"Chinese wary of mass measles vaccinations" by Associated Press | September 13, 2010
BEIJING — China’s plans to vaccinate 100 million children and come a step closer to eradicating measles has set off a popular outcry that highlights widening public distrust of the authoritarian government after repeated health scandals.
The rule for the 21st century is that no government is to be trusted.
They no longer represent or work for their people -- if they ever did.
Since the Health Ministry announced the World Health Organization-backed measles vaccination plan last week, authorities have been flooded with queries and Internet bulletin boards have been plastered with messages filled with worry.
I would be, too, after the $wine flu $windle!!
Conspiracy theories saying the vaccines are dangerous have spread by cellphone text message.
Okay, when the LYING, AGENDA-PUSHING PRESS starts HOLLERING "conspiracy theories" you KNOW YOU ARE CLOSE to the TRUTH!!
The ministry has tried to calm the public’s anxieties about the 10-day measles immunization drive, which started Saturday. It has issued statements, rebutted rumors, and held briefings to emphasize the need for the vaccine as well as its safety.
This is what happens when the TRUST is LOST!
WE NO LONGER BELIEVE YOU, GOVERNMENT!
You have SHOWN you do NOT HAVE OUR HEALTH or BEST INTERESTS at HEART!!!
The public skepticism has been covered by state-run media, which noted the lack of trust was about more than vaccines....
Yeah, here in AmeriKa it is also about economy, environment, war, and ANY OTHER TOPIC YOU NAME!!
The NEWSPAPERS and GOVERNMENT LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING HERE!!
Even when they TELL the TRUTH it is TURNED INSIDE-OUT, UPSIDE-DOWN, and BACKWARDS!!
“The lack of trust toward our food and health products was not formed in one day,’’ said the Global Times newspaper. “Repairing the damage and building credibility will take a very long time.’’
Ummm, yeah, like DECADES if EVER!!!!
This is the KIND of THING that DESTROYS NATIONS and EMPIRES!!
In recent years, government agencies have dragged their feet or withheld information about the spread of SARS, bird flu, and, last month, an outbreak of cholera....
AmeriKa is a MASTER at that!!
Milk products contaminated with industrial chemicals are still turning up despite a scandal two years ago in which tainted infant formula sickened 300,000 babies and killed at least six.
Yup, NOTHING EVER CHANGES despite the "NEWS!"
Fueling worries about the measles vaccine were media reports in March that vaccines for encephalitis, hepatitis B, and other diseases possibly killed four children and seriously sickened dozens in one province.
Yeah, they are called TAINTED VACCINES and YOU KNOW NOTHING of what is in that tube!
But JUST BELIEVE YOUR GOVERNMENT as it STERILZES YOU and MAKES YOU SICK!!
Also see: Government collusion in human medical experiments no longer just a conspiracy theory
Now roll up that sleeve!
The Health Ministry said an investigation found that those vaccines were improperly stored but that subsequent illnesses were unrelated. Many remain unconvinced.
What, they don't believe their lying government?
--more--"
