Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2011 1:06 pm Post Subject: Take Action To Prevent Forced Vaccination!
This is related to Tranceformer's last thread on Oratia Primary School sending unimmunised kids home and has just appeared on Smash's blog in case anyone hasn't seen it yet. Looks like the big push is coming...
URGENT: Please read now and take action to prevent forced vaccination Tue, 06/21/2011 - 12:14 - smashdracs
On March 24, 2011, the Report of the Health Select Committee's Inquiry into "How to improve [increase] immunisation [vaccination] completion rates" in New Zealand which was published on the parliamentary website. The government has 90 days (from March 24) to respond to the report. The government's response to this report is due on June 22.
The Health Select Committee (under the leadership of Dr Paul Hutchison) has produced a report that recommends raising the targeted vaccination completion rate to 95% for NZ children aged 0-4. It also proposes a target be set for 11 year olds.
The report also recommends that the government make children's enrollment at school and early childhood centres dependent on parents producing proof of their children's vaccination status and – even more ominously – suggests that government direct the Ministry of Health to consider linking "existing parental benefits" to vaccination. (See Page 6 of the Report.)
If the government accepts the recommendations in the report, it appears that parents will be forced to choose whether their child has no vaccinations - or all vaccinations on the schedule - in order to be able to supply the documentation necessary to enroll their child in a school or early childhood education centre. Eligibility for the 20 Hours Free Early Childhood Education may also be restricted to children who have had all recommended vaccinations (or whose parents have decided against vaccination) according to Page 33 of the Report. Christians (and others) who decide against MMR vaccination because of the use of cells derived from aborted foetal tissue in its production* (or for any other reason) could be particularly badly affected if the government adopts these sort of discriminatory policies.
Clear Conflict of Interest
The recommendations to link ECE 20 hours free funding to vaccination come from Dr Nikki Turner, who works for the Immunisation Advisory Centre. IMAC claims to be "a local source of independent, factual information including benefits and risks regarding immunisation, and vaccine-preventable disease." http://www.immune.org.nz/?t=561
However its site discloses that it receives funding from the Ministry of Health... and also that “Private industry offers some minimal funding for special projects...” (See: http://www.immune.org.nz/?t=1021 ) The site used to have a page that displayed the logos of five major vaccine companies that the organisation acknowledged as sponsors, but it was removed after it was publicised.
A cursory look at IMAC's website shows that the organisation, far from being "independent" is vociferously pro-vaccine and much of the information on their website downplays the risks of vaccines to the point of being factually inaccurate. (See below for examples.)
Despite Dr Nikki Turner's working for an organisation that has even acknowledged its vaccine company funding, the Report of the Health Select Committee has recommended adopting her recommendations when "where there is a clear evidence base for doing so within the resources available."
Vaccines: Far from "Benign"
It is important to realise that vaccination is not a benign health promoting procedure but a medical intervention that puts a healthy recipient at risk of side effects, including death. There is an on-line memorial to babies, children and adults who have suffered serious side effects or died following vaccination at the following link:
This underlines the importance of parents (and everyone else) being able to make a free and fully informed choice about vaccination.
The Report of the Health Select Commitee on vaccination rates represents a significant attack on parents' rights to make health care decisions for their children.
We are in an election year; if you disagree with the recommendations in the report, please act NOW to let all political parties know that you find this unacceptable.
Please forward this message widely and visit the website www.noforcedvaccines.org as soon as you can for more information and for ideas on how you can help with the campaign to resist the erosion of human rights threatened by this Report. There is a template letter that you can email to politicians and email addresses on the Resources page of the site. Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Katherine Smith
[1] For example, the page for parents about measles on IMAC's site states:
"Can the MMR vaccine cause autism? NO. Extensive research shows there is no evidence that MMR vaccine causes autism - or any other behavioral or neurological disorder." [Original emphasis] http://www.immune.org.nz/?T=977
This statement is untrue. There is considerable evidence that the MMR can cause regressive autism (and other forms of brain damage) in some children, as the authors of one study acknowledged.
“These results show that primary pediatric MMR vaccination in children is associated with a marked Increase in serious neurological disorders in comparison to DTwcP vaccination. The increase is statistically significant for cerebellar ataxia, autism, mental retardation and permanent brain damage following primary pediatric MMR vaccination in comparison to DTwcP vaccination. The results are remarkable considering that DTwcP vaccination has been found by the scientific and medical communities to be responsible for permanent neurological sequalae in children.” [emphasis added]
(NB: DTwcP is a vaccine containing antigens from Diptheria, Tetanus and Pertussis. The “wc” indicates that the pertussis component is a “whole cell” pertussis vaccine i.e. that it contains whole, killed pertussis bacteria.)
Another example from IMAC's website:
"Is the [pneumococcal] vaccine safe? No serious reactions have been associated with pneumococcal vaccines."
As a parent, I would consider apnoea (temporary cessation of breathing) in a young baby after vaccination to a very serious reaction, wouldn't you?
IMAC obviously disagrees. (The pneumococcal vaccine on the NZ vaccination schedule "Prevenar", is manufactured by Wyeth, one of IMAC's sponsors according to the page - since removed - that was on the organisation's website in 2010.)
(Links from the IMAC website are as accessed in 2010)
(Also, I just heard yesterday that the Donkey discussed the topic of "natural" remedies with his Oztrailian counterpart in very recent talks - sounded like Codex Alimentarius related stuff but haven't looked at detail yet. More on that later I guess.)

Yes, among other splutterings, it was announced last night that Aus and NZ will be working up an identical policy on therapeutic substances
Not being allowed to go to school can't be all that bad?

Well that's right Niksta, and just exactly what our high school kids need to know, that,and the deliberate and deceitful reality behind fiscal policy, the use of credit as a weapon, the use of inflation and market crashes to scrub off the value of our labour.... From these and similar "delights" most other evils follow
So, there's a case for establishing community schools! I belonged to one for a number of years, found it very rewarding, the main obstacle to it was the need for parents to work hard to pay the interest on their mortgage.....
Mortgage: In the word mortgage, the mort- is from the Latin word mori (via old french mort) for death and -gage is from the sense of that word meaning a pledge to forfeit something of value if a debt is not repaid. So mortgage is literally a death pledge.
