            <content type="html">&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:12pt;&quot;&gt;...&quot;Unlike the alarm created by about 1,000 cases of measles reported this year, the autism epidemic has been the perpetual elephant in the room for two decades. Few people want to speak about or entertain the possibility that it is being caused, at least in part, by environmental factors such chemicals like glyphosate and even vaccines and their “synergistic effects,” which Dr. Seneff mentioned in her radio interview with Hartmann.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;On June 5, 2014, senior research scientist Stephanie Seneff, PhD of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory made the following statement at an event sponsored by the Groton Wellness organization in Groton, Massachusetts:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;At today’s rate, by 2025, one in two children will be autistic.&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://thevaccinereaction.org/2019/06/a-nation-where-half-of-the-children-become-autistic/#_edn1&quot;&gt;1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:12pt;&quot;&gt;&quot;The CDC data are on 12-year-olds. People don’t realize that—kids who are 12 years old today. So when you look at 2014, you’re looking at 2001 in utero. So we want to look at the situation in 2001. Since then, things have gotten a lot worse in all the vectors—the toxic chemicals that I have identified are connected to autism. And, of course, the one I’ve really singled in on is glyphosate. I think it’s the single most prominent chemical that’s responsible for the epidemic. That is the active ingredient in the pervasive herbicide Roundup.&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://thevaccinereaction.org/2019/06/a-nation-where-half-of-the-children-become-autistic/#_edn4&quot;&gt;4&lt;/a&gt;&quot;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

            <content type="html">&lt;div&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;UPDATE: Contact U.S. Legislators to STOP CDC Proposed Rule&lt;br /&gt;for Forced Detention, Isolation, Vaccination and Quarantine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dear NVIC Advocacy Team Members,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;We recently asked you to contact your legislators in Washington D.C. and the officials at the CDC to demand the withdrawal of the dangerous CDC proposal rule granting unprecedented and expanded police powers to forcibly detain, isolate, vaccinate and quarantine us while we travel right here in the United States. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;We want to thank the organizations and individuals who came out loud and strong registering legitimate serious concerns.  However, &lt;b&gt;there is still work to be done requesting help from our US Senators and Congressional Representatives to stop this attack on the very civil liberties which make us grateful to live in the United States of America. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;There were over 15,000 public comments posted on the Notice of Public Rulemaking (NPRM) to the CDC that are now part of the public record (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regulations.gov/docket?D=CDC-2016-0068&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.regulations.gov/docket?D=CDC-2016-0068&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;.  We’ve highlighted links to our comments and to those from some of our friends so you can see for yourself exactly how serious this is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-14884&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-14884&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-13863&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-13863&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;The Great Lakes Justice Center&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-14908&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-14908&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;National Health Freedom Action&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-12489&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=CDC-2016-0068-12489&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;While the comment period to the CDC has ended, &lt;b&gt;it is imperative that everyone continues to contact their two US Senators and their US Congressional Representative asking them to demand that the CDC rescind its proposed rule.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;While some legislators will end their terms in January, many will still be there and staff tends to stick around.  Enough noise now can help end this dangerous rule for good!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Make sure your voice is heard.  One of our supporters forwarded a personal reply message from her US Senator stating, “I've taken the liberty of contacting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on your behalf asking that they review your concerns and get back to me with a detailed and appropriate response.”  We need to see many responses like this! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Don’t let their office get away with not responding or sending a lame form letter back to you that doesn’t relate to this issue specifically.  Keep calling and sending in comments until they respond appropriately! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;ACTION NEEDED:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;1)&lt;span&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Contact your U.S. Congressional Representative and both of your U.S. Senators Representatives and ask them to stop this outrageous federal overreach and unnecessary expansion of police powers by demanding the CDC withdraw the proposed rule.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Send your letter (sample below) by email, fax or regular mail. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is very important that you follow-up with a personal phone call expressing your concerns as well because some offices aren't as thorough with reading letters as others. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should be contacting all three of your U.S. legislators.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find who represents you in the U.S. Congress and U.S. Senate:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;a.&lt;span&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Register/login to the &lt;a href=&quot;http://nvicadvocacy.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NVIC Advocacy Portal&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;c.&lt;span&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Look for the names of your personal U.S. Congressional Representative and your two U.S. Senators listed on the right hand side&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;d.&lt;span&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Click on their names to be linked to all of their contact information&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;2)&lt;span&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Share this alert with family and friends by forwarding this email or sending them to&lt;a href=&quot;http://nvicadvocacy.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://NVICAdvocacy.org&lt;/a&gt; on our National page or to our note on National Vaccine Information Center Facebook.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;November 15, 2016&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;The Honorable FIRSTNAME LASTNAME&lt;br /&gt;STREET ADDRESS&lt;br /&gt;Washington, D.C. 20515&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNoSpacing&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;CDC and HHS Proposed Rule Concerning Quarantine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNoSpacing&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;CDC Docket No. CDC-2016-0068&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNoSpacing&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dear Representative or Senator LASTNAME,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;As a constituent of yours, I am writing to you for your assistance.  I have serious concerns about an overreaching proposed HHS/CDC Rule that would expand police powers to forcibly detain, isolate, vaccinate and quarantine citizens. This Notice of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) was published in the Federal Register on 8/15/16 and the CDC has received overwhelming public comment opposing this rule.  &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regulations.gov/docket?D=CDC-2016-0068&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.regulations.gov/docket?D=CDC-2016-0068&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;I am asking you to demand that the CDC withdraw this proposed rule for the following reasons:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;        &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;The proposed rule is a violation of civil liberties&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span&gt;.  U.S. health officials could hold a person in custody for 72 hours without the right to contact an attorney to appeal the detention. Detainees could be asked to sign a contract with the CDC that gives consent to the “public health measures” being applied to the adult or a minor child, which may include “quarantine, isolation, conditional release, medical examination, hospitalization, vaccination, and treatment.” The proposed rule states that “the individual’s consent shall not be considered a prerequisite to any exercise of any authority” by the CDC. After release, the person can be electronically tracked and monitored, including by electronic tracking devices attached to the body.  (see page 54253, column 3, Agreements and column 1, Persons: Isolation and surveillance of the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2016-08-15/pdf/2016-18103.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NPRM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;        &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;The federal government will have the authority to punish individuals. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span&gt;Those violating the “public health agreement” the individual signed in order to be released from government custody. These punishments include being jailed for six months to a year and paying fines of $100,000 to $250,000 or, in the case of “violations by organizations,” which are not explained in the NPRM, a fine of $250,000 to $500,000. (see page 54249, column 2. Penalties of the&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2016-08-15/pdf/2016-18103.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NPRM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;        &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;The proposed rule is a clear case of federal government overreach.&lt;span class=&quot;x_apple-converted-space&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span&gt; Federal and state laws are already in place to address the control of outbreaks of serious communicable diseases.  When similar rules have been proposed in the past they &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-04-01-quarantine_N.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;have been withdrawn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; over concerns of civil rights violations and the cost to implement.  However, the NPRM states (see page 54308, column 1, Federalism of the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2016-08-15/pdf/2016-18103.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NPRM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; and page 6 of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nvic.org/cmstemplates/nvic/pdf/legislative-alerts/nvic-cdc-nprm-2016-0068-public-comment.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NVIC’s&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; comments).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;        &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;The proposed rule has very subjective and unreasonably broad definitions of illness&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span&gt;. The proposed rule defines a potentially “ill” person deserving of special government scrutiny to be someone with “areas of the skin with multiple red bumps, red, flat spots or blister like bumps filled with fluid or pus that are intact or partially crusted over,” warning ominously that “the presence of skin rash, along with fever, may indicate that the traveler has measles, rubella (German measles), varicella (chickenpox) meningococcal disease or smallpox.”  These definitions (on pages 54239-40) are very subjective and will open the door for travelers to be detained for something as simple as a skin rash while suffering from a bad sunburn, acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, the hives, or severe allergies and a mild fever that could be due to an old fashioned cold. Measles is not Ebola and chickenpox is not smallpox.  (see pages 54239 and 54240 of the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2016-08-15/pdf/2016-18103.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NPRM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; )&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sincerely,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;YOUR NAME&lt;br /&gt;YOUR STREET ADDRESS&lt;br /&gt;YOUR CITY, STATE, ZIP&lt;br /&gt;YOUR EMAIL&lt;br /&gt;YOUR PHONE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;There are several things Congress can do including:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (also known as the Congressional Review Act), new final rules must be sent to Congress and the Government Accountability Office for review before they can take effect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;If the House and Senate pass a resolution of disapproval and the President signs it (or if both houses override a presidential veto), the rule becomes void and cannot be republished by an agency in the same form without Congressional approval. Since 1996, when this process started, Congress has disapproved only one rule.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpLast&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Congress may also exercise its oversight in other ways, by holding hearings and posing questions to agency heads, by enacting new legislation, or by imposing funding restrictions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;There are several things that could happen next with this proposed rule, including but not limited to:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;An agency may extend or re&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;‐&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;open a comment period when it is not satisfied that it has enough high quality comments or when the public comments make a good case for adding more time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Similarly, an agency may find that people have raised new issues in their comments that were not discussed in the initial proposed rule. As new issues or additional complexity arises, the agency may publish a series of proposed rules in the &lt;i&gt;Federal Register&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;After the comment period closes, an agency may establish a second period for reply comments (comments that respond to prior comments). A reply period is not required by law. The reply comment period enables people to respond to comments that agencies received at the end of comment period, creating more of a public dialog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;x_MsoListParagraphCxSpLast&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;·&lt;span&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;If the rulemaking record contains persuasive new data or policy arguments, or poses difficult questions or criticisms, the agency may decide to terminate the rulemaking. Or, the agency may decide to continue the rulemaking but change aspects of the rule to reflect these new issues. If the changes are major, the agency may publish a supplemental proposed rule. If the changes are minor, or a logical outgrowth of the issues and solutions discussed in the proposed rules, the agency may proceed with a final rule.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

            <content type="html">&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am currently at a cross road in my life. I am a sophomore in college studying nursing. Although I do not agree with western medicine and the western diet, I want to pursue a nursing career so I could work with plastic surgeons to help people with deformities from accidents, car crashes, burns, etc. However, my problem is that my nursing program requires me to take a series of flu vaccinations each semester (twice a school year). I am completely and 100% against this and I do not know what to do. Do I suck it up for the rest of the time I am in school and take the shots? Do I quit nursing? OR is there a way around getting these vaccinations and still be a nursing student? I'm feeling pretty hopeless at the moment because I have to make my decision within a month.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content>

            <content type="html">&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;As the title says, vaccinations. I am curious to see anyone's take on them.&lt;br /&gt; First off, I don't believe that if we were healthy from birth on that we would even need them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am bringing this up because in December I will be going to something called Job Corps here in the states. I am REQUIRED to get my tetanus vaccine (something which I have been actively avoiding since I was between 3-6.) Or I cannot attend. When I arrive the &quot;medical&quot; team will be on hand with the required vaccines to stab me and brutally inject a disgusting mixture into my body. The side effects get to be intense pain, muscular pain, bruising, numbness, flu-like symptoms, allergic reactions. Umm...hello? Obviously my body doesn't want this s***. I'm not sure if there is even a legal way to get out of this and still be able to attend. I don't personally believe that vaccines are good at all and the reaction my body has to them is awful. I've gotten sick every time. I've managed to effectively avoid a tetanus infection but, seriously, can anyone think of a way to get out of this one?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The location will be in Washington which I know allows for philosophical exemption for CHILDREN. It never says anything for adults. To get it for a child a parent would just sign a note saying that they are exempt philosophically. Job corps is a program of the federal government so, I'm not sure if it would be governed under federal or state laws. Gah!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do you believe about vaccines?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content>

            <content type="html">&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;What do you all think about immunizations/vaccines?  I have a two month old son &amp;amp; am quite torn faced with the decision.  I want to trust &amp;amp; do the right thing &amp;amp; just couldn't forgive myself if something bad happened because of my wrong choice either way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;I was wondering too, we're told by big pharma that the reason these diseases are gone or on the decline is because of the vaccines, but then I've also heard that these diseases were already on the decline before the vaccines even came on the scene &amp;amp; so they had nothing to do with it really.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;When I mentioned that 'can't the vaccine even cause the very disease it's supposed to prevent', the pediatrician I spoke with (of course they are going to be for, as this is what their job is) said that there's never been a case where anyone got the measles or mumps who was vaccinated for them, but I was vaccinated for them &amp;amp; did get both.  Maybe the vaccine made them not as bad as they would've been, but then why did she even say that?  My son also on the very day he was born was given a Hep B vaccine &amp;amp; then became jaundiced for a couple weeks immediately afterward &amp;amp; had to be on a light blanket to help resolve.  They said it's really common, but maybe that's because they are giving all these new born infants this vaccine? &lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;The pediatrician also said that those of us that don't get the vaccines are putting the other children at risk, but I don't see why they'd be worried since they are vaccinated &amp;amp; supposedly protected?  Wouldn't it be the un-vaccinated children that are more at risk because of all the other kids being injected with the viruses &amp;amp; being contagious?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;It also seems that anyone I know that gets the flu shots comes down with the flu.  I never get them &amp;amp; haven't got sick in a long time.  I have a friend that gets her child all the shots &amp;amp; she's always going on about how he's never sick, but every time I talk to her or see them they are always sick it seems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;Unfortunately too, I don't really trust the 'government' or standard medical establishment, I fear they are trying to harm us to decrease the population &amp;amp; dumb us down making us easier to control.  I just don't know what to believe anymore.  Maybe there's something in the vaccines that later becomes harmful after being activated or triggered through chemtrails or something.  Or maybe they just lower our immunities in general making us weak.  The theory itself just seems strange.  The MMR one I hear actually has three live viruses in it, that seems like quite the attack on a young system, not to mention all the other crazy things in them like thallium, mercury, formaldehyde, etc.  Maybe the finding of the autism link to be a fraud is really just disinformation so people won't stop getting them?  It seems far fetched that it would've been hoaxed just for the glory of discovering something.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;They are not supposed to be mandatory, but then we're also told they won't let our kids in school without being immunized, but there are ways around it for religious or health reasons - Dr. Mercola has an e-pamphlet on it.  And, what's up with this forced vaccination at gunpoint thing:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/022267_vaccinations_health_freedom.html&quot;&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/022267_vaccinations_health_freedom.html&lt;/a&gt; .  Did that really happen?  If why, one has to wonder.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;What are your opinions?  Does anyone have any personal experience or know of any good non-biased info. on the subject?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;font-size-4&quot;&gt;Kamalla&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content>

The authors stated that the only ones showing benefit were industry-funded. They also pointed out that the industry-funded studies were more likely to be published in the most prestigious journals...and one more thing: They found cases of severe harm caused by the vaccines, in spite of inadequate reporting of adverse effects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content>

Big Pharma and Washington D.C. take care of each other, and this is no exception.Schoolchildren could be first in line for swine flu vaccine this fall — and schools are being put on notice that they might even be turned into shot clinics.Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Tuesday she is urging school superintendents around the country to spend the summer preparing for that possibility, if the government goes ahead with mass vaccinations.Being that Boobus didn’t buy into the swine flu hysteria, there’s going to be some pockets of resistance on this one. Here is some more on this.&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/027654.html&quot;&gt;http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/027654.html&lt;/a&gt;How does everyone feel about this?Would you let your children get vaccinated?

            <content type="html">&lt;div&gt;So im going to visit my friend tmrw who just had a baby, a couple of weeks ago. I have a couple of issues I'd like to ask you all about, especially the mothers on 30bad..The baby is being breastfed but is suffering from sever acne, and colic like symptoms. she cries nonstop 70% of the time and my friend is worried.. Does anyone know why this would be occurring?My friend was on birth control for years, and when she stopped, her periods were irregular. she had a difficult time becoming and remaining pregnant, so she was put on hormones by her doctor to keep her pregnancy. her expected delivery date passed by about 3 days or so, so the doctor recommended they induce the birth, which they did.My friend has always had an eating disorder and is extremely afraid of gaining weight (fat).. she eats a little better than a SADist, but im afraid way too little..I bought her the 80/10/10 diet book and I will be giving it to her tmrw. I dont know how she will respond so I am kinda nervous.. :Si have spoken to her only briefly about vaccines, and luckily she hasn't vaccinated her baby girl yet, but she said she will after her baby is about 1 month old. I am looking for articles, videos or any info that made you turn down vaccines for your children..Any tips,suggestions, recommendations would be greatly appreciated..&lt;/div&gt;</content>
