Measles vaccines kill more children than the measles… and it’s not even close

With all of the hysteria and fear-mongering about measles that’s sweeping mainstream media headlines these days, one might assume that children everywhere are dropping dead from this chickenpox-like infection. But according to official data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), not a single person has died while being infected with measles in more than 15 years.

On the other hand, it’s an undeniable fact that at least100 people have died as a consequence of receiving the MMR vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella, which we’ve all been told by government health authorities, is supposed to protect against measles.

As is now obvious to everyone who’s actually paying attention, the MMR vaccine is actually far more dangerous than measles itself, which back in the 1950s and 1960s was joked about in television shows like “The Brady Bunch” for being a harmless rite of passage from childhood into adulthood.

Researchers Warn Contact Lens Wearers Of Parasite That Gnaws Through Eyeballs

When did this start? People have been wearing contacts for decades and I have never heard of this before.
It's very bizarre for sure. It can permanently scar you eye within a week of catching it.

Researchers are warning about a dangerous parasite found in dust, as well as sea, pool and tap water, that could cause blindness to contact lens users.

The acanthamoeba parasite has the potential to gnaw through the eyeball of an exposed contact lens wearer, which results in blindness, the Belfast Telegraph reports.

The Centers for Disease Control refers to the ocular infection as “acanthamoeba keratitis” on its official website.

“[The parasite] is a microscopic, free-living [amoeba],

CDC says 10,000 at risk of hantavirus in Yosemite outbreak

Heads up kids,
If you know anybody that went to Yosemite this summer, make sure they see this.
The incubation period is up to six weeks

YOSEMITE
The virus starts out causing flu-like symptoms, including headache, fever, muscle ache, shortness of breath and cough, and can lead to severe breathing difficulties and death.

The incubation period for the virus is typically two to four weeks after exposure, the CDC said, with a range between a few days and six weeks. Just over a third of cases are fatal.

"Providers are reminded to consider the diagnosis of HPS in all persons presenting with clinically compatible illness and to ask about potential rodent exposure or if they had recently visited Yosemite National Park," the CDC said.

Although there is no cure for hantavirus, which has never been known to be transmitted between humans, treatment after early detection through blood tests can save lives.

"Early medical attention and diagnosis of hantavirus are critical," Yosemite superintendent

It's time to call the Health Dept on the TSA

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=231733


People, people, people, this is disgusting as well as unconscionable.
It can't be touted by more than one government agency and then just totally ignored by the TSA.
It's a god damned HEALTH violation! Not only is the crotch down there so is the anus.
Common sense says it's mandatory to change gloves have each individuals exposure.
I think I'm going to be absolutely sick from the stupidity!
Where the hell is the W.H.O. (World Health Organization) or the god damned Surgeon General?
We should have heard from them long ago on this infraction.
All these position that as taxpayer "WE" pay for and some how "THEY" forget to do the job "WE" pay them for.
And this is a WORLD WIDE occurrence!
Now, Think about it!
Haiti, CHOLERA!
Are they out of their FUCKIN MIND?


Martha Donahue in a commentary at Resistnet said she'd spent 30 years in the medical industry.

"For those of you who fly and opt for the 'pat down,' you need to demand the TSA thugs change their gloves. I've been watching on the news how they operate. People are being searched [with] dirty gloves ... gloves that have been in crotches, armpits, touching people who may be ill, people who pick their noses. Do you want those gloves touching you?

"These thugs are protecting themselves from you. You need to be protected from them," she wrote. "In a hospital, nursing home, in-home care, or even labs, that would never even be considered an option."

ABC reported one of its news employees documented how a TSA worker reached inside her underwear.

"The woman who checked me reached her hands inside my underwear and felt her way around," the ABC employee said in the network's report. "It was basically worse than going to the gynecologist. It was embarrassing. It was demeaning. It was inappropriate."

Asked today about the possibility of contamination being spread from one passenger to another on the gloves of TSA agents, a spokesman for the CDC bailed.

"Please contact the Dept of Homeland Security and/or TSA on this issue," the spokesman told WND.

But in its online writings, the CDC repeatedly makes clear the importance of maintaining clean hands to avoid such transmission of communicable and contagious afflictions.

Officials: Toll in Haiti's cholera outbreak now above 150

http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/10/21/haiti.cholera/index.html

The Prime Minister wants to determine where it came from.
Gee I wonder if it could be the over crowded refuge camps that they've had to live in for the last 9 months.
I'm surprised it hasn't happened sooner.
WHERE IN THE HELL IS THE AID THE WORLD PROMISED!
Every country has reneged on the money they pledged.
WHY?


On Friday, Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive called the cholera outbreak "unprecedented" and said authorities were working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to understand what happened.

"We have to determine ... where (the cholera) came from," he said.

Cholera is caused by a bacterial infection of the intestine and, in severe cases, is characterized by diarrhea, vomiting and leg cramps, according to the U.S.-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In such cases, rapid loss of body fluids can lead to dehydration and shock. "Without treatment, death can occur within hours," the agency says.

A person can get cholera by drinking water or eating food contaminated with the bacteria. During epidemics, the source of the contamination is often the feces of an infected person, and infections can spread rapidly in areas where there is poor sewage treatment and a lack of clean drinking water, according to the CDC.

"If the environmental conditions are not right, anybody who ingests that food or water can get ill," said Dr. William Schaffner, a professor

WHO to review its handling of H1N1 flu pandemic

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE5BL2ZT20100112

The WHO and the CDC, both lost their credibility from this one.
God help us if a pandemic really does occur, because no one will believe a thing they have to say now.
Obama committed America to a 4 billion dollar effort to handle it's onslaught.
Most of that money went into research, of what I'm not sure, since after month 1 the CDC was no longer counting how many people actually had contracted it.

The World Health Organization is to examine its handling of the H1N1 pandemic, the group said on Tuesday, after accusations by some politicians that it exaggerated the dangers of the virus under pressure from drug companies.

Did drug-resistant swine flu spread between teens

http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jnVhmInZ0cbrwEBAy8vNmZn9tzhAD9AKI5501

The little lies they feed you
To make you think they're way
A mutant strains insistence
When the anti-viral never worked any way


Health officials are reporting what may be the first instance of a Tamiflu-resistant swine flu virus spreading from one person to another.

It happened in July at a camp in western North Carolina, where two teenage girls — cabin mates — were diagnosed with the same drug-resistant strain of swine flu.

Tamiflu is one of two flu medicines that help against swine flu, and health officials have been closely watching for signs that the virus is mutating, making the drugs ineffective.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is aware of nine U.S. cases of Tamiflu-resistance since swine flu first appeared in April, but all the others were single cases. In this instance, there seemed to be a spread.

"That was the concerning thing about these cases

CDC Statement on Oseltamivir (Tamiflu®) Resistance and Antiviral Recommendations
For Immediate Release: January 9, 2009

On December 19, 2008, CDC issued interim guidance for health care professionals on the use of influenza antiviral medications this flu season. The guidance was issued in response to early data from a limited number of states indicating that a high proportion of influenza A (H1N1) viruses are resistant to the influenza antiviral medication oseltamivir (Tamiflu®). Worldwide, the proportion of H1N1 viruses that are resistant to oseltamivir has been increasing so this development is not surprising

First defense against swine flu - forget the numbers

http://www.reuters.com/article/GCA-S...56N3PQ20090724

What's up with the CDC no longer reporting flu cases? Rather odd behavior for being in the middle of this pandemic situation don't you think?
One can only suppose they want no proof for number correlations.
Just take the shot like a good citizen because we said so.

Schuchat said H1N1 was still circulating.

"We are continuing to see transmission here in the United States in places like summer camps, some military academies and similar settings where people from different parts of the country come together," she said.

"I think this is very unusual to have this much transmission of influenza during the (summer) and I think it's a testament to how susceptible people are to this virus."

TIP OF THE ICEBERG

The CDC said 43,771 cases of H1N1 influenza had been officially confirmed, with 302 deaths.

"But ... that's really just the tip of the iceberg," Schuchat said. "We believe there have been well over 1 million cases of the new H1N1 virus so far in the United States."

She said the CDC would no longer report cases and was working on better ways to estimate how many people had been infected.

Swine Flu May Be Human Error; WHO Probes Scientist’s Claim

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...r=worldwide #

Interesting that the CDC doesn't agree

The World Health Organization is investigating a claim by an Australian researcher that the swine flu virus circling the globe may have been created as a result of human error.

Adrian Gibbs, 75, who collaborated on research that led to the development of Roche Holding AG’s Tamiflu drug, said in an interview that he intends to publish a report suggesting the new strain may have accidentally evolved in eggs scientists use to grow viruses and drugmakers use to make vaccines. Gibbs said he came to his conclusion as part of an effort to trace the virus’s origins by analyzing its genetic blueprint.

The World Health Organization received the study last weekend and is reviewing it, Keiji Fukuda, the agency’s assistant director-general of health security and environment, said in an interview May 11. Gibbs, who has studied germ evolution for four decades, is one of the first scientists to analyze the genetic makeup of the virus that was identified three weeks ago in Mexico and threatens to touch off the first flu pandemic since 1968.

A virus that resulted from lab experimentation or vaccine production may indicate a greater need for security, Fukuda said. By pinpointing the source of the virus, scientists also may better understand the microbe’s potential for spreading and causing illness, Gibbs said.

Possible Mistake

“The sooner we get to grips with where it’s come from, the safer things might become,” Gibbs said by phone from Canberra yesterday. “It could be a mistake” that occurred at a vaccine production facility or the virus could have jumped from a pig to another mammal or a bird before reaching humans, he said.
