Peer Review Process in Academic Publishing Untrustworthy#android#iPad#retweet

The peer review process is the pride of rigorous academic publishing. It is a critical component used to maintain the integrity of academic publications and a method used to ensure that information appearing in the scientific and medical literature is thoroughly vetted for accuracy.

How Does Peer Review Work?

The process begins after a researcher submits a paper to an academic journal. The editors of the journal then assign a group of independent reviewers to evaluate and critique the content of paper.1 Often, the researcher submitting the study will offer names of scholars in their field of study who are qualified to undertake the reviews. However, the final decision on the selection of reviewer typically lies in the hands of the journal editors.1

After the reviewers are appointed, they are required to investigate the research methodology used to conduct the study and provide feedback on any further improvements that can be made.1 In cases where the research methodology is flawed, reviewers have the ability to reject the paper. Typically, reviewers have no direct contact with the researchers and communicate their feedback via the editors of the journal who then decide to accept or reject the paper for publication.1

“Universal” Failure: Public Health’s Answer to Prevention#android#iPad#retweet

By Natalie Moore

  • What is herd immunity doing (or not doing) for you?
  • What are Americans doing almost as much as paying taxes?
  • Fever, aches, paralysis – Oh, my!

Dear reader,

Picture it.

Every staff member in the emergency room is covered head to toe in masks, gowns and gloves.

Patients spread about the ER bays — the worst cases rushed to isolation rooms.

Families, particularly those with children, told to leave for their own protection.

Medications and vaccines stockpiled in nurses stations so quickly pharmacy can’t fill the orders.

Instantly, emails fly out to all of the floors.

Administrators, VPs, infection control specialists, and department managers frantically making emergency census plans, hiring more part-time staff.

Frantically adding employees to on-call lists — preparing for the certain onslaught of sick patients and inevitable nursing staff absences.

What kind of outbreak could cause such madness?

Ebola?

Measles?

The plague?!

Nope.

As a mental health triage screener, this is the scene I observed each year since the first case of influenza rolled into the ER.

Managers instructed (bullied)…

Parents Share Why They Will Never Vaccinate Again#android#iPad#retweet

jlvranes Leave a comment

1. My Son died 40 hours after his 2 mos. shots. I NEVER knew of vaccine injury before. I feel guilty everyday because it was the one thing I didn’t look into and wish I did. Death

2. After my daughter suffered an adverse reaction to her 2 month shots, we were made to believe it was normal and that she’d be fine. It didn’t sit right so we delayed heavily. She received her 6 month shots at her 8 month appointment and then they suggested we catch her up. I was so angry that they would even recommend such a thing! So many shots full of multiple vaccines in one sitting. We never went back. In fact, my daughter has never been to a doctor appointment since then except her follow up with a specialist after breaking her arm and visiting the ER.  Injury or adverse reaction

3. I wish that were the case for me. I get blackmailed into well child visits. I work for a state gov and the insurance is fantastic. The whole family is on my insurance. However I also have to participate in this “health enhancement program”. We have to do physicals and well visits and things like that. They say it’s a choice but if you choose not to be a part of the program the cost of insurance triples and I can’t afford that. Luckily we like our pediatrician who doesn’t force the vax issue. But I hate being told I have to do things which are unnecessary. If the program ever made childhood vaccines something you had to do I would have no choice but to drop this insurance and we would be screwed.  Coerced or forced…

…4. For me it was when I had to be revaccinated for hep b to take a job in the medical field. I had records showing I’d had the full series, yet was being shown through a titer for hep b that I had no antibodies towards it. I thought how could that be, don’t vaccines make you immune….why do I need more? I started my research from there, this was years before we had kids.  Research or Family Experience

5. I’m a nurse and I worked giving the flu vaccine to employees all over los angeles. We were told to lie about the shots and the contents. Also the way we handled the vials was very important. We were not supposed to get vaccine on our hands.  Then my daughter started getting reactions and I found myself praying she didn’t die after her round of shots from the dr. When I finally realized I could say no, I did.

What were the lies specifically? That there wasn’t mercury or other ingredients or anything else?…

Rise In Autism Linked To Chickenpox Vaccine Containing Aborted Fetal DNA#android#iPad#retweet

jlvranes Leave a comment

The Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute has uncovered CDC and Department of Education data that shows that chickenpox vaccine use is highly statistically related to autism disorder prevalence in every state in the US.

While many parents have questioned vaccines containing mercury for years as possibly related to the rise in autism, this new research suggests another and far more ghoulish contaminant – aborted fetal remains. That’s right. Some vaccines actually contain aborted fetal DNA material. And while the use of mercury in vaccines has declined drastically, autism rates have continued to climb along with the inclusion of abortion materials in vaccines!! With autism a constant focus in our society today, why won’t the CDC and Department of Education – or the mainstream media – touch this??

Following is the compelling report of Dr. Theresa Deisher, President, Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute:

Over four years ago it was obvious to my eye that autism disorder rates changed dramatically in certain specific years. Looking at autism disorder prevalence data from the US Dept of Education it was clear that there were three specific years in which autism prevalence rose dramatically, and Sound Choice went on to perform the statistical analysis to show that 1980, 1988 and 1996 were ‘changepoint’ years for autism disorder.

In 2010 the EPA published data confirming the 1988 changepoint as a worldwide autism disorder changepoint. As the EPA scientists point out in their publication, identification of ‘changepoints’ such as these tell us that some environmental factor was introduced that triggered such a sudden and dramatic rise in autism. Shown in the accompanying diagram are the 3 changepoints Sound Choice identified for autism disorder prevalence in the US. What environmental factor is associated with these three changepoints? The only childhood universal factor that is associated with all three changepoints is the introduction ofvaccines contaminated with aborted fetal DNA and retroviral fragments…

Dear parents, you’re STILL being lied to (rebuttal to Jennifer Raff’s unsupported pro-vaccination claims)#android#iPad#retweet

…In 1994, a song written by a jam band called Blues Traveler came out and was played in clubs and on radios across the nation.  It made the top ten charts and remains one of the most memorable songs from the 1990’s.  That song was entitled Hook and the lyrics of the song assert that even if what a singer sings about is effectively meaningless, listeners will keep coming back to it so long as it’s articulated in a way that makes listeners feel “some inner truth of vast reflection” is being conveyed.  Most listeners didn’t even pay attention to the lyrics, but sang along anyway.  Well, folks, that’s exactly what’s been happening recently with an article on vaccinations that’s been making the rounds lately.  Welcome to information age, where a blog post can be shared all over cyberspace and receive over 10,000 “likes” on facebook and say very little that is actually useful.

Entitled “Dear parents, you are being lied to,” Jennifer Raff lists all the vaccination-related arguments she’s heard over the years from (presumably) those who choose not to vaccinate (she simply addresses a collective “they.”)  What makes this article so appealing is that she doesn’t bog us down with details.  She simply lists her points statement-rebuttal style and includes a few links to her pro-vaccination statements.  The problem with this is that when you take the time to dig down into the details, you soon realize she’s wrong.  By exaggerating the information cited in each argument, she makes what is (judging by the popularity of the article) an apparently compelling argument to those unwilling to dig deeper, but is essentially a straw man once the surface is scratched….

…JENNIFER RAFF SAYS OUTBREAKS OF MEASLES ARE ON THE RISE

“In light of recent outbreaks of measles and other vaccine preventable illnesses, and the refusal of anti-vaccination advocates to acknowledge the problem, I thought it was past time for this post.”

“Recent outbreaks” according to the linked article: 189 (out of roughly 300,000,000) people in 2013.

To put this in perspective, that’s 1 out of every 1,500,000 (1) in the United States.  That’s hardly an epidemic.

Flu Vaccine is the most Dangerous Vaccine in the U. S. based on Settled Cases for Injuries#android#iPad#retweet

jlvranes Leave a comment

Health Impact News

The last report issued in 2013 by the Department of Justice (Vaccine Court), for compensation made by the Health and Human Services for people injured or killed by vaccines, was released in December 2013, covering the period of 8/16/2013 through 11/15/2013. The report is available as a Power Point presentation here.

There were 139 claims settled during this time period, with 70 of them being compensated. So, just over 50% of the claims filed for vaccine damages were compensated during this period.

Once again, the greatest percentage of damages compensated were for the influenza vaccine, and most of those were for Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). Yet these facts, tucked away in a file on the Department of Health and Human Services website, are never reported in the mainstream media. So we will report them here. You can also read the report yourself in the Power Point file here.

Of the 70 cases compensated, 42 of them were for the flu vaccine, or 60% of the cases settled where compensation was awarded for injury or death due to the vaccine. The combined total of the other 40% of cases settled included the following vaccines: Hep B, Tetanus, HPV, DTaP, MMR, IPV, PCV, Hib, Meningococcal, Varicella, TD…

…So injuries and deaths due to the flu vaccine were compensated more than the total compensation paid out to eleven other vaccines. Yet, if you look at the top selling vaccines in the market, the top flu vaccine is only #5, being outsold by Prevnar, Gardasil, PENTAct-HIB, and Infanrix/Pediarix. (Source.)

When you receive your “routine” annual flu shot, are you aware of these statistics?

And this is just for a 3 month period during 2013…

DHHS Withholds Vaccine Injury Data and Rolls Out Vaccine Confidence Plan#android#iPad#retweet

jlvranes Leave a comment

by Theresa Wrangham, NVIC Executive Director

In recent years, information about compensated vaccine injury claims published in the VICP Data and Statistics Report has changed – but not for the better. This report prepared by DHHS officials continues to provide limited insight into vaccine injury and death awards, despite the fact that federal law states the public has a right to additional information,1 much of which is presented in bits and pieces during ACCV meetings.

Under the 1986 law, the public is entitled to the following information about VICP vaccine injury and death petitions:

  • the number of petitions filed with the VICP and their disposition, the dates of when vaccine-related injuries and deaths occurred;
  • the types and amounts of awards; and,
  • the length of time for the disposition of petitions;

While DHHS gives some of this information to the ACCV on a quarterly basis, the information is not as meaningful as it could be because of the way it is presented in ACCV meetings and on the VICP’s website. There is no ability for the public, or the ACCV for that matter, to connect the dots between vaccine injuries compensated by vaccine and condition over time, or to determine the reasons and any associated trends on why petitions are dismissed and claimants are denied compensation…

Meet Christopher#android#iPad#retweet

jlvranes Leave a comment

Written by Sandy Kanervisto; mother to Christopher Kanervisto.

…November 20th, Christopher was supposed to pick his girlfriend up at the Frontrunner station and when he didn’t show up and she couldn’t reach him she called one of his friends who called me. I called his roommate who found him. He had passed away in his sleep.

That was the day my world stopped.

We spoke with the medical examiner about his medical history several times over the next two months looking for a cause. The only thing that was out of the ordinary was the vaccine. She called us on February 10th to say she thought the cause of death would be “unknown” but they were going to do one more test on his heart. (I remember the date. Christopher’s birthday is February 11th).

We finally received the autopsy results in mid-February 2010. Cause of death:  Viral Myocarditis. The medical examiner said it was the “flu” he had in October. I reminded her he had not had the flu; it was the vaccine he had in October…

…He studied environmental law at Westminster College for one year but decided he didn’t want to be a lawyer.  He said there were too many rules; he wanted to use his creativity and pursue a degree in his first love, architecture.  So he transferred to Utah State University in August 2009. On October 15, 2009 he flew to Oregon with his dad to look at schools. He wanted to start with a civil engineering degree and then pursue a degree in architecture with an emphasis in sustainable architecture…

What a sad loss.  My condolences to this family. You can tell Christopher is just an amazing son.  I am so sorry.

Thank you for getting the word out and yes these type of reactions are becoming commonplace world-wide.

I am certain that your story will help another family from going through this same pain as you have.

I do believe you will be reunited with him one day.
