Gardasil® and Other Deadly Scams
News and views on the forced-vaccination front
From our friends at Vaccination Choice
Editor's Note: I'm pulling this guest column from the national publication of NVIC—National Vaccination Information Center. To view the entire newsletter, go to the site.
Note, the newsletter is actually the October issue, not September.
Right up front, I want to plug this excellent BrasscheckTV contribution to the debate: Gardasil: Chemical weapon of the elite—an excellent story from Infowars Nightly News, which I also heartily endorse as the medium of the Revolution.
Today on The Doctors (TV Show)
Barbara Loe Fisher will appear on "The Doctors" (CBS-TV) in a segment entitled "Which Side Are You On?" The segment will feature a discussion about doctors declining to treat patients, who do not follow doctor's orders, including pediatrician's dismissing families from their practices if parents refuse one or more vaccines for their children or want to use an "alternative" vaccination schedule. Includes a lively debate among "The Doctors" and health advocate Jillian Michaels about which side they are on in the tug of war between doctors and parents about what should be done when parents and doctors disagree about vaccination.

October 2011: The Good & Bad News
The last half of 2011 brought good news and bad news for the vaccine safety and informed consent movement. The good news is that more Americans than ever before know that vaccines are not safe and effective for everyone and even the scientific community are beginning to acknowledge that fact.
The bad news is that the wealthy and powerful Pharma/Medical lobby is in the process of persuading state legislators - despite strong opposition from parents and enlightened health care professionals - to force vaccination and strip parents of the legal right to make medical decisions, including vaccination decisions, for their children. Big drug corporations and medical trade associations are behind the unprecedented assault on informed consent rights in America. What happened in the last half of 2011 is the final wake-up call for Americans, who are, day by day, losing their right to make voluntary vaccination choices for themselves and their children.
CA Governor Betrays Parents & Endangers Children
In a national press release on Oct. 10, NVIC criticized California Governor Jerry Brown for bowing to pressure from the pharmaceutical and medical trade lobby when he signed a controversial bill (AB499) into law that allows 12 year old children to be vaccinated without the knowledge or consent of their parents. The new law allows minor children as young as 12 years old to be given Gardasil and hepatitis B vaccine, as well as future vaccines sexually transmitted diseases without the informed consent of their parents.
NVIC Director of Advocacy, Dawn Richardson, who designed NVIC's online Advocacy Portal, worked with families in California to provide Governor Brown and the public with information about why the legislation violated parents' long held legal right to make medical decisions for their minor children. "Big Pharma lobbyists have been working behind the scenes in California, Washington and other states to take away parental rights and vaccine exemptions," she said, "and we expect they will go into other states in 2012 so it is important for everyone to sign up for the Advocacy Portal and help NVIC take a stand in those states."
The new CA law is a violation of vaccine safety provisions in the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act that mandated doctors and all vaccine providers give parents vaccine benefit and risk information before vaccination. It is estimated that it will cost the state of California millions of dollars to implement the new law.
Since its first public showing at the Dallas Film Festival on April 2, 2011, the new documentary film exploring both sides of the vaccine safety debate - The Greater Good - has generated a buzz in the film community and among vaccine educated families. The film has won the 2011 Amsterdam Film Festival Cinematic Vision Award and the Koroni Award, 2011 Sidewalk Moving Pictures Film Festival. Now, the long awaited national premiere of the movie is continuing this week (see schedule above) in Los Angeles and will premiere in New York City in November (more details posted on NVIC's Facebook page).
