About the drug companies–you just have to do a bit of research to find out that vaccines are the fastest growing segment of the US pharmaceutical industry. Some of the recent vaccines to emerge have been blockbusters–making over half a billion dollars a year (Gardasil, Prevnar), so it is really foolish to think that they have our best interests in mind–they are a profit-making business like any other. And unlike common perception, there is plenty of evidence emerging about the lack of safety of vaccines.

To quote the highly prestigious Dr. Marcia Angell, former editor-in-chief of the NEJM (New England Journal of Medicine):
“It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor of The New England Journal of Medicine.”
