a crime to refuse vaccinations

[Guest guest]

The controversial Homeland Security Act was recently approved by the Senate and

President Bush. What does this mean for Americans? It means that, if one man

deems it necessary, we can all now be forced to receive immunizations -- no

personal, religious or medical exemptions allowed -- and refusing to accept them

is punishable by fine and imprisonment. Moreover, as it stands the bill protects

pharmaceutical companies from potential liability in vaccine-related injury

lawsuits.

 

The bill was passed under the guise of necessity for protecting the population

from impending bio-terrorism threats, and with a promise that the special

interest conditions, such as the one relating to pharmaceutical companies above,

would be revised early next year.

 

The concern is that corporate interests are overwhelmingly influencing

legislation in an already turbulent, post-9/11 environment, raising the

questions of whose interests homeland security is serving, and does it leave the

public to fend for themselves?

 

Vaccinations were already an unsettling topic, even before the passing of this

new bill, with one of the most disconcerting aspects being the association of

autism with pediatric vaccinations. The number of cases of autism in the U.S.

tripled in the 90s, around the same time researchers discovered that Thimerosal,

a preservative found in many infant vaccines, contained levels of mercury that

were above those allowed by Environmental Protection Agency guidelines.

 

Though the vaccines contained enough toxic mercury to cause neural damage in

children, many medical practitioners denied the association. However, in 1999

the FDA recommended that Thimerosal be removed from vaccine formulas, which

raised doubts about the vaccines’ safety and created some public and political

support against pharmaceutical companies.

 

The recent bill makes it so that victims of mercury poisoning, Gulf War

Syndrome, cancers and the other slew of illnesses potentially linked to

vaccinations will have no legal recourse against the pharmaceutical companies

that produced the vaccines.

 

A related bill that also potentially limited the freedom of Americans, the Model

State Emergency Health Powers Act (MEHPA), was passed in December 2001. This law

gave state legislatures the right to vaccinate people, enforce quarantines,

seize and destroy property without any compensation and ration medical supplies,

food and fuel in emergency situations.

 

As of July 2002, 22 states have rejected or stalled the law while 16 states and

the District of Columbia have passed all or parts of it. In states where the law

was passed, citizens will be charged with a crime if they refuse vaccinations.

 

The new Homeland Security Act takes the choice of whether vaccinations are

beneficial or harmful away from the individual. This violation of freedom takes

away our right to decide what is best for our own bodies and leaves it in the

hands of the federal government, and the special interest groups that

potentially control it.

> Hello Frank

These sort of legislations are quite

frightening.

We had one similar in England where you could be

classed as " insane " if you refused vaccination for

your children or if you refused say Chemotherapy for

cancer. The powers that be kept it very quiet and

tried to slip it through parliament without the public

being aware. Luckily someone got hold of it and we

were able to get it thrown out but it is very bad for

democracy as is the E.U s bill to limit our choice of

alternative remedies.

Best wishes

Chris

--As a grandmother to two children who are toxic/vaccine injuried, I

encourage you all to contact your senators and stay ontop of this

issue. Sen.Lott, majority leader, has promised to " revisit " the issue

in January. I don't hold much hope, but many are working hard on this

one. It is VERY important, not only to the autism community.

Rep. Dan Burton will be holding another hearing on Dec. 10 in the

Rayburn building. He has a grandchild with autism and is one of the

few, really fighting for these kids.

All of us, deserve our day in court, that's all we are asking. As a

side note, they are saying the families can go to the gov't vaccine

fund, this is a lie. Thimerosal was an " additive " , not vaccine and

claims are routinely denied.
