INQUISITIONERS HAVE THEIR DAY

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, DO

February 14, 2010

NewsWithViews.com

I’ve been asked many times over the last few

weeks to share my opinion on the verdict of the U.K’s General Medical

Council (GMC) about Dr. Wakefield and the retraction of his 1998

article, “Ileal-lymphoid-nodular hyperplasia, non-specific colitis, and

pervasive developmental disorder in children” by the medical journal,

Lancet. The many inquiries fall into four basic questions, answered

below.

Question #1: What do you know about Dr. Wakefield’s 1998 paper? Do

you feel the response of the GMC was appropriate?

Answers:

1. Dr. Wakefield’s paper was SIMPLY a case study of 12 children.

Hundreds of case reports are published each year in the medical

journals….and are essentially ignored. He didn’t make *any claims* in his

original paper that has gotten all the attention.

2. His original paper was simply a hypothesis, not a

claim, of the connection to Autism. Be sure to read the original

paper; it’s only 5 pages long.

[1]

3. Wakefield published 32 peer-reviewed papers since 1998. NONE of

these were mentioned or retracted.

[2]

4. Wakefield’s most recent research incriminates the use of

hepatitis B vaccines in newborns. The first phase of this monkey study

was published three months ago in the journal Neurotoxicology,

focused on the first two weeks of life. Baby monkeys received a single

vaccine for Hepatitis B, mimicking the U.S. vaccine schedule, and were

compared with matched, unvaccinated monkeys. The vaccinated monkeys,

unlike their unvaccinated peers, suffered the loss of many reflexes

that are critical for survival. Discrediting Wakefield’s work over a

perceived “ethical” issue would serve to discredit this new research,

protecting the vaccine industry once again.

[3]

5. Dr. Wakefield’s research was never questioned by the GMC. The

ruling focused on what was called “unethical behavior” – drawing blood at

a children’s party, even though the parent’s who were present had given

their fully informed consent. In fact, in an open letter to the Lancet,

the parents of the 12

children in the study rebuke the GMC, politely calling them liars.

6. Dr. Wakefield has never been “anti-vaccine.” His work has

always been focused on finding an explanation for WHY so many autistic

children have terrible bowel disease.

7. Dr. Wakefield has always recommended single antigen vaccines.

He hypothesized that the three live viruses given together in the MMR

vaccine are the source of potential problems in at least SOME

children.

Question #2: Do you have concerns over Dr. Wakefield’s failure to

disclose financial links to a malpractice attorney and to patents he was

working on to develop a single vaccine solution?

Answers: I was rather surprised at the question and my response

is, no. I don’t feel one bit concerned about that particular issue. I’m

not even sure the accusation is 100 percent true; it could be simply a

pharma spin/smear. There is so much impropriety among the Players in the

vaccine business that any singular accusation about Dr. Wakefield’s work

toward developing a single-antigen vaccine to make things safer for

children TRULY amounts to “the pot calling the kettle black.”

Consider this:

1. Dr. Offit, who sat on the Advisory Committee of

Immunization Practices (ACIP) committee, the committee who approves all

the vaccines given to children and adults, holds the patent for the

Rotavirus vaccine, (the one that was withdrawn) AND a patent on the

current Rotavirus vaccine which is known to cause pneumonia and still

some cases of intussusception. It is rumored that he made millions on his

vaccine patent and that big pharma bought all his books, so he could make

millions more.

2. Dr. Sam Katz sat for year on the ACIP committee having

been the developer of the MMR vaccine (particularly the attenuated

measles vaccine). He simultaneously consulted with all of the

vaccine manufacturers.

3. Dr. D.A. , credited with

smallpox vaccine eradication, consulted simultaneously with all

the vaccine manufacturers for year.

4. Dr. Gerberding, after serving eight years as head of the

CDC, was recently named President of Merck vaccines. This is one of the

most visible and blatant examples of a gross conflict of interest. Just

barely past the 365 day mandatory “wait time” imposed on persons who pass

from public service into private sector jobs, she was welcomed with open

arms. Does anyone think she just might have insider

information to share with her new boss, and not just about vaccines?

Question #3: Do you think the Lancet was justified in pulling the

paper for pure scientific reasons?

Answer: It was inappropriate for the Lancet to retract his 1998

paper. What did it prove? By focusing on this paper with such fanfare,

the general public has been lead to believe that Wakefield’s 1998

Lancet paper, a case report, was the ONLY paper and the ONLY research

Wakefield has ever done. They sure paint it that way, don't they?

• NOT ONE mainstream reporter mentioned the 32 research papers

published in peer-reviewed journals since 1998.

• NOT ONE mainstream reporter interviewed Wakefield for

" balanced reporting. " What does that say about the story...and

the bought-and-owned, generally lazy press?

• AND NOT ONE mainstream reporter dared to report that Wakefield's

observation, finding vaccine-strain measles in the gut of *some* autistic

children, has been replicated by other researchers.

[4]

[5]

• NO ONE has been told about the science that has been published

supporting a connection between vaccines and autism and other disorders,

and yet the list grows every day. Researchers studying vaccine-related

illness have a hard task; their research is not funded by drug companies.

The drug companies and the government don't want to know the answers.

It is the same reason the CDC refuses do a study of vaccinated vs.

unvaccinated kids, examining something solidly objective like number of

drugs they are on, number of days of school missed due to illness and

number of doctor visits between birth and 5 years of age for ear

infections and asthma.

This “issue” with Dr. Wakefield is a pharma-driven, media-manipulated

power move, meant to embarrass Wakefield so they can negate and call into

question his new, incriminating research on the hepatitis B vaccine given

at birth. No doubt this " media frenzied heyday " has been

orchestrated to squash the efforts of the massively growing, Vaccine

Choice/Vaccine Awareness movement. The one-sided accusations in magazines

and blogs rambling on about the story even call the retraction, " a

blow to the anti-vaccine movement. "

Here's a common example: Just look at the title. This was published in

Popular Mechanics (a vaccine story in Popular Mechanics?)

[6]

At the end of the day, isn't that the point of all this

rhetoric? The truth about vaccine damage is gaining too much

attention. The masses are listening and questioning because they are

(rightfully) suspicious of government and they don't trust CDC, AAP, etc.

Vaccination rates are falling, parents are rebelling. They know that

something is amiss as they watch their children get sick, and even die,

right before their eyes.

Question #4: Are you simply a blinded, “Dr. Andy

Groupie”?

Answer: No, I am not. I clearly understand the reason why

this has happened. Could he have done things better? Probably. Could he

have been more forthcoming about certain events that he has been accused

of? Of course.

But consider other scandals that have emerged in the scientific world,

such as research that was published using fake stem-cell lines. These

studies used fabricated data and were published in prestigious journals.

Has anyone heard Hwang Woo-Suk or Jan Hendrik Schön? Those were the

researchers; they were not publicly crucified by the media.

I suspect that if any researcher's methods, associations and data

were scrutinized with a fine tooth comb like they have done for 12 YEARS

with Dr. Wakefield, the Lancet would be forced to retract many articles

-- maybe all of them. Looking at the Big Picture, one *has to see* that

the issue with Dr. Wakefield is a witch hunt with an agenda. When

the twisted associations of those who have been out to crucify Dr.

Wakefield are mapped out, it is plain that he had not a chance of

exoneration.

[7]

The Results of the Vaccine-Illness Connection

We have exchanged chicken pox for autism, flu for asthma, ear

infections for diabetes...and the list goes on and on. In the zeal to

eliminate relatively benign microbes, we have traded temporary illnesses

for pervasive, life-long diseases, disorders, dysfunctions and

disabilities. And all of the Powers That Be – doctors,

politicians, corporate heads, and government public health officials –

refuse to consider these expensive, pervasive diseases could be caused by

vaccines.

If we had an epidemic of blindness in 300,000 children, would doctors

ignore it and say, " We have no idea why it is happening. Guess we

need to train more seeing-eye dogs. " But we have an epidemic of sick

children losing their brains. Doctors shrug and say, " It must be

genetics.” This is the best they have to offer, despite scientific

confirmation that there is no such thing as a " genetic

epidemic. "

There are nearly 300,000 sets of parents with sick, autistic children;

the lion share of them saw it happen, with their own eyes, and rightfully

blame vaccines. These children are ill; and conventional doctors don't

even try to address their illnesses. When non-conventional practitioners

try to help, they are scoffed, ridiculed and even raided by the Feds.

[8]

There is one unifying factor affecting children, from sea to shining sea.

It’s not genetics; genetics between families are different. It’s not

environmental exposures; some kids live in the projects, some live in

gated communities. It’s not food; some kids eat only organic, some eat

mostly Mcs. It’s not exercise; some kids are athletes; others are

couch potatoes.

What touches almost all children and is the most likely ‘smoking gun’ for

the epidemic of chronic illness and autism across North America (and

beyond), are childhood vaccinations.

What is it going to take?

At the end of the day, it is going to take a tragedy in a high profile

doctor or politician for the VACCINE-ILLNESS CONNECTION (not just autism)

to get serious examination. I have a friend in Maine who is a

nephrologist. She consults on patients who need dialysis. Just by

asking the question, " When was your last vaccine?” she has found

nine patients – most with previously normal kidney function – who

developed acute renal failure within two to 28 days of the shot. All but

one needed kidney dialysis. All but two have recovered, but to the tune

of more than $200,000 in hospital bills -- EACH. We pay and pay

and pay for vaccines.

We pay drug companies to make them. We pay doctors and public health

officials to give them. We pay astronomical health insurance rates to

cover the health care costs of the illnesses they cause. Vaccines drive

the industry -- if only we were *willing* to look. WHAT other connections

are we missing because we don't want to know?

How conventional medicine can deny this is the real travesty. The Vaccine

Court (Federal Court of Claims) has awarded at least nine judgments in

favor of children who have become autistic or have had serious damage

from MMR vaccine. For heaven’s sake, aspirin, antibiotics, and many other

drugs can be (and often are) deadly. Why are vaccines always

considered to be harmless and their side effects a

coincidence?

Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis was a Hungarian physician who was among the

first to perceive that birth-related deaths due to puerperal fever was

caused by doctors who didn’t wash their hands before childbirth. He dared

collect and publish data which admonished his peers and indicted the

existing Medical System. Despite various publications that demonstrated

hand washing reduced birth mortality below one percent, Semmelweis’

practice was ignored by doctors because his observations were in

" conflict with established medical opinions. " Thousands of

children died as a result of the arrogance of doctors and their

unwillingness to change.

The tenacity of Semmelweis is a precedent for how Dr. Wakefield has been

treated by the GMC in the United Kingdom. Conventionally trained doctors

around the world have added thunderous applause, seemingly incapable of

questioning the lies they have been forced to swallow and have believed

for two centuries about vaccines.

The GMC, the press and the medical establishment have had their

Inquisition. But those of us who know the truth are not giving up. Like

Semmelweis, our research and evidence will eventually be proven correct.

We must continue; the lives – and brains – of the next generation of

children are at stake.
