| The Justification For Vaccines Is Collapsing
A
study reported in the British Medical Journal reports that simple
and low cost measures are highly effective for preventing the spread
of viruses. And antivirals are best only for those least in need
of them, healthy adults.

IThe increasingly resisted H1N1 vaccines of still unproven efficacy
and still untested safety must now compete with the proven efficacy
and absolute safety of cheap, flexible, universally available handwashing,
masks, and staying home.
The study by the Acute Respiratory Infections Group at the Cochrane
Collaboration in Rome published in the BMJ now increases the risk
of liability for any agency, state, location or person imposing
vaccines since the vaccines have not been proven effective for stopping
transmission of disease, have not been properly tested, do not comply
with federal law, and risk disease, disability and death.
Handwashing, masks and staying home are proven highly effective
and have zero risk of harm.
This definitive study calls into question all the draconian "preparedness"
laws on the books in states across the country, put in under the
guidance of Bush and Cheney, which eliminated traditional home quarantining
and masks as well public health options while replacing them with
unconstitutional mandatory vaccinations (with no requirement for
testing), forced diagnostic tests, forced taking of bodily samples,
forced unknown and untested treatments, forced unknown and untested
chemical decontamination, forcing people into detention and imposing
huge fines for those who failed to comply, and tracking people and
their vaccination histories with permanent RFID "bracelets."
The intense fear engendered by the WHO about the virus is now easily
answered by cheap, simple, safe measures which make the vaccine
campaign unnecessary, in addition to it being high-cost, safety-questioned,
efficacy-uncertain, increasingly-mandatory and internationally-resisted.

Simple Measures Keep Viruses at Bay
Simple, low-cost measures such as hand-washing, wearing masks, and
quarantining infected patients provide a good shield against the
spread of flu and other respiratory viruses, says a new study.
Doctors led by Tom Jefferson, a professor in the Acute Respiratory
Infections Group at the Cochrane Collaboration in Rome, carried
out an overview of 59 published trials into protective measures
against these microbes.
The pathogens included the ordinary cold virus, the Severe Acute
Respiratory Syndrome virus, and the influenza virus, but not the
current H1N1 pandemic strain.
The trials had widely ranging formats but essentially looked at
the number of people who were infected when protective measures
were implemented, as compared to the number who fell sick when there
was no such protection.
Vaccines and antiviral drugs were not included in these studies.
In hospital settings, regular hand-washing more than 10 times a
day and the use of masks, gloves, and surgical gowns were effective
against spreading respiratory virus, but were especially useful
when combined, according to the paper.
Hygiene measures in the home, targeted particularly at younger children,
also helped prevent transmission.
"Perhaps this is because younger children are least capable
of hygienic behavior and have longer-lived infections and greater
social contact, thereby acting as portals of infection into the
household," the authors said.
Two studies found that isolating potentially infected individuals
was also effective.
But the review uncovered only limited evidence that much-touted
"N95" surgical masks are better than simple face masks.
N95 masks are more uncomfortable and expensive, and they can cause
skin irritation, it found.
"Physical interventions are effective, safe, flexible, universally
applicable, and relatively cheap," the team said.
