On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) of the United Nations declared a "Level 6" influenza pandemic, setting in motion the race to create a vaccine to "prevent the spread" of the novel H1N1 flu virus. Why the rush to create a vaccine when WHO figures reveal that five million have a severe case of the seasonal flu and an estimated 250,000 to 500,000 die annually despite record levels of flu vaccine produced and distributed last year? As of July 6, 2009, the WHO has cited 94,512 cases and 429 deaths attributed to the new H1N1 flu virus worldwide. This is a fraction of cases and deaths attributed to the seasonal flu each year. The WHO claims the number of cases and deaths are growing exponentially and decided to not make these figures available once the number of cases reached 100,000. The CDC has followed suit.

• Our country is preparing for mass flu shots this fall. There is a 99% probability that the new pandemic vaccine in production will be mandatory. HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has ordered 600 million doses of swine (H1N1) vaccine, two doses for nearly every man, woman and child in the U.S.

• State epidemiologists are recommending two doses of the pandemic vaccine in addition to the seasonal flu shot. State officials are slated with the task of maintaining public confidence in the pandemic flu vaccine program since serious adverse reactions are anticipated.

• The pandemic vaccine in production will contain an untested oil-in-water adjuvant (boosts antibody production) in order to create millions of doses from a small quantity of the alleged novel H1N1 virus.

• Investigative journalist Gary Matsumoto in his book, Vaccine A: The Covert Government Experiment That’s Killing Our Soldiers and Why GIs Are Only the First Victims, documents the results of clinical trials of oil-based adjuvants on lab animals tested at Fort Detrick, Maryland. After all lab animals suffered from severe arthritis and autoimmne disorders prior to a premature death, scientists concluded that an oil-based adjuvant should never be used in vaccines intended for humans. Despite this strong evidence, thousands of U.S. soldiers, beginning with Gulf War I, have been given anthrax vaccines containing varying amounts of the oil-based adjuvant, squalene. Many researchers have linked Gulf War Illness with the anthrax vaccines administered to our soldiers since many of those diagnosed were never deployed overseas. However, the Pentagon has ignored the problem, denied many veterans benefits and only publicly acknowledged the existence of Gulf War Illness in 2008.

*The Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2006 (also known as BioShield II) strips Americans of the right to a jury trial if harmed by an experimental drug or vaccine they are forced to take if WHO or government officials declare a public health emergency. Learning from the 1976 swine flu fiasco where hundreds of vaccine recipients got Guillain Barre syndrome (paralysis) or died, our own government wrote liability protection into the Act, if vaccine-related death or damage occurs. This provision gives our government and pandemic vaccine manufacturers no reason to create safe or effective vaccines or other counter-measure drugs for use in a declared emergency.

• Forced mandatory vaccination is akin to medical experimentation against a person’s will. Without informed consent, this a violation of two international agreements: The Nuremberg Code and the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki.

• HHS Secretary Sebelius has called on school superintendents to spend their summer turning their schools into vaccination clinics for the incoming students this fall. Anticipating a short supply of vaccine initially, target populations in order of priority are (1) all students and staff associated with schools (K-12th grade) and children (aged 6 months or older) and staff in child care centers, (2) pregnant women, children 6 months to 4 years of age, new parents and household contacts of children, (3) adults less than 65 years old with medical conditions that increase the risk of complications from influenza, and (4) health care workers and emergency services sector personnel.

Questions to ask your governor, state legislators, sheriff,

county commissioners and emergency response personnel:

Will state vaccine exemption laws apply if my child goes to school and they are vaccinating the school’s staff and students with the pandemic flu vaccine? Will informed and voluntary consent be obtained from parents prior to the administration of a seasonal or pandemic flu vaccine? Will our right to decline these shots based on our religious beliefs, or for health reasons—such as severe allergies/anaphylaxis to normal vaccine ingredients—be honored?

Many innovative alternative health companies have produced safe products that have worked successfully in preventing and/or minimizing the annual flu according to the experiences of thousands of consumers. The FDA recently spent their resources targeting any company who dared to make claims that their product may reduce the possibility of contracting the swine flu or minimizing symptoms. Why does the FDA spend resources targeting products with better track records than the swine flu vaccine in production that will cost billions in federal taxpayer dollars and is anticipated to cause severe adverse effects? Furthermore, why would the manufacturers of the swine flu vaccine and our own federal government be immune from liability should death or injury occur as a result of the vaccine?

The CDC has admitted that 71% of all hospitalizations for swine flu were among those who were chronically ill, such as undergoing chemotherapy or suffering from an autoimmune disorder. In one hospital in Michigan, 9 out of 10 swine flu patients were obese and 2 out of 3 who died were severely obese. Instead of focusing on risk factors and targeting those populations most at risk for contracting and dying from the swine flu, the CDC has targeted children in school and childcare facilities and their staff to be the first to receive the experimental vaccine. Can you explain to us why the CDC is continually diverting our attention from the real epidemics of obesity, cancer and autoimmune diseases plaguing our country that are clearly risk factors in contracting the new swine flu and is, instead, targeting our children to be the first to receive the pandemic flu vaccine?

Our country and the world are experiencing an economic depression. Many states are bankrupt and the numbers of unemployed and homeless people increase daily. Meanwhile, our Congress continues to pass legislation exacerbating the economic woes of our country rather than being part of the solution. How will the expenditure of billions of tax dollars for manufacturing, storing, and disseminating an untested, experimental vaccine solve our healthcare and economic crises? Isn’t the current proposed mass vaccination plan a clear violation of the 4^th Amendment to the Constitution?
