Foot and Mouth Disease at the AMA by: Mark Sircus Ac., OMD Medical News - January 28, 2004 On a current web page called 'Vaccine Anxiety,' posted to physicians, the AMA's online e-magazine starts with, "The individuals and organizations on a mission to sow the seeds of doubt about childhood immunizations may be weak on science but are savvy with (virtual) technology." It's always an interesting thing for a psychologist to watch how people and organizations cannot help but project their shadow side. In this case accusing these individuals and organizations of being weak on science. It's a sad thing to see such a successful and large organization like the AMA stooping to low blows when it comes to dealing with such important issues. It's also tragic to see in the projection that it is the AMA itself that is weak on science when it comes to childhood vaccinations. Certainly they show weakness when taking 'cheap' shots at serious people confronting a very serious subject. The editorial continued with talking about parents visiting "anti-vaccination sites that grossly misinterpret or distort the facts." In my reading of the FDA's, the CDC's and the AMA's sites it is the opposite that becomes apparent, anti-vaccination sites are full of information and contain positional support from many physicians around the globe who state specifically why they are so strongly against vaccinations. The government and medical sites are the ones who speak in terms of beliefs unsupported by solid information, evidence or science. There seems to be no backbone in their claims or requests for public trust in the area of childhood immunizations. The intelligent 'informed' consent of patients is essential and never more important than in the area of childhood vaccinations. This means that parents should be able to exercise the power of choice in choosing medical treatments without of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior forms of coercion. This is core of the Nuremberg Code. But rarely if ever will you see pro-vaccination organizations actually discuss the facts, instead they resort to evasive types of communications that call for blind belief and faith, not scientific interest and inquiry. The AMA's publication goes on to say, "No one would deny the anguish of a distraught parent trying to rationalize a child's profound illness or disability. But as of yet, no scientifically sound link has been uncovered to the claims being made." The AMA is putting more than its foot in its mouth. They are showing themselves to be a group that has given up on medical science and logical thought altogether. Worse they have closed their hearts and do not hear the scream of scores of parents of hurt children nor the brave declarations of doctors and nurses who have brought their complaints before governmental committees.A child can drop a ball and see the scientifically sound link between gravity, the earth and the ball but the federal government can pay out a billion dollars to parents of vaccine-damaged children and the authorities concede nothing about the dangers of vaccines. The ball has dropped but it's all a mystery to the AMA, the FDA and the CDC. Vaccines are so dangerous that insurance companies dumped the vaccine manufacturers a long time ago. But what do insurance companies know about science, risk and safety? Nothing if you believe in the protestations of the medical establishment. The AMA and all the rest will hide all damaging information and defame everyone to save the holy cash cows of the pharmaceutical industries. The large insurance carriers showed the world something important when they refused to cover vaccine manufacturers because they were killing and hurting too many children. They were the first ones to know and understand what was going on behind the medical curtains for they were paying through the nose. The AMA would have people believe that there is 'only' "a small inherent risk in immunization," and this is true if you include 'only' the chances of a child or adult dieing of the shots. If you include all the complications and collateral damages that all vaccine inserts warn of, everything from seizures to asthma, allergies, immune system deterioration, arthritis and a host of problems too numerous to mention, the risks are not covered by their statement "only small inherent risks." The AMA believes that "vaccines have more than proven their worth, it is hard to believe that they should require defending." What is hard to believe is that these people or those who work for them believe in such nonsense. They are trying to put vaccines above question when many in their own ranks seriously challenge not only their worth, but cry out in anguish for the outright suffering of many thousands of children and adults who have their lives totally ruined from something that "works so well." The truth seems to be closer to "vaccines have more than proven their danger and little scientific evidence exists for their efficacy." The AMA does advise, "All physicians who count children among their patients should be prepared more than ever to counsel parents about the facts of childhood vaccination." But no physician is going to tell parents what is actually in the vaccines for everyone knows if you tell people that there are poisons deliberately put in like mercury, aluminium, formaldehyde, and other toxic compounds, parents would run for the hills. The physicians themselves do not know the numbers of vaccine dead and injured for the FDA, CDC, AMA, and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) will not tell them. For that information they and parents have to go to these anti-vaccination sites or to the government themselves under the freedom of information act. "There is a small inherent risk in immunization, but it is vastly outweighed by the enormous, literally lifesaving, positive effects of this proven public health strategy," is the official line of not only the AMA but of all public health officials around the world. Saying it is so does not make it so and rarely if ever will you read any medical or health organization back up this statement with solid evidence. What you will hear is E. Stephen Edwards, MD, President of the AAP, saying on his webpage, "Pediatricians are your partners in the important job of keeping your child healthy...and we take that partnership very seriously. That's why we encourage you to have your child immunized against deadly, preventable diseases." The AAP also says, "When vaccines containing thimerosal have been administered in the recommended doses, allergic type reactions (hives, shock) have been noted on rare occasions. No other harmful effects have been reported." It is really incredibly hard to believe that these words were on the AAP's website, one would hope they would take them down for how long can such a clear and obvious lie stand? There is in fact no proof or science to sustain statements about vaccine safety or effectiveness. There is only these people's empty words that are criminal in act and intent for not only do these words lead to death and suffering they also break the Nuremberg Code for they mislead, deceive, over reach, misinform, trick, con and defraud; delivering a form of verbal coercion that denies people important information upon which intelligent choice depends. Guylaine Lanctot, M.D. asks a pertinent question, "What is the objective of the world authorities in destroying people's health, both in industrialized countries and in the Third World? It is always difficult to presume the intentions of others, particularly when one is not close to them. And this is true in this instance. But there are certainly advantages for someone, somewhere, to so doggedly keep-up the campaign for vaccinations, by any and all means possible. They must profit someone, somewhere. One thing is certain, they are not to our advantage." Editor's Comment; "Parents are among the millions who now turn to the Internet for health information. An Internet search to learn about the risks and benefits of vaccination for their children may well take those parents to a Web site that has well-reasoned, scientifically grounded information. Unfortunately, surfing the Internet -- a sea in which all assertions float equally -- may just as easily land those parents at anti-vaccination sites that grossly misinterpret or distort the facts, and even offer advice on how to dodge the mandatory immunization laws that play a vital role in protecting the public's health." emphases added This is a typical elitist view that ordinary people like you and I cannot be trusted to consider all the available facts and arrive at the proper conclusion. The trick is to understand that their definition of the words "proper conclusion" differs dramatically from yours and mine, or any dictionary. I have said that every deceiver must tell the truth. It is unavoidable. They state that some websites present "well-reasoned, scientifically grounded information", while others present misinterpreted or distorted facts. They admit that "all assertions float equally" on the Internet. Once you see what the truth is, it's relatively easy the understand the lie. Ask yourself; What are the anti-vaccine people selling that compares with the hugh revenues of the vaccine manufacturers? Who has the real incentive to lie? Study The Deceiver's Toolkit to understand the duplicitous meaning of words. The words frequently speak the truth, but the way they are strung together, conveys the lie. Link to 'Vaccine Anxiety,' |
