X-post FW: CDC Phone Call...

January 11, 2008

This is the second person who has told me that they’ve been contacted for

this interview…and both said they refused. Anyone have any more info about

what the CDC is trying to do here? BTW, the person they started the

interview with below- Rissa- is a child. Kenny is the father, who happens to

have Gulf War Syndrome.

Any further info is appreciated.

Best,

carrie

Hey ...

I thought you may be interested to know that 2 days ago, Kenny received a

letter from the CDC; notifying him that they would be calling within a few

days to conduct a phone interview to collect data on the number of children

within our household in regards to their immunizations.

I find this highly offensive and really odd. I don't trust them. I

consider this information to be confidential medical information and am

wondering why they would choose to call our family to question us on the

ages and immunization status of our children? I can't find anything on

snopes or CDC about any current survey.

So, the CDC called tonight, never asked for Kenny, and started their

" survey " with Rissa... she handed the phone off to me and I told the lady

that we would not participate in their survey. She asked why I wouldn't

" participate in this very important survey? " I told her that our family's

immunizations weren't anyones' business. She persisted. I told her again

that we would not participate and hung up...

I was really shocked... It was a strange call.

I just wanted to share that with you, and don't know if it means anything,

or if I just ended up with a rude caller.

Talk to you later,

Think they're trying to unreplicate the Generation Rescue phone survey?

I would ask for the full name and phone # of the person calling as

well as their supervisors' name and # before you refuse to

participate. I would also try to get information about the study

they want you to participate in....if the study has a name, how many

people they are calling, where they are getting the names of people

from, etc. If this is a legitimate study, all this information

should be available to potential participants and should be disclosed.

I agree. I would think people would WANT to participate because if

they are replicating the Generation Rescue survey, you are the people

who SHOULD be answering, right?

But, make sure you get information on the study, etc. and let us know.

This is really interesting.

What's MORE interesting? Where did they get your names/numbers/addresses?

Pardon my cynicism but I don't believe in the integrity or neutrality

of any agenda coming from this agency in its present state. If they

did manage to collect information damning of a pharmaceutical

product, the numbers would be massaged and the outcome expurgated.

They lie in every study having to do with vaccines and nothing's

changed in government regulation which would call a halt to this

trend.

Also, anyone who's aware of the government data-mining programs

which have been implemented in the past seven years knows that we're

in an era of unprecedented incursions on privacy. If someone answers

this poll and says they're not vaccinating for whatever reason, they

might expect their names and their children's names to end up on some

list. Anyone who overtly questions the intentions or merits of the

poll to the pollsters should definitely expect to end up on a list as

well.

People who peacefully protest the sale of llama fur end up on

terrorist watch lists. I'd say pharma has a little more pull than the

llama fur industry and I'd assume that this recent data mining effort

is an outcropping of the vaccine mandate campaign, nothing more.

Weird thing is, the household in question does not have little ones-

all junior high & high school age...
