It was nauseating to watch the constant media coverage of this story

yesterday. I saw the story run on various news channels throughout

the day.

In the morning, the shot was being recommended for 11- 13 year olds.

Near days end, it was reportedly recommended for 8-9 year olds.

By the end of the week, it'll be on the AAP's list of recommended

vaccines for newborns.

Watch!

All that needs to happen is the director at HHS has to declare an epidemic. Incredulously, Leavitt has already declared bird flu an epidemic meaning that the certainly experimental vaccine will have full liability immunity. What's even more amazing is the entire Senate knew Frist added the rider to the defense conference report. They actually knew there was absolutely NO COMPENSATION plan on it and still voted to approve it.

Our old friend Lieberman beat his chest for being able to stop artic oil drilling, but he and everybody else ignored the Frist rider. His health advisor pointed out when the anthrax scare came around Bayer provided Congress with a million doses of Cipro. Since many people took the drug they've developed lots of health problems directly related to it. There are supposed to be a few million dollars worth of lawsuits pending.

Bayer took advantage of the moment and Cipro became the most famous drug on the planet as a result. You can't measure the amount of FREE advertising they got in exchange for the freebie. The question that Lieberman's health advisor couldn't answer is why should the law be any different if Cipro sterilizes people's guts on a Tuesday or during a bioterror incident?

Of course, we know that the actual anthrax scare was an inside job with the pathogens directly traced to a US Army germ warfare lab in Iowa. Hey didn't Judith release a bioterrorism book called "Germ" right before the anthrax scare? Hey wasn't that Judith that got a hoax letter during the anthrax scare? The same Judith that was spotted running around in the Iraqi desert leading an Army A-team on a wild goose chase for WMD? The same Judith that committed an act of treason by blabbing the name of a CIA operative? The same Judith that drew comparisons to the "runaway bride" Wilbanks as she sat around in jail waiting for the right person to file a release?

RERe: Merck drug generates pre-release controversy

In my conspiracy frame of mind ;), I imagine that all of these girls get the shot starting this fall at the same time the bird flu crosses into Alaska (CNN reports that the scientists are testing migratory birds), unlike what the article states (that girls have responsive immune systems), these girls will might actually have suppressed immune systems from the impending bird flu. Or the other scenario I see, is that these girls (like our autistic sons and daughters) may have a toxic overload from the new shot and become a new form of autism. The article here already states that they do not know the long term effects; therefore, once again, the medically establishment gets to experiment on children while they pocket the wealth. I sure would like to hear more from the doctors who have reservations about this new vaccine.

Merck drug generates pre-release controversy

By SHAWN RHEACourier-Post Staff

While some physicians hail Merck and Co.'s Gardasil, a vaccine that could prevent up to 70 percent of cervical cancer cases by blocking strains of the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus, others admit concern over a recommendation that the three-shot series be given to preteen, nonsexually active girls.

"Some parents already have concerns about the safety of vaccines in general, so asking them to vaccinate their daughters against an STD when they aren't even sexually active is controversial," said Dr. Rottman, an obstetrician-gynecologist at UMDNJ's School of Osteopathic Medicine in Stratford.

Though Merck's 10-year study of 27,000 clinical trial patients found Gardasil provided 100 percent protection against cervical cancer-causing strains of HPV in properly vaccinated patients, the trial didn't determine how long the inoculation lasts or whether booster shots would be needed to continue protection. In addition, the vaccine was tested only in women 16 to 26 years old.

A Food and Drug Administration advisory committee endorsed Gardasil on Thursday. In a unanimous vote the 13-member committee recommended the FDA approve use of the vaccine in 11- and 12-year-old girls, who typically have more responsive immune systems.

"The questions that politicians and health care providers will be batting around now is who gets it, when do they get it and should we be screening for HPV before giving the vaccine," said Rottman.

Physicians like Dr. s, an OB-GYN and medical director of Planned Parenthood of Southern New Jersey's Camden clinic, said parents of young girls should give serious consideration to the vaccine's potential to save lives.

"There are more than 10,000 cases of cervical cancer each year in the U.S., and close to 4,000 die," he explained. "True, we don't know the long-term effects, but if we can trust the FDA trials, (the vaccine) seems to have little side effects."

But while OB-GYNs typically address sexual activity issues among young women, it will most likely be pediatricians and family doctors who will be administering the HPV vaccine should it be approved. An FDA decision is expected June 8.

While some physicians expressed trepidation over recommending the vaccine, UMDNJ-SOM pediatrician Dr. Kaari believes its availability could be beneficial.

"It's a difficult situation for parents to think of their children involved in sexual activity and take precautions to prevent (a future) STD," Kaari admitted. "But what parents have to look at is that the age of children becoming sexually active is becoming younger and younger."Reach Rhea at (856) 486-2475 or srhea@...Published: May 20. 2006 3:10AM

Speaking of the bird flu. Since Congress gave them $7.1 billion dollars the CDC head said that "yeah, it's a problem if you're a bird".

All that needs to happen is the director at HHS has to declare an epidemic. Incredulously, Leavitt has already declared bird flu an epidemic meaning that the certainly experimental vaccine will have full liability immunity. What's even more amazing is the entire Senate knew Frist added the rider to the defense conference report. They actually knew there was absolutely NO COMPENSATION plan on it and still voted to approve it.

Our old friend Lieberman beat his chest for being able to stop artic oil drilling, but he and everybody else ignored the Frist rider. His health advisor pointed out when the anthrax scare came around Bayer provided Congress with a million doses of Cipro. Since many people took the drug they've developed lots of health problems directly related to it. There are supposed to be a few million dollars worth of lawsuits pending.

Bayer took advantage of the moment and Cipro became the most famous drug on the planet as a result. You can't measure the amount of FREE advertising they got in exchange for the freebie. The question that Lieberman's health advisor couldn't answer is why should the law be any different if Cipro sterilizes people's guts on a Tuesday or during a bioterror incident?

Of course, we know that the actual anthrax scare was an inside job with the pathogens directly traced to a US Army germ warfare lab in Iowa. Hey didn't Judith release a bioterrorism book called "Germ" right before the anthrax scare? Hey wasn't that Judith that got a hoax letter during the anthrax scare? The same Judith that was spotted running around in the Iraqi desert leading an Army A-team on a wild goose chase for WMD? The same Judith that committed an act of treason by blabbing the name of a CIA operative? The same Judith that drew comparisons to the "runaway bride" Wilbanks as she sat around in jail waiting for the right person to file a release?

RERe: Merck drug generates pre-release controversy

In my conspiracy frame of mind ;), I imagine that all of these girls get the shot starting this fall at the same time the bird flu crosses into Alaska (CNN reports that the scientists are testing migratory birds), unlike what the article states (that girls have responsive immune systems), these girls will might actually have suppressed immune systems from the impending bird flu. Or the other scenario I see, is that these girls (like our autistic sons and daughters) may have a toxic overload from the new shot and become a new form of autism. The article here already states that they do not know the long term effects; therefore, once again, the medically establishment gets to experiment on children while they pocket the wealth. I sure would like to hear more from the doctors who have reservations about this new vaccine.

> Leavitt has already declared bird flu an epidemic

There was a news report from February stating that Leavitt expected to

declare bird flu pandemic under the new law, but as far as I know he

has not officially done so yet.

Do you mean he has described it as an epidemic, so he will likely

invoke the " pandemic countermeasure " provisions of the " Public

Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act " . If Leavitt had already done

so I thought we would have heard something about it.

Anything specific that you heard or read?

Rumsfeld's growing stake in TamifluDefense Secretary, ex-chairman of flu treatment rights holder, sees portfolio value growing.October 31, 2005: 10:55 AM EST By D. Schwartz, Fortune senior writer

NEW YORK (Fortune) - The prospect of a bird flu outbreak may be panicking people around the globe, but it's proving to be very good news for Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and other politically connected investors in Gilead Sciences, the California biotech company that owns the rights to Tamiflu, the influenza remedy that's now the most-sought after drug in the world.

The worldwide call for a bird flu pandemic scare and Rumsfeld's subsequent personal gains are right in line with the White House's ideal interpretation of:

Under the law, manufacturers would receive the protection from lawsuits when the Secretary of Health and Human Services declares a particular disease as an "epidemic." Already HHS Secretary Mike Leavitt has used the word epidemic in relation to AIDS, obesity, diabetes and chronic diseases in general, potentially broadening the legal protections to many drugs now in existence or under development.

2:18 p.m. February 13, 2006

WASHINGTON – The government won't wait for bird flu to hit U.S. shores before granting liability protections to vaccine manufacturers and others that make products needed to battle a pandemic. Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt said Monday that the administration soon would enter into contracts for bird flu vaccine, rapid tests to detect the virus, and technology that would make available vaccine go farther.

“At some point in that process, we'll need to deal with the issue of liability,” he told reporters. In December, Congress gave Leavitt the authority to grant liability waivers if a public health emergency exists. Under the waivers, people injured by a vaccine against bird flu would have to prove willful misconduct to bring a claim for damages. Critics have said that such a high threshold would make it almost impossible for people injured by a drug to file a lawsuit. Leavitt said it's possible that vaccine manufacturers would want the extra protections before conducting clinical trials. “If you're a vaccine manufacturer, you're likely not going to want to move to that step unless you've got adequate liability protection.” he said.

The level of misdeeds and corruption at the upper levels of our government and the interplay between those upper levels of government, industry and the investment community is the most repugant form of illegal insider trading activity you can possibly imagine. The Y2K birdflu scam is just the latest. Especially when you consider who benefits from this "pandemic".

The pawns in this chess game:

the soldiers in Iraq;

the kids who get poisoned by the vaccines and other agents;

first responders;

numerous others who are essentially honest and believe much of the philosophy which has made this nation great- and act on it.

The reason why the government is critical to the business/investment communities is because they can force you to participate in the business scam to the benefit of the corporate benefactors.

The problem we have is that we simply do not know what information is reliable and who is double-dealing us and because there has been a concentration of business/information activity into only a few hands, that information has to be perceived as unreliable. We have experienced the dishonesty firsthand. But it is rampant in numerous other places.

The question becomes how much information we are getting is even reliable and whether we can trust the traditional groups we rely on to provide that information. Most of that information is boobbait for various groups having traditional beliefs, relatively low critical thought processes or simply people who wish to believe that their government is an honest broker. It is not.

We get manipulated by fear to further a belief set. It is the worst pathology imaginable. It is only our fault to the extent that we let this BS go on.

None of our government agencies are believed to be honest brokers anymore. and they are incapable of providing the necessary oversight required to provide honest information.

The term "government approved" becomes laughable.

We see it on this website. We see it virtually everywhere.

That is what this society perceives. It is not just in the vaccine/thimerosal/autism debte, but it is palpable just about everywhere.

That is why noone trusts the present administration.

This translates into numerous problems for the CDC/others in trying to push the vaccines and avoid the tsunami of informed consent.

That is how this debate resolves itself, at least with respect to future vaccination issues.

They must resolve the past as well- the damage they created.

Right, this is the same report I was thinking of - strongly indicates

that Leavitt will invoke the " pandemic countermeasure " provision of the

statute, but he has not yet done so. Will happen when the clinical

trials are going to begin - Leavitt almost has to do this to fulfill

government contracts with the vaccine manufacturers.

From the sound of it basically it's a vaccine manufacturers' call. Leavitt abdicated right away.
