Low-risk pregnant women urged to avoid hospital births#android#iPad#retweet

Women with low-risk pregnancies are to be encouraged to have non-hospital births under new NHS guidelines, which could see almost half of mothers-to-be planning to deliver their baby away from traditional labour wards.

Guidance from National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (Nice) says that midwife-led care has been shown to be safer for women and recommends that all women with low-risk pregnancies – 45% of the total – should be advised that giving birth in a midwifery-led unit, whether attached to a hospital or not, is “particularly suitable”.

The changes, published on Wednesday , have been made because women who give birth under midwife-led care have less chance of being asked to undergo medical interventions such as episiotomies, caesareans and use of forceps or ventouse.

Susan Bewley, professor of complex obstetrics at King’s College, London, and chair of the Nice advisory group, added that infections were more common on hospital wards…

CDC: 1 in 45 Children Diagnosed With Autism#android#iPad#retweet

by TVR Staff

A total of 2.24% of U.S. children (1 in 45 children) aged 3 to 17 years have autism spectrum disorder (ASD), according to new statistics released by the 2014 National Health Interview Survey. The new figure is up from 1.25% reported from 2011 to 2013. The prevalence of developmental delay fell to 3.57% from 4.84%, while the rate of intellectual disability remained virtually unchanged at 1.1%.1 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) attributes the significant jump in autism rates…

Dr. Brownstein: CDC’s Dr. Thompson Needs to be Subpoenaed to Testify Before Congress#android#iPad#retweet

Will Congressman Jason Chaffetz, Chairman of  The Congressional Oversight and Reform Office, who has received campaign donations from pharmaceutical companies, do the right thing for the people, and subpoena Dr. William Thompson, so that he can be legally protected when he testifies?

by Dr. Brownstein  

drbrownstein.com

Last summer, a senior CDC scientist–Dr. William Thompson–admitted that the CDC altered data that showed the MMR vaccine was associated with autism. In fact, the original CDC data showed that the MMR vaccine, when given before 36 months of age was associated with a 240% increase in autism in African American children. Furthermore, there was a 69% increase in autism in any male child who received the vaccine before 36 months of age.  Where is the outrage? Where are the marches? Where are the media reports? If this information is true, tens of thousands of children may have been harmed from receiving a vaccine—MMR–over the last 11 years.

It is now July, 2015. Nearly one year later and nothing has happened. Zip. Zero. No Testimony. No hearing. No nothing. Why?…

…Dr. Thompson must speak, under oath. We all need to email The Congressional Oversight and Reform Office today!! You can email them by cutting and pasting this address: reporttoogr@mail.house.gov. I have included a quick email you can send at the bottom of this post.

CDC scientists held meeting to destroy autism-vaccine documents, reveals CDC whistleblower#android#iPad#retweet

by: Julie Wilson

The results of a 2004 study by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discovered a significant link between the MMR vaccine (measles, mumps and rubella) and autism in African American boys vaccinated under or around the age 36 months; however, if it weren’t for one whistleblower, you would not have been privy to any of this, because the evidence was deliberately covered up.

Dr. William Thompson, currently a senior scientist at the CDC, recently made a shocking admission that he and his colleagues specifically arranged a meeting to destroy important documents related to the study in an attempt to withhold information from the public regarding a link between the MMR vaccine and autism.

As first reported by Sharyl Attkisson, a former CBS News journalist turned independent investigative reporter, Dr. Thompson and the study co-authors “scheduled a meeting to destroy documents related to the study.

“The remaining four co-authors all met and brought a big garbage can into the meeting room, and reviewed and went through all the hardcopy documents…

Govt. Researchers: Flu Shots Not Effective in Elderly, After All#android#iPad#retweet

by

An important and definitive “mainstream” government study done nearly a decade ago got little attention because the science came down on the wrong side. It found that after decades and billions of dollars spent promoting flu shots for the elderly, the mass vaccination program did not result in saving lives. In fact, the death rate among the elderly increased substantially.

The authors of the study admitted a bias going into the study. Here was the history as described to me: Public health experts long assumed flu shots were effective in the elderly. But, paradoxically, all the studies done failed to demonstrate a benefit. Instead of considering that they, the experts, could be wrong–instead of believing the scientific data–the public health experts assumed the studies were wrong. After all, flu shots have to work, right?

So the NIH launched an effort to do “the” definitive study that would actually prove, for the first time, once and for all, that flu shots were beneficial to the elderly. The government would gather some of the brightest scientific minds for the research, and adjust for all kinds of factors that could be masking that presumed benefit.

But when they finished, no matter how they crunched the numbers, the data kept telling the same story: flu shots were of no benefit to the elderly…
