Farben And Rockefellers Smallpox
The vaccine in general, and the smallpox vaccine in particular, does not have a good track record as a medicine. For example, Japan experienced yearly increases in small pox following the introduction of compulsory smallpox vaccines in 1872. By 1892, there were 29,979 deaths, and all had been vaccinated. (144) Early in this century, the Philippines experienced their worst smallpox epidemic ever after 8 million people received 24.5 million vaccine doses; the death rate quadrupled as a result. (145)
The smallpox vaccines major producer today? Acambis (Farben). The Merck (Rockefeller - see below) pharmaceutical company is partnered with Aventis and Acambis in Europe and thus involved in the smallpox and West Nile Virus vaccine trade. The only other smallpox vaccine manufacturer is Baxter (Rockefeller). (146)
Bush cabinet members met secretly with officials of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) to develop plans for their Emergency Preparedness Task Force. The group is said to have prepared enough drugs and vaccines to protect every American against the threats of anthrax and smallpox. PhRMA task force officials, directed by Aventis (Farben) executive Richard Markham, and representing a number of other Farben-Rockefeller progeny and beneficiaries including American Home Products, Abbott Laboratories, Merck, Pfizer, and more, according to the New York Times (Nov. 4, 2001), have met regularly with Bush cabinet members. According to Dr. Sidney M. Wolfe, a director at Ralph Naders public Citizen Health Research Group, the meetings violated a federal law for transparency of such decision-making committees. (147)
The 1994 "Rockefeller Report," prepared for the Committee on Veterans Affairs, had many findings, including "finding H": "The safety of the botulism vaccine was not established prior to the Persian Gulf War and remains uncertain." and "finding I": "Records of anthrax vaccine are not suitable to evaluate safety."
