mentaladd 210x131 Government Holds Back on Testing Deadly Anthrax Vaccine on ChildrenAfter the media erupted with backlash regarding the recent government decision to test the death-linked anthrax vaccine on children, government officials have decided to hold back the ruling — for now. The advisory board announced Friday that ‘ethical’ issues need to be resolved before moving forward with the tests. However, the officials continue to push the idea of utilizing the tests to prevent the threat of bioterrorism in the form of anthrax attacks. While calling off the trials for moral and health reasons, the advisory panel immediately followed up the statement with the desire to “learn the proper dose in case it’s needed in a terrorist attack.” When will they determine this proper dosage?

According to the The National Biodefense Science Board, the the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) will develop a plan for the anthrax vaccine study as soon as a ‘separate review board’ successfully reviews the ethical issues regarding the tests. The board even has fears as to whether or not any parents would subject their children to receiving the experimental shot.

Advisory panel warns of bioterrorism, stays silent about anthrax vaccine death link

Of course the panel is not warning parents and consumers about the link between the anthrax vaccine and death, or even the fact that former Senate Majority Leader and physician Bill Frist spoke out against the shot despite being at risk for anthrax attacks.

In 2001 when letters containing anthrax were mailed to several congressional leaders, Frist stated:

“There are very real and potentially serious side effects from the vaccine and anyone who elects to receive the vaccine needs to be made aware of that. I do not recommend widespread inoculation. There are too many side effects and if there is limited chance of exposure- the side effects would far outweigh any potential advantage.”

They also fail to mention the 2007 CDC report that found “between 1 and 2 percent” of military personnel injected with the anthrax vaccine experienced ”severe adverse events, which could result in disability or death.” What is even more concerning is the fact that doctors are worried about how the immune system of a child will respond to the experimental anthrax vaccine.

The documented dangers of the anthrax vaccine do not end there. Between 2001 and 2004, the FDA Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) received 4,136 spontaneous adverse event reports: 347 (8.4%) were reported as serious.

Serious adverse events include: death, hospitalization, permanent disability, or are life-threatening. There were 16 deaths.

It seems apparent that the advisory panel should not allow for innocent children to be vaccinated with the anthrax vaccine that has already been found to lead to death and paralyzing reactions. It is also important to note that these were the effects examined in adults. Doctors theorize that the effects in children could be much more unpredictable.
