CONCLUSIONS
( From: "Flu Vaccines: Are they Effective and Safe?" )
Quote From Document:
So what have we learned? To our surprise we are outraged that we have been lied to repeatedly. We believe the sacred halls of science have been co-opted and corrupted by the pharmaceutical and vaccine industry and their search for ever-increasing proprietary money-making drugs. Let us be clear, vaccines are medicines. They are drugs. That is, many of the scientists promoting them have financial interests, and therefore, a bias. At worst, they are dishonest. We are also now aware that dozens of, hitherto, respected pharmaceutical companies do not deserve our respect, because they have been found guilty of falsifying drug trial results, price fixing, providing financial inducement to researchers and physicians, and lining the politicians pockets with consultants, lobbyists and foundations, all of who ultimately influence the CDC’s scheduling of vaccines for children and adults.
We have also learned that what we call vaccine science does not exist. The biggest disappointment is that this truth was in front of us all along. All it would have required was an awareness that if a company had lied to repeated in the past about the safety and efficacy of its drugs, why should be suspend all critical judgment and assume they would be honest all of a sudden about vaccines. Pharmaceutical companies have spent hundreds of billions of dollars settling lawsuits. Their drugs have killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Americans over the decades. Can you imagine that one drug, Vioxx, killed 53,000 people and caused over 100,000 strokes and heart attacks, and still the company gets a bonus? We have learned that real medical and scientific researchers and investigators, who did their homework and who were not influenced by special interests groups or any political and economic pressure, can find no long term double-blind placebo having been conducted to legitimize claims that vaccines are effective and safe. On the contrary, they found numerous studies that for fully vaccinated individuals coming down with the very disease for which they were vaccinated. They also showed that thousands of individuals have received compensation from the federal government due to vaccines. In addition, they have showed that the FDA, CDC and the HHS were fully aware that there were connections between vaccines and illnesses; but, they chose to either downplay it or cover it up, which supports the notion that there is a conspiracy between governmental health agencies and the vaccine industrial complex.
We believe we have also discovered that brave, courageous scientists, physicians, journalists and citizens, who have found the truth about vaccines, have been slandered, libeled and attacked for their truths. Recently an American Senator said the banks on Wall Street own Congress. Truthfully, he could have added the pharmaceutical industry as well. We must now begin an honest, open and scientific effort to prove what really protects the body from pathogens and what actually weakens it and makes it more susceptible to disease and illness. We should surrender the paradigm that vaccination represents immunization and protection when no sound objective science proves that to be the case. To the contrary we now have hundreds of thousands of children in Autistic Spectrum Disorders and a sound science to show that single and multiple vaccines, with their adjuvants and preservatives are clearly suspect. Yet, the vaccine industrial complex continues to deny it.
Across the country, lobbyists representing private vaccine manufacturers have been selling the story that the government must make certain vaccines mandatory with no exceptions. And it should be noted, if there should be a big mistake and thousands or millions of people should become seriously injured or die everyone in the vaccine industrial complex, especially the vaccine makers, should be indemnified.
Several years ago, during production of my first three award-winning documentaries on Gulf War Syndrome, it was surprising to interview so many soldiers who said they suffered from Gulf War Syndrome—with real serious physical and neurological illnesses—who never fought overseas during the war. They did not have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which is a frequent a result of combat; but, they all had something else in common. They had all been given multiple vaccines, including the anthrax and botulism, which contained the adjuvant squalene. Many were too sick after receiving the vaccine to deploy overseas. Yet for eighteen years, all of the 400,000 veterans who are sick with Gulf War Syndrome have been denied the truth of what actually caused their debilitating illnesses.
Further, we have also learned that very few cases of adverse effects have been recorded by the federal authorities that are at least available to independent scientists, researchers and journalists. Consequently, there is no actual number as to the true number of people who have been injured or died from vaccines.
In conclusion, we should ask for national public debates between those who advocate for vaccines and those who challenge them. We believe it is imperative to have this dialogue so we can enable the public to decide for themselves as to whether or not they approve of the new experimental H1N1 vaccine, and all vaccines collectively. Then let the public decide. In a real democracy, an informed patient should have freedom of choice in health decisions. Today, there is no honest debate, no informed consent, no real science, no transparency of vaccine research, and no accurate statistics. Instead, we have federal health agencies, such as the CDC, on its own website, making false claims by misinterpreting pneumonia as influenza. Obviously, this is surely not the case. Finally, it is worse that the power of federal and state governments are being used to mandate the enforcement of a scientifically unproven vaccine, namely the H1N1 swine flu vaccine, in a totalitarian manner upon its citizens. This is not democracy, this is medical tyranny.
