SIXTY KIDS VACCINATED AGAINST THE FLU, DIE OF THE FLU
JON RAPPOPORT see more at www.nomorefakenews.com

JANUARY 10, 2004. NY Times. Lawrence Altman, the dean of American medical writers, reported that 93 children have died from the flu this season in the US. Altman states: "Thirty-three of the victims had not been vaccinated. The disease control agency [CDC] recommends vaccination for all healthy children 6 months and older."

Okay Altman...therefore? Are we supposed to imagine that he doesn't see the corollary of what he just wrote? He's brain addled? He can't take the next logical step? He can't push the ball with his nose one last inch? He refuses to mention THEREFORE, 60 OF THE CHILDREN WHO DID DIE FROM THE FLU WERE VACCINATED AGAINST IT.

Hello? Gosh o gee, if I were an editor at the NY Times, I would have blasted the headline: 60 VACCINATED CHILDREN DIE OF FLU ANYWAY. And then I might insert a sub-head: WHOLE VACCINE CAMPAIGN CALLED INTO DOUBT. But no.

And how many readers of the Times do you imagine caught the omission? How many will write a letter to the paper? Oh well, just another day in journalism hell. How about a little interview with a mother of a child who died, who says, "WE THOUGHT OUR GIRL WAS PROTECTED AFTER SHE GOT THE SHOT, BUT THEN SHE DIED. WHAT'S GOING ON?"

How about asking the head of the CDC to comment on the fact that two-thirds of the kids who have died so far received the vaccine? This is fake news at its best. Reverse the whole meaning of the facts. Spin it to the wrong side. "All those kids who got the shot died, but the CDC says vaccinate your kid." And you thought the Jayson Blair scandal at the Times was bad? It was just a tempest in a teacup. THIS is bad. This is the kind of reporting that wouldn't even get by a bored-to-death teacher at a college journalism class. THIS is about health and illness and death. This is madness.

This is a very powerful piece about a mother who "thanks" the MDs and drug companies for causing her child's autism: http://help-bradley.tripod.com/
