Your comments about this article:
Squalene, the adjuvant in some of the new AH1N1 vaccines (attached to aluminium - another potent neurotoxin) is believed by many to be one of the major contributing factors to Gulf War Syndrome.
No, these vaccines are NOT safe and they have NOT been tested.
Here in Australia, we have already seen spontaneous abortions and severe anaphylactic shock being reported after the vaccine. Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) can take a little longer though there has been one report of paralysis following the new vaccine - it's too early to know yet whether this is GBS or another reaction.
Oh, and one other thing: before using a Baxter Labs vaccine, the government should be urged to test it for contamination with other unrelated viruses. This company has an unfortunate history of issuing contaminated vaccines - the last time was as recently as February 2009.
All this risk is being taken to try and prevent a flu that is milder than normal seasonal flu. For this, we will most likely see a repeat of the US tragedy of 1976 where thousands more people died and were permanently injured by the shot than by the illness.
As for thimerosal, you can request thimerosal-free vaccine. Or you can just accept that your average tuna sandwich has more mercury than the thimerosal contained in one dose of vaccine and deal.
@shotinfo, you're going to need to provide a link to the claim about spontaneous abortions. Health officials here are worried that pregnant women will be scared by people like you into not getting the vaccine. Here in the States, many pregnant women have died from H1N1.
From: http://www.autismtruth.org/Archived/people_092004.html
The FACT is that these shots have never been tested for their safety or efficacy in pregnancy. It states that very clearly on the package insert so your claims are totally baseless. Women are told not to have a glass of wine or take an aspirin during pregnancy but it's perfectly safe to inject themselves with viruses, bacteria, mercury, squalene and other toxins? I don't think so!
Exactly, as of Oct. 13, 2009, 28 pregnant women have died from H1N1. That's not many, but it is too many for a vaccine that's supposed to save lives. I believe the operative word among the H1N1 producers is "collateral damage." Are we supposed to become used to mandated vaccines that will continue to do more harm than good?
From this article, it's obvious that one of the dangerous ingredients, thimerisol, is not needed. I just heard an interview on ABC news (10-08-09) Dr. Denese Jamison of the CDC, who made it perfectly clear that the mercury is there to make the vaccine cheaper to purchase--shelf life and preservative/multiple use viles. FOLLOW THE MONEY, HONEY!
I thought H1N1 was the virus, so the question is have 28 pregnant women died from the virus or from the vaccine?
And, for what it's worth. I also thought that having the vaccine was voluntary. To me that means that if, after a conversation with your doctor, you are unhappy with the risks in your own personal situation you can choose not to have the vaccine.
Or have we in the western world lost the ability to make informed choices?
I'm not going to chase down the source about the mercury, but I've read it multiple places. If you don't want thimerosal in your vaccine, request one without it.
EDIT: here is a link to a web page for pregnant women, addressing H1N1 vaccine concerns including the one about thimerosal/mercury/tuna sandwiches.
As for the pregnant woman who unfortunately miscarried after receiving the vaccine, I also read an article about those kinds of concerns. It is a problem with a widely distributed vaccine that a certain number of people are going to get ill with something or miscarry or whatever soon after receiving a vaccine, whatever it is. Most of these people would have had this happen without the vaccine. But other people are going to pass around stories about how the vaccine "caused" this outcome.
EDIT: here is a link to a story about tracking the flu's side effects and safety, including comments about coincidental health events that people will claim are related to the vaccine, but are not.
If your claim is legitimate, shotinfo, you will easily be able to find a link to a reputable news source about it. Sorry, but "I got an e-mail that somebody had a miscarriage after the flu shot, what else could be to blame?" doesn't cut it.
Pregnant women should get the H1N1 vaccine because during the course of their pregnancy, they are immunocompromised and less able than other people in their age range to fight the flu. In advanced pregnancy, their lung capacity is also decreased, due to the size of the fetus. The vaccine is considered safe for the fetus. H1N1 flu (the illness) is not safe for the fetus or its mother. Pregnant women are normally advised NOT to get the seasonal flu vaccine, but the seasonal flu is generally not especially dangerous to pregnant women. The H1N1 flu can be fatal.
Think about it: according to the CDC, the seasonal flu kills some 36 000 people each year in America alone, yet the WHO, which appears to be a front for pharmaceutical companies and depopulation interests, declared a highest level (stage 6) pandemic on the basis of a few hundred deaths world-wide, from a new type of flu which is reportedly less deadly than the seasonal flu!
By an amazing coincidence, the pandemic was declared shortly before the useless and dangerous drug Tamiflu governments all over the world involved in this swindle had purchased at great tax-payer expense for their citizens, was due to expire!
While the mainstream media was doing a brilliant snow job by issuing streams of WHO-inspired propaganda about this so-called "swine flu" "pandemic", governments now proceeded as if on cue to squander billions more of tax-payer money on orders of virtually untested, useless and dangerous mercury and squalene-containing vaccines for all their citizens, regardless of whether these vaccines were safe or even needed.
In the USA, Massachussets introduced legislation to make the vaccine mandatory under threat of jail and a $1000 fine for each day of avoiding the vaccine. US health professionals were also told that taking the shot is mandatory for them, although this is now being contested in court.
In Europe, Austrian journalist Jane Burgermeister has filed criminal charges in Austria, Switzerland and also the USA, against the WHO, the CDC, vaccine manufacturers and some government figures for conspiring against the public good by implementing a genocidal agenda involving the swine flu vaccination programme.

Vaccination goes back over 200 years. It started with Edward Jenner's barbaric cowpox vaccine, which he hoped would protect people against smallpox. It didn't. To save face, the medical authorities proclaimed vaccination a triumph of medical science and that the smallpox vaccine had eradicated the disease, when it had in fact declined of its own accord.
Over the past two centuries, vaccination developed into the multi-billion dollar global industry it is today, which is basically an organised criminal enterprise peddling its toxic injections under the guise of disease prevention.
Today, vaccination serves three purposes:
1. Vaccination is a money making-racket
2. Vaccination is used to promote illnesses and disorders,
the treatment of which is a huge source of income for the
medical-pharmaceuticl establishment (80% of asthma cases are e.g. vaccine-related)
3. Vaccination is used for population control and
reduction purposes.
I am now convinced that The Local is attracting people to TT who have an agenda and would not otherwise find us to post their nonsense. Not good, Editor Bob.
By the way, I think I have H1N1 as I type. I've been developing a cold for the past couple of days, and now have a fever as of last night. It's not that bad, but I hope my husband and daughter don't get it. (I was not planning to get the H1N1 vaccine, since I'm not in the high-priority age range, but was going to get it for my young daughter, if she can manage to get the vaccine before getting the flu.)
You seem very informed. If the vaccine is safe for fetuses. Why is not safe for children up to 12 months?
And are you saying that you get the same reaction either by eating mercury (tuna sandwich) or getting it straight into your blood through a needle?
Thank you so much!
