Blood Donations are Potential Biohazard from Those Vaccinated with Gardasil
Conclusion It is the responsibility of health authorities to present evidence that blood donation from Gardasil vaccinated is safe for the recipients. If the authorities do not do this they may well have blood on their hands, possibly a tragic pun.     References 1. http://sanevax.org/sane-vax-inc-announces-the-discovery-of-viral-hpv-dna-contaminant-in-gardasil/ 2. http://sanevax.org/sane-vax-inc-discovers-potential-bio-hazard… 3. http://sanevax.org/breaking-news-gardasil-hpv-dna-discovered-in-post-mortem-samples/ 4. http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Blood-donation/Pages/What-is-it-used-for.aspx 5. http://www.gs...

These Weird New Tricks Are Being Used to Vaccinate Your Child
Conclusion Let’s face it – vaccinations are big business. Wherever we go or whatever we do, the pharmaceutical industries have arrived there first with their vaccination propaganda. Whether we believe in vaccination or not, the majority of us would likely agree that vaccinations are probably the most advertised commodity on our planet. Year in and year out we are faced with ads for the flu vaccine, the HPV vaccine and the MMR. Ads appear on billboards, in our stores, in magazines and at the movies. The pharmaceutical industries and our governments have even stooped to an all-time low by peddling their wares to ...

The Quacktitioner Royal is a threat to constitutional government and to the health of the nation
This article has appeared, in nearly identical form, on the UK Conversation . You can leave comments there or here. The modern major-general A constitutional monarch is purely ceremonial and plays no part in politics.  Well actually in the UK it isn’t quite as simple as that. The first problem is that we have no constitution.  Things haven’t changed much since the 19th century when Walter Bagehot said "the Sovereign has, under a constitutional monarchy… three rights—the right to be consulted, the right to encourage, the right to warn." These are not inconsiderable power...

This “Free” Vaccine Can Cause Brain Damage and Death — Propaganda from Authorities Promises Protection
Conclusion It is quite typical for mass media to be biased, incomplete, and uninformed when reporting on the subject of vaccinations. Even the editorial section of major newspapers are often one-sided in their reporting, failing to print opposing viewpoints to the widespread vaccination propaganda. Unless individuals do their own research, they will be victims of the continued media propaganda and scare tactics used to promote vaccinations. Once toxins are unnaturally injected into the bloodstream, the known and unknown damage cannot be easily undone. To Learn More For more information about the myths surrounding whooping ...

These Tricks Are Played to Get You to Vaccinate Your Child
Conclusion Despite the fact that study after study confirms that vaccinated children are no more protected than their unvaccinated peers, governments from around the world, hand-in-hand with Big Pharma and the medical professionals, keep coming up with more elaborate ways to force parents into vaccinating their children. I find it very sad that governments are so keen to boost vaccination targets that they are denying parents the ability to earn a livelihood by denying their children’s admittance into day care. This seems to me to be over the top and completely unnecessary. How do governments expect parents to be abl...

WHO Reluctant to Suspend Vaccine After 26 Children Die in the Developing World
Conclusion It has become second nature for the likes of WHO and UNICEF to offer free trial and banned vaccinations to the poor and vulnerable populations in the developing world. These are God’s children, too, and they are very precious. They are not lab rats or guinea pigs to be tested at leisure. They are like any other children; they have brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles and grandparents who love them dearly. Their innocent parents believe the propaganda being fed to them by the likes of UNICEF. They believe that these vaccines are safe and will protect their precious babies. Instead, their child...

The Sudden Death of Your Child After Vaccination May Be Written Off by Researchers, Here’s How…
Conclusion SIDS has been occurring since long before vaccination was invented. [17]  As records of its incidence were not kept until relatively recently, it is not possible to know whether the rate of SIDS in modern times is different to what it was in the distant past. To gain more insight into the distressing phenomenon of SIDS, blood sugar levels at the time of death should be assessed in every SIDS autopsy, and every vaccine that is recommended for infants should be tested to find out whether it causes blood sugar levels to drop at any time after vaccination.   References 1.

The British Pharmacological Society and the MHRA don’t help the cause of honest science. They hinder it.
Jump to follow-up The bulletin of the British Pharmacological Society, Pharmacology Matters, declined to publish the following article. Sadly the Society seems to be more interested in "reputation management" than in truth. Luckily, it is not easy to suppress criticism these days. A version of the article has appeared in Research Fortnight where it will be seen by far more people than it would have been in Pharmacology Matters. This is the original version that I submitted to them. They would not allow me to quote Lewis’s comment (apropos of the sale of homeopathic meningitis vaccine) “Children wil...

Bill Gates Continues ‘God’s Work’, Third World Vaccine Workers Shot Dead
CONCLUSION It appears that Mr. Gates will go to any lengths to vaccinate the world, even if the world makes it very clear that they do not want his vaccines. Rather than vaccinating more children, if he was such a humanitarian, why has he allowed vulnerable, sick children to be dumped in the middle of nowhere to die? Surely the world would applaud him far more loudly if he spent his millions making sure that any vaccine casualties were sufficiently cared for.   References 1. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/bill-gates/9812672/… 2. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/dec/18/polio… 3. http://www.guardi...
