• Unwanted H1N1 Vaccines Are HAZMAT And Are Being Disposed Of Accordingly

  At the beginning of last years pharma fund raiser "pandemic", I wrote a lengthy piece reminding readers just how bad mercury really is to humans, and just how high the mercury content in the H1N1 flu shot was. Those vaccines that public heath officials keep referring to has having 'trace amounts' of mercury. I noted that it was so mercury toxic that it was classified as hazardous material and by law must be disposed of according to hazmat rules. Now on the other side of the disease that killed ninety thousand Americans was the mildest flu in recorded history, more than $260 million dollars worth of vaccine, at least 40 million doses, are being disposed of accordingly. Being burnt in hazmat processing facilities with mercury scrubbers to keep this neurotoxin out of our environment. Which again begs the question.... When we work so hard to keep mercury out of our waterways, WHY ARE WE PUTTING THIS POISON INTO OUR BABIES ON PURPOSE!!!!! IT IS ACTUAL HAZARDOUS MATERIAL!!! IT KILLS BRAIN CELLS!!! IT CAUSES MITOCHONDRIAL DISORDERS!!!! Now I am going to be up all night worrying that the poor guy that has to burn all these vaccines is going to end up with Minamata Disease. From Occupational Health and Safety Magazine: Service Will Incinerate Unused H1N1 Vaccine Jul 23, 2010 Clean Harbors, based in Norwell, Mass., is offering the service to health care providers because multiple doses of the vaccine contain enough mercury-based Thimerosal to be treated as a hazardous waste. Clean Harbors of Norwell, Mass., now offers H1N1 Vaccination Incineration Services that will profile, collect, and dispose of unused 2009 H1N1 vaccine for health care customers nationwide. Multiple doses of the vaccine contain enough mercury-based Thimerosal to be treated by EPA as a hazardous waste and will be incinerated. Vaccine dated at the end of 2008 and early 2009 is now at the end of its shelf life and must be disposed, according to the company. The HHS declaration of a 2009 H1N1 Public Health Emergency expired on June 23. "We have seen many customers in various states looking for our H1N1 disposal capabilities," John C. Kelsey, the company's vice president, Healthcare Services, said in a July 22 e-mailed reply to questions about the service. "We wanted to announce it to the larger community as we are growing our customer count related to Healthcare Services. We have done a good amount of work in this area with vaccines through our hospital Pharmaceutical Waste programs." He said the cost varies but is "generally the same pricing as other materials requiring hazardous waste incineration. The vaccine doses are in inventory and will be shipped via DOT packages for proper disposal," Kelsey added. "We are seeing multiple truckloads per week of the vaccine now and cannot align total amounts but we do expect the need to occur from many locations as the normal pathway for outdated items." OLFA North America Unused vaccine doses normally are returned through Reverse Distributors, but these have no value and thus must be disposed as a waste, he said, continuing, "It is good that PHER funds can be used to reimburse organizations for the disposal process." CDC mandates proper disposal of H1N1 vaccines and allows Public Health Emergency Response (PHER) funds to be available for the disposal. Health care providers interested in the service can call 888-304-7035, e-mail healthcareservices@cleanharbors.com, or visit www.cleanharbors.com/healthcare.

• Mercury Containing Vaccine Clinic Closed on Account of Mercury

  A school vaccine clinic in Warwick R.I. had to be shut down this week because someone spilled mercury and a hazmat team needed to be called in. Because we all know that mercury on the ground is dangerous while mercury in a child's veins is safe and even recommended by CDC and AAP. News reports say that a thermometer was accidentally broken, so the cafeteria where the vaccine clinic was being held had to be evacuated. Spill causes scare at local H1N1 clinic Gym evacuated after mercury spills onto floor Updated: Saturday, 05 Dec 2009, 2:39 AM EST Published : Saturday, 05 Dec 2009, 2:38 AM EST WEST WARWICK, R.I. (WPRI) - A chemical spill causes a hazmat scare at a local H1N1 clinic. A thermometer accidentally broke Friday afternoon spilling mercury onto the floor of the gym at the Greenbush School in West Warwick. The gym had to be evacuated. It took crews hours to clean up that spill. But what do you think the chances are of a mercury thermometer being used in a school in 2009? Haven't these gone the way cigarette ads and seat belts that buckle in the middle? Might not the most likely source of a mercury spill during an H1N1 vaccine clinic be the H1N1 Vaccine itself? Because as I called to your attention last month, these shots, being given to children, if spilled on the ground are legally required to be cleaned up by a hazmat team. As a reminder: "the mercury concentration in the H1N1 and seasonal flu shots is exponentially larger than what is considered hazmat material. A comparison of mercury concentrations from Pediatrics: 0.5 parts per billion (ppb) mercury = Kills human neuroblastoma cells (Parran et al., Toxicol Sci 2005; 86: 132-140). 2 ppb mercury = U.S. EPA limit for drinking water http://www.epa.gov/safewater/contaminants/index.html#mcls 20 ppb mercury = Neurite membrane structure destroyed (Leong et al., Neuroreport 2001; 12: 733-37). 200 ppb mercury = level in liquid the EPA classifies as hazardous waste. http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/hazwaste/mercury/regs.htm#hazwaste 25,000 ppb mercury = Concentration of mercury in the Hepatitis B vaccine, administered at birth in the U.S., from 1990-2001. 50,000 ppb Mercury = Concentration of mercury in multi-dose DTaP and Haemophilus B vaccine vials, administered 4 times each in the 1990's to children at 2, 4, 6, 12 and 18 months of age. Current "preservative" level mercury in multi-dose flu (94% of supply), meningococcal and tetanus (7 and older) vaccines. This can be confirmed by simply analyzing the multi- dose vials. In my home state of Maine mercury disposal is regulated by The Hazardous Waste Rules Chapter 850: Maine Department of Environmental Protection Chapter 850: IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDOUS WASTES B. Identification of hazardous wastes by characteristics (5) Characteristic of toxicity (b) A waste that exhibits the characteristic of toxicity has the EPA Hazardous Waste Number specified in Table I which corresponds to the toxic contaminant causing it to be hazardous. Table I. Maximum Concentration of Contaminants for the Toxicity Characteristic EPA Hazardous Waste No.: D009 Contaminant: Mercury Regulatory Level (mg/L): 0.2 mg/L [0.2002 ppm] [200.2 ppb] What this means is that if you took one of the vaccines being injected into the children at my son's elementary school outside and squirted it onto the pavement, a hazmat rules would be triggered and a hasmat team must be called in to clean it up." So is this what happened? Did the school comply with the law and call hazmat in to clean up a thimerosal containing vaccine spill and then lie about it, telling the public that it was a thermometer so that they would not see the violent absurdity of injecting hazardous material into children? Any one near Warwick wanna follow this up and find a witness to this "thermometer" accident?

• The Dangers of Mercury in the H1N1 Vaccine

  Last night I attended a SAD 75 (a Maine school district) public meeting on the H1N1 response and school vaccine clinics. It was a strange experience for me, as I feel like I had stepped back in time to a day ten years ago when giving mercury to children was no big deal, perfectly safe, just like candy really. I pointed out a number of problems with doing so, which I assumed were common knowledge, that proved at the very least that mercury containing vaccines were not desirable and I will list some of those here for those of you who watched the meeting on TV and wanted references to my points. As I want every parent and individual to have the informed consent that I was not given in vaccinating my child, I will also list several other references. I am compiling this tonight and will add as I go, so check back this weekend for the full list. First, a reminder of what mercury does in the brain: CDC reports that approximately 100 children die of the flu every year. It was reported by the panel that 40-50 children die of flu per year, and that the 86 that have died from H1N1 this far had vastly exceeded that number. I told the panel that my understanding was that the number was 100 per year, and that we had not yet exceeded that. I had gotten that number from this CDC video that was posted a year ago on their You Tube Channel (50 seconds in Dr. Jeanne Santoli states that about 100 children die of influenza every year).

• Yes Some of the H1N1 Vaccines/Swine Flu Shots Have Thimerosal/Mercury In Them

  Remember all those talking heads on TV that keep saying that mercury is gone from vaccines and won't be in the H1N1 flu shot? They are misinforming you. Does the Swine Flu shot have mercury in it? The answer is yes... some of them. If you decide to get the shot, INSIST on seeing the vaccine package insert. If you are offered a shot that is drawn from a vial, that will be a mercury containing vaccine. Keep in mind that many parents of children with autism reported that their child received a shot from a multi-dose vial, and then saw the nurse throw the bottle away. Mercury is a heavy metal, and if the nurses who use that vial do not "shake vigorously before use" then the mercury settles at the bottom and the last person to get a shot drawn from that vial gets a "hot shot" with all the mercury in it. This week the FDA released the vaccine package inserts for the upcoming H1N1 vaccines: ____________________________________________________________________ The H1N1 Sanofi Vaccine Package Insert: "Sanofi Pasteur 449/454 Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent Vaccine" 10 September 2009_v0.3 FULL DOSE MERCURY VACCINE - 25mcg EPA says that safety limits are .1mcg per kg of weight per day, which makes th...is vaccine safe for anyone who weights 550 lbs!

• Mercury Containing Swine flu Vaccine May be Cleared After Five-Day Trial

  In London, the Sunday Times is reporting that "When the new vaccine for swine flu arrives in Britain, regulators said this weekend, it could be approved for use in just five days." No word yet on how long the trials for the H1N1 shots will last in the US. I have spoken to an official at the Maine health department who is reporting that the vaccine delivered here will be one that comes in multidose vials, therefore will be a mercury containing vaccine. Last week, HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius said that HHS was "anticipating a voluntary" H1N1 vaccine program this fall, which leaves room for the possibility that HHS could change their minds and make it mandatory. I would encourage everyone to keep an eye on this story as it develops, as hastily manufactured, tested and delivered vaccines that are not held up to the same scrutiny that is standard during FDA licensure certainly would have a greater potential for adverse reactions when introduced to the general public. Swine flu vaccine to be cleared after five-day trial July 12, 2009 The Sunday Times byJon Ungoed-Thomas The path of a popular medicine from the laboratory to the chemist or doctor’s surgery can involve years of clinical trials on a select group of patients. When the new vaccine for swine flu arrives in Britain, regulators said this weekend, it could be approved for use in just five days. Regulators at the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) said the fast-tracked procedure has involved clinical trials of a “mock-up” vaccine similar to the one that will be used for the biggest mass vaccination programme in generations. It will be introduced into the general population while regulators continue to carry out simultaneous clinical trials. The first patients in the queue for the jab - being supplied to the UK by GSK and Baxter Healthcare - may understandably be a little nervous at any possible side effects. A mass vaccination campaign against swine flu in America was halted in the 1970s after some people suffered Guillain-Barré syndrome, a disorder of the nervous system. However, regulators said fast-tracking would not be at the expense of patient safety. “The vaccines are authorised with a detailed risk management plan,” the EMEA said. “There is quite a body of evidence regarding safety on the trials of the mock-up, and the actual vaccine could be assessed in five days.” The UK government has ordered enough vaccine to cover the entire population. GPs are being told to prepare for a nationwide vaccination campaign. Dr Peter Holden, the British Medical Association’s lead negotiator on swine flu, who has been attending Department of Health meetings on the outbreak, said GPs’ surgeries were prepared for one of the biggest vaccination campaigns in almost 50 years. He said although swine flu was not causing serious illness in patients, health officials were eager to start a mass vaccination campaign, starting first on priority groups. First, the jabs would reduce the chances of a shortage of hospital beds because of people suffering from swine flu. Second, it would reduce the effect on the economy by ensuring workers were protected from the virus. “The high-risk groups will be done at GPs’ surgeries. People are still making decisions over this, but we want to get cracking before we get a second wave, which is traditionally far more virulent.” Holden said it was likely the elderly would be given their seasonal flu jab as well as the swine flu vaccination. The new vaccine is likely to require two doses. Details of the inoculation plans emerged after the death of a patient, reportedly a middle-aged man, at a hospital in the Basildon area of Essex. The victim had no underlying health problems, but officials say there is no evidence the swine flu virus had mutated into a more dangerous strain. Holden said it would be the biggest campaign in response to an outbreak since mass vaccination against smallpox in 1962. He said surgeries would be aiming to inoculate about 30 people an hour in a “military-style operation”. The Department of Health said it had still not finalised which groups would be vaccinated first, but children, frontline health workers, people with underlying illnesses and the elderly are likely to take priority. The European Commission is also identifying population groups which it believes should get priority. It is keen to ensure that countries such as the UK, which had ordered supplies of the vaccine in advance, do not cause inequities in treatment elsewhere in Europe. It warned health ministers in a note circulated last month that if the vaccines were more readily available in some countries it could cause “vaccine tourism/shopping in other member states”. About 15 people have died of swine flu in Britain, but most of those infected get only mild symptoms. According to the latest figures from the Health Protection Agency, the UK has had 9,718 confirmed cases of the disease.
