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

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

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

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

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

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

“Update on Rotavirus Vaccines

In March 2010, FDA became aware of the presence PCV1 in Rotarix and DNA from PCV1 and PCV2 in RotaTeq. These viruses are not known to cause any infection or illness in people. Based on a careful review of a variety of scientific information, FDA has determined it is appropriate for clinicians and public health professionals in the United States to use these vaccines. All available evidence supports the safety and effectiveness of Rotarix and RotaTeq, which have been extensively studied, both before and after approval.”

With this hurdle out of the way, Glaxo Smith Kline’s next problems came with their flu vaccine Fluarix. The vaccine was found to be causing children to suffer vomiting, fevers and seizures. The side effects affected some children so adversely that it left one poor child in a coma, causing Australia to take the unusual step of actually banning this vaccine altogether.

Natural News says:-

“Australian parents found out the hard way that they were being lied to.

It didn’t take long to realize the truth after their children start going into convulsions following the flu vaccine injections. Other children began vomiting or exhibiting dangerously high levels of fever. One child has gone into a coma and may never recover.”

Mike Adams from Natural News continued:-

“Vaccinated children suffering severe convulsions were piling up in hospital emergency rooms across the country.

The real kicker, though, is that children started having convulsions two weeks ago but Australian health authorities ignored them, insisting that the vaccine was safe and causing it to be injected in yet more babies. Two weeks later, with dozens more children experiencing convulsions (and who knows how many thousands actually being harmed in less obvious ways), Commonwealth chief health officer Professor Jim Bishop finally announced the vaccination ban.”

With these problems still not yet resolved Glaxo Smith Kline next hit problems with their H1N1 vaccine, the vaccine to protect the public from Swine Flu. Glaxo’s vaccine Pandemrix was reported to be causing the sleep disorder Narcolepsy in some patients. The Daily Telegraph reported that so far there have been 27 reports of suspected narcolepsy in people across Europe. They said:-

“Finland suspended its national vaccination programme on Tuesday after eight suspected cases of narcolepsy following administration of the jab. A further ten cases have been reported in Sweden, six in France, and one each in Germany and Norway.”

Things are really not going too well for Glaxo Smith Kline who say in their GlaxoSmithKline Briefings – Working Together for the Health of Mothers and Children paper:-

“For decades, GSK has produced safe and effective products to help reduce the burden of disease and improve the lives of children and mothers. With our partners, we are constantly challenging our business model to find new ways of researching and delivering our products in order to provide sustainable solutions that reduce mortality in mothers and children and break the cycle of decline from illness. Better health leads to better economic development.”

Personally I am not convinced.

Another GSK vaccine with a difficult history of side effects and one which has constantly appeared in the UK media especially last year, is Cervarix, the vaccine to protect young women against cervical cancer. The side effects of this vaccine have been so bad that they were discussed by MP’s in the Houses of Parliament in the House of Commons. I wrote in September 2009 in an article So is it ALL in parents heads or is it in THE syringe? Cervarix danger by vaccination when the vaccine was approved by the FDA the following:-

“This will have been recommended because of what is written in the CERVARIX Human Papillomavirus Bivalent (Types 16 and 18) Vaccine, Recombinant Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) Briefing Document September 9, 2009 which I was lucky enough to receive a link to a copy through one of my colleagues from ICAP-International Coalition of Advocates for the People, from the Netherlands. Once again it seems that women and children are just ‘lab rats’ for GSK to test on. It says in section 6

“Health Outcomes:-

Given the natural history of HPV disease, reduction in cervical cancer due to vaccination will take years and even decades. GSK has developed a model using a standardized approach (details of methodology are currently undergoing independent review by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC]) in order to estimate how Cervarix may impact future cervical cancer incidence and related deaths in US girls and women.”

Further down in original studies it is interesting to note :- (SAE = Serious Adverse Event)

“Of the 43 subjects who withdrew due to SAEs, study discontinuation resulted from a fatal event in 28 subjects (11 subjects in HPV group and 17 subjects in pooled controls; one subject in HAV720 group withdrew because of the death of her child due to congenital heart disease). See Section 7.3.5 for further details of all fatal events reported all clinical studies in which Cervarix has been administered. The other 15 subjects withdrew due to non-fatal SAEs, none of which were considered as causally related to vaccination by the study investigator”

Also

“The most commonly individual SAEs reported during the vaccination period were:

• Spontaneous pregnancy loss (including incomplete and complete spontaneous loss and missed abortion) with 59 subjects (1.87 per 1000 subjects) in HPV group and 51 subjects (2.15 per 1000 subjects) in the control group,

• Appendicitis with 25 subjects (0.79 per 1000 subjects) in the HPV group and 27 subjects (1.14 per 1000 subjects) in the control group,

• Dengue fever with 10 subjects (0.32 per 1000 subjects) in the HPV group and 10 (0.42 per 1000 subjects) in the control group,”

I found the most worryingly results were deaths although these were played down.

“7.3.5. Deaths

In the analysis of all clinical studies in which Cervarix has been administered (up to the data lock-point of August 31, 2008), 37 subjects were reported with a fatal outcome:20 subjects of 31,472 subjects (0.64 per 1000 subjects) in the HPV group and 17 subjects of 23,700 subjects (0.72 per 1000 subjects) in the control group. The median interval between the date of last vaccination and the date of death was 1.5 years (range 30 days to 3.3 years). Of note, the mean duration of follow-up was 2.2 years in HPV group and 2.5 years in the control group.

A summary of the number of deaths by group classified by its underlying cause is presented in Table 34. All the atalities in vaccinated subjects occurred more than 1 month after the last study vaccine administration, with a median interval between the date of last vaccination and the date of death of 1.5 years (range 30 days to 3.3 years). Road traffic accidents (10 cases) and suicides (7 cases) were the most common underlying causes of death.

In the group that received Cervarix, the following case fatalities were reported:

Road traffic accidents (5 cases): with intervals ranging from 386 to 124 days from last vaccination to death,

Homicide (2 cases): with intervals of 217 days and 826 days from last vaccination to death,

Suicide (2 cases, one case reported as gun shot wound possibly related to suicide)with 148 and 686 days from last vaccination to death,

Neoplasms: gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (onset 151 days after last dose),ovarian cancer (onset 1,127 days after last dose) and cervical cancer (46 year old in Study HPV-015 with normal cytology at enrollment but HPV-18 DNA positive,developed metastatic cervical cancer 205 days after last dose; study population of HPV-015 mainly consists of healthy women but includes also a subset of women with previous history of HPV infection),

Autoimmune diseases (3 cases): systemic lupus rythematosus (SLE) with Candida sepsis (SLE pre-existing with renal complications 6 months after first dose leading to sepsis and eventually death 21 months after the first and only dose), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with pyoderma gangrenosum (IBD diagnosed 2 months after third dose with multiple complications and eventually a pyoderma gangrenosum with a fatal outcome 22 months after last dose) and Crohn´s disease with toxic megacolon and septic shock (Crohn´s disease diagnosed 16 months after second dose,complicated with toxic megacolon and septic shock with fatal outcome 17 months after the second and last dose),

Infectious diseases (3 cases): septicemia (onset 758 days after last dose), bacterial septicemia (onset 770 days after last dose) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome(onset 254 days after last dose),

Cardiovascular disorders (2 cases): vascular thromboembolism (onset 1167 days after last dose) and acute myocardial infarction (onset 485 days after last dose).

In the pooled controls group, the following case fatalities were reported:

Road traffic accidents (5 cases): with intervals ranging from 30 days to 862 days from last vaccination to death

Homicide: death 961 days after last dose

Suicide (5 cases): with 49 days to 817 days from last vaccination to death,

Neoplasms (2 cases): osteosarcoma (onset 165 days after last dose) and colon adenocarcinoma (onset 112 days after last dose)

Autoimmune diseases: insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus with diabetic ketoacidosis
(onset 154 days after last dose)

Infectious disease: septicemia (onset 650 days after last dose)

Unknown cause of death (2 cases): sudden death 67 days after last dose in a subject with medical history of valvulopathy and hepatopathy prior to vaccination and one case for which study staff read in a newspaper that the subject was found dead; as an autopsy report cannot be released until all forensic analyses are completed,insufficient documentation for a complete assessment of the diagnosis and the cause of death is available.

No safety signal has been identified based on medical review of these 37 individual case fatalities.”

Two ICAP members Freda Birrell Scotland, Grace Filby England have this week written letters and compiled documents all of which have been presented to both the Scottish and UK Government.

These documents have looked at in particular 10 girls who have been in the UK press recently because they have had an adverse reaction to Cervarix.

These are

Carley Steele Stockport Manchester

Rebecca Ramagge – Surrey

Paige Brennan – West Midlands

Ashleigh Cave – Liverpool

Hattie Vickery – Devon

Lauren Smith – Surrey, Sarah Chandler – Surrey, Leah Mann – Nottinghamshire

Debbie Jones ‘daughter’ – Orkney

Stacey Jones – West Midlands story not released as yet.

Another 2000 reports of adverse reactions have been received in the UK reported on MHRA website.”

There has only been one suspension of Cervarix so far, after a death occurred in the UK but it later emerged that the child was already ill and the death was not found to be due to the vaccine.

As problems mount for GSK we have to ask ourselves just how safe are the vaccines and medications that this company are producing. GSK not only face huge problems with their vaccines but they are also facing problems with their medications. Seroxat (Paxil) an antidepressant has been reported to have severe side effects for many years. The website Seroxat Sufferers Stand up and be Counted have been writing at length about this medication and reports that GSK go to lot of trouble to cover up the side effects that Seroxat/Paxil causes. Bob Fiddaman who runs the site reported that:-

“Later this year…or early next year, GlaxoSmithKline will be in the High Court in London, UK, defending a group action brought against them that claims that consumers had difficulty withdrawing from their product, Seroxat [known as Paxil in the US]”

As if things were not bad enough for GSK, today, reports flood in about another GSK disaster area, a drug called Avandia. Avandia is a drug for diabetes and has been reported to be causing heart problems in some patients. Avandia has been suspended in Saudi Arabia with the FDA in the USA partially suspending trials and India suspending trials.

Can we really trust this company or any other company manufacturing drugs and vaccines with our health? Only time will tell.

The Rockefellers manipulate America’s wealth through the Federal Reserve Bank. Are they manipulating your health through vaccines? You be the judge.

Part I | Part II

You’re sweating.

You anticipate the knock on the door. It could come at any moment now and your mind went blank. The doctor just left the room to get a vaccine for your child. Ringing in your ears were the final words he spoke while leaving, “Responsible parents vaccinate their children.”

Reservations are setting in. You remember a fellow mother who has an injured child following their vaccinations. “Will this vaccine harm my child?” you contemplate. Your family doesn’t get the flu vaccine because your family eats relatively healthfully. You are second-guessing yourself, justifying why you are at the doctor’s office. “But what about polio?” you say. You scan your brain quickly for an answer, “Vaccines eradicated polio, right?” Read on.

The year 1952 marked the worst polio epidemic in the United States – ever. Thousands of children and adults contracted paralytic polio that year. Many died. America demanded swift answers. In response to the outcry, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (NFIP) and March of Dimes launched a major public relations campaign. The answer was a vaccine.

There was a problem with the approach, though. The vaccine was touted as the only answer to the “childhood crippler”. Put into perspective, their stance did make logical sense. Many scientists had worked on a polio vaccine for more than fifteen years with no fruitful solution.

This is where our story begins.

Secret Revealed
The secret may surprise you. In fact, if my hunches are correct, simply reading this article may change your idea about vaccines for the rest of your life. Here’s why.

The most prominent public figures and scientists researching and developing the polio vaccine had one thing in common: The Rockefeller Institute. Before I tell you some of their names, it may be useful to know about the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank. Let me explain.

Many people understand the Rockefellers, along with corporate interests, manipulate the United States money supply through the private Federal Reserve Bank. The scam “The Fed” uses goes by many names: Fractional Reserve Banking, The Fiat Money System or Ponzi Scheme.

They print the money out of thin air that is then lent to banks on interest. The reason the scheme is so sinister is because there is no mathematical way to repay the loan. Some believe the Federal Reserve Bank scam is the Root Cause of our nation’s current financial ills.

Where’s the connection between the Rockefeller Family, Federal Reserve Bank, and the polio vaccine? As I noted above, the common thread of this concept is financial influence through Rockefeller coffers. This influence directly extends to the National Foundation of Infantile Paralysis.

In 1955 Time Magazine wrote of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis blowing the danger of polio out of proportion. But why would anyone blow out of proportion something as serious as polio? Here is a snippet from that article:

“All week the air was full of brickbats for Secretary Hobby and her department, although President Eisenhower defended her (see NATIONAL AFFAIRS). In retrospect, a good deal of the blame for the vaccine snafu also went to the National foundation (for Infantile Paralysis), which, with years of publicity, had built up the danger of polio out of all proportion to its actual incidence, and had rushed into vaccinations this year with patently insufficient preparation.” emphasis added

Medicine: Vaccine Snafu. Monday, May 30, 1955

http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,866421-2,00.html#ixzz0lwMucUsM

As a researcher I had to force myself to rethink the implications. I asked myself the question, “If the Rockefellers helped create the Federal Reserve Bank and now manipulate our wealth, are they doing the same through vaccines in order to manipulate our health?”

Delicious Poison
It’s a plausible question. In retrospect many health problems have been attributed to the polio vaccine. For example, the cancer-causing Simian Virus 40 (SV40), made in part from ground up monkey kidneys, contaminated the original polio vaccine. Moreover, the polio vaccine manufactured by Cutter Laboratories and Wyeth was actually causing paralysis!

Even the original cause of polio has been questioned. Documented evidence shows neurotoxic pesticides, such as DDT, sprayed on crops and livestock as a more likely cause of the polio epidemic. Even the vaccine literature states many things that could cause symptoms indistinguishable from polio. So where does knowing this information leave us?

There is enough information available to conclude that scientific discoveries financially supported by the Rockefellers are used for the purpose of social control. You’re going to discover one of the ways the Rockefeller Institute “stacked the deck” in their favor.

After this article, I provide a brief summary of major players on the polio scene. William Welch, Simon Flexner, Karl Landsteiner, Tom Rivers, Thomas Francis, Henry Kumm, Jonas Salk, Albert Sabin, Hilary Koprowski, and Oveta Culp Hobby were all tied to the Rockefellers in some fashion.

As you begin to consider the summaries as a whole, it will radically change your perspective on vaccines and their purpose. Finally, you will know the great depths of the Rockefeller Institution’s involvement pushing through a vaccine as the only answer to the false-flag polio epidemic.

“An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.” -Mahatma Gandhi

1. William Henry Welch
The Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research (RIMR) was created in 1901 through an endowment by the despised Oil Baron, John D. Rockefeller. William Welch was selected to serve as chairman of the advisory medical board of the RIMR. Several years later Welch also became a trustee to the Carnegie Institution in 1906 and chairman of the executive committee in 1909 making him the “…greatest Influential of medicine and biology and a leading figure in the physical sciences as well.” [1]

Susan and Archie with William Welch, looking at rabbits being used for poliomyelitis research, Summer 1887

Welch had an archived photo at the American Philosophical Society’s website, since taken down. The label appeared to infer Welch was involved in poliomyelitis research dating as early as 1887.

If this is the case, Welch was experimenting with polio twenty years prior to Simon Flexner officially doing so at the Rockefeller Institute. [2] The plausibility of Welch having such knowledge is likely because it was two years prior to his becoming “First Pathologist-in-Chief” at The Johns Hopkins Hospital. [3]

To top it off, Welch was a member of the Skull and Bones Fraternity [3] at Yale University and a member of the Board of Scientific Directors of the Eugenics Record Office (ERO). [4] John Rockefeller dutifully donated sums of $35 million and $65 million dollars respectively, the first two years of the ERO’s existence. [5]

2. Simon Flexner
William Henry Welch chose Simon Flexner, his favorite pupil, as director of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research. Flexner joined Welch as a trustee to the Carnegie Institution. [6]

Simon Flexner was able to adapt the polio virus to tissue in 1908, thus replicating the discoveries of Karl Landsteiner, the “discoverer of polio”. Historians note that research pertaining to poliomyelitis at the Rockefeller Institute required prior approval from Mr. Flexner himself.

On March 9, 1911, Simon Flexner defended animal tests performed for poliomyelitis research. He was quoted by The New York Times stating, “…we have learned where it [polio] resides, how the disease is spread, how the germ enters the body, the main sources from which infection is acquired, and the available means of combatting [sic] the disease.” However he lamented at the time, “… there is no specific remedy or cure.” [7]

Simon’s brother, Abraham, is best known as author of the notorious “Flexner Report” that closed over half of the medical schools in this country, which taught homeopathy.[8] Petro-chemically based remedies were selected as the new medicine of choice, and precipitated the current allopathic medical profession that promotes and administers vaccines. [9]

3. Karl Landsteiner
“[Landsteiner] also showed that the cause of poliomyelitis could be transmitted to monkeys by injecting into them material prepared by grinding up the spinal cords of children who had died from this disease, and, lacking in Vienna monkeys for further experiments, he went to the Pasteur Institute in Paris, where monkeys were available. His work there, together with that independently done by Flexner and Lewis, laid the foundations of our knowledge of the cause and immunology of poliomyelitis.” [10]

However, Karl Landsteiner is best known for discovering blood groups A, B, and O. Simon Flexner recruited Landsteiner for further research at the Rockefeller Institute.

4. Tom Rivers
Paul Offit writes in his book, The Cutter Incident, “[Tom Rivers] was head of the laboratory for the study of viral diseases at the Rockefeller Institute… By 1935 the Rockefeller Institute was the center for viral research in the United States. Almost everyone who trained in the field of virology trained in Thomas River’s laboratory.” [11]

Rivers helped develop the polio vaccine in addition to serving as chairman of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis Committee of Scientific Research. [12]

5. Thomas ‘Tommy’ Francis
Tom Francis graduated from Yale University in 1925. Shortly after graduation, he joined the Rockefeller Institute. It is cited in his biographical memoir that, “Among his prominent “private patients” were members of the Rockefeller family, and for a time he almost rated as their private physician.” [13]

Shortly after the end of World War II, Francis helped establish the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan. Jonas Salk, the creator of the Inactivated Polio Vaccine, learned from Francis how to formulate vaccines.

Francis would then be in charge of determining if the Salk vaccine was “safe and efficacious” during the polio vaccine trials. [14] 1,800,000 children participated in the “experiment,” and by Francis’ account, there were amazingly no adverse reactions. [15]

By today’s standard, Francis evaluating his student’s vaccine is a blatant and major conflict of interest. Why? If Salk’s vaccine proved to cause paralysis or cancer, which it did, it would reflect poorly upon Francis’ reputation.

Switching gears to an almost seemingly unrelated topic… Dr. Richard Shope of the Rockefeller University, and a good friend of Francis, discovered the Cottontail Rabbit Papilloma Virus (CRPV), which is better known as the Shope papilloma virus, a close cousin to the Human Papilloma Virus. [16]

To bring this discussion full circle to the polio vaccine, we look at a presentation given at the 1954 Third International Poliomyelitis Conference. In it, Nobel Prize winner John Enders demonstrated how the polio virus can be grown on Human Papilloma Cells “affectionately” known as HeLa cells. [17]

HeLa cells were mass produced by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis at the Tuskegee Institute and eventually contaminated cell lines used to produce the Salk vaccine. [18][19] This brings us back to Francis.

According to his memoir, “We (Peyton Rous and Thomas Francis) went to the library where he (Rous) told me they had just found that a number of rabbits they had kept for a long period after inoculation with the Shope papilloma had developed genuine cancers.” [20] emphasis added

*Note: Vaccine inserts clearly state vaccines are not tested for causing cancer (carcinogenesis).

6. Henry Kumm
Henry Kumm worked at the International Health Division of the Rockefeller Foundation for Medical Research in 1928. During the Second World War, Kumm experimented with larvicides containing DDT, a known neurotoxin often related to polio-like symptoms, to control the spread of malaria in Italy. [21] The pesticide DDT is often implicated as a likely cause of the polio epidemic in the 1950s.

As touched upon in the article, livestock and crops were heavily sprayed with DDT in the 1950s.

According to the Medical Archives at John Hopkins, “In 1951, he resigned from the Rockefeller Foundation to accept a position as assistant director of research at the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. He conducted field trials in the study of gamma globulin and the Salk vaccine and became the director of research in 1954. Rejoining the Rockefeller Foundation in 1959, Kumm retired as an associate professor in 1964.” [22]

7. Jonas Salk
Jonas Salk is best known for creating the Inactivated Polio Vaccine (IPV). Thomas Francis [see #5] was Salk’s mentor and trained Jonas on how to formulate vaccines. Salk tested the IPV on crippled and deformed children at the D.T. Watson Home for Crippled Children. This paved the way for larger trials. [23]

The larger vaccine trials were deemed a “success” by Thomas Francis after testing the vaccine on millions of school children. Afterward, Salk was proclaimed a National Hero through a carefully planned public relations campaign sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company, a research / pharmaceutical company founded in May 1876 by Colonel Eli Lilly.

Yet there were problems with the vaccine; they were causing polio. Salk’s scientific “arch nemesis”, Albert Sabin, called Salk’s IPV vaccine “dangerous” in congressional testimony as the vaccine was causing acute flaccid paralysis. [24]

Both Albert Sabin and Jonas Salk were members of the National Foundation of Infantile Paralysis Committee on Virus Research.

8. Albert Sabin
Albert went to work at the Rockefeller Institute from 1935 through 1939. Albert Sabin created the Oral Polio Vaccine, which was tested on over tens of millions in the USSR between 1955 through 1960 – the largest medical experiment in world history. [25] Albert also tested his vaccine on federal prisoners in Chillicothe, Ohio and on mentally “defective” children. [26]

In a cruel twist of irony, Sabin’s vaccine was causing paralysis; the very same thing he had criticized Jonas Salk’s vaccine of doing. [27]

The Sabin and Salk feud appears to be a false “left/right” paradigm solution as the vaccine schedule shifts from the Salk vaccine to the Sabin vaccine several times. Sabin served on the Scientific Board for the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.

One last interesting fact about Albert Sabin; is that his cousin was Saul Krugman. [29] Krugman developed the Hepatitis B vaccine by experimenting on children at the infamous Willowbrook State Institution.

According to Offit in the book The Cutter Incident, “In 1957 about sixty retarded children between three and ten years of age were fed hepatitis virus prepared from the feces of children known to have the disease (Hepatitis B), and Krugman watched during the next few weeks as they developed fever, nausea, vomiting, intolerance to food, jaundice (a yellowing of the skin and eyes), and liver damage.” [30]

9. Hilary Koprowski
Hilary Koprowski, Polish-born virologist, found work with the Rockefeller Foundation in Rio de Janeiro researching yellow fever. After World War II, Koprowski worked for Lederle Laboratories where he was assigned to research the poliovirus. His boss at Lederle was Herald Cox who was also trained at the Rockefeller Institute. [31]

In 1950 Koprowski secretly tested his live-virus vaccine on special needs children at Letchworth Village, a place for the “epileptic and feeble-minded.” Oshinsky writes in Polio: An American Story, “Koprowski did not tell Herald Cox about the test… The reason, Koprowski later admitted, was the certainty of being turned down.” [32]

After testing the vaccine on children, Koprowski moved on to Africa to further test his polio vaccine. A strong correlation exists between the testing the Oral Polio Vaccine Koprowski developed and the appearance of HIV/AIDS in Africa. [33]

10. Oveta Culp Hobby
Mrs. Hobby was the first U.S. Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare from April 11, 1953 to 1955. Thomas Francis (see #5) announced the results of the “successful” polio vaccine field trial on April 12, 1955 at 2:45 PM, coincidentally the tenth anniversary of President Franklin Roosevelt’s death. Mrs. Hobby pressured the licensing advisory committee to review over two thousand pages of safety data in less than three hours. At 5:15 PM, Oveta Culp Hobby granted permission for the polio vaccine to be manufactured. [34]

The influence of her former top aide, Nelson A. Rockefeller, to make such a hasty decision is unknown.

All around the world stories are emerging where families unable to cope with the demands of autistic children, are killing them, in what many see as their only way out. Story after story mount up into a catalogue of state failures as more and more of these tragic cases come to light.

In the National Post article Mother admits to drowning autistic child | Posted Toronto… a Chinese mother states that she ‘hated autism’ after she felt driven to kill her daughter.

“I will feel regret for the rest of my life,” Peng said. “I miss my daughter every day. I still love my daughter. I hate autism.”

The New York Daily News reported only few days ago that a Bronx mum murdered her autistic son before committing suicide, her tragic suicide note describes a woman completely at her wits end:-

“The night before a Bronx mom killed her 12 year old autistic son and took her own life, she posted a heart-wrenching prayer on her blog saying her life was in God’s hands.”

“I sincerely repent of my sins, and receive Jesus as my personal savior,” Michaela Jackson wrote on It’s Mick’s World. “Now as your child, I turn my entire life over to you, Amen.”

In a suicide note she admitted that she was overwhelmed by the child.

Many of us may also remember the sad tale reported in the Blistree of the former pathologist Karen McCarron who was sentenced to 36 years in prison for the May 13th 2008 suffocation of her then 3-year-old daughter, Katherine “Katie” McCarron.

On January 17^th , McCarron was convicted of two counts of first-degree murder, one count of obstructing justice and one count of concealment of a homicidal death. A request for a new trial was denied and she will have to serve all of her sentence. She was also ordered to pay a $25,000 fine; she had faced 20 years and 110 years in prison. Katie McCarron was autistic; in a taped confession, McCarron said that she ‘wanted a life without autism.’

The question is just what is driving all these mothers to become so desperate they kill their children?

To find out the answer to this question we need to delve deeper and look at the increasing numbers of children being diagnosed as autistic and then look at the possible reasons behind this huge increase. Although more children are being diagnosed with autism, to find an exact figure of children that have autism is virtually impossible. Children numbering in the tens of thousands are never diagnosed. These are possibly children with ‘traits of autism’ as many medical professionals today tend to prefer to call it. This term is sometimes used if a child displays symptoms of autistic behaviours but does not fit the criteria for clinical autism.

Another reason for a non diagnoses is when a child displays autistic behaviours but has a collection of other disorders interweaving which goes to make their overall disability profile. One autism expert Lisa Blakemore-Brown has called this a ‘tapestry of disorders’. She believes that many children are not being diagnosed with autism because they have an overlap of symptoms from other disorders leading to confusion among professionals.

In her book ‘Reweaving the Autistic Tapestry’, in the chapter that she calls the ‘Failing Systems’. She writes:-

• Researchers and clinicians working exclusively in one or other field often fail to recognize the other condition as co-morbid; instead it will be more likely regarded as a differential diagnoses.
• The interwoven features which are common to many disorders can lead to professional confusion.
• Many health professionals work in specialist areas and this can lead to children receiving a single diagnoses or none at all and to later confusion if other professionals disagree with the original diagnoses or if the child has changed over time.
• Even if a diagnoses has been provided, many parents can find their child left out in the cold through differences of opinion or through funding authorities – education and social services – being unwilling to accept the specialist’s opinion, even in some cases thwarting and sabotaging their attempts to support the child.

Ms Blakemore-Brown is right of course and this may be why so many studies state differing figures in the incidence of autism. So the next question is why is this happening, why are so many children displaying such a complex blend of neurological symptoms.

In a recent paper Sorting out the spinning of autism: heavy metals and the question of incidence by Mary Catherine DeSoto* and Robert T. Hitlan the authors attempt to explain why they believe this happening.

The abstract to their paper explains their research.

“The reasons for the rise in autism prevalence are a subject of heated professional debate. Featuring a critical appraisal of some research used to question whether there is a rise in cases and if rising levels of autism are related to environmental exposure to toxins (Soden et al. 2007, Thompson et al. 2007, Barbaresi et al. 2009) we aim to evaluate the actual state of scientific knowledge. In addition, we surveyed the empirical research on the topic of autism and heavy metal toxins. Overall, the various causes that have led to the increase in autism diagnosis are likely multi-faceted, and understanding the causes is one of the most important health topics today. We argue that scientific research does not support rejecting the link between the neurodevelopmental disorder of autism and toxic exposures.”

The paper is long and complex. It argues that increasingly over the past decade, positions that deny a link to environmental toxins and autism are based on relatively weak science and are disregarding the bulk of scientific literature. The authors show how external toxins, particularly mercury, do play a large part in the rising incidence of autism. Although they do admit that genes also have a large part to play in whether the child subsequently becomes Autistic as a result. They feel that sometimes what they call ‘unconscious biases’ occur when examining results of studies and state:-

“For example, Paul Offit concludes that Thompson and others (2007) study “found no evidence of neurological problems in children exposed to mercury-containing vaccines” (Offit 2007, p. 1979). But is this really true? According to the article’s authors, they detected only a “few significant associations with exposure to mercury” (Thompson et al. 2007, p. 1281). Of some interest to the question of early exposure and autism, “Increasing mercury exposure (in the first month of life) was associated with poorer performance of a measure of speech articulation.” (Thompson et al. 2007, p. 1281), although this finding is in need of replication, it is of interest since poor articulation occurs in those with autism (Shriberg et al. 2001). Among boys, higher mercury exposure during the first month was associated with an increase in performance IQ. This is again interesting because children with autism are known for having an uneven IQ performance such that their performance IQ is often higher than their verbal IQ (Ehlers et al. 1997). To be sure, overall, the results are not overwhelming and the inclusion of so many measures (42 different outcomes) makes it plausible to write off the few significant results as chance occurrences.

But if the aim of the study was meant to see if thimerosal might relate to autism, future research may want to target specific measures based on the autism literature and make specific predictions. If the aim was to see if thimerosal relates to general cognitive skills, it would have been wise to select tests previously shown to relate to mercury exposure. For example, past research (Weil et al. 2005) has shown that higher blood levels of mercury are associated with lower scores on visual memory (not tested by Thompson et al. 2007). There is, in fact, a significant amount of literature on mercury and cognitive function for both young children (Lederman et al. 2008) and adults (Yokoo et al. 2003, Zachi et al. 2007). In general, higher levels of mercury are associated with reductions in certain psychomotor tests and prenatal exposure to mercury often results in reduced working memory in humans and in animals (Goulet et al. 2003). The most recent research suggests that prenatal exposure specifically affects a type of learning sometimes referred to as “perseveration” especially in reversal learning (such as the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task). It has been suggested that contradictory results (and even lack of results) might relate to whether an outcome taps this precise domain (see Newland et al. 2008 for a review).

This is the sort of bias, whether conscious or unconscious, that occurs. Because some of the authors of the Thompson study have publicly aligned with opposing a mercury-autism link (by taking consulting fees), they may be unconsciously more prone to review studies that support their view, less likely to review opposing viewpoints, and may eventually become unaware of relevant research (e.g., Newland et al. 2008). By using 42 measures and finding only a small handful of effects, it is easy to say the obtained relations are chance occurrences. Then, another scholar summarizes the study and slightly changes the results based on a world view that there is no effect of thimerosal, “found no evidence of neurological problems in children exposed to mercury containing vaccines” (Offit 2007, p. 1279). Then this assessment gets quoted by those who do not bother to look carefully at the original study, and scientific advancement becomes stifled.”

Looking at the situation logically, it is easy to see why the medical profession should feel the need to cover up and often bend the truth in their favour when studies prove overwhelmingly that mercury in vaccines is one of the main causes of the rise in the incidence in autism. Vaccines are big business, so why would a business person, which lets face it doctors are, admit to the world that they may have made a mistake? Doctors are no longer the caring profession they once were, they are now salesmen working for the drugs companies.

It is far easier to ignore the truth and rake in the profits.

Support and care for the families with an autistic child is a battle daily. Many parents of Autistic children are unable to cope with the demands that they face. Often parents feel isolated from friends and family who do not understand. With no one to understand, they feel pressured to take the only way they can see out of their situation.

If governments do not do more to support families in need, this growing problem will not go away.

In March 2010 it was reported From the New York Times that China had been selling ‘tainted vaccines’. These vaccines had not had adequate storage and yet were sold to the public of China, subsequently allowing the vaccines to be administered to children. As a result, as many as eighty children suffered severe reactions, with four of these children, reported to have died.

According to the report in the New York Times the vaccines had been stored in a warm room without any air conditioning. Mr Chen, who worked for the medical center where these vaccines were sold, was reported to have said that he had complained at least 30 times, He said:-

“I saw boxes and boxes of vaccines piled up high like a hill in a hot room without air-conditioning,” he said. “Over the course of two years, I complained more than 30 times to the center’s leaders that these vaccines were no longer effective.”

Xinhua a Chinese newspaper reported

“BEIJING, March 17 (Xinhua) — China’s Ministry of Health (MOH) has launched an investigation into a report that defective vaccines had killed or sickened almost 80 children in north China’s Shanxi Province, said a statement on the ministry website Wednesday.

The ministry had asked the provincial health authorities to report abnormalities caused by the vaccines as soon as possible, the statement said.

Field investigations by reporters found that encephalitis, hepatitis B,rabies and other vaccines had killed four children and sickened at least 74, the China Economic Times newspaper reported Wednesday.”

On the 20^th July 2010 a report from China in ChinaGeeks translates reported that when the parents went to Beijing to try to get compensation for their children’s injuries, they found that the Ministry of Health had as much caring and compassion as a hungry ‘Stem Tiger’ after they were brutely beaten and slung into prison, where they were then denied medical care.One man was beaten so badly he sustained six broken ribs and a broken finger. Journalist C Cluster reported on the story-

“Tainted Vaccine “Protesters” Beaten, Bones Fractured

By C. Custer

Yet another depressing moment in the saga of the families who came to Beijing looking for compensation from the Ministry of Health after their children where harmed by tainted vaccines. Shortly after their first protest, Wang reported via his blog, they were arrested, but were subsequently released and apparently went to protest again yesterday. The results were more dire this time:

“When the nine parents of tainted vaccine victims were outside the Ministry of Health appealing for an audience with higher-ups on the morning of the 19th, they were beaten quite severely by a group of people wearing the uniforms of the Public Security Bureau. Of the nine, four suffered serious injury, and Yang Yukui of Liaoning province suffered six fractured ribs on his right side and a fractured little finger on his right hand.

The parents were chained together to prevent being dragged off separately, which made it impossible for them to flee their attackers. After being beaten, the group was locked away and at present has not been allowed to seek medical treatment:”

This is totally barbaric, haven’t these parents suffered enough?

However, unfortunately this is not the first time that parents of vaccine injured children have been treated in this way. In 2006 the story of Gao Zhanghong hit the headlines, he too had been treated in this way. In May this year ChinaGeeks Translates told his story arrest of Gao Zhanghong . Gao was a father of a boy who also fell victim to tainted vaccines back in 2006. This resulted in his son having learning difficulties which seriously impaired his ability to learn. Gao had hoped that his younger son may be able to care for his brother when he was older, sadly this was not going to be a possibility because his younger son then became a victim of the Sanlu milk powder scandal . Gao was also arrested, however, ChinaGeeks report that it was not clear from the circumstances to exactly how Gao’s arrest related to the vaccine and melamine issues.

It seems that the Chinese government care very little about their people. They carry on selling contaminated vaccines and other products in the full knowledge that if a parent complains, they can use violence or prison as a deterrent.

This of course is what is known as a civilized society! In my opinion it could be seen to be Totalitarianism.

In Perth this week, parents have been asked to volunteer their children between the ages of six months and two years, for participation in a vaccine trial.

In their report Vaccine trial targets kids ABC News explains that parents are being asked to register their children for a worldwide vaccine trial aimed at preventing a common cause of chest infections. These children will receive three doses of a vaccine for bronchiolitis, through nasal drops and will require a follow up blood test.

Dr Peter Richmond who heads up the ‘Vaccine Trials Group’ and is the main media spokesperson for VTG studies that are testing the vaccine in Perth, says that they are looking for healthy children for the trial.

“It’s really important that we’re able to develop vaccines that can prevent these serious infections in young children and keep them as healthy as possible and out of hospital.“

However, should parents ever be asked to use their ‘healthy children’ as drug company lab rats? Using children in experiments is highly dangerous, especially as the group of children required for this experiment are in a crucial stage of their development. If this vaccine has not been tested, how can VTG be sure that their vaccine will not interact with other vaccines that these children will have already had? According to vaccine schedule, children have already had around 18 vaccines by the age of two, some of these vaccines such as the DTaP and the MMR are triple vaccines.

Immunization Schedule In The USA

If we add another three doses of an untested vaccine, to the cocktail of adjuvants and chemicals that these children have already been subjected to, we could be adding the flame needed to ignite an already ticking time bomb.

We need to consider the fact that vaccines are drugs and to indicate just how dangerous drug trials can be, I would like to reference one drugs trial that went horribly wrong in the UK.

Fiona Macrea of the Daily Mail took up the story at the time in her article Elephant Man drug trial victims ‘injected too quickly’ | Mail Online

“The six young men – all fit and healthy before signing up for the March trial at Northwick Park Hospital in North-West London – suffered a host of side-effects, including pain, vomiting and organ failure.

Bar manager Mohamed ‘Nino’ Abdelhady, 28, was described as ‘the Elephant Man’ by his partner Myfanwy Marshall after his head swelled up.

Trainee plumber Ryan Wilson, 20, suffered heart, kidney and liver failure, pneumonia and blood poisoning and was in a coma for three weeks.
While in the coma, he suffered a frostbite-like reaction and has since lost parts of his fingers and had his toes amputated.”

In another report Drug-test victim’s ‘hell’ | The Sun |Newsone victim described his ordeal:-

“Then somehow the pain got even worse with the pressure in my head so intense it was like a truck had been parked on it.

“It felt like a terrible nightmare. I was aware of nothing around me just the pressure growing stronger and stronger in my skull.

“The nurses tried to calm me but suddenly the pain shot from my head to my spine as though the truck had been moved to my back.

“This felt even worse than before and I was conscious of bucking and writhing in the bed as they tried to get an oxygen mask on me.

“I started to think that these people were killing me and that I was going to die in this terrible place.

“As the mask was put on my face I felt that I couldn’t breathe and begged the doctors, Please, please let me out of here. I don’t want the money any more I just want to be free.’

“The agony didn’t end until I felt a needle go into my left arm with what must have been a sedative.

“Moments later I fell unconscious but it was only the start of the most terrifying hours of my life.”

The volunteers used in this trial, were consenting adults who made an informed decision to take part in this trial. They signed consent forms and knew of the risks. The babies to be used in the forthcoming vaccine trials will not be allowed this luxury but it is the babies themselves that may have to live with lifelong disabilities if this trial goes horribly wrong.

I would urge any parent to think very carefully before considering putting their baby forward for any drug or vaccine trial however tempting it may be, things can and do go wrong.
