I didn’t start the war … they did…

I always knew I was never going to vaccinate after having a Hepatitis B vaccine when I was 21 and within months was literally covered with eczema, had severe allergies, autoimmune issues and 7 years of health hell, I was never going to have another vaccine…. [Read More]

NCIRS to look for geographical hotspots in medical exemption data

By 2 Comments

A recently published report called Annual Immunisation Coverage Report 2016 authored by the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance (NCIRS), reveals that medical exemption data will be analysed to look for geographical hotspots.

Exploration of children with at least one medical exemption for a vaccine by geographical area, looking for any ‘hotspots’, will be undertaken as part of a separate report. (page 29)

Compelling New Book: Vaccination Panic in Australia by Professor Brian Martin

By

Brian Martin is an emeritus professor at the University of Wollongong, Australia, and vice president of Whistleblowers Australia. He is the author of 17 books and hundreds of articles on dissent, scientific controversies, nonviolence, democracy, education and other topics.

In 2009 in Australia, a citizens’ campaign was launched to silence public criticism of vaccination. This campaign involved an extraordinary variety of techniques to denigrate, harass and censor public vaccine critics. It was unlike anything seen in other scientific controversies, involving everything from alleging beliefs in conspiracy theories to rewriting Wikipedia entries…. [Read More]

Reminder: Conscientious Objection permitted in New South Wales until the end of this year

By

As most of you will already know, the New South Wales parliament recently passed legislation abolishing the right to conscientiously object to vaccination for the purpose of enrolment in early education services in that state.  The law takes effect on 01 January 2018.

However, as the law applies only to those enrolments on or after that date, and not existing enrolments, unvaccinated or partially vaccinated children may still be enrolled up until 31 December 2017, even if the placement does not commence until 2018.

So, if you were considering enrolling your child in an early education service next year, please ensure the enrolment is finalised before the end of this year…. [Read More]

No Jab No Play NSW: Attacking the right to work and learn makes no economic sense

By

Poverty, Family poverty

Some parents have reported that because of No Jab No Pay/No Play, they can no longer afford accommodation and are now living in their cars.

It is almost impossible to believe that the New South Wales (NSW) LNP government has enacted a No Jab No Play law prohibiting unvaccinated children from being enrolled in early child care and education services, in the absence of any evidence showing that unvaccinated children pose a risk to other children, or the public health more generally, and contrary to the recommendation of an expert committee.

The Report on the Statutory Review of the NSW Public Health Act 2010 was tabled in parliament during November 2016 and included a number of recommendations relevant to the issue of so-called vaccine-preventable disease and vaccination.

Recommendation 31: The Public Health Act should not be amended to remove the conscientious objector exemption to enrolment in a childcare facility. (page 49)

CEO of Chiropractors Association of Australia bows to anti choice brigade

By

Just yesterday, I found out from a Facebook message a dear friend sent me that Professor Matthew Fisher, CEO of the Chiropractors’ Association of Australia (who isn’t even a chiropractor) king-hit the AVN to get brownie points with the very people who want to turn chiropractic into physiotherapy.

Here is what he had to say…

So, let me get this straight. Matthew Fisher said that the Chiropractors’ Association of Australia does not support views promoted by the AVN. Which views might these be Professor Fisher? Could it be:… [Read More]

Dr Matthias Rath – A speech to hear and share!

Dr. Rath’s Call to the people of Germany and Europe, Berlin 13-3-2012

We are living in a time of change.
The status quo fights against this change.
If you have any questions, go to https://www.wiki-rath.org/

At a Cancer Free World conference in Berlin, Germany, on 13th March 2012, Dr. Rath called on the people of Germany and Europe to take responsibility for building a democratic Europe for the People and by the People.

Describing how widely available scientific research on natural remedies already makes it clear that the incidence of common diseases can now be reduced to a fraction of their current occurrence, he explained how the building of a new global health care system, based on the prevention and elimination of diseases, is now possible…. [Read More]

The American Medical Association Will Soon Be Able To Force People To Enter Experimental Vaccine Trials | Vactruth.com

By

The American Medical Association published an article on the ‘ethics’ of requiring everyone to participate in vaccine trials and unless they sign an opt-out form, they would be considered to have given their tacit consent to being a guinea pig and allowing their children to also be guinea pigs.

What is society coming to when anyone in their right mind can think this is a good and ethical idea?… [Read More]
