Immoral Drug Company Experiments on Russian Kids

Perhaps even scarier than the charge that the drug companies are immoral predators, is the possibility that they really believe in what they are doing. If they are predators, then condemnation is easy, because no moral person would act that way.

But if they really believe in what they are doing, then almost any sacrifice is acceptable, since, in their minds, the benefits will eventually outweigh the bad effects. Doctors give their children the same vaccines they give their patients. Drug company executives take their own drugs.

They really believe in what they are doing. The culprit is the culture itself. All medicines are borne out of a cultural context. The cultural context of Western Civilization is dispirited, hyper-materialistic, and superficial. We are all a part of this bizarre world view. Consequently, the medicine we get is supported by a similar weird set of prerogatives, ones disconnected from the roots of life
.

Otherwise, how can we account for the shocking ignorance supporting the advice given by the American Academy of Pediatrics that all preemies should be fully vaccinated?

Yes, it was a misguided experiment to inject these Russian children with untested vaccines. But all vaccines are untested. All children are guinea pigs in vaccine's vast and catastrophic experiment.

As Snoopy said, We have met the enemy, and it is us.

Here's the difference between Russia and the US:
In Russia they choose to not inform the parents about this new vaccine. Doctors seem to work closely with the drug companies to get the vaccines tested. Here in the US, the drug companies not only use the doctors to push their vaccines, they also get help from the mass media and sometimes brainwashed parents who blindly believe what they have been told.

It is disturbing to see how drug companies influence people with TV campaigns and such and how supposedly independent reporters make propaganda for vaccines, using fear as a means to get to people.

The conduct of drug companies is revealed to be more despicable by the hour! However, I wonder exactly how American parents think that the toxic vaccines with which their children are inundated are tested. Obviously none of these parents have bothered to read the packaging information that comes attached to the box in which the vaccines are delivered. Many parents wouldn't buy food without first reading the ingredient list--why would you neglect to do so when the substance being introduced to your child's system is full of chemicals and diseases?! I digress. The packaging on the vaccinations says explicitly that the products are tested on infants. Did we think that these were imaginary infants or are we so disconnected as a country that we don't relate the text with faces, names, pain and suffering? What is even worse to think about it that parents that didn't think about this human-testing would be willing to give what they assume is an untested vaccine to their children! It is nothing new that we exploit underprivileged individuals from other countries to feed American avarice...remember sugar, coffee, cocoa, etc. ?

This doesn't surprise me at all; our food and drug companies (mmm...FDA?) have been experimenting on us for years.

Now, the Russians and US certainly have something in common.

Well, just like the Russain kids, I feel that most US citizens are "experiments" of all these drug companies. Yes they do trials, etc on rats, but most are put onto the market before they truely know what harm they can cause. It all comes down to once they know it does one thing, they want to put it out to make $$$$!

Long ago, my Grandfather suggested to me, as a little boy, "that Russia was the most western of Asian cultures, not the most eastern of European".

Translated from the Italian, it meant the value to life is much degraded in places like Russia, versus most of the west.

How could it not be? With a MASSIVE demographic deficit of human capital, Russia is in particular, very low on male to female ratio population, as a result of two world wars in their backyard, plus MASSIVE (in the many tens of millions genocidally eliminated) Stalin era purges.

However, when you consider it is STANDARD practice to have third party human guinea pig new drug experiments (IN THE WEST BY WESTERN BIG PHARMA) run overseas, to avoid litigation, as well as liability, in places like Russia, Central and South America, Southeast Asia and India, this article is not at all surprising to me.

And you thought 'THE BOYS FROM BRAZIL' was a fictional plot or a movie staring Gregory Peck....or for that matter, LeCarrie's 'The Constant Gardener'...think again.

There is absolutely no excuse for this kind of abuse by any drug company or any kind of company for that matter. Now that we can have drugs approved by the FDA in as little as 6 months, we are all subjected to the same kinds of drug trials here. We are basically guinea pigs for the drug companies use and abuse. I believe that we should all practice what we are taught in the early years, "just say no to drugs".

What kind of weirdos would do this to little children?

Yet another evil rooted in the love of money, I suppose.

May God have mercy on us!
