Flu Vaccine Has Been Listed As A Category C Drug- Avoid esp if Pregnant

It Is Official, The Flu Vaccine Has Been Listed As A

Category C Drug!

That's Right, the American public are

being encouraged by the FDA and CDC to inject their tiny babies aged 2

months, with a vaccine, that has been identified as being listed as a

Category C drug.

....“The study investigated 90 approved drugs in the US (and let us make

no mistake vaccines are drugs! In fact, the flu vaccine is listed as a

Category C drug; which means there are no adequate safety studies to

determine whether flu vaccination adversely affects pregnant mothers

and their fetuses.) and discovered that 60 percent vaccination of the

900 papers were unpublished and some were concealed from the federal

regulatory agencies. Forty to sixty percent omitted clinical details

or changed their final their final analysis. Among the pharmaceutical

industry alone, 94 percent were unpublished and 86 percent of the

university studies sponsored by drug makers remained unpublished.â€

Other Category C drugs seen listed on Wikipedia include

Ketamine – a sedative

Camazepam

epam (Valium)

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) created the following rating

system in 1979 to categorize the potential risk to the fetus for a

given drug.

Category A: Controlled human studies have demonstrated no fetal risk

Category B Animal studies indicate no fetal risk, but no human

studies OR adverse effects in animals , but not in well- controlled

human studies

Category C: No adequate human or animal studies, OR [there have been

demonstrated] adverse fetal

effects in animal studies, but no available human data.

.....Merck is

also one of the companies that was found to be adding Mercury to their

flu vaccine as this article highlights Mercury in Flu shotsThe article reads:

“Without mercury, flu vaccines are less effective than one cup of

herbal tea. With mercury, the vaccine is very effective at killing

nerve cells and more effective than one cup of herbal tea in preventing

the flu. In fact almost as many vaccinated people get the flu as the

normal population….â€

“Mercury kills nerve cells. When the nerve cells in the brain are

die, the result is attention deficit, autism, behavioral disorders,

bipolar, brain tumors and cancer, decreased intelligence, hyperactivity

and memory problems. Flu doesn’t cause any of these things. Before

mercury was added to flu vaccines all of these conditions were very

rare….â€

.....An article Mercury Threat to Fetus Raised by Guy Gugliotta in the

Washington Post says:-

“A new government analysis nearly doubled the estimate of the number

of newborn children at risk for health problems because of unsafe

mercury levels in their blood. Environmental Protection Agency

scientists said yesterday that new research had shown that 630,000 U.S.

newborns had unsafe levels of mercury in their blood in 1999-2000.

The key factor in the revised estimates is research showing

differences in mercury levels in the blood of pregnant women and their

unborn children. In a Jan. 26 presentation at EPA’s National Forum on

Contaminants in Fish, in San Diego, EPA biochemist R. Mahaffey

said researchers in the last few years had shown that mercury levels

in a fetus’s umbilical cord blood are 70 percent higher than those in

the mother’s blood.

“We have long known that the effects of methyl mercury on the fetal

nervous system are more serious†than on adults, Mahaffey said in a

telephone interview yesterday. “But we did not routinely measure

[umbilical] cord blood. We had thought that the mother and the fetus had

the same level.â€

Jane Houlihan, a vice president of the

Environmental Working Group, noted that the study “for the first time .

. . calculated the number based on children’s blood levels, not

mothers’. The EPA analysis is showing that even if even if the mother

is below the danger zone, she can give birth to a baby that’s over the

limit.â€

Mercury, a heavy metal, is a highly toxic substance that can

seriously damage neurological tissue.

Poisoning can lead to learning disabilities, lower intelligence and

overall sluggishness. Fetuses, infants and young children are

especially vulnerable. Recent advisories from EPA and the Food and

Drug Administration have cautioned pregnant women on the dangers of

eating tuna and other large predatory fish and shellfish, whose

tissues absorb elevated levels of mercury.

.....Mahaffey, a top scientist in EPA’s Office of Prevention, Pesticides

and Toxic Substances, said she began developing her new estimates of

the number of infants at risk by studying research published last year

from New Jersey and Maine. The information helped her revise the

formula used to extract data from a survey conducted by the Centers for

Disease Control and Prevention in 1999-2000 on mercury levels in

pregnant women’s blood.

The new formula showed that one out of six pregnant women had mercury

levels in their blood of at least 3.5 parts per billion, sufficient

for levels in the fetus to reach or surpass the EPA’s safety threshold

of 5.8 parts per billion. In 1999-2000, the last year for which

government data are available, this meant that 630,000 children were at

risk instead of the original estimate of 320,000.â€

I have no idea if these results include the children whose mothers

were vaccinated with a flu vaccination during pregnancy but if not

these figures will be just the tip of a very big iceberg especially if

the USA Government gets it’s way and this vaccine becomes mandatory

for 2010.
