U.S. health authorities have made pregnant women one of the highest priority groups for getting the H1N1 swine flu vaccine, but is it actually safe for pregnant women and their babies?
In fact, the package inserts for the swine flu vaccines actually say that the safety of these vaccines for pregnant women has not been established. And miscarriage reports from pregnant women who have taken the H1N1 swine flu vaccine are starting to pour in from all over the nation.
The link below contains stories that will shock and anger you. If you are a pregnant mother, please do not take the H1N1 swine flu vaccine. Instead, do everything that you can do to avoid public places and make sure to wash your hands more than you usually would. Research the many great natural ways there are for fighting the flu.

Misleading Media Denies Connection between Mercury and Autism
Friday, November 06, 2009 by: Aaron Turpen, citizen journalist
NaturalNews) Several recent headlines about a study which concluded that mercury levels in children with autism were not significantly higher than those without have been widely distributed. Headlines reading "Mercury levels not related to autism" and "Mercury not linked with autism, study says" were at the top of many American and European newspapers and magazines in October.1
These publications quickly latched on to the implied fact that because children with autism and those without had about the same blood mercury levels, mercury cannot be the reason children are getting autism. This isn't the first time the media has been misleading in its interpretation of science.
The study they refer to is from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) and was published on October 19, 2009. The study was titled Blood Mercury Concentrations in CHARGE Study Children with and without Autism and was authored by Irva Hertz-Picciotto, Peter G. Green, Lora Delwiche, Robin Hansen, Cheryl Walker, and Isaac N. Pessah. It was published through Environmental Health Perspectives and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.2
The study found that young children without autism have equivalent mercury levels in their blood when compared to children who've been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The study also included children with Down's Syndrome and other developmental disorders.
The study involved 452 children between 2 and 5 years of age and adjusted for demographic and mercury sources such as fish. Most of the children measured, regardless of mental ability, were found to have 0.28 micrograms of mercury per liter of blood or less before adjustments and 0.26mcg/L or less after adjustment.
The problem here is the methodology used and the conclusions drawn by the media versus what the actual science is proposing.
Understanding that blood mercury versus tissue mercury is not the same is the first clue. Mercury absorbed through vaccination goes directly into the blood, but quickly transfers to body tissues. Similarly, mercury absorbed through diet usually is absorbed into tissues quickly. Mercury absorbed directly through the skin travels in the same manner, spending very little time in the blood.
Mercury, when found in the blood, is usually there for one of two reasons: recent introduction or as part of the body's natural flushing system to be rid of it. Mercury, regardless of why it's in the blood, does not stay in blood for very long.
Mercury injected into the blood would have to move on to other tissues before ASD could be caused by it. Regardless of whether mercury caused the ASD, the blood levels of those with and without autism would be roughly the same. Obviously, in order for the mercury to have caused ASD, it has to have affected and damaged the nerve cells. This means it's no longer in the blood stream.
Most scientists agree that the most accurate measurement method of mercury contamination in mammals, including humans, is hair, not blood.
Now, back to the media representation of this study.
Does it seem odd to anyone that this study was done and published and grabbed up by the main stream media right about the same time that H1N1 vaccines containing Thimerosal (a mercury derivative) are being pushed on pregnant women and young children? What about the fact that recent studies, covered here on NaturalNews,3 have shown direct links between mercury and autism and between vaccines themselves and ASD? Yet these studies got little traction in the main stream.
Strange coincidences, to be sure.

"Swine Flu Interview with Dr. Blaylock
Be sure to listen to all of the videos in this series for the rest of the interview and more talk about flu, swine flu, vaccination, pregnancy, and baby's developing brain.
Dr. Blaylock is a board certified neurosurgeon, author and lecturer. For the past 25 years he has practiced neurosurgery in addition to having a nutritional practice. He recently retired from both practices to devote full time to nutritional studies and research.

INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS:
Listen closely around 8:00 about pregnant women!
In the Southern Hemisphere swine flu season....."More pregnant women died during regular seasonal flu than during this flu..." but you don't hear about this in the media,the encourage to scare pregnant women.
"Vaccinating pregnant women significantly elevates their immune reaction....The act of getting the H1N1 vaccine during pregnancy will initiate an immune response stimulating cytokine production and increase the risk of autism and schizophrenia in the children of the pregnant women by 7-14 times..." "Other studies show it increases the babies risk of seizures in life or later in life, developmental problems, behavioral problems...all these sorts of things..." Your OBGYN wouldn't know about this because it's neuroscience...a different field of expertise. "Studies in animals show if you vaccinate them with a single vaccine (during pregnancy) you will produce changes in the altering brain that are exactly like autism and schizophrenia"...Mind you that is ONE vaccine, this year they are recommending that pregnant women recieve 3 vaccines for seasonal flu and H1N1
"So now we're going to experiment with literally millions of pregnant women and I'm predicting a disaster, and of course this disaster is going to take a good while to unfold because kids develop autism ages 2,3 and of course schizophrenia not till after the teenage years so they're thinking it will be far enough separated that we can deny it and say it has nothing to do with it because it was so far away from the vaccine....This is always their response, 'how can it have anything to do with the vaccine?'
Some doctors say 'all vaccine reactions will happen within 24 hours and if it doesn't happen within it's not likely' but the GBS (Guillian Barres Syndrome) that developed in 1976 occurred months after the vaccination. We know that seizures can occur months after the vaccination.
Mothers also need to know that these 2 flu vaccines have a full dose of mercury in them, which in the neuroscience literature, not this nonsense from the vaccine manufacturer, the hard science says that mercury damages the developing brain and remains in that child's brain for decades.
Aluminum adjuvent (in seasonal flu vaccine)- produces an intense immune reaction...and disseminates in the body, ends up in the brain and produces chronic brain inflammation over many years, which is why a lot of these reactions are delayed, because of the slow process which aluminum enters the brain and causes brain inflammatory reaction.
Mercury and Aluminum's toxicity are synergistic.
Dr. Michael Bronze, a professor of internal medicine at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, writing for emedicine medscape.com (WebMD), states that the risk of a pregnant women being hospitalized with the H1N1 infection is 0.32 per 100,000 pregnant women (which is 1 in 300,000 pregnant women).17 One can safely say, based on the Australian/New Zealand experience (at the peak of their flu season) and the American data somewhere in the middle of their flu season, that pregnant women have about a 99.97% chance they will not become so sick as to require hospital care at any level.
Vaccine Safety Testing Only Done for ONE Week
Now we are being told that this new fast tracked, poorly tested vaccine is very safe and effective. The results of the testing on this vaccine were reported in the New England Journal of Medicine.39 It is instructive to learn that the tests for safety and to assess complications lasted only 7 days after the vaccine, an incredibly short period of follow-up. Gullian Barre paralysis can occur even months after a vaccine as can seizures, behavioral problems and neurodevelopmental disorders in children.
It is interesting to note that the authors of the safety study for our swine flu vaccine were all employees of the maker of the vaccine CSL Biotherapeutics and eight held equity interest in the company.39 This admission is part of the disclosure policy of the New England Journal of Medicine.
It is always important to keep in mind when you hear about this vaccine being safe and produced just like the seasonal flu vaccine -- What else do they not know about this vaccine that they will discover months, years or even decades later. Once injected with the vaccine and you develop a complication there will be little that can be done to treat the life-long degenerative disorder it produces. You will just be a sad story on 60 minutes.
