The Lancet retraction of vaccine autism paper condemned as Big Pharma conspiracy to discredit Dr. Wakefield

(NaturalNews) When I saw The Lancet's recent retraction of Dr. Wakefield's famous paper linking vaccines to autism, I couldn't help thinking back to 1989 when Fleischmann and Pons were widely attacked and discredit over their demonstration of cold fusion technology. These two brilliant physicists had accomplished the seemingly impossible: They had caused fusion to take place at low temperatures, producing both excess heat energy as well as the helium artifacts proving that low-energy nuclear reactions had taken place.

The conventional physics community went berserk. They attacked Fleischmann and Pons relentlessly, attempting to destroy their character and any scientific credibility they might have held. They paraded a gang of "hot fusion" scientists through the mainstream media, telling everyone it was "impossible" to create nuclear fusion at tabletop temperatures. Through a repetition of lies, they convinced the world that Fleischmann and Pons were frauds.

Hot fusion, you see, is big business. Big money. Billions of dollars have been thrown at hot fusion, and the careers and livelihoods of tens of thousands of people depend on it. By demonstrating that cold fusion really worked, Fleischmann and Pons were threatening an entire industry. That industry had no choice but to do everything possible to destroy the scientists. Truth be damned... this was all about politics and profits!

Fast forward 20 years and guess what? Cold fusion is being replicated in laboratories all around the world. Even the U.S. Navy is now deeply engaged in the research (https://www.naturalnews.com/025925_cold_fusio...), and it is recreating cold fusion experiments on a routine basis.

Cold fusion, it turns out, is indeed quite real. Fleischmann and Pons were right. The conventional scientific community was wrong. And yet they got away with destroying the reputations of these scientists because the media bought their lies hook, line and sinker. To this day, supposed "intelligent" scientists and doctors still stupidly believe that cold fusion was a hoax.

Big Pharma destroys Dr. Wakefield

Today, the same tactics of disinformation and truth destruction are now being leveled against Dr. Wakefield, the courageous scientist who was the first to prove that vaccines were linked to autism. For the last twelve years, his research provided ammunition for opponents of mandatory vaccinations -- people who were concerned about the safety of injecting synthetic chemicals and methyl mercury into the bodies of infants.

The truth was getting out and vaccine skeptics were winning the information war. The H1N1 vaccination campaign was a complete failure -- 80% of Americans rejected the recent H1N1 vaccine, for example. Drug companies needed to shut down the opposition as quickly as possible and put a lid on any resistance to mass vaccinations. The whole future of profits for Big Pharma, after all, depends on the public accepting more and more vaccines for "preventive" medicine. This means you get vaccinated for all sorts of things that you don't have and may never get. The vaccines are sold to people as a kind of chemical-based health insurance program.

To ensure the profitability of that future, Big Pharma needed to destroy Dr. Wakefield's credibility. So they paraded a long list of pro-vaccine doctors and drug pushers in front of the media to accomplish essentially the same thing that was accomplished against Fleischmann and Pons in 1989 -- the obliteration of their credibility in order to suppress the truth.

The truth is dangerous to Big Pharma

The truth is a dangerous thing. Especially when profits are at stake. The truth about vaccines would destroy an entire industry. That's why the truth must not be allowed to appear in newspapers, magazines or medical journals. That's why the truth is meticulously redacted from these publications and replaced by pro-pharma lies as a matter of course.

It all comes back to George Orwell's 1984 novel, where the day job of the main character Winston Smith is to literally rewrite history by replacing offensive stories in news archives with a "rewritten history" that's more acceptable to the politicians currently in charge.

The Lancet is doing exactly what George Orwell described in 1984 -- rewriting history by obliterating scientific truth and removing it from their archives.

And this is just the beginning. Watch for more medical journals to retract scientific papers that oppose the Big Pharma agenda. Any "science" that doesn't agree with the vaccine / pharmaceutical agenda will simply be purged from the archives of human knowledge, leaving only whatever fraudulent science supports Big Pharma's dark agenda.

The very credibility of modern medical science is dissolving right before our eyes. When even the medical journals themselves are deeply engaged in the censorship of scientific knowledge and the promotion of a corporate agenda, you know there's not much credibility left in the industry.

Dr. Len Horowitz sent me this important announcement today (see below). It contains some rather disturbing information about the links between Reuters, The Lancet and Big Pharma. I'm reprinting it here in its entirety because I think it's information that simply must be distributed.

Forward this article to everyone you know -- especially if you know new moms or expectant mothers who may be facing the vaccine decision soon. They need to know what's really happening behind the veil of secrecy.

And let me state without hesitation that injecting babies with chemicals is BAD for their health. Vaccines are a potential danger to human health. What people need -- even in third world countries -- is nutrition, not chemicals. If they had better nutrition and sanitation, infectious disease would largely disappear even without vaccines! (But the drug industry doesn't believe in nutrition... vitamins are a threat to their vaccine profits.)

Here's the statement from Dr. Horowitz:

Statement from Dr. Len Horowitz

The editors of Medical Veritas journal (www.MedicalVeritas.org) have condemned The Lancet's retraction (http://edition.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/02/02/lan...) of the controversial study by Dr. Andrew Wakefield, charging editor Richard Horton with pandering to special interests in a conspiracy to defraud the public about the risks of vaccinations.

In 1998, The Lancet published the contested study linking autism and intestinal problems to the risky MMR triple virus vaccine. Yesterday, following the British General Medical Council's decision that Dr. Wakefield had been "dishonest," The Lancet's editor retracted the article saying the Council's report made it "utterly clear, without any ambiguity at all, that the statements in the paper were utterly false."

In a letter to the Los Angeles Times (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/booster_shot...), Dr. Gilbert Ross, medical director of the pro-vaccine industry American Council on Science and Health, wrote, "The retraction . . . comes far too late. Even now, Horton fails to accept responsibility for the human toll he engendered by publishing the Wakefield 'study.'. . ."

"On the contrary," wrote Dr. Leonard Horowitz, Editor-in-Chief of Medical Veritas. "Dr. Horton's delay is best explained by his aversion to self incrimination and conspiring to cover-up iatrogenocide -- the medical mass murder of innocent people for profit."

The Winter, 2010 issue of Medical Veritas evidenced gross conflicting interests undermining the The Lancet's integrity. Following the publication of Dr. Wakefield's controversial study, Reed-Elsevier-ChoicePoint mergers occurred. The mega-company formed has nearly monopolized the medical scientific publishing industry. Previous to this, The Lancet editors protested the "damaging" of medicine and health science by pharmaceutical companies.

"Now it is obvious Dr. Horton's company has been grossly contaminated by special interests as biased as Dr. Ross's 'PharmaCouncil'," Dr. Horowitz said.

Reed-Elsevier-ChoicePoint, it turns out, is directed by Chief Executive Officer, Sir Crispin Davis, according to a Reuter's News Service promotion for GlaxoSmithKline recently published (http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/office...). According to Forbes, Sir Davis was knighted by the Queen of England for his "service to the information industry." (http://people.forbes.com/profile/crispin-dav...) He has served as a Non-Executive Independent Director of GlaxoSmithKline, PLC since 2003. Sir Davis spent his early career with Procter & Gamble.

Reuter's News Service, key to the British "information industry," is directed by Editor-in-Chief, Thomas H. Glocer, who serves on the Board of Directors of Merck & Co., which admittedly paid Reed-Elsevier to publish pseudo-scientific articles and fraudulent medical journals, including the Australasian Journal of Bone and Joint Medicine. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australasian_Jo...)

According to court records, and the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/14/business/1...), the Merck-sponsored publication for doctors in Australia came to light during litigation over Vioxx (http://naturalnews.com/vioxx.html) -- a pain medication that caused, conservatively, more than 27,785 deaths according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The Lancet editor blamed the FDA (http://www.ahrp.org/infomail/04/10/12.php) for faulty oversight for the VIOXX killings, but failed to cite his own parent company's complicity in the iatrogenocide. Dr. Horton wrote, "Without more vigilant drug regulation in the future, doctors will continue to be misled and patients' lives will continue to be endangered. "

So with zero confidence in The Lancet, Dr. Horton, those paying his salary, and those criticizing him for his actions, Medical Veritas editors are inviting Dr. Wakefield to re-publish his controversial paper in their next issue.

Outright slander against medical truth

"Many of our editors have experienced slander and demeaning remarks by mainstream healthcare authorities and the media, Dr. Gary S. Goldman, the Associate Editor of Medical Veritas, wrote to Dr. Wakefield. "Your numerous peer-reviewed journal articles testify to your valuable contribution to the medical and health fields, and your stand against the opponents to scientific reason and common sense is heroic."

Medical Veritas, wherein Dr. Wakefield published a 2006 follow-up study to his 1998 report in The Lancet, is "one of the few remaining journals that places emphasis on the health interests of individuals rather than [the pursuit of] profits."

Vaccinations linked to spontaneous abortions

"The current climate of vaccine science is very controversial," said Eileen Dannemann. In recent months, the Director of the National Coalition of Organized Women (http://www.progressiveconvergence.com) collected and analyzed data of spontaneous abortions following injections of H1N1 vaccines into pregnant women.

"The information that people are given by vaccine authorities, and through the media," Dannemann insists, "is inconsistent with the safety studies conducted that lack placebo controls and long-term surveillance of adverse reactions to these vaccinations."
Contrary to the PharmaMedia's propaganda character-assassinating Dr. Wakefield, he is not the only scientist concerned about vaccinations causing deadly side effects. In recent days, a new study from The Center for Modeling Optimal Outcomes in New Jersey published, "If it hadn't been for so many parents insisting that vaccines were responsible for the condition [of autism], we might never have found the fact that the stabilizer in MMR, and a few other vaccines, is hydrolyzed gelatin -- a substance that is approximately 21% glycine. It appears that, based on readily verifiable science, the use of that form of glycine triggers an imbalance between the amino acid neurotransmitters responsible for the absorption rate of certain classes of cells throughout the body. It is that wide-spread disruption that apparently results in the systemic problems that encompass the mind and the body characterized in today's 'classic' autism."
