Utah Health Official Bans Gardasil Vaccine

The Salt Lake Tribune is reporting today that the physician who directs Utah's Southwest Public Department of Health has decided to exclude the Gardasil HPV vaccine in public health clinics. Given the fact that national talk show host Katie Couric just aired a program this week calling Gradasil "controversial," for which she was widely criticized and attacked by mainstream media who were claiming there was "no controversy" regarding Gardasil, this story breaking in Utah today suggests that even in the U.S., physician support for Gardasil is not as unanimous as the mainstream media would like you to believe. And this is not even "new" news in Utah, as "The decision to exclude the vaccine from its public health clinics in Beaver, Iron, Garfield, Kane and Washington counties was made years ago...." Dr. David Blodgett, the director of the Department of Health gave the reasons why they are not stocking the controversial Gardasil vaccine in the Salt Lake Tribune: "The backlash and sentiment against it was strong enough that there’s no reason to go there. No one wants it and it’s too expensive when we’re not funded to provide it." Blodgett cites other problems with Gardasil, namely that it was fast-tracked through the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and a belief that its benefits were oversold by drug maker Merck. "The science wasn’t good... We had physicians in our community arguing that we not make it available," said Blodgett. So this is not a lone doctor crusader expressing doubts about Gardasil, but a reflection of many physicians in the community.

Mainstream Media Attacks Katie Couric for Publishing Truth on Gardasil Vaccine

Popular news broadcaster Katie Couric interviewed the mother of a young lady who died after receiving the Gardasil vaccine, as well as one of the lead doctors who conducted clinical trials for Merck on her day-time talk show Wednesday December 4th. She also interviewed another mother and daughter who have been affected by the vaccine. That a major network allowed something negative about vaccines to be aired is quite rare. If you visit the Katie Couric website to read about the show, however, you will find nothing in print that is negative regarding the Gardasil vaccine, but instead you will find an article by a physician recommending the vaccine, as well as links to the CDC which of course is pro-vaccine. The issues communicated in the show regarding the Gardasil vaccine, which are readily available online, are probably less significant than how the mainstream media responded to the show. Attacks on Katie Couric for talking to a parent of a child who died from vaccine injuries, and a physician who was involved in bringing the vaccine to market, clearly shows the mainstream media bias and censorship that still exists regarding vaccines. If you read the hit pieces being written against Katie Couric today, you would have to assume that she was standing up for mass murders. Yet, all Couric did was to ask a simple question: Is the HPV vaccine safe? According to Michael Hiltzik of the LA Times, "Merely to ask the questions is to validate them." The topic of vaccines are exempt from regular investigative journalism, and if you ask the wrong questions, expect to be attacked just for asking the question. The public does not deserve such information – journalists know better.

The Vaccine Bubble

Michael Belkin is an extremely gifted vaccine advocate, and one of the co-authors of the book we feature below: Vaccine Epidemic. Michael lost his first child when she died at 5 weeks old after receiving the Hepatitis B vaccine. He is a gifted musician and writes his own music warning people about the dangers of vaccines which can be heard at TheRefusers.com, where he also runs a very successful and popular blog. But Michael's "day job" is earning a living from financial counseling. His advice is highly sought after, and he has appeared and been interviewed on many of the financial networks. Therefore, if there is one person who can clearly articulate the business side of vaccine marketing, that person would be Michael Belkin. Michael coined the term "Vaccine Bubble," and in this article he clearly explains why the vaccine market parallels so many other false markets that were propped up by unsound economic principles, particularly government intervention that prevents a normal free market financial swings based on consumer demand. Could the vaccine bubble, and along with it the entire U.S. healthcare system, be the biggest financial bubble our country has ever seen? Is it doomed to fail?

Truth In Media: Vaccine Court and Autism Cover-up Exposed

Emmy Award winning journalist Ben Swann covers the vaccine-autism cover-up in the U.S. in the best 10 minute video I have ever seen on the subject. Are we beginning to see cracks in the national mainstream media's censorship on the vaccine issue? You will want to watch the entire 10 and a half minutes of this brilliantly produced piece of investigative journalism, as he clearly explains the facts of how the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (Vaccine Court) works, and how the government can get away with claiming that vaccines do not cause autism.

Gardasil Vaccine Caused ITP Bleeding Disorder and Changed Young Woman’s Life Forever

In this video report that was broadcast on a local NBC channel is another example of where the mainstream media, at least in local markets, are beginning to publish the other side of the vaccine story. Here is a tragic story of one family's daughter who received the Gardasil HPV vaccine with terrible consequences. She developed Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP), an auto immune bleeding disorder in which the immune system destroys platelets which are necessary for normal blood clotting. While doctors do not want to blame the vaccine, her father is a biology teacher and has no doubts that the vaccine is what has changed the life of their daughter forever.

Are UNICEF Live Polio Vaccines Causing Polio Among Syrians? 1.7 Billion Polio Vaccines Purchased by UNICEF

Syria had no recorded cases of polio since 1999, but in November 2012 UNICEF began giving the live oral polio vaccine to over 2 million children in Syria, in spite of the fact that this dangerous vaccine sheds the live virus and causes cases of polio and paralysis. Now, cases of polio are showing up in Syria, and the response is to vaccinate even more children with the same dangerous live vaccine, targeting over 20 million children under the age of five. In spite of calls from doctors, health officials, and researchers worldwide to eliminate the live oral polio vaccine, the United Nations through its UNICEF program purchased 1.7 BILLION doses of the vaccine this year with taxpayer funds from member nations, the United States being the largest contributor.

Whooping Cough Vaccine Failure Exposed in Mainstream Media

Just this week, the New York Times published an article stating that the problem of surging whooping cough cases has more to do with flaws in the current vaccines than with parents' resistance. Could the truth about vaccines finally be going mainstream?

Should You Get A Shingles Vaccine?

In older adults, is vaccination against herpes zoster effective and safe? A Cochrane Review stated that the herpes zoster (shingles) vaccine has demonstrated effectiveness in preventing shingles in older adults, yet if you look at the actual numbers, you will see that in those aged 60-69, the shingles vaccine was ineffective for 98% (forty-nine out of fifty) of those studied. For those aged 70 and older, the vaccine was 99% ineffective, since 99 out of 100 received no benefit. In addition, when looking at the adverse effect risk of this vaccine, you will find that for every 2.8 vaccines given, one patient was harmed. Furthermore, for every one hundred subjects vaccinated, one had a severe adverse reaction such as rash, fever, or hospitalization. I am incredulous that anyone looking at this data could proclaim that the shingles vaccine was effective. In fact, it wasn’t. According to this data, the shingles vaccine was a 98-99% failure.

No Polio in the Philippines Since 1993, But Mass Polio Vaccination Program Targeted for 500,000 Typhoon Victims Under Age 5

In spite of the fact that there have been no cases of polio in the Philippines since 1993, WHO and UNICEF are taking advantage of the typhoon tragedy to spread their vaccine program into the Philippines, administering the highly controversial and dangerous oral live attenuated polio vaccine, which is no longer used in the U.S., but is still common in poorer countries. 30,000 children have already been vaccinated in an extraordinary effort in the typhoon aftermath, and 500,000 children under the age of five are targeted for the live polio vaccine and the measles vaccine. Will the Philippines now be added to the list of countries where UNICEF works that sees an increase in infant mortality under the age of five? How many Filipino children will now be sacrificed for the vaccine cause, in a country that has no polio and where measles has been declining and is rare?
