Have you been vaxxed?
Vaxxed is a new film about vaccinations, only released in the US so far. Most of us have been vaccinated many times, with babies and small children getting more each year. Most of us believe vaccinations are good, without stopping to wonder what is in them and what they actually do to us. Many of them contain aluminium or mercury in amounts that far exceed safe doses. Both those metals are known neurotoxins. There are serious questions to be asked about vaccinations, but these questions are being sidelined by the media.The media are treating Andrew Wakefield and his research on the MMR vaccine and autism in the same way as they are treating homeopathy. Both are persecuted in public by prejudice and sold out science (see the Sold Out Science page on this site).
You may have read about the controversy concerning the film Vaxxed, and the pressure put on Robert de Niro, who has an autistic son, so that he withdrew the film from his recent film festival. The film is directed by Andrew Wakefield who was wrongly discredited in the UK and went to the USA to continue his work. Dr William Thomson, a whistleblower from The Centre For Disease Control there has revealed that scientific data was falsified to conceal a link between MMR and autism.
It is alarming that genuine scientific exploration of the benefits of homeopathy and the dangers of vaccines is being suppressed and that the truth is being hidden by pharmaceutical companies and government agencies. For sinister reasons, they do not want us to know the truth. Biassed judgements of unorthodox ideas are commonplace and false statements are made in the name of science.
And its is surprising how the media react. The Guardian, usually open-minded and independent, is consistently against homeopathy and against Andrew Wakefield. The Daily Mail, a notoriously prejudiced and small-minded newspaper occasionally comes out pro-homeopathy. (The Independent, no longer in existence, once headlined with an independent view on Andrew Wakefield and MMR.) Every news outlet has its own angle. We need to be aware as we watch TV and read newspapers that the media have their blind spots and prejudices and tend to pass them on.
