Monday, March 16, 2020.... "National Emergency" under Stafford Act declared by Pres. Trump recently.
Chinese Coronavirus / COVID-19 virus pandemic. Sun., March 15, Trump speaks from White House with "Coronavirus Task Force", including Fauci of CDC. Trump tells American people to *RELAX*, relax, relax. Please stop panic-induced OVER-buying of needed supplies for expected 2, - 3 week "lock-down" / "self-quarantine in place or at home".... We're told to avoid large public gatherings, and large sports events, including NBA basketball games shut down.... People are panicking, and it looks like the OVER-reactions of people may be doing more harm than good, and may even be doing more harm than the Covid-19 virus itself!.... It makes ME feel safer and more secure, to be here with my FRIENDS at AoA, and writing this brief report/update.... remain CALM, people. LAUGH! Laughter is the BEST MEDICINE, as I used to read in the "Reader's Digest" magazine when I used to visit my Grandmother's house....
KEEP UP the GOOD WORK, PEOPLE!....

Great article Wayne! "The families knew." They sure do!

I find Dorit pure evil - selling her soul for pharma $. Just not sure why anyone listens to her. I wouldn't even ask her for directions, let alone health advice. Dorit, Craig Egan, Karen Ernst and most pharma trolls' ugly insides match their ugly outsides.

John,

I've commented about that Couric blog several times in the last week or so. It was absolutely unbelievable. Thousands of comments on it after her show interviewing the mothers of two girls, one killed and one severely injured, by Gardasil. Hundreds of them testimonials by the parents of the girls, and a few boys, who had severe reactions. Massive attacks on the vaccine-injured and their parents, and on Katie Couric for having enabled the conversation. She put up another article about the benefits of Gardasil, but that wasn't enough. They made her delete the whole thing, along with its thousands of comments. Can't have the public made aware of how dangerous the HPV vaccine is. And yes, I think Dorit is always well-mannered, and it's better than the more usual insults.

I have a friend whose daughter asked me for vaccine information several years ago to prepare for a debate. She won, taking the anti-vax side, but it turned out she didn't believe a word of it. None of the members of her family do. They asked me about Gardasil a few years ago, and I sent them a lot of information, bottom line, No way. The girl said in what I think was supposed to show how mature she was, Well, IF I were to get involved with a boy at some time in the distant future, I DON'T want to risk getting cervical cancer. And she was prepared to go get the vaccine, so she could have sex with no more than the usual worries. In my earlier generation, I guess I was like that when, before going to Mexico for the first time at 19, I voluntarily and very maturely and calmly decided to go to the student health clinic and get a tetanus booster and the first of two typhoid shots. And got both arms paralyzed starting the same day and set in motion the process which resulted in my MS.

It's hard to know what to say or do to wake people up. We had a beautiful, very nice neighbor, who died of cervical cancer when C was two months old. I had a university friend whose niece died of it when she was only 28. A former roommate's daughter had pre-cancerous lesions detected by Pap test when she was in her twenties. I just read in The HPV Vaccine on Trial about an actress in a show called Big Brother, Jade something, who died of cervical cancer when she was only 28, leaving two children. I don't want to downplay the risk of a horrible death from cervical cancer if you don't take the appropriate steps.

But the appropriate steps should be to get Pap and ESPECIALLY DNA/RNA tests done at whatever interval seems appropriate after researching it, if you're sexually active. Practice safe and judicious sex. You should do those things even IF you get the vaccine: there are many strains of HPV not covered by the vaccine, and they recommend that you keep getting tested regardless. So what's the point? It's easy to look it up on the computer and find a lot of reliable information on the huge number of girls, and some boys, disabled or killed by the vaccine. Why would anyone want to risk that when there are better ways to deal with the risk? And getting HPV and then recovering from it, as nearly everyone does, offers protection from cervical lesions.

I think it comes down to excessive, misplaced trust in the medical establishment. It's shocking how many people think that drugs and vaccines are extensively tested and proven safe except for that unfortunate one in a million. And shocking that people will say Well, Dr. -- recommended it, as though that were that, sure, put your life in his hands and trust his recommendation.

I don't think Dorit takes pleasure in the pain of others. Her allegiance has been given to pharma companies and philosophy, and so she promotes their interests. She tells herself that vaccines can prevent death and disability, and that much is true. She is dishonest in her purported disbelief in vaccine reactions, or her stance that such reactions result in less suffering overall than the diseases would if they occurred. I think it would be good to ask how you feel about a lawyer's defending someone on trial who he believes to be guilty as charged. I wouldn't do it, but isn't our legal system based on providing those charged with crimes with legal representation?

I think the core problem is that when severe reactions occur, as Dr. Moskowitz says, it is the rule rather than the exception that it takes a long time for the damage to manifest. Sometimes it's an immediate anaphylactic reaction, but usually it takes days, weeks, months, even years, for the immune system to follow its new damaging programming caused by the vaccine(s). And it takes both an individual predisposition to reaction AND the trigger of the vaccine. But it makes it very hard to establish beyond the shadow of a doubt that vaccines caused it. Everyone has to know that and only permit vaccines which after careful study he thinks are for diseases dangerous enough and possible enough to justify the risk. And he still may wind up making the wrong decision in light of eventual, unpredictable events.

It took me a long time to find and process the information which explained what caused my daughter's autism, even though I had been troubled for years thinking about her screaming for sixteen hours a day for four days and nights from day four to day eight after being given the hep-B vaccine at the hospital at birth. And then when I read about vaccine encephalitis caused by that vaccine in thousands of other newborns, often causing that same screaming syndrome, I realized. And then it was years thinking about my MS before I came to an understanding of what happened. Even though I had both arms paralyzed for several days starting the same day as a tetanus booster. It was still after years of being apparently recovered that I got a high fever in Italy which started my extreme permanent insomnia (for the first time in my life). A year later before I got transient double vision in times of stress. Then another year before I had a really hard time in the Yucatan because of the extreme heat. Weakness, dizziness. Then two months later extreme dizziness, weakness, and numbness in the left side of my tongue which spread to all the left side of my face. And the doctor thought it was from stress, saying as a warning that if I insisted it was of concern, the next step would be an MRI. But it just got worse, and the MRI showed lesions in my brain characteristic of multiple sclerosis. In one attack my left arm and leg were completely paralyzed for about a month. Attacks of MS are brought on by stress, physical fatigue, fever, or environmental heat. So are mercury attacks, which, after reading The Age of Autism, I realized was what had caused my MS. It was the screaming syndrome after my first DPT at three months old which caused my Asperger's.

Dr. Moskowitz quotes Schoenfeld (Vaccines and Autoimmunity). on p. 66 in Dr. M's book Vaccines, "In 1982, epidemiological, clinical, and animal research showed that Guillain-Barré syndrome and other demyelinating, autoimmune neuropathies, such as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and multiple sclerosis, could occur up to ten months following vaccination.
In such cases, the disease would first manifest with vague symptom, like arthralgias, myalgias, paresthesias, and weakness, which were frequently deemed insignificant and ignored by the treating physicians. These would progress slowly and insidiously until the patient was exposed to a seconday immune stimulus, an infection or vaccination, which would then trigger the acute disease. It was the secondary response that would bring about the overt manifestation of an already present but subclinical, long-term, persistent disease. A typical vaccine formulation contains all the necessary biochemical components to induce autoimmune manifestations."

Another important quote from Schoenfeld, also in Dr. M's book on p. 75: "The fact that vaccines are delivered to billions of people without preliminary screening for underlying susceptibility is of concern. It is naive to believe that all humans are alike. Autoimmune diseases have increasingly been recognized as having a genetic basis, mediated by HLA subtypes. For instance, celiac disease has been strongly associated with either of two haplotypes, MS with another, rheumatoid arthritis with two others, and type 1 diabetes with yet another. Thus certain genes create a genetic predisposition toward developing an autoimmune disease, and typically requiring some environmental trigger to evolve into a full-blown disease."

I don't think we should get angry at the shills. They are hired salesmen. Accused criminals in the US (and, I assume, in developed countries in general) have a right to legal counsel and if they cannot afford it, one will be appointed for them. To the extent that most people feel respect for doctors and lawyers, and most would be happy and proud if their daughter were to marry one, they occupy a respected position in society. But it is the responsibility of every single individual to remain aware that they are hired guns and often do not act with the interests of the individual in mind. That's where the buck stops.

We need to work on getting laws passed which require genetic testing using the screens now available, including haploid analysis, with discussion of the results with parents or other prospective vaccinees, without which it would not be legally permitted to give any vaccine. And insistence on the legal protection given by the Nuremberg code and Helsinki declaration. Free and informed consent (or refusal) of any vaccine. I have never had genetic testing done, but I'm sure that I and every member of my family have gene profiles indicating that vaccines are more dangerous for us than for most. MS and encephalitic screaming syndrome in me, encephalitic screaming syndrome in my daughter and then having her only two words erased as soon as she got the DTaP booster, my father paralyzed by a flu vaccine, then bowel disease after a high fever when she was seven, my mother with Alzheimer's from a flu vaccine and bowel disease and Asperger's after she got the diphtheria vaccine at four years old, my nephew with Asperger's and later bowel disease after a bout with bronchitis with a high fever, my brother with POTS, fainting at work and when he was running (doctors had no idea what caused it).

But the buck stops with the individual, who has the responsibility to use the many ways we have now to inform ourselves. The shills are just doing what all paid salesmen do, I don't think it's appropriate to blame them.

Bob Moffit: re the Boeing 737, if you check the timeline, your government did NOT not act swiftly and forcefully, nor did it immediately acknowledge that something was seriously amiss. In fact, "the United States [was] the last country to allow flights of the Boeing 737 MAX fleet after at least 47 countries and multiple airlines grounded the aircraft" (ABC news).

The government's initial position was that the aircraft had not been demonstrated to be unsafe — a position which pretty much echoes the official government position on vaccines. Unfortunately, in the case of vaccines, the international community is still largely on board with the U.S. position.

It should also be widely known that Dorit and David (as in Gorski) do not believe that Round Up should be banned from CA college campuses. I’m too lazy to extract the tweet, but it’s there. According to the scientific wizzes that Dorit and David are, glyphosate is not carcinogenic, and no child has ever been killed by a vaccine. Got it.
