(NaturalNews) Like a playground bully who is determined to have everyone see things their way and who has an answer for everything, Dr. Paul Offit recently taught other doctors how to respond to parents who dared question their child's need for vaccinations.
Dr. Offit, an established pediatrician at the University of Pennsylvania and a strong advocate for childhood vaccines (he's the co-inventor of the rotavirus vaccine), fired off a series of questions to doctors as part of several mock patient-doctor scenarios.
A lesson in changing concerned parent's minds
The goal at this well-attended UCLA lecture was to help doctors become familiar with the questions and arguments an anti-vaccine parent may pose, then coach them by providing a slew of canned comebacks designed to change parent's hesitant mind. Getting parents away from resources that told them anything but good words about vaccinations, from conversations during play dates to Internet research, was imperative.
"I know you doctors keep telling me that vaccines don't cause autism," said Dr. Offit, playing the role of a concerned parent. "If that's true, then why is it on this package insert?" He asked the question to a doctor in the lecture hall who quickly responded by telling the "parent" that such inserts list "temporally associated symptoms" that may not have been caused directly by the vaccine.
The conversation continued with Dr. Offit ultimately explaining to lecture attendees that any condition that takes place within six weeks of a vaccination, no matter what it is, must be listed by drug companies. In an attempt to brush mercury and aluminum-laden injections under the carpet and dismiss their negative health consequences, he used the example of the chickenpox
vaccine. "If you look at the original package insert for chickenpox vaccine," he says, "it says, 'Broken leg has been associated with this drug,'"
Attendees of Dr. Offit's mock Q/A session applaud his brainwashing efforts
Attendee Dr. Lisa Stern, who says that her patients - which are typically affluent and well-informed - constantly ask her questions about infant and child vaccines, felt the lecture was insightful. "There's a lot of misinformation at baby groups and on the playground," Stern said. "The more educated people are and the more free time they have, the more they take a position."
Since when is being educated and taking a position on something a bad thing?
Families and even doctors are well aware of serious health risks vaccinations present
Far too many people know of the ill effects caused by vaccinations.
Consider the young Florida girl who, just four days after receiving her flu shot this year, developed a serious brain disease that left her once-healthy body wheelchair-bound and eating from a tube. Tell that to the friends and family of five elderly people who lived at an assisted living center who died one week after they had they flu shot in November.
Even doctors themselves know better than to believe the hype that Dr. Offit predictably spews forth.
Illinois physician Dr. Toni Bark has engaged in a complete turnaround concerning vaccinations. She explains that in the 1980s, she'd become bothered by
parents who didn't want their child vaccinated, yet admits that she wasn't told much about side effects. Flash forward a decade later, when she started studying classical homeopathy, and she's now a professional who sides with the parents she once had issue with.
"I can say in my patient population, the kids with chronic illness are the kids who were vaccinated," Dr. Bark says. "And the kids that weren't vaccinated, I don't have any of those children on medications. None of them have chronic illness. I can't think of one that has any kind of chronic illness. Not one."
She goes on to say that when she was an
ER resident, she'd observe parents brining their children in for arching backs and seizures.
Where were they previously?
"They had been in the vaccine clinic that day or the day before," she says.
