Guest guest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 1. Damaging Tamiflu 'Side Effects' Have Been Well Known Since 2005 - Why No Honesty?The limited effectiveness, and adverse reactions of Tamiflu, particularly amongst younger people, have been known about since 2005, particularly from Japan. The dangers identified included severe, sometimes fatal skin and allergic reactions, anaphylactic shock causing 3 deaths, and 12 or more cases of death caused by ‘neuropsychiatric’ events (which included erratic behaviors, hallucination, and self-harm). Yet the government and the NHS have presented Tamiflu to the public as an effective and safe response to influenza, initially without any mention about either its limitations, or more seriously, the known dangers of the drug. Why did the popular media, without exception, completely ignore reporting on the well-known limitations and dangers of Tamiflu? Have drug companies become so powerful that no-one is now able to criticise them, even when the drugs they are marketing are suspected to be causing serious disease, and death?Press Release, Steve Scrutton, Alliance of Registered Homeopaths2. Tamiflu 'Side Effects' Backlash BeginsI have not yet prescribed Tamiflu and I doubt I shall. We are going from a situation in which it was rarely prescribed (in my practice we have 18,000 patients and ten doctors and none of us had EVER prescribed this drug until six weeks ago) to one in which literally millions, including children, may take it. Tamiflu is of uncertain efficacy, but has been heavily promoted by Big Pharma. It is a very big earner. (Have you investigated the possibility of input from Donald Rumsfeld in the USA? See cartoon published). I would not take it myself and I would not give it to my children. How then can I possibly prescribe it? Finally, there is a huge problem with data. The British government is logging all people who have been given Tamiflu as having swine flu and therefore the swine flu numbers are likely to be grossly inflated.Dr John Crippen, NHS Blog Doctor3. Swine Flu Drugs Useless And Dangerous, Particularly For ChildrenChildren should not be treated with flu drugs like Tamiflu since there is no clear evidence they prevent complications and the medicines may do more harm than good, British researchers said on Monday. They called for a rethink of current widespread use of antivirals among under-12s in the light of an analysis of clinical data from past seasonal flu outbreaks showing scant benefits and potentially harmful side effects. In Britain, hundreds of thousands of doses of Tamiflu have been handed out to people with the disease, of whom around half are children.Ben Hirschler, Reuters All it takes is just one vaccine to forever change your life. - Dawn, mother of vaccine damaged child. recommends that you upgrade to the new and safer Internet Explorer 8.
