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

by Rishma Parpia

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

Stop the Lies- 30,000 people are NOT dying from the flu in the US each year!#android#iPad#retweet

And this is according to the numbers provided directly from the CDC:

http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm6421a5.htm

The lies need to stop. We talk about evidence-based practice, so let’s look at what the evidence says.

As of today’s date there are 322,014,008 people living in the USA. http://www.census.gov/popclock/

The CDC says that

During September 28, 2014–May 23, 2015, World Health Organization (WHO) and National Respiratory and Enteric Virus Surveillance System collaborating laboratories in the United States tested 691,952 specimens for influenza viruses; 125,462 (18.1%) were positive.

So there were only 125,462 cases of confirmed influenza for last year’s flu season in the United States. Out of 322,014,008 people, this accounts for 0.0004% of the population that actually had confirmed influenza and not just flu-like illness.

Furthermore, the CDC states that out of these 125,462 cases,

17,911 total hospitalizations resulting from influenza during October 1, 2014–April 30, 2015

So, if only 17,911 people are hospitalized, how on earth can 30,000 people be dead of the US of influenza?

And among the adults that were hospitalized, most had other conditions that also contributed to their hospitalization as…

“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)…

58,000 New Autism Cases Per Year. 150 Measles Cases This Year.#android#iPad#retweet

Guest Writer Sharon Pelvic – We have become such a socially misguided society that we can’t even see out of our own ways anymore. The propaganda machine is a steamrolling train that’s trampling our very civil liberties.

In Florida, they are looking to pass legislation that will force every child to be vaccinated. The Florida bill really pushes the envelope here, which is concerning because you must assume other states could come up with more intense and harsh methods to force vaccinations.

In California, the state’s SB277 bill just got one step closer to becoming the law of that land. A state that’s literally running out of water, the lifeblood resource of human beings, is focused on forcing vaccines down it’s people’s throats in exchange for profits and gold.

At the end of the day, what are we looking at as the driving force behind all of this?

150 harmless measles cases.

That’s just baffling. 58,000 kids each year will be diagnosed on the spectrum of Autism to varying degrees, yet 150 non-injurious measles cases have set the stage for one of the biggest, most absurd, marketing campaigns of our time. Big Pharmaceutical companies have overstepped all ethical boundaries and have now become complicit with the destruction of personal and civil rights…
