This may be a bit long for some of you out there (its 10 minutes, OMG!!!11) but its important. Gary Null speaks about the serious dangers of the vaccines and how there is lots of evidence that the pharmaceutical companies are using vaccines to damage peoples immune systems so they will be dependent on different kind of drugs for the rest of their lives. These drugs are then sold at thousand of percent markup prices.
Part 1
I seriously advice you to not take the swine flu vaccine or any other vaccine. But in the end its your decision.

This guy is pretty misinformed doesn't he know that the majority of the anti vax movement has given up on the thimerosal/mercury argument because its been proven false? In addition for someone who claims to have read thousands of reports he must have chosen to ignore the one about the University of Pennsylvania getting closer and closer to narrowing down the cause of autism to genetics not thimerosal/mercury.
Does he prefer we go back to the "old" ways like our ancestors who didn't have vaccines?

Well you have obviously never knowingly encountered disinformation, because you just described the most popular tactic.
but i don't know/care about anything relating to this topic.

According to himself his PhD thesis was on caffeine ("A Study of Psychological and Physiological Effects of Caffeine on Human Health."). If you look at his own webpage it says "Ph.D. in human nutrition and public health science.", ie on caffeine as written above.
In other words, this man has not studied medicine and I seriously doubt anyone without it can fully understand the workings of viral infections let alone vaccine. If he did indeed study it thoroughly, then he wouldn't have any problems getting the degree to prove it would he?
I strongly suggest you don't take Jim's misinformed advice seriously.
I feel I have studied enough science to see through this kind of shenanigans. He might have some points on some of the things he's blurting out but remember, in the end this man is still just a questionable expert on caffeine.

I and a bunch of my friends have just gotten over the swine flu.
The Americans that got it all went with fluids, bed rest and recovered in under a week. The Japanese that got it all went to the hospital, got a bucket of pills and recovered in about a week and a half.
So, I don't need the vaccine! I'm now immune!

I agree with not taking flu vaccines just due to the fact of their inability to really do anything if they guess the wrong strand and some pretty well know F* ups in the past with them.
3 people in my family got the flu and swine flu shot this year. All 3 got swine flu. As did I, my wife, and at least 20 other members of my family in the local area ( they shut down the school for a week because they had an 80% attendance drop from sickness, no not exaggerated ) But the thing is, we all were fine. The 3 who got the vaccine seemed to be the worst among us, they were having serious vomiting, high fever, and respiratory issues, they all were prescribed tamaflu and after taking it for 1 day they were all better no joke. Me and my wife just went about business as usual, I went to work, she went to college, and we both just took acetaminophen (Tylenol). My daughter is less than 1 year old. She didnt even catch it with all of us having it and having no choice but to be around her. We asked our Ped what to do and he said nothing, just watch and see if she develops symptoms when she does then we'll deal with it.
Swine flu hit a lot of people in the US very fast, but seems to me the only people in my family who got the vaccine, were also the sickest when they caught it.

all vaccines carry some sort of danger, but that's very rare, and on very isolated cases.
of course that some are more dangerous than others, like the cure for the sleep disease is the equivalent of pouring battery acid on your veins (it also needs to be administrated with glass syringes, since it can corrode the more common plastic ones), but in all honesty, EVERY vaccine poses some sort of threat, specially in terms of allergic reactions, so that warning is a wee bit moot tbh.
but that doesn't make it ****ed up. what makes it ****ed up is the fact that everyone is making a ****ing issue out of a diferent strain of flu that just happens to be a wee bit more contagious.
I mean, mortality rates are pretty much equal, if not less, than your common seasonal flu, for ****s' sake. ---

From what I've understood the difference is the age groups. Seasonal flu taked out old people, while this kills adults to a higher degree.

I do not take the flu vaccine because of a family history of getting the flu from the flu shot. But accusations that big bad pharma are using the flu vaccine as some sort of immune system reducing plot to encourage you to use more medical drugs is kinda absurd. Good movie/novel plot yes, in the realm of possibility no.
Also, go troll /b/ they appreciate this kind of stuff there. -------------

Edited by: Buzz LiteBeer on 15/11/2009 22:30:46 Injection Flu vaccines can't give you the flu, they can give you symptoms that seem flu-like.
However, the vapor/inhalation version of the current swine flu vaccination is made from live flu so there is a chance.

Trust the goverment right? The same FDA/ADA that in their infinite wisdom approve fluoride in the water supply. Anyone that approve that has zero credibility imho. Quote: "Whether you drink fluoridated water from the tap or buy it in a bottle, you're doing the right thing for your oral health," said ADA executive director James Bramson. "Thanks to the FDA's decision, bottlers can now claim what dentists have long known--that optimally fluoridated water helps prevent tooth decay."
Oh really Who believe these phoney reports? Yes fluoride in toothpaste can help prevent tooth decay. But it's still poison (sodium fluoride has been used as rat poison) and putting it in the water supply make no sence in terms of health. Unless if it was to make people sick so the pharmaceutical companies could make more profit then it make perfect sence.
This is offtopic, but the point is that you cant trust the goverment nor pharmaceutical companies to know whats best for your health. Big buisness are running the show, not people. Earth and its inhabitants has become a glorious piece of real estate. History is all the proof you need. Research and dont watch TV. For anyone like myself that know about natural medicines. It's pretty well known that the pharmaceutical companies dont want people to have perfect health and use natural medicine. Each year the drug companies use alot of money to lobby against use of natural medicine. You cant use patents on natural medicine which mean low profit to be made.
To the OP, check out Robert Kennedy. He make a good case against mercury.
This is just the top of the iceberg. There are literally thousands of chemicals used by the industry today that has never been safely tested on humans. It's not illegal but it's like playing russia roulette because there are no way of telling what the long term effects may be. Its very expensive to test new chemicals on humans and can take a long time.
So you want to play russia roulette with a new vaccine against a swine flu that have killed less than regular flu? Smoke and mirrors as usual |

Lets put things into perspective.
In 1900, the average life expectancy was approximately 47. Today at least in the US its closer to 80.
How did we manage this? Certainly not by magic. Vaccines have helped us eliminate numerous diseases that ravaged the population prior to this century. Smallpox, polio, tetanus, yellow fever. When is the last time you heard someone coming down with smallpox? The last recorded case was 1977. Thats because everyone on earth was vaccinated which eradicated the virus. There was a small risk in taking the vaccine, but that was much better than the 1 in 3 mortality rate of smallpox.
Science and drug development have taken huge steps in allowing us to live longer. People are now surviving heart attacks and strokes long enough for cancer to get them . We dont die of the things that killed us 100 years ago.
I guess the question you have to ask yourself is: What do you want to die of? And if you get sick, who do you want to treat you? Personally I believe my doctors and the medicines they prescribe over a radio show host.
And regarding the video in the OP. Gary Null is dumb, he isnt even a scientist with any formal training. His Ph.D is bogus, he got it from a correspondence school, which means he bought it. He says he did careful research, but has no citations to back up his claims. Besides he has a conflict of interest himself. He has a radio show, which means he makes money pitching you crazy conspiracy ideas. Whatever gets the listeners to tune in.
Gary Null is dumb, OP is dumb for believing him. And im probably dumber for feeling like I have to defend science in this thread.

I'm pretty sure in the UK the doctor who propagated the 'MMR = Autism' myth, had his medical license revoked and his arse dragged through court. Because he thought there was a link. This guy wasn't a medical scientist, just a normal town GP. Generations of kids went without this vaccine, meant to help protect them from these horrific diseases, are now vulnerable. Because someone parents trusted fed them a load of misinformed crap.

And what exactly is this based on? The required materials and manufacture? Sure the cost to produce might pale in significance to it's retail price. But what about all the RnD costs? Some of these projects run into the hundreds of millions, even billions of dollars to achieve a usable drug. And make a profit, so they can then improve current lines and open new areas of research. I'd like cheap medical treatments as much as the next person, but that isn't going to happen in a world where companies need to make profits and people need to be paid.

Wouldn't it be more efficient to put it in our food or drink?
I mean then you hit the entire population, and not just the portion of it that takes vaccines.
You'd think a major conspiracy would consider these types of things. Seems whenever a conspiracy comes to the question of 'How do we accomplish this?' the answer is always 'In the most complicated/inefficient way possible!'. Take UFO conspiracies for instance. All they have to say is 'Sorry, we were testing something new. Can't talk about it though.' and it's all over but instead decide to go through all the trouble of a coverup that appears to scream 'WE'RE HIDING SOMETHING!'.

I take it you have never worked with any government agency ever. Yes it would be more efficient to do that, plus it makes more sense, but that's where that conspiracy would go wrong. Every government, government agency, or government backed corporation seem to lack the words efficient and sense in their dictionaries and handbooks.

Pharmaceutical companies dont gain anything from taxes, why on earth would they care? :P
On an other note though, these claims that they are only damaging or immune systems with the vaccines to make profits off the meds we have to buy seem pretty silly. Sounds more like there's someone trying to make profits off people who actually believe in crap like this and get the flu because they dont take the vaccine.

Just because governements have a hard time keeping the lid on things does not directly transfer to big companies being as non-efficient.
Not that they got away with it, but how long did Big Tobacco keep their tampering with their tobacco products secret?
Fake Edit: This is a sticky subject for me being in the health and wellness field. I have been tending towards "more natural" products recently and even though I am in a high risk catagory, with another surgery/hospital stay coming up, I have decided not to get any vaccines this year. Last year I got the flu and pneumonia vaccs.
REAL EDIT: Not that I think that there is some inherant conspiracy to kill off certain populations, but I do think that in the rush to get cures out corners are cut. So I think that their are inherant problems in the procedures and the outcomes are negative sometimes, but I do not think their is some underground conspiracy to thin out the population.

Sure, but old people tend to get vaccinated more often than younger adults as is. A slightly higher risk of dying for younger adults, who usually don't get vaccinated is what makes the whole thing an issue I would say.
To compare, all that fuss about the bird flu a while back was not justified at all, but this is. (the people dying from bird flu had basically been drinking raw duck blood and such )

****ing stop this.
Vaccines are not dangerous. Vaccines save lives. No doctor will ever recommend you not taking vaccines. The man in that video is not a doctor and has absolutely zero academic credentials. You probably don't care about that though, because you probably make up some silly excuse to support your irrational delusions, like all doctors in the world being payed off by big pharma.
Stop spreading dangerous misinformation, you moron. There is a serious problem with stupid newly made parents refusing to vaccinate their children from potentially life-threatening diseases such as chicken pox, and people like you are to blame for it.
Really, I don't give a **** if you think that aliens are sticking probes in your butt at night, or if you think that the government did 9/11, or if you think that the Illuminati control the world. That is really your own problem. But please, for the love of god please do not spread this dangerous misinformation.
Vaccines save lives, and are one of the major contributing factors to the fact that average life expectancy today is about twice of what it was a century ago. Look at this graph and then say that vaccines are useless.
