We’ll cover the truth regarding the dangers of prescription medicines and vaccines.
National Vaccine Choice Leader Calls for Vaccine Policy & Law Reform To Protect Human and Civil Rights
Medical tyranny is dangerously gaining traction all across the United States, where the State believes they have greater authority than parents in deciding health matters for children, such as vaccinations. Financed by a powerful and rich pro-pharma lobby, parental rights to make health decisions for their own children are being attacked in many states. There is opposition, however, and a recent case in Colorado proved that if parents become active and fight for their rights, it is possible to stem this tide of medical tyranny. Health Impact News encourages everyone concerned about health freedom and parental rights to join and support the National Vaccine Information Center. The National Vaccine Information Center is launching a national campaign to secure vaccine safety and informed consent protections in state vaccine policies and laws. If the state can tag, track down and force individuals against their will to be injected with biological products of known and unknown toxicity today, there will be no limit on which individual freedoms the state can take away in the name of the greater good tomorrow. It's time to stand up and protect our rights. What you choose to do, what we all choose to do right now will determine what kind of America we leave to our children and grandchildren.
Justina Pelletier: Please Let me go Home!
Justina Pelletier has been held in custody against her will, and against the will of her family, for over a year, simply because a group of doctors at Boston Children's Hospital disagreed with her diagnosis by her physician at Tuft's Medical Center. Justina's family was referred to some specialists at Boston Children's Hospital regarding her condition, mitochondrial disease, but instead a different set of doctors intervened and said her condition as psychological. When the parents disagreed, they were escorted by security out of the hospital and ended up losing custody of their daughter who was originally confined to a psychiatric ward at the hospital. Justina herself is never present at court hearings where Judge Joseph Johnston has refused to return her custody to her parents, so her voice in the matter is never heard. Her family recorded the above video so people can hear Justina's voice in the matter.
Mumps Vaccine Proves Ineffective as Outbreaks Among Fully Vaccinated Increase
Americans are vaccinated against mumps through the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) shot, which is also one of the more dangerous vaccinations. But in the early 2000s, researchers began to notice an alarming pattern: those vaccinated against mumps were still becoming ill with it—at alarming rates. This worrisome trend is accelerating: in April 2014, the New Jersey Department of Health warned of an outbreak of mumps at the Stevens Institute of Technology. Eight cases of mumps were confirmed—yet all of those infected had been fully vaccinated with two documented doses of the MMR shot. What’s going on here? Is the vaccine losing its efficacy—or was it never effective in the first place? Instead of acknowledging the vaccine’s problems, the CDC and mainstream media blame people who don’t vaccinate.
Cover-up Scandal: CDC’s Vaccine Research Exposed as Flawed and Falsified
Just months after U.S. Congressman Bill Posey compared the Center for Disease Control (CDC)’s vaccine safety studies to the SEC’s Bernie Madoff scandal, malfeasance in the CDC’s studies of thimerosal-containing vaccines has, for the first time, been documented in peer-reviewed scientific literature. Dr. Boyd Haley, international expert in mercury toxicity and a co-author of the recently published paper said “There is no doubt that authorities in the CDC have initiated and participated in a cover-up of vaccine-induced damage from thimerosal to our children----and this I consider criminal. The paper, "Methodological Issues and Evidence of Malfeasance in Research Purporting to Show Thimerosal in Vaccines is Safe," was published on June 6 and contains eight pages of evidence that the CDC has had knowledge of the vaccine preservative’s neurological risks, yet continues to cover them up.
1 in 5 Elderly US Patients Injured by Medical Care
A new study of more than 12,500 Medicare patients (with an average age of 76) found that nearly one in five suffer from medical injuries when receiving care. Two-thirds of the injuries occurred during outpatient care (such as doctor’s offices) rather than in hospitals. The often-preventable injuries were the direct result of medical care or management, not a result of the patient’s underlying condition. Past research has suggested at least 210,000 Americans are killed by preventable hospital errors each year.
Big Pharma want to “Protect” the Elderly from “Dangers” of Coconut Oil and Natural Supplements
A new study has been published by a psychiatrist working for a VA hospital educating other psychiatrists on how to protect their patients against the dangerous side effects from coconut oil and other natural supplements. However, with no recorded deaths due to the side effects of coconut oil or other natural supplements in recent years, and with the medical community themselves admitting that over 100,000 people a year die from their prescription drugs, one has to wonder who is really being "protected" with this advice?
Thousands in Baby Graves Scandal were used in Secret Vaccine Trials in the 1930s
The Irish Daily Mail has published an alarming report which outlines how scientists in Ireland secretly vaccinated more than 2,000 children in religious-run homes in the 1930s in suspected illegal drug trials. The Daily Mail is reporting that the scandal was revealed after the discovery of 800 infants buried in a septic tank outside a former mother and baby home in Tuam, Co. Galway. So far no U.S. mainstream media outlets are reporting anything about the developing scandal as Irish premier Enda Kenny orders a full investigation.
NJ Appeals Court Rules in Favor of Nurse who Refused Flu Vaccine
The resistance among nurses and other healthcare workers to submit to mandatory flu vaccinations as a condition of employment is growing. Many nurses who have lost their jobs for refusing the flu vaccination are taking legal action against employers who violate their health freedom rights as they choose not to receive a toxic flu vaccine. One of those cases in litigation was settled this week in a New Jersey appeals court, where a three-judge panel ruled in favor of a nurse who was unfairly denied unemployment benefits after she was fired for refusing a flu shot without claiming a religious or medical exemption.
Chicago Sues 5 Big Pharma Firms for Creating Opioid Painkiller Addicts
This story out of Chicago is news only because it shows the cost municipalities must bear to deal with the increasing prescription drug abuse in treating the addicts of painkillers. The lawsuit itself will not be motivation for pharmaceutical companies to change their ways. They are already the largest criminals in the U.S., having paid out billions of dollars in fines and criminal settlements, all as part of the "cost of doing business." Sidney Wolfe of the British Medical Journal wrote an editorial last year explaining that criminal activities by pharmaceutical companies is increasing, due to insufficient penalties. Deaths due to prescription drug abuse of painkillers now exceeds deaths due to heroin and cocaine combined. Yet pharmaceutical companies remain in business pushing their drugs, while millions of users of "illegal drugs" go to prison each year as a result of the "war on drugs."
Over 10,000 American Toddlers Are Being Given ADHD Drugs
Once again, our country’s disadvantaged kids are being unnecessarily medicated nearly three times more often than other countries. According to CDC officials, more than 10,000 American toddlers—children who are just 2 or 3 years old—are being medicated for alleged attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). There are few studies on the impact of psychostimulant ADHD drugs like methylphenidate (Ritalin) or amphetamines (like Adderall) in children this young. However, we do know that the side effects of ADHD drugs include stunted growth, insomnia, hallucinations, high blood pressure, involuntary movements, aggressive behavior, heart attack, brain hemorrhage, stroke, migraines, and seizures. Emerging evidence also suggests that Ritalin can cause long-term damage to developing prefrontal cortexes, resulting in “rigid behavior, difficulties with multitasking, or problems with short-term memory” later in life. What kind of society treats its children this way? Is nothing more important than drug company profits?
Antidepressants During Pregnancy Increase Risk of Autism
Researchers studied 966 mother-child pairs in order to examine the associations between prenatal use of serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)—e.g., Prozac, Zoloft, Lexapro, Paxil, Celexa– and the odds of autism spectrum disorders and other developmental delays. The scientists found that among boys, prenatal SSRI exposure was nearly 3-fold higher in children with autism spectrum disorder relative to children with typical development. The authors concluded, “In boys, prenatal exposure to SSRIs may increase susceptibility to autism spectrum disorder or developmental delay.”
Top Federal Official Tells Congressional Hearing Vaccines Don’t Cause Autism; Doesn’t Disclose Family’s Conflict of Interest
Dr. Brian Hooker with A Shot of Truth reveals the corruption among federal autism research which claims environmental factors such as vaccines have no link to autism, showing how federal funding on autism research benefits the pharmaceutical industry and not families. Families affected by vaccine injuries are not waiting for government solutions, however. All across America groups of parents and medical professionals are coming together to offer support and education over the autism epidemic problem that now affects one out of every 50 children in the United States. Leslie Manookian of The Greater Good Movie has started a video series regarding the vaccine debate and this week she highlights the "Thinking Moms' Revolution" group.
Boycott of Komen Foundation and American Cancer Society: They Don’t Want Cures, Just Your Money
Does wearing constrictive bras for long periods of time daily contribute to breast cancer? It does, according to at least 5 research studies and numerous healthcare providers, including oncologists and MD’s. Even some lingerie manufacturers have developed new bra designs hoping to minimize lymphatic constriction and thereby help prevent breast cancer, citing the bra-cancer link for their patents. But bras are not related to cancer according to the American Cancer Society and the Susan G. Komen Foundation, fund raising giants of the cancer detection and treatment world. They consider the link absurd and unworthy of serious consideration, and unquestionably assume that research showing a link must have some other explanation besides bras. Could shrugging off the bra-cancer link be killing hundreds of thousands of women and wasting billions of dollars in unnecessary detection and treatment?
White House Admits to Using Fake Vaccine Campaigns to Collect DNA Samples
Opposition to mass vaccination programs in Muslim countries like Pakistan, as well as several nations in Africa, is well known. Many among the local populations fear that such programs are a part of covert Western government operations. Medical authorities who promote the supposed benefits of vaccination programs call such ideas "wild conspiracy theories," and usually find local leaders to dispel such "myths". However, with the recent announcement by the Obama Administration that the CIA "will not seek to obtain or exploit DNA or other genetic material acquired through such programs," the White House has now admitted that these fears were not "myths" or conspiracy theories after all. A fake vaccination program was launched in Pakistan by Dr. Shakeel Afridi, for example, to capture Bin Laden, as part of CIA policy to collect DNA samples. So why did the White House come out and make such a public statement?
Failed Vaccines Become Public Health Crisis
Many diseases once thought to have been eliminated by modern medicine are now making a comeback due to the wide-scale failure of vaccines. Unfortunately, you will not read this news in the national mainstream media in the United States. Heavily funded by the pharmaceutical industry, they continue to promote the false belief that a lack of vaccination is causing new outbreaks of old diseases. The facts do not support this belief, so it is not news. It is called "propaganda". Vaccination rates are higher in the U.S. than any other country in the world. The clearest example of an old disease making a comeback due to vaccine failure is whooping cough. The pertussis vaccine is a failure. This fact cannot be disputed and pharmaceutical companies are scrambling to develop a new pertussis vaccine to replace the current one that no longer works. In the meantime, the FDA is not removing the failed vaccine from the vaccine schedule, and as a result those vaccinated for pertussis are coming down with whooping cough and spreading it to others. Yes, even though most mainstream media are reporting the exact opposite, that whooping cough outbreaks are caused by the unvaccinated population, the exact opposite is occurring, and local news media can no longer ignore these events. Some local mainstream media are now starting to report these outbreaks because they present a public health crisis. One of the most recent cases is being reported by ABC News10 in Sacramento California:
The Link Between Antidepressants and Violent Crimes
Another act of mass violence is in the news here in the U.S. with the events in Santa Barbara, California, this holiday weekend. When is the mainstream media going to start covering the link between psychiatric drugs and violence, instead of always using these tragic events as an opportunity to push for more gun control?? Far too often we hear news of a deadly attack at a school, mall or military base -- violent crimes committed by those we least suspect. Many of those violent outbreaks have involved guns. Sometimes, however, there's another common thread: antidepressants. Anti-depressants are some of the most widely prescribed drugs in America. Millions of doctors and their patients appear to like these drugs, but there is a darker side.
Let’s Stop Using Experimental Vaccines and Psych Drugs that are Destroying our Veterans and Military Personnel
One of the best ways we can honor our active military personnel and return veterans is to call attention to the epidemic use of experimental vaccines and psych drugs that are causing the highest rates of suicide among any group of Americans. More service members die by suicide than in combat with 22 veterans killing themselves every single day. If we as a nation are truly concerned about honoring our military personnel and taking care of our veterans, it is time to put a stop to these forced medication programs that lead to the highest suicide rates among any other group of Americans.
FDA Asked Big Pharma to Self-Police on Dangerous Chemicals
Phthalates are synthetic chemicals used in plastics, lubricants, insect repellants, nail polish, perfumes, and, yes, even in prescription drugs. Phthalates have a number of well known health risks and it’s been well established that patients who take drugs containing phthalates absorb that chemical into their body. In 2012, the FDA politely asked drug companies not to use phthalates in their drugs. This is despite the fact that the FDA has full power to ban phthalates. Why would the FDA issue a voluntary guidance, when they have the power to ban harmful substances outright? The answer, as always, can be reduced to three little words: “Follow the money.” Drug companies today pay a large proportion of the FDA’s budget, and FDA career personnel may hope to work for drug companies later in their career.
America: First In Health Care Spending, Last In Life Expectancy
With the amount of money spent on health care, you would think that the U.S. should be, at least, one of the top ten countries for life expectancy. You would think wrong. Americans spend over 18% of our gross national product on health care. While we make up 5% of the world’s population, we consume over 50% of the world’s pharmaceutical drugs. You would think if those drugs improved our lives and adequately treated chronic disorders, we would be at the top of the life expectancy chart. Again, you would think wrong. In fact, the U.S. spends more on health care than the next nine biggest spenders combined: Japan, France, China, UK, Italy, Canada, Brazil, Spain, and Australia. The U.S. does not rank in the top ten countries for either male or female life expectancy. In fact, we rank 37th overall, tied with Cuba, Costa Rica, Nauru, Qatar, and Columbia.
Why the FDA Should be Charged with Murder
No medical drug in the US can be released for public use unless and until the FDA says it is safe and effective. That’s the rule. The FDA is spitting out drug approvals month after month and year after year, and the drugs are routinely killing 100,000 people a year and maiming two million more, which adds up to a million deaths per decade and 20 million maimings per decade. The FDA and the federal government are doing nothing about it, even though they know what’s going on. This is mass murder. Not accidental death.
