the rotary club could be part of the problem:

About 12 years ago, at the initiation of a single Rotary Club, Rotary

International declared eradication of polio by 2001 a goal. Rotarians have since

then raised over $400,000,000 and, with the World Health Organization and Center

for Disease Control, are close to achieving the goal.

,

My humble opinion....in West Africa, the Rotary ARE the problem.

My father was born in Nsawam, Ghana. We grew up in Kumasi. My father

was Rotary president and my mother was involved in the Inner Wheel.

We all were weaned to Rotaract. Been there. The majority of the

charity work is in healthcare. I spent my childhood in orphanages and

hospitals and village hospices (a patch under the furthest mango

tree, usually)..

The person I am approaching is actually my cousin. He lives in Kano,

is a prominent citizen and is a Rotarian and a Freemason (and no, I

don't like him...)

I just think it would be wonderful if I could (with my 27 page WHO

vaccination booklet in hand) convince him that all is not what it

appears to be. He is really into conspiracy theories so all I am

doing is presenting him with anomalies such as the WHO documentation

below.. hopefully with some official press release about the IPV from

OPV switch in the US in the late 90's.

If he is convinced, he will make waves. And Kano is not Lagos nor

Abuja. It is a smaller community where he has a little bit of

influence.

Perhaps nothing will come of it, but so long as I have his attention,

I want to use it. I would be tickled pink if Kano did a Leicester.

We have new members so I wanted to repost this. I know this is hard to

do, but don't believe much of what you read in the U.S. papers - they

are either lies or warped versions of the truth. Here is one example

of " polio " running rampant in another country....

http://tinyurl.com/48gxv6

I actually have 3 ring binders (already on my 2nd one) to hold all of

this info - complete with section dividers too! In the event that

these stories " disappear " from the internet, I can always refer to my

hard copy for reference. I recommend that everyone start their own in

the event that websites start getting hacked/taken down.

Just remember to disregard the part of about " low immunization rates to

blame " . The moral of the story is that vaccines cause outbreaks

period!!

This news bit is from India.

http://www.ndtv.com/convergence/ndtv/story.aspx?id=NEWEN20080046361 & ch=4/9/2008%\

202:09:00%20PM

Another very important article can be found here

http://www.tehelka.com/story_main33.asp?filename=Ne280707untested_vaccine.asp

Small excerpt from this link

" When the MOPVI was launched in India in mid-2005, there was no

mention that it was a new vaccine, and therefore no need was felt to

examine whether it had been tested. The impression created at the time

was that this vaccine had earlier been used in the 60s and 70s in some

other countries. The project manager of the NPSP, Dr Hamid Jafari,

confirmed this while talking to Tehelka.

In contrast to this position, the April 21, 2007, issue of the

renowned medical journal, Lancet, carried a study titled " Protective

efficacy of a monovalent oral Type 1 poliovirus vaccine: a

case-control study by Grassly NC, Wenger J, Durrani S, Bahl S,

Deshpande JM, Sutter RW, Heymann DL and Aylward RB " . On pages

1356-1362 it says: " A high-potency monovalent oral type 1 poliovirus

vaccine (mopv-i) was developed in 2005 to tackle persistent poliovirus

transmission in the last remaining infected countries. Our aim was to

assess the efficacy of this vaccine in India. "

So that means the two times my DD got OPV just days after she was born

was most probably with the new MOPVI! Fantastic! Feel like kicking

myself so hard! How could I have been so naive and foolish??

This article makes it cound like vaxing is the ONLY Way to help these

kids. Why do they not address the fact that the vaxes are CAUSING

paralysis?? And if vaxing is the only way- then is the only way to

paralize the country? The Muslims are right- oh we won't give them

AIDS, but we'll make sure most of the coming generation can't walk.

This is a wierd article to me.
