all know governments want as many children vaccinated as possible. If parents with children suffering from egg allergies are refusing the MMR vaccine, then it makes sense to have an alternative to hand. It could explain this sudden change of heart and why a vaccine similar to a previously refused vaccine is now entering the UK market.

Medi-Mumps May Not Be Suitable For Children Allergic To Dog Hair

Whilst the Medi-Mumps vaccine may be good news for parents of children suffering an egg allergy, it may not be so good if they are also allergic to dog hair. Like Pavivac, Medi-Mumps is cultured on canine kidney cells therefore; it could also have the same contraindications. On the Pavivac product sheet (8) in the section marked contraindications it clearly states that any person with an allergy to proteins of canine hair should not receive the vaccine. It says:

hypersensitivity to any components of the vaccine (e.g. neomycin, proteins of canine hair)

Whatever the reasons behind the introduction of this new vaccine I am beginning to suspect foul play, or could it be simply a case of dogged determination in a bid to have all children vaccinated come what may? Let’s face it neither chick eggs nor the kidney cells from dogs are desirable products to be adding to children’s vaccinations in the first place.

So How Do Vaccine Manufacturers Obtain Canine Kidney Cells?

The answer to the above question is simple, they breed their own supply. When the CSM originally rejected the Pavivac vaccine they rejected it because kidney cells from dogs were used to make it. The CSM felt that there was a possible risk of infection by using materials of animal origin in vaccinations.

To reassure the CSM the export director for Sevapharma, Miroslav Reinhardt, said that the vaccine was safe and that his company had cooperated with UK officials. He told the Prague Post (9)

“The kidney cells were taken from dogs bred at farms that follow laws regulating such practices.”

Adding

“We cooperated with the Medicines Control Agency (MCA) intensely — we provided them with our documentation and we hope they will reconsider their decision.”

It rather looks as if they have doesn’t it? However, I have to wonder if the real reason for this sudden change of heart is that egg allergy sufferers ARE ACTUALLY AT RISK if they receive the MMR vaccine. If this is so then why do the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) and the ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) both state that the MMR is entirely safe for children allergic to eggs?

Several studies have documented the safety of measles and mumps vaccine (which are grown in chick embryo tissue culture) in children with severe egg allergy. Neither the AAP’s “Red Book” Committee nor ACIP consider egg allergy as a contraindication to MMR vaccine. ACIP recommends routine vaccination of egg-allergic children without the use of special protocols or desensitization procedures. (10)

This is all very strange because the first MMR license issued on the 17^th August 1972 by Merck Sharpe and Dohme Ltd in the UK did NOT advocate the MMR for anyone with so much as a feather allergy let alone an egg allergy!! (11)

This license was changed in August 1987 to accommodate a switch in the rubella strain and became MMR II. On the information sheet for the MMR11, Merck (12) quote the AAP and state that it is safe to give children the MMR even if they suffer from an egg allergy. Merck’s says:

M-M-R® II

(MEASLES, MUMPS, and

RUBELLA VIRUS VACCINE LIVE)

The AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) has stated,

“Most children with a history of anaphylactic reactions to eggs have no untoward reactions to measles or MMR vaccine. Persons are not at increased risk if they have egg allergies that are not anaphylactic, and they should be vaccinated in the usual manner. In addition, skin testing of egg-allergic children with vaccine has not been predictive of which children will have an immediate hypersensitivity reaction…Persons with allergies to chickens or chicken feathers are not at increased risk of reaction to the vaccine.” (my emphasis)

I wish they would all make up their minds because whatever is going on it is all very suspicious and I have to wonder if the UK is now going to see the return of the single vaccines due to more and more parents boycotting the MMR due to safety concerns.

Pet Vaccinations Induce Cancerous Growths

Vaccines are becoming really big business in the world of veterinary medicine, just as with humans. It’s interesting that animal vaccines can be “released without large controlled challenge studies that are necessary prior to the release of human vaccines.” [1]  Really! and since when has there been large controlled challenge studies for human vaccines? Conversely, in the article “Animal vaccinations” by David Ramey, there is this candid admission:

Still, in general, animal owners must currently rely on the experience of individual practitioners, rather than sound science, for vaccine recommendations for their animals. [1]

How pathetic a statement!  And one must ask why is there no sound science for vaccine recommendations for pets and animals?  Furthermore, is there a similar form of science being manipulated with human vaccines?

There’s a heartbreaking story about a pet cat that was vaccinated near its tail and now has a cancerous tumor at the very site of the vaccination. [2] Plus, the veterinarian admits that the vaccine was the cause of the cancerous tumor!  Okay, what does that portend?  Can we start connecting some ‘inter-species dots’ for starters?  Hozart, the tabby cat, is not an anomaly.  More and more pets are coming down with cancerous tumors at vaccine injection sites, as confirmed by Dr. Patricia Jordan, DVM.  Recommendations are being made to have pets vaccinated on a limb so that it can be amputated to save a pet’s life.

I sure hope they don’t recommend such a procedure for children.  But one never knows with some of the ‘science’ that is emerging today.

Let’s take the ‘inter-species dot connecting’ a little further.  According to the National Cancer Institute FactSheet,

Over the past 20 years, there has been some increase in the incidence of children diagnosed with all forms of invasive cancer, from 11.5 cases per 100,000 children in 1975 to 14.8 per 100,000 children in 2004. [3]

What are the most common types of childhood cancer?

Among the 12 major types of childhood cancers, leukemias (blood cell cancers) and cancers of the brain and central nervous system account for more than half of the new cases. About one-third of childhood cancers are leukemias. The most common type of leukemia in children is acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The most common solid tumors are brain tumors (e.g., gliomas and medulloblastomas), with other solid tumors (e.g., neuroblastomas, Wilms tumors, and sarcomas such as rhabdomyosarcoma and osteosarcoma) being less common. [3]

If we can believe statistics cited by the NCI are correct and not ‘fudged’, since so many children now have childhood cancers—check all the children’s hospitals data,

Long-term trends in incidence for leukemias and brain tumors, the most common childhood cancers, show patterns that are somewhat different from the others. Incidence of childhood leukemias appeared to rise in the early 1980s, with rates increasing from 3.3 cases per 100,000 in 1975 to 4.6 cases per 100,000 in 1985. [3]

It is now 2012!  What are the latest stats, please?

Notation should be made that the Autism Spectrum Disorder also increased dramatically during the past 20 years, as has the mandated number of vaccinations for children starting at birth, then at 2, 4, 6 months and up to 6 years of age, on into teenage years, even for admission into college.  We must not forget to add ADD, ADHD, childhood diabetes, etc. also have skyrocketed.  The medical literature does not document those dramatic instances of health problems for young children before the late 1980s.

Ironically, on NCI’s FactSheet, this question appears: What have studies shown about the possible causes of childhood cancer?  There are numerous bulleted items with probable and/or improbable causes, but nowhere do we see vaccinations.  However, what strikes this writer as patently ridiculous is that veterinarians are agreeing that vaccinations are causing cancerous tumors in pet animals but no correlations are being made to humans.  Hellooooooo!

Somehow, I think, U.S. health consumers cannot ignore the push to vaccinate, which began in the 1980s, along with Congress passing the “get out of jail FREE” card exonerating vaccine makers from tort damage to children and adults from vaccines, the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-660) that created the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP).  By the way, most children damaged by vaccines are not compensated under this outrageously managed, or should I say manipulated program, I think.  It’s a terrible shame what families have to deal with as a result of vaccine-induced damage to their innocent children.  That must stop!

One demographic in U.S. society that does not embrace vaccinations, the Amish, have remarkable statistics that we need to consider further, e.g., the autism rate is one in 15,000!  Plus, their children who usually work the farms in some way virtually have no allergies.  Interesting?

When I shared those statistics with Dr. Paul G. King, PhD, he emailed back the following information that I think needs to be acknowledged and applauded:

Thus, in the non-mercury exposed Amish children (those who were not vaccinated or did not live near a coal-fired power plant), the number with “autism” was “0″ zero.

In the Home First children (Dr. Eisenstein’s practice in Chicago, IL) who are breastfed and not vaccinated, there were reportedly NO cases of autism and only 1 child with asthma in a population in excess of 30,000 [children].

But all of these are only “anecdotal” reports that the CDC dismissed instead of even trying to confirm their validity (for obvious reasons).

So now we have children and their pets coming down with what apparently are health anomalies from vaccines and vaccinations.  When will Congress, the CDC, FDA, MDs, and public health agencies wake up?  Isn’t it about time that parents demanded more for their tax dollars than government pandering to Big Pharma’s pseudo science?

Vaccines Can Cause Autism: Causation vs. Correlation

Do vaccines cause autism? This question has been the source of a heated debate for a long time. While researching autism for the last six years, I’ve often seen articles about causation and correlation. Although I am a layperson who doesn’t completely grasp the scientific process, I have to say the topic intrigues me. I’m going to, if you will, think out loud in this article. Bear with me, and if you have ideas you’d like to share, please do.

First of all, what does causation mean? What is correlation? Merriam-Webster defines “causation” as:

a: the act or process of causing
b: the act or agency which produces an effect

I’ll come back to correlation in a moment. With this definition of causation in mind, there seem to be three possible answers to the question, do vaccines cause autism?

1. Yes. Always.
2. No. Never.
3. Maybe. Sometimes.

Let’s explore each one.

Yes. Always.

I don’t think anyone believes that vaccines always cause autism. That would mean that every child who gets a vaccine ends up with autism. It just goes against reason and logic—and it’s simply not true. There are a lot of children who have gotten a lot of vaccines, and they don’t have autism.

No. Never.

“Never” is a strong word. It would mean that no child has ever gotten autism because of a vaccine. Not one single child. This option is as unreasonable and illogical as the “Yes. Always” option.

Maybe. Sometimes.

I think any reasonable, logical person would find this option … well, reasonable and logical. Vaccines sometimes cause autism. Not always. Not never. Sometimes. Like cigarettes and cancer. It’s an accepted scientific fact that people who smoke have a higher risk of cancer. But there are people who smoke for a lifetime and don’t get cancer. Then, there are people who never smoke and end up with cancer. Sometimes.

CORRELATION, CAUSATION—OR BOTH?

Back to option #2, No. Never. This is where correlation comes in. If this option were true and vaccines never cause autism, for every child whose parent claims he or she developed autism after a vaccine, there is another explanation in the scientific world: correlation. According to M-W, “correlation” is:

the state or relation of being correlated; specifically : a relation existing between phenomena or things or between mathematical or statistical variables which tend to vary, be associated, or occur together in a way not expected on the basis of chance alone

Correlation doesn’t necessarily imply causation. But think about these examples:

1. A child runs out in the street, is hit by a car, and dies. Did the car correlate with his death, was it responsible for his death (causation), or both? Obviously, the car correlated with the child’s death because the two events occurred almost simultaneously. Most reasonable, logical people would say that being run over by the car caused the child’s death. So, there was correlation and causation. A skeptical person might say the child was on the verge of a heart attack (or some other fatal event) in the moments before he was hit by the car, so the car correlated with his death but didn’t cause it. Cause of death could have been the heart attack, and the car just happened to hit the child at almost the same time.

2. A child gets a vaccine and then develops a low-grade fever—a known, undebated side effect of the vaccine. Or redness at the injection site—another known, undebated side effect. Since the fever or redness occurred at about the same time the child got the vaccine, the vaccine also correlated with those side effects.

3. A child gets a vaccine and then gets a fever of 102 (not low-grade), has a seizure, gets sick, stays sick, and—you know the rest. Autism. According to diehard pro-vaxers, the vaccine could not be the cause of the autism. The vaccine simply correlated with the autism. Perhaps the more immediate the adverse event—say, the child dies within minutes or hours of receiving the vaccine—the more likely causation might be. Again, I’m thinking out loud here. Maybe the greater the time between the vaccine and the adverse event—say, the child regresses over a period of weeks or months—the greater the possibility that there could be other causes. Maybe, for instance, the child was on the verge of a seizure disorder and it was just a matter of time before he had the first one. Or he had “inherited” autism, and it was just a matter of time before the first symptoms appeared. Correlation but no causation. Personally, I don’t see how any reasonable, logical person could completely rule out the vaccine as at least a contributing cause—if not the only cause.

TALK ABOUT JUNK SCIENCE

You may remember the article I published last month, “1 in 88: What’s Causing the Increase in Autism?” I mentioned some of our government’s proposed causes of autism. Living within three miles of a freeway is one. I’m not saying that isn’t possible. Maybe it is one cause. One of numerous. But how could it be proven? How is it not just correlation? In addition to living close to a freeway—and I’m thinking like the CDC now—maybe these kids’ moms took certain medications when they were pregnant, maybe their moms and/or dads were too old, maybe the mom gained too much weight, maybe the child wore pajamas with flame retardant in them, maybe the baby was premature or inhaled household cleaners or too much dust in utero. Etc. Etc.

When I ponder causation and correlation, the Danish study that was published in 2003 comes to mind. The claim was that even when mercury was removed from most vaccines (which is, of course, not the case), the autism rate did not decline. In fact, it increased. The conclusion: Mercury doesn’t cause autism. How scientific is that? It doesn’t prove that vaccines don’t cause autism. Even if the findings were true as reported (which they weren’t) [1], at best the study could possibly suggest that mercury doesn’t cause autism. The problem with this is, there are so many ingredients in vaccines. Not just mercury. This is the epitome of junk science. It doesn’t prove that aluminum or aborted fetal cells or formaldehyde or ether or antibiotics or bacteria, to name a few, couldn’t cause autism. And it doesn’t prove that an interaction between the many ingredients in a vaccine or between different vaccines given at the same time couldn’t cause autism.

To me, this would be like taking one ingredient out of cigarettes, seeing no drop in the cancer rate, and saying that cigarettes don’t cause cancer. What is the difference? There is no reasonable, logical thinking here, let alone scientific proof.

A FEW QUOTES

So, just briefly, I’ll stop thinking out loud and mention some of the quotes I’ve found on causation and correlation. I chose these because I think they are—you got it—reasonable and logical.

“Obviously, it is much more difficult to prove causation than it is to prove an association. Should we just ignore associations? No! Not at all!!! Not even close!!! Correlations are crucial for research and still need to be looked at and studied …” [2]

“It’s hard to nail down causation conclusively, as evidenced by tobacco company lawyers who argued for forty years that smoking merely ‘correlated’ to lung cancer rather than actually caused it. However, the least you can do is pause and ask yourself what other possible causes exist … If they do exist, you need to think through the evidence and determine why these other causes are less likely than the one you propose.” [3]

I think this is especially relevant to my grandson’s story (Unlocking Jake: The Story of a Rabies Vaccine, Recovery & Autism). Jake was 3½ years old when he developed autism after a series of rabies vaccines. As I’ve explained before, he was not sick, he was not on any medication, he hadn’t been bitten or stung by anything, and he hadn’t ingested any type of poison. Nothing could explain what happened to him except for the rabies vaccines. In my AutismOne interview on Voice America this week, Teri Arranga asked me if I thought the rabies vaccine could have been Jake’s toxic tipping point. I have thought about this a lot, and I’ll probably never know for sure. It’s possible. Maybe if he hadn’t had 30 doses of vaccines between 1 day old and 15 months old, he wouldn’t have regressed into autism after the rabies vaccines. The one thing I do know is that the rabies vaccine caused autism in my grandson. There was no other possible cause. None.

“…correlation does not imply causation, even though in fact some of the most important scientific advances have come precisely because scientists did investigate that implication. … Correlation is not causation but it sure is a hint.” [4] These are the words of Edward Tufte, Professor Emeritus of political science, statistics, and computer science at Yale University. Tufte holds a Ph.D in political science from Yale and a B.S. and an M.S. in statistics from Stanford University. In early 2010, he was appointed by President Obama to serve on the independent panel that advises the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board. [5]

And, last but not least, from Austin Bradford Hill: “Finally, in passing from association to causation I believe in ‘real life’ we shall have to consider what flows from that decision. On scientific grounds we should do no such thing. The evidence is there to be judged on its merits and the judgment (in that sense) should be utterly independent of what hangs upon it—or who hangs because of it. But in another and more practical sense we may surely ask what is involved in our decision.” [6] It’s pretty obvious who stands to lose when the truth about vaccines and autism can no longer be denied.

Hill (1897–1991), by the way, was a British medical statistician who outlined criteria necessary to prove causation. “Hill’s Criteria” forms the basis of modern epidemiological research. You can read all nine of them, but one idea in particular stands out. Just because a perceived association (in this case, between vaccines and autism) doesn’t agree with established theory (that vaccines don’t cause autism), that doesn’t mean the association is false. “… It may, in fact, force a reconsideration of accepted beliefs and principles.” [7]

After a 17 Year Struggle, Baby Disabled From Vaccines Wins 3 Million Euros in Compensation

Childhood Lost -- When a child is injured by vaccination, the parents often struggle many years without compensation.

After 17 years the French State Council finally acknowledged the devastating injuries a five month old baby suffered after receiving a five in one vaccination from her doctor.

In 1995, five months old Ines received the Pentacoq vaccine as part of her regular scheduled childhood vaccinations. One week later the tiny baby was rushed to hospital with serious neurological complications said to have been caused by the vaccine, leaving her with 95% disabilities

The Pentacoq vaccine was given to French babies in the early 1990’s to protect them from whooping cough, haemophilus influenza type b (Hib), diphtheria, tetanus and polio. However, in 1995 due to many children suffering from severe sides affects the vaccination was banned and later replaced.

According to the website ‘Prevent Disease,’ (1) at the time baby Ines was vaccinated, the vaccination was mandatory and therefore the MSA (French Farmers Mutual Insurance) paid her medical costs. The French State Council has now ruled that the Government, and more specifically the Ministry of Health, are to pay not only 3 million euros in compensation to this severely disabled young woman but also to compensate the MSA for all of the medical costs that they incurred.

Pre-2002, the French government assumed any risk linked to vaccinations, however, in 2004 this changed and the responsibility for vaccine related injuries shifted to ONIAM (French Medical Malpractice Compensation Authority) who are now required to pay vaccine-related benefits. Sanofi-Pasteur, the manufacturer of the Pentacoq vaccine, escaped scot-free.

Prevent Disease reported:

It will have taken the Courts 17 years to settle this claim. For the victim and her family, it has been 17 years of waiting and hoping for benefits while the Ministry of Health and Sport, now represented by Xavier Bertrand, dragged its feet; 17 years of lawyers’ time paid by the government, a.k.a. the taxpayer, in litigation against the victim and her family.

 (Following the trail of links through, the original paper on the case in French can be found on easydroit.fr (2))

According to the Easydroit report, the vaccinations baby Ines received in 1995 were mandatory and caused him to suffer from rhombomyélite. This has left him with permanent neurological damage (different translations are giving different genders). As a direct result of his injuries the medical bills for Ines which include specialist equipment have totalled a massive $ 47,412.18 now needing to be paid by the state.

Sadly, lessons have not been learned and the curse of the pentavalent vaccines still exists. It appears that the five in one wonder vaccine still causes death and disability wherever it goes. An open letter sent to Dr Margaret Chan, the Director General, of the WHO (3) by the ‘All India Drug Action Network (AIDAN)’ reported that deaths caused by this vaccine were currently being recorded all over India.  The letter entitled ‘Pentavalent Vaccine Related Deaths’ says:

‘As you would know, there have been several Pentavalent vaccine related deaths in Sri Lanka, Bhutan and Pakistan. Using the WHO approved classification of AEFI (Adverse Events Following Immunization) many of these deaths are ‘probably related to the immunization’ because no alternate cause for the adverse events has been found. However an expert panel looking at the deaths in Sri Lanka deleted ‘probably related’ and ‘possibly related’ from the classification of Brighton for purposes of their evaluation report, and then certified that the vaccines were ‘unlikely to be due to the vaccines’. (sic)

AIDAN wrote that despite the fact that the WHO had delisted a number of different prequalified pentavalent vaccines the problem had refused to go away. They said that the vaccine had been introduced into India at the end of last year, to evaluate its safety but according to an affidavit filed in the Kerala High Court by the Government of Kerala India four deaths had been reported in the first two months.

It appears that the letter made little impact whatsoever on Dr Chan’s conscience because recently it was reported that she and her colleagues have been introducing the vaccine to as many states of India as possible. It has now been reported that a total of six more states Gujarat, Karnataka, Haryana, Goa, J&K and Pondicherry have been earmarked to receive the vaccination.  (4)

India is not the only country to have had problems with the five in one killer. At the end of last year a nine week old premature baby died in Belgium after she received 9 shots in one day which included the ill fated pentavalent vaccine. (5)

So how many vaccines are a safe number of vaccines?

History has taught us that young children’s immune systems do not cope with multiple vaccinations and yet we chose to keep on vaccinating them. The MMR and the DPT both have long tainted histories of causing death and destruction and yet despite this fact the pharmaceutical industries are happy to keep on developing more and more multiple vaccinations which are accepted onto the market with minimal testing. ‘The more vaccines in one syringe the better’’ seems to be the government’s motto, however, many professionals describe this as more of a cost cutting exercise than an exercise in safety.

Many of the ingredients used in vaccines are considered to be dangerous and different vaccinations contain different ingredients. Many of us are unaware that when these ingredients are combined, their toxic effects can multiply, making them potentially lethal. Donald W Miller describes this extremely well in his paper- Mercury on the Mind. (6) He says that:

“A small dose of mercury that kills 1 in 100 rats and a dose of aluminum that will kill 1 in 100 rats, when combined have a striking effect: all the rats die. Doses of mercury that have a1 percent mortality will have a 100 percent mortality rate if some aluminum is there. Vaccines contain aluminum.”

In other words the more vaccines a baby is given in one day the more toxic the multiple ingredients are likely to be. Chas M Higgins (7) once described vaccinations as BLOOD POISONING WITH INFLICTED DISEASE which he described as OFTEN MORE FATAL THAN NATURAL DISEASE’. With the amount of children dying after the five in one vaccine he could be right. Higgins described vaccinations as being so violent and dangerous that they have been frequently known to kill in as little as ten to fifteen minutes.

Higgins paper is probably the strongest outcry of protest against vaccination that I have ever read and it is certainly a must read for anyone who is contemplating vaccinations. Perhaps if more people had heeded his warnings in 1920 when this paper was published the situation we now face may never have reached this point. It certainly appears that the pharmaceutical industries hand in hand with our governments are on a mission to kill and maim as many innocent babies as possible and are targeting them from birth.

It is about time this madness stopped and instead of poisoning children with multiple vaccinations; children were allowed to develop their own natural immunity just as nature intended.

Are Vaccines Damaging Your Baby’s Liver?

The Hep-B vaccine may be damaging your baby's liver.

Last week I received an email from the Autism Action Network.   The Vermont legislature voted to preserve their philosophical exemption to vaccines, thus upholding parental rights.  This huge victory is credited to the relentless work of parents, a coalition of health rights organizations and vaccine safety advocates.

The email states, “This is an important defeat in the nationwide effort the vaccine industry has launched to reduce parental control over vaccine decisions for their children.”

According to an article in the Burlington Free Press on May 4th, 2012 by Terri Hallenbeck, “parents from the Vermont Coalition for Vaccine Choice blitzed legislators with emails, phone calls, and conversations.”

Hallenbeck notes that Vermont House of Representatives member George Till, MD who introduced the bill, cited studies from the W.H.O. and the National Academy of Science saying side effects from vaccines are rare, and that adverse events are often incorrectly linked to vaccines.  This, of course, is the same ‘pap’ they have been dishing out for years, which is clearly subject to debate.  We can flip this around and say adverse events are rarely correctly linked to vaccines!

Anyway, there is now overwhelming documentation of significant health damage among the population from vaccines.  The moms and citizens are living it, and Representative Dr. Till credited the defeat of his bill (to eliminate the philosophical exemption) to involved citizens, who while small in number were very vocal.

Clearly, we are making progress!

Apropos of the above, a May 2012 article in the journal Apoptosis, entitled, Hepatitis B vaccine induces apoptotic death in hepa 1-6 cells by Hamza, et. al., drives home the dangers of vaccination by demonstrating the death of liver cells from the Hepatitis B vaccine along with a loss of mitochondrial energy, which these authors have show to have been caused by this Hep-B vaccine.

Remember the Hanah Poling vaccine-induced autism case in which they identified a mitochondrial disorder thought to be “activated” rather than caused by the vaccinations Hannah received?  Well here we have research demonstrating a vaccine CAUSING a mitochondrial disorder!

The article’s abstract opens with “Vaccines can have adverse side-effects, and these are predominantly associated with the inclusion of chemical additives such as aluminum hydroxide adjuvant;” and states, “We conclude that exposure of Hepa1-6 cells to a low dose of adjuvanted hepatitis B vaccine leads to loss of mitochondrial integrity, apoptosis induction, and cell death, [emphasis mine] apoptosis effect was observed also in C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line after treated with low dose of vaccine (0.3, 0.1, 0.05 μg/ml). In addition In vivo apoptotic effect of hepatitis B vaccine was observed in mouse liver.”

In other words, the toxicity of the vaccine in very low doses was observed both in actual live mouse liver as well as in cell lines from the mouse.  Are we destroying our babies’ livers with these vaccines? Non-alcoholic liver disease has become a virtual epidemic in recent years.  Could vaccines be implicated?

‘Me thinks’ we have still more real chinks in the armor of the vaccinators.  Studies of this nature can be used to educate legislators on why we need vaccine safety research and why we must allow opt-out options for parents who are educated to the dark side of vaccination.

Gardasil May Cause Cancer

Healthy teenage girls are a huge market for HPV vaccine makers.

When we see the term “cancer vaccine” in connection with the HPV (human  papilloma virus) vaccine Gardasil we may naturally assume that  it prevents cervical cancer, yet there is no evidence whatsoever that this is the case. (1)  On the contrary, the term is incorrect because unbelievable though it may sound Gardasil may actually cause cancer. This fact is being ignored by Merck the manufacturer and other promoters including doctors and health authorities.

NOT TESTED FOR CARCINOGENICITY

Information in the package insert states that the vaccine has not been tested for carcinogenicity. (2) Why has this not been done?  Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence!  There appears to be no official requirement for vaccines to be tested for carcinogenicity and no incentive for manufacturers to do so.  Many experts consider that vaccines are conducive towards the dramatic worldwide increase in cancer cases.

REPLACEMENT MAY CAUSE DEVELOPMENT OF CANCER

A normal phenomenon in virology is that virus strains which have been removed are replaced by new ones.  It is not known by anyone, including the vaccine manufacturer  whether the new virus strains are more carcinogenic than the original ones which have been removed.

The chief editor of the Journal of the Norwegian Medical Association, immunologist Charlotte Haug writes about several unanswered questions including that of replacement in her article “We Need to Talk about HPV Vaccination – Seriously”:

Abhorred vacuum.There is another serious question that may be answered sooner:  what effect will the vaccine have on the other cancer-causing strains of HPV? Nature never leaves a void, so if HPV-16 and HPV-18  are suppressed by an effective vaccine, other strains of the virus will take their place. The question is, will these strains cause cervical cancer?

Results from clinical trials are not encouraging. Vaccinated women show an increased number of precancerous lesions caused by strains of HPV other than HPV-16 and HPV-18. The results are not statistically significant, but if the trend is real – and further clinical trials should tell us in a few years – there is reason for serious concern. (3)

In an article in the New England Journal of Medicine  “ Human Papilloma Virus Vaccination – Reasons for Caution”,  Dr. Haug again poses the question of replacement:

“How will the vaccine affect other oncogenic strains of HPV? If HPV-16 and HPV-18 are effectively suppressed, will there be selective pressure on the remaining strains of HPV? Other strains may emerge as significant oncogenic serotypes”. (4)

INCREASE IN CERVICAL CANCER RISK FOR THOSE PREVIOUSLY EXPOSED TO THE HUMAN PAPILLOMA VIRUS

One of the most disturbing observations which deserves serious investigation  concerns the considerable potential  increase in risk of cancer after Gardasil vaccination for those who have been pre- exposed to the human papilloma virus.

Sanevax writes:

Peer-reviewed analysis and studies many of them on the FDA, NCI and CDC web sites point out the dangers of many of the vaccine ingredients including the potential for the HPV vaccines to increase the risk for pre-cancerous lesions if adolescents have been previously exposed to the human papillomavirus and then get vaccinated: 44.6% increase post Gardasil.

Judicial Watch writes in their Special Report “Examining The FDA’s HPV Vaccine Records”:

A chart in the committee’s report revealed that efficacy in subjects already exposed to “relevant HPV types” had an observed efficacy rate of -44.6%. The disturbing efficacy rate raises questions as to who should be receiving the vaccine, and why the FDA allows Gardasil to be administered without prescreening for HPV. The outcomes that can result from pre-exposure are disconcerting and deserve far more attention.(8)

HPV IS NOT JUST A SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTION – ALSO BABIES MAY BE INFECTED!

It is dangerous and  unethical of promoters to recommend Gardasil  when it is unknown whether there has been prior exposure to HPV infection. In an obvious attempt to encourage  thousands of young people to get vaccinated with Gardasil it is widely published that the vaccine should be given prior to sexual relations because HPV infection is sexually transmitted.  This is not necessarily the case. The promoters hide the fact that HPV may be transmitted from mother to child and has been detected in the placenta and in umbilical cord blood.(9)

NEWLY DISCOVERED INGREDIENT GENE MODIFIED DNA MAY LEAD TO MALIGNANCIES

The recent discovery of yet one more potentially cancer causing element connected to Gardasil sent shock waves across the world. This is the story which lead to its discovery:

A sexually naive girl developed acute juvenile rheumatoid arthritis at age 13 within 24 hours after  the third Gardasil injection and her blood sample – tested two years later – was found to be positive for HPV DNA by a local clinical laboratory. On request for more information by her mother  the Sanevax team contracted  an independent laboratory  for analysis of 13 samples of Gardasil, all from different lots.

The results showed that all the samples contained recombinant (genetically  modified) HPV DNA which was firmly attached to the aluminium adjuvant. (10)

The consequences of the presence of recombinant HPV DNA which is  considered a biohazard are unknown and may be horrific. The pathologist Dr. Lee stated:

“Based on medical literature and some of the FDA/Merck’s own publications, adventitious (coming from an outside source) DNA in an injectable protein-based vaccine may increase the risk of autoimmune disorders and gene mutation which may lead to malignancies.” (10)

Merck’s Gardasil product inserts stated “No viral DNAs in the vaccine” – until April 2011 when the line was glaringly absent from U.S. product inserts. (10)

It is shocking to see that FDA admits that it is generally impossible to remove DNA contaminants from vaccines. (11)

On contacting the authorities about the worrying discovery of recombinant HPV DNA in Gardasil, Sanevax received a prompt reply from the Department of Health referring to a statement by the CHMP  (European Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use) that  the presence of recombinant DNA fragments does not represent a case of contamination and is not considered to be a risk to vaccine recipients. (12)

No supporting documentation whatsoever has been provided to support this statement!

It is reasonable to assume that the vaccine would not have gained approval had the manufacturers informed the authorities of the presence of the aluminum bound gene manipulated DNA due to potential health risks.

The following issues which may be connected to increase of cancer risk should have been seriously addressed and results from unbiased studies presented before the vaccine was approved:

• Lack of carcinogenicity testing of the vaccine
• Replacement
• Increase in cancer risk for those previously exposed to human papilloma virus
• Presence of recombinant DNA (rDNA)

These important studies have not been presented.  Gardasil should therefore immediately be withdrawn from the market until satisfactory documentation has been provided.

When vaccine critics maintain that the vaccine is dangerous and that it should never have been approved the response from promoters is often a request  for evidence of proof to support the statements.

“It is not vaccine critics who must provide evidence that vaccines are dangerous;  it is the vaccine promoters’  responsibility to prove that vaccines are safe and effective and that the benefits outweigh the risks.”  - Marcella  Piper-Terry

Bird Flu Strain Lab-Engineered!

Reports are indicating a bird flu strain has been engineered.

The cat is out of the bag on bird flu—a strain has been laboratory engineered, and the U.S. government did everything it could to keep the lid on that research!

Thanks to the report published in Nature by a team out of the University of Wisconsin,

 …a mutated version of H5N1 passes from one ferret to another without trouble, the Los Angeles Times reported.  Spread in the air, the hybrid strain of bird flu included an H5 hemagglutinin, which plays a role in binding the virus to airway cells, and genes from the swine flu behind the 2009 pandemic. [1]

Did you note “ binding the virus to airway cells?”  What are they spraying in chemtrails?

Interestingly, the research at University of Wisconsin led by virologist Yoshihiro Kawaoka indicates, “how malleable flu strains can be in spreading from one mammalian host to another.”  Kawaoka admits that a mutation which  emerged in his study at U of W already has appeared in the Middle East and Asia.

However, there’s a second study whose ‘shoe will drop’ when it is published in the journal Science sometime in the future.

May 3^rd, 2012, The Los Angeles Times published Eryn Brown’s article “Bird flu can spread in mammals, study finds,” which can be read here http://www.latimes.com/health/la-he-bird-flu-20120503,0,6267062.story

The Washington Post published on May 2^nd the article “One of two controversial ‘bird flu’ papers is published” by David Brown at http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/one-of-two-controversial-bird-flu-papers-is-published/2012/05/02/gIQA51egxT_story.html

The genetic engineering of microorganisms indicates just how determined science is, in my opinion, to mess around with reprogramming disease patterns that can impact human health—and animal health—and may be ‘just what the doctor ordered’ for Big Pharma to come up with new vaccines and other pharmaceuticals to keep humans in fear, over-vaccinated, and ‘medication poor’.

Perhaps it’s time that healthcare consumers on a global basis take back their health from science and tell science to get out of Frankenstein mode.  We don’t need man-made pandemics that are supported by the World Health Organization, Big Pharma, the U.S. CDC and FDA, or anyone for that matter.  Humans deserve better, especially children—the future of the human race.
