Swine flu jab link to killer nerve disease...

Leaked letter reveals concern of neurologists over 25 deaths in America

A warning that the new swine flu jab is linked to a deadly nerve disease has been sent by the Government to senior neurologists in a confidential letter. The letter from the Health Protection Agency, the official body that oversees public health, has been leaked to The Mail on Sunday, leading to demands to know why the information has not been given to the public before the vaccination of millions of people, including children, begins.

It tells the neurologists that they must be alert for an increase in a brain disorder called Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), which could be triggered by the vaccine.

I can’t address the issue of Vitamin D preventing vaccine side effects but it certainly can’t hurt them. If I were you, I would advise your daughters to inform their medical department that they “just learned” that a relative on your side of the family experienced a serious side effect from the ‘76 flu vaccine and your personal physician stateside advised you that they probably shouldn’t take any flu shots in the future.

(”side effect” = witnessing the results scared the living bejesus out of you, lol)

Just a thought! Good luck!

This bothers me beyond words. Another wag the dog to do what?? Push HEALTH CARE? Enforce Martial Law? Steal another election? Exactly what is this about?

I DO NOT TRUST THIS Government and especially the NEWS MEDIA.

Well, when they use rotting monkey kidneys and an assortment of other gruesome ingredients to make the vaccine, I guess pesky side effects occur.

In this case, it’s not going to be as clear-cut as 1976. Although I’m sure it wasn’t clear-cut back then at first, either.

If we had the same rates of GBS as in 1976, and EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the USA got a shot (never gonna happen), we’d have around 180 deaths and a total of 3.750 detected cases of GBS.

And we only had ONE death from swine flu in 76.

THIS influenza has ALREADY killed almost 500 Americans. And that’s in the non-flu season! It will be much worse during flu season, and it’ll be far worse than that if we get any nasty mutations.

Statistically, based on those figures, so far it looks more likely to me that you will die from influenza without a shot than get GBS with a shot.

Of course, you may also be able to do other things to mitigate the severity of possibly getting the flu. Like the vitamin D and other helpful things that have been suggested. So if you’re able to reduce your risk of dying from the flu, you might come out better than getting the shot.

Just some thoughts off the top of my head with just a little bit of analysis.

H1N1 vaccine = an overpopulation solution. And a source of death taxes to help balance the budget.

The solution to the problem is worse than the problem.

From the story:
Within days, symptoms of GBS were reported among those who had been immunised and 25 people died from respiratory failure after severe paralysis. One in 80,000 people came down with the condition. In contrast, just one person died of swine flu.
As a result of the vaccinations?
More than 40 million Americans had received the vaccine by the time the programme was stopped after ten weeks. The US Government paid out millions of dollars in compensation to those affected.
So, of 40,000,000 people vaccinated, there were 25, or one in 1,600,000, who died from this condition (which may or may not have been a result of the vaccine) versus one in 40,000,000 who died from what they were vaccinated against. Sounds like it worked.

From further down in the story after the mention of a "possible" eight-fold increase in GBS while discussing the etiology of GBS and saying that no one really knows how it is caused:
However, it is thought that one in a million people who have a seasonal flu vaccination could be at risk and it has also been linked to people recovering from a bout of flu of any sort.
If the usual rate of GBS following a seasonal flu vaccination is 1:1,000,000 and that of those getting it following the immunization for swine flu is 1:160,000,000, then one could say that getting the vaccination reduced their risk of getting GBS to 1/160 of that of other flu-vaccinated people. So the overall message of this story is that not only is your chance of getting a potentially deadly swine flu greatly reduced by the vaccination, so are your chances of getting GBS.

That’s terrible, I’m interested i hearing about it more. This whole swine flu/vaccine thing is really strange. Just seems like there is more to this story than we know.

It’s flu season in Austrailia and they’ve had 12 deaths. In 2002 3,000 men & women died of the flu.

My husband was in the Air Force and always got the flu shot. He got the flu. I refused the flu shot and I think I have only had it once in my life.

Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS),

A family member suffered and luckily recovered from this in the 1960s. Do not wish that on anyone. The only reason for his survival was excellent care at Texas Children's Hospital, Houston.

I remember getting the 76 flu shot. It was the first time I ever had a shot with one of those jet needle that they said wouldn't hurt. It hurt. I also remember the Guillain-Barre that followed. I always thought this played a part in Ford not getting re-elected. Yes the Nixon pardon affected people, but this was very personal. getting a mandated shot and they being paralyzed is not a confidence builder.
