Giving CDC Dysfunction the “Dr. Phil” Treatment

by Hokkanen

For parents of children injured by vaccines, one logical followup to

McCarthy’s appearance on “Oprah” would be putting representatives from the

CDC on the Dr. Phil show.

Because, as Dr. Phil says, you can’t fix a problem if you don’t acknowledge

it first.

How can the CDC fine-tune the quality of vaccines if the agency doesn't

investigate parents' honest reports of their children's adverse reactions

to shots?

Here’s what happens instead:

• The busy family physician is unfamiliar with symptoms of vaccine injury,

or takes emotional and financial refuge in denial.

• The child’s injury report is rarely filed with the Vaccine Adverse Events

Reporting System (VAERS) and vulnerabilities are not studied -- other than

warnings for people allergic to eggs.

• A case filed with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program

(NVICP) takes 5-10 years to resolve, or more often than not is denied or

thrown out.

• The overwhelmed family struggles to find and fund biological treatments

that are not studied or acknowledged by traditional medical trade

organizations.

My mind can easily visualize Dr. Phil’s reflexive sneer and hear his

stentorian tone declaring, “That’s just plain wrong.”

Parent after parent tells a similar version of the same story. Their child

receives the MMR shot, or several shots together, or a mercury-laden dose,

and within hours or days that child’s spirit and health fade away. To most

researchers, these reports are considered empirical observations. To some

CDC bureaucrats and vaccine profiteers, these are dismissed pejoratively as

“anecdotes” or “stories.”

Here’s where I picture Dr. Phil popping in with an anecdote of his own. “So

you’re telling me that if I’m watching a storm outside and I see a tornado

and try to warn you that it’s coming your way, you aren’t going to believe

me?” He’d finish off with his trademark eye-roll of utter disgust.

Really, it’s not a huge stretch for the tall Texan to tackle the hypocrisy

surrounding vaccine injuries. Dr. Phil has a beautiful blonde

daughter-in-law, who like McCarthy is a former Playboy model. Should

she become pregnant, this public health issue would soon become very, very

personal… he’d “have a dog in the fight.” He has his crony Dr.

Lawliss on the show talking about children’s ADHD linked to heavy metals

toxicity.

For a moment, let’s strip away the emotional component that usually

overwhelms vaccine injury debate. Strictly from the perspective of a

capitalist marketing model, the CDC fails miserably. Textbooks teach that

the customer is always right. Negative feedback from dissatisfied customers

travels quickly and cuts sales. Any other product sold in America comes

with some kind of warranty, exchange or return policy.

Imagine bringing your car in for warranty work but instead the salesman

refuses. His inaction intimates that you are being untruthful. He states

cavalierly, “It’s not broken, it’s just quirky.” Or, “there is no increased

incidence of rollovers.”

If Dr. Phil ran the CDC, he would sympathize with parents and say, “You

need to listen to your body because your body is listening to you.”

But perversely, the CDC has no provision for medical treatment badly needed

by children injured by the vaccines it sells.

When Dick Cheney filled his friend’s face full of shotgun pellets, his

victim could reasonably expect that the shooter would foot the bill for

medical costs. But when our children are shot full of mercury, or receive

more shots of vaccine than their immune systems can handle, they are sent

home where panicked parents scavenge Internet information that may help, or

might harm the child further.

Thankfully a few bright healing lights have shone on families, independent

of taxpayer or pharmaceutical funding. For years the Autism Research

Institute (ARI) and National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) have sounded

the alarm about vaccine injury, though the powers that be refused to

listen. ARI and NVIC have provided information that has helped countless

families prevent further vaccine injury, and receive medical treatments to

mitigate the physical damage.

Local and national advocacy groups like ARI and NVIC should be formally

recognized as a national clearinghouse providing help that improves the

lives of ill children. Further, these organizations deserve federal funding

to improve the services they deliver with such success in absence of

current taxpayer-funded versions.

Picture for a moment a CDC bureaucrat sitting on Dr. Phil’s couch, and hear

his signature drawl as he starts the questioning:

“I’ve got a PhD, you know; I read peer-reviewed studies. I didn't just ride

in on a load of turnips.”

“So, when a parent comes to your agency and says that their child got sick

right after being vaccinated, you help them, right? After all, you’re the

Center for DISEASE CONTROL.”

“So what’s the CDC’s policy, anyway? You call that parent a liar, that’s

what you do. Well, how’s that workin’ for ya?”

Then Dr. Phil would flash his bullet-point suggestions for improvement on a

Jumbotron screen, because, as any regular viewer knows, awareness without

action is worthless.

• The child’s injury report is PROMPTLY filed with the Vaccine Adverse

Events Reporting System (VAERS).

• Children’s vaccine injuries are analyzed by independent research agencies

to detect genetic susceptibilities and thus prevent further injury.

• Cases filed with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP)

are settled promptly so families can fund early intervention.

• Families receive support services such as behavioral therapies,

therapeutic equipment, nutritional supplements and respite.

• The ACIP committee restructures the vaccine schedule with fewer vaccines

administered separately at a later age.

• Public health administrators with financial conflicts of interest are

removed from all vaccine policymaking institutions.

Across America, parents would jump out of their easy chairs cheering. This

would truly be a changing day in their lives… and in the lives of children

for generations to come. Let’s do it.

son, whose 2002 autism diagnosis spurred study of mercury toxicity and

Add to this--clinics are set up all across America to detoxify poisoned kids using the best protocol.

Also--independent testing labs are put in place to test all vaccines to make sure that they are safe, and contain what they say they do. Every ingredient is analyzed for necessity and safety, both alone and in combination with the rest of the ingredients. Long-term safety studies are done and verified by those without financial interests in the outcome.

Giving CDC Dysfunction the “Dr. Phil” Treatment

by Hokkanen

For parents of children injured by vaccines, one logical followup to

McCarthy’s appearance on “Oprah” would be putting

representatives from the

CDC on the Dr. Phil show.

Because, as Dr. Phil says, you can’t fix a problem if you don’t

acknowledge

it first.

How can the CDC fine-tune the quality of vaccines if the agency doesn't

investigate parents' honest reports of their children's adverse reactions

to shots?

Here’s what happens instead:

• The busy family physician is unfamiliar with symptoms of vaccine

injury,

or takes emotional and financial refuge in denial.

• The child’s injury report is rarely filed with the Vaccine

Adverse Events

Reporting System (VAERS) and vulnerabilities are not studied -- other than

warnings for people allergic to eggs.

• A case filed with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program

(NVICP) takes 5-10 years to resolve, or more often than not is denied or

thrown out.

• The overwhelmed family

struggles to find and fund biological treatments

that are not studied or acknowledged by traditional medical

trade

organizations.

My mind can easily visualize Dr. Phil’s reflexive sneer and hear his

stentorian tone declaring, “That’s just plain wrong.”

Parent after parent tells a similar version of the same

story. Their child

receives the MMR shot, or several shots together, or a mercury-laden

dose,

and within hours or days that child’s spirit and health fade away. To

most

researchers, these reports are considered empirical observations. To some

CDC bureaucrats and vaccine profiteers, these are dismissed pejoratively as

“anecdotes” or “stories.”

Here’s where I picture Dr. Phil popping in with an anecdote of his own.

“So

you’re telling me that if

I’m watching a storm outside and I see a tornado

and try to warn you that it’s coming your way, you aren’t going to

believe

me?” He’d finish off

with his trademark eye-roll of utter disgust.

Really, it’s not a huge stretch for the tall Texan to tackle the hypocrisy

surrounding vaccine injuries. Dr. Phil has a beautiful blonde

daughter-in-law, who like

McCarthy is a former Playboy model.

Should

she become pregnant, this public

health issue would soon become very,

very

personal… he’d “have a dog in the fight.” He has his

crony Dr.

Lawliss on the show talking about children’s ADHD linked to heavy metals

toxicity.

For a moment, let’s strip away

the emotional component that usually

overwhelms vaccine injury debate. Strictly from the perspective of a

capitalist marketing model, the CDC fails miserably. Textbooks teach that

the customer is always right.

Negative feedback from dissatisfied customers

travels quickly and cuts sales. Any other product sold in America

comes

with some kind of warranty, exchange

or return policy.

Imagine bringing your car in for warranty work but instead the salesman

refuses. His inaction intimates that you are being untruthful. He states

cavalierly, “It’s not broken, it’s just quirky.” Or,

“there is no increased

incidence of rollovers.”

If Dr. Phil ran the CDC, he would sympathize with parents and say, “You

need to listen to your body because your body is listening to you.”

But perversely, the CDC has no provision for medical

treatment badly needed

by children injured by the vaccines it sells.

When Dick Cheney filled his friend’s face full of shotgun pellets, his

victim could reasonably expect that the shooter would foot the bill for

medical costs. But when our children

are shot full of mercury, or receive

more shots of vaccine than their immune systems can handle, they are sent

home where panicked parents scavenge

Internet information that may help, or

might harm the child further.

Thankfully a few bright healing lights have shone on families, independent

the alarm about vaccine injury, though the powers that be refused to

current taxpayer-funded versions.

Picture for a moment a CDC

bureaucrat sitting on Dr. Phil’s couch, and hear

his signature drawl as he starts the questioning:

“I’ve got a PhD, you know; I read peer-reviewed studies. I didn't

just ride

in on a load of turnips.”

“So, when a parent comes to

right after being vaccinated, you help them, right? After all, you’re the

Center for DISEASE CONTROL.”

“So what’s the CDC’s policy, anyway? You call that parent a

liar, that’s

what you do. Well, how’s that workin’ for ya?”

Then Dr. Phil would flash his bullet-point suggestions for improvement on a

Jumbotron screen, because, as any regular viewer knows, awareness without

action is worthless.
