Isn't the point of how the Swine flu would kill you that, due to evolution, many people may have a particular cytokine pathway in their immune system which is liable to result in rapid cytokine storm and death from multi-organ failure ? This was the reason why the 1918 flu killed millions but the standard flu doesn't. You're giving bad advice

No adjuvants have been approved for flu vaccine in the U.S. to date.

There is no plan for mandatory vaccination with any swine flu vaccine that may become available.

Wouldn't adjuvants worsen a cytokine storm???

And Canada IS accepting GSK vaccine with ajuvants! We had a contract with GSK that every Canadian would be vaccinated. SO..GSK is using adjuvants to stretch the seed stock so it can only give Canadians 1 shot, instead of 2. Enabling GSK to release more of this deadly toxin to the US and Europe. Adjuvants in Swine Flu vaccine for Children has NEVER been tested...they MUST be stooped.

Unsupported claims

Sat, 18 Jul 2009 15:20:50 +0000

Mercola's claims regarding squalene are uninformed and unwarranted. Mercola cited initial speculation by Asa et al. that squalene was associated with Gulf War Syndrome[1] because of tainted anthrax vaccines[2]. However, evidence subsequent to the original study refuted the speculated association between squalene and Gulf War Syndrome.[3,4] In fact, the original study by Asa et al.[1] had several methodologic limitations that were discussed in detail by Alving and Garbenstein[5]. For example, the assay used to test squalene antibodies was not appropriately validated.[5] Furthermore, a separate study tested the anthrax vaccine that was reportedly contaminated with squalene, but the authors did not detect squalene in 37 lots of the vaccine and only one lot contained trace amounts that were below naturally occurring levels in human plasma.[6] Such evidence from multiple studies not only calls into question the original findings by Asa et al., but also the basis for Mercola's claims.

Unfortunately, Mercola is a businessman and self-promotor. Why would he recommend Krill Oil and Vitamin D at the end of the article? Shameless plugs for products that he sells. Be cautious of medical advice from people with something to sell and questionable evidence to support their claims.

"Be cautious of medical advice from people with something to sell and questionable evidence to support their claims."

You have to laugh at vaccinators attacking vaccine critics using the 'they are selling something' ad hominem. They seem to think vaccines are free, and they only dish them out from of the goodness of their heart! Allopathy is the biggest (or one of the biggest, top 3) business on the planet!

I'll take precautionary advice over BigPharma's junk science any day. Remember the swine flu from 1976? More people died and were hurt by vaccine that the flu and this time it will be even worse. Where do you see 1918 symptoms? I'll rather buff my immune system with vitamin D, ionic silver, ... and take a risk with infection, rather than take a weaponized vaccine that is ineffective and gives me autoimune disease. My body, my choice, your body, your problem.

Had problems with Captcha and half of my reply was gone.
I wanted to say that mercola.com is a #1 internet repository of healthy alternatives to drugs and it's not cheap to run. Can you imagine the legal fees he has to pay? Telling the truth can be extremely expensive, especially if you talk against BigPharma, BigAgro, Big Biotech.
So the man doesn't beg for donations and offers high quality products personally selected and tested, some of them unavailable anywhere else. I've seen a lot worse, health sites endorsing some other guy's fake products.
If he says Krill oil and vitamin D is good for you, and he has some to sell, that doesn't make it any less true.
What troubles me is when Merck says their Gardasil will protect girls from cancer and is 100% safe, that's just a LIE!

ADJUVANT - VACCINE booster or "nano-bomb"???

They were intent on creating something Mother Nature had not. “Designer disease,” they would later call it.

Dr. Sergei Popov was one of the Soviet Union’s best germ warriors, and running highly classified field research projects at The State Research Center of Applied Microbiology at Obolensk, and another laboratory in Siberia, specializing in viruses called VECTOR. While at Obolensk, Popov supervised a program codenamed “FACTOR”—as in “pathogenic factors” or “virulence factors”—where he helped engineer designer germs resistant to antibiotics. That is when he got interested in U.S. research with myelin basic protein.

American molecular biologist had mapped out the entire amino acid sequence for myelin—one of the chief components of the insulation surrounding nerve endings. Now they were hard at work trying to identify the epitopes on viruses that would cross-react with a special site on the myelin molecule to which an antibody might react and, cause experimental allergic encephalomyelitis—the animal version of multiple sclerosis. As the California-based scientists Robert Fujinami and Michael Oldstone explained in a landmark paper in Science: “during the cross-reacting immune response, virus may be cleared, but the components of the immune attack continues to assault self elements. The autoimmune response leads to tissue injury that, in turn, releases more self antigen, and the cycle continues.” Fujinami and Oldstone called the initial infection a “hit and run event.” By this they meant the virus attacked, and though it didn’t stick around, it left behind lasting damage. That is because the immune system continues to attack the molecule in the body that resembles the one in the germ, long after the immune system has gotten rid of the germ. Once this self-destructive process begins, it never stops; our bodies continue making the molecule the immune system is now trained to attack. If this new target for the immune system happened to be myelin, for example, the body would continue making this protein in order to replenish and repair the sheath around it’s nerve endings. But in the act of doing so, the body immunizes itself against itself, administering over and over again what amounts to a booster dose of something that the immune system now wants to get rid of. This vital constituent of your own body is now the enemy, and the immune system is now programmed to obliterate it in an endless loop of self-destruction [italics mine]. Dr. Sergei Popov saw real potential here.

He would not bother looking for a naturally occurring molecule that could trigger this process. He would make one. Popov spliced a fragment of myelin basic protein into legionella—the bacterium that causes Legionnaire’s Disease—creating a “chimera,” named for the mythical creature with a lion’s head, goat’s body and serpent’s tail. Inside Popov’s new constructed chimera was what amounted to a living “nano-bomb”—molecular contraband that could theoretically cause MS. When Popov infected guinea pigs with his chimera, the immune system cleared the legionella, and, just as he predicted, the myelin molecule smuggled into the guinea pigs inside of his microbial Trojan horse germ initiated a second wave of disease. This stealth germ caused experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, the animal version of MS. Popov felt as proud as a new parent. He could not wait to show “the client.”

“The client” is what VECTOR scientists called the Soviet Army officers who commissioned their biological warfare research projects. “Their initial response was rather discouraging,” says Popov, “because they did not see the fast onset of symptoms.” What the generals were accustomed to seeing was a germ with an immediate and catastrophic effect, but when they came back a few weeks later and saw the guinea pigs crippled MS, they recognized Popov’s creation for what it was—a biological time bomb. Soviet scientists then constructed another one of these time bombs with a virus. They chose vaccinia, the non-lethal cousin of smallpox. Popov, who is now living in America, believes the “final construct” for this viral time bomb was not vaccinia, but smallpox itself. In any case, it worked. “The client” had seen enough. The generals were sold on the idea. “The Russian Ministry of Defense wanted us to construct these designer germs, using myelin basic protein from monkeys and humans,” says Popov. “That would create a human version of the disease.”

Molecular mimicry, seen for its diabolical potential as a weapon by the Soviets as far back as the 1980s, also applies to SQUALENE [caps mine]. But the real problem with using squalene, of course, is not that it mimics a molecule found in the body; it is the same molecule. So what American scientists conceived as a vaccine booster was another “nano-bomb,” instigating chronic, unpredictable and debilitating disease [italics mine]. When the National Institutes of Health (NIH), argued that squalene would be safe because it is native to the body, just the opposite was true. Squalene’s natural presence in the body made it one of the most dangerous molecules injected into human beings [italics mine]. When UCLA Medical School’s Michael Whitehouse and Frances Beck injected squalene combined with other materials into rats and guinea pigs back in the 1970s, few oils were more effective at causing the animal versions of ARTHRITIS, and MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS [caps mine]. By the late 1990s, Sweden’s Karolinska Institute proved that injecting squalene all by itself could cause arthritis. The Polish Academy of Sciences proved that squalene alone could severe neurological damage. Now Tulane University Medical School and its ardent intellectual adversary—the Army’s Col. Carl Alving—have both shown that the immune system makes antibodies to squalene, but only after it is injected [italics mine].

For Squalene’s proponents in the U.S. Army and the NIH, this has been a relentless march towards an unpalatable truth. By adding squalene to their new anthrax vaccine, they did not make a better vaccine; they made a biological weapon [italics mine]. The anti-squalene antibodies in sick U.S. and British military personnel are evidence that military experiments may have caused more casualties with its new anthrax vaccine than have been caused by anthrax weapons since they were first used by the Japanese Army in the 1940s.

$400M contract goes to GlaxoSmithKline factory in Quebec City.
August 6, 2009 - CBC News.

Canada to order 50.4 million H1N1 (SWINE FLU) vaccine doses - One dose should be enough, because: GlaxoSmithKline is using an additive (AS03 - SQUALENE based) known as ADJUVANT. Adjuvants are used to boost immune response from vaccines [italics, caps and info on AS03 mine].

THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO) recommends countries should use SWINE FLU vaccines with ADJUVANTS [caps mine] - to stretch the global supply of the vaccines.
August 4, 2009 - THE CANADIAN PRESS

Flu vaccines in Europe often contain adjuvants [italics and underline mine].

The European Medicines Agency has previously said swine flu vaccines based on a pre-approved bird flu vaccine could be licensed within five days, even without extensive testing in humans.

In the United States, there are no licensed flu vaccines with adjuvants - The U.S. has ordered $979 million worth of bulk vaccine and Novartis' adjuvant (MF59®) [italics and underline mine].

MF59; is a sub-micron oil-in-water emulsion of a squalene, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (TweenTM 80) and sorbitan trioleate. SQUALENE is a natural organic compound originally obtained from shark liver oil and a biochemical precursor to steroids. The “MF59” adjuvant was developed by Chiron Corp., a company acquired by Novartis. MF59 is approved in Europe and is found in several vaccines; such as an influenza vaccine manufactured by Novartis. It has also been licensed to other companies and is being actively tested in vaccine trials.

Abstract

Exposure to the hydrocarbon oil pristane induces lupus specific autoantibodies in non-autoimmune mice. We investigated whether the capacity to induce lupus-like autoimmunity is a unique property of pristane or is shared by other adjuvant oils. Seven groups of 3-month-old female BALB/cJ mice received a single intraperitoneal injection of pristane, squalene (used in the adjuvant MF59), incomplete Freund’s adjuvant (IFA), three different medicinal mineral oils, or saline, respectively. Serum autoantibodies and peritoneal cytokine production were measured. In addition to pristane, the mineral oil Bayol F (IFA) and the endogenous hydrocarbon squalene both induced anti-nRNP/Sm and -Su autoantibodies (20% and 25% of mice, respectively). All of these hydrocarbons had prolonged effects on cytokine production by peritoneal APCs. However, high levels of IL-6, IL-12, and TNF? production 2–3 months after intraperitoneal injection appeared to be associated with the ability to induce lupus autoantibodies.

The ability to induce lupus autoantibodies is shared by several hydrocarbons and is not unique to pristane. It correlates with stimulation of the production of IL-12 and other cytokines, suggesting a relationship with a hydrocarbon’s adjuvanticity. The potential to induce autoimmunity may complicate the use of oil adjuvants in human and veterinary vaccines.

vaccine injuries devastate

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 03:46:16 +0000

How can we win this fight? I am tired of being terrorized by the vaccine profit mongers. I was pro vaccine 25 years ago when I took my daughter to get a dpt shot. She never stopped crying that day until the Dr. hospitalized her and sedated her and 3 days later when she came home she was different and deaf. All the Dr. could say was to never get the p (pertussis) part of the shot again, but just get the dt. The Dr. knew 25 years ago. My beautiful deaf daughter has met and married a wonderful man who is also vaccine injured. Imagine that. He had Guillian-Barre Syndrome 22 years ago at age 4, after a set of vaccinations, and all the Dr. could say was, never get another vaccination again in your life. The drs. knew 22 years ago. He was hospitalized for 6 months and had to learn to walk and talk again, and potty train again at age 5. Both my daughter and her husband were perfectly normal before their shots. People who refuse shots have been hurt by them, or know people who have suffered. It is nearly impossible to sue the govt. for vaccination injuries. They have all power to intimidate and terrorize people into getting vaccinations and then they have absolutely no accountability. IS this what we want for our national health care? I am already researching other countries where we can flee for assylum, as I have lived the devastation of vaccinations and cant bear to see it happen to any of my grandchildren. The writer of this article is absolutely right and I am fighting this fight and pray for everyone else to. With govt. health care citizens will be forced to pay for the cost of all the autistic children the vaccine industry has created and managed to sidestep taking reponsibility for. Do people think these people just go away or disappear. No, My family has had to learn sign language and sign to my daughter all her life. She has had to suffer the hardship of being deaf. People have to take care of their autistic children and they require very costly medical care. I pray for everyone to let their voice be heard against forced vaccinations and against govt health care. These are evils we must avoid. Stand up and fight, let your voice be heard. I praise the author of this article. Keep them coming!

The capacity of the human brain to "circuitry slam shut" is evidenced in the administrative fraud per vaccines imposed on kids, soldiers, retiree with the Brits passing a law for "zero vaccines to be imposed on any military or govt. employees. 2-5-million words/yr. 1st grades are superior to the M.D. staff imposing these vaccines. The "foxes guarding troops/kids" own the patents on the "squalene adjuvant" killing, crippling millions of adult/kids.
