Tamiflu worse than 'Swine Flu' for Kids - NewsGrabs Wednesday, 12 August 2009
UK study shows side effects for children from Tamiflu worse than “swine flu”
More than half of children in the UK taking Tamiflu for the “swine flu” experienced side effects such as nausea and nightmares, according to research by Britain’s Health Protection Agency.In spite of the mounting evidence that Tamiflu causes more sickness and damage than the “swine flu” it is supposed to treat, the WHO continutes to push the drug, along with forced vaccination, on the populations of its 194 member countries for a negligeble “swine flu” pandemic in an act of gross negligence at best.
German doctor criticises “large-scale experiment” of the H1N1 mass vaccination
Wolfgang Becker-Brüser, doctor and editor of a pharmaceutical magazine in Germany, has said that the mass H1N1 vaccination planned for autumn is a “large-scale experiment on the people of Germany”. He said that the clinical trials to ensure the safety of the candidate vaccines are not comprehensive enough.
Squalene: The Swine Flu Vaccine’s Dirty Little Secret Exposed
If children are the first target group in the U.S. per Sebelius, that means we’re about to inject around 75 million children with a fast tracked vaccine containing novel adjuvants, including dangerous squalene, to prevent perhaps 100 deaths.I’m not overlooking the tragedy of the loss of even one child to an illness like the H1N1 flu virus. But there can be no argument that unnecessary mass injection of millions of children with a vaccine containing an adjuvant known to cause a host of debilitating autoimmune diseases is a reckless, dangerous plan.
WHO warns fast-tracked swine flu vaccine may be unsafe
Dr Keiji Fukuda, the WHO's flu chief, today warned about the potential dangers of the untested vaccine: "There are certain areas where you simply do not try to make any economies. One of the things which cannot be compromised is the safety of vaccines."
Does WHO make up its figures for “swine flu” cases as it goes along?
But just how does WHO know the precise figures since WHO itself said on July 16th that governments should stop keeping track of the number of cases of “swine flu”? If WHO does not have solid and up-to-date data on the spread of the so-called “swine flu” around the world, then how can WHO possibly release these kinds of “worldwide” figures?“…WHO will no longer issue the global tables showing the numbers of confirmed cases for all countries,” a WHO press release of July 16th announced.
Moreover the WHO said in that same press release that it was “extremely difficult, if not impossible” to confirm the mysterious “swine flu” through laboratory testing...
Diseased African Monkeys Used to Make Swine Flu Vaccines; Private Military Contractor Holds Key Patents
Once you understand all this, some obvious questions come to mind: Could H1N1 swine flu have been intentionally created and released into the wild (in Mexico) in order to create a windfall of vaccine profits that would financially benefit both the drug companies and the vaccine production patent holders?
Medical journal urges caution over swine flu vaccine
COUNTRIES NEED to assess carefully the risks and benefits of the rapid approval of a human swine flu vaccine to avoid the repeat of past problems with mass-vaccination, medical journal The Lancet has said.The publication said the fast- tracking of vaccines could lead to a repeat of the problems surrounding a 1976 H1N1 vaccination programme in the United States.
Videos: Pandemic Flu Online
Several video commentaries on the 'pandemic' swine flu and the planned vaccination campaign, which several experts see as more dangerous than the disease they are supposed to prevent.
EFSA Completes First EU-Wide Assessment of Vitamin and Mineral Sources Used in Food Supplements
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has announced completion of its review of "nutrient sources", which are specific vitamin-and mineral substances, to be used in food supplements. Due to stringent data requirements, the review mandated by the EU's food supplements directive has greatly reduced the number of substances that may be used in supplements in Europe from January 2010 onwards.This does not mean that supplements were unsafe or inefficient - merely that new rules required documentation - similar to that needed to register a new medicine - that was simply not available for a great number of nutrient sources.
Welsh magistrates return guilty verdict in novel foods case
Robert Verkerk PhD, acting as an expert for the defence, commented, “This case epitomises what is wrong with so many European laws, and how they may work to interfere with people’s fundamental rights and freedoms. There is no question of any harm being caused by the product, while hundreds of people have provided written testimonials to the company citing its benefits. Yet, because of an arbitrary date of enforcement of a law enacted in Brussels that was originally intended to protect people from GM foods, a small Welsh company’s future is now held in the balance while the company’s director could be made a criminal.”
Dutch media doesn't get it right on Codex
The uncomfortable reality that we have to face up to, therefore, is that Big Media’s output is distinctly less than independent and by no means completely impartial.I would strongly argue that would be naïve for anybody to assume that Big Media’s output is free from bias and outside interference.
Review of existing studies says: Organic 'has no health benefits'
Dr Dangour, said: "Our review indicates that there is currently no evidence to support the selection of organically over conventionally produced foods on the basis of nutritional superiority."
He added that better quality studies were needed.

More than 20,000 pesticide products are marketed in the U.S., including nonchemical alternatives derived from natural materials. Steve Tvedten gives a rundown of the most common natural pesticides here.
Common Insect Repellent DEET Affects Nervous System Same As Nerve Gas
(link from stephentvedten.blogspot.com - blog censored by Blogger. Check out his other site at http://www.stephentvedten.com/ )

Pesticides in well water linked to Parkinson's disease
(link from stephentvedten.blogspot.com - blog censored by Blogger. Check out his other site at http://www.stephentvedten.com/ )
Rural residents who drink from private wells are up to twice as likely to develop Parkinson's from certain pesticides, including methomyl, chlorpyrifos and propargite, a UCLA study has found. People with Parkinson's were more likely to have consumed water from private wells, and had done so for 4.3 years longer on average than people who did not have the disease.
The devastating record of GMO foods
Vandana Shiva is clear: genetically modified seeds are not to feed us better. Patented genetically modified seeds make farmers victims of the multinational corporations. Farmers in developing countries are going hungry. A high cost, chemically intensive agriculture is a recipe for hunger. Food has become a weapon. (Two eight minute videos)
South Africa: Smart chickens not duped by GM feed
The results confirmed Oppenheimer's initial suspicion - the maize had been genetically engineered to produce proteins that are toxic to certain insects and weeds."It contained BT1 which makes the maize insect resistant, as well as Roundup which makes it weed resistant. This is the first report we have had of chickens not eating GM feed," said a GM expert.
Cat-Food Irradiation Banned After Cats Die
About 90 cats fell ill last year and 30 died before a Sydney vet, Georgina Child, made the link in November between the mystery illness and a brand of Canadian gourmet pet food called Orijen.The manufacturer, Champion Petfoods, blamed the contaminated food on Australian quarantine regulations, which demand that pet food not cooked over a specified temperature undergo irradiation of 50 kiloGrays upon arrival in the country. Of the 60 countries Champion Petfoods exports to, only Australia makes irradiation compulsory.
The Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service and the company that carries out the process, Steritech, insisted at the time the irradiation process was harmless.
What's obvious on cats may be much less obvious on humans, leading to long term health problems. Precaution should be invoked on irradiation of foods.
US Federal Judge Orders Wyeth Documents Unsealed
A U.S. federal judge has issued an order to unseal thousands of Wyeth Pharmaceutical documents that provide details about the company's "mammoth" ghostwriting campaign.Wyeth flooded medical journals with some 40 favorable ghostwritten articles penned by prominent physicians who sold their name for cash, in an all-out effort to offset the scientific evidence linking its female hormone replacement drug, Prempro, to breast cancer.
Health Reformation - 95 Theses for a public debate
Marjorie Steakley, author of assumetheopposite.com has published her '95 Theses' calling for a radical reformation of medicine and healthcare. Those theses are named after the famous numbered articles Martin Luther nailed to the door of Wittenberg Castle's church in October of 1517, calling for reformation of the corrupt and greedy Catholic Church of Rome.In a similar way, Marjorie calls for debate and reformation of western medicine.
All Doped Up - Antidepressants in America
Between 1996 and 2005, Reuters reports, the use of anti-depressants doubled to nearly 10 percent of the American population. In 1996, the figure was 13 million. Now, it's 27 million.Those numbers, obviously, should cause some worry.
For one thing, the suicide rate for middle-aged people is rising, Reuters reported, suicide being a risk factor in taking antidepressants. According to the Journal of Preventative Medicine, the suicide rate for middle-aged Americans increased 16 percent from 1999 to 2008, [a period] which roughly coincides with the massive increase in anti-depressant use.
The “science” of AIDS - Beware of antiretrovirals
A MYTH THAT KILLS: AIDS INDUSTRY FEEDS ON FEAR
"In the fight against AIDS, profiteering has trumped prevention," declared Sam L. Ruteikara, co-chair of Uganda's National AIDS-Prevention Committee, in a Washington Post essay this week. "AIDS is no longer simply a disease; it has become a multibillion-dollar industry."- - -
