Via poison or dagger (abortion) these UN people must really want population control very badly. Funny how they hide their dirty deeds behind a cloak of virtue.

My thoughts exactly, united nation's agenda of population control and in such a sneaky way. So often evil is mixed with a touch of good making it so easy to be deceived.

Somebody at the Vitamin formulation plant transposed a decimal place or two, resulting in ten or one hundred or one thousand times the RDA.

Maybe taking vitamins is a serious health risk!

Morbidity and Mortality after Polio vaccination in Assam -------------------------------------------------------- CALCUTTA: At least 10 children have died in India's northeastern state of Assam of side effects after being administered a vaccine during an polio immunisation campaign run by the state government. More than 500 children have been admitted to government and private hospitals after falling sick. Angry groups of parents have surrounded offices of the local administration in protest in Assam's southern city of Silchar. On Sunday, thousands of children were administered a polio vaccine throughout Assam and the rest of the country. But within a day of the massive polio immunisation campaign, reports have come in of large-scale side effects in and around the city of Silchar in southern Assam. Officials say 9 children have died in one village -- Labok -- while one died in Malugram locality of Silchar.

Non-governmental organisations in Silchar who assist the government in this campaign say outdated vaccines were possibly supplied in some areas. But officials were not willing to speculate on the causes of the large-scale side effects.

Sure is for vitamin A. It was a leading cause of death among early Arctic explorers who ignored Eskimo instructions not to eat the livers of polar bears or seals. It concentrates to highly lethal levels in these locations.

More U.N. sponcered population control efforts? Just remember the liberal mantra "It's for the children". If this proves to be caused by the U.N., punishments must be severe.

A couple decades ago, a Union Carbide plant in some southeast Asian country leaked gas and killed and injured a number of people. The company had to pay out billions and the media pilloried it.

I suppose the same media types will be quick to forgive the UN. And good luck collecting settlements, moms and dads.

What about the World Health Organization and their "eradication" of smallpox? Think that's going to come back and bite us (thus attaining the population control crowd's wishes?)

I have been told that taking any vitamin in isolation from the others can have disasterous results. I'm not an M.D., but my guess is their livers were unable to process the excess Vitamin A.

Bush May Order Everyone Injected With Smallpox Vaccine

If Bush orders everyone in America injected with smallpox vaccine, will the recipients get AIDS, like the people in Africa did when W.H.O. gave them smallpox "vaccine," or might they get something worse?  Remember Gulf War Syndrome!

Just remember, the modern vaccine uses human fetal cells in it's production, and if the proposed law passes and you refuse to take it, you are subject to imprisonment and confiscation of all private property.

Uncle Sam's smallpox vaccine? I'd rather drink the Kool-Aid.
