UK COMPULSORY VACCINE IMMINENT

UK Health Minister Dawn Primarolo signed the new law
Contrary to assurances given by the UK Government to leading politicians, fears earlier this year that the Government is moving to make the vaccination schedule compulsory for British citizens [including children] without reference to Parliament, and without public debate seem to be being borne out.

New law introduced by the backdoor in January this year obliges the Secretary of State for Health to implement any recommendations of the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation: [Government Hands Drug Industry Control of Vaccination].


Under the new law, the JCVI is now asking [full quote below]:-


what exactly ‘right’ meant [under the new NHS constitution] with respect to the right of a child to receive a vaccine when their parents were opposed to vaccination and

how the constitution affected the recommendations of the JCVI with respect to legal challenge.’“
In other words, if a parent does not want a child vaccinated but the JCVI have recommended all children be vaccinated, the JCVI are asking can their recommendation be challenged by the parent. It would seem once they have their answer, they will decide whether or not to make their recommendation. This appears one step from compulsory vaccination for children regardless of parental views or concerns.

If the JCVI decide to make their recommendation, and a legal case ensues this might mean a Guardian is appointed by the State to represent the interests of the child and through the Guardian sue its own parents to insist on the “right” to be vaccinated as mandated by the JCVI. The parents would in effect be forced to defend the case against their own child brought through the Guardian to oppose their own child being vaccinated. Once the first case was decided, the matter would be settled in practical terms for all UK parents.



Thus the UK appears to be on the verge of ‘1984′ style legislation and guidelines in which freedoms are taken away from citizens framed in terms of rights granted. And this has happened without political or public debate, scrutiny or democratic vote.

The newly published draft minutes for the JCVI in February disclose that the new status granted it by Health Minister Dawn Primarolo by executive order in January seem designed to tie up with unmentioned provisions in the new National Health Service Constitution.


According to the JCVI minutes the new NHS constitution states:

‘You have the right to receive the vaccinations that the Joint Committee on Vaccinations and Immunisation recommend that you should receive under an NHS provided national immunisation programme.’

And:

‘You should participate in important public health programmes such as vaccination.’

The minutes state:

‘The JCVI was pleased the recommendations of the committee would have the force of law behind it. The committee asked for clarification on the constitution including what exactly ‘right’ meant with respect to the right of a child to receive a vaccine when their parents were opposed to vaccination and how the constitution affected the recommendations of the JCVI with respect to legal challenge.’

Irrespective of any claimed benefits of a vaccine programme the constitutional implications of this change are concerning.

The JCVI is by law now a law unto itself and flexing its muscles despite a history of disregard for safety issues over the past 20 years and more.

It is unclear what ultimate responsibility the JCVI bears for its actions, or if any sanctions apply to it. The criterion for recommendations by the JCVI is purely on “cost-effectiveness” not safety - a re-statement of the committee’s defective historical remit. JCVI members have financial and professional associations with vaccine manufacturers. No action has been taken to curb this.

Any ordinary concept of legality appears subverted, and power ceded to industry insiders.

This has taken place without democratic reference: compulsory vaccination is not part of any party’s policy and it has never been debated in Parliament.

If this is going to happen at all there should be extensive consultations, safeguards, debate and a vote. Everyone concerned about this matter should urgently contact their MP, whose address can be found here http://tinyurl.com/ljxtgv .


The Problem With Compulsory Vaccination
The main concern with compulsory vaccination is that we are already causing more serious health problem than the ones we are supposed to be addressing. For example:-
though well-known in the drug industry vaccines cause allergy the House of Lords Select Committee Report on Allergy contains no reference to this;
UK asthma is bigger now than all childhood infectious disease would be without vaccines [statistics below];
The answer of Baroness Finlay who chaired the Lord’s committee is in summary – “we consulted widely and no one told us“.

Adjuvants are an ingredient in all vaccines and cause allergy. US biotech company BioSante’s CEO, Steve Simes said on the launch of their new adjuvant:-

“The problem with most adjuvants is that they can cause allergies,” said Simes. “Ours might not be as potent as others, but it is safer.”


BioSante: Promise for bird-flu drug

The drug industry has created a quasi-religious belief in the importance of vaccines such that criticism is not permitted.

Asthma statistics:-


1 death every seven hours
1400 deaths pa
21 every year are children
500 are adults under 65
5.2 million UK people affected
4.1 million adults
1.1 million children
1 hospital admission every 7.5 minutes
tens of thousands are debilitated by serious asthma
12.7 million working days a year are lost due to asthma -
this is a triple whammy – we lose three times over – in productivity, increased burden of welfare benefits and oncost in NHS services
asthma costs the NHS £889 million every year
[source Asthma UK - 2004]

Asthma is not the only example of the problem nor are adjuvants the only cause of allergy in vaccines.

The overarching issue is public and child health safety on a rational scientific and medical expert analysis and no other kind. Instead we see label-libel of critics as “anti-vaccine” [but see "There Is No “Anti-Vaccine” Movement"].

And why is this happening. The drug industry has been changing its business models from one the financial markets have long known was failing – “blockbuster” patented drugs – to others including one which made Bill Gates billions – pretty much everyone must have Microsoft’s Windows software on their computer and everyone must be vax’ed. The financial lure for the drug industry is the biggest it has ever had.

France Plans Compulsory ‘Flu Vaccination

And all this is for a ‘flu pandemic which does not exist and which official disease statistics show [unlike now] occurred at a time when all disease mortality was very high and which indicate strongly will never happen again: Vaccines Did Not Save Us – 2 Centuries of Official Statistics.

W.H.O. says there is a ‘flu pandemic?

Looks like this could be another good reason to home educate.

Call to make MMR jab compulsory

Public health expert Sir Sandy Macara believes children should not be able to go to school unless they have first been vaccinated.

"Our attempts to persuade people have failed. The suggestion is that we ought to consider making a link which in effect would make it compulsory for children to be immunised if they are to receive the benefit of a free education from the state."

The BBC has learned, however, through a freedom of information request that the strategic health authority in London asked the government if it could introduce compulsory vaccinations.

Specifically the SHA asked about the "feasibility of requiring an immunisation certificate for measles before children go to school."

Just as well school isn't compulsory then.

Whether or not parents decide to vaccinate their children is up to them and should not be subject to state compulsion, as this blogger points out.
