The latest screed from Danielle O’Dell for the Money Map Report is aimed at first getting you all fired up about Obamacare, in case you’re one of the seven people in the United States that doesn’t already have a strong opinion about that law’s impending enactment, and then, more importantly, at telling you that she’s got a way for you to profit from Obamacare instead of getting angry about it.
Why? Well, the obvious answer is: writing stuff about Obamacare gets people fired up.
And fired-up people read through long sales letters and are motivated to take action.
Actions like, say, subscribing to newsletters.
I’m sure every single person reading this has their own personal opinion about the troubles with our health care system, and about all possible proposed solutions, and the polls certainly tell us that everyone hates Obamacare even as most of us don’t quite understand how it’s going to end up working — since the rollout of the health care exchanges has been so botched “I hate Obamacare” is certainly an easy opinion to come by even if you generally like some sort of universal or single-payer health care system or a reorganization of the health insurance market, and even if you personally might be a beneficiary of the new system.
So I won’t dwell on Obamacare or on the political aspects of it, and I don’t really much care what Danielle’s opinion is on that or her “countdown to catastrophe” doomsday clock for the enactment of part of the Affordable Care Act on January 1 … we’ll just try to figure out what stock O’Dell is touting as a play on this big change to the health insurance markets.
And yes, in order to even get to the ideas of how to profit from Obamacare we need first to sit through an interminable sales pitch about the free “Beating Obamacare” book that they’ll give you for subscribing — but you could, of course, buy Beating Obamacare
Well, let’s first see what stock or investment they’re promoting as their way to profit from Obamacare — this isn’t the first “Obamacare profits” pitch we’ve heard, and I suspect it won’t be the last, but we’d be delighted to figure out the specifics for you if we can.
The pitches about specific investment ideas come from Keith Fitz-Gerald, one of the analysts behind the Money Map Report and a few other Money Map newsletters, here’s a taste of his spiel after he takes over from Danielle in this ad “presentation”:
“OBAMACARE: DON’T GET MAD, GET RICH!
“Let me give you just one quick example of what you’ll find in this free special report…
“Everybody on Wall Street ASSUMES that Obamacare will hurt companies that depend on hourly-wage workers the most…
“Especially fast-food companies…
“Because fast-food companies are going to have a hard time giving health insurance to millions of employees who barely make minimum wage…
“It makes sense, right?
“But wait…
“The folks who run these giant fast-food chains aren’t stupid…
“If they simply take their 40-hour-per-week FULL-TIME employees…
“And turn them into 30-hour-per-week PART-TIME employees…
“They won’t have to pay a penny in health insurance!
“And all that savings will go right to the bottom line…
“In other words, Obamacare will FORCE these companies to become even more profitable than they are today…”

So I guess McDonald’s is the “freebie” pick that he’s willing to share with anyone who sits through the ad pitch, and he goes into a bit more detail here:
“So invest in McDonald’s, because unlike many other American companies…
“McDonald’s will not only remain unscathed by Obamacare…
“Obamacare will actually FORCE McDonald’s to become more profitable than it is today!
“But at roughly $90+ a share, it’s not easy for the average investor to take a large position in McDonald’s…
“Nor is it the kind of stock that could double or triple in value over a short period of time…
“Because blue-chip stocks like McDonald’s don’t usually do that…”
I don’t know how much of an impact Obamacare might have on McDonald’s future, but I’d guess that the shares have “taken a breather” over the last six months probably at least as much because they had gotten kind of expensive and the company was generating only about 2% sales growth as because of any health insurance concerns.
And he throws out another (very) thinly veiled idea in fast food:
“HINT…
“In China nowadays, Colonel Sanders’ chicken is more popular than General Tso’s!”
I’m under the impression that General Tso’s Chicken is a “Chinese American” dish popularized entirely in Chinese restaurants in the US, though I’m sure you can now get it in Beijing … but yes, Kentucky Fried Chicken has been a big hit in China, and China was the source of much of their growth over the last decade — though, like McDonald’s, KFC parent Yum Brands (YUM) has had some trouble “breaking through” to new highs over the last 18 months as sales have often come out a bit lighter than expected, in part because of slowed growth in China. Optimism has perked up a bit more recently and YUM is now again trading at a nice stiff premium to the market, with a forward PE of about 20.
I don’t know how anyone on earth can resist fried chicken, so perhaps YUM will take over the world eventually … but I don’t find the stock particularly mouthwatering at this valuation. And of course, we didn’t have to pull the Thinkolator out of the garage for that one — anyone can find the stock ticker for Yum Brands in about 30 seconds, and it might take 30 seconds again to learn that KFC is owned by Yum brands if that wasn’t already part of your mindscape.
Then we get into the one that’s really held out as “secret” — it’s about health care, so it’s probably more specifically relevant to Obamacare. He does say that some pharma companies are going to reap windfalls because of all the new customers, but doesn’t specifically hint about any individual ones … until he talks about vaccines. Here’s a bit of the tease:
“Buried in the 2,572 pages of the Affordable Care Act are two little paragraphs that could make you very rich indeed…
“When you clear away all the government gobbledygook, one of these paragraphs says…
“The federal government may enter into contracts with private companies to buy vaccines…
“And the other paragraph says…
“The government not only will be buying more vaccines, but it also will be promoting their benefits…”
So there’s the profit potential — Fitz-Gerald cites reports that the vaccine market could be growing by 15% a year, which would be a nice big tailwind for any company selling a lot of vaccines. Which stock does he like to benefit from that?
Well, he does mention the large cap vaccine leader …
“… you could buy GlaxoSmithKline, which is the market leader in vaccines with 23% global market share…
“Unfortunately, at roughly $50 a share for GSK, the potential for growth is limited…”
That always gets my goat a little bit — it might be that GSK’s potential is “limited” … but it’s not because the stock is at $50 a share, it’s because it’s a mega-billion-dollar company with a history of ups and downs, and because the vaccine business is a relatively small part of a big company. A $2 company is not necessarily one with better growth potential than a $50 company, you have to look at the size and prospects of the individual company, and though low share prices tend to go with small companies that’s certainly not always the case (for those who don’t know, the market capitalization is the number that really tells you the size of a company — that’s the number of shares times the share price. GSK is not a $50 company, it’s a $125 billion company … or, if you want to take it a step further and be more analytical, it’s got an “enterprise value” of $150 billion — enterprise value means you add the net debt to the market capitalization, it’s the price you’d pay today if you bought all the shares and paid off the company’s debts).
But anyway, I don’t want to get too far off track — the pitch is that there’s a small vaccine company Fitz-Gerald likes:
“… what if I told you there was another stock that’s currently selling at only $1.90 a share…
“And this company actually MAKES their own vaccines in the laboratory by synthesizing them out of DNA…
“So theoretically, they can attack virtually ANY infectious disease around the world…
“From AIDS… to Bird Flu… to Typhoid… you name it!
“Buy 10,000 shares of this company and you’ll pay only $19,000…
“But if Obamacare causes it to rise to $5 a share, your position could be worth $50,000….
“If it goes to $10 a share, you’ll have $100,000…
“And if it goes up to $25 a share, you might be sitting on a quarter of a million dollars!”
So … hoodat? Thinkolator sez it’s Inovio Pharmaceuticals (INO)
Which is indeed a synthetic vaccine company, though it’s not yet a vaccine-selling company so they won’t be benefitting from any increase in insured vaccinations immediately — their most advanced vaccine currently is in Phase II trials.
And yes, their platform does allow for the potential for vaccines that can protect against diseases much more fully than current standard vaccine technology — broadly reaching more of the viruses or cancer cells they’re targeting. The platform is called SynCon, and it is basically a vaccine shell that can be quickly directed toward specific antigens and which is combined with some kind of targeted electrical stimulant — in the case of therapeutic cancer vaccines, that means that it looks like they can generate a lot of T cells quickly to fight off the cancer.
I am not a biotech expert by any means, but Inovio has had a remarkable year filled with extremely promising early-stage studies — there was a wave of insider buying in the shares about six months ago when it was down around 50 cents a share, and then they released a half dozen encouraging studies in infectious disease and cancer and the stock shot up briefly to $3. It’s been quite volatile in recent months, but is currently right at about $1.90.
INO says they have enough cash to get them through about the next year and a half, which is good because they’re in the midst of a large number of studies that will be burning up cash — the have six studies they’ll be initiating next year, according to their recent presentation, and while none of them are the huge Phase III studies they’re still bound to cost millions.
So as with many biotechs, this one is all about a platform and about the future — it’s not about revenues or earnings just yet. There is a nice validation of their platform implied by a big deal with Roche for a couple of their vaccines, and the results have certainly sounded awfully good from their early stage clinical trials this year. I don’t know what hangups there might be in getting synthetic vaccines approved by the FDA, or if there will be issues when we get to large-scale safety trials (Phase III), but the efficacy of at least some of these therapeutic cancer vaccines looks impressive early on. The therapeutic cancer vaccines are the first wave for INO, including their lead candidate for HPV and cervical cancer, but I suspect we won’t see a Phase III clinical trial before the end of 2015 so there’s a long way to go before we start thinking about whether a 15% increase in the vaccines business is going to help them post good revenues.
And that’s about all I know about Inovio — the science and promise are enticing, they are in decent financial shape, but they’re not going to get a boost from vaccine spending in general unless it speeds up their clinical trials over the next couple years. I do have positions in two medical-sector stocks, but neither is a biotech or drug developer in a major way, and only one of them, a REIT, has really been touted as a play on Obamacare (the stocks are Ligand Pharmaceuticals and Medical Properties Trust, just FYI). Have an opinion you’d like to share about these guys, or about the other potential vaccine or health care winners of the next era in US health care? Let us know with a comment below.
WOW! Travis, this is I think the first time you’ve uncovered a tease about a stock I already own (have owned it since 50 cents). So was indeed very interested in hearing some comments and thoughts on it .
Oh well! Maybe next time.
Very good arguments Brenton. There is nothing wrong in protecting the public with vaccines. They are just overdone because of the profit motive and what I think is a travesty, that the companies have no liability. Let us make a good thing safer.
Wow, vaccinations get everybody in a frenzy. Kinda reminds me of a secretary I had when I ran a water purification company. I told her that flouride was bad, she said it saved teeth, I said there wasn’t a documented study proving that on planet earth and got the books out to prove it……..she broke down and started crying….like she just found out there was no Santa Claus.
For those of you so vociferously defending shots, may I suggest some research?
For starters go to http://www.mercola.com Dr Mercola is widely recognized as an expert in health and nutrition. He is not “anti” but he is very wary and has the guts to examine both sides.
Great analogy Bruce, would be interesting to know how many of the meekly acceptance sheeple have actually seriously looked at BOTH SIDES of a contentious issue, or perhaps even more pertinent, made sure they did not take anything into their bodies without FIRST checking out the documented SIDE EFFECTS? These are not minor either, just read the ads on T.V where contra indications far out number supposed benefits. I see at least half a dozen advertised drugs that include DEATH as a potential side effect, and the general consensus is still that benefits outweigh the risks, not for me they don’t.
From some time in the 1400’s until the end of the 20th century, truth was sought through the application of the Scientific Method. Knowledge and civilization advanced. Some time towards the end of the 20th century, The search for truth returned to the tools of revealed truth, and faith. I’m pretty sure before long we will be returning to trial by torture. Oh wait, we already did in Iraq and Chicago. Let the witch burning begin.
There always have been, and always will be people with a divergent view from the facts, logic and reason.
It’s just now it’s much easier for them to publicise and gather and thus lobby on that view. Even moreso if they have some funds to back them.
Could we perhaps revise your prejudiced statement to suggest that a majority of easily influenced people with minimal research will follow the herd over a cliff rather than take an unpopular stance based on principal, derived by checking what are presented as facts by people who have a monetary interest and applying logic and reason?
WOW! This thread has gotten way off topic and way too political. Back to INO. In the short term the only way this company will produce a sizable return is through an acquisition (perhaps GSK).
I agree. Makes it not worth looking at.
gen tso chicken not availanbe in so.calif instead they serve gen ching chicken as my Chinese waiter says as long as it a gen more or less its suitable for the masses
Not sure if polio is treated with a vacine but think it is amazing that it is 90% eradicated since I was a child. If that is the result of a vacine somebody did something right !
Until you are personally affected, you can rationalize your position on vaccinations. I worked in a hospital for over 25 years and never thought twice about taking the required vaccines. After I developed sever Bell’s palsy from a hepatitis booster, my neurologist told me never to take another vaccine, which I didn’t for the next 11 years. Hospitals currently require all employees to get annual flu shots or wear surgical masks for 6 months during flu season. Some hospitals will terminate employees who refuse to take them even with valid excuses. I never got the flu, though I did wear a mask. If everyone would cover their cough, and wash their hands after exposure, it would reduce the spread of flu, and other diseases exponentially. The hospital did not require documentation from the physicians and they could just state they had taken the flu vaccine. Curiously, many I asked refused to take them.
I believe you are the first documented case of Bell’s palsy caused by a vaccine!! Your Dr I’m sure will write a paper on this. Or maybe not. Since the cause of Bell’s is usually undetermined, I assume there is no direct link. You developed Bell’s you thought back and remembered a booster vaccination, you put 2 and 2 together and got 5, I seriously doubt any physician would put his rep on the line and state unconditionally that the booster caused Bell’s.
Eating vegetables won’t keep you from getting polio. Many clueless posters are probably too young to remember when every school had one or more children dragging a withered leg or with a twisted body because of polio. Movie theaters and swimming pools closed in the summer. That was all that could be done. By the way, the earth isn’t flat. Thought you’d like to know.
All statements listed between Numbers 11 and 12 above dated Dec 1 are not mine. What gives ? Am I being hacked?
wonders never cease…another person in the world named Leo; actually, I was wondering if I was being hacked…then I saw an entry with my Dad’s name! woah, too freaky
Back to the science thing…I have respect for the investigative discipline which science has, but missing from the perspective here is the significant factor of doubt that accompanies scientific pronouncements, to whit, science doesn’t believe itself, or should I say it’s pronouncements and infact imbues findings with caveats and further investigation, testing of results and conclusions. If this were not the case, let’s see, who was the first scientist…sdewww
Seriously! Science doesn’t believe itself?!! The scientific method by definition says we don’t know everything, never will. (As opposed to some who believe they know everything.) All knowledge is subject to new findings, theories and data. That being said the best science today says vaccinations have been and still are the way to go. As for tomorrow? I think Woody Allen said it best in his movie SLEEPER. When a cryogenically frozen Woody is thawed in the distant future, one man says “This guy’s 50! He looks terrible!” His partner responds “Well you have to remember he lived in a time before they knew the benefits of a high fat high, high cholesterol diet.
efinition says that we don’t know everything, never will, and all science is revisable by new data. Saying that the best science now available says vaccination is the way to go given available data. But I think Woody Allen said it best in the movie SLEEPER. When Woody Allen’s cryogenically frozen body is thawed in the distant future, one man says to the other: “This guy’s 50! He looks terrible!” And the other guy says: “Yeah, but
well I’m glad you got my point, Brad…exactly as you say: “we don’t know everything, never will”; in other words, science is always sceptical of it’s own claims… so we civilians take information, scientific or otherwise, which we churn through our limited understanding seasoned with our own particular biases and talk about it on blogs. My over all point is that there is a lot of opinion that is claimed as fact, to the benefit of the claimer and the detriment of those that are the target of the claims. It’s more the case than not these days. There are some sites, including this one, that serve to shed light on the claims that don’t hold up and reveal possible motivations of those who make the claims (generally making money)…
NOW I NEED A COMPUTER SCIENTIST TO TELL ME HOW THE HECK THAT HAPPENED!
I received yourfull text in my email…
I totally understand and agree with you Leo. The point I want to emphasize though is that no one really knows for sure what a stock is going to do in the next year. And new and better medical information will be available in the future. But whether I’m purchasing a stock, or making health care decisions for my family, I want to use the best available scientific info at this moment. Its not perfect (as my portfolio can attest). But it gives me the best chance to do well for my family. So even though it won’t put a nickel in my pocket I encourage people to vaccinate their children.
The Vaccine Hoax Is Over
By Andrew Baker
Food Freedom News
Freedom of Information Act in the UK filed by a doctor there has revealed 30 years of secret official documents showing that government experts have
1. Known the vaccines don’t work
2. Known they cause the diseases they are supposed to prevent
3. Known they are a hazard to children
4. Colluded to lie to the public
5. Worked to prevent safety studies
Those are the same vaccines that are mandated to children in the US.
Educated parents can either get their children out of harm’s way or continue living inside one of the largest most evil lies in history, that vaccines – full of heavy metals, viral diseases, mycoplasma, fecal material, DNA fragments from other species, formaldehyde, polysorbate 80 (a sterilizing agent) – are a miracle of modern medicine.
Freedom of Information Act filed in the US with the CDC by a doctor with an autistic son, seeking information on what the CDC knows about the dangers of vaccines, had by law to be responded to in 20 days. Nearly 7 years later, the doctor went to court and the CDC argued it does not have to turn over documents. A judge ordered the CDC to turn over the documents on September 30th, 2011.
On October 26, 2011, a Denver Post editorial expressed shock that the Obama administration, after promising to be especially transparent, was proposing changes to the Freedom of Information Act that would allow it to go beyond declaring some documents secret and to actually allow government agencies (such as the CDC) to declare some document “non-existent.”
Simultaneous to this on-going massive CDC cover up involving its primary “health” not recommendation but MANDATE for American children, the CDC is in deep trouble over its decades of covering up the damaging effects of fluoride and affecting the lives of all Americans, especially children and the immune compromised. Lawsuits are being prepared. Children are ingesting 3-4 times more fluoride by body weight as adults and “[t]he sheer number of potentially harmed citizens — persons with dental fluorosis, kidney patients tipped into needing dialysis, diabetics, thyroid patients, etc — numbers in the millions.”
The CDC is obviously acting against the health of the American people. But the threat to the lives of the American people posed by the CDC’s behavior does not stop there. It participated in designed pandemic laws that are on the books in every state in the US, which arrange for the government to use military to force unknown, untested vaccines, drugs, chemicals, and “medical” treatments on the entire country if it declares a pandemic emergency.
The CDC’s credibility in declaring such a pandemic emergency is non-existent, again based on Freedom of Information Act. For in 2009, after the CDC had declared the H1N1 “pandemic,” the CDC refused to respond to Freedom of Information Act filed by CBS News and the CDC also attempted to block their investigation. What the CDC was hiding was its part in one of the largest medical scandals in history, putting out wildly exaggerated data on what it claimed were H1N1 cases, and by doing so, created the false impression of a “pandemic” in the US.
The CDC was also covering up e financial scandal to rival the bailout since the vaccines for the false pandemic cost the US billions. And worse, the CDC put pregnant women first in line for an untested vaccine with a sterilizing agent, polysorbate 80, in it. Thanks to the CDC, “the number of vaccine-related “fetal demise” reports increased by 2,440 percent in 2009 compared to previous years, which is even more shocking than the miscarriage statistic [700% increase].
Wellness Resources
The exposure of the vaccine hoax is running neck and neck with the much older hoax of a deadly 1918-19 flu. It was aspirin that killed people in 1918-19, not a pandemic flu. It was the greatest industrial catastrophe in human history with 20-50 million people dying but it was blamed on a flu. The beginning of the drug industry began with that success (and Monsanto was part of it). The flu myth was used by George Bush to threaten the world with “another pandemic flu that could kill millions” – a terror tactic to get pandemic laws on the books in every state and worldwide. Then the CDC used hoax of the pandemic hoax to create terror over H1N1 and to push deadly vaccines on the public, killing thousands of unborn children and others. (CDC will not release the data and continues to push the same vaccine.)
The hoax of the vaccine schedule is over, exposed by FOIAs in the UK.
The hoax of the CDC’s interest in children’s lives has been exposed by its refusal to respond to a doctor’s FOIAs around its knowledge of vaccine dangers.
The 1918-19 pandemic hoax has been exposed by Dr. Karen Starko’s work on aspirin’s role in killing people.
And despite refusing to respond to FOIAS, the CDC’s scandalous hoax of a 2009 flu pandemic and its part in creating it, was exposed by CBS NEWS.
And the Obama administration, in attempting to salvage the last vestige of secrecy around what is really happening with vaccines, by declaring agency documents non-existent, has made its claim of transparency, non-existent.
But pandemic laws arranging for unknown vaccines to be forced on the entire country are still in place with HHS creating a vaccine mixture that should never be used on anyone and all liability for vaccines having been removed. Meanwhile, a Canadian study has just proven that the flu vaccine containing the H1N1 vaccine which kills babies in utero, actually increases the risk of serious pandemic flu.
Americans who have been duped into submitting their children to the CDC’s deadly vaccines, have a means to respond now. People from every walk of life and every organization, must
1. take the information from the UK FOIAs exposing 30 years of vaccine lies, the refusal of the CDC to provide any information on what it knows about those lies, and the Obama Administration’s efforts to hide the CDC’s awareness of those lies, and go to their state legislatures, demand the immediate nullification of the CDC vaccine schedule and the pandemic laws.
2. inform every vet. active duty military person, law enforcement people, DHS agents and medical personnel they know, of the vaccine hoax, for their families are deeply threatened, too, but they may not be aware of it or that they have been folded into agency structures by the pharmaceutical industry (indistinguishable from the bankers and oil companies) that would make them agents of death for their country with the declaration of a “pandemic” emergency or “bio-terrorist” attack. It is completely clear now that the terrorism/bioterrorism structures are scams so that any actions taken to “protect” this country using those laws would in fact be what threatens the existence of Americans.
It was aspirin that killed millions in 1918-19. Now it is mandated and unknown, untested vaccines with banned adjuvants in them that threaten the country with millions of deaths. At the same time, the CDC is holding 500,000 mega-coffins, built to be incinerated, on its property outside Atlanta. Not to put too fine a point on this, but it’s clear now that the CDC should not be involved in any way with public health.
Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), we know that vaccines are not a miracle of modern medicine. Any medical or government authority which insists vaccines prevent diseases is either ignorant of government documents (and endless studies) revealing the exact opposite or of the CDC’s attempts to hide the truth about vaccines from the public, or means harm to the public.
Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), we know the vaccine schedule is a hoax.
The health danger to American children and adults are vaccines.

Thank you Robert for having the courage to tell the truth. I know all to well how difficult it is to believe that some people are willing to put PROFIT ahead of the best interests of their fellowman. I struggled with the idea for many years, BEFORE admitting to myself that YES some people are either, (and you have to make a choice here) so totally brainwashed they can not make a moral decision, or so GREEDY and EVIL nothing will dissuade them from their course of action to enrich themselves at the expense of the average clueless consumer.
Thank you for providing credible information that counters medical propaganda.
So I am either GREEDY and EVIL or brainwashed since I totally disagree with you? And I always thought I was such a nice boy!
Then I guess you must be brainwashed, that is if you read Robert’s submission from creditable sources and it dosen’t put even a dent in your iron clad beliefs in medical science as being virtually infallible and should be followed without even considering contra indicated facts.
Breaking: Courts discreetly confirm MMR vaccine causes autism
by Jonathan Benson, staff writer
(NaturalNews) You won’t hear anything about it from the mainstream media, but the federal government’s kangaroo “vaccine court” has once again conceded, albeit quietly, that the combination measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine does, indeed, cause autism. In a recently published ruling, part of which was censored from public view, a young boy was awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars after it was determined that the MMR vaccine led to a confirmed diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Ten-year-old Ryan Mojabi’s parents say he first suffered an encephalopathy after being vaccinated for MMR on December 19, 2003. Known as a “table injury,” encephalopathy is a recognized, compensable adverse reaction to vaccines, and one that the kangaroo vaccine court has previously linked to vaccines. According to Ryan’s parents, the MMR vaccine caused their son’s encephalopathy, which manifested as “neuroimmunologically mediated dysfunctions in the form of asthma and ASD.”
After being bumped around from court to court, Ryan’s case was eventually heard by the vaccine court’s Autism Omnibus Proceedings, according to The Huffington Post. And in the end, the federal government agreed that Ryan’s encephalopathy had been caused by the MMR vaccine, a landmark ruling that confirms what Dr. Andrew Wakefield found more than 15 years ago when studying gut disorders in children given the MMR vaccine.
“Ryan suffered a Table injury under the Vaccine Act — namely, an encephalitis within five to fifteen days following receipt (of MMR),” admitted the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regarding the case. “This case is appropriate for compensation,” it added, in full agreement with the court’s decision.
Of particular note in the case is the fact that concession documents by the government remain under seal. While the court and the government at large openly admitted that the MMR vaccine caused Ryan’s encephalitis, it did not make public its opinion on whether or not that encephalitis led to Ryan’s other injuries, including those that fall into the category of ASD. But the fact that these documents remain censored shows that the government is hiding something of importance from the public, which most definitely has to do with the connection between the MMR vaccine and autism.
Concerned parents everywhere were right all along: MMR vaccine can cause autism
In a similar case heard during the same month, young Emily Moller from Houston, Texas, was also awarded massive compensation for injuries resulting from the MMR vaccine. According to reports, Emily experienced a severe reaction after receiving not only the MMR vaccine but also the DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis), HiB, and Prevnar vaccines. Like with Ryan’s case, the government conceded that these vaccines led to Emily’s autism and other developmental problems.
These two cases, combined with numerous published studies out of the U.S., South America, and Europe, prove that the MMR vaccine is not the harmless vaccine that the conventional medical industry claims it is. In fact, everything that Dr. Wakefield found back in the late 1990s concerning the MMR vaccine — findings that cost him his career and reputation, by the way — are proving to be undeniably true.
“There can be very little doubt that vaccines can and do cause autism,” Dr. Wakefield recently stated from his home in Austin, Texas. “In these children, the evidence for an adverse reaction involving brain injury following the MMR that progresses to an autism diagnosis is compelling. It’s now a question of the body count. The parents’ story was right all along. Governments must stop playing with words while children continue to be damaged. My hope is that recognition of the intestinal disease in these children will lead to the relief of their suffering. This is long, long overdue.”
The Scientific Method: To paraphrase a doctors analysis: The sad fact is before we can regain trust in the Industries “scientific method” they must be forthcoming with ALL the data. Every clinical trial should be registered before it starts, and all results and raw data should be provided at the conclusion. At present they are not , and as a result industry sponsored studies have a 400% increase in positive outcomes vs. independent studies. On top of that the negative outcomes are never published.
Good point Leo, open and above board is the motto, if the “scientific method” is to be objective then TRUTH must be the fundamental bottom line, not manipulated (or hidden) statistics to augment some drug companies bottom line profits, at the expense of the poorly informed consumer. If every potential side-effect of every drug was fully explained to every potential consumer, sales would drop like a stone.
Not sure how it happened, but this information indeed bears repeating. These hidden and buried FACTS should be shouted from the housetops and make headlines in every newspaper in the country. But no worries, a few children can certainly be sacrificed on the altar of scientific advancement, as long as it is not YOUR children or grandchildren.
Incidentally my paralysis, (fortunately temporary) but I still have after effects, was caused by the DTP vaccine. Vaccination in my books is a fraudulent money making racket, and any attempts to enforce it should be met with class action lawsuits by anyone affected by it.
Obviously you were affected! Start a lawsuit. I’d be more than interested in any results — or lack thereof. Big Talker! Let’s see how all your so called evidence goes down in a court of law! You have the opportunity to save countless children from the evil medical community, and yet you sit there. You say you were affected by a vaccine. You say people should shout to the housetops. Stop talking and start a class action lawsuit for the multitude (like you) who have been affected by the plague of vaccinations.
Did you not read the previous submissions Brad, the government has passed legislation protecting the drug companies from liability because they KNOW they are deadly poisons, besides 65 years later the chance of proving anything in court would itself preclude any possibility of justice, but Robert has shown that the evidence justifying CAUTION is out there if people really want to learn the truth. Leo (57) makes a reasonable case for transparency and full acknowledgement of the inherent RISKS so that parents/individuals can make an informed decision.
I’m confused. If you can’t sue, then what was post 56 about? You guys are all about half truths and denial.
