You might find these questions (and
answers) thought provoking. If an investigation endeavored to
ask these questions it would lead to some startling conclusions
for Congress and the American people.
1.
Many
parents knew in August
the vaccines were tainted. Why did Congress not find out until
October?
2. Why did the FDA not follow
through in August when contamination was confirmed by Chiron?
3. If Chiron did “batch” testing
on the vaccines, why were ALL 48 million doses contaminated?
4. Is a “batch” 48 million?
(answer: of course not! So where are the “batch” test results
for each batch?)
5. Why was the contamination not
identified and addressed earlier?
6. Chiron made 50 million doses.
Where are the other two million doses and have the REALLY been
tested for
sterility? (P.S.
they are ALREADY in the United States)
7. Did Congress notice those same
CONTAMINATED vaccines were "preserved" with THIMEROSAL?
8. Did Congress and/or FDA know
that Thimerosal is NOT an effective antibacterial and the CDC
has KNOWN that
since at least 1985 (when Dr. Walter
Orenstein and colleagues at CDC published an
article in Pediatrics
in February 1985)?
There are numerous other
peer-reviewed, scientific studies confirming this conclusion.
9. Does Congress and/or FDA
know that studies published as early as 1974 show Thimerosal is
"the least effective"
preservative (Antibacterial
Efficiency of Mercurials
by A. E. Elkhouly and R. T. Yousef in the
Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences in May 1974
10. Does Congress know this SAME
factory in Liverpool has had numerous contamination problems
going back earlier
than 1999? (The FDA website has several warning
letters on file as well)
http://www.iht.com/bin/print.php?file=542448.html
and
http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2004-10-10-flu-vaccine_x.htm
11. Does Congress know that Aventis
Pasteur has also been "red-flagged" for contamination and GMP
difficulties?
12. Has Congress checked to see if
some of the "flu" deaths from 2003 were because of contaminated
vaccines?
See the MMWR
(January
9, 2004/52 (53); 1286-1288)
it indicates that YES, some "flu" deaths
were
because of Serratia marcescens and YES, quite a number of those
"flu" deaths HAD been vaccinated!
13. Did the CDC try to trace it
back to see if any deaths were possibly from contaminated
vaccines or blow it off
like they have the toxic levels of mercury
in those same vaccines?
14. Does
Congress know that anti-virals, such as TamiFlu can be used as a
preventive
measure?
http://www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/antiviral/pdf/fluantivirals.pdf
15. Why
aren’t the FDA and CDC encouraging the use of anti-virals (three
of them cover A and B strains) instead
of creating “panic” over the flu vaccine?
Answer: “the Recipe”
(Strongly
recommend reading all 51 slides but particularly 27 – 29)
16. Does
Congress know how the CDC
"calculates" and predicts "flu" deaths
and that the actual number is no
where near 36,000 as claimed?
257 in 2001 and 753 in 2002
(http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr52/nvsr52_13.pdf
)
17.
Does Congress know that the National Vital Statistics
Report shows a very different picture?
257 in 2001 and 753 in 2002
(http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr52/nvsr52_13.pdf
see page 16)
18. Does
Congress know that the National Vital Statistics Report also
shows that since 1979 the highest number of
influenza deaths is 3006?
(http://www.lungusa.org/atf/cf/%7B7A8D42C2-FCCA-4604-8ADE-7F5D5E762256%7D/PI1.PDF)
19. Did
Congress, FDA or CDC read the UPI article by Mark Benjamin which
appeared in The Washington Times
(among others) titled
'Dire' CDC warnings hiked flu shot demand?
20. If
so, wonder if they have actually viewed
the "Recipe"
for a successful flu season to see the CDC advocates
inciting fear and panic in order to force people to get vaccinated and
keep profits up for manufacturers?
21. Does
Congress know that according to the
2003 Chiron annual report
the company made
$332.4 million
in
sales on flu vaccine alone and had a 53% gross profit?
22. Does
Congress realize that vaccines are “good” and profitable
business and that even insiders admit liability
issues are not the primary reason for fewer manufacturers?
New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/29/business/29inoculate.html
23. Has
Congress, FDA or CDC questioned WHY 1 in 6 American children
(according
to CDC and AAP)
now suffer from a neurodevelopmental disorders and that the
INFLUENZA vaccine contains a known neurotoxin?
24. Did
Congress, FDA or CDC know that a person would have to weigh
550
lbs to be within the EPA safety guidelines when taking a flu
shot which contains 25 mcg of mercury?
25. Can
Congress, FDA or CDC name any other instance where a health care
worker is allowed to
inject
a known toxic substance into pregnant
women, infants, children and senior citizens that EXCEED all
regulatory toxicity guidelines?
26. Has
Congress seen the
CDC/NIP "Blueprint for Success"
where NIP has outlined 7 priorities? Wonder if they know that
VACCINE SAFETY
is #6 (yes, # SIX out of seven)?
27. When
will Congress FINALLY ask the tough questions regarding vaccine
safety?
28. Does
Congress realize their continued failure to ask the right
(albeit difficult) questions gives the appearance they are more
concerned with political position, job security and hefty
campaign contributions from pharmaceutical companies than
addressing what is REALLY happening at the FDA and CDC National
Immunization Program?
29. Does
Congress realize the National Immunization Program WILL collapse
if they don't act quickly and properly to restore
responsibility, accountability, integrity and credibility to the
program because Americans are rapidly losing faith in NIP?
30. Does
Congress realize that parents have tremendous respect for
Congressmen Weldon & Burton and Congresswomen Maloney & Watson
(along with the other 46 House members who have co-sponsored HR
4169) for their leadership in trying to make vaccines safer for
our children?
31. How
many more debacles will it take for the remaining members of
Congress who have NOT supported HR 4169
to be embarrassed enough to get their head out of the sand and
their hands out of the pharmaceutical
companies pockets long enough to protect Americans from this
travesty before the FDA and CDC lose ALL
credibility?
32. Does
Congress understand that parents are SO disgusted with the lack
of response from our “leaders” regarding concerns for our
children’s health and safety that MOST, if not all, are willing
to abandon ALL party loyalty and VOTE for the candidate who
will commit to fixing what is terribly broken within FDA and
CDC/NIP?
33. Why
does Congress not understand they would not have to try so hard
to KEEP their job if they would finally start DOING their job?
If they are ready to ask the
questions, we can help them with the answers. A good place to
start is by insisting that SAFETY be made priority #1!
We are not “anti-vaccine” but safety
issues should
not
be ignored or minimized
by government officials OR the media.
