Why The Press Shouldn’t Dismiss Vaccine Skeptics#Health#Vaccines#HPV

jlvranes Leave a comment

Written By: Lawrence Solomon

Those who question vaccination programs are kooks or quacks, the press repeatedly tells us. The Globe and Mail, CBS News, Mother Jones and even scientific journals like Nature label skeptics as “vaccination deniers,” much as global warming skeptics are called “deniers.”

Slate magazine, citing the medical journal Vaccine, deplores “the global anti-vaccination movement [as] a loose coalition of rogue scientists, journalists, parents, and celebrities, who think that vaccines cause disorders like autism – a claim that has been thoroughly discredited by modern science.” Commentary, a serious publication that covers politics, refers to skeptics as “vaccination truthers.”

This wholesale demeaning of vaccine skeptics defies explanation. Granted, kooks and quacks exist in the vaccination field, just as they exist elsewhere. But why taint the skeptics as a whole, and fail to respectfully report dissenting views? No journalist would have had any difficulty finding dozens of distinguished skeptical scientists for the very few “rogue” scientists that the press has vilified.

How hard, for example, should it have been for the press to notice the views of Dr. Bernadine Healy, the former head of the National Institute of Health, the former head of the American Red Cross, and the former Chair of the White House Cabinet Group on Biotechnology, one of several White House positions she held in service to three U.S. presidents.

Dr. Healy criticized the public health establishment for being “too quick to dismiss [vaccine concerns] as irrational…The more you delve into it, if you look at the basic science, if you look at the research that’s been done in animals, if you also look at some of these individual cases, and if you look at the evidence… what you come away with is that the question [of vaccine safety] has not been answered.”

Dr. Healy’s views would have been particularly easy to find because they were actually aired by one of America’s leading journalists, Sharyl Attkisson of CBS News, in one of the rare instances in which the mainstream press fairly presented a skeptic’s perspective on the vaccine issue.

Journalists should also have had no trouble finding Dr. Diane Harper, a lead developer of the controversial Gardasil vaccine and another interviewee of Attkisson’s. Dr. Harper believes this vaccine, which is being recommended for teens and pre-teens to combat cervical cancer, is less effective than the common Pap smear, and that it may harm more children than it helps. “Parents and women must know that deaths occurred,” she stated in arguing that parents need to know that they could be subjecting their children to needless risks.

Premier Wellness Infrared Sauna                                  

Premier Wellness of Utah offers infrared sauna treatment as an effective tool for natural healing and prevention.

Detoxification and Your Skin

Your skin is the largest organ of your body. The subcutaneous fatty layer is located just below the skin. An infrared sauna emits rays that penetrate into the tissues to a depth of 1.5 inches and has the ability to produce a host of anti-aging health benefits. The increased depth of penetration provides pain-relief, detoxification and increased circulation.

Heat stimulates our fat cells to release the accumulated debris that they have been holding on to.The infrared sauna also stimulates the sebaceous glands to release harmful toxins such as petrochemicals, mercury and other heavy metals.

This is a great way to get to the core of many different health challenges and illuminate them from the body in an easy, relaxing way.

Since humans are bio-accumulators, toxins that cannot be expelled immediately after entry are stored in our bodies. One of the reasons infrared saunas are so beneficial with a variety of different illnesses is the ability of the FAR waves to accelerate the removal of toxins such as sulphur, formaldehyde, heavy metals and more.

Weight Loss From Perspiration

Weight loss from perspiration is quickly regained. It is possible to burn upwards to 700 calories in a single session in an infrared sauna. Bt increasing the core body temperature, you increase the blood circulation creating a hyperthermic state. This open your capillaries, converts fat and increases heart rate. Some infrared sauna proponents claim that a 30 minute sauna session is equivalent to jogging or rowing for thirty minutes.

The removal of heavy metals that were contributing to metabolic and hormonal imbalance and weight gain can also improve the basal metabolic rate and normalize body weight. The decrease of toxins stored in the subcutaneous fat goes a long way towards increasing a feeling of lightness in the body and willingness to exercise. Also increasing circulation and oxygenation to the glands improves their health and their ability to keep the body balanced.

Sports Recovery:

Replenish the sore, damaged or tired muscles of an athlete with an infrared sauna treatment. The heat penetrates the muscles, increasing blood circulation and assisting muscle repair. Infrared heat will also help in the reduction of lactic acids, allowing tight and worn-out muscles to relax. The penetrating heat of the infrared sauna can also help ease the pain of a muscle sprain (after administration of cold and compression).

Just as infrared saunas help chronic pain sufferers (such as those with Lyme disease and fibromyalgia), they can also help ease joint pain in athletes. The relaxation of the muscles controlling the joints and the increased circulation to the joints enhances healing and recovery.

Psoriasis and other skin conditions:

According to many forms of holistic medicine, psoriasis and many other skin disorders actually originate in the liver. When certain toxins are ingested, the liver does not have the ability to break down, metabolize and excrete the toxins. The toxins are sent to the skin for elimination via sweat. When the toxins hit the cells just below the skin, the body overproduces skin cells by a factor of 10,000.

The toxins come out on the dead skin cells. By sweating regularly and profusely, the toxins are eliminated via the sweat and sebaceous glands as opposed to through the shedding of skin. The dramatic increase in circulation to the skin that comes with infrared sauna use is also a major factor in toning, tightening and rejuvenating the skin.

Heart Disease:

A Study done at the Mayo Clinic performed on 37 congestive heart failure patients. All 37 displayed improvement and some even got off their medications after 6 weeks of low heat infrared sauna therapy.

Arthritis:

The heat generated from the infrared waves, penetrate deeply into the joints and muscles to break up lactic acid deposits and to increase circulation to the joint capsules which accelerates soft tissue repair and increases the suppleness, flexibility and pliability of the connective tissue.

Asthma:

Infrared sauna therapy studies demonstrated that industrial chemical exposure was alleviated in about 4 weeks. Some regular infrared sauna aficionados claim that inhaler use dropped from 3x / week to 3x / year.

Fibromyalgia (chronic pain disorder):

Many holistic doctors and more and more traditional medical doctors are beginning to believe that these types of patients have a very large toxic burden. It is also the case that for many of them, the liver (the major detoxification organ) and the kidneys (the major organ of filtration and excretion) are not functioning optimally. Oftentimes when toxic load begins to lighten up, many symptoms begin to decrease. The infrared sauna is invaluable for accelerating heavy metal and petrochemical excretion.

Aging:

Common problems associated with lifestyle and aging, such as hypertension and osteoporosis, headaches and digestive problems, are attributed by some scientists to be the result of excess acidity in our system. The American Medical Journal found that in patients with bone loss, alkalizing their system caused a decrease in bone loss. Their conclusion was that our typical American diet is acid producing. The acids deposited in our blood are often stored by the body in forms of cholesterol, fatty acid, uric acid, and other villains that cause havoc in our system. Sang Whang, the author of “Reverse Aging” claims that these excess acids can be eliminated with the use of far infrared products, along with consuming certain alkaline minerals and foods. The far infrared resonance heats up the internal temperature of the body, increasing circulation, thus enabling the blood to melt out the acidic toxins that have been deposited for years in one’s arteries.

FIR and Healthy Arteries:

When the normally smooth, firm lining of the arteries becomes thickened and roughened by deposits of fat, fibrin, calcium and cellular debris, it lessens the arteries ability to expand and contract, and slows the blood movement through narrowed channels. These conditions make it easier for blood clots to form, blocking the arteries and stopping blood flow completely. FIR is able to neutralize blood toxicity and smooth the walls of arteries, capillaries and veins.

Tall Tales#Vaccines#Flu#Health

by Jenny Thompson

Dear Reader,                                         

You can file this one under “Tall Tales.” Or maybe “Big Pharma Fantasy.”

Researchers claim they’ve discovered an unexpected, lifesaving benefit from the flu shot.

This new research is just as flimsy as the old stuff. But this time it’s a little different. That’s because it’s the second go-around. What they’re doing now is trying to spin this yarn into a truth.

——————————————————————————–
Dumb and dumber
——————————————————————————–

Two cockamamie studies. That’s what they’re building this insane recommendation on.

According to a team of rent-a-researchers, the flu shot reduces risk of a heart attack by 19 percent.

That’s what they told us in 2010. But anyone with first-grade math skills saw right through the scam.

It turned out that there were 19 percent fewer heart attack patients vaccinated in the previous year. That was the invented “risk reduction” So no — the flu shot did not prevent heart attacks. End of story.

Well…end of story for THAT study. Now we have a new one. Same junk science. Different methodology.

In about 560 people, half had heart attacks and half did not. It turned out that rates of flu shots happened to be lower in the heart attack group. And then the researchers take a mighty leap into pure fantasy… The flu shot prevents heart attacks.

Keep in mind, many of these people had serious heart problems. You can bet their immune systems were pushed to the limit. And of course, those who do get a shot are more likely to take care of themselves to stay healthy.

Here’s the kicker: The study was bankrolled by GlaxoSmithKline. And just five days before the study was published, the FDA approved GSK’s new flu shot. My! Isn’t THAT convenient timing!

So now we have two of these lousy studies being reported on.

But the quality of the studies doesn’t matter. The headlines are out there… “Flu shot stops heart attacks.”

Little by little, that’s how the myth will become conventional wisdom. And eventually, you’ll hear people say, “You should get a flu shot. It actually prevents heart attacks.”

Let me be clear: It ACTUALLY does NOT.

And if you want proof, consider this: If it really did, they would drop the word “flu”, rename it, sell it as a heart attack vaccine, and start pushing it twice as hard 365 days a year.

Is the thought of injecting ground up monkey parts into children disturbing to you, as it is to me? Can you believe that this process still takes place today, and alternative methods have been available for some time.

The correlation between the epicenter of A.I.D.S., and the oral, live polio vaccine campaign, in parts of Africa, is striking, and deserves greater investigation.

Dr. Deisher testifies on the connection between vaccines and rising rates of autism (2 of 4). #Autism#Vaccines#ASD

jlvranes Leave a comment

You would think, that back in 1988, when Human DNA from aborted fetuses, was introduced to vaccines, that the public would have been made aware.

Based on philosophical and religious reasons, many choose not to vaccinate for this reason alone. Fortunately, there are many options for building up the immune system, that individuals employ everyday.

I think Dr. Deisher would be an ideal candidate, to receive additional grant money, for vaccine research!

France: Aluminum Adjuvants and HPV Vaccines Up for Debate#Vaccines#HPV#Health

jlvranes Leave a comment

By Norma Erickson, President

 SaneVax-FeaturedParis, France: The use of aluminum adjuvants and HPV vaccines’ benefit versus risk profile will be under intense scrutiny and open scientific debate on May 22, 2014. Stakeholders from both sides of the vaccine debate will have an opportunity to present their case to members of the French Parliament, French Senate, health authorities, medical professionals and the public due to massive efforts on the part of E3M, a non-governmental organization of patients with MMF (macrophagic myofasciitis), and OSTA, a Parliamentary Office for Evaluation of Scientific and Technological Choice.

Obviously, the French government cares enough about the health and well-being of their citizens to listen to both sides of the vaccine debate – the very same ‘debate’ that government health officials in other countries claim doesn’t exist.

Vaccine Safety Debates

French government officials are willing to listen to the victims of adverse events after vaccination. They are willing to listen to scientists and medical professionals who have been conducting research to find out why some people are prone to experiencing adverse reactions after vaccination.

Not only is the French government willing to listen to the survivors of vaccine injury and scientists; they are willing to facilitate open debates with the press in attendance.

On Thursday, May 22 French government officials in cooperation with E3M will sponsor four separate round table discussions followed by open debates and press conferences.

The morning activities, organized by E3M with the financial support from the Regional Council of Ile-de-France, are primarily reserved for parliamentarians, health authorities and journalists. The first two round table debates will be led by Virginie Belle, a journalist specializing in Public Health, at the French National Assembly. The schedule of events is as follows:

Aluminum and Vaccines – International expertise requires us to act

Danielle Auroi, President of the European Affairs Committee (French Parliament) will open the conference with a short speech at 9am, followed by:

  • “The Time for Action” by Didier Lambert, president of E3M
  • “The positioning of the French health authorities” by Prof Benoit Vallet, Director of General Health.

First Round Table – Aluminum: an adjuvant under monitoring:

Introduction by Laurence Cohen, member of the Social Affairs Committee of the Senate, Member of the Board of ANSM (national drug agency)

Testimony of Dr. Bernard Izard, affected by macrophagic myofasciitis

Toxicity of aluminum in humans, by Prof. Chris Exley, Keele University, UK

Bio-persistence and neuro-migration of aluminum adjuvant, by Prof. Romain Gherardi, Manager of the Center of Muscle Neuropathology, H. Mondor Hospital, France

A clinical syndrome associated with the bio-persistence of aluminum adjuvants, by Prof Jérôme Authier, Head of the Center of Reference for Neuromuscular Diseases, H. Mondor Hospital, France

The autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants, by Prof Yehuda Shoenfeld, Director of the Center for Autoimmune Diseases, Sheba Medical Center, Tel-Aviv University, and Chairman of the 9th International Congress on Autoimmunity, Israel

The autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants in animals, by Dr. Lluis Lujan, Veterinary Pathologist, University of Zaragoza, Spain

Presentations followed by a debate and conclusion by Laure Lechatellier, Vice President of the Regional Council of Ile de France.

Second Round Table – Vaccination against HPV: caution should be exercised

Introduction by Sophie Errante, MP, co-chair of the Health and Environment Group of the French National Assembly.

Testimony of Marie LOCHU, Orianne’s mother, affected by MMF after vaccination against HPV

 “A plausible pathogenesis of systemic adverse events after HPV vaccination” by Dr. Sin Hang Lee – Pathologist , Molecular Laboratory , Milford Hospital , USA

“Vaccination against HPV: a benefit/risk balance discussed” by Dr. Lucija Tomljenovic – Research Group on neuronal dynamics, University of British Columbia, Canada

Once again, the testimony above will be followed by an open debate on the HPV vaccine risk/benefit profile.

The conclusion will be presented by Michèle Rivasi, member of European Parliament.

Jean- Louis Roumegas, co-chair of the Health and Environment Group of the French National Assembly, will conduct a press conference to answer inquiries about the morning discussions.

This conference continues in the afternoon with a public hearing sponsored by The OSTA of the French Parliament. OSTA is composed of members of both the French National Assembly and the French Senate. They are a working group within the French Parliament responsible for studying scientific questions which elicit intense national debate.

Vaccine Adjuvants: A Disputed Issue

For many decades, aluminum salts have been added to vaccines as adjuvants to stimulate an immune response.

According to some scientists, the safety profile of these adjuvants is excellent. On the other hand, studies conducted over the last 15 years insists there is a link between these adjuvants and various medical conditions which indicate the long term effects of using aluminum salts as adjuvants should be further analyzed.

OSTA is sponsoring public debates to discuss the controversy beginning with a reception at 1:00 pm on May 22nd. The entire programme can be viewed here – (official program here)

First Round Table:  The Safety and Efficacy of Aluminum Vaccine Adjuvants

Session 1: The points of view of the scientific community

  • Prof Yehuda Shoenfeld, chairman of the 9th international congress on autoimmunity, chief of the medicine department, Tel Aviv University of medicine

  • Prof Christopher Exley, professor in bioorganic chemistry, Keele University, United Kingdom

  • Prof Romain Gherardi, chief of the department of histology and embryology, Henri Mondor Hospital

  • Prof Jean-François Bach, perpetual secretary of the National Academy of Science and member of the National Academy of Medicine

  • Prof Daniel Floret, chairman of the technical comity of vaccinations, High Council of Public Health

  • Prof Brigitte Autran, professor of immunology at Pierre and Marie Curie University, chief of the department of immunology at La Pitié-Salpétrière Hospital, in charge of the coordination of the Consortium for research on vaccination (COREVAC)

Session 2: The points of view of the other stakeholders

  • Prof Benoît Vallet, director-general of health, Ministry for social affairs and health

  • Dr. Nathalie Garcon, vaccine adjuvants specialist, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK)

  • Prof Michel Georget, biologist, representative of the National League for Freedom of vaccinations

  • Dr. Bernard Izard

  • Dr. Nicolas Ferry, director of innovative therapies, human body’s products and vaccines, National Agency of Drug Safety

Second Round Table: Which Patterns To Plan In The Future?

Session 1: Is a moratorium a pertinent answer?

  • a former member of the studies group on vaccination of the National Assembly

  • Prof François Jérôme Authier, responsible for the reference Centre of rare diseases, Henri Mondor Hospital

  • Prof Laurent Belec, chief of the laboratory of virology, Georges Pompidou Hospital

  • Prof Pierre Bégué, member of the National Academy of Medicine

  • Mr. Serge Montero, chairman of the vaccine Comity, Drug companies

Session 2: Are there alternative vaccine adjuvants?

  • Mr. Didier Lambert, chairman of the Association of mutual assistance for patients suffering from macrophagic myofasciiti

  • Prof Hervé Bazin, emeritus professor of Louvain University

  • Prof Bernard Begaud, director of the department of pharmacoepidemiology and evaluation of the impact of health products, National Institute of Medical and Research Studies

  • a member of Sanofi-Pasteur

Much to the credit of the French government, both of these round table debates will be open to the public in the presence of the press and television. These debates are not occurring behind closed doors with the proceedings hidden forever from the public.

As a matter of fact, members of E3M intend to go one step further and personally interview each scientist attending and produce a video of each scientist’s presentation for public distribution.

Make no mistake – these events did not happen by accident. They are the result of many years of hard work on the part of victims of adverse events post-vaccination, ethical scientific and medical professionals willing to conduct the necessary research and report their findings, political representatives who do the job they were elected to perform, and dedicated vaccine safety advocates.

France is leading the way toward vaccine safety. Will governments in other countries listen to the vaccine-injured? Will governments in other countries sponsor open scientific debate?

In order to protect the health of our next generation, there is really no viable alternative.
