The swine flu hoax: How some H1N1 swine flu vaccines contain a substance linked to Gulf War

Syndrome, and are now being added to regular seasonal flu vaccines

By Chris Bryan December 2010 Since the emergence of the swine flu in April 2009, the entire scare has been exposed by many professionals as being a giant scam. The Council of Europes Health Commission conducted an investigation into the se ries of events surrounding the alleged pandemic. The chairman of the Health Commission, Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, claimed that the entire scare was hyped up by the vaccine manufacturers, in order to make billions via sales of pandemic flu vaccines to governments worldwide. An article on the matter also appeared in the British Medical Journal. Between them, health authorities and vaccine manufacturers: Secured vaccine contracts with governments before the declaration of a pandemic. Downgraded the definition of a pandemic just weeks after the emergence of the swine flu, in May 2009, through the World Health Organisation (WHO). Secured agreements with governments to get immunity from prosecution from any damage caused by their vaccines. Falsely declared a pandemic through the WHO, of which at least 11 people out of the 20 on its board of directors were in receipt of money from the vaccine manufacturers that stood to gain from it. Hyped up the estimated number of deaths and infections that would be caused by the flu to huge numbers, and had no scientific basis for doing so. Put millions of people at risk by fast-tracking vaccines through normal safety tests.

Despite fear mongering at the time by the media, governments, and health authorities, the swine flu actually turned out to be very mild, so mild in fact that it has been weaker than strains of regular seasonal flu. Many doctors were stating this from the start, as this was what the data at the time actually showed. Special systems of reporting cases of the swine flu were brought in by the authorities. This included setting up hotlines in order for people to report their illness, which was manned by untrained staff, diagnosing cases of swine flu for what could have been a variety of other illnesses, and often turned out to be. This had the deliberate effect of greatly increasing the official numbers of those with the virus, and reinforcing the official scare.

Although many people knew that this was the case, the game was finally up when a request was made to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the Freedom of Information Act by CBS News. When the information was released, it confirmed peoples suspicions; that when properly tested in a lab, only a tiny number of people suffering from flu-like symptoms, most of which were being passed off as swine flu, actually had the H1N1 swine flu strain. In California, for instance, only 2% of those tested had swine flu, 12% had some other form of flu, and 86% of them did not have flu at all. The CDC attempted to block the information from being released, most probably due to CDC employees having financial ties to vaccine manufacturers. There is, however, a wealth of evidence that this hoax was far more than just a ploy to bring in money to the vaccine companies. A lawsuit regarding the swine flu scam was filed with the FBI by the journalist Jane Burgermeister, with its claims supported by many thousands, if not millions, of others. The claims made by many were that the swine flu virus was engineered in a lab, and deliberately released into the population, providing a new virus to assist in justifying a pandemic. The aim was to then get virtually everyone in the world vaccinated, by force if necessary, leading to the eventual aims of causing mass death, illness, possibly the implantation of a microchip, and more. Jane Burgermeister produced a document entitled Bioterrorism Evidence which is essential reading to gain much of the background knowledge regarding these claims, and to understand why such a plan would be formulated and by whom. As a result of the exposure of the scam over the internet and elsewhere, these plans had to be dropped. The scare and the big push to get everyone vaccinated from swine flu, and whatever else was planned, slowly died away. Adding H1N1 vaccine to seasonal flu vaccines Vaccine manufacturers are now trying a new approach to get people to take this vaccine; they are quietly adding the swine flu vaccines into the regular seasonal flu vaccines, for the 2010/2011 flu season. (1)(2) In this way, most people will have no idea that they are receiving something they would otherwise reject, and others will just go along with it in order to receive their seasonal flu vaccine. It is important that those who rejected the H1N1 swine flu vaccines should not take these combination seasonal flu vaccines either. It is debatable as to whether or not flu vaccines actually work, with many experts believing they are virtually useless. (1)(2)(3) Strong evidence points to many other vaccines being ineffective, unnecessary, and dangerous, and causing a variety of disorders such as autism. One recent study showed that those receiving the regular seasonal flu vaccine were more than twice as likely to contract the swine flu.

Many books, such as Vaccinations: Deception and Tragedy by Michael Dye, and Vaccine Safety Manual by Neil Z Miller provide comprehensive information on vaccines. A wealth of information can also be found online on this topic. (1)(2)(3)(4) Swine flu vaccines dangerous There have been various reports of the H1N1 vaccines causing a variety of side effects in people in various countries around the world, showing that this vaccine is indeed dangerous. In Finland, the Swine flu vaccines were suspended after the shots were linked with an increase in the number of cases of narcolepsy. Australia suspended a mixed flu vaccine which included the swine flu strain, after it was linked to convulsions in children at a rate ten times higher than usual. The European Medicines Agency (EMEA) registered many cases of Guillian Barre Syndrome and Multiple Sclerosis which had been caused by the swine flu vaccine. Vaccine ingredient linked to Gulf War Syndrome This website displays the many variations of the swine flu vaccines, and the toxic substances that they contain. Among these ingredients, in some of the H1N1 vaccines, is a substance called squalene, which evidence points to being responsible for causing Gulf War Syndrome (GWS). GWS is the name originally given to the range of disorders that inflicted many military personnel during the time of the first Gulf War, which occurred in 1990-1991. Around 275,000 people were thought to have been affected, from the UK, the US, Australia and Canada, with a large number of troops suspecting new anthrax vaccines given to them during the conflict were the cause. Many people also became afflicted with the condition after a wide scale anthrax vaccination program began in 1998, including during the second Gulf War. There are a multitude of symptoms associated with GWS. Common symptoms include memory loss, rashes, non-healing skin lesions, lupus, chronic headaches, ALS, fevers, weakness, dizziness, chronic fatigue, seizures, multiple sclerosis, and arthritis. Developing a new anthrax vaccine The story to the anthrax vaccines started when a new vaccine began to be developed in the run up to the first Gulf War, when it was realised by the US military that their existing anthrax vaccine could not provide protection from the type of anthrax Iraq was thought to possess. There was also not enough of it to go around, and to gain immunity required six shots over a period of many months, which was impractical. There were two attempts at finding a new anthrax vaccine. The first was just before the first Gulf War, by a team called Project Badger. The second was to find a permanent supply of vaccine after the conflict, by a Working Group formed by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). On both occasions, there had been certain anthrax vaccines recently developed which were far superior to the others, providing more protection with less shots. They used squalene as an adjuvant.

An adjuvant is something added to a vaccine in order to give immunity with a much smaller dose, by boosting the immune response, meaning that less vaccine is needed. Here is a medical study from 1997 of a new anthrax vaccine developed in the UK which used squalene as an adjuvant. It states that the vaccine provided 100% protection against the Ames strain of anthrax when tested on Guinea Pigs. Although the military denies using squalene in the anthrax vaccines, we can see that there was a strong motive for using it both before and after the first Gulf War, and this is the first piece of evidence that this is exactly what they did. Squalene adjuvants were claimed to be safe, and seemed to be an answer to the militarys problems. Squalene-containing anthrax vaccines would have been the first choice. Squalene Although vaccine manufacturers claim it to be safe, squalene has actually been shown to be very harmful when injected. Dr Mercola, who runs Dr Mercolas Natural Health Centre, explains the mechanism by which squalene causes harm to the body: Your immune system recognizes squalene as an oil molecule native to your body. It is found throughout your nervous system and brain. In fact, you can consume squalene in olive oil and not only will your immune system recognize it, you will also reap the benefits of its antioxidant properties. The difference between good and bad squalene is the route by which it enters your body. Injection is an abnormal route of entry which incites your immune system to attack all the squalene in your body, not just the vaccine adjuvant. Your immune system will attempt to destroy the molecule wherever it finds it, including in places where it occurs naturally, and where it is vital to the health of your nervous system. One major piece of evidence that led experts to believe that GWS was caused by the injection of an adjuvant was that the conditions being suffered by these people were all autoimmune disorders. An autoimmune disease is where the body has an immune response to its own molecules (such as squalene), and so it attacks itself. Examples of this kind of disease are arthritis, multiple sclerosis, lupus, and Guillian-Barre syndrome; exactly the conditions repeatedly showing up in cases of GWS. Many labs have shown that a variety of animals also develop autoimmune disorders when injected with squalene, either used by itself or as an adjuvant. Scientists originally used squalene to deliberately cause autoimmune diseases in animals, for study and experimentation. If, for example, scientists were looking to test a cure for arthritis, they would first have to induce arthritis in the study animals, and injecting them with squalene is how they would do it. The following is a partial list of studies on the toxicity of squalene in animals:

The University of California, Los Angeles, US (UCLA), found that the injection of squalene with neurological tissue can cause the animal form of multiple sclerosis; encephalomyelitis (EAE). The Karolinska Institute, Sweden, found that injection with squalene can cause the animal form of rheumatoid arthritis. The Department of Neuropathology, at the Polish Academy of Sciences, found that squalene caused serious damage to the nerves and brains of rats. The University of Florida Medical School found that squalene caused the production of the antibodies that show up in people with lupus, and can induce autoimmunity. The Royal Adelaide Hospital, Australia, found that injection with squalene can cause the animal form of rheumatoid arthritis. A study in humans conducted by the Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Houston, Texas, US, found that the injection of a vaccine containing MF59 (a squalene-containing adjuvant) caused fever, chills, nausea, and dizziness. More studies on squalene can be found here. All of these studies, however, were simply ignored by the drug companies, who looked at squalene as a miracle adjuvant that could be used in a variety of vaccines, which could then bring in billions in profits. To date, there has not been a single peer reviewed study of the toxicity of squalene when injected into animals that has been published by a drug company. Testing on the troops Before the war in the Gulf even began, plans were underway between senior members of the armed forces to possibly perform medical testing on troops in the Gulf, including through vaccines. Medical experiments on troops have routinely been carried out in the past; between 1952 and 1998, military personnel in many bases across the US were tested on without their knowledge with unlicensed flu and common cold vaccines. Despite official denials, there are several additional reasons for believing that a new anthrax vaccine was used on troops in the conflict, besides the fact that they had been looking for a new vaccine: The anthrax vaccines were labelled as secret, and were not recorded in the vaccination record books of soldiers. All items relating to the vaccine were burned after they had been administered. A commander who was in charge of administering vaccines in Saudi Arabia stated that he was told by his superiors that the anthrax vaccine was new. Only one or two shots of the vaccine were given to troops, not the six shots that were needed with the old vaccine, suggesting an adjuvant, probably squalene, was used.

Anthrax vaccines the cause of GWS The anthrax vaccines have been suspected by many troops as being the cause of GWS. Here are some of the reasons why:

Large numbers of soldiers reported a range of adverse reactions shortly after taking the anthrax vaccine; both in the first Gulf war, and then after the anthrax vaccination program began in 1998, and beyond. Several troops developed GWS who never actually left for the Gulf. However, they had received their anthrax vaccines in preparation. More support troops were inflicted with GWS than troops on the front line. It was mainly the support troops who were vaccinated against anthrax, as it was said there was not enough vaccine to go around. Since the first Gulf War began in 1990, there has been a huge rise in the number of military personnel reporting adverse reactions to the anthrax vaccine.

Squalene suspected The first clue that squalene in vaccines was the cause of GWS came after a doctor, referred to as Patient X, had taken part in a clinical trial conducted by the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and was injected with MF59. Patient X soon developed a range of auto-immune symptoms, consistent with those experienced with GWS. Another person, Patient Y received 3 doses of MF59, and developed the same symptoms. The first Tulane Medical School study The Tulane Medical School in the US, with the suspicion that squalene had been in vaccines given to troops and was the cause of GWS, carried out a study which was published in 1999 that examined people exclusively for antibodies to squalene (anti-squalene antibodies, or ASA). If the body were to make antibodies to squalene, it would attack it wherever it found it in the body. Presumably, for this to have happened, the body must have been injected with squalene for the body to perceive squalene as a foreign invader, and mount this response. The following is what they found: Four Gulf War veterans, and another patient who had been injected with an adjuvant, all tested positive for squalene antibodies, with an intensity of either +1 or +2, on a scale of 0 to +4. 300 serum samples were checked, some from sick Gulf War veterans, and some were from healthy controls. Two-thirds of these samples tested higher than the other five samples. Patient X, who had received 1 dose of MF59, tested +1 for ASA, while Patient Y, who received 3 doses of MF59, tested +3 for ASA, providing evidence that ASA severity is directly linked to the amount of squalene injected. 95% of samples from sick Gulf War veterans tested positive for ASA, including three British veterans. Six Gulf War veterans with autoimmune diseases all tested positive for ASA, despite never even going to the Gulf. No healthy Gulf War veterans tested positive for ASA. No members of the general public tested positive for ASA. No patients with idiopathic autoimmune disease (autoimmunity of an unknown origin) tested positive for ASA.

Three out of thirty women with silicone breast implants tested marginally positive for ASA; although the strength of them was very little (silicone was claimed by thousands of women to have caused GWS-like symptoms).

Squalene found in anthrax vaccines What was already obvious to many experts was soon confirmed. Several lots of anthrax vaccines were tested, and were found to contain squalene. The first to find this was the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1999, as is shown in this FDA document. The concentrations of squalene in the five lots of anthrax vaccines tested are as follows: FAV020: 11 parts per billion (ppb) FAV030: 10 ppb FAV038: 27 ppb FAV043: 40 ppb FAV047: 83 ppb Lot FAV008 was also tested, which was given to people in the first Gulf War who had gone on to develop anti-squalene antibodies, and autoimmune diseases. It tested positive for squalene in concentrations between 1ppb and 9ppb. Two lots of British anthrax vaccines tested positive for squalene in 2003, at 36 ppb, similar to lot FAV043 of the US vaccine. Britain adopted the US anthrax vaccine in 1998. It appears that the NIH Working Group, while developing a new vaccine after the first Gulf War, had conducted medical testing on troops, to establish the correct amount of squalene to use in order for the vaccine to be safe and effective. The concentration of the squalene found by the FDA doubles in every so many vaccine lots (as near as can be produced and measured); standard protocol in testing a new product to determine exactly how much is the correct amount to use. It is called a two-fold serial dilution. The aim here was probably 10, 20 40, 80 ppb. The second Tulane study This study, published in 2001, involved drawing blood from four Air Force personnel, both before and after they received an anthrax vaccine which had been confirmed to contain squalene by the FDA. Before the anthrax shots, none of them tested positive for ASA. After the shots, three of them tested positive for ASA, and some developed autoimmune disorders. Excuses and omissions by the FDA The FDA is full of excuses for the squalene found in the anthrax vaccines, and like other government agencies, vehemently denies a link to GWS despite the evidence.

Notice that the FDA in its document, The Facts on Squalene, uses the excuse that the squalene found in the anthrax lots came from fingerprints, or maybe from eggs used in vaccine manufacture, and was not deliberately added. This explanation fails to explain why the successive lots of anthrax vaccines contained squalene in a near-perfect two-fold serial dilution; it is almost impossible that fingerprints or eggs would do that. The section within the document entitled Can squalene cause harm? makes reference to studies of injection of squalene into animals. However, for some reason it fails to mention the results of these studies - that they found squalene causes autoimmunity when injected into animals. Maybe it slipped their mind, or maybe the people working at the FDA with financial ties to the drug companies using squalene as an adjuvant do not want you to know this. They have also conveniently forgotten to let us know that several anthrax vaccines have been developed which use squalene as an adjuvant, and that these provide the highest degree of protection. An excuse is also used that the amount of squalene found is less than in human blood, but as already explained, injection with squalene is very different than eating squalene, and there can be an immune reaction to squalene from just a single molecule. Exactly how much squalene was in the anthrax vaccine, how it got there, or whether or not it is in a quantity great enough to be used as an adjuvant, is a separate issue to the purpose of this article. The fact is, it was found there. Those injected with it then went on to develop anti-squalene antibodies and developed autoimmune disorders, the very same disorders as animals develop when injected with squalene. The safety of squalene There have been studies conducted purporting to show that squalene is safe when injected into humans, including citing the fact that squalene has been used in a seasonal flu vaccine in Europe called Fluad for many years in the form of MF59. These studies have been conducted by either the vaccine manufacturers themselves, or government/military agencies that may be hiding the truth or engaged in a cover-up for obvious reasons, and therefore cannot be trusted from the start. A recent investigation found that studies funded by drug companies almost always show positive results, unlike studies that are truly independent. The Fluad/MF59 studies appear to be fraudulent, as certain tricks seem to have been used to produce the desired outcome and give a false impression. This series of articles provides analysis of many of these studies, which seem specifically designed not to look for autoimmune diseases as a reaction to the vaccines, and would miss them if they showed up. Given that these conditions were caused by the injection of squalene into animals, autoimmunity should have been the first thing they looked for, yet they didnt. None of their studies even mention the fact that squalene has caused serious illness in animals. Also, Fluad was only licensed for use by the elderly, who have a much weaker immune response, and therefore have a smaller chance of developing an autoimmune disorder like a young person would. Even if an elderly person developed an autoimmune disease such as arthritis, it would be passed off as due to old age, not a vaccine. In addition to that, it can take many months or years for an autoimmune disease to show up, yet the studies did not properly monitor people for as long as that after their injections.

Despite all this, several papers still admit that adverse reactions are worse with squalene-containing vaccines than with regular vaccines, and it appears that younger people suffer from these reactions much more frequently. Deliberate damage through vaccines - the World Health Organisation A vaccination program that is deliberately designed to cause harm is carried out by the WHO. The WHO is engaged in a plot to depopulate the world through the use of vaccines, and also for the purpose of eugenics (selective breeding). Documents from the WHO going back decades show that they were experimenting with tetanus vaccines coupled with hCG as a means of causing infertility in women. HCG is a hormone released by the body to sustain a pregnancy. When hCG is coupled with a tetanus vaccine, it causes the body to create antibodies to hCG, meaning that pregnancy can no longer be sustained. The population reduction agenda was documented in NSSM 200, produced by Henry Kissinger in 1974. It talked of the danger to US national security posed by overpopulation in less developed countries. For many years, the WHO has carried out vaccination programs in developing countries, including for tetanus. There have been many reports by women from these countries that after having the tetanus injections, they have had miscarriages and that their menstrual cycles have been messed up, etc. When their blood was tested, it was found to contain antibodies to hCG. The vaccines were tested, and were found to contain hCG. Excuses were made as to how the hCG got there, just as they were with how the squalene got into the anthrax vaccines. The WHO have been caught red-handed. The swine flu vaccines may also be an attempt to cause infertility on a mass scale. Polysorbate 80, an ingredient in swine flu vaccines, has been shown to cause infertility in mice. Conclusion The evidence suggests that there is always a chance that squalene will cause autoimmune disorders when injected into people, used either by itself and/or in conjunction with certain vaccines or vaccine components, such as anthrax. The age of the recipient and other factors could play a part in determining whether autoimmunity develops. There are many unknowns when it comes to squalene. This is summed up by Novartis themselves, who own Chiron, the company that makes Fluad. They stated in 2008 in the publication, Safety of MF59 adjuvant, The precise mechanism of MF59 adjuvanticity is still unknown. Whatever the case may be, there are serious questions to be asked regarding squalene, and thorough, independent investigations to be carried out, especially given the very strong evidence that it caused GWS. Until this is done, squalene should not be put into vaccines.

The act of receiving any vaccination is to take a risk with your health, and the possibility it will cause permanent damage, especially to your natural immune system. Add squalene into the mix, and the possibility of serious harm is greatly increased. It is important that people get properly informed on the subject of vaccination before even considering getting any shot. This applies especially to the H1N1 shot, either by itself or mixed in with the regular seasonal flu vaccine. Government health authorities and the WHO, comprised of many people with financial ties to drug companies, should not be trusted. For detailed information on the subject of GWS and the anthrax vaccines, read the book Vaccine A by Gary Matsumoto (Basic Books, US, 2004), which was used as a source for this article.
