Stop the Lies. www.achamp.org What do you have to do to have a conflict-of-interest in the eyes of the American Academy of Pediatrics? Margararet Rennels, MD, the official AAP representative to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is also on or has been on the payroll of Merck, Merck Laboratories, Sanofi Aventis, Wyeth Vaccines, and GlaxoKline.

See the following for confirmation: http://www.idsociety.org/Template.cfm?Section=Home & CONTENTID=10156 & TEMPLATE=/Con\ tentManagement/ContentDisplay.cfm The ACIP is not some unimportant federal commission, and they are anything but " advisory " . This is the federal board that decides what is the " recommended schedule " of vaccines. Most states will adopt these recommendations without question and make them mandatory for children to attend school or daycare. In effect, the ACIP are the Federal Vaccine Commissars. And the truly frightening thing about this is that conflicts of these types are the norm on the ACIP. If a member of the Security and Exchange Commission had similar conflicts they would be guilty of a felony. In the world of public health it is a standard operating procedure. And who are they working for, our children's health or their employers bottom line? Here's more conflicts from the ACIP meeting minutes for February: Those reporting potential conflicts of interest were Dr. Greg Poland (grants from Chiron, VaxGen, and Merck Research Laboratories), Dr. Treanor (Wyeth, MedImmune), and Dr. Levin (clinical trials for GlaxoKline [GSK], Merck, and Merck’s DSMB). Check them out and others at: http://www.cdc.gov/nip/ACIP/minutes/acip-min-feb05.rtf Here's a synopsis of Rennels presentation: Vaccine Update: The Next 1000 Days S356 Monday, October 10, 2005 1:30 PM-3:30 PM The U.S. immunization program has been enormously successful in improving the health of infants, children and adolescents. The near future holds hope for the program to be raised to the next level with the possible addition of conjugated meningococcal, Tdap, rotavirus, MMRV and human papillomavirus vaccines to the childhood and adolescent immunization schedule. The objectives of this seminar are to review the current program, discuss vaccines and vaccine recommendations on the horizon, and outline major policy and service issues these changes will bring. The question is: Is there any relationship between a pediatrician and the vaccine manufacturers that would be perceived as a conflict-of-interest according to the prevailing ethics in the AAP? I think the answer is clear. This has got to stop. And only we can stop it. Come to Washington DC on Oct.7 and 8. Power of Parents Rally Stop the Mercury.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 : The situation is actually worse. Rennels is the chair of the AAP's Committee on Infectious Diseases. The AAP COID also determines the " routinely recommended vaccine " schedule. It is a joint effort with ACIP, AAP, and the American Acedemy of Family Physicians. The ACIP recommendations if accepted by CDC are the ones the government will pay for under the Vaccines for Children program and they are coverd under the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. AAP's recomendations are made to the member physicians of AAP who give vaccines that are not paid for by the govenment. The private market is about half the market and the government program is about half. Thus the AAP COID has as much influence as ACIP in determining what becomes " routine " . This makes Rennel's position - as chair of COID in addition to liaison to ACIP - more problematic. It's a governance issue that the AAP board should look at.
