<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">A new vaccine for influenza has hit the market, and it is the first ever to contain genetically-modified (GM) proteins derived from insect cells. According to reports, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved the vaccine, known as Flublok, which contains recombinant DNA technology and an insect virus known as baculovirus that is purported to help facilitate the more rap</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">id production of vaccines.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br />
</span></span><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc6uX-CtaJYNXC_oyE_oKpZeLIM_n51x-X-v5k-N_pS7qZBCiZCHU3qkKSmIElW5hLUxKXhCAcTCl0EYXLInPuzyaXv3V-6ByXxplA8VJEUR5sQYuC6mbTpbSNRjXWegnyuAgk8e3iAM5H/s1600/GMO+Vac.jpg" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br />
According to Flublok’s package insert, the vaccine is trivalent, which means it contains GM proteins from three different flu strains. The vaccine’s manufacturer, Protein Sciences Corporation (PSC), explains that Flublok is produced by extracting cells from the fall armyworm, a type of caterpillar, and genetically altering them to produce large amounts of hemagglutinin, a flu virus protein that enables the flu virus itself to enter the body quickly.<br />
<br />
So rather than have to produce vaccines the “traditional” way using egg cultures, vaccine manufacturers will now have the ability to rapidly produce large batches of flu virus protein using GMOs, which is sure to increase profits for the vaccine industry. But it is also sure to lead to all sorts of serious side effects, including the deadly nerve disease Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GSB), which is listed on the shot as a potential side effect.</span></span><br />

<br />
"If Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) has occurred within six weeks of receipt of a prior influenza vaccine, the decision to give Flublock should be based on careful consideration of the potential benefits and risks," explains a section of the vaccine’s literature entitled "Warnings and Precautions." Other potential side effects include allergic reactions, respiratory infections, headaches, fatigue, altered immunocompetence, rhinorrhea, and myalgia.<br />
<br />
According to clinical data provided by PSC in Flublok’s package insert, two study participants actually died during trials of the vaccine. But the company still insists Flublok is safe and effective, and that it is about 45 percent effective against all strains of influenza in circulation, rather than just one or two strains.<br />

African genocide: African Children Still Paralyzed After Mandatory Vaccines, Government Says “All in Their Head”

TheWake UpCall 0 Africa, Vaccine 12:32 PM

<div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">African government is denying vaccines harmed children.<br />
<span class="text_exposed_show">It has now been officially confirmed that in December 2012, 38 children were hospitalized after receiving the meningitis vaccine, MenAfriVac, during a vaccination campaign arranged by the Chadian government. News program France 24 stated that Saleh Ahmat Bodoumi, a former Member of Parliament in Chad, confirmed that seven of the most seriously affected children have since been evacuated from hospitals in the capital city of Ndjamena to the Republic of Tunisia in northern Africa to undergo further investigation and specialized treatment. [1]<br />
</span></span><img alt="African government denying vaccines harming children." height="266" src="http://vactruth.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/african-children-paralyzed-300x199.jpg" width="400" /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="text_exposed_show"><br />
This news was confirmed by the ‘Medical Xpress’ a health news service, which said Health Minister Mamouth Nahor N’Gawara made the following statement to the Agence France-Presse, the largest French news agency in the world (AFP):<br />
<br />
“During the last phase of the vaccination campaign organized at Gouro (near the Libyan border) on December 11 to 15, 2012, unusual reactions were noted.”<br />
<br />
N’Gawara added that “their state of health is not worrying.” [2]<br />
<br />
FORCED VACCINATIONS<br />
<br />
However, the Medical Xpress, along with other websites, followed this story the next day by backtracking and stating the following information:<br />
<br />
“In a statement, the country’s health ministry said tests “failed to establish a causal link between the clinical manifestations observed in the patients and the MenAfriVac vaccine.”<br />
<br />
According to the statement, one child who never received the meningitis shot ‘complained of suffering from the same symptoms’ found in the other children.” [3]<br />
<br />
However, a contact in Chad gave VacTruth an extremely different version of events. He said:<br />
<br />
“The government and the World Health Organization have made up these facts.<br />
<br />
The government banned journalists from visiting the hospital since the children brought in. (sic) All the children from Gouro received the vaccine.<br />
<br />
Firstly, they (Government/WHO) collaborated with the school’s headmaster who locked the school’s main door before vaccinating all the children. The school headmaster told the children that anyone who refused the vaccine would be banned from school and be arrested.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://draft.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5959300518432319010" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="text_exposed_show"> <br />
Secondly, they went door to door and injected the babies over one year.”<br />
<br />
If you find this event difficult to believe, then cast your mind back to 2007 when the news broke that children in Maryland had been forcibly vaccinated at gunpoint under orders from the state Attorney General, various state judges and the local school board director, all of whom illegally conspired to threaten parents with imprisonment if they did not submit their children to vaccinations. [4]<br />
<br />
Another example of these bully boy tactics was seen in Malawi last year, where 131 children were vaccinated at gunpoint after their parents had refused the measles vaccine. [5] [6]<br />
<br />
A TRAGIC TIMELINE<br />
<br />
Interestingly, the health minister ended his official statement by saying that the state of the paralyzed children’s health is not worrisome. If that is true, then why did the Chadian government move them to another hospital and why was this move done in secret?<br />
<br />
Our Chadian contact informed me that the parents were not even allowed to know where the children were being evacuated to prior to evacuation. He confirmed that on the day that the children were evacuated, the N’Djamena International Airport had been closed to visitors!<br />
<br />
VacTruth reported on the Chadian tragedy on January 6, 2013. [7] However, a team of experts in Chad did not begin to investigate the situation fully until January 9. The Prime Minister of Chad did not visit the sick children in hospital until a few days later. On January 13, VacTruth released a film of the TV footage of this visit that had been copied and forwarded to us. [8]<br />
<br />
So, why did the Chadian government take so long to act on this appalling situation? According to France 24, the Health Minister did not make his announcement until January 9, five weeks after the incident occurred.<br />
<br />
Another false representation of the facts being portrayed to the public is the following information which has been reported by several websites:<br />
<br />
“In total, more than 100 million people in ten African countries have been vaccinated against the disease.”<br />
<br />
It is a possibility that tens of millions of people were vaccinated with MenAfriVac, although highly unlikely. However, it is a total impossibility, by the WHOS’s own admission, that this number was vaccinated using the controlled temperature chain (CTC) implementations. In November 2012, WHO stated:<br />
<br />
“Evidence of the heat stability of MenAfriVac® was validated by a team of experts from WHO, PATH, SIIL, and Health Canada. In collaboration with the government of Benin, the Meningitis Vaccine Project (MVP), Optimize, and the WHO regional office for Africa, a pilot use of the MenAfrivac® vaccine in a CTC will be conducted during the upcoming MenAfriVac® campaign in the northern part of the country, from November 15 through 25. Benin is the 10th country to introduce the vaccine, as well as the first country to work with the new CTC implementation guidelines, developed through WHO’s Immunization Practices Advisory Committee”. [9] (emphasis added)</span></span></div><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script><br />

<br />
BREAKING THE RULES, AT LEAST TWICE<br />
<br />
So, what has been going on behind the scenes?<br />
<br />
MenAfriVac was a pre-licensed vaccine still in the testing stages. It had been advertised by all the major organizations involved in the campaign, including UNICEF, FDA, CDC, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, PATH, Meningitis Vaccine Project and WHO, as a vaccine that could be kept in a controlled temperature chain (CTC) at temperatures of up to 40 degrees Celsius for up to four days. However, according to the manufacturer, this information was not strictly true because they state:<br />
<br />
“MenAfriVac should be stored and transported between 2-8ºC. Protect from light. The diluent should be stored at 25°C. It is recommended to protect the reconstituted vaccine from direct sunlight.” [10]<br />
<br />
According to a report of a meeting which took place in October 2012 between the World Health Organization’s Immunizations, Vaccines and Biologicals group and the Immunization Practices Advisory Committee (IPAC), the MenAfriVac vaccine had not been fully licensed and would not be due to be fully endorsed until 2013, at the earliest. [11]<br />
<br />
The children of Gouro were vaccinated in December 2012, apparently with a vaccine that was still being tested which had not yet gained approval to be used outside of a cold temperature chain. According to sources, Dr. Diego Buriot read this message in French on Chad TV, a local television station:<br />
<br />
“We have done all analyses, we believe that the vaccine was not the cause of the paralysis and the children are not in danger. It is clear that the vaccine is not the cause. All seems to show that the vaccine, which already has been largely used on the whole of the chain, does not produce vaccinal complications.<br />
<br />
We have retested the vaccine, both at the level of the producer, as well as at the level of random checks, which are undecided. These will give their results within several weeks, but actually we are sure that the vaccine is not the cause.<br />
<br />
What we are sure of is first of all that there is no danger whatsoever for the children, that is very important to say. All the clinical trials that we have done are completely normal other than this agitation, which is real, it translates the fear of the children.” [translated from French]<br />
<br />
This is the first public acknowledgement admitting that the children had became ill and paralyzed after they had received the vaccination, as well as the first of likely many denials that the vaccine is not to blame.<br />
<br />
So, who is Dr. Diego Buriot and who does he represent?<br />
<br />
IT’S ALL IN THEIR HEAD<br />
<br />
Dr. Diego Buriot is the Director of the WHO Office in Lyon, France. He is in charge of the Department of Communicable Disease Surveillance and Response and with impressive credentials and “considerable experience in the public health problems of developing countries.” [12]<br />
<br />
Of course he would say that the vaccines did not cause the children’s injuries, even though he has admitted that all the test results have not yet been received and won’t be for several weeks. Remember his words?<br />
<br />
“We have retested the vaccine, both at the level of the producer, as well as at the level of random checks, which are undecided. These will give their results within several weeks, but actually we are sure that the vaccine is not the cause.”<br />
<br />
On January 20, 2013, the human rights organization ECOTERRA International and I wrote a letter to the resident representative of WHO in Chad, Dr. Saïdou Pathé Barry. We have checked the WHO website [13] regularly since submitting our inquiry, but we have not found any report or update. For this reason, we have been forced to make a public appeal to WHO and ask them to answer our fourteen questions regarding the MenAfriVac vaccination tragedy at their earliest convenience.<br />
<br />
On January 22, we were given a copy of the original press release signed by The Minister of Public Health, Dr. Mamouth Nahor N’gawara. It makes interesting but predictable reading:<br />
<br />
The findings were the same old same, although the release did admit to the inadequate hospital conditions, the lack of medical follow-up — especially on the psychological level — and the dialogue between the community and the health personnel as being insufficient.<br />
<br />
No cause for the illness of the children appears to have been found. Interestingly, the Experts’ Recommendations stated:<br />
<br />
• Make sure of a progressive yet fast return of the children to their families, and a medical follow up<br />
<br />
• Maintain the dialogue with the families, the actors and the partners of the vaccination<br />
<br />
• Reinforce the medical structure at the local level by adding a doctor and a state registered nurse for a better tracking of the health of the population and the routine activities<br />
<br />
• Reinforce the health personnel capacity in crisis communication and rumor control<br />
<br />
The experts want to stress that the analysis of the epidemiological, medical, clinical and paraclinical data do not permit us to establish a causal link between the clinical manifestations observed in the patients, and the MenAfriVac™ vaccine.<br />
<br />
The symptoms observed in the patients resemble those, which have been described in the literature under several names:<br />
<br />
• collective hysteria<br />
• collective obsessive behavior<br />
• mass psychogenic phenomenon<br />
<br />
In other words, the “experts” are trying to say that the children’s condition is psychological. This move is growing in popularity governments and the medical profession uses the ‘its all in their heads’ phenomenon to minimize vaccine damage, thus shifting the blame to the parents or the victim.<br />
<br />
They finish by stating, translated from French:<br />
<br />
“The independent experts thank the population and the Chadian authorities for the confidence placed in them. They appeal to the diligence of the authorities to put quickly into action the recommendations, which will facilitate the return to a calmed down situation, beneficial to the correct proceeding of the vaccination programs.”<br />
<br />
The press release also says that a final report will be completed by the health services in Tunisia.<br />
<br />
What the press release fails to say is the following: out of the 500 children vaccinated, a total of 106 became ill. Only 38 of the sick children were hospitalized, leaving 62 sick children in Gouro to be cared for by relatives. [13]<br />
<br />
HOW ARE THE CHILDREN DOING?<br />
<br />
When I asked my contact if the conditions of the hospitalized children were improving, he replied:<br />
<br />
“The children in hospital are still paralyzed. Most of the children still can’t stand up. Some have convulsions so badly that they need four people to attend. Those who have convulsions end with their up arms straight and their eyes are fixed and open without reaction.<br />
<br />
We are not receiving enough information about the children the government and WHO took to Tunisia.<br />
<br />
There are sick children left in Gouro who may be evacuated to Libya.”<br />
<br />
CONCLUSION<br />
<br />
We have yet to see the full outcome of the MenAfriVac vaccine tragedy. There is little doubt that these children are very sick and may need lifelong care and attention. They will likely be returned home, if they recover sufficiently, without adequate care and attention and their parents left without help or support to care for their children’s disabilities alone. Unfortunately, many third world countries do not have access to basic equipment such as wheelchairs that we in the Western world take for granted.<br />
<br />
Surely it is now time for the Chadian government and the organizations involved to stop trying to cover up this tragedy and instead, look after all of the sick children properly. I believe that the real tragedy of this whole situation is in a few months, these children like thousands of others, will be forgotten and it will be ‘business as usual’ for all of the organizations involved.<br />
<br />
The MenAfriVac vaccination will likely be given to millions more third world children across Africa. The vaccination of children with pre-licensed and unlicensed vaccines, which may be life-threatening, needs to cease. This is not health care, but a total disregard for human life in the name of profit.<br />

BILL GATES DODGES QUESTIONS ON WHY HE OWNS 500,000 SHARES OF MONSANTO

TheWake UpCall 0 Bill Gates 12:25 PM

<div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bill Gates is primarily known as the multi-billionaire who Microsoft, the company behind the most popular computer operating system known as Windows. With this massive wealth, he has retired from leading Microsoft and now instead focuses his money and time on furthering genetically modified technology, geo<span class="text_exposed_show">engineering, experimental vaccinations, and preaching about how Monsanto is the answer to world hunger.</span><a href="http://www.secretsofthefed.com/bill-gates-dodges-questions-on-why-he-owns-500000-shares-of-monsanto-2/3rs9zt/" rel="attachment wp-att-43363" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"><img alt="3rs9zt" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-43363" height="411" src="http://www.secretsofthefed.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/3rs9zt.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 0px 1px 5px; border-bottom-left-radius: 4px; border-bottom-right-radius: 4px; border-top-left-radius: 4px; border-top-right-radius: 4px; border: 0px; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 0px 1px 5px; height: auto; margin: 0px 0px 16px; max-width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;" width="531" /></a><span class="text_exposed_show"><br />
It should come as no surprise, then, that Gates owns 500,000 shares worth 23 million US dollars (or more) of Monsanto stock. The very same company that has been caught running slave rings in Argentina in which workers were forced to work 14+ hours a day while withholding payment, has used their massive finances to fund organizations that literally fake FDA quotes to support GMOs, and of course peddling through GMOs that have been linked to numerous health concerns.<br />
<br />
This is not even taking into account the farmer suicides that occur around every 30 minutes due to Monsanto’s failing GMO crop yield bankrupting small-time farmers in India’s notorious ‘suicide belt‘.<br />
<br />
Bill Gates Funding Corporations Caught in Child Slave Rings<br />
<br />
And if that’s not enough, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has even teamed up with Cargill to pump GMO soy into the third world. Cargill, of course, is the the 133 billion dollar corporation that also has been found in direct violation of human rights laws. Cargill was sued by the International Labor Rights Fund for trafficking children from Mali and forcing them to work on cocoa bean plantations for around 12 to 14 hours each day without pay, food, or sleep. The company even continues to purchase cotton from Uzbekistan, where it is well known that child slave labor is used in the cultivation.<br />
<br />
Bill Gates himself even filmed commercials for Monsanto’s GMOs, propping them up as the ‘solution’ to world hunger despite even the United Nations admitting that GMOs cannot fight hunger as effectively as traditional farming. Headed by an entity known as the International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD), a team of 900 scientists and researchers studied the issue of world hunger. The results of the major study were very simple: 900 scientists agreed that GMO crops were not the answer to the world hunger, and revealed this in 2008 — long before Bill Gates began claiming that GMOs were the answer while ignoring this readily available information.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://draft.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5959300518432319010" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="text_exposed_show"> Even the Union of Concerned Scientists examined the true yield of GMO crops, only to find that the GM crops do not produce increased yields over the long run — despite their excessive cost and extreme danger to health and environment. The lack of scientific support behind the GMO crops was so startling to the Union that they documented all the details in a 2009 report entitled ”Failure to Yield.”<br />
<br />

Watchdog groups have criticized Gates’ support of these corporations after finding out about his massive funding. One such group, a part of the Community Alliance for Global Justice, stated:<br />
<br />
“Monsanto has a history of blatant disregard for the interests and well being of small farmers around the world… [This] casts serious doubt on the foundation’s heavy funding of agricultural development in Africa…”<br />
<br />
So why is Bill Gates, a man who is propped up by the media as an angel of philanthropy, pumping millions (if not billions) into these operations? And why is he claiming that GMOs can fight world hunger when we know this is not true due to decreased yields and other problems?<br />
<br />
I Asked Bill Gates Why<br />
<br />
In a unique opportunity to ask Bill Gates himself why he has purchased 500,000 shares of Monsanto behind the scenes (expelled into the news thanks to tax information) and teamed up with Cargill to expand GMOs worldwide, myself and several others asked him ourselves.<br />
<br />
Yesterday Gates opened himself up to questions from online users via the social sharing site Reddit, in which he posted an open interview of sorts known as an ‘Ask me Anything’ post. This is essentially an invitation for questions that the subject will answer via text. While I had a large number of questions for Gates, such as if he actually eats GMOs himself, I simply asked him:<br />
<br />
“Why did you buy 500,000 shares of Monsanto stock?”<br />
<br />
Unsurprisingly, the comment received a large degree of feedback. Users asked Gates to please respond to the question, and several others posed similar variations to Gates that all went unanswered (as to be expected). Some quotes from users in response to my question included:<br />
<br />
User Lawfairy replied: “I wish he’d answered this one — to me, this is one of the most curious things about Mr. Gates, whom I otherwise respect as one of the foremost humanists of our generation… Mr. Gates’ relationship with Monsanto is, in my mind, simultaneously the most morally troubling thing about Mr. Gates”<br />
<br />
Another user posted (with links intact): “Would you be willing to take some time to give us some insight with your investments in Monsanto? Despite having the headlines of “ending world hunger”, this company has done some despicable things in the past 100 years and I don’t believe they have the public’s best interest in mind. Having a single company or entity trying to “control”, “manipulate” or “own” the world’s food supply, in my opinion, is not the way to end world hunger.”<br />
<br />
Another user answered with: “Because he is supporting the Bilderberg group!”<br />
<br />
None of these received a response nor did the many others I could not include in this article. The answer, it seems, is to bring this topic to the mainstream. The very same mainstream that seems to think Bill Gates is some sort of philanthropic super star that can do no evil. I am opposed to all wrongdoing at every level, and I find it absolutely disturbing that someone funding the GMO agenda and slave-labor-linked companies has been met with applause.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">by Anthony Gucciardi</span></span></div><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script><br />

The end of antibiotics: Superbug strikes babies in OZ hospitals

This hospital has not yet been identified. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">The head of infection control for Monash Health, Dr Rhonda Stuart, said 21 babies at the Monash Medical Centre and Casey Hospital special care and intensive care units had tested positive for VRE in recent weeks. </span><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">VRE is a bacterium that can colonise the gut and remain harmless for healthy people. However, it can cause serious infections in people with weakened immune systems, particularly cancer, transplant and kidney dialysis patients. </span><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">As its name suggests, VRE is resistant to vancomycin, an anti-biotic that is used to treat serious infections. </span><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Dr Stuart said so far none of the 21 babies had fallen ill because the bacteria appeared to have colonised their guts without causing an infection. However, she said there was a risk the bacterium could become a difficult-to-treat infection for the babies if it got into their bloodstreams. </span><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">''If the bacteria get into the baby through a tube or if they are being fed intravenously, potentially they could develop an infection that way, but with strict hand hygiene and good environmental control we don't expect that to happen,'' she said. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /></span><img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/12/12/article-2073354-00EE8CDC00000578-814_233x423.jpg" /><br />
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Dr Stuart said that although VRE had been increasingly found in Victorian hospitals this year, with most detecting several cases a week, it was the first time Monash Health had discovered it in its newborn wards. </span><br />
<br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /> <span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">She said Monash Health - Victoria's largest health service - was working hard to contain and eliminate the superbug. </span><br />
<br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /> <span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Staff working with the babies are wearing gowns and gloves and washing their hands thoroughly. Babies coming into the wards will not be exposed to babies potentially carrying the organism and each nursery bay is being isolated for disinfection as babies are discharged. </span><br />
<br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /> <span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">The service has also begun ''precautionary screening'' at Dandenong Hospital's nursery and said it was limiting the transfer of babies between Monash Health sites and other health services. </span><br />
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://ads.qadserve.com/t?id=a9d19797-a2f4-4278-bad3-1729dd785474&size=300x250'></script>
<br style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /> <span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">However, Dr Stuart said that before the service detected the first case of VRE in an infant, it had transferred one baby to another hospital's special care nursery. While it is still unknown if this baby is carrying VRE, she said the hospital had been notified on Monday so it could test the baby and take infection-control measures if necessary. She was not willing to name the hospital in case there was no risk and it would alarm the public unnecessarily. </span><br />

Is your TV spying on YOU?

TheWake UpCall 0 Spy, TV 10:40 AM

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It sounds like science fiction but many new TVs can watch you - telling advertisers your favourite shows or even filming you on the sofa. And there's no off switch!</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span id="ext-gen202">You are sitting in bed in your pyjamas, drinking a cup of cocoa. A loved one lies next to you, watching late-night television. Pillow talk is exchanged. An alarm clock is set. Eventually the lights are turned out.</span></span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Earlier, you sat on the living-room sofa eating supper, before loading the dishwasher and heading upstairs.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">You have, in other words, just enjoyed a perfectly normal night, in a perfectly normal home.

Or so you thought.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">The truth turns out to be quite the opposite. For on the other side of the world, people you didn’t know existed are keeping a beady eye on your every move.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br />

But real-life versions of this Orwellian scenario are being played out every day in towns and cities across the globe — and in most cases the victims have no idea.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">At fault is a common electronic device invented nearly a century ago and found in almost every modern household: the domestic television set.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Put simply, our TVs have started spying on us.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Last week, there was a high-profile case in point. An IT consultant called Jason Huntley, who lives in a village near Hull, uncovered evidence that a flat-screen television, which had been sitting in his living room since the summer, was secretly invading his family’s privacy.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">He began investigating the £400 LG device after noticing that its home screen appeared to be showing him ‘targeted’ adverts — for cars, and Knorr stock cubes — based on programmes he’d just been watching.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Huntley decided to monitor information that the so-called smart TV — which connects to the internet — was sending and receiving. He did this by using his laptop effectively as a bridge between his television and the internet receiver, so the laptop was able to show all the data being sucked out of his set.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">He soon discovered that details of not just every show he watched but every button he pressed on his remote control were being sent back to LG’s corporate headquarters  in South Korea.</span></div><div class="floatRHS" style="float: right; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin: 0px 0px 10px 20px; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px; width: 308px;"><span style="background-color: white;"><img alt="Smart televisions, which connect to the internet, could be invading ordinary families' privacy (stock picture)" class="blkBorder" height="423" src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/11/26/article-2513592-054CE48300000514-713_306x423.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(0, 0, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" width="306" /></span><br />
<div class="imageCaption" style="min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Smart televisions, which connect to the internet, could be invading ordinary families' privacy (stock picture)</span></div></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">There, the electronics company appeared to be using its customers’ data to make money. A promotional video shown to commercial clients suggested that data was being used to provide ‘the ad experience you have always dreamed of’.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">The information Huntley’s TV had sent — without his knowledge — included the contents of his private digital video collection, which he’d watched on the television. This included camcorder footage of family celebrations containing images of his wife and two young children.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Most worrying of all, the device continued sending such information to Korea even after Huntley had adjusted the television’s default settings to ‘opt out’ of data sharing.</span></div><br />
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Huntley wrote about the findings on his blog. After his case was picked up by mainstream news outlets, LG announced an investigation. ‘Customer privacy is a top priority,’ the firm said. ‘We are looking into reports that certain viewing information on LG smart TVs was shared without consent.’</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">LG has also removed its promotional video about targeted advertising from its website.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">The Information Commissioner’s Office says it is now investigating the firm for a ‘possible breach’ of the Data Protection Act. Jason Huntley, meanwhile, tells me he is ‘very suspicious and also a little worried’ by the affair.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">‘I don’t think we’ve heard the last of this. Who knows what else these televisions are doing that we don’t know about?’</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">It doesn’t take much digging to find out. Talk to any IT security expert and they will tell you that Huntley’s discovery is probably the tip of the iceberg.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">What’s to blame is the continuing rise of smart televisions, which account for most new TV sets sold and are predicted to be in more than half of British homes by 2016. These high-tech devices differ from traditional televisions in that they are not just passive boxes that receive a signal and transfer it to a backlit screen.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Instead, they are essentially computers that connect to the internet — and so also send information back the other way.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">In theory, this can be extremely useful. For example, many smart TVs have shopping ‘apps’ to access Amazon. They connect to iTunes. They allow us to watch YouTube, instantly download films via Netflix, stream BBC shows on iPlayer, and talk to friends using the video phone link Skype.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">But in practice, like almost every type of computer, they can be all-too-easily hacked. And unlike PCs, almost all of which have fairly good anti-virus ‘firewalls’, smart TVs have little or no such software.<br />
Indeed, most have been designed so that outside software — including anti-virus programmes — can never be installed.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">This year, Luigi Auriemma, an IT security researcher and computer programmer from Malta, demonstrated the risks that these devices pose when he showed it was possible to hack into several types of Samsung smart television.</span></div><div class="clear" style="border: 0px !important; clear: both; float: none !important; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; height: 0px !important; line-height: 0 !important; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important; width: auto;"></div><div class="artSplitter" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin: 0px; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;"><img alt="Last week, IT consultant Jason Huntley uncovered evidence that his LG flat-screen television, which had been sitting in his living room since the summer, was secretly invading his family's privacy" class="blkBorder" height="396" src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/11/26/article-2513592-1A294976000005DC-455_634x396.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(0, 0, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" width="634" /></span><br />

<br />
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Other experts recently made the chilling discovery that it is possible to remotely access the video cameras built into the front of thousands of smart televisions, and spy on the users in their own home.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><a href="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/11/26/article-2513592-00B8E955000004B0-140_306x423.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span style="background-color: white;"><img alt="According to Roger Grimes, who has written eight books on IT security and worked in the field for 28 years, the gangs then sell lists of hacked credit card numbers to fellow criminals" border="0" class="blkBorder" height="320" src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/11/26/article-2513592-00B8E955000004B0-140_306x423.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(0, 0, 0); margin-top: 0px; padding: 0px;" width="230" /></span></a><span style="background-color: white;">One such expert is Kurt Stammberger, who works for the IT security firm Mocana. He says the company was recently asked by a television manufacturer to do ‘penetration tests’ on its devices.<br />
‘We weren’t just able to find out what someone was watching, and had watched,’ he says. ‘We could also install “spyware” that could, if they had a video camera, allow us to see through that camera — without even activating the little light that indicates it’s on.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><a href="https://draft.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5959300518432319010" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><span style="background-color: white;">‘It was a fairly straightforward thing to do. People who work in IT often place tape over their computer’s camera lens [in a laptop they are usually set into the inside of the lid] unless they want to actually use it, because it’s so common to hack them. We should all do the same with smart TVs.’</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Such an attack, which Stammberger describes as ‘frighteningly easy’ to mount, could provide voyeuristic hackers with a chance to snoop on unsuspecting home-owners in their living rooms or bedrooms.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br />
You have only to witness the extraordinary success of the critically acclaimed Channel 4 show Gogglebox, in which consenting families allow the viewing public to watch them watching television, to appreciate how enticing that prospect could be.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">More commercially minded hackers could use such an attack to steal commercial secrets. It could even be used to spy on foreign powers.</span></div><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script><br />

<br />
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white;">‘It’s a serious prospect and I would be very surprised if the Government ever puts in a big order for TVs from, for example, a Chinese manufacturer such as Huawei,’ adds Stammberger, referring to the giant corporation that has been banned in America because of fears over espionage.</span></div><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Source: </span><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2513592/Is-TV-spying-YOU.html">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2513592/Is-TV-spying-YOU.html</a></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many continue to debate whether or not weather modification (or worse) in the form of chemtrails — white lines that at first appear to be jet contrails sprayed across the sky, but instead of readily fading away behind the jets, these trails fan out, stay in the air and sink into a murk on the horizon — exists.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While talking about the chemtrail phenomenon may quickly earn someone a ‘conspiracy theorist’ label (a seemingly automatic, conditioned response that dissuades anyone from critical analysis or doing their own research), in reality scientists and climate change advocates have been openly calling for the spraying of aerosols into the atmosphere to advert supposed man-made climate crises for some time now.</span></div>

According to Wikipedia, Morgellons is “where sufferers have the delusional belief that they are infested with parasites, whereas in reality no such parasites are present,” yet “Sufferers may exhibit a range of cutaneous symptoms such as…unusual fibers in the skin”. If someone is delusional, how can they actually exhibit fibers growing out of their skin? (On an aside, this must be why most college professors won’t allow students to cite Wikipedia as a trusted source on anything).</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In reality, multiple scientific papers (see <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3257881/" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://f1000research.com/articles/2-25/v1" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">here</a> for just two examples) have already linked Morgellons — and the very real fibers it causes to grow out of lesions in people’s skin — to a spyrochetal infection, but the official etiology on Mogellons is still unknown. Moregellons has also been associated in the literature with <a href="http://www.rense.com/general67/plumislandlyme.htm" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Lyme’s Disease</a> — a tick-borne illness tied to World War II and U.S. Operation Paperclip in alarming ways that are outside the scope of this article to discuss, but definitely worth further research.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">According to writer Michael <a href="http://www.thedailysheeple.com/chemtrails-origins-and-implications_082013" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Winter</a>, “The composition of chemtrails is surprisingly simple, even if the chain of events that said composition initiates is not. Chemtrails are comprised of three basic ingredients: powdered aluminum, barium salts and a synthetic carrier substance called <strong style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">polymer fibers</strong>.” [emphasis added] Winter goes on to say, “When you look into the sky and see chemtrails, know at least two things: One – they are composed of ingredients deadly to humans, and Two – they are in the sky. Remember the old song Spinning Wheel? “What comes up…must come down…”</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The question is, are these deadly fibers currently falling all over residents in Southern France?</span></div>
