An Injection and Reflection of 2015 Moments

Vaccinations

Gumshoe did several articles on US anti-vaccination campaigner Sherri Tenpenny — the osteopath who had infuriated doctors by linking vaccines to a range of disorders. She was was going to run a series of seminars in Australia, but cancelled her tour after “continual, anonymous threats of vandalism and violence.”

A strange twist to this saga was anti vaxxer Frankie Vazquez (Article here). It had the whiff of a set-up of sorts. This guy apparently threatened to bomb and kill people — but police NO action was taken against him. However, if you are a young Muslim lad with a knife — you are a real danger to the public.

We know former prime minister Tony Abbott in November 2006 (as Federal Health Minister) said: “I won’t be rushing out to get my daughters vaccinated, maybe that’s because I’m a cruel, callow, callous, heartless bastard but, look, I won’t be” — but then he changed his mind when he became prime minister and supported the “no vax, no play” legislation that comes into affect January 1, 2016.

The ABC hosts Michael Rowland and Virginia Trioli also “put down” much admired cartoonist Michael Leunig when he was interviewed on ABC News Mornings, insisting vaccinations were proven to be absolutely safe.

Maybe the ABC should interview Christopher William Savage who served with the Queensland Police Service. In a 2012 declaration he confirmed that the police were writing off cases of possible vaccine injury as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, and that the police were falsely accusing parents of manslaughter and Shaken Baby Syndrome. (Gumshoe article here)

The ABC should also take note that the medical profession know vaccines do harm. There is now a call (November 15, 2015) for a Vaccine Injury Compensation Scheme.

I found this on australiandoctor.com.au, but cannot access the article. Only health practitioners can register for access.

Its a strange world we live in when a mandatory activity has along with it a injury compensation scheme.
