The Law that Makes Taxpayers Liable for All Vaccine Injuries

1986: The Act

Directed by Dr Andy Wakefield (2020)

Film Review

1986: The Act, Dr Andy Wakefield’s* sequel to Vaxxed was just released last week. The price to rent the 2 1/2 hour film is steep – $US12.99. Some may want to wait until the price comes down. People can rent the film at https://7thchakrafilms.com/home-page

This documentary, simply, is a history of the 1986 US National Vaccine Injury Act. This legislation guarantees pharmaceutical companies totally immunity from liability for adverse reactions to vaccines by transferring the liability to US taxpayers. It also creates a special vaccine court to decide on the merit of the hundreds of disabled children who file claims every year. President Reagan (a strong opponent of big government) threatened to veto the bill. However he caved in and signed the law when Wyeth threatened to withdraw the Pertussis vaccine from the DPT (trivalent diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus vaccine).

The history of vaccine injury in the US is long, complicated and politically corrupt. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised to learn the CIA was directly involved in suppressing public information about adverse vaccine side effects owing to some bizarre Cold War competition with the Soviets over vaccine supremacy (???).

It was largely due to CIA interference that 63 million Americans were injected with the cancer-causing SV40 between 1955-63 and thousands of children suffered from acute encephalopathy following inoculation with the cellular pertussis vaccine.** Available in other countries in 1981, the acellular pertussis vaccine wouldn’t be mandated for use in US infants until 1996. CIA interference is also implicated in the failure of the FDA to shut down polio vaccine production at Cutter Laboratories in 1954, after an NIH researcher discovered their vaccine contained live (as opposed to inactivated polio vaccine). Eventually 40,000 children would develop polio from the Cutter vaccine, 164 would experience paralysis and 10 would die.

1986 wasn’t the first year the US government assumed liability for vaccine injuries. In 1976 a swine flu vaccine was rushed to market with inadequate testing after four soldiers contracted swine flu at Fort Dix. When the insurance industry refused to issue liability insurance, the federal government assumed liability. In this case, 200 people caught swine flu with one death. In contrast the the vaccine caused 58 deaths, 532 cases of paralysis, and thousands of lawsuits against the US government.

The 1986 law provides that claims must be filed within three years of learning of the vaccine injury (especially onerous given most parents have never heard of the vaccine court). Hearings are closed to the public, have no discovery process and are run by a special master (as opposed to a judge). The Act initially included a table of recognized injuries (developed by the CDC) which were automatically compensated. In the beginning,  regressive encepalopathy (in which seizures and autism are often a major outcome) was an on table condition, which meant 95% of autism/seizure cases received compensation.

After the incidence of autism began to skyrocket in the early 1990s, Clinton’s Secretary of Health and Human Services removed regressive encephalopathy and many other common vaccine injuries from the CDC table. This, in turn, forced parents to prove a direct link between the vaccine and their child’s disability, which is extremely difficult as most of the research is suppressed.

The most serious downstream effect of the total immunity 1986 Act granted pharmaceutical companies is the removal of any incentive on their part to study (and guarantee) the long term safety of their vaccines.

*The mainstream media continues to crucify Wakefield for his supposedly fraudulent 1998 Lancet paper. This article probably gives the best legal synopsis of the fraudulent case Big Pharma’s concocted against him (https://www.ageofautism.com/2020/03/why-we-cannot-believe-brian-deer-about-andrew-wakefield.html).

**In 1976, the FDA commissioned a study (which was suppressed) revealing that 1 in 300 children receiving cellular pertussis vaccine developed generalized seizures, and 1 in 214 developed other serious neurological reactions.

 

Vitamin C

Vitamin C Basics

Dr Suzanne Humphries (2015)

 

Another excellent presentation by board certified nephrologist Suzanne Humphries – this time on the therapeutic use of vitamin C to prevent and cure illness. Her entire talk is based on peer reviewed studies that all doctors should be aware of (but for the most part, aren’t).

As one of nature’s most potent antioxidants, Vitamin C plays a vital role in restoring physiological balance when the body is under “oxidative stress.”** It’s also essential to maintaining the integrity of collagen (tendons and ligaments), blood vessels and mitochondria.***

Most mammals (human and other primates and guinea pigs are an exception) produce their own vitamin C. According to careful animal and human studies, the daily vitamin C dose should be 1500mg for healthy adults and 2000mg for people over 65.*

Vitamin C is used up quickly as it reverses the biochemical effects of oxidative stress, which is why people need to take much higher doses with illness, injury or psychological stress. They need higher doses still in infections that produce endotoxin, such as pertussis (whooping cough) and inflammatory bowel conditions. Smokers need to take an extra 25 mg vitamin C for every cigarette they smoke.

Studies show this vitamin is extremely helpful in controlling diabetes and all aspects of heart disease. Because it acts directly to reduce histamine levels, it tends to be more effective than antihistamine in treating allergic reactions. It’s also more effective than antibiotics in treating pertussis, tetanus and sepsis (blood poisoning). New Zealand doctors have been treating whooping cough with vitamin C for over 30 years.

It’s also effective in treating polio, snake bites, spider bites, burns, surgical trauma, and exposure to radiation, toxic chemicals, alcohol, and pharmaceuticals.

*Continuing to ignore all these studies (under heavy Big Pharma influence), the medical establishment continues to recommend 75mg daily in females and 90mg daily in males.

**Oxydative stress is an imbalance between reactive oxygen and the body’s ability to detoxify reactive intermediates or repair the resulting damage.

***Mitochondria are tiny organelles found in every cell that are responsible for cell respiration and energy production.

How Pertussis Vaccine Spreads Whooping Cough

In this excerpt of Dr Suzanne Humphries’ testimony to the West Virginia Education Committee, she discusses the failure of western doctors to diagnose whooping cough (which is far more prevalent than public authorities admits). She also explains the failure of the pertussis vaccine to activate cell-mediated immunity (explained in more detail in her presentation on herd immunity – see Vaccines: The Myth of Herd Immunity). This relates to two potentially dangerous outcomes a) a high incidence of vaccinated patients going on to develop whooping cough and b) a high incidence of vaccinated patients becoming pertussis carriers owing to viral shedding caused by the vaccine.
