UK Government Hands Drug Industry Control of Childhood Vaccination

[Guest guest]

I came across this little gem, they kept that quiet, sorry if its already been

mentioned on here.

This legislation could be used to forcibly vaccinate people in the event of a

pandemic!

UK press reports today show UK's New Labour Government appears to have placed

control of UK vaccination programmes from 1 April 2009 in practical effect into

the hands of the drug industry and introduced what is potentially a compulsory

vaccination law without Parliamentary debate under The Health Protection

(Vaccination) Regulations 2009.

Giving the JCVI control over vaccination policy appears little different to

giving control directly to the drug industry because of a closely similar

approach and in some cases interests of one too many JCVI members. The JCVI is

drawn from the British Medical professions and includes members with drug

industry financial conflicts of interest [Declarations of Interests] and an

historically poor record to the present day on vaccination and child health

safety [revealed in Freedom of Information documentation - more below].

The new law, introduced in a manner which raises doubts as to its legal and

constitutional validity, will mean that when the drug industry produces a

vaccine for adults or children, the Secretary of State is obliged to implement

whatever recommendation the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation

makes.

This new law puts the unpaid JCVI members in a powerful financial position for

the drug industry, with the power to decide adult and childhood vaccinations.

And if the JCVI decides unvaccinated children should not attend school, as is

the position in the USA, that could see compulsory UK childhood vaccination by

the " backdoor " .

Contradicting Department of Health claims the JCVI is independently appointed,

the JCVI is appointed by an appointments commission under DoH control [more

below].

The approach of several JCVI members and other health officials has been shown

to be inappropriate and over-zealous, as demonstrated in UK legal proceedings

seeking to have children vaccinated against parents' wishes and when not in the

children's and family's best interests [more below].

GPs, practice and clinic nurses could be in a difficult position ethically and

legally in their relationships with parents and particularly in relation to

those vaccinations currently recommended by the JCVI which are recognised not to

be clinically necessary, whilst exposing young children to risks of adverse

vaccine reactions which are also not being properly monitored by health

officials. Mumps, rubella, chickenpox, `flu and Hepatitis B vaccines are

examples of vaccinations recognised not to be clinically necessary for children

whilst being recommended or under consideration for recommendation by the JCVI.
