#Your Autumn Guide To Apples Infographic The Baldwin. The Northern spy. Apples are named almost always after old moneyed English people
and fruits that are poisonous or indigestible to most animals; think of the eucalyptus of Australia or the bamboo forests of China.
#The latest outbreak of measles in the U s a preventable disease that the Western hemisphere eradicated decades ago thanks to vaccines has been traced to a megachurch in Texas. The church's senior pastor Terri Pearsons had criticized previously vaccines USA Today reports.
One ill child is 4 months old too young to have received the measles vaccine. On average among 1000 kids who contract measles one gets a serious brain infection called encephalitis and one or two kids die.
After the outbreak the church offered its members free immunizations and urged the congregation to get vaccinated which sounds great.
But a statement from church leaders issued last week still includes some troubling unscientific claims.
For one Pearsons suggested that excessive amounts of Vitamin d may bolster the body against measles. There is no evidence to support that.
The Eagle Mountain International Church in Newark Texas released a statement for its members on August 15 the day after the Tarrant County Public health Department informed the church that one of its missionaries who traveled to a country where measles is had still endemic brought the virus
I believe it is wrong to be against vaccinations and the disease is only shut down
when all are immunized. At the same time she also supported some strange untrue ideas. In a statement about the church's measles outbreak Pearsons urged adults
and kids to take three times as much Vitamin d as their recommended daily allowance. The concerns we have had are primarily with very young children who have family history of autism
and with bundling too many immunizations at one time she wrote. The statement suggests there's some link between vaccines
and autism when there is none. It also suggests following the recommended vaccine schedule is somehow dangerous.
The recommended schedule has never been linked to getting diseases later in life nor is there any evidence that getting vaccines at a young age is harmful to babies.
In addition to urging them to get vaccinated Pearsons told her congregation to take excessive amounts of Vitamin d.
I also strongly recommend taking Vitamin d at 1000 units a day for young children and 2000 units a day for older children and adults ongoing.
This is an effective immune system booster she wrote. First Vitamin d does not protect against measles. Second that's about three times as much Vitamin d as kids and adults need.
For kids younger than 7 months 1000 international units is actually the upper recommended daily limit for Vitamin d intake.
Most studies found that adults ingesting at least 10000 international units of Vitamin d a day have increased an risk symptoms such as weight loss excessive urine production heart arrhythmias and damage to the heart
Some studies suggest people can damage their health by regularly ingesting 5000 international units of Vitamin d a day.
but I wouldn't take my health advice from there. So...the church leaders were initially against vaccinations for dubious reasons then they changed their minds
and went to the trouble of offering free vaccinations to correct their error and then suggested taking 1000 mg to 2000 mg of Vitamin d to boost the immune system in addition to vaccinations.
A lot of current research indicates that Vitamin d improves immune response and nothing shows that 2000 mg is anywhere close to a toxic or unhealthy amount.
So...where's the problem? I think the pastor should be prosecuted for practicing medicine without a license.
Francie Derp-a-derp. Religion the original oxymoron. As is so often if not always the case with articles condemning suspicion of vaccines this engages in misrepresentation and misinterpretation.
It states that measles was âÂ#Âoeeradicatedã¢Â# in the West. To âÂ#Âoeeradicateã¢Â# a disease means to eliminate it entirely even to the point of the virus itself.
But there is no evidence the virus has been destroyed in the West. It is unclear exactly what evidence the Tarrant County Health Department has that the missionary brought the measles that supposedly infected the congregation.
In fact given the means of measles transmission it is ridiculously easy to stage an artificial infection.
And note the article talks about infants being in danger because they don't receive vaccines for measles at such an early age.
But that would mean that before the vaccination was available measles would have to have been something regularly if not universally contracted in infancy.
And there are no records of that ever being the case. Indeed infants may be protected naturally from the disease.
The article claims that there is no link between vaccines and autism when in reality there is no published link!
With the refusal of a âÂ#Âoejournalã¢Â# to publish and threats of not receiving further funding
if you don't do what the New world Order demands unsurprisingly many will not push on material that proves vaccines are dangerous.
An eminent demonstration of the lies spread by âÂ#Âoescienceã¢Â# is placed that
I a comment on Bad Astronomy on Slate detailing information mentioned here and they removed it.
They were not content with discussing and trying to counter it because they knew they couldn't. They use the New world Order trick of trying to keep the information from being mentioned at all.
Julian there is no such thing as the new world order. Vaccines are your friends that's how we*eradicated*polio and smallpox.
Fool. Self correcting problem anyway. Only the nuts will die from measles. They removed it for the same reason popsci should remove you from here.
They won't because the more people that read popsci the better for popsci. There is no reason for Bad Astronomy to respond to such lunacy as you would just think they were following new world orders.
Throw away your computer as it is just a science lie and by the way the internet doesn't exist.
and of course that church didn't actually help in getting vaccines. Thanks for letting me know about the new world order I would have guessed never such a thing existed
There was a whole campaign saying the MMR jab was linked to Autism. Massive breakout of measles in what could have been prevented an easily occurrence.
These idiots. I'd doubt they'd say the same of smallpox if it was still prevalent!
Now nothing to fret concerning about earnings. Our company needs home users for their financial reporting.
âÂ#â âÂctually about 15 years ago there was a specific type of vaccine that
although it was never directly proven hospitals stopped giving the vaccine due to a large coincidence of kids getting autism from it.
I happen to know a person that got autism from said vaccine at the age of 8!
They were completely normal prior the vaccination. That's pretty freaking scary. Now no one uses that vaccine anymore
and the only trail you need to follow is what types of vaccines are used now
and why the old ones were replaced. You can't hide that data. Truth is we weren't very good at making safe vaccines back in the day.
However the incidence of children getting autism from that vaccine was still very small compared to the number of children who were vaccinated.
People who deny that the evolution of bacteria pathogens and microbes will surpass our own immune response are mistaken sadly.
They do and will. If you don't vaccinate then you put yourself at risk. A better argument is that
I will wait until the technology is safer. A bad argument is the human body is capable of defending itself against anything..
Simply not true and very naive. To the defense of the religious it does appear that no man-made treatments
or cures are as good as Stem Cell Therapies which replace the bodies dwindling source pluro stem cells for various cell types.
when it comes to health. They can fix any damage of any cell and become the damaged or missing cells themselves.
So it appears that God did put the perfect medicine in our bodies after all. It still takes human ingenuity to be able to use them though.
BTW big pharma is trying to stop a collapse in the industry by using the FDA to regulate the amount of time that you have to extract modify
Ironically Big Pharma is rapidly trying to get hooks into the industry and are creating new types of trophins
The FDA and Big Pharma are sucking each other off right now basically. Sad. You can still get the treatments done in Europe Mexico China and the Dominican.
including HIV. Nothing. Enjoy!!!Do not try and bend the spoon. That is impossible. Only try and realize the truth-there is no spoon.
Thus this is a modern enlightened liberal congregation of feel-good back-to-the-Earthmother vegan hippies who are not vaccinating their children with the wicked chemicals of the modern world.
and vaccines are good and proven science (we are rather glad not to have to deal with smallpox anymore).
MMRS do cause Autism. As I state before I know a girl who became autistic after receiving at the age of 8

For those of you who think that the US is the super power in health and medicince...
In obesity rates heart disease bowel and insulin issues we are the leader. Big Pharma the CDC and the FDA hide a lot of medical data.
We may have advanced the most military and lead the world in other areas but in the area of medicine we are not the pioneers.
Most of you admit to the corrupt behavior in our highest offices of government but when it comes to things like health
and safety regulations you think it stops. Medical is big money. Vaccines are not always safe:
The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program has paid out over $2 billion in compensation to families who have been damaged by vaccines.
This article does little to help the situation as this liberal media bullshit site simply spews
what its given to believe. Sad. Stop eating the BS you are fed people. Research beyond the Wiki.
Only try and realize the truth-there is no spoon. troll@D49 could you provide a URL to a medical journal or something that talks about the potential dangers of vaccines?
I don't think that vaccines can cause autism or similar things based on what I've read
which aren't exactly medical research. If you want to prove us wrong as you say a good way to do that would be giving evidence that proves it.
Part of the point here was that the direct medical evidence has been blocked to a large degree. This isn't just Italy mind you.
I don't need the scientific medical study showing the link. If I had it I would be either dead or a very rich man.
The other strengthening factor here is that the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program has paid out over $2 billion in compensation to families who have been damaged by vaccines.
I also suggest reading why it was they threw out the research of Dr. Anrdrew Wakefield.

This Church isn't a Church of Scientology they just simply are afraid of their children becoming autistic after receiving the injections.
young Emily Moller from Houston won compensation following vaccine-related brain injury that once again involved MMR and resulted in autism.
or the court ruled that vaccines had caused brain injury. In turn this injury led to an ASD diagnosis. MMR vaccine was the common denominator in these cases.
âÂ#Â#The report echoes the exact same sentiment that our reader conveyed âÂ#ÂDR.
The account reports âÂ# While repeated studies from around the world confirmed Wakefieldã¢Â#Â#s bowel disease in autistic children and his position that safety studies of the MMR
are inadequate Dr. Wakefield âÂ#Â#s career has been destroyed by false allegations. Despite this he continues to work tirelessly to help solve the autism catastrophe.
âÂ#Â#How many more cases do need you? How many more cases that award in favor of the victim with hidden evidence of the link.
-We agree that your child got autism after the vaccinations but we won't go on record as saying that.

You don't think that the government and big pharma cover up evidence of those early mistakes?
To all who think that you have been given a straight answer to these issues you are being fooled.
We all know that we didn't know enough back then to have foreseen these issues with vaccines.
However instead of taking responsibility for them which would cost billions we instead allow the federal court system
and pharma to hide the evidence of their damage. This is not just limited to MMRS either.
For those of you who received Polop Vaccines...ouch. The CDC is not some trustworthy source of information either.
Taking their word for it is horribly bad as well. They cover up just as much. Do not try

However this is real evidence of the effects of vaccines. Don't believe that something is safe just
or paid for by the same company that makes the vaccines. You may have an underlying condition that
when combined with a vaccine will make you sick. You may possible develop nervous system disorders
or you may die. Your children may develop problems if they take the vaccines. That doesn't mean that you won't gauge the risk
and do it anyways but at least you acknowledge that there is one. They are not SAFE. Do your research.
and interests in Big Pharma. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HURT BY VACCINES. THAT IS A FACT. ARGUE ALL DAY IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE NUMBERS.
Do not try and bend the spoon. That is impossible. Only try and realize the truth-there is no spoon.
Enjoy your vaccines!:Do not try and bend the spoon. That is impossible. Only try and realize the truth-there is no spoon.
but it is another example of vaccine failure in any case. The germ theory needs to be rethought.
me disease invites germs germs don't spark disease (most of the time). When thought of in this manner it explains why some people get deathly ill from a microbe
and others don't show a single symptom (so-called'carriers').'It also explains why vaccinated people still get the exact diseases they were vaccinated for.
It's about the immune system. When it works like it evolved to the endless variety of potential pathogens rarely cause problems.
So if a child has a healthy immune system and gets vaccinated is it the innate system providing protection
or the vaccine (vaccine supporters assume the vaccine)? And how would one ever know? Well supposed adequate antibody titer levels are the measure
but these have failed repeatedly to correlate with protection (meaning blood work on the few occasions it is checked will reveal antibodies from the vaccine present
but the person still'caught'the disease). In vaccinated people that still get sick that would imply an immune issue that failed to ward off a pathogen early
and thus major symptoms came forth even with vaccine antibodies present. And this happens every time an'outbreak'occurs somewhere (just like the above example.
Flu pertussis measles you name it many of the infected (if not most) are fully or partially vaccinated people.
What else would explain why vaccinations fail? If they worked they would work. If you dig through old writings from the last couple centuries many physicians found evidence supporting the idea of immune issues involved with smallpox.
The smallpox vaccine had discovered critics who from their field work that the vaccine didn't work
and that the sick ones very often were already sickly which to the physicians made it clear smallpox was likely related to nutritional deficiencies (smallpox outbreaks would often follow poor growing seasons which invariably led to malnutrition for many...
lack of fruits and vegetables and thus a lack of Vitamin c in particular was thought the main factor.
But these physicians were ignored as most of their peers were inculcated already totally in the belief in vaccines.
And nothing has changed in over a century. There is still not a single control study to settle the issue (control studies for vaccines are compared not against a saline placebo but against an already'established as safe'vaccine...
it would be like comparing ibuprofin to naproxen instead of to a sugar pill and then concluding it's safe
since the side effects are no worse...how is that hard science?..and as expected the side effects are the usual quite serious list that you see in the package inserts.
The claim of breach of ethics for withholding vaccines is not a valid argument as drug companies have no problem testing every other drug on participants
(which DO result in death sometimes). But that is their cover to avoid a real experiment (how about at least do a control study
but lose the double-blind since volunteers could surely be found?).It's hypocritical for the vaccine pushers to claim vaccines as hard science
when that science has never actually been done and then endlessly demand every critic to prove everything.
If you look through the graphs on the dissolvingillusions website you will see that mortality from many diseases had dropped considerably well before vaccines came to market.
That alone should give pause to vaccine supporters (yet it never seems to oddly enough and instead draws attacks claiming fake data
This data supports the idea that people's immune systems were better able to handle pathogens most likely from improved nutrition (less exposure could be another factor
How do vaccine supporters explain the death decreases before vaccines and the clear downward trend every disease was displaying (Scarlet fever is interesting as it followed a similar progression down
but there never was a vaccine)? Improved medical care? Perhaps but IV's were not widely in use until the 1950's
and before that time hospitals were known not exactly for the life saving things we are familiar with today.
Antibiotics also came into play in the 1940's but that only treats bacterial critters and not viruses.
So I don't suspect improved medical treatment can explain the drop in mortality of all these dise 4
#FDA Aims To Reduce Use Of Antibiotics For Fattening Farm Animalsthe U s. Food and Drug Administration is asking veterinary drug companies to voluntarily agree to make it illegal to feed healthy animals some antibiotics.
If the antibiotic is on the FDA s list of drugs that are used related to drugs to fight infections in people including everything from bronchitis to urinary tract infections to Lyme disease to infections after surgeries then the agency is asking companies to stop their use for fattening up pigs chickens
and other animals people eat. The move is meant to reduce the amount of antibiotics farmers feed to food animals.
âÂ#Âoewith these changes there will be fewer approved uses for animal antibiotics and the remaining uses will be under tighter controlã¢Â# Michael Taylor the FDA s deputy commissioner for foods
and veterinary medicine said in a conference call for reporters. Scientists have warned long that the constant use of antibiotics in farm animals is a threat to human health
but U s. agencies haven't taken a lot of official action on the issue. After talks with industry folks FDA officials believe companies will comply with the new program.
Making the changes this way voluntarily is faster than the FDA s legal process which would require the agency to evaluate every antibiotic individually Taylor added.
Critics of the program say it may not make much of a dent in how antibiotics are used on animal farms.
âÂ#Âoeeven if it were observed by the industry there s no guarantee that the usage profile for these drugs would changeã¢Â# Keeve Nachman who studies food production at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public health tells Popular Science.
Nachman and other critics worry farmers and farming companies will simply switch from saying the medicines are for making animals grow to saying they're for preventing illness in animals.
For many antibiotics the dosages for both indications are similar. Why cut down on antibiotic use?
Concern about the rise of antibiotic-resistant microbes is the primary reason. Such microbes can give people diseases that no modern antibiotics are able to cure.
One recent U s. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report found that 2 million Americans get antibiotic-resistant illnesses every year
and 23000 Americans die from them. These illnesses evolved recently after decades of unnecessary antibiotic use among farmers doctors and patients.
On many farms animals eat low doses of antibiotics mixed into their food either to make them grow faster
or grow more on less food. It's not clear exactly why low-dose antibiotics fatten animals up
although one study done in mice hints that it's got something to do with changes to the animals'gut microbes.
Farmers and farming companies don t need prescriptions from veterinarians to get drugged feeds; they get them from feed stores.
Once inside livestock s bodies the medicines kill off most microbes but leave behind so-called superbugs that are able survive a round of antibiotics.
The low doses used to promote growth are especially prone to leaving superbugs behind. Eventually the resistant microbes come out of the animals uhh other ends
and from there may spread to crops as fertilizer get carried around by birds and eventually make it to people.
Multiply this by millions of farm animals and years of antibiotic use and you eventually breed large populations of superbugs.
Getting farms to stop using antibiotics unnecessarily would be a major step toward slowing the evolution of superbugs.
The argument now is whether the FDA s new program actually does this. Critics worry that farms will continue to use antibiotics widely
while complying with the FDA's request to the letter. This blog post from National Resources Defense Council lawyer Avinash Kar summarizes that argument.
The National Resources Defense Council has sued the FDA over the use of antibiotics in farm animals.
when companies agree to the new FDA program non-growth uses of antibiotics should require the equivalent of a prescription from a veterinarian.
âÂ#Âoeit s a big shift from the current situationã¢Â# in which animal antibiotics are available to farming companies over-the-counter Taylor said.
Others are not so sure veterinarians will act as good gatekeepers to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use.
but unless these veterinarians believe these uses are creating a public health problem they have no incentive to do thatã¢Â# says Steven Roach a program director for public health at the Food Animal Concerns Trust a farm animal welfare
When organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the World health organization tell moms to breastfeed their infants they may not be considering the role of internet milk.
or contaminated with pathogens. Now a new study is offering the first scientific evidence that breast milk sold
The journal Pediatrics has published the first study of the safety of breast milk purchased online comparing milk from milk banks
and tested the samples for illness-causing microbes. They found 74 percent of the samples were contaminated with bacteria such as E coli.
You just shouldn't feed that raw to a baby the study's leader Sarah Keim of the Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus told Reuters. At least the researchers found none of the samples had HIV.
However the study researchers say such milk is likely dangerous for infants especially premature babies or babies with other medical problems.
Breast milk banks screen their donators for illnesses and pasteurize the milk they sell so they're safer the researchers found.
There's only enough bank milk for the neediest infants in hospitals however and bank milk costs as much as $6 an ounce The New york times reports.
