The Practice of Silencing Medical Doctors Must End#Vaccines#HearThisWell#Truth
By Tetyana Obukhanych, Ph.D.
A recent blog post by Dr. Daniel Neides, M.D., Medical Director and Chief Operating Officer of the Cleveland Clinic Wellness Institute, entitled “Make 2017 the Year to Avoid Toxins (Good Luck) and Master Your Domain: Words on Wellness” sparked a social media storm and a threat of disciplinary action against Dr. Neides by the Cleveland Clinic.
Dr. Neides’s post was prompted by his personal experience following a Thimerosal-free flu shot. He writes: “Within 12 hours of receiving the [flu] vaccine, I was in bed feeling miserable and missed two days of work with a terrible cough and body aches.”
But did Dr. Neides’s blog post relating his personal flu shot experience (and his opinion as to why he thinks he got sick right afterward) and encouraging people to avoid toxins really warrant a backlash?…

Cleveland Medical Director Attacked for Questioning Vaccine Safety#Vaccines#HearThisWell#Truth
by Jefferey Jaxen
Health Impact News
Last week Medical Director and Chief Operating Officer Dr. Daniel Neides of the Cleveland Clinic decided to post an op-ed article titled “Make 2017 the Year to Avoid Toxins (good luck) and Master Your Domain: Words on Wellness.” Half of the article is dedicated to the known and well-documented fact that the public in the U.S. is exposed to an unprecedented toxic burden that, for the most part, relies on the daily choices in many areas of each individual’s life. The other half of the piece is dedicated to raising questions for the public and the medical community to consider regarding vaccines and the current vaccination program in the United States, a program that has seen over $3 billionin injury and death payouts; $114 million in 2015 alone.
Dr. Neides opens his article describing his personal experience with a recent adverse reaction he endured from the flu vaccine he received. A vaccine that continually tops the Department of Justice’s payout list for damages awardedracking up $61 million alone in 2015.
Dr. Neides’ premise throughout his piece was for the public to “start with ourselves” when making our own decisions about our individual health and wellness. He explicitly states:
“My goal is to help you think about your total body burden related to toxic exposures” and “discover ways to assist our bodies to optimally detoxify.”
As Dr. Neides, like his recent free thinking medical peers…
CDC “Spider” Scientists Attack The CDC, Blow The Lid Off#vaccines#Truth#CDC
They write a letter to the CDC chief of staff … And I write a letter to them
There is a group of anonymous scientists at the US Centers for Disease Control—they call themselves the Spider Group—Scientists Preserving Integrity, Diligence and Ethics in Research. They have penned a letter to the CDC’s chief of staff, Carmen S. Villar:
Here is the explosive accusation they make:
“We are a group of scientists at CDC that are very concerned about the current state of ethics at our agency. It appears that our mission is being influenced and shaped by outside parties and rogue interests. It seems that our mission and Congressional intent for our agency is being circumvented by some of our leaders. What concerns us most, is that it is becoming the norm and not the rare exception.”
“Some senior management officials at CDC are clearly aware and even condone these behaviors. Others see it and turn the other way. Some staff are intimidated and pressed to do things they know are not right.”
“We have representatives from across the agency that witness…

Medwatcher Japan takes on GAVCS#Vaccines#Childshots#Truth
By Norma Erickson
Gardasil and Cervarix: The medical consumer safety group Medwatcher Japan and the GAVCS (Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety) are at odds regarding HPV vaccine safety, efficacy and need. Medwatcher also made allegations of scientific misconduct and coercion on the part of GAVCS.
Gardasil and Cervarix were included in Japan’s national immunization program for only six weeks in 2013 before government health officials rescinded their recommendation for HPV vaccine use due to the high rate of serious adverse events being reported following vaccine administration. This decision set off a firestorm of controversy that shows no sign of rapid resolution. (More information here)
Pharmaceutical companies, vaccine stakeholders and international health authorities such as GAVCS declare HPV vaccines safe and effective while dismissing the reported adverse events as coincidence, hysteria, or downright lies. These groups continue to push for increased vaccine uptake in Japan claiming lives will be lost if vaccine uptake is not strong.
Scientists, medical professionals and HPV vaccine survivor groups say a temporal relationship between HPV vaccines and excessive adverse events exists which warrants acknowledgement and independent investigation. They believe regardless of what caused the new medical conditions, the girls deserve recognition and treatment for their symptoms. They believe HPV vaccine administration should be halted until such time as efficacy can be established and safety issues are resolved.
The most recent development in this ongoing debate was the following announcement published by Medwatcher Japan on 2 November 2016:
Medwatcher Japan submitted “Refutation of GACVS (Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety) statement on Safety of HPV vaccine on December17, 2015” to WHO on November 2, 2016.
Medwatcher Japan firmly rejects as flawed and totally unacceptable the Committee’s “Statement on Safety of HPV Vaccines: 17 December 2015”.
The GACVS statement not only exhibits an incorrect understanding of the situation in Japan but also reveals a mistaken assessment of the risk-benefit balance of this vaccine.
Moreover, the WHO has clearly overstepped its mandate by publically criticizing Japan’s policy decision to withdraw active support for HPV vaccination, and by mischaracterizing that decision as being based on “weak evidence…that can result in real harm”. This attempt to coerce Japan, in the public arena, into adopting a fundamentally flawed and misguided vaccination policy goes against the very fundamentals of national health policy-making-;namely that appropriate preventive measures should be established by each individual country taking into account the state of disease prevalence, hygienic environment, education, and economic status in that country.
Refutation of the Committee’s statement is detailed in the following document with respect to AE reporting, data collection and analysis, composition of the National Expert Committee, the Genetic basis of autoimmunity, and correct understanding of relative risk reduction (RRR) versus actual risk reduction (ARR).
Medwatcher Japan strongly urges the members of GACVS to refrain from making coercive statements about Japan’s national health policy-making and to reconsider the safety of HPV vaccines after actually conducting their own investigation into the symptoms following HPV vaccination. (see original article here) (read the entire complaint here)
Here is an excerpt from the GAVCS Statement on Safety of HPV vaccines, issued 17 December 2015 to which Medwatcher Japan was responding:
The circumstances in Japan, where the occurrence of chronic pain and other symptoms in some vaccine recipients has led to suspension of the proactive recommendation for routine use of vaccine in the national immunization program, warrants additional comment. Review of clinical data by the national expert committee led to a conclusion that symptoms were not related to the vaccine, but it has not been possible to reach consensus to resume HPV vaccination. As a result, young women are being left vulnerable to HPV-related cancers that otherwise could be prevented. As GACVS has noted previously, policy decisions based on weak evidence, leading to lack of use of safe and effective vaccines, can result in real harm5. (Read the entire statement here.)
Theoretically, this battle could go on indefinitely. What is anyone supposed to believe when health authorities say one thing and the evidence in front of your face indicates something entirely different? This is exactly the situation parents throughout Japan, and the rest of the world for that matter, are faced with. It is no different for the medical professionals who are trying to treat all of the mysterious new medical conditions appearing after HPV vaccine administration. The evidence in front of their face every day does not support what the vaccine stakeholders are telling everyone.
What now?
First, everyone must understand science is a process by which knowledge is gained using observation, identification, description, experimental investigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena. Science is an evolutionary process, never a settled issue.
Second, everyone has to remember families are suffering. Thousands of children are experiencing debilitating new medical conditions no one seems to be able to explain. They deserve honest medical assessment and appropriate medical treatments regardless of what the ultimate cause is determined to be.
Third, the longer health authorities ignore the problem the less trust people have in the agencies they represent. This issue needs resolution. Families will not tolerate years of battling the details in the press. They need help now.
Fourth, it is painfully obvious health authorities are doing little to maintain or restore public trust.
Time for political representatives to step up?
Medwatcher Japan is an organization of consumer advocates, medical, legal and scientific experts dedicated to monitoring and preventing drug-induced disasters. By bringing the issue out in the open, they have made the first step toward avoiding what could very well turn out to be a huge drug-induced disaster.
Now it is time for politicians to take the lead. After all, they have been elected to protect and serve those who put them in office. Will they take any of the following steps to help solve the problem?
- Hold open public scientific debates between scientists/medical professionals representing the manufacturers of HPV vaccines and scientific/medical professionals concerned about the safety, efficacy or need for HPV vaccines.
- Establish independent scientific and/or medical teams to investigate any unresolved concerns arising from said debates.
- Establish medical teams to thoroughly examine anyone with new medical conditions after HPV vaccine administration.
- Establish medical teams to develop successful treatment protocols for those with new medical conditions.
The time for pretending there is no problem is long past. If concrete actions are not taken soon all hope of restoring the public’s faith in national and international health authorities will be gone forever.
Combating Vaccine Extremism in America#android#iPad#retweet
By Barbara Loe Fisher
2016 will be my 34th year as a vaccine safety and human rights activist.1 For more than 20 years I have been warning that the day would come when vaccine extremists and profiteers would move to legally force Americans to buy and use all government mandated vaccines and punish those who refuse.23 Still, it was a shock to see it happen in California this year,4 even as I know that preparations are being made by vaccine extremists to attack the religious and conscientious belief vaccine exemptions in more states next year.5 6
But knowing and predicting what will happen is very different from watching it actually happen.
Born in Minnesota to a mother, who was a nurse, and a father, who fought on the beach at Anzio and then re-enlisted in the Army after returning from World War II,7 I was raised with a deep respect for the values and beliefs upon which this Republic was founded and for the natural rights and principles of democratic government outlined in the U.S. Constitution.8 Like so many others who are grateful for freedom of thought and religion in this country, my abiding faith in a Creator of the natural order sustains me during my life’s journey and I believe Americans will not give up the natural rights and cultural values that define who we are as a nation without a fight.
Earlier this year, when vaccine extremists and profiteers used a few cases of measles at Disneyland to attack freedom of speech, thought, religious belief and assembly,9 my heart sank…
My Children are Vaccine-Damaged; are Yours?#android#iPad#retweet
by Michelle Goldstein
I was raised like most Americans. Doctors were highly respected in my parents’ home and their authority on health matters was not questioned. My parents followed their physicians’ advice on healthcare and I was no different when raising my own children.
I was careful to follow the health and dietary recommendations when my children were young and I believed that vaccines would keep my children safe from disease. In fact, I believed wholeheartedly that the more vaccines we had, the better protected my family would be. Out of love, I gave myself and my children every new vaccine available. I consulted with our physicians and with full trust followed their advice.
The Vaccine That Woke Me Up To Vaccine Dangers
After consulting with my trusted obstetrician, who had delivered all three of my children, along with my pediatrician, I made the fateful decision to vaccinate my two daughters with the HPV vaccination series. Several months later, one child developed a serious case of the debilitating autoimmune disorder, Crohn’s disease, which robbed her of several years of her childhood. We continue to battle this ravaging disease.
It took many years and countless consultations with integrative, holistic physicians before I recognized the link between the HPV vaccination and my daughter’s illness. To be honest, there was only one holistic physician, who specialized in autism, who helped us make this connection. The many others, including a certified functional medicine doctor, failed to connect these two events.
I now believe wholeheartedly that the HPV vaccine and my daughter’s development of a life-threatening autoimmune disorder was no coincidence…
