first published at www.anhcampaign.org Measles is back! 1300 cases last year! Irrational behaviour by parents! And all because of the MMR scare, which has been categorically disproved. Balanced reporting? Definitely not. We only hear one side in this story, so what’s the other side? Read on to find out;
Millions of parents every year face a grave dilemma; should we give our child the usual vaccines and risk autism, or refuse them and risk meningitis and other complications, plus increasing pressure to vaccinate from the authorities? How to evaluate the evidence? Who can we trust? Government policy, in the UK and USA, is clear; all your children should have all the vaccines. If they don’t you may be prosecuted (New York), and they may be barred from school (UK). And year by year the list of vaccines just grows. Because vaccines are the new Pharma. While most of the big-earning drugs are nearing the end of their profit cycles, vaccines are just selling more and more; over $10 billion per annum worldwide, not a profit centre any company wants to abandon. |
The pharmaceutical multinationals not only have preferential access to government circles via lobbyists and other less transparent links; they are the ‘jewel in the crown’ of industry, so successful that governments dare not threaten them lest they take their jobs and taxes elsewhere. What should you do? Should you give your child the MMR? Should your daughter have the cervical cancer jab? Should you have the flu jab yourself? The first principle is that, in a democracy, it should be your choice. We used to be a democracy until recently, but now, in a Europe where the Lisbon Treaty is still being pushed through although whenever any country has voted on it they have rejected it, they talk about post-democracy. Post-democracy is a system where most policies and laws are made not by elected representatives voting according to the wishes of the electorate, but by regulations, establishing quangos, and presidential-style decrees that all bypass democracy. Where countries go to war despite the will of the people; where indeed the elections are not representative. And where compulsory vaccination, alongside compulsory medication of our children for their putative ADHD, is imposed against our will. And where nutrients that can provide cheap, safe and effective treatments for many problems are being outlawed on the basis of dodgy evidence. The second is that you should be provided with the information necessary to make an informed decision. |
