    You did say that the diseased flesh of African Green Monkeys is being used. Care to reconsider?

    That is patently incorrect. And I can read. And I can understand too; that is where mine and your abilities depart from one another.

    Ok but what about greece, you seem to have by-passed that.

    if there is so many facts supporting what you say, why is it that it's only crazies that are so concerned? while governments and health officials are ordering millions of doses?

    Don't you get it?
    The people who hang around online talking about conspiracy theories and how evil modern medicine is are the only sane people left!
    It is the rest of us, with our fancy education, that are the truly insane.

    ATHENS (Reuters) - Greece will vaccinate its entire population of 12 million against the H1N1 swine flu pandemic which has swept around the world in weeks, killing hundreds of people, the country's health minister said on Friday.

    drkpower, what part of Greece WILL vaccinate it's ENTIRE POPULATION of 12 million do you not understand?
    now to show you for the ignoramus you are. Maybe you cant read or are just slow, look below, see the red highlighted writing, does this in your little mind read "would you like some swine flu vaccine?, you can have some if you like" or does it make it mandatory, without using the "word" mandatory.

    "We decided that the entire population, all citizens and residents, without any exception, will be vaccinated against the flu," Health Minister Dimitris Avramopoulos said after a ministerial meeting.

    Smartasses are supposed to be smart to begin with, you failed miserably.

    Im afraid, Greece are not currently planning to force its citizens to undergo forced vaccination.

    All you have found is one isolated quote from the Greek Health Minister which states that all citizens are to be vaccinated. It is simply an out of context quote. What he meant was that there are to be no exceptions to the vaccine policy, no groups who will not be considered.

    If mandatory forced vaccination has been decided by the Greek government, show me the press release on their website stating this; show me the plans that have been formulated to detain and forcibly vaccinate Greek citizens. Show me any article that refers to mandatory or forced vaccination. If this has been actuallly decided, as you say, that should be very very easy to find.

    An isolated out-of-context quote wont do it. It might do it over in crazyville (CT), but not when you are discussing issues with sane people.

    Can I take it from that that you are withdrawing your assertion that the diseased flesh of monkeys are being used in vaccines?

    See below re Greece.

    Prevention: Is the swine flu jab safe?


    A warning that the new swine flu jab is linked to a deadly nerve disease has been sent by the Government to senior neurologists in a confidential letter.
    The letter from the Health Protection Agency, the official body that oversees public health, has been leaked to The Mail on Sunday, leading to demands to know why the information has not been given to the public before the vaccination of millions of people, including children, begins.

    uprising, it may seem like people are being a bit harsh but you seem like one of those wacko losers conspiracy theorists who use faulty logic and ignore evidence to make the things fit their messed up views just so they can feel less like losers, that's fine usually, but here you have the potential to cause serious harm by putting off easily persuaded people from getting the vaccine. stick to your 911 theories or something.

    You my friend are not capable of reading, I'll highlight

    (i) producing said virus using a cell line isolated from the kidney of an African Green Monkey, which cell line is substantially free of viable adventitious microbial agents and is able to support the growth of rotaviruses, astroviruses, enteroviruses, polioviruses, respiratory viruses, and hepatitis A viruses,

    Which of these viruses would you like in your tea?

    Just because you use bold and red doesn't make your points any more valid. Kind of makes you look crazy.


    Anyway cell lines are used quite regularly even in Ireland, for the production of pharmaceuticals. The cell lines (Master cell banks and working cell banks) are derived from many different organisms (plants, fungi, mammals and of course bacteria) and of course are subject to adventitious organisms. At each stage of the production there is vigorous testing for such organisms and if the process is compromised the batch is abandoned. Such a compromise can cost a company millions or even billions of dollars and are therefore strenuously avoided. The checks and balances are beyond anal but this is completely necessary to avoid danger to patients and avoid loss of revenue.


    It's the quacks who'll sell you a placebo, claim it's better than scientifically proven medication and charge you a fortune that are the people trying to keep you misinformed.

    Homeopathy, crystal healing, most of the herbal stuff, it's all 100% bull****. The sooner people realise it the better.

    Over dosing on medicine is lowering our natural immune system. Like the normal flu jab it should be reserved for the elderly and those with poor immune systems.

    This makes absolutely no sense.

    Plenty of younger immuno competent people get the annual flu jab.

    Saying a vaccination lowers the immune system is a contradiction in terms. A vaccination triggers an immune response, creating anti-bodies capable of fighting a specific virus. It boost the immune system, anyone saying it does the opposite is clueless!

    Haven't the manufacturers of the vaccine been granted legal immunity should anything go wrong with it?

    Not a great selling point imo :D

    Well I've read through what I could read through before my head start hurting and all I see here is more fodder for the conspiracy theorists so we'll be leaving it at that.
