Despite
medical journal evidence going back for at least 60 years and thousands of
parental reports linking the administration of vaccines with infant deaths,
the government and medical community has constantly denied any connection
between the two.
This denial is shown to
be complete nonsense by an article written by John Hanchette and Sunny
Kaplan and published in today?s Gold Coast Bulletin. This article shows
that:
Of 253 infant death
cases awarded more than $US61 compensation, 224 or 86 percent were
attributed to vaccination with DTP (diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough
[pertussis]) vaccine. In these cases, death was originally attributed to
SIDS in 90 or 40 percent of them. Of 771 total claims filed by American
parents from 1990 through to mid-1998, 660 or 86 percentcontained assertions
that DTP was the cause of death, and 43 percentwere classified by medical
authorities at the time of death as SIDS cases.
A second federal database contains 460 reports of children who died within
3 days of receiving DPT shots. This database listed SIDS as a ?reaction?
Studies by the National Institutes of Health, the American organisation
charged with testing vaccines before they are approved for use, showed that
66 percent of all SIDS deaths occur within 24 hours of DPT vaccination.
The Australian Vaccination
Network calls for immediate independent research into the connection
between vaccination and SIDS. While a child is still dying every day from
SIDS, parents have every right to question the use of these toxic vaccines
in their innocent children.
