The first swine flu vaccines could be available to Americans by the first week of October. However, Barbara Loe Fisher, President of the National Vaccine Information Center, has expressed concerns about the vaccination.

With the latest statistics indicating 300 thousand people are infected worldwide, the early distribution of vaccine shots is crucial to curb the spread of the illness.

The vaccine has been linked to syndromes such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, but nothing has been heard about preliminary results of clinical tests. Moreover, the tests include only 2000 people, which is not enough to really understand the reaction profile of this vaccine, acknowledged Loe Fisher.

“What I’m really concerned about is that are they going to count the really bad reactions that may occur in these clinical trials, or after the vaccine is used, as being associated with the vaccine. Many times they write off anything bad that happens after a vaccination as being a coincidence, when they really don’t know if that’s true,” Loe Fisher told RT.

Yesterday our national news (in Canada) was reporting that a pre-teen died after receiving the swine flu vaccine. Today all the media has been updated to say that she died from the H1N1 (not the vaccine). It's starting.....

The purpose of these vaccines is to create ugenics to the wealthy elite, while de-populating the rest of the world. It is a goal the United Nations have put together through Council of Foreign Relations and Triladeral Commission. They pass that responsibility over to World Health Organization to impliment their goals. The pharmacudical companies have already developed the swine flu vaccination months before the outbreak in Mexico first happened, look into Baxter, also the company Donald Rumsfeld just bought 18 billion dollars in shares. The evidence is out there, people need to look at the facts. Since when does WHO get to play a governing role, and raise the bar as to the threat level of a virus, which has all the proof it has been designed by man. Why is their no real true media couverage of this? Because all big media is under the agenda of NWO.
