Happy New Year!
9th January, 2012
Another year has come to a speedy closure with a new year already upon us. 2011 was a very busy year personally for the VAIS team, which meant the final Daisychain needed to move down the 'to-do' list. All was not forgotten though and with some dedication and focus, the final issue has finally come to fruition.

Whistleblower Scientist
Accuses British Medical
Journal of Institutional
Research Misconduct
Natural News, February 2011.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. David Lewis, internationally known whistleblower and respected expert on institutional fraud, released a report today calling for a formal investigation into the practices of the British Medical Journal (BMJ), and specifically into the actions of its editor, Dr. Fiona Godlee, and Brian Deer, a reporter she hired to write a series of articles which appeared in the journal beginning on January 4, 2011.

The BMJ articles accuse Dr. Andrew Wakefield of committing scientific fraud in a 1998 Lancet publication he co-authored that brought global attention to a link many parents and physicians suspect may exist between autism and children who are genetically predisposed to adverse reactions from the Measles/Mumps/Rubella (MMR) vaccine.

The BMJ, Deer, and Godlee alleged that Wakefield fabricated a diagnosis of colitis in most of the 12 children described in The Lancet article — calling Wakefield's work an "elaborate fraud" intended to create an "MMR scare" — so Wakefield could profit from a patent related to his research.

"Documents recovered from Dr. Wakefield's files during my investigation at the National Whistleblowers Center (NWC) - www.researchmisconduct.org - reveal that a pathologist associated with the study, Dr. Andrew Anthony, interpreted a number of the children's biopsies as evidence of colitis," explained Dr. Lewis. "Altogether, the evidence contained in Wakefield's files suggested to me that the BMJ's fraud theory was more tabloid news than science."

Child's fit escalates
CSL flu jab row
Natasha Bita, Consumer editor From: The Australian October 21, 2011
A THREE-YEAR-OLD child suffered a fit and became "non-responsive" for up to seven minutes after being injected with CSL's flu vaccine during a trial supervised by the federal government's top immunisation adviser.
Despite this, the Therapeutic Goods Administration last night said it was "not notified" of the finding until May last year, a month after CSL's flu vaccine was banned for young children when it triggered febrile convulsions at 10 times the usual rate.
"The TGA has written to CSL asking for an explanation of the timing of this notification of safety-related data," a spokeswoman said.

New Vaccine Report
"This report is an absolute must-read for parents everywhere. It contains the facts about vaccines, children and immune health that the vaccine manufacturers and government health authorities don't want circulated. Whether or not you choose to vaccinate yourself or your children, you owe it to yourself to hear both side of the story before making a decision, and this report tells you the side of the story your doctor was never taught in medical school."
