According to Kathleen Sebelius, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, your children should be the first target for mass swine flu vaccinations when school starts this fall.
This is a ridiculous assumption for many reasons, not to mention extremely high risk.
In Australia, where the winter season has begun, Federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon is reassuring parents the swine flu is no more dangerous than regular seasonal flu. "Most people, including children, will experience very mild symptoms and recover without any medical intervention," she said.
Sydney-based immunization specialist Robert Booy predicts swine flu might be fatal to about twice as many children in the coming year as regular influenza. Booy estimates 10-12 children could die from the H1N1 virus, compared with the five or six regular flu deaths seen among children in an average year in Australia.
Less than 100 children in the U.S. die each year from seasonal flu viruses. If we use Australia’s math, a very rough estimate would be another 100 children could potentially die of swine flu in the United States in the coming year.
If children are the first target group in the U.S. per Sebelius, that means we’re about to inject around 75 million children with a fast tracked vaccine containing novel adjuvants, including dangerous squalene, to prevent perhaps 100 deaths.
I’m not overlooking the tragedy of the loss of even one child to an illness like the H1N1 flu virus. But there can be no argument that unnecessary mass injection of millions of children with a vaccine containing an adjuvant known to cause a host of debilitating autoimmune diseases is a reckless, dangerous plan.
I couldn't agree with you more.Im sick also of the media worrying everyone else about Swine Flu.Unless your Kermit the Frog about to meet Miss Piggy theres no reason to be worried!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can speak a little about the situation in Canada. The swine flue is dis-proportiantely striking otherwise healthy adults ( 50% of those affected are an average age of 35) , pregnant women and scariest of all, Aboriginal peoples are discovering that they are very susceptible to the virus.
ReplyDeleteWhat you need to understand, is that right now, the reason why more people aren't dying, is because those who fall sick and are being hospitalized, are being placed on ventilators and remain on those ventilators, until they recover.
Once more people fall sick than there are ventilators, that is when the 2% to 6% of all people who get the flu will start to die.
When 4% of all people between the age of 30 and 40 years old start to die, I suspect that people will remember with great fondness, when they believed that the swine flue was over hyped.
I believe the science. H1n1 is coming and I for one, will be getting a vaccine.
RC, your point seems to be counter to what the Australian Health Minister said of the swine flu: "Most people, including children, will experience very mild symptoms and recover without any medical intervention."
ReplyDeleteYou will believe swine flu was overhyped, when you realise they tricked you into getting a vaccine that might kill or severely debilitate you...
ReplyDeleteNo vaccine for me, thanks. The main concern is whether we will have a chance to opt out or whether these 'lifesaving' 'medicines' will be administered at gunpoint if necessary.
Don't trust the medical industrial complex. They thrive on your poor health, they need you to be ill for their profit to roll in.
Vaccines did not save us: 2 centuries of official statistics
