Actual Photo Snapped By CVS Employee of Their Flu Shot Quota



So I happened to stumble upon this thread in a forum for student Dr.s and pharmacists. They were having a very candid conversation about their quotas from corporate for the flu shot. Needless to say I found it pretty disturbing and obviously telling as to what the motivation is from CVS, Walgreens, Safeway and every other retailer offering the flu shots this season. Which unfortunately doesn't exclude very many. I am looking into the FET tax credit and the EIS tax credit and seeing if it applies to any of these retailers for offering immunizations and hopefully I can get some answers from those avenues. The motivation could be that when they get the flu shot there, after they're pumped full of mercury and live viruses, that they will spend the 20 percent off that day like a good little sheep in the store and create revenue. It seems like a lot of work to drive up purchases but then again look at Black Friday and the items stores take losses on in order to get customers in the door. In the mean time...

Toxicity List of Side Effects from Vaccines, GIDEON 2015

10:41 AM Tiffany 0 Comments




GIDEON is the premier medical decision support web application and ebooks series covering infectious diseases and microbiology.


Below is a list of the most questioned toxic reactions from the use of vaccines and which vaccine causes them.


Toxicity is the degree to which a substance can damage an organism. Toxicity can refer to the effect on a whole organism, such as an animal, bacterium, or plant, as well as the effect on a substructure of the organism, such as a cell (cytotoxicity) or an organ such as the liver (hepatotoxicity).

Top Contraindications For Vaccines, GIDEON 2015

10:25 AM Tiffany 0 Comments



GIDEON is the premier medical decision support web application and ebooks series covering infectious diseases and microbiology.


Below are a list of the most questioned contraindications for the use of vaccines and whether or not it is safe during that particular time or medical diagnosis.  

contraindication is a specific situation in which a drug, procedure, or surgery should not be used because it may be harmful to the person. There are two types of contraindications: Relative contraindication means that caution should be used when two drugs or procedures are used together. These are the recommendations per the GIDEON for different scenarios and which vaccines to stay away from during that diagnosis or situation.

History of Injury Day 4, The 1942 Hepatitis Epidemic

9:33 AM Tiffany 0 Comments








More often than not vaccines are credited with preventing or countering huge deadly epidemics, saving millions of lives. The stories that we don't frequently hear are the ones where the vaccine was the cause of the epidemic.


People talk about the great hepatitis b and c outbreak of the 1940's. It was huge in scale, hundreds of thousands of people, mostly military personal infected with hepatitis b and c. Where did this epidemic stem from though, what was the root cause? Most people would be surprised (or maybe my readers wont be at all) that this epidemic was the direct result of the military testing of a yellow fever vaccine.  Army veterans given yellow fever vaccine contaminated with hepatitis B virus in 1942. 69,988 men were the subjects of the cohort study. Another epidemic of icteric hepatitis in 1942 affected approximately 50,000 Army personnel. The Spanish Influenza of 1918 killed 20 to 40 million people right after World War I. Incidentally, this war was the first war in which vaccines were mandatory for the military. Eleanora I. McBean M.D. gives a detailed account of what occurred during that time. She stated in her book entitled "Swine Flu Expose," that the vaccine developed to fight against the disease was, in fact, the cause of all of these deaths and not the supposed pandemic.


Dr. McBean said that after the War:
"I heard that seven men dropped dead in a doctor’s office after being vaccinated. This was in an army camp, so I wrote to the Government for verification. They sent me the report of U.S. Secretary of War, Henry L. Stimson.1..."
"This report not only verified the report of the seven who dropped dead from the vaccines, but it stated that there had been 63 deaths and 28,585 cases of hepatitis as a direct result of the yellow fever vaccine during only 6 months of the war. That was only one of the 14 to 25 shots given the soldiers." In later years, similar experiments were done: "The military disclosed evidence that it had released disease-causing germs in at least 48 open-air tests."
"In 1994, Senator John D. Rockefeller’s report (Examining Biological Experimentation on U.S. Military) further revealed that over the previous fifty years, the U.S. military intentionally exposed hundreds of thousands of their own soldiers to dangerous microbes, mustard and nerve gas, radiation, hallucinogens, and psycho-chemicals."

This outbreak was linked to specific lots of yellow-fever vaccine stabilized with human serum. Mortality of Korean War Veterans infected with Hepatitis C Virus. Approximately 100 veterans had been identified as Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infected by testing the serum specimens collected from approximately 9,500 military recruits during the period 1949 to 1954.

History of Injury, Day 3 Hannah Poling

1:02 PM Tiffany 1 Comments




Hannah Poling and her father, Jon.
Hannah Poling is indisputably the most famous case of the Autism and vaccine link to date. I personally have taken to this story because her condition relates so closely to my sons vaccine injury. Hannah's parents, Jon and Terry Poling, were also an interesting attribute to this case having careers as a Neurologist and Clinical Nurse (RN), respectively.

Hannah was born in 1999 and received five vaccines in one day in 2000 at the age of 19 months; this occurred because she had fallen behind on her vaccine schedule as a result of a series of ear infections. She became immediately ill and, within six months spiraled into the solitary world of autism, losing speech, social reciprocity and motor skills, and showing various hyper- and hypo- sensitivities. As Hannah’s father said at a March 6, 2008 press conference in Atlanta, six months after receiving 9 vaccines, “we knew Hannah’s beautiful inquisitive mind wasn’t coming back.” According to Kathleen Seidel, the Poling family filed a case with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program on October 25, 2002. In 2006, Jon, along with three other researchers, all of whom were affiliated with Johns Hopkins at the time, published a case report and chart review retrospective series regarding the association of mitochondrial disease and autism in the Journal of Child Neurology. In 2008, after the government conceded his daughter's vaccine injury case, Dr Poling said, “Many in the autism community and their champions believe that the result in this case may well signify a landmark decision as it pertains to children developing autism following vaccinations. This still remains to be seen, but currently there are almost 5,000 other cases pending.” Hannah's case had originally been placed with the almost 5,000 Autism Omnibus cases pending hearing 5 years before her case was conceded administratively. They were awarded a settlement of 1.5 million dollars for loss of wages, pain and suffering and cost of care through the VICP. Sharyl Attkisson reported on the Poling case for CBS News on March 6, 2008. She said, “While the Poling case is the first of its kind to become public, a CBS News investigation uncovered at least nine other cases as far back as 1990, where records show the court ordered the government to compensate families whose children developed autism or autistic-like symptoms in children, including toddlers, who had been called ‘very smart’ and ‘impressed’ doctors with their ‘intelligence and curiosity’ … until their vaccinations. They were children just like Hannah Poling.” After the Polings took their story public, a firestorm of media attention was ignited giving new attention to the long standing debate about whether or not vaccines cause neurological disorders in children.

Settlement in the Hannah Poling vaccine injury case with the VICP

Julie Gerberding, head of the CDC at the time said,

"Let me be very clear that the government has made absolutely no statement indicating that vaccines are a cause of autism. It has also been noted that Hannah's mitochondrial disease is very rare, and that no evidence proves that it is possible for vaccines to cause or worsen mitochondrial diseases, with Chuck Mohan of the United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation noting that "there is very little scientific research in this area."
Contradicting this statement in an interview with Dr. Sanjay Gupta on CNN, she says the following;

"Well, you know, I don't have all the facts because I still haven't been able to review the case files myself. But my understanding is that the child has a -- what we think is a rare mitochondrial disorder. And children that have this disease, anything that stresses them creates a situation where their cells just can't make enough energy to keep their brains functioning normally. Now, we all know that vaccines can occasionally cause fevers in kids. So if a child was immunized, got a fever, had other complications from the vaccines. And if you're predisposed with the mitochondrial disorder, it can certainly set off some damage. Some of the symptoms can be symptoms that have characteristics of autism." She went on to admit, "What we can say absolutely for sure is that we don't really understand the causes of autism. We've got a long way to go before we get to the bottom of this. But there have been at least 15 very good scientific studies on the Institute of Medicine who have searched this out. And they have concluded that there really is no association between vaccines and autism. Well, I'll never be comfortable with everything we know. I mean, I think we have to have an open mind about this. We know that there's very little chance that it's something related to a vaccine that's going to cause a serious problem for a child. We also know how life saving vaccines really are. Well, one thing that I remember is that the government is actually composed of moms and dads. And there are a lot of moms and dads at CDC who look at this the same way. Many of the people in our immunization program are parents of young children. So they understand the dilemma that a parent feels. But it's kind of our job to do the science to help clarify and separate concern from scientific fact. Autism is a huge challenge. And it is much more common than I think anyone realized. And we aren't doing enough. And we need to do more."

Julie Gerberding was asked to resign from her position at the CDC by the Obama administration in 2008 and in 2009 exactly 1 yr and 3 days later (the statue of time that anyone in an official capacity employed by a government agency, that has to pass before they can work for a government vendor). She went to work for Merck, as the president of Merck’s vaccine unit. Merck makes 14 of the 17 vaccines the CDC recommends for children, and nine of the 10 recommended for adults.



Since the Poling case drew so much questioning and criticism to the issue, the CDC and vaccine manufactures alike have taken great precaution to avoid any type of data and or mentioning of Autism as being a toxic effect from vaccines. Even though it was listed on vaccine inserts in the past.
DTaP Package insert which has since been changed to omit Autism and SID as a known side effect of the vaccine.

We Have Rights That Supercede State Laws!

We Have Rights That Supercedes State Laws!

http://law.justia.com/constitution/us/047-state-laws-held-unconstitutional.html

Our 14th amendment clearly states in section one:

No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

486. Brown v. Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483 (1954).
Kansas statutory provisions that authorized segregation of white and Negro children in "separate but equal" public schools denies to such Negro children the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment.

487. Accord: Briggs v. Elliott, 347 U.S. 483 (1954).

South Carolina constitutional and statutory provisions requiring segregation of white and Negro students in public schools violate the Fourteenth Amendment.

488. Accord: Davis v. County School Bd., 347 U.S. 483 (1954).

Virginia constitutional and statutory provisions requiring segregation of white and Negro students in public schools violate the Fourteenth Amendment.

489. Accord: Gebhart v. Belton, 347 U.S. 483 (1954).

Delaware constitutional and statutory provisions requiring segregation of white and Negro students in public schools violate the Fourteenth Amendment.

We need to flex our rights as citizens of the United States and residents of the State of California, this law is unconstitutional. Plain and simple. SB277 seeks to mandate the routine immunization schedule recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for anyone seeking to attend a public or private school in California, the CDC should be legally considered to be part of the state. CDC’s conduct therefore reflects on the constitutionality of SB277, or rather its lack of constitutionality.



CDC has proven its lack of integrity on vaccine safety issues, having concealed proof of harm from mercury in vaccines. CDC’s top immunization official has lied to Congress, and the CDC has covered up evidence linking autism to the measles, mumps, rubella vaccine among other vaccine dangers according to a senior CDC scientist. They have also proven a conflict of interest in their recommendations for vaccinations by their deeply rooted financial ties and even ownership of these vaccines.

History of Injury Day 2, Jacobson v. Massachusetts

2:35 PM Anonymous 0 Comments


So for day two of History of Injury, I'm going to take a look at the most prolific mandated vaccine court case in vaccine history....dated 1905. This case is cited STILL 110 years after the fact in decisions made by the federal and state judicial branches in regards to vaccines and civil liberties. Most recently the case in New York (Phillips vs. New York 1/2015) where 3 families fought for their right to choose and didn't even make it past the claim process, it was dismissed based on cites from this original case as many are. If we move forward with any civil action, we need to know the details of Jacobson vs. Massachusetts liken the back of our hands!

Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court upheld the authority of states to enforce compulsory vaccination laws. The Court's decision articulated the view that the freedom of the individual must sometimes be subordinated to the common welfare and is subject to the police power of the state.

Henning Jacobson, a Swedish immigrant to the United States and a minister, lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts. During an outbreak of smallpox in 1902, he refused to comply with the town's order for all adults to be vaccinated. He claimed a vaccine had made him seriously ill as a child and had made his son and others sick as well.


The Supreme Court reaffirmed its decision in Jacobson in Zucht v. King (1922), which held that a school system could refuse admission to a student who failed to receive a required vaccination.

One analysis of the decision in Jacobson called it "a foundational public health law case" but also said that "It addressed issues about medicine, disease, and society that are no longer relevant today", because protection against airborne diseases like smallpox requires a different response from public health authorities than the diseases communicated by intimate contact for which vaccines are being developed in the late 20th and 21st centuries such as the HPV vaccine.

Vaccine Injury Awareness Month, History of Injury

8:39 AM Anonymous 0 Comments



In honor of Vaccine Injury Awareness month I'm going to do one post a day on the history of vaccine injuries that will outline some of the most notable and unfortunately tragic vaccine injuries throughout time. This isn't a new problem, as I'm sure you are all aware. These injuries were unnecessary and have not been a pawn for the betterment of over all public safety. Infectious diease is combative via nutrition, improvements in sanitation and personal care and mainly through the antibodies our own immune systems develop naturally and then pass to our children.

So for day one I'm going to start with the most notable vaccine injury diaster of early vaccinations. The Cutter Incident.


The Cutter disaster was completely unnecessary which is what Dr Offit will never tell you in his widely spread account of this tragedy in the book, The Cutter Incident. Polio is/was a man made disease, from DDT which got into the milk supply or circulating in the air from crop spraying (as shown by researchers: Jim West, Ralph R. Scobey, M.D., and Morton S. Biskind, M.D.) and medical injections such as antibiotics and vaccines themselves. Yes, vaccines were and are a major cause of polio!

"The vaccination programs are irrelevant to the decline of polio, while pesticides correlate perfectly with polio. The unfunded, ostracized theory of poison causality far exceeds all other theories in simplicity, exactitude, and directness regarding correlations within all data areas: dosage, physiology, etiology, epidemiology, economics, and politics."--Jim West

The NIH Laboratory of Biologics Control, which had certified the Cutter polio vaccine, had received advance warnings of problems: in 1954, staff member Dr. Bernice Eddy had reported to her superiors that some inoculated monkeys had become paralyzed (pictures were sent as well). William Sebrell, the director of NIH wouldn't hear of such a thing.

The mistake produced 120,000 doses of polio vaccine that contained live polio virus.

Notable Court Cases

http://biotech.law.lsu.edu/cases/vaccines/GOTTSDANKER.htm

Injury

40,000 children developed abortive poliomyelitis

56 developed paralytic poliomyelitis

5 died.

The exposures led to an epidemic of polio in the families and communities of the affected children, resulting in a further 113 people paralyzed and 5 deaths.
