Respondents question H1N1 vaccine: apathy, fear or common sense?
billpar
by billpar  9-22-2009    1
 In the case of the H1N1 vaccine, the adjuvants used are AS03 & MF59, both containing squalene. Squalene is a naturally occurring substance present in human and animal brain tissue. By it’s self, squalene is a “safe” substance, but in it’s role as an adjuvant it can trigger an autoimmune response, where by the body actually attacks itself. In individuals with weakened immune systems this can have devastating consequences.The use of squalene in an adjuvant vaccine in the 1990’s has been linked to Gulf War syndrome and other diseases. Further, concerns are raised by the presence of Thiomersal, a preservative used in the vaccine to prolong shelf life. Thiomersal contains 47-58% mercury which many believe maybe linked to autism and a host of other neurological disorders. Although it has been suggested that there is no definitive scientific link to the onset of autism it has become a very controversial issue and has raised significant concern.

 Theory of Squalene's Action The fact that squalene is a biological compound naturally found in the body is likely the reason it can be so dangerous when injected. When eaten or self-manufactured, squalene arrives in a normal way that doesn't arouse the immune system. However, if the immune system comes into contact with it in conjunction with the injury of injection, it can be taken as an intruder. This sensitizes the immune system into attacking squalene anywhere it's found, thus starting a process of self-destruction, the very definition of an autoimmune disorder. Current Status of Squalene Squalene is approved for use in the European Union, and is now included in the Novartis adjuvant called MF59. This adjuvant is used in the EU-approved influenza vaccine. The FDA has approved fast tracking for development of influenza vaccines. Pharmaceutical corporations Sinovac, Baxter, and Novartis have all announced their plans to have their vaccines available by this autumn. All of the

A Medical Mystery Unfolds
debbyski

 "Tests showed that the man’s spinal cord was markedly inflamed. The cause seemed to be an autoimmune reaction: his immune system was mistakenly attacking his own nerves as if they were a foreign body or a germ. Doctors could not figure out why it had happened, but the standard treatment for inflammation — a steroid drug — seemed to help Neurological illnesses sometimes defy understanding, Dr. Lachance said, and this seemed to be one of them. At the time, it did not occur to anyone that the problem might be related to the patient’s occupation. By spring, he went back to his job. But within weeks, he became ill again. Once more, he recovered after a few months and returned to work — only to get sick all over again."

Too clean? Fight against germs fuels allergy increase
thekay
by thekay  9-15-2007   
 From the article: From the constant use of anti-bacterial soap for dish- and hand-washing to air-tight seals around doors and windows, some modern homes have become shrines to hygiene. Add vaccinations and antibiotics to the mix and the body's immune system can get too much artificial reprieve from nature. "The natural immune system does not have as much to do as it did 50 years ago, because we've increased our efforts to protect our children from dirt and germs," McMorris said in a statement released this month. Plus, the atrophy of family size means children get exposed to fewer germs than the more kid-filled homes of yesteryear. Families with three or more children, a dynamic that was common decades ago, tend to have fewer allergies as they are exposed to more bacteria- and virus-harboring siblings, McMorris said

Rebooting the Immune System of Diabetics
Moonowler
by Moonowler  7-8-2007   
 "We kill the immune system and rebuild it with stem cells from the patient," says Julio Voltarelli, a physician and researcher at the University of Sao Paulo, who led the research. "We can see after transplant that the immune system is now healthy." This type of treatment would only be effective in newly diagnosed diabetics, who still have some beta-cell function left to preserve. For patients with more-advanced forms of the disease, scientists are working on cell transplants to replace lost islet cells, using cells from donor organs and, eventually, from embryonic stem cells.
