Deaths not linked to H1N1 vaccine: WHO

Hey folks,

I have to comment on this. There is so much Health and information out there the last couple of days, I need to discuss a few things. First up, this. According to Reuters - Deaths not linked to H1N1 vaccine: WHO By Stephanie Nebehay Stephanie Nebehay – Thu Nov 19, 1:27 pm ET

GENEVA (Reuters) – The World Health Organization said on Thursday the H1N1 vaccine had been cleared of blame for 41 deaths which health authorities worldwide had investigated after suspicions they might have been caused by the inoculation.

OK. Now as I said before. I'm NOT telling you NOT to get the Swine Flu Shot. I'm not telling you you should. As for me and my own, we are not. Why? My reason stays the same. It really is not tested.

Some say it's safe, some say they are more worried about the Vaccine than they are the actual flu. As I pointed out to you, I DO agree that these vaccines need to be tested FULLY before they are mandated for use. Right now Swine Flu is easily treated and most recover from it. There IS history of bad things happening in the 70s from the Swine Flu vaccines. I posted Video of this HERE. Now, we have 41 people, that was alive, took the shoot, and who are NOT. Facts folks. Just facts.

The U.N. agency reaffirmed that the pandemic vaccine is as safe as the seasonal flu vaccine used for more than 60 years. It also voiced concern that some pregnant women and others at risk were shunning it because of a fear of side-effects.

"No new safety issue has been identified from reports issued to date ... Reporting so far reconfirms that the pandemic flu vaccine is as safe as the seasonal flu vaccine," Marie-Paule Kieny, WHO's top vaccine expert, told a telephone conference.

Governments have so far reported that 65 million vaccine doses have been administered against H1N1, known as swine flu, in 16 countries, but the true figure is probably higher since immunization campaigns are under way in 40 countries, she said.

So they do not even now how much has been given?

Side-effects commonly reported include swelling and redness or pain at the injection site, although some had fever or headache, and all symptoms usually disappear after 48 hours.

Yes, and 41 people have DIED. Would they have if they had NOT taken the shot? Why did the shot effect them fatally and not others? The article says that there were, wait, here it is.

A "small number of deaths" had been reported, she said, and a WHO spokeswoman later put the figure at 41 in six countries.

"Although some investigations are still ongoing, the results of the completed investigations reported to WHO have ruled out that the pandemic vaccine is the cause of death," Kieny said.

Authorities in China -- where 11 million people have been vaccinated -- have reported 2 deaths following inoculation and 15 cases of severe side effects, the WHO said in a statement.

"Thorough investigation of these deaths, including a review of autopsy results, determined that underlying medical conditions were the cause of death and not the vaccine," it said of China.

WHAT "underlying medical conditions" did they have? Do you not think it would be good to know? It's like whenever you see a drug advertised on TV. You always see things like "Pregnant Women or Women that could become Pregnant, If you have High Blood Pressure, should not take this,," Should we not have something like that for THIS?

Fewer than a dozen suspected cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome had been reported following pandemic vaccination, she said. "Only a few of this Guillain-Barre may be linked to the pandemic vaccine .... and patients have recovered," she added.

Wait a second. Do you know what Guillain-Barre syndrome is? PARALYSIS! Remember the 70s? It is frequently severe and usually exhibits as an ascending paralysis noted by weakness in the legs that spreads to the upper limbs and the face along with complete loss of deep tendon reflexes.

"Only a few of this Guillain-Barre may be linked to the pandemic vaccine?" How many is a few? She claims they have recovered? Proof of this? At least they are telling us the truth here. I'll give them that. They may be down playing it, but they are telling us the truth.

Now do not misunderstand me here folks. I understand that these numbers are EXTREMELY low. VERY small in the number of people who have taken the shot. I understand that most that take the shot, will most likely have only mild side effects and it may help them from getting the Flu. However, again, for me and mine, the risk is just to great. You have to make your own decisions as to if you will take it or not. Do the research yourselves and YOU weight the FACTS. YOU decide what is best for you. The best decisions are fully informed and educated decisions.
