Toni Bark, M.D., interviews James Chestnut, D.C. B.Ed., M.SC., C.C. W.P.,

1:44 Chestnut’s first interest in vaccinations started with the H1N1 “scare,” which struck him as illogical and overblown.

3:00 He has a hard time wrapping his mind around the fact that a worldwide policy has been made without clear scientific data. It’s impossible to have a control group when everyone has been vaccinated, but the flu strain changes every year, making it possible to do those studies.

4:15 For some reason questioning data on the flu vaccine is accepted in the research world, while the others are not.

6:00 The flu isn’t deadly. It’s not dangerous. The peer reviewed literature demonstrates this.

7:45 Doctors have little to no research training and are not equipped to make health care policy decisions. When doctors get involved they get attacked. Where does the policy come from? The government. Where does the government get their data? Pharmacutical companies.

9:15 The government has recommended the flu vaccine for everyone. Health care workers are required to get it now. This is fairly recent.

12:00 Chestnut feels that if doctors would really look at the flu vaccine data, they would begin to wake up. The deeper he looked, he calls it “Flu-gate.”

14:45 From the time that 15% of people got the vaccine to when 85% of people got it, the flu rate actually went up. He shows that the data are misleading and actually criminally so because they do not take into account frailty bias or those that are elderly and close to dying. These elderly don’t respond well to the vaccine. The flu comes around in winter due to a lack of vitamin D (sunlight). He feels supplementing with vitamin D a far better treatment.

19:50 The Canadian Nurses Union, the National Nurses Union in the U.S., SAE, OSHA, are all against mandated flu vaccines for health care workers.

21:50 The path of policy making is: Pharmaceutical companies create data they give to politicians who implement health care policy and vaccine schedules and then it comes down to medical practitioners. The doctors need to do their work and study and understand the data itself. We need independent researchers. The Cochrane Data Base is for this. This base has already shown there is NO EVIDENCE for vaccination showing what the CDC claims. Chestnut claims the data is all there but people are not looking at the Cocharn Data Base.

25:00 Chestnut feels we can study the flu vaccine to study the entire vaccine process. If the flu vaccine research has been proven false, then all vaccines can be questioned. He is asking doctors to look at the data and demand proper research studies be done on the flu vaccine.

27:05 He claims there are studies but that they have been interpreted falsely. He states that as long as doctors claim they know the facts on vaccines, things will not change.

29:09 Nobody wants to be the next Wakefield (labeled a fraud) for questioning vaccine practice but researchers have more latitude arguing data on the flu vaccine.

30:50 There are numerous viruses, few are the flu; however, they count all those other viruses to prove the flu vaccine. Many of those folks never had the flu to begin with. There’s no controlled data. He says it’s similar to stating that if 100 people go on a diet, 1 will lose 5 pounds, therefore the diet should be mandatory.

33:50 Nurses without the flu vaccine are required to wear a mask at work. Chestnut states what really upsets him is that nurses who get the flu vaccine believe they are protecting patients without a mask on, but they are not.

33:35 Next Bark interviews Kelly Brogan, M.D., Psychiatrist speaks. Her work led her to deal with pregnant women and helping them with informed consent regarding safety of medications while pregnant and after. In her journey she discovered that there are many toxicities and areas that need to be studied from food, water, air, to things like vaccines.

38:50 She says there is an alarming signal of harm around the flu vaccine in the literature. She turned to the Cochrane Data Base for objectivity. They have demonstrated a lack of efficacy. In a setting of lack of efficacy, the precautionary principle should prevail.

42:27 She claims people are trusting the authorities and are not connecting the dots, and that they believe they were fine until one day they became sick rather than seeing the lead up and connection to what they’ve done throughout time.

46:00 She states that medical doctors are not taught to prevent illness and look at individual risk factors. It seems easier to universally recommend things to everyone – like vaccines. If medicine makes universal recommendations and refuse to look at individuality, there is going to be collateral damage. (Think canary in the coal mine)

52:45 She has alternative medicine tools that many M.D.’s don’t. Regular M.D.’s feel threatened and defensive if questioned about what they learned in Med school.

55:20 When she started tapering pregnant women from pharmaceuticals it got ugly. Most drugs cause symptoms and cause adaptation – when she took the medication away they looked like they were relapsing. The symptoms they got after tapering were new. They might have gone on an anti-depressant years ago due to a breakup and when they tapered off they developed anxiety. She began to question all of it and she would sit down with patients and truly inform them of potential effects – long-term effects. She claims much of this data on drugs is corrupted, and that the book Anatomy of an Epidemic distressed her because one of the 16 studies on depression regarding long-term outcomes revealed that patients fare better if you don’t medicate them in their index episode.

105:30:00 People that even question dogma are attacked.

Next, Say Ji, Health Advocate and Founder of GreenMedInfo is interviewed. They start on Germ Theory.

Iowa Lyme Bill Signed into Law

https://www.lymedisease.org/iowas-lyme-doc-protection-bill-signed-governor/

The Iowa Lyme Bill was  signed by Governor Branstad on 3/23/2017.

https://legiscan.com/IA/bill/HF577/2017

The bill states:  http://coolice.legis.iowa.gov/Legislation/87thGA/enrolled/HF577.html

A person licensed by a board under this subtitle shall not be subject to discipline under this chapter or the board’s enabling statute based solely on the licensee’s recommendation or provision of a treatment method for Lyme disease or other tick-borne disease if the recommendation or provision of such treatment meets all the following criteria:

*The treatment is provided after an examination is performed and informed consent is received from the patient.
*The licensee identifies a medical reason for recommending or providing the treatment.
*The treatment is provided after the licensee informs the patient about other recognized treatment options and describes to the patient the licensee’s education, experience, and credentials regarding the treatment of Lyme disease or other tick-borne disease.
*The licensee uses the licensee’s own medical judgment based on a thorough review of all available clinical information and Lyme disease or other tick-borne disease literature to determine the best course of treatment for the individual patient.
*The treatment will not, in the opinion of the licensee, result in the direct and proximate death of or serious bodily injury to the patient.

Despite opposition from the state’s medical community, the bill passed both houses of the legislature unanimously.

Vaccines Revealed #4

Dr. Brian Hooker, PhD Biochemical Engineering, has a vaccine injured child with autism. Hooker’s work has to do with cleaning up toxic environments. He has over 60 peer reviewed papers in environmental restoration and epidemiology research, specifically the connections between vaccines and neurodevelopment disabilities.

Thimerosal is 50 percent mercury by weight. Three of his son’s vaccines had Thimerosal in it. He received over 100 micrograms of mercury which exceeds the EPA and FDA guidelines for a single dose of mercury for an infant of his size. Even if he had this vaccine as an adult he would have to weigh over 550 lbs to process that amount of mercury.

Hooker explains that had they known their son would have been exposed to these sorts of toxins in the quantity they are given, they never would have gone through with vaccination.

8:30 Given the current bloated CDC schedule since 1998 when his son was born, Hooker questions if his son would have even survived the vaccines given today.

10:00 Hooker explains he and his wife planned on having other children but due to the 24/7 care his vaccine injured son requires they decided against it. Their son sleeps 3-4 hours a night requiring them to take shifts. Autism causes a drastic alteration of life.

12:00 Hooker’s convinced that the vaccines are the culprit. They watched the progression of damage with each successive vaccine; however, they didn’t have a baseline to judge this change. Before his 15 month vaccine their son had language skills. All of that was lost after the vaccine. He understands language but cannot speak but for a few words at 18.

14:00 The financial impact is immense. His son continually breaks things that need replacing. He’s self injurious and puts holes in the wall. Many of his therapies are not covered by insurance including over the counter supplements. Hooker has had to undertake 3 jobs to pay for this cost.

16:30 Hooker and his wife had a bad experience with the public preschool and have homeschooled their son the entire time. Hooker also had a challenging time this year when he faced incoming Freshmen at college as this year would have been the year his son would have started college if he wasn’t damaged. He went from teaching college to kids his son’s age and then would return home to help his 18 year old son with Barney and Bob the Builder videos.

19:20 According to Hooker, in 2001 the CDC knew Thimerosal was causing Autism and was working to cover in up. But the CDC and FDA proclaimed with a religious fervor that Thimerosal was safe.

26:00 The CDC stopped all ability for Hooker to talk to CDC researchers. The only way he could get information was by submitting FOIA requests. Hooker states a CDC study in Denmark used statistics to lie about the autism incidence. They removed the last data point for their benefit.

31:00 CDC does their own studies and plays a shell game so no one can reanalyze their data.

 

Toni Bark interviews Dawn Loughborough, a mother of a vaccine injured child
Toni then interviews Sarah Bridges, neuropsychologist, also is also a mother of a vaccine injured child with a brain injury from the pertussis vaccine.

1:43:00 It took them 7 years to get a settlement from what doctors told them was an open and shut case of vaccine injury from the pertussis vaccine.

Iowa Lyme Bill Passes Unanimously

Unanimous legislative approval for bill on Lyme Disease treatment

The Iowa legislature has voted to let Iowa doctors prescribe more aggressive treatment for Lyme Disease than is currently allowed by the state’s Board of Medicine, but the state’s medical community opposes the move.

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2017/03/24/iowa-lyme-bill-sign-into-law/  See this link for bill wording.

According to Representative Sandy Salmon of Janesville, the state Board of Medicine disciplined two doctors for prescribing antibiotics for more than 30 days as treatment for Lyme Disease.

“This has had the effect of quashing the willingness of Iowa medical providers to treat and even diagnose Lyme Disease,” Salmon said during House debate of the bill.

Senator Brad Zaun of Urbandale said legislators have been convinced by Lyme Disease patients that this move is necessary.

“Time and time again you can’t get treatment in the State of Iowa. They go to Missouri. They go to Minnesota. They go to different states. The people that have this disease, these doctors in Iowa just stay away,” Zaun said during Senate debate. “They’re just uncomfortable making that diagnosis.”

Left untreated, Lyme Disease can cause inflammation of the brain and problems with short-term memory. Three senators with personal experience urged their colleagues to act. Senator Mark Lofgren of Muscatine said his daughter went from doctor-to-doctor in Iowa and finally, last year, a Minnesota doctor diagnosed her with Lyme Disease.

“They figured out she’s probably had it more than five years and when you’ve had it that long, it’s very involved. She’s been through a lot of challenges with it,” Lofgren said. “…Unfortunately, by going all the way to Minnesota, it’s cost her a lot of money. Her insurance hasn’t covered a lot of it. She’s 26, so she doesn’t have a lot of money. She’s pretty much drained all of her savings. I support this bill. This will make it less challenging for others.”

Seventeen years ago, Senator Rita Hart of Wheatland was convinced her six-year-old son had Lyme Disease, but she could not convince an Iowa doctor that he had been sickened by a tick bite.

“We spent a month of hell going back and forth to doctors who kept telling us: ‘It’s just a virus,’” Hart said.

Hart said the boy ran a high temperature off and on for a couple of weeks, then as they were sitting in a doctor’s waiting room, her son broke out in large rashes that signaled “second stage” Lyme Disease.

“Usually that rash only happens with children and it doesn’t happen with every one, so we were so fortunate because as soon as the doctor saw the rash, he said: ‘Oh, yeah, that’s Lyme Disease,” Hart said. “…If he had not broken out with that rash in front of the doctor’s eyes, I don’t think we would have gotten the diagnosis.”

Senator Mark Chelgren of Ottumwa said several years ago he saw a red ring on his 11-year-old son’s back. The senator took his son to the doctor, it was diagnosed as Lyme Disease and the boy was quickly cured.

“We were lucky that I saw it when I saw him coming out of the shower,” Chelgren said. “…Many people in Iowa are not so lucky. This bill helps those individuals. Lyme Disease is a real problem and a real issue we can deal with today.”

The Iowa Medical Society and other groups representing physicians oppose the bill. The mainstream medical consensus is there’s no data indicating antibiotics should be prescribed long-term as treatment for Lyme Disease and no evidence Lyme Disease can become a chronic condition. However, the bill representing the opposing view won unanimous support in the Iowa House a week ago and the Senate yesterday.

Representative Salmon said action is needed because Iowa now ranks 17th among the 50 states for reported cases of Lyme Disease.

“This bill is about freedom of choice and access for Lyme patients and freedom for medical providers to work with their patients, to look at the options and provide them with the best treatment possible without fear of discipline,” Salmon said.

In 2010, lawmakers in Minnesota passed a moratorium on disciplinary action against doctors who aggressively treat Lyme Disease. The Iowa legislature’s bill now awaits review by Governor Branstad. It would still allow the Board of Medicine to review cases in which patients with Lyme Disease die or are seriously injured by treatment.

**Thought for the day:  The current CDC/IDSA approach to chronically infected Lyme/MSIDS patients is obviously leading to untold suffering and even death.  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2017/03/09/remember-vicki-logan/  People infected with pathogens including Lyme are commonly misdiagnosed and under treated.

At the heart of the issue is that long-term antibiotics haven’t been proven to cure MSIDS. http://www.nytimes.com/library/national/science/health/052300hth-lyme-debate.html

So, why isn’t more meaningful research being done?  Why has this remained unsolved for over 3 decades?  

According to Lorraine Johnson, CEO of Lymedisease.org, the last study on chronic Lyme/MSIDS treatment was 14 years ago and studied a total of 129 people!  This is a disease that is estimated to affect nearly 400,000 people with new cases per year!  And these numbers do not include those who are chronically infected that tested negative on the CDC 2-tier testing (and there are many).  She also states that while researchers claim coinfections are rare, https://www.mylymedata.org, a research project pooling patient experiences has shown that 50% of chronically infected patients have coinfections.  These coinfections complicate treatment for Lyme (borrelia) exponentially. https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2017/03/02/lyme-reason-interview-with-lorraine-johnson/

There is an entire group of medical doctors, researchers and practitioners who are in disagreement that long term antibiotics do not help Lyme/MSIDS patients and have formed a group called ILADS (International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society).  Those folks have case studies and clinical examples of folks getting better with long-term antibiotic treatment and have written about this prolifically. For the CDC/IDSA and other doctors to ignore this work is asinine.  

Now it is true that throwing doxy indefinitely like napalm at this is not going to help many because there are numerous strains involved as well as numerous pathogens.  Some of these pathogens are malarial-like and those patients are only going to get better when they are given specific antimicrobials to deal with those specific pathogens.  Mainstream doctors are woefully ill-equipped for this complexity and need to obtain specific medical education to deal with Lyme/MSIDS (Multi systemic infectious disease syndrome or Lyme with coinfections).

 

 

 

Vaccines Revealed #3/VAXXED

Vaccines Episode 3

2:00 Robert Kennedy Jr. first got involved with vaccines due to his work concerning clean water. Since mercury is one issue relating to water purity and the fact it gets into fish and then into humans, dots began to connect when a woman with a vaccine injured child approached him & gave him some of the science on vaccines. His interest in environmental law has made him comfortable reading science and he found that there are hundreds of studies showing mercury causes human and animal illness. It’s all on pubmed. And many studies link mercury to Autism.

8:30 There is a huge amount of money from the pharmaceutical companies to the press. He was told that up to 70% of advertising dollars on a non election year can come from pharmaceuticals. There are essentially 6 companies controlling all the media.

10:30 He feels that the idea that children are going to die if they don’t get vaccinated needs to be parsed and explored. He calls this idea a myth.

11:20 CDC is part of the vaccine industry. It’s a captive agency phenomenon. CDC buys and sells over 4 billion in vaccines a year. Both CDC & FDA own vaccine patents and the advisory committees are composed of people who have direct financial ties to vaccines. In 1999 Paul Offit, on the payroll of Merck, sat on the advisory committee of immunization practices and voted to add Rotavirus virus to the schedule, while he had a patent on Rotavirus, and it created an opening for his vaccine which became enormously profitable. He sold it for 186 million 6 years later. He personally made around 29 million from this. This was not illegal under CDC rules. Up to 97% of the folks on the vaccine advisory committee have this sort of conflict of interest.

18:54 Some of these vaccines are brought to market little testing, and certainly not the sort of testing required for other pharmaceuticals (double blind placebo testing over large populations). In 1987, the Vaccine Act created a gold rush in the vaccine business. The profits are huge and there are no consequences for the vaccine industry for injuries.

20:35 The mercury exposure to children has gone from 70 micrograms to 237 micrograms and in 1989, the epidemic in neurological disorders started occuring in children. (ADD, ADHD, tics, necropsy, seizure disorder, anaphylaxis, autism, ASD)

23:18 Autism dramatically exploded. Genes do not cause epidemics, environmental toxins do. The epidemic was across the board except for the unvaccinated populations such as the Amish.

28:30 How can we tell moms not to eat mercury in fish as it causes birth defects, and yet push vaccines? Offit and the CDC states that ethyl mercury (the mercury in vaccines is supposedly is excreted in a week) is not as bad as methyl mercury (from fish and remains in the blood for 54 days) as it is excreted quickly. When Kennedy asked Offit for the studies, the one they use was faulty as the author never showed where the mercury went. It was not excreted in the urine, feces, hair, or nails – where did it go? Is it really being excreted?

31:30 A monkey study revealed that the mercury in vaccines does leave the blood stream quickly, but necroscopy revealed it easily cross the blood brain barrier and was ending up in the brain. A study also showed that the mercury in vaccines is twice as toxic due to its ability to metabolize into organic mercury at twice the rate of the mercury found in fish. When Kennedy spoke to Offit, he backpedaled and stated that a whole mosaic of studies show the safety. When asked to produce them, he never did.

1:07:00  Scott and Melissa Miller, filmmakers, created the film Vaccine Syndrome about the horrific reactions in the military to the Anthrax vaccine as well as the fraud.

1:13:00 shows a clip of the film Vaccine Syndrome.  Heart wrenching.

1:16:36 – 20 min version of VAXXED.  Includes whistleblower, William Thompson’s, information revealing the corruption in the CDC.  Includes Bill Gates stating Dr. Wakefield is a fraud and vaccines do not cause Autism.  Please see: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2017/03/20/interview-with-dr-wakefield/  before you make up your own mind.

1:29:25  When Wakefield recommended parents opt for single vaccines over multiple ones given at the same time, the UK and Merck in the US made unilateral decisions to disallow this, and Wakefield was told the reason was essentially a business one which was not based on the health of children.

When Thompson graphed things out he found that young black boys had a 236% greater chance of getting autism after receiving the MMR vaccine.
