Urgent lawsuit filed against FDA to halt swine flu vaccines; claims FDA violated federal law

(NaturalNews) Health freedom attorney Jim Turner is filing a lawsuit in Washington D.C. mid-day Friday in an urgent effort to halt the distribution of the swine flu vaccine in America. On behalf of plaintiffs Dr. Gary Null and other licensed health care workers of New York State, the lawsuit charges that the FDA violated the law in its hasty approval of four swine flu vaccines by failing to scientifically determine neither the safety nor efficacy of the vaccines.

"The suit will seek an injunction against the FDA from approving the vaccine," attorney Jim Turner told NaturalNews on Thursday evening's Natural News Talk Hour show. "And the core of the argument is that they have not done the proper safety and efficacy tests on the vaccine to allow it to be release at this time."

The suit seeks to not only nullify the FDA's unlawful "approval" of the four H1N1 influenza vaccines, but to also ask the court to issue an injunction that would halt any mandatory vaccination requirements.

"The FDA is required by law to establish that a vaccine is safe and effective before it can be given to the public," said Turner. "We are arguing that they did not establish that the vaccine was effective, and did not establish that it was safe. They are trying to get it on the market by a waiver."

Vaccine / adjuvant combination has never been properly tested

The vaccine / adjuvant combination being referred to as the "swine flu vaccine" has apparently never been safety tested or approved by the FDA. In fact, in many cases the vaccine is being sent to clinics, pharmacies and other health establishments separately from the adjuvant chemical, leaving it up to each local vaccine retailer to properly mix the vaccine with the adjuvant, according to information provided by Turner. With hundreds of millions of Americans potentially being targeted with this vaccine, the potential for improper mixing, improper dosages, and human error is alarming.

If the charges described in the lawsuit are true, it means the FDA has blatantly abandoned medical science and violated its own regulations in approving not only these four vaccines, but the potentially deadly adjuvant chemicals as well. To date, the FDA has produced absolutely no scientific evidence documenting safety tests for any of these swine flu vaccines. There are no published studies, no records of any clinical trials, and no publicly-available paper trail demonstrating that any safety testing was done whatsoever. There is no researcher who has publicly put their name on the record declaring the vaccines to be safe, and no FDA official has ever stated that scientifically-valid safety testing has ever been conducted on the vaccine / adjuvant combinations now being distributed across America.

Normally, when a pharmaceutical achieves "FDA approved" status, there is a considerable paper trail of scientific scrutiny, peer review, clinical trials and other supporting evidence. To our knowledge, no such documents exist for the swine flu vaccines. The FDA's approval of these vaccines appears to be based entirely on a whim.

"What has been tested?" asked attorney Jim turner. "Where has it been tested? Who reviewed the test? Who looked at the test and said yes they proved safety and efficacy? There is no record that we can find that shows these things have been done."

By approving the four vaccines in the absence of such safety testing, the FDA itself stands in direct violation of federal law. "There is a law that they're supposed to follow and they are not following it," Turner added.

Billions of dollars are at stake

Why, then, did the FDA apparently violate the law and push these vaccines into full public distribution without securing the safety testing required by law? Turner suspects a profit motive may be involved: "They're charging $24.95 to get a vaccine. Multiplied by 100 million people, that's a lot of money. If you do the whole society, you're talking about several billion dollars."

In fact, the U.S. vaccination push could ultimately target over 200 million Americans, generating nearly $5 billion in vaccine-related revenues. Cashing in on those revenues, however, requires three things:

1) Spreading fear about H1N1 swine flu by exaggerating its dangers.

2) Quickly making a vaccine available for sale, even if it has never been thoroughly tested for safety and efficacy.

3) Aggressively marketing the vaccines before the H1N1 swine flu fizzles out and can no longer be hyped up as "highly virulent."

All three of these conditions are now being pushed aggressively in the U.S. by pharma-influenced health authorities at both the state and federal level. There is a mad, cult-like rush under way to vaccinate American citizens with an unproven, untested chemical that was thrust into distribution in apparent violation of federal law. And if this vaccine is not stopped, the price that may ultimately be paid in terms of lost lives could be quite dire.

It all harkens back to 1976 when a previous formulation of the swine flu vaccine paralyzed and killed thousands of Americans. Turner was one of the attorneys instrumental in halting that vaccine, and he fears a repeat situation could potentially recur today. He told NaturalNews, "[In 1976] they were intending to inoculate 200 million people. We stopped them... and somewhere between 40 and 50 million people were vaccinated. What ultimately brought it down is that a substantial number of people got 'French Polio' [Guillain-Barre syndrome], a paralysis that goes... through the body, and if it goes far enough you die."

Then your "doc" will have a serious lawsuit on his hands the first time one of his patients denied the vaccine dies from the swine flu... a death that could have been prevented.

Just because this doctor is refusing to administer this vaccine does not mean that they are being denied it. They can go elsewhere (for now!). I am failing to follow your logic.

My doc is refusing to give it to patients.

Then your "doc" will have a serious lawsuit on his hands the first time one of his patients denied the vaccine dies from the swine flu...

Not necessarily. There are plenty of alternative sources for the vaccine - almost every pharmacy in the country will make it available. Therefore, no one who truly wants it will be denied access to the vaccine.

I’ve been feeling sick, crappy and depressed for almost a year now. Oh Wait! That’s not the flu, that’s 0bama.

[mysterio]

More woo-woo BS.

I also have concerns about squalene, due to autoimmune disorders being associated with it. I already have rheumatoid arthritis, and certainly don’t want anything else.

Squalene is apparently only potentially toxic when injected, as in a vaccine. When given by mouth, if I remember correctly, it is not a problem.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions.
The littlest was the sickest, but doing much better today.
The oldest doesn’t have a good immune system so I’m making a list and heading to the store. I’m going to search more on vitamin D for her, she was using a B complex for energy in the afternoon.

I was achey, tired, and feverish yesterday and I did 4 drop of the oregano oil in juice twice and I feel fine today.
I had put 4 drops under my tongue before that and it burns and taste horrible, I can tolerate it in the juice.

A jury will usually rule in favor of the injured, especially in the face of expert witnesses testifying in favor of vaccinations.

Our doc warned our husband NOT to get the H1N1 flu shot. He said “It has not been tested adequately,” and that the regular flu is stronger at this point that the Swine Flu.

My family was innoculated with the swine flu vaccine in 1976. My brother became so ill in his dorm room post vaccine that he had horrible halucinations from a very high fever. 2.5 years later, my mother was diagnosed with an aggressive case of rheumatoid arthritis. 20 years later upon receiving my first flu vaccine since 1976, I had severe tachychardia and nearly passed out. I have no way to prove the connections but I am not going to be vaccinated and neither are my children.

Have you done any research on these products?If so,got any links?

Actually, no I haven’t, formally! The oscillo is a homeopathic remedy which I have known about for years for flu, and every year I go and buy a fresh one “just in case”. This is the first year we have had to use it (and we used plenty!).

The Sambucol is actually something I read about here on FR back in the spring when H1N1 first hit the US, and I went out and bought some, again, “just in case”. I kept it in the fridge until the day my son got sick, then I bought another bottle and we all started taking it.

The Emergen-C is something I always have in the cabinet for times when there is anything dubious going around, we all drink it for a couple of days to boost our immune systems, but in this case (the flu), I followed the dosing recommendations of a mother in our homeschooling group who is a whiz with natural remedies , we call her (jokingly) “Doc”. She also clued us in to the powers of fresh garlic, which I had heard about from time to time, but because she recommended it, we actually tried it. It was tasty, I’ll tell you that!
Hope this helps!

I didn’t mean to rip on you for your decision. You may have had a legitimate concern to go. But just in general, I feel people are better off just not going to the doctor for colds and flu. Even if it is only a little money out of pocket (or free)- one’s time is better spent recuperating at home rather than dragging yourself to the doctor while feeling miserable, waiting amongst other sick people where you could pick something else up or spread your illness to others. And while it only cost you $20 out of pocket, rest assured the doctor got paid about $200 for 10 minutes (was it even that?) to do NOTHING for you!
