The Network of Anti-Vaccination Activists (NOVAC), India, on Saturday strongly

condemned the move by the local administration to " browbeat and harass "

homoeopathic doctor Nityananda Sahu of Ichhapur, Kendrapara, to try and

forcefully administer them OPV1 (anti-polio drops) to his grandchildren to whom

he has already administered homoeopathic prophylatics.

 

NOVAC general secretary Jagannath Chatterjee said Sahu seems well aware of the

controversy surrounding the oral polio vaccine. The vaccine has been banned

worldwide for its propensity to cause Vaccine Attributed Paralytic Polio and

Acute Flaccid Paralysis.. Revealing further he said that the OPV1, currently

being administered without following the scientific protocol of informed consent

and medical supervision, has caused Acute Flaccid Paralysis to shoot up by four

times in the regions where it has been administered as per the doctors of the

Indian Medical Association.

 

 

Moreover, Chatterjee argued, the 'irrational' vaccination policy of the

Government of India is not mandatory. The vaccine has also been in the news for

transferring 60 identified carcinogenic simian viruses into humans, which are

now being transmitted from parents to children. The OPV has also caused a new

strain of the polio virus and has been linked to the AIDS epidemic, he said.

 

 

" We also criticise the statement that unvaccinated children will be a threat to

other children as the strain of the vaccine virus escapes via the faeces and is

the strain that puts other unvaccinated children and even adults at risk. Sahu

should be left alone and his decision respected. We would also request the

health administration to issue a warranty of vaccine safety to all parents who

decide to administer the controversial drops so that the responsibility can be

pinned down and the hapless parents can seek compensation for the resultant

sickness or paralysis when things go wrong, " Chatterjee said.

 

Think Simply. Think Wisely.

Curb Semantics. Speak the Truth.
