Dear Member of Parliament, I wish to express my concern regarding potential for dangerous side effects resulting from the swine flu vaccinations of the Australian public. There have been no long term scientific studies, long term data collection is the foundation of any rigorous scientific endeavour. The latest news below shows that the statistics being used by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in the USA are incredibly over exaggerated and false. Between 83-97% (Florida, California, Alaska, Georgia), of all reported positive Swine Flu cases (used in CDC statistics), were in fact negative for H1N1 Swine Flu. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/10/21/cbsnews_investigates/main5404829.shtml?tag=cbsnewsLeadStoriesArea The new vaccine formulation produced by an Australian based company CSL Biotherapies contains thimerosal and beta-propiolactone, a potent cancer causing chemical. Beta propiolactone is a direct threat to laboratory workers preparing vaccine. Pharmaceutical companies worldwide are rushing to produce their vaccines against the current swine flu pandemic to fulfil the needs of the entire global community, no doubt taking advantage of fast-track approval and immunity from prosecution if serious side effects should come to light. (Prof. Joe Cummins, Institute of Science in Society http://www.i-sis.org.uk/CSLPandemicSwineFluVaccine.php) Please watch this introduction by the University Of Calgary (USA) to understand the effects of thimerosal which is 49% mercury ( How Mercury Destroys the Brain - University of Calgary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtFsy0rQsak ) A typical flu vaccine shot solution is 50,000 parts per billion of mercury. The EPA in the USA classifies any substance with more than 200 parts per billion as hazardous waste. (The EPA limit in drinking water is 2 parts per billion.) Thus, the mercury density in a vaccine is 25,000% higher than the level required to be considered hazardous waste. This is injected directly into the bloodstream of infants, children, expectant mothers and senior citizens. There is much talk amongst politicians, medical associations and the media with regards to making this swine flu vaccine mandatory. I do not consent to mandatory vaccination and I wish to point out that my right to do so is protected under informed consent laws relative to each Australian States criminal Acts. I am very informed as to the risk benefit ratio and the risks far out weigh the perceived benefits. With regards to the dangers of thimerosal, I would direct your attention to two poignant pieces of information and research by a real investigative journalist, Robert, F. Kennedy Jr. http://www.robertfkennedyjr.com/articles.html# Kennedy's sources and scientific research facts; http://www.robertfkennedyjr.com/docs/ThimerosalScandalFINAL.PDF Please watch an interview with Kennedy in which he describes the vaccine issue similar to Big tobacco and Big petroleum in the way drug companies mislead the public and twist the science...of course with help of the media too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi_tZ8puaAM You should also read another very well researched story about vaccination; Does the vaccine matter? Atlantic Monthly - http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200911/brownlee-h1n1 In reading this you will see how statistical data is plucked out of thin air...yet we believe the science to be bullet proof? One Australian news source, for example, states that even a mild swine flu epidemic could lead to the deaths of 1.4 million people and would reduce economic growth by nearly $5 trillion dollars ( http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,25392380-2,00.html ). This sounds like the outlandish cries of the pandemic bird-flu, when President Bush said two million Americans would die as a result of the bird flu! Where is the Bird Flu now? There is no pandemic in Australia or the Southern Hemisphere. Influenza rates in the temperate zones of the Southern Hemisphere have all returned to below baseline levels and very few detections of pandemic H1N1 2009 virus are being reported. http://www.who.int/csr/don/2009_10_16/en/index.html According to WHO statistics, as of 11 October 2009, worldwide there have been more than 399232 laboratory confirmed cases of pandemic influenza H1N1 2009 and over 4735 deaths reported to WHO But these statistics are not factual. Newly developed rRT-PCR "rapid" testing method gives only a "presumptive positive" rather than a "definitive positive" result for H1N1 influenza, and is only accurate to 90%. This then reduces the WHO statistics to 4261 deaths. http://www.smh.com.au/national/swine-flu-test-results-are-unreliable-who-warns-20090610-c2dl.html Many doctors are diagnosing any influenza or pneumonia as Swine flu, without the appropriate tests. Hence this leads to more false data. The US Centre for disease control actually admit that their new swine flu surveillance protocols take into account all influenza and pneumonia-associated hospitalizations and deaths and not just those due to 2009 H1N1. http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/reportingqa.htm Compared to seasonal flu, the statistics so far do not constitute a pandemic let alone justify mandatory mass vaccination of populations around the globe with a vaccine that will have dangerous side effects and little proof of efficacy. Approximately 36 thousand Americans die from seasonal flu every year, 200 thousand are hospitalised. Between 250 - 500 thousand people die from seasonal flu world wide, also resulting in three to five million cases of severe illness. http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs211/en The world wide 2185 deaths from H1N1 virus, does not constitute a pandemic yet alone grounds to begin mandatory vaccination of the Australian public. Just a couple of months ago, scientists concluded that the 1918 flu pandemic that killed between 50-100 million people worldwide in a matter of 18 months -- which all these worst case scenarios are built upon -- was NOT due to the flu itself! http://www.reuters.com/article/scienceNews/idUSTRE5146PD20090205?feedType=RSS&feedName=scienceNews&sp=true Tami Flu, used against seasonal flu, does not work effectively and is not a safe drug. In fact it is not even a vaccine, it is an anti-viral and meant to be administered once someone is infected. It is not a vaccine or a preventative but rather a treatment. Serious side effects include convulsions, delirium or delusions, and 12 deaths in children and teens as a result of neuropsychiatric problems and brain infections Japan actually banned Tami flu for children in 2007. http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2005-11-19-tamiflu_x.htm In 2007, the FDA in the USA finally began investigating some 1,800 adverse event reports related to the drug. http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2007-11-25-tamiflu-brain_N.htm In fact the Tami Flu anti viral injection has been found to be almost useless http://www.ahrp.org/cms/content/view/397/27 The risk and dangers compared to perceived benefits of Tami flu are great. Recently a confidential letter from the United Kingdom Health Protection Agency was sent to about 600 neurologists alerting them to watch for an increase in Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) as a result of the swine flu vaccination. GBS can be fatal as it attacks the nerve lining, causing paralysis and suffocation – as those affected are unable to breath. The UK Daily Mail reported on the July 29 letter and pointed to a similar U.S. swine flu vaccination used in 1976 when: * "More people died from the vaccination than from swine flu (25 deaths); * 500 cases of GBS were detected; * the vaccine may have increased the risk of contracting GBS by eight times; * the vaccine was withdrawn after just 10 weeks when the link with GBS became clear; * The U.S. government was forced to pay out 1.3 million dollars to those affected." So, instead of giving warnings to the people who'll be vaccinated, secret letters were sent to neurologists to keep track of the number of human guinea pigs who contract the dreadful GBS without knowing the risk. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1206807/Swine-flu-jab-link-killer-nerve-disease-Leaked-letter-reveals-concern-neurologists-25-deaths-America.html#ixzz0OqsdiuaX The dangers of using live attenuated viruses in vaccinations can also lead to an out break in flu, just exactly the opposite of what the vaccine was made for. It can actually spread the virus rather than cure it. The vaccine time below helps illustrates my points. Vaccine history • In the USA in 1960, two virologists discovered that both polio vaccines were contaminated with the SV 40 virus which causes cancer in animals as well as changes in human cell tissue cultures. Millions of children had been injected with these vaccines. (Med Jnl of Australia 17/3/1973 p555) • In 1871-2, England, with 98% of the population aged between 2 and 50 vaccinated against smallpox, it experienced its worst ever smallpox outbreak with 45,000 deaths. During the same period in Germany, with a vaccination rate of 96%, there were over 125,000 deaths from smallpox. (The Hadwen Documents, http://www.soilandhealth.org/02/0201hyglibcat/020119hadwin/020119hadwin.toc.html ) • In Germany, compulsory mass vaccination against diphtheria commenced in 1940 and by 1945 diphtheria cases were up from 40,000 to 250,000. (Don't Get Stuck, Hannah Allen) • In 1967, Ghana was declared measles free by the World Health Organisation after 96% of its population was vaccinated. In 1972, Ghana experienced one of its worst measles outbreaks with its highest ever mortality rate. (Dr H Albonico, MMR Vaccine Campaign in Switzerland, March 1990) • In 1977, Dr Jonas Salk who developed the first polio vaccine, testified along with other scientists, that mass inoculation against polio was the cause of most polio cases throughout the USA since 1961. (Science 4/4/77 "Abstracts" ) • In the UK between 1970 and 1990, over 200,000 cases of whooping cough occurred in fully vaccinated children. (Community Disease Surveillance Centre, UK) • In the 1970's a tuberculosis vaccine trial in India involving 260,000 people revealed that more cases of TB occurred in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated. (The Lancet 12/1/80 p73) In 1976 mass vaccination of Swine flu began in the USA. Within a few months, claims totalling $1.3 billion had been filed by victims who had suffered paralysis from the vaccine. The vaccine was also blamed for 25 deaths. However, several hundred people developed crippling Guillain-Barré Syndrome after they were injected with the swine flu vaccine. Even healthy 20-year-olds ended up as paraplegics. And the swine flu pandemic itself? It never materialized. ( http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/04/29/Swine-Flu.aspx ) • In 1978, a survey of 30 States in the US revealed that more than half of the children who contracted measles had been adequately vaccinated. (The People's Doctor, Dr R Mendelsohn) • The February 1981 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association found that 90% of obstetricians and 66% of paediatricians refused to take the rubella vaccine. • In 1979, Sweden abandoned the whooping cough vaccine due to its ineffectiveness. Out of 5,140 cases in 1978, it was found that 84% had been vaccinated three times! (BMJ 283:696-697, 1981) • In the USA, the cost of a single DPT shot had risen from 11 cents in 1982 to $11.40 in 1987. The manufacturers of the vaccine were putting aside $8 per shot to cover legal costs and damages they were paying out to parents of brain damaged children and children who died after vaccination. (The Vine, Issue 7, January 1994, Nambour, Qld) Please do not introduce mandatory vaccination upon the Australian people. Yours sincerely
