Vaccine Hesitancy: Our Argument

Remember it is NOT our job to win. It is our job to get people to think.

It is a FACT that vaccine reduces disease morbidity and mortality - Dont say this though

But the pharmaceutical industry has created an atmosphere of blind acceptance to vaccinations and a
willingness to put to the pitchfork those that do not agree completely.

Argument 1: Adverse reactions can be caused by vaccinations. It is important as healthcare providers to


report ALL adverse reactions using the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.

(Vaers.org)

Healthcare providers are NOT taught to use this, because the Pharmaceutical Industry pushes that
Vaccines Dont Cause Adverse Effects. A quick view of the entries so far from 2016 show that vaccines
do have some adverse effects ranging from mild pain, tenderness, and rashes to full on seizure . When
applying summary statistics using a simple tabulation 643,475 entries pop up for the eleven months of
2016. That is alot of adverse reactions reported but it is important to note THIS IS EXTREMELY
UNDERREPORTED because healthcare providers are not trained.

COST Arguement: THE VACCINE INDUSTRY IS THE BIGGEST CASH COW IN HEALTHCARE.

(Anectodtal) At the local pharmacies, we had Vaccine QUOTAS. If we did not sell enough vaccines a day.
This led to a stressed pharmacist actually injecting herself with a vaccine she didn't need in order to not
get another phone call from corporate. Traditionally until the 2000s vaccines were given Wonder why
every pharmacy, and most chain grocery stores have flu shot quotas? Its not because they care about
stopping the spread of infectious disease its because $$$.

Vaccines are also given too early - it takes roughly two-three weeks for it to take in effect and lasts for
about 6 months. Almost two months too early.

In fact DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS recently (1 month ago) turned away 1 million free Prevnar
(pneumococcal) immunizations citing the incredibly high inflated costs of immunizations currently. Tax
Write off etc In 2015 Pfizer made $6.245 billion in revenue from the pnemoccocal vaccine alone.

Argument 2: If someone does experience an adverse effect from an immunization one can not take the
companies responsible to court. Vaccine court is the popular term which refers to the Office of Special
Masters of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, which administers a no-fault system for litigating vaccine
injury claims. These claims against vaccine manufacturers cannot normally be filed in state or federal
civil courts, but instead must be heard in the Court of Claims, sitting without a jury.

Argument 3: Preservatives that used to be routinely used in immunizations, particularly childhood


immunizations, such as Thimerosal are known to be neurotoxic (1). The amount used as preservatives
have dramatically declined since the 1990s
(2)

Argument 4: Vaccine safety assessments conducted at multiple levels by a range of independent


organizations increases confidence in the rigour with which any potential risks or side-effects are
investigated and managed. Industry, regulatory agencies, academia, the medical community and the
general public all play a role in monitoring vaccine safety. Within these stakeholder groups, the
healthcare professional and vaccine provider have key roles in the prevention, identification,
investigation and management of adverse events following immunisation (AEFI). Guidelines and
algorithms aid in determining whether AEFI may have been caused by the vaccine, or whether it is
coincidental to it. Healthcare providers are encouraged to rigorously investigate AEFIs and to report
them via local reporting processes. The ultimate objective for all parties is to ensure vaccines have a
favourable benefit-risk profile.

Quotable Quotes:

As long as there is money to be made in healthcare there will always be a conflict of interest.

How are they tested?

Pretty confident?

Who are they testing them on?

But they are so expensive they dont need to be putting all of the that money into it. What else could
they be spending the money on?
