            <title>&apos;Aid&apos; Groups Launch Haiti Mass Vaccination Campaign</title>
            <description>&lt;b&gt;Federation expects to start vaccinating about 1,800 people Monday at a camp on the old airport runway, then move on to hundreds of other camps over the next two weeks&lt;/b&gt; 08 Feb 2010 &apos;Aid&apos; groups say they are launching an emergency vaccination campaign for 140,000 people in Haiti to &apos;protect them against&apos; measles and other diseases. The campaign is being conducted by the international Red Cross federation, the World Health Organization, UNICEF and the Haitian Health Ministry. A Red Cross statement says the campaign will focus on the capital Port-au-Prince because the disease risk to earthquake victims there is greatest. [&lt;b&gt;There&apos;s no food, but Haitians can always count on the US Army, mercenaries, and pharmaterrorists&apos; mercury-laden vaccines in any crisis.&lt;/b&gt;] </description>

            <description>A weakened [?!?] batch of the H1N1 flu vaccine in the inventory of the Rock Island County Health Department has been recalled by the manufacturer, Sanofi Pasteur. That means the injectable H1N1 vaccine will not be available this week for children 6-35 months old.</description>

            <title>Miscarriage prompts halt to flu jabs</title>
            <description>&lt;b&gt;Houston, we have a problem.&lt;/b&gt; H1N1 flu vaccinations among pregnant women have been suspended after a woman who received a jab lost her baby to miscarriage a day later. The Public Health Ministry yesterday denied any link between the vaccinations and the foetal death, but as a precaution suspended flu shots among pregnant women pending an investigation into the miscarriage in the southern province of Satun. &lt;b&gt;It said it would press ahead with a plan for an H1N1 vaccination campaign aimed at high risk groups despite concerns about possible side-effects&lt;/b&gt;.</description>

            <title>Vaccination Without Doctor Approval In a US Hospital</title>
            <description>By S. Humphries, MD H1N1 and seasonal influenza vaccines are now being given to sick hospital patients with or without their doctor’s consent. This is being done despite there being no data on the safety of doing so. I am a licensed, board-certified nephrologist, otherwise known as a kidney specialist, working in a large, city-based hospital. Because I rarely admit patients to the hospital other than for specific procedures, such as a kidney biopsy, I only recently became aware of my hospital’s policy regarding flu shots for sick people. Waking up to this new rule made me realize that Big Pharma is getting closer and closer to bypassing doctors completely to deliver direct patient &quot;care&quot;.</description>

            <description>Canada announced Thursday it has donated five million swine flu vaccine doses and six million Canadian dollars (5.6 million US) to the World Health Organization for its pandemic relief efforts.

            <title>Drug firms &apos;drove swine flu pandemic warning to recoup £billions spent on research&apos;</title>
            <description>Drug companies manipulated the World Health Organisation into downgrading its definition of a pandemic so they could cash in on a swine flu outbreak, it is claimed. An inquiry heard yesterday that the WHO allegedly softened its criteria for declaring a H1N1 flu pandemic last spring - just weeks before announcing there was a worldwide outbreak. Critics said the decision was driven by pharmaceutical companies desperate to recoup the billions of pounds they had invested in researching and developing pandemic vaccines [&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.legitgov.org/baxter_flu_vaccine_260409.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; &gt;not to mention, the pandemics themselves&lt;/a&gt;] after the bird flu scares in 2006 and 2007.</description>

Jose Gomez said he signed a form last November stating his daughter, a student at San Ysidro Middle School, was not to get a shot and reaffirmed that position to two people last week... Nonetheless, his daughter was pulled from class to get the vaccination.</description>

            <title>India questions WHO&apos;s false alarm on swine flu</title>
            <description>With the WHO now admitting that the seriousness of the swine flu pandemic had been overestimated, India on Tuesday demanded an inquiry on why the global body pressed the panic button in the first place. Union minister of state for health Dinesh Trivedi on Tuesday said it was important to find out whether there was ever a &lt;b&gt;nexus between pharmaceutical companies and WHO which made the global health watchdog declare H1N1 flu a pandemic virus&lt;/b&gt;.</description>

            <description>Switzerland&apos;s medical regulator recommended patients with serious autoimmune diseases should not use an H1N1 flu vaccine from Novartis, saying there were no studies assessing the innoculation in that population. Swissmedic said on Wednesday it could not be ruled out that &lt;b&gt;either or both of the adjuvant and the antigen, or less active ingredient, could lead to an intensifying of autoimmune diseases&lt;/b&gt;.</description>

            <title>Swine flu was as elusive as WMD. The real threat is mad scientist syndrome</title>
            <description>&lt;b&gt;Remember the warnings of 65,000 dead? Health chiefs should admit they were wrong - yet again - about a global pandemic&lt;/b&gt; By Simon Jenkins --Mad scientist syndrome is rampant... As it is, the government&apos;s Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies sails gaily on, still graced by the presence of Sir Roy Anderson, who happens also to draw a six-figure salary as a non-executive director of GlaxoSmithKline, which made hundreds of millions from the government&apos;s panic. Anderson, and GSK, vigorously deny any conflict of interest. The Council of Europe&apos;s head of health, Wolfgang Wodarg, is one of the few who have dared blow the whistle on the links between &quot;Big Pharma&quot; and national and supranational agencies. He this week persuaded the council to stage a debate on the &quot;enormous gains&quot; made by GSK and others from the swine flu pandemic.</description>

            <description>A top World Health [Homicide] Organization official Thursday dismissed charges that the agency exaggerated the threat posed by the H1N1 virus and that it had been unduly influenced by the pharmaceutical industry to issue dire warnings about the swine flu pandemic. &quot;The world is going through a real pandemic. The description of it as a fake is both wrong and irresponsible,&quot; Keiji Fukuda, the special adviser to the WHO director general on pandemic influenza, told reporters during a briefing. &lt;b&gt;&quot;We did take very great care that the advice it received is not unduly influenced.&quot;&lt;/b&gt; [&lt;b&gt;Um, except when the virus was *let loose* by one of the corporations that made a *killing* on the pandemic.&lt;/b&gt; See: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.legitgov.org/baxter_flu_vaccine_260409.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; &gt;Baxter working on vaccine to stop swine flu, though admitted sending live pandemic flu viruses to subcontractor&lt;/a&gt; By Lori Price 26 Apr 2009.]</description>

            <description>The  [phony] influenza pandemic that swept the globe... resulted in an unprecedented  glut of vaccine as &lt;b&gt;fewer people than expected have sought immunization&lt;/b&gt;.  Sagging demand has left governments worldwide with surpluses of swine  flu vaccine. Many are now selling or donating the excess or slashing  pending orders. The biggest vaccine makers -- GlaxoSmithKline Plc, Sanofi-Aventis  SA, Baxter International Inc., Novartis AG and CSL Ltd. -- are seeing  a potential $7.6 billion sales windfall shrink, analysts said.</description>
