US vaccine makers immune to probes - WHY ???????????

November 22, 2005

Well, if the vaccines are for our "greater good" then why the veil of secrecy around the whole project? What is there to hide if we are indeed doing something that is "beneficial" to humanity? A new US government agency concerned with Vaccines etc. is the only one to be exempt from the US's Freedom of Information Act. The Agency's decisions about Freedom of Information Act as applicable in each case, will not even be open to Judicial scrutiny !Why ??????????????????????????????? I think we should have the right to know what goes on behind the scenes. Because almost all the vaccines we regularly give our children come from the US. Let us not be made guinea pigs. Are our doctors listening??? We need answers please. The explanation offered seems more like a cover up. I would request

the departments concerned to take a close hard look at the imported vaccines, each and every batch, so that the African scenario is not repeated in India.=========================NEWS ITEM-------------------A bill now before the Senate would create a new executive branch agency that would become the first-ever government agency granted total immunity from disclosure of information under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2005, would create a new Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Agency (BARDA). Under the proposed bill, not even the courts could force BARDA to reveal information requested under FOIA -- an unprecedented level of secrecy.http://usgovinfo.about.com/od/rightsandfreedoms/a/bardabill.htm?nl=1
