Roadmap to Hell
These are my comments as UK and European Editor of Age of Autism on the European Commission document 'Roadmap: Strengthened cooperation against vaccine preventable diseases'. This is one of 368 comments, which are overwhelmingly negative to the project:
This project is misconceived in several dimensions. While it latches on to the issue of measles and flu mortality the number of diseases which could be defined as “vaccine preventable” is open ended, as is the number of vaccine products that the vaccine industry hopes to be licensed, and recommended for use or mandated – at the present time hundreds of different products are in development [1] purely on the principle that there will be a captive, or quasi-captive market available when they are ready to be marketed. The drive for more compliance and more products is not coming from citizens but from the industry and bureaucrats. At a simplistic level anyone could agree that preventing disease is a good thing (though some may have long term health benefits) but it could not be true at any cost to the population. There is no scientific or historical model for subjecting a population to an ever-expanding schedule of vaccine products. This is simply becoming the biggest human experiment in history.
As the schedule expands it would be rational to consider that perhaps some diseases are not so dangerous, or not so common, and that some of the products may not be so effective or safe – and by now there are already a great many. It may also be by now that the population is not so well from the proliferation of chronic diseases, mental ill-health and neuro developmental disorders. The possible relationship between these manifestations and the expanding schedule have been flippantly dismissed and attempts to research it have been persecuted. We do not presently have institutions which are as capable of protecting the public interest as that of the industry. But the pioneering recent paper by Mawson et al which attempted to address the problem reported [2]:
A convenience sample of 666 children was obtained, of which 261 (39%) were unvaccinated. The vaccinated were less likely than the unvaccinated to have been diagnosed with chickenpox and pertussis, but more likely to have been diagnosed with pneumonia, otitis media, allergies and NDD. After adjustment, vaccination, male gender, and preterm birth remained significantly associated with NDD. However, in a final adjusted model with interaction, vaccination but not preterm birth remained associated with NDD, while the interaction of preterm birth and vaccination was associated with a 6.6-fold increased odds of NDD (95% CI: 2.8, 15.5). In conclusion, vaccinated homeschool children were found to have a higher rate of allergies and NDD than unvaccinated homeschool children. While vaccination remained significantly associated with NDD after controlling for other factors, preterm birth coupled with vaccination was associated with an apparent synergistic increase in the odds of NDD. Further research involving larger, independent samples and stronger research designs is needed to verify and understand these unexpected findings in order to optimize the impact of vaccines on children’s health.
Leslie et al reported [3]:
Results...Subjects with newly diagnosed AN (anorexia nervosa) were more likely than controls to have had any vaccination in the previous 3 months [hazard ratio (HR) 1.80, 95% confidence interval 1.21–2.68]. Influenza vaccinations during the prior 3, 6, and 12 months were also associated with incident diagnoses of AN, OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder), and an anxiety disorder. Several other associations were also significant with HRs greater than 1.40 (hepatitis A with OCD and AN; hepatitis B with AN; and meningitis with AN and chronic tic disorder).
There has been much concern recently about the aluminium components of many vaccines, paediatric as well as the HPV vaccines: these issues have not been resolved [4,5,6,7], and should not be dismissed – nor should some irrevocable policy be launched without all the evidence being considered, without further research being done [8,9,10]. Only liars and profiteers say the science is in – the science is never in.
Presently, in the UK – where we have high vaccine compliance although no mandates - we are drowning cases of mental ill-health and neuro-developmental disability. Media reports, however, tend to focus on the absence of resources to deal with the problems rather than causes. Another vital and catastrophic question hovers: how could it all be economically - let alone humanly – sustainable [11]. Driving ahead with the policy without paying attention to its serious consequences has to be considered reckless and headstrong.
Given the reality that everyone ultimately dies of something is the policy to focus on such diseases as measles and flu necessarily wise, or a distortion of policy? In the United Kingdom, the country in which Andrew Wakefield is held to have undermined the vaccine programme, only 4 people have died of measles since 1992 according to official statistics (that is out of about 13m deaths) [12]. Flu mortality is higher but still comparatively insignificant. In 2009 when the Chief Medical Officer was challenged over the projections annual flu deaths in the tens of thousands he admitted that there had only been 132 deaths in the four preceding years – an average of 33 a year out of above 500,000 deaths (about 1 in 15,000) [13]. Realistically, the statistical insignificance of actual flu deaths (as against projections in the thousands) needs to be weighed against such issues as the notorious inefficacy of the vaccines [14]. We do not even know how many of the 132 were not vaccinated.
Another question which the promoters of such policies need to face and address is that not only are they placing their views above ordinary citizens and their historic rights (informed consent etc.[15]) but the extent to which making ever more demands on the public might in itself lead to more resistance, more private reading, more scepticism about the wisdom, integrity and motives of those trying to force the matter. The introduction of mandates in Italy has led to widespread protests – has brought tens of thousands of people on to the streets weekly - when before vaccination was not even an issue. It is a troubling prospect that the people we are increasingly having to regard as our rulers only want to raise the stakes.

In a brand new published study, the only science vouching for the “safety” of injected aluminum adjuvant has come under extreme criticism by heavyweight scientists. Dr. Robert J. Mitkus — author of the misleading aluminum safety study from 2011 — could change the autism debate forever by telling the truth.
ROCKVILLE, Maryland — While you were (hopefully) enjoying the winter holidays, a study was published in the Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry (it went online on December 27th) that could change the autism debate permanently. In fact, this new study placed the burden of proof for the safety of aluminum adjuvants used in vaccines so squarely on the shoulders of a lone FDA scientist — Dr. Robert J. Mitkus — that he alone could permanently change the outcome of the autism debate. Forever.

Sturgeon must explain low vaccination rates for Scottish NHS staff
8 Jan 2018
Nicola Sturgeon has been challenged to explain why vaccination rates for NHS staff in Scotland are falling below those elsewhere in the UK.
Speaking on Good Morning Scotland today, the First Minister sought to claim that vaccination rates for doctors, nurses and medical staff were higher than last year.
However, she did not explain why rates are so much lower than elsewhere in the UK, and below the set target.
The latest available figures for 2016-17 show that only 35 per cent of healthcare workers were vaccinated against flu. The target is 50 per cent – a level that has never been reached.
However, the comparable figure was 63 per cent for England and 49 per cent for Wales.
Scottish Conservative shadow health secretary Miles Briggs MSP said:
“Nicola Sturgeon tried to put a gloss on the SNP’s response to the winter flu crisis this morning but failed to explain why so few NHS staff in Scotland have been inoculated.
“Last year, only 35 per cent of healthcare workers were vaccinated against flu – below the target, and well below figures elsewhere in the UK.
“The impact of this is devastating – it means doctors and nurses unable to come into work, and patients suffering further delays as a result.
“The SNP was warned repeatedly about the impending flu crisis coming to Scotland and repeatedly failed to act on those warnings. It’s all very well the First Minister saying sorry now, but she needs to demonstrate that the SNP is getting a grip.”

The top third of the US and World economies have about 99% of the money and are complete fascists. They are NOT vaccinating their own children and have not done so for decades. The bottom two thirds of the world functions with the other 1%.
The little people of the USA are STILL expected to send whatever they have to Wall Street because the corporations do not ??? have enough money to function. Someday they might slowly give your money back to you, if the medical system cannot kill you before you retire.

Excellent letter! I'm glad you mentioned that some of the diseases have long term health benefits: I just finished the Moskowitz book last night, and he thinks that's the greatest tragedy of the vaccine debacle, the loss of the many health benefits accruing from going through the formerly universal childhood diseases naturally. He says the number of cases of cancer, heart disease, etc. etc., which would have been avoided had the people gotten measles, etc., is incalculable. He says what most of us say: everyone should be able to ask for and get the vaccines he wants, and not ask for or get those he doesn't. Free and informed choice.
Posted by: cia parker | January 03, 2018 at 05:16 PM
@John - "You need to look at it in terms of flow-charts with absolutely everything joined to everything else, but I am not sure it begins at any one point."
Why wouldn't you say the vaccine crisis begins with Pharma?
Pharma makes the vaccines, markets the vaccines, bribes the doctors, buys the media (conservative, liberal and alternative) through ads, contributes to the campaigns of politicians. Pharma profits from the vaccines and has no liability. Pharma has corrupted the vaccine court. Pharma is the puppetmaster.
That being said, I do think placing the right person to head an agency can make a difference. I've seen it happen. Just like a courageous editor can make a difference, or a brave politician (thought perhaps Bill Posey would be one, but not so much). Just like a brave doctor - like Andrew Wakefield -
can make a difference.

So funny! Originally I was going to try to post something along the lines of ...saying "strengthened cooperation" is almost as oxymoronic as saying "alomost oxymoroinc". However, reaching for the "soul of wit" got the better of me. Past comments of mine have taught me that should always be my goal. I believe it is the job of enlightened societies to protect children from ALL disease; infectious or otherwise, and pharma being able to control the language surrounding this issue has always been the downfall of those of us who assert that vaccine-induced autism is a huge problem. The label "anti-vaccine" has been perhaps pharma's most successful feat. To say that vaccines do cause autism has become synonymous with saying we should make no effort at all what-so-ever to protect a child from an infectious disease. I believe all ethical efforts should be made to protect all children from all harm.

@Gary
"The bureaucratic state is the main problem" What about Pharma? Isn't that the root of the problem?
Also, Trump has the authority to appoint the heads of the "bureaucratic state." He has appointed Tom Price (and now Alex Azar) to HHS; Scott Gottlieb to the FDA; Brenda Fitzgerald to the CDC. All are pro-vax and have deep industry ties. Why did he do this when other candidates were available? He could have chosen Robert F. Kennedy, for example. And before you say that Kennedy would have been opposed, note that Trump has gotten almost everyone he nominated approved, so I don't see that there were any barriers there.
And the head of an agency can make a difference - look at what some of his other appointees have done as heads of government agencies. So, Trump COULD do something about the autism epidemic, if he wanted to. He has obviously chosen not to.

Good point - certainly nearly an oxymoron and “strengthened coercion” might be a near tautology. The point I wanted to make is also how manipulative is the phrase “vaccine preventable disease”. The implication is that if you don’t instantly resort to vaccines to prevent diseases that might conceivably be prevented you are being irresponsible - except of course that there might be all sorts of other issues. But the biggest issue of all is you cannot trust the government-industrial complex - not with any of it. Even the abuse of language tells you you can’t.

John: Thanks! I doubt I'll ever again vote for any U.S. presidential candidate. It matters little anyway, since the bureaucratic state is the main problem, none of them elected, and most of them hiding the documentation of their crimes, despite FOIA, and commercial interests in charge, seemingly, in all the "free world." But events of the past two years, such as the battle here over forced vaccination, the Vaxxed tour, the purchase of all Italian children by GSK, and so forth, have educated many more people than ever before (except those brave Leicesterites of March 23, 1885). They simply won't get away with it. Neither in the UK nor U.S. can the military meet their recruiting goals, and it will only get worse, as pharma bankrupts governments one by one. I don't think people will stand for it much longer. Does this represent an abiding faith in the basic goodness of our fellow humans? Yes, and I still have that.

Yes, it is obviously an imposture. Of course, if you unleash anger or ridicule at anyone who speaks up it is only strategy for fixing the evidence (particularly if we are talking about the effects of medical products on humans). In real science there maybe some areas of reasonable certainty but the position of not looking at new evidence ought not to arise. And indeed here "the science" is based on multiple strategies of social/legal/political repression. It may be the people like Obama are so busy being on message - despite the intellectual exterior - that they bend and twist things without even thinking about it.
It is also, of course, a political strategy foisting responsibility for a disgusting and vile policy on "science" and specialist advice. And no politician wants to hear of the downside of their actions - the bureaucracy is there to cushion them against that.

Yes, we have socially and politically repressive measures for denying the harms of policy.

An excellent letter as always. Thank you John and let us all pray that Brexit will at least protect the UK from any future European legislation forcing mandatory vaccinations on member states.

Eric Blair forewarned us all of their plans. No one listened !

An apparent New World Order (NWO) numbering of the world’s population is in the works, which will affect and impact every human being on the planet from the first day of birth forward!
Below is a schematic of their ‘game plan’. It’s called the “ID2020 Alliance” and is the most comprehensive surveillance database probably to date and being implemented on a GLOBAL basis, as you can see from the International Organizations involved, governmental agencies feeding it statistical data, and the countries that will fund it.
If you look closely, you realize the importance vaccinations will play in that Alliance and the apparent role(s) Big Pharma will take in providing ever-increasing numbers of vaccines, which probably will never see legitimate scientific testing for safety and/or efficacy!
The other thing that jumps off the page is the apparent close relationship between GAVI and the UN’s UNICEF!

"We do not presently have institutions which are as capable of protecting the public interest as that of the industry"
Indeed .. the same here in the good old USA .. which is not an accident or grievous mistake of public health bureaucracies .. obviously ... the lack of "institutions protecting the public interest" is by DESIGN.
When will the MADDNESS END???

"This is simply becoming the biggest human experiment in history."
substitute the word "crime" for experiment and you are right on the money.

I don't buy into any of this numerology stuff necessarily (1 in 36 etc)
But really , who would choose a sample size of 666 ? why that number ?
"A convenience sample of 666 children was obtained"
