H1N1 - the girl who kicked the hornet's nest

[marta]

Hey gang, just writing an email to a CBC reporter on this exact topic. He's doing a story about it and I got hooked up with him through a BBC reporter who knows Brian. I've been digging a little deeper with this, and apparently our government in their infinite wisdom aproved the squalene adjuvant which the FDA did not alow the US to have in theirs. That's the adjuvant associated with the Gulf War Syndrome as Sangye's earlier post showed (an aray of AI diseases), but our government and a few in Europe (Sweden, Norway, and a couple more) thought that the risk/benefit was worth 'protecting us all'. So it makes sense that those of you in the States didn't see anything as well as those in England. It's us lucky Canadians, and a couple of Weggies I've spoken to in Sweden, so who knows. I'm still convinced that this is where the ball dropped in my particular case, and I feel slightly betrayed by the folks who are supposed to keep us safe.

[Sangye]

Yes, squalene is highly controversial. If you go to www. nvic.org (National Vaccine Info Center) and put squalene in the search box, you'll get lots of good articles about it.

I understand your feeling of betrayal, Marta. Any of us who've been damaged by vaccines feel that way.

Heard on the radio today that the flu season in the southern hemisphere this year is pretty mild.(so far). That has in the past been a pretty good indicator of how the flu season will be here in the U.S. They also said that some university I believe in Texas is working on a Vaccine that will fight all or most influenza for 5 to 10 years. They said it targets influenza in general and not a specific strain.

I do not want to get a flu vaccine this year and the fact that they are calling for a mild season makes my choice easier.

I hear ya Marta. I have to get the meningococcal vaccine if I want the Implants.

I hate to say this but our modern medical system has been hijacked by the elitists of the world to gain a better control over the whole population. Kind of like media and other big businesses.

[Sangye]

Phil, you mean it's a requirement for you to get the vaccine??

[pberggren1]

Yes it is Sangye. At least that is the way I understood it. With no hearing it is difficult to communicate with others. My doc hear said it would be safe to take because it is the dead vaccine. He said I should stay away from all live vaccines. He did say though that he doubts the vaccine will do any good. The surgeon said I would be on antibiotics before, during, and after the surgery just to be safe. He said infections are extremely rare. He said he has had only one other really complicated case like me and the implants were very successful. He said too if I have any questions just fax them to his office and he will get back to me.

[Sangye]

That's ridiculous, especially given the fact that it's not even likely to work.

I agree and I will be discussing this again with my doc on the 19th.
