Swine Flu Program Could Be Largest Vaccination Effort In Human History

"405 million Americans"? When did that happen? The U.S. Census Bureau gives the population at just over 307 million. The underenumeration rate is often assumed to be 3% but it is probably higher. However, it can't possibly be in the neighborhood of 33%.

Not counting vaccination programs against malaria or tuberculosis i presume?

So, to help combat lunatics..So, to help combat lunatics.. Nice way to help people create accurate, scientific decisions about real issues. I guess Dr. Boyd Haley, Pref. of Dept. of Chemistry is a lunatic along with many other doctors. I guess Bayers Aids contaminated drugs didn't kill anyone in France and other countries. Or congressman Dan Burtons address to Dr. William Egan is based on no factual basis.

In 1988, Dietrich used MRI to show that developmentally delayed children had alterations in their myelin. Coulter described that central nervous system damage can be exhibited as abnormal behavior of the child. In 1935, Thomas Rivers, experimental allergic encephalitis (EAE) can be the result of a viral or bacterial infection of the nervous system. "The fact of the matter is that it is a matter of record that it was known that vaccination produced encephalitis since 1926." The authors stated, "In regions in which there is no organized vaccination of the population, general paralysis is rare. ... It is impossible to deny a connection between vaccinations and the encephalitis (brain damage) which follows it." Vaccines have been linked to seizures, convulsions and epilepsy.

" ...Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible. Even if all are miserable, all will believe themselves happy, because the government will tell them that they are so." - page 62 "The Impact of Science on Society"

Nobody needs to be confused but EVERYBODY better be darn well frightened about taking ANY vaccine, under ANY circumstance, for ANY reason, at ANY time in their life."--Dr Duffy DC

I am no longer "trying to dig up evidence to prove" vaccines cause autism. There is already abundant evidence,...... This debate is not scientific but is political. --- [July 9, 2006 Blog/letter] Discovering the causes, treatment of autism ----David Ayoub, MD

"My own personal view is that vaccines are unsafe and worthless. I will not allow myself to be vaccinated again. .....The bottom line is that infectious diseases are least likely to affect (and to kill) those who have healthy immune systems. I no longer believe that vaccines have any role to play in the protection of the community or the individual. Vaccines may be profitable but, in my view, they are neither safe nor effective. I prefer to put my trust in building up my immune system."---Dr Vernon Coleman MB

"Vaccines are highly dangerous, have never been adequately studied or proven to be effective, and have a poor risk/reward ratio. Most surgery is unnecessary and most textbooks of medicine are inaccurate and deceptive. Almost every disease is said to be idiopathic (without known cause) or genetic - although this is untrue. In short, our main stream medical system is hopelessly inept and/or corrupt. The treatment of cancer and degenerative diseases is a national scandal. The sooner you learn this, the better off you will be."----Dr. Allan Greenberg

I'll talk about vaccines. Number one, vaccines make people sick. They don't work. They don't protect. The use of vaccines is totally wrong! It's perfect nonsense based on fear. It's fear of the disease. So, in order for you not to get the disease I, as your doctor, am going to give the disease to you right away, but not as strong. This way your body will know about the disease and, if you ever get it in the future, you won't be as sick the second time......What they say is total nonsense. If I came to you and said, "I'm going to perform a little sexual assault on you---a small rape---because, one day you could meet a rapist and you could be raped. But, it won't be as bad the second time as the first time." This is exactly the same thing as giving someone a vaccine, or a little bit of disease. It's nonsense! Immunization is total nonsense! More than that is what's hidden from people about vaccines. They are dangerous. One child out of five has overwhelming disabilities from vaccines---neurological problems, seizures. I've got a whole list. There are plenty of books on this subject. Doctors don't even read about this. An Interview With Guylaine Lanctot, M.D. By Kenneth & Dee Burke

"The greatest threat of childhood diseases lies in the dangerous and ineffectual efforts made to prevent them through mass immunization.....There is no convincing scientific evidence that mass inoculations can be credited with eliminating any childhood disease."--Dr Robert Mendelsohn, M.D.

"They claim that autism naturally occurs at about 18 months, when the MMR is routinely given, so the association is merely coincidental and not causal. But the onset of autism at 18 months is a recent development. Autism starting at 18 months rose very sharply in the mid-1980s, when the MMR vaccine came into wide use. A coincidence? Hardly!"--Dr Rimland

"Whenever we read vaccine papers the MD researchers always assume that if there are high antibody levels after vaccination, then there is immunity (immunogencity). But are antibody levels and immunity the same? No! Antibody levels are not the same as IMMUNITY. The recent MUMPS vaccine fiasco in Switzerland has re-emphasized this point. Three mumps vaccines-Rubini, Jeryl-Lynn and Urabe (the one withdrawn because it caused encephalitis) all produced excellent antibody levels but those vaccinated with the Rubini strain had the same attack rate as those not vaccinated at all, there were some who said that it actually caused outbreaks. Ref: Schegal M et al Comparative efficacy of three mumps vaccines during disease outbreak in Switzerland: cohort study. BMJ, 1999; 319:352-3."--Ted Koren DC

"As a clinician, my current belief which guides my practice with these children is that any child given the HepB vaccination at birth and subsequent boosters along with DPT has received unacceptable levels of neurotoxin in the form of the ethyl mercury in the thimerosal preservative used in the vaccine. In any child with a genetic immune susceptibility (probably about one in six) this sets off a series of events that injure the brain-gut-immune system. By the time they are ready to receive the MMR vaccination, their immune system is so impaired in a great number of these children that the triple vaccine cannot be handled by the now dysfunctional immune system and they begin their obvious descent into the autistic spectrum disorder."---Jaquelyn McCandless, M.D

"forced me to look into the question of vaccination further, and the further I looked the more shocked I became. I found that the whole vaccine business was indeed a gigantic hoax. Most doctors are convinced that they are useful, but if you look at the proper statistics and study the instances of these diseases you will realize that this is not so . . .
My final conclusion after forty years or more in this business [medicine] is that the unofficial policy of the World Health Organization and the unoffical policy of the 'Save the Children's Fund' and ... [other vaccine promoting] organizations is one of murder and genocide. . . . I cannot see any other possible explanation. . . . You cannot immunize sick children, malnourished children, and expect to get away with it. You'll kill far more children than would have died from natural infection."--Dr Kalokerinos (International Vaccine Newsletter June 1995)

Lunatics? Mistakes about the about the US population 5 seconds of googling before you write could have fixed. Lunatics? Thank you to the people above for pointing out in detail how many problems there have been. The last large scale vaccinations for the swine flu in 1976 incapacitated and killed people, that one fact alone (another 5 seconds of googling) should have been enough.

Stuart, I've read this site for a long time and your posts are invariably so buried in political overtones they've become useless. If you can't find out how to fact check and find objectivity, you really need to find another line of work. This is science and fact, political correctness does not equate to correctness.

There seems to be a sense in some people, frighteningly most common in journalists now, that as long as it's politically correct, you can make up any facts you wish and somehow it will all work. It doesn't.

Can you guys open the basement door? I've got my tinfoil hat and I want to come downstairs.

I was the first to announce the "autism epidemic", in 1995, and I pointed out in that article that excessive vaccines were a plausible cause of the epidemic. As you know, an enormous amount of clinical laboratory research (as opposed to epidemiological research), has been accumulated since that time, supporting my position. (I did not know then that the vaccines contained mercury, although I had been collecting data since 1967 from the mothers of autistic children, on any dental work they may have had during their pregnancy.) The evidence is now overwhelming, despite the misinformation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Institute of Medicine. The (Pretending to) Combat Autism Act By Bernard Rimland

I would also be particularly interested to learn of any documented cases of completely unvaccinated children who have later dramatically and inexplicably regressed into autism after a normal infancy. To date, no such case has ever been identified to me.[pdf March 2006] MMR Vaccine, Thimerosal and Regressive or Late Onset Autism A Review of the Evidence for a Link Between Vaccination and Regressive Autism--David Thrower

CDC officials, who maintain autism is a genetic disorder and irreversible, cannot tolerate the existence of children whose autistic behaviors have disappeared after chelation therapy removes vaccine-related mercury and other toxins from their bodies.[NVIC 3/2006] Chelation for autism

Several of the participants tried to imply that autism was a genetic disorder and therefore could have nothing to do with vaccines. Dr. Weil put that to rest with this comment, "We don't see that kind of genetic change in 30 years." In other words, how can we suddenly see a 300% increase in a genetically related disorder over such a short period? It is also known that there are two forms of autism, one that is apparent at birth and one that develops later in childhood. The former has not changed in incidence since statistics have been kept; the other is epidemic. THE TRUTH BEHIND THE VACCINE COVER-UP By Russell Blaylock, M.D.

Searching for children who had not been exposed to mercury in vaccines -- the kind of population that scientists typically use as a "control" in experiments -- Dan Olmsted scoured the Amish of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, who refuse to immunize their infants. Given the national rate of autism, Olmsted calculated that there should be 130 autistics among the Amish. He found only four. One had been exposed to high levels of mercury from a power plant. The other three -- including one child adopted from outside the Amish community -- had received their vaccines.----Deadly Immunity By ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR.

"The fact is that sooner or later, Andrew Wakefield will be exonerated, his theory will be accepted and a vaccine-autism connection will be proven. As the New Year comes around, Wakefield's research is being duplicated in prestigious centers in the United States. In addition, viral culture results are expected soon from the National Institutes of Health laboratories. "--[letter BMJ 2005] F. Edward Yazbak,

Recently, my VACCINATED DPT autistic child came down with PERTUSSIS (which he lived through just fine). While in the ER, I came across four other nurses with a child with autism, who in secret meetings to me between doctors and tests, revealed that they too felt their children were vaccine induced autistic. [Letter BMJ 19 July 2004] Cathy Blanco

"In my view, this is not a scientific issue. This is about as proven an issue as you’re ever going to see, and what’s occurring here is a cover up under the guise of protecting the vaccine program. And I’m for the vaccine program. You keep covering it up and your not going to have a vaccine program," Geier

[2004 jan] In conclusion, for those who have a decreased ability to excrete mercury, as has been demonstrated for several different genotypes, there can be little doubt that mercury concentrations once administered to children as part of the childhood routine vaccination schedule resulted in a significant number of children developing autism. This is especially true following a sudden increase in the amount of mercury administered, as occurred in the United States in the early 1990s when the amount of mercury administered to children in the first six months of life more than doubled as part of the routine childhood immunization schedule (i.e. from 75 micrograms of mercury from three DTP immunizations to 187.5 micrograms from three DTP, three Hib, and three hepatitis B immunizations).....It is also clear that if somehow, despite the over whelming evidence, the IOM determines, that either thimerosal did not cause or that they are not sure that it caused the current epidemic of autism and other neurological disorders, that the IOM must demand the immediate expenditure of billions of dollars as part of an all out effort to immediately determine what is causing this epidemic before it totally destroys our society. [jan 2004] A Review of the Relationship between Thimerosal and Autism. David A. Geier and Mark R. Geier, MD

"There are many studies that seek to deny an MMR/autism link, but it is possible to demonstrate that each is flawed in several ways. These studies are also statistical/epidemiological-type studies - not studies of the actual children involved. They are also based upon small (for statistical-type studies) samples. There are strong grounds for believing that the safety studies of MMR were cursory, that the potential for damage was not recognised, and that subsequent safety follow-up has been conspicuously lacking. There are many papers that point - some of them powerfully - to an MMR/autism link. Some of these studies involve analysis of samples of the actual children involved. Putting the above conclusions together, there appears to be strong grounds for believing that children have been damaged, and are still being damaged, by MMR, and probably by other vaccines. No alternative credible explanation has been put forward for these children's condition. The explanation that their degeneration into autism is biologically linked to MMR or thiomersal, or both, is also supported by the consistent accounts of the parents of the actual children."--David Thrower 2003 Jan

"Dr. Singh reported his own anecdotal survey of apparently vaccine-injured children with regressive autism. He found that 93% of cases had autistic symptoms shortly after vaccinations. Of these, 52% were post-MMR, 8% post MMR and DPT, and 33% post-DPT. Just 7% were not linked by the parents to any vaccination. He acknowledged that the survey was non-scientific."--David Thrower

" We have learned that a majority of parents whose children have late-onset or acquired autism believe it is vaccine-related. They deserve answers. We have also learned that the parents have been our best investigators in looking for both causes of autism and for treatments. "--Dan Burton http://www.whale.to/v/burton1.html

"The evidence that vaccines are a major cause of the increase comes from a number of directions. One direction that's been largely ignored are the laboratory studies. There are at least seven laboratory studies, clinical studies, of blood, cerebral, spinal fluid, biopsies of autistic children which show huge differences between autistic children and normal children in terms of the presence of things like measles vaccine virus in their intestinal tract, for example, or their neurons. So, there's one line of evidence. Another, of course, is that we have data from thousands of parents who testify, often with videotapes and photographs and eyewitness reports, that their kid was perfectly normal. And they can demonstrate it, as I say, very conclusively with tapes until after the vaccine. The kid retreated into autism. There's just converging evidence from many, many directions."-- (Nov 2002) Bernard Rimland PhD

"We are in the midst of an international epidemic. Those responsible for investigating and dealing with this epidemic have failed. Among the reasons for this failure is the fact that they are faced with the prospect that they themselves may be responsible for the epidemic. Therefore, in their efforts to exonerate themselves they are an impediment to progress. I believe that public health officials know there is a problem; they are, however, willing to deny the problem and accept the loss of an unknown number of children on the basis that the success of public health policy - mandatory vaccination - by necessity involves sacrifice. Neither I, nor my colleagues subscribe to the belief that any child is expendable. History has encountered and dealt with such beliefs. You, the parent's and children, are the source of the inspiration and strength for our endeavours; our quest for truth through science - a science that is compassionate, uncompromising and uncompromised. I do not mean to stir you to mutiny, but be assured that armed with this science it is in your power to force this issue, in your pediatricians office, in Congress, in the Law Courts. Keep faith with your instincts - they have served you well."---Andy Wakefield (April 22, 2002 "POWER of ONE - IDEA" Rally, Washington DC)

"The conclusion of the research report was: Children who received all of the AAP recommended vaccinations were 14 times more likely to become learning disabled and 8 times more likely to become autistic compared with children who were never vaccinated. Donald Meserlian, P.E., VOSI Chairman & ASTM Member March 2002

"Bernard Rimland, Ph.D., has provided the statistics that, in their experience, from 50 to 60% of parents with autistic children believe that their children were damaged by vaccines. In our own office we have seen many autistic children in recent years, and our own experience has been very similar, many parents reporting that deterioration of their children took place following vaccines."--Dr Buttram MD

"Dr. Ed Yazbak, a pediatric infectious disease specialist from Boston, said research will not find a chromosome responsible for autism. He is a former professor at Brown University now studying the medical histories of children with autism in an effort to determine what triggered their condition. "Research will show there is a genetic predisposition to autism. What we have to find is the environmental insult," he said."--Experts: Redefine Autism as Systemic Illness

"As a clinician, my current belief which guides my practice with these children is that any child given the HepB vaccination at birth and subsequent boosters along with DPT has received unacceptable levels of neurotoxin in the form of the ethyl mercury in the thimerosal preservative used in the vaccine. In any child with a genetic immune susceptibility (probably about one in six) this sets off a series of events that injure the brain-gut-immune system.

Meserlian, P.E., Chairman.

"I have hundreds of new friends who know their child's autism is from vaccines. They as parents know their children better then anyone and watched their children slip into the autism world after a vaccine. And no not all of them were MMR vaccines. Some were DTP vaccines."---Danielle Sarkine

"Vaccination programs were instituted in the late 1930s, and the first handful of autistic babies were noted in the early 1940s. When vaccination programs were expanded after the war, the number of autistic children increased greatly."---Harris Coulter Ph.D.

"Dr Kenneth Aitken, a specialist in the treatment of autism, believes there is a clear link between autism and the MMR jab. "When I was training, one in 2,500 [children were autistic]. Now it is one in 250. At the moment, the only logical explanation for this is MMR," he said."--Media

Disintegrative psychosis is recognized as a sequel to measles encephalitis. Viral encephalitis can give rise to autistic disorders, particularly when it occurs early in life. *Wing L, The autistic Spectrum London Constable, 1996 pg 68-71

The guy that usually sits next to me at work is off sick, having just been diagnosed with H1N1, a colleague of my wife died from H1N1 last month. I'll be pushing my way to the head of the queue once the vaccinations become available.

I noticed that smallpox vaccinations were in the list posted by one of the loonies above. I wonder if that article on a few minor side effects mentioned the many thousands of people who died of that disease, or that smallpox was rendered extinct due to the widespread vaccination.

What the hell has this world come too? It just gets better and better by the day! Do these satanists really think that all Americans are going to fall blind to there scare tactics? This swine flu pandemic has been a fraud from day 1 people!

I wish everyone would wake up and realize what the hell is going on here. I honestly dont want to live in this type of world and i really dont think the rest of the populas will either.

This vaccine that they are trying to push off on to everyone has not been tested like it should be and even if it was succesful in not killing anyone at the moment doesnt mean it wont later on down the road.

People, read up on the chemicals that they are using in this stuff, then ask yourself if you want you, your family, or your children to be given a shot of this poison?

I cant say what others will do, but i will promise that when push comes to shove i, for 1 wont take it!! And neither will my family! This is just totally insane that a government ''WE THE PEOPLE'' elect could try and force the very people that they are supposed to be working for to submit themselves to a fast produced,untested vaccine!

Besides, how do we even know that the people that are volunteering the test vaccine are even getting the real thing? Ask yourself that for a moment?

People,ive thought this from day 1 that it is nothing more than a fraud & hoax! Maybe iam wrong, but only time will tell!
Its just insanely unreal!

Come on, Stu, you're not shilling for Big Pharma are you?
There's no one lower than a drug pusher. Lunatics, indeed, sir!

dennisw, that jumped out at me too. Although the population they're claiming is 600 million. 195 million initial doses plus enough for 405 million people.

I'm wondering if that's not a mistake by the journalist hearing something and not thinking. I thought 2 doses of vaccine may be needed instead of 1. So they might be estimatind doses, not people.

The vaccine dose require two doses, so ~600 million doses would be needed to vaccinate every American.

personaly, I believe this is all hype, were just so sick of nothing happening here in the US that we jump at the first oppertunity of making it into this big deal out of nothing..

Their should be a full investigation of the Food & Drug Administration, and how they take kickbacks from the drug Companies and their lobbyists.

I always wondered why they made Nasal B12 a prescription Drug, I know kickbacks were involved their! Arthur Rudolph of Puritan Pride spent over 250,000 dollars to save Ener-B as a over the counter product, but a bunch of upstate New york politicians stole it away from him, and they sold the company last year Nascobal for 46 million! How much other crap is going on in the Drug Companies, which the FDA is involved with. Nasal B12 Ener-B was a over the counter Vitamin, and in the right strength does Destroy the Flu virus, on contact! But the FDA screwed the people out of having a Drug that cures any Flu Virus now, by their planed tactics!

www.popsci.com/node/22953 is the Cure! You can make it at home. It might save you a lot of pain and misery. Vaccines has become a dangerous racket, The CDC has 570 research programs on vaccines, and not one on how to destroy viruses! You figure it out! Merck invented B-12 in 1948, over 50 years ago, they know what Nasal B12 can do and also a lot of other Drug Companies, but let face it The Flu and Cold Racket is a 2 trillion dollar business a year! If they Cure the Flu, then no more vaccines, and no more Money, so let the Masses suffer and Die!

I got a Flu shot one time,1957, not because I wanted it, but because I was in the Air Force, and if I didn't take it, they would Court Marshal me, because I was Government property. I got Pneumonia, and was in the hospital for 6 days! NEVER AGAIN!

"So, to help combat lunatics who say the vaccines cause autism or that the program is a front for Obama's secret socialist re-education camps (I've already said too much...)"

Nice way to dismiss the concerns of millions of parents who actually care if the vaccines given to their children are harmful. Why would anyone be considered a "lunatic" for objecting to having mercury injected into their children when mercury is a material considered hazardous by the EPA and The Department of Defense, and is known to cause neurological disorders especially in the developing nervous systems of children and infants?

Do you suppose that a mercury filled multidose vial is cheaper to produce than the non mercury containing single dose vial? Could it be that the health of children takes a back seat to the profit margin of the pharmaceutical companies who are producing toxic waste masquerading as medicine?

I don't know about you, Stuart, but in a world where the odds of my son being exposed to swine flu are low, and being injected with toxic heavy metals are a 100% certainty if given the vaccine for swine flu, the choice seems logical.

And i would recommend that before you dismiss something so glibly, you might do well to consider the importance of that issue and actually take a moment to inform yourself about that which you are speaking. Otherwise, you just look stupid, or worse, ignorant.

Go to the front of the line! Roll up your sleeve! Follow the flock! Baaaa, baaaa, baaaa!

Insulting your readers and printing misinformation are great ways to diminish your credibility.

It boils down to this. The shot is, and should be, elective. The information about the shot, it's contents, testing, et al... should be open and transparent - it isn't.

Do your homework then come back.
