African Children Still Paralyzed After Vaccines, Government Says “All in Their Head”

African Children Still Paralyzed After Vaccines, Government Says “All in Their Head”





African government is denying vaccines harmed children.

It has now been officially confirmed that in December 2012, 38
children were hospitalized after receiving the meningitis vaccine,
MenAfriVac, during a vaccination campaign arranged by the Chadian
government. News program France 24 stated that Saleh Ahmat
Bodoumi, a former Member of Parliament in Chad, confirmed that seven of
the most seriously affected children have since been evacuated from
hospitals in the capital city of Ndjamena to the Republic of Tunisia in
northern Africa to undergo further investigation and specialized
treatment. [1]

This news was confirmed by the ‘Medical Xpress’ a health
news service, which said Health Minister Mamouth Nahor N’Gawara made the
following statement to the Agence France-Presse, the largest French
news agency in the world (AFP):

“During the last phase of the
vaccination campaign organized at Gouro (near the Libyan border) on
December 11 to 15, 2012, unusual reactions were noted.”

N’Gawara added that “their state of health is not worrying.” [2]

FORCED VACCINATIONS


However, the Medical Xpress, along with other websites, followed this story the next day by backtracking and stating the following information:

“In a statement, the country’s health
ministry said tests “failed to establish a causal link between the
clinical manifestations observed in the patients and the MenAfriVac
vaccine.”

According to the statement, one child who never received the
meningitis shot ‘complained of suffering from the same symptoms’ found
in the other children.” [3]

However, a contact in Chad gave VacTruth an extremely different version of events. He said:

“The government and the World Health Organization have made up these facts.

The government banned journalists from visiting the hospital since the children brought in. (sic) All the children from Gouro received the vaccine.

Firstly, they (Government/WHO)
collaborated with the school’s headmaster who locked the school’s main
door before vaccinating all the children. The school headmaster told the
children that anyone who refused the vaccine would be banned from
school and be arrested.

Secondly, they went door to door and injected the babies over one year.”

If you find this event difficult to believe, then cast your mind back
to 2007 when the news broke that children in Maryland had been forcibly
vaccinated at gunpoint under orders from the state Attorney General,
various state judges and the local school board director, all of whom
illegally conspired to threaten parents with imprisonment if they did
not submit their children to vaccinations. [4]

Another example of these bully boy tactics was seen in Malawi last
year, where 131 children were vaccinated at gunpoint after their parents
had refused the measles vaccine. [5] [6]




A TRAGIC TIMELINE


Interestingly, the health minister ended his official statement by
saying that the state of the paralyzed children’s health is not
worrisome. If that is true, then why did the Chadian government move
them to another hospital and why was this move done in secret?

Our Chadian contact informed me that the parents were not even
allowed to know where the children were being evacuated to prior to
evacuation. He confirmed that on the day that the children were
evacuated, the N’Djamena International Airport had been closed to
visitors!

VacTruth reported on the Chadian tragedy on January 6, 2013. [7]
However, a team of experts in Chad did not begin to investigate the
situation fully until January 9. The Prime Minister of Chad did not
visit the sick children in hospital until a few days later. On January
13, VacTruth released a film of the TV footage of this visit that had
been copied and forwarded to us. [8]

So, why did the Chadian government take so long to act on this appalling situation? According to France 24, the Health Minister did not make his announcement until January 9, five weeks after the incident occurred.

Another false representation of the facts being portrayed to the
public is the following information which has been reported by several
websites:

“In total, more than 100 million people in ten African countries have been vaccinated against the disease.”

It is a possibility that tens of millions of people were vaccinated
with MenAfriVac, although highly unlikely. However, it is a total
impossibility, by the WHOS’s own admission, that this number was
vaccinated using the controlled temperature chain (CTC) implementations.
In November 2012, WHO stated:

“Evidence of the heat stability of
MenAfriVac® was validated by a team of experts from WHO, PATH, SIIL, and
Health Canada. In collaboration with the government of Benin, the
Meningitis Vaccine Project (MVP), Optimize, and the WHO regional office
for Africa, a pilot use of the MenAfrivac® vaccine in a CTC will be conducted during the upcoming MenAfriVac® campaign
in the northern part of the country, from November 15 through 25. Benin
is the 10th country to introduce the vaccine, as well as the first
country to work with the new CTC implementation guidelines, developed
through WHO’s Immunization Practices Advisory Committee”. [9] (emphasis added)

BREAKING THE RULES, AT LEAST TWICE


So, what has been going on behind the scenes?

MenAfriVac was a pre-licensed vaccine still in the testing stages. It
had been advertised by all the major organizations involved in the
campaign, including UNICEF, FDA, CDC, The Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation, PATH, Meningitis Vaccine Project and WHO, as a vaccine that
could be kept in a controlled temperature chain (CTC) at temperatures of
up to 40 degrees Celsius for up to four days. However, according to the
manufacturer, this information was not strictly true because they
state:

“MenAfriVac should be stored and
transported between 2-8ºC. Protect from light. The diluent should be
stored at 25°C. It is recommended to protect the reconstituted vaccine
from direct sunlight.” [10]

According to a report of a meeting which took place in October 2012
between the World Health Organization’s Immunizations, Vaccines and
Biologicals group and the Immunization Practices Advisory Committee
(IPAC), the MenAfriVac vaccine had not been fully licensed and would not
be due to be fully endorsed until 2013, at the earliest. [11]

The children of Gouro were vaccinated in December 2012, apparently
with a vaccine that was still being tested which had not yet gained
approval to be used outside of a cold temperature chain. According to
sources, Dr. Diego Buriot read this message in French on Chad TV, a local television station:

“We have done all analyses, we
believe that the vaccine was not the cause of the paralysis and the
children are not in danger. It is clear that the vaccine is not the
cause. All seems to show that the vaccine, which already has been
largely used on the whole of the chain, does not produce vaccinal
complications.

We have retested the vaccine, both at
the level of the producer, as well as at the level of random checks,
which are undecided. These will give their results within several weeks,
but actually we are sure that the vaccine is not the cause.

What we are sure of is first of all
that there is no danger whatsoever for the children, that is very
important to say. All the clinical trials that we have done are
completely normal other than this agitation, which is real, it
translates the fear of the children.” [translated from French]

This is the first public acknowledgement admitting that the children
had became ill and paralyzed after they had received the vaccination, as
well as the first of likely many denials that the vaccine is not to
blame.

So, who is Dr. Diego Buriot and who does he represent?

IT’S ALL IN THEIR HEAD


Dr. Diego Buriot is the Director of the WHO Office in Lyon, France.
He is in charge of the Department of Communicable Disease Surveillance
and Response and with impressive credentials and “considerable
experience in the public health problems of developing countries.” [12]

Of course he would say that the vaccines did not cause the children’s
injuries, even though he has admitted that all the test results have
not yet been received and won’t be for several weeks. Remember his
words?

“We have retested the vaccine, both
at the level of the producer, as well as at the level of random checks,
which are undecided. These will give their results within several weeks,
but actually we are sure that the vaccine is not the cause.”

On January 20, 2013, the human rights organization ECOTERRA
International and I wrote a letter to the resident representative of WHO
in Chad, Dr. Saïdou Pathé Barry. We have checked the WHO website [13]
regularly since submitting our inquiry, but we have not found any report
or update. For this reason, we have been forced to make a public appeal
to WHO and ask them to answer our fourteen questions regarding the
MenAfriVac vaccination tragedy at their earliest convenience.

On January 22, we were given a copy of the original press release
signed by The Minister of Public Health, Dr. Mamouth Nahor N’gawara. It
makes interesting but predictable reading:

The findings were the same old same, although the release did admit
to the inadequate hospital conditions, the lack of medical follow-up —
especially on the psychological level — and the dialogue between the
community and the health personnel as being insufficient.

No cause for the illness of the children appears to have been found. Interestingly, the Experts’ Recommendations stated:

• Make sure of a progressive yet fast return of the children to their families, and a medical follow up

• Maintain the dialogue with the families, the actors and the partners of the vaccination

• Reinforce the medical structure at
the local level by adding a doctor and a state registered nurse for a
better tracking of the health of the population and the routine
activities

• Reinforce the health personnel capacity in crisis communication and rumor control

The experts want to stress that the
analysis of the epidemiological, medical, clinical and paraclinical data
do not permit us to establish a causal link between the clinical
manifestations observed in the patients, and the MenAfriVac™ vaccine.

The symptoms observed in the patients resemble those, which have been described in the literature under several names:

• collective hysteria
• collective obsessive behavior
• mass psychogenic phenomenon

In other words, the “experts” are trying to say that the children’s
condition is psychological. This move is growing in popularity
governments and the medical profession uses the ‘its all in their heads’
phenomenon to minimize vaccine damage, thus shifting the blame to the
parents or the victim.

They finish by stating, translated from French:

“The independent experts thank the
population and the Chadian authorities for the confidence placed in
them. They appeal to the diligence of the authorities to put quickly
into action the recommendations, which will facilitate the return to a
calmed down situation, beneficial to the correct proceeding of the
vaccination programs.”

The press release also says that a final report will be completed by the health services in Tunisia.

What the press release fails to say is the following: out of the 500
children vaccinated, a total of 106 became ill. Only 38 of the sick
children were hospitalized, leaving 62 sick children in Gouro to be
cared for by relatives. [13]

HOW ARE THE CHILDREN DOING?


When I asked my contact if the conditions of the hospitalized children were improving, he replied:

“The children in hospital are still
paralyzed. Most of the children still can’t stand up. Some have
convulsions so badly that they need four people to attend. Those who
have convulsions end with their up arms straight and their eyes are
fixed and open without reaction.

We are not receiving enough information about the children the government and WHO took to Tunisia.

There are sick children left in Gouro who may be evacuated to Libya.”

CONCLUSION


We have yet to see the full outcome of the MenAfriVac vaccine
tragedy. There is little doubt that these children are very sick and may
need lifelong care and attention. They will likely be returned home, if
they recover sufficiently, without adequate care and attention and
their parents left without help or support to care for their children’s
disabilities alone. Unfortunately, many third world countries do not
have access to basic equipment such as wheelchairs that we in the
Western world take for granted.

Surely it is now time for the Chadian government and the
organizations involved to stop trying to cover up this tragedy and
instead, look after all of the sick children properly. I believe that
the real tragedy of this whole situation is in a few months, these
children like thousands of others, will be forgotten and it will be
‘business as usual’ for all of the organizations involved.

The MenAfriVac vaccination will likely be given to millions more
third world children across Africa. The vaccination of children with
pre-licensed and unlicensed vaccines, which may be life-threatening,
needs to cease. This is not health care, but a total disregard for human
life in the name of profit.
