Greetings,
The racing season has come to an end. We didn't finish as well as we had hoped. The last 2 races of the season the car ran in the top 4 the first few laps of the race & then started to back pedal. We've figured out that the clutch would start slipping causing the rev limiter to kick in & holding the car back further & further from the front of the pack. We finished 10th so it was a good finish but not as high as we had hoped for season championship night.
As I was checking the stats for the blog on Saturday I noticed that I had a link coming in from the Liberty Beacon.com website. I clicked it to see what it went to. The Liberty Beacon had posted the Eugenics article on their website. I've also been made one of their contributors. This is exciting news!!!
So, back to writing articles not this weekend but the following weekend. I'm helping my disabled sister move starting on Thursday. It's going to be a very interesting & busy week.
Have a great week, until next time,
Lori

Some help for nurses that are being told they have to get the flu shot
Greetings,
Dr. Sherri Tenpenny did a blog entry that included a letter to give to their employers that were requiring them to get the flu shot.
I asked for her permission to repost it here. It was granted & it is posted below. I hope it is of help to you.
Until later,
Lori

To Whom It May Concern:
I am respectfully submitting this document in protest of the hospitals policy of mandatory flu shots for all healthcare workers, clerical staff, vendors, students and volunteers. This policy raises serious concerns and jeopardizes the hospital system. It is clear that those making this decision may not be aware of the risks.
Requiring that I be injected with a substance that will not protect me (or my patients) and could cause me a lifetime of debilitating illness, in exchange for employment needs to be challenged in a Court of Law. Until that happens, I maintain that what is injected into my body is my choice. This information also substantiates the reasons I am refusing the flu shot.
Sincerely,

Real Risk of Side Effects
Flu shots and their ingredients potentially cause serious, long-term side effects. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a very real potential complication from flu shots. In 2003, there were 382 cases of GBS reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) following influenza vaccination. The median onset of GBS following influenza vaccine was 12 days.
An article published in the journal, Neurology, estimated the annual economic cost of GBS in the United States. The estimated average annual cost of GBS was $1.7 billion, including direct and indirect medical costs. Most of the direct medical costs were for community hospital admissions. Most of the indirect costs were due to premature deaths. The mean cost per patient with GBS was $318,966. [Ref: Economic cost of Guillain-Barré syndrome in the United States P. D. Frenzen, PhD. Neurology. July 1, 2008. vol. 71 no. 1 21-27]
Neurological complications that have been described after influenza vaccination, include Guillain-Barre syndrome, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, acute transverse myelitis, optic neuritis, cerebellar ataxia, giant cell arteritis, dermatomyositis, hypoglossal palsy, peripheral facial palsy, vasculitic ulnar mononeuropathy and oculomotor mononeuropathy. [Ref: de Almeida, et al. “Transient Oculomotor Palsy after Influenza Vaccination: Short Report.” Neurology. 2011; 2011: 849757.]
Is the institution willing to take on the documented illnesses and economic losses associated with this policy? Is the hospital’s malpractice carrier aware of the risks associated with this policy?
No Protection for Employees or Patients
Since flu shots only create antibodies against the three strains found in the injection, flu shots do not guarantee an employee will not be sick and transmit illness to a patient.
With more than 200 viruses known to cause influenza-like illness (ILI), a person can get a flu shot and still become sick with what is described as “the flu”. According to CDC data, influenza-like illness is caused by an influenza virus only about 14% of the time; stated differently, a virus other than influenza virus causes of illness 86% of the time. [Ref: Analysis of 11 years of data from CDC Weekly Flu Activity & Surveillance Reports. October to May (wk 40 to wk 20) each year. http://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/fluactivity.htm]
The strains in the vaccine must be a close match to those in circulation to offer any protection all. In April, 2012, the director of the Center for Immunization Research at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore admitted, “Our ability to predict which strain will circulate has not been great. We might as well have tossed a coin.” [Ref: Nature Medicine 18, 471 (2012)]
No fewer missed days from work
Creating a flu shot policy to decrease the number of days missed from flu-like illness among healthcare workers is not substantiated. The Cochrane Collaboration has published several extensive reviews of flu shots. In a review of 25 reports involving 60,000 adults, the conclusion was:
Many may presume that a flu shot is innocuous because it contains only sterile water or saline, and a three attenuated viruses. This is not a correct assessment of what is coming through that needle.
The manufacture of flu shots is a complex, labor-intensive process. The amniotic membrane of the chicken embryo is injected with a drop of viral-containing solution. The hole in the shell is sealed with a spot of glue and the eggs are incubated for up to 11 days. The viruses are extracted from the allantois membrane (egg white) and the gooey mixture is centrifuged, sometimes more than once, to remove as much chicken blood and tissue solution as possible. Residual egg protein remains within the final product. This is the reason that persons with a documented egg allergy are advised against receiving the flu shots.
The viruses are then submitted to processing with a variety of chemicals before packaging. There are currently 8 different flu shots on the market. Depending on the injection and the manufacturer, a flu shots contain the following substances: Avian proteins/DNA; avian (stealth) viruses, antibiotics, beta-propriolactone, formaldehyde, a detergent (Triton X-100), hydrocortisone, MSG, polysorbate 80, sucrose, synthetic Vitamin E (highly inflammatory), gelatin and a eight different chemical buffers. Some flu shots have traces of latex (from the stopper) and the multi-dose flu vials still contain thimerosal (mercury).
Several items on that list are known to cause anaphylaxis (polysorbate 80 and gelatin); formaldehyde was recently added to the list of known carcinogens. New manufacture is going to include cells from dog kidneys (MDCK cells), caterpillar eggs (FluBLOK), and cells derived from a single, human retina cell from an aborted fetus (PER.C6).
Flu shots in those with chronic illness
There is evidence that flu shots are not protective in our patients either:

Flu shots in those with chronic illness
There is evidence that flu shots are not protective in our patients either:
- Asthmatic Children: A retrospective cohort
study was done at the Mayo Clinic to evaluate the efficacy of the
flu shot to prevent hospitalization. Charts of 263 children aged 6
months to 18 yrs., who had laboratory-confirmed influenza were
reviewed. The flu shot did not provide any protection against
hospitalization in pediatric subjects and there was an overall
trend toward higher rates of hospitalization in subjects who got the
flu shot, especially children with asthma. On the contrary,
we found a threefold increased risk of hospitalization in subjects
who got the flu shot. [Ref: Joshi AY, et al. “Effectiveness
of trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine in influenza-related
hospitalization in children: a case-control study.” Allergy
Asthma Proc. 2012 Mar-Apr;33(2):e23-7. ]
- Cystic fibrosis: “There is no evidence to
show if regular influenza vaccine benefits people with cystic
fibrosis.” [Ref: Dharmaraj P, Smyth RL. Vaccines
for preventing influenza in people with cystic fibrosis.
Cochrane Summaris, August 10, 2011.]
- Healthcare workers in long term care facilities:
“We conclude that there is no evidence that only vaccinating
healthcare workers prevents laboratory-proven influenza, pneumonia,
and in elderly residents in long-term care facilities. Interventions
such as hand washing, masks, restricting visitors, etc. might
protect individuals over 60 in long-term care facilities.” [Ref:
Roger E Thomas, et al. “Influenza vaccination for
healthcare workers who work with the elderly.” Cochrane
Summary. February 17, 2010.]
- Children on chemotherapy: “Pediatric
oncology patients receiving chemotherapy are able to generate an
immune response to the influenza vaccine, but it remains unclear
whether this immune response protects them from influenza infection
or its complications. Based on this review it is not possible to
recommend or discourage influenza vaccination in children with
cancer being treated with chemotherapy.” [Ref: Ginette M
Goossen et al. “Influenza vaccination in children
being treated with chemotherapy for cancer.” Cochrane
Summary. April 15, 2009.

I'm being stalked........
Greetings,
I've had a suspicion of this for quite awhile but last night my suspicions were confirmed. I was on a forum that I go on frequently & a picture of me was posted. I don't recall it being taken & I didn't recognize the background. I was able to get it taken down.
The country of origin for the poster was the United Kingdom.
This will not defer me from what I'm doing but I will have to be more careful to protect my family.
On a brighter note, we did fairly well on the track this week. We had a top 10 finish in the feature race. Not too bad for the 3rd night out.
Until next time,
Lori

Update on what's happening.........
Greetings,
Time for an update on what's going on at vaccinefreehealth.
The national race went very well. I didn't get into the big race but as my husband put "I have my driver back." I placed last in the heat race & felt pretty down. Another lady driver who was the first national champion for Sport Compacts came over afterwards & gave me a pep talk. I went out for the "B" feature & placed 12th out of 15 cars. I was racing against track champions & many feature winners. A good showing considering it was only my 2nd night in a race. Heading out again on the 11th to see if I can put it up front. Please send positive thoughts my way that evening.
AutismOne was looking for an MD- Moms Determined for a board. I talked to the lady in charge of it & put my name in the hat. She asked if I had a ASD child & how I heard about the board. I told her I heard about it thru a mutual friend & my background along with the work I do. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Washington, D.C. here I come! My husband has given me full permission to attend the hearing on Nov. 13th. on the Vaccine Injury compensation program. This will be held at the Capitol building. I'll be leaving on the 11th to have 2 days to make the trip. Lets hope we can make a change from an unconstitutional vaccine court to a constitutional court. A trial that is run by a judge & with a jury. Everyone is entitled to their day in court......even kids who are injured by vaccines.
Until next time,
Lori
