Guest guest Posted February 26, 1999 Report Share Posted February 26, 1999 ============ Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 15:16:33 -0800 Subject: Straight Talk on Anthrax from Top Doc By J. Gillert American Forces Press Service WASHINGTON -- A video interview of Dr. Sue , Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, has been added to the DoD anthrax information site on the World Wide Web. During the Armed Forces Radio and Television News Center " 2- Minute Report " broadcast, talks about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccinations. She discusses false reports that some service members had received contaminated injections. The report can be viewed and heard using Real Video software, which can be downloaded to government computers free of charge. A more detailed print version of the interview also is available. goes on to discuss the importance of the shots in protecting service members against weaponized anthrax, which is nearly 100 percent fatal if you're unprotected. She said the vaccines work best when used with other protective measures, such as chemical protection clothing and gas masks. Both the video and news release can be found under " What's New " on the <A HREF= " http://www.defenselink.mil/specials/Anthrax/ " > " Countering the Anthrax Threat " </A> Web site. The site also contains a detailed, informative history of anthrax, including a section called " Fact vs. Myth " that addresses common misconceptions about the disease, the vaccine and the immunization program. Defense Secretary S. Cohen directed the DoD-wide immunization program in late 1997. Before units began receiving the shots last summer, the Army, as executive agent, set up a vaccination tracking system to ensure compliance. Cohen also appointed Dr. Gerald Burrow of Yale University to review and assess the plan before implementation. Service members and some mission-essential civilians assigned to the Persian Gulf region began receiving the six-shot series in summer 1998. Those in or headed to South Korea began the 18- month series in September. Cohen said it will take DoD seven years to inoculate the total force of some 2.4 million active duty and reserve members. ##END## Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 26, 1999 Report Share Posted February 26, 1999 Well, I did the one, so why not the other: ============ Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 15:16:33 -0800 Subject: Straight Talk on Anthrax from Top Doc By J. Gillert American Forces Press Service WASHINGTON -- A video interview of Dr. Sue , Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, has been added to the DoD anthrax information site on the World Wide Web. During the Armed Forces Radio and Television News Center " 2- Minute Report " broadcast, talks about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccinations. She discusses false reports - So does that mean the FDA reports are false?? that some service members had received contaminated injections. The report can be viewed and heard using Real Video software, which can be downloaded to government computers free of charge. - Can they be downloaded on personal computers I assume, or just government computers?? A more detailed print version of the interview also is available. goes on to discuss the importance of the shots in protecting service members against weaponized anthrax, which is nearly 100 percent fatal if you're unprotected. - But like I said before, I'd opt for a quick death before I'd opt for a slow agonizing painful death She said the vaccines work best when used with other protective measures, such as chemical protection clothing and gas masks. - Once again forgetting about the antibiotics. Both the video and news release can be found under " What's New " on the <A HREF= " http://www.defenselink.mil/specials/Anthrax/ " > " Countering theAnthrax Threat " </A> Web site. The site also contains a detailed, informative history of anthrax, including a section called " Fact vs. Myth " - Didn't Meryl already prove where the governments facts were really myths?? that addresses common misconceptions about the disease, the vaccine and the immunization program. Defense Secretary S. Cohen directed the DoD-wide immunization program in late 1997. Before units began receiving the shots last summer, the Army, as executive agent, set up a vaccination tracking system to ensure compliance. Cohen also appointed Dr. Gerald Burrow of Yale University to review and assess the plan before implementation. - But in order for the tracking system to work, everybody has got to do their part correctly, but we have also seen that not to be true, my buddy just got the shots, and they didn't record the batch number. Service members and some mission-essential civilians assigned to the Persian Gulf region began receiving the six-shot series in summer 1998. Those in or headed to South Korea began the 18- month series in September. Cohen said it will take DoD seven years to inoculate the total force of some 2.4 million active duty and reserve members. - Seven years???? But I thought we were in imminent danger of a terrorist or hostile country's attack??? ##END## Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, MY reasoning in searching for more answers than I can getting with our current doctors....The mentality around here is "Well, such and such doctors TOLD you....."

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 ia, I have the SAME problem with my inlaws! They think I should just listen to the Dr.'s and do what the Dr.'s say. If I did that would still be sleeping in his car seat and we would still be sitting around watching his curve progress. 6 months and 5 Dr.'s later will be in a cast on March 11.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 I know Christa, the day I told my mom that I was taking Mia in for a well baby visit and shot, but that I was going to mention her kind of tipping her toe a bit as she was learning to walk, I was told that I shouldn't as I was severly pidgeon toed as a baby and I did'nt want to put her through the bracing I had to wear... Had I not asked they would have not found the vertebrae, syrinx etc etc....ia ia O'Kelley ~ Wife to Neal ~ Mommy to Mackenzie 7, Madison 5, Noah 3, Mia 1 ~ Child of God ~ Friend to many!

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 I'm looking forward to reading his report - do you suppose the oxytocin level goes down when ssri and/or cbt/erp treatment succeeds in taming the ocd?? And (here's something for our researcher members)what do we already know about manipulating this chemical? Foods that increase or decrease it? . . . exercise? . . . cyclical hormonal levels? . . .

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Hi I don't really know whether Dr Easton actually DOES follow the BTA protocol or even think like the BTA - but he does obviously look to them for guidance. I couldn't find any contact details for him, but have sent the two responses about Armour and T4/T3 combination therapy to somebody who will, hopefully, pass them on to Dr Easton. If you have contact details, let me know and I will send them to him direct. We need to get this information out far and wide.
