More than 275 Doctors, Scientists and Organizations Sign Letter to President Trump in Support of Independent Vaccine Safety Commission
Washington, DC (PRWEB) March 30, 2017 -- This morning, more than 275 medical doctors, Ph.D. scientists and organizations submitted a letter to President Trump expressing their support for an independent Vaccine Safety Commission. Five of the signers of the letter, including two medical doctors, two Ph.D. scientists and one medical journalist, will hold a press conference at 9:00 AM Friday, March 31 at the National Press Club to present scientific evidence documenting that vaccines not only cause autism but also cause numerous other medical conditions and death.
“President Trump’s call for a Vaccine Safety Commission has largely been derided by those who profit from vaccines and by the mainstream media,” said Dr. Paul Thomas, AAP board certified pediatrician. “We came to Washington to talk directly with the media in hopes they will recognize and report that many doctors and scientists support this commission.”
Unlike with any other product sold in the United States, manufacturers of vaccines are shielded from liability for any harm their vaccines cause since the passage of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Instead, the Act’s National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) allows individuals to file a petition for compensation. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Resources and Services Administration, since 1988, more than $3.6 billion dollars in publicly funded compensation have been paid out to the injured.
The letter, which will be available on the group’s website http://www.HonestyinMedia.org on Thursday, March 30, cites two recent Centers for Disease Control (CDC) whistleblowers’ actions as examples of why a vaccine safety commission is justified.
Specifically, instances like CDC whistleblower Dr. William Thompson, who came forth in 2014 and admitted he and several colleagues committed scientific fraud on a pivotal vaccine study, and more recently, a group of anonymous scientists at the CDC who formed the organization Scientists Preserving Integrity, Diligence and Ethics in Research (SPIDER) in response to rampant data destruction and research manipulation.
SPIDER writes, “It appears that our mission is being influenced and shaped by outside parties and rogue interests. It seems that our mission and Congressional intent for our agency is being circumvented by some of our leaders. What concerns us most, is that it is becoming the norm and not the rare exception. Some senior management officials at CDC are clearly aware and even condone these behaviors.”
Dr. Brian Hooker, father of a vaccine-injured child and a Ph.D. researcher, has fought to restore integrity at the CDC for more than 16 years, using the Freedom of Information Act to gather as much data as he could from the studies that the CDC has published that claim there is no link between vaccines and autism. “If the media were truly doing their jobs, every newspaper in America would have covered the story of a CDC whistleblower who acknowledged that the CDC literally threw research proving an association between vaccines and autism in the trash.”
The speakers, signing doctors and scientists, and the hundreds of organizations and individuals who make up the Honesty in Media movement, intend for this press conference and letter to President Trump to serve as the catalyst for increased transparency and accountability surrounding these important issues in the government and media, and that it will drive action towards creating a much-needed independent Vaccine Safety Commission.
