Swine flu vaccines cause 17-fold increase in narcolepsy, horrified scientists discover









(NaturalNews) The long-term health damage caused by the great H1N1 swine
flu scam "pandemic" of 2009 -- and particularly the mass vaccination
campaign that accompanied it -- is already becoming apparent in the form
of an autoimmune disorder. A new review published in the journal Public
Library of Science ONE confirms that Pandemrix, a swine flu vaccine
produced by drug giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), is responsible for causing
an up to 1700 percent increase in narcolepsy among children and
teenagers under 17 years of age.

Based on their findings, a cohort of scientists has determined that
narcolepsy rates increased significantly following mass vaccination
campaigns with Pandemrix. Compiled data has revealed that between 2002
and 2009, the narcolepsy rate among children under age 17 was 0.31 per
100,000. But in 2010, that number jumped to 5.3 per 100,000, which
represents a 17-fold increase.

Similarly, research compiled by Markku Partinen of the Helsinki Sleep
Clinic and Hanna Nohynek of the National Institute for Health and
Welfare in Finland, both of which were also involved in the new
research, has determined a link between Pandemrix and narcolepsy.
Children not vaccinated with Pandemrix were found to have a 1300 percent
less risk of developing narcolepsy compared to children who were
vaccinated with Pandemrix.

But because the subject of controversy is a vaccine, researchers were
quick to inject several caveats to their findings that deflected some of
the blame to other potential causes. In their soft-peddled,
politically-correct conclusion, researchers said they "consider it
likely that Pandemrix vaccination contributed, perhaps together with
other environmental factors, to this increase in genetically susceptible
children."

But the findings are strong enough to have prompted officials in Great
Britain to begin their own investigation into Pandemrix causing
narcolepsy in children. Though the U.K.'s Health Protection Agency (HPA)
has declared that seasonal flu vaccine is not linked to narcolepsy, the
agency is concerned that Pandemrix is of a different breed, and that it
is not necessarily safe for children (http://www.guardian.co.uk).

Back in 2009, it was confirmed that narcolepsy is actually an autoimmune
disorder characterized by missing brain cells that are responsible for
producing hypocretin, a hormone that promotes wakefulness. Based on
those findings, which were published in the journal Nature Genetics, it
appears as though Pandemrix may be responsible for actually spurring the
immune system to destroy vital hormone-producing cells in young
children
