As usual, California is ahead of the game - this time on mandatory vaccinations.

37. Like most people, i believed all the many "educational points" made about vaccines.

I even still believed in vaccines after I suffered from Guillaume Barre Syndrome, immediately following the swine flu shots that were administered during the 1970's.

At a point in time when I had about two dozen articles published in a Marin County newspaper, I was selected to serve on a California Health Council. During that time period, I kept meeting people who had been in the Vaccine Industry, and then when they refused to fudge the results of their research, or they came forward with some problem they knew needed to be made right so that people would not be getting flawed vaccines, well, low and behold these scientists were fired and then blacklisted. This kept happening for the entire seven years that I served on the Council.

Right now, the Pharmaceutical Interests have all the power. Why? Because the have the media by the short hairs. (Just as the big nicotine firms once held the media hostage, with its lucrative cigarette ads.)

Ever wonder why in the world we have dozens of ads for pharmaceutical products, one right after the other during TV's prime time? Resear4ch shows that Americans no longer respond to these ads.

But the ads offer such an incentive for the networks to report on health matters in a manner consistent with the Pharmaceutical Industry's need to keep selling vaccines.

Barbara Loe Fisher is a remarkable person. I fully support her.

The situation we are in right now is so reminiscent to me of what we non-smokers went through back in the sixties and seventies with regards to cigarettes. "The studies show cigarettes are safe, and blah blah blah. Now get back to your desk, and quit complaining about the grey smoke that is so thick you can't see from your desk to the window twenty feet away!"
