David Kirby's Evidence of Harm website
-----Original Message----- Dear Friends During my two years of research on Evidence of Harm, I could not have completed my work without the incredibly exhaustive online news source and archive Vaccination News (www.vaccinationnews.org) Sandy Gottstein, who runs the list, has been very helpful to me personally, and has maintained the site with her own time and resources. I urge everyone involved in this debate – from all sides – to utilize the resources that Sandy has gathered here. I understand that Sandy may not be able to keep up the list. I for one am pledging a modest contribution to Vaccination News, and I hope that others on this list will consider doing the same. Many thanks and best of luck to everyone.

"A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C.

- H1N1
Vaccine Acceptability and Correlates of Vaccine Refusal Among
Physicians in the Emory Residency Training Programs - Fifth
Decennial International Conference on Healthcare-Associated Infections
(abstract) - "The results suggest H1N1 vaccination coverage may be
increased by making vaccination mandatory or by focusing on vaccine
safety messages that address the perceived risk of active influenza
infection."

- Taking
the Final Step: Implementation of a Mandatory Flu Shot Program Within a
Healthcare System - Fifth Decennial International Conference
on Healthcare-Associated Infections (abstract) - "Exemption from
vaccination was allowed for egg allergy, history of either
Guillian-Barré or a post-flu shot anaphylaxis. A formal
exemption process began as a written appeal to an internal review board
which determined exemption. For the non-exempt, the choice to not be
vaccinated resulted in termination. Rehire is conditional, based on the
intent to comply with influenza vaccination in the future. ...Over
99.99% of approximately 3800 employees received a seasonal flu shot. No
serious side effects occurred among those receiving vaccine. Of those
employees who applied for exemption but were denied, 4 chose to
terminate employement; however, one of these, a physician, chose
retirement rather than immunization. Consequences for unvaccinated,
non-employees were not explored this initial year."

- Autism,
Vaccines, Thimerosal: Further Study Needed - Age of Autism -
"No study has looked at the possible effect of the synergistic toxicity
of aluminum and thimerosal, which are never supposed to be used in
combination (according to the Manufacturer Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
for thimerosal ) and are indeed combined in many shots (according to
the Vaccine Excipient Summary from the
CDC). And no controlled study, not one, exists on the effect of
low dose ethyl mercury toxicity in humans (a statement made by study
author Anders Hviid himself below on p.1765)."
