August 29, 2010 - As the flu season quickly approaches doctors are encouraging parents to vaccinate their infants, children, and teens with the H1N1 flu vaccine – but is it safe? The vaccines are being recalled in Europe.

Kids and teens receiving the H1N1 flu vaccine are showing up in hospitals with fever, vomiting, and seizures at an alarming rate, and with no real evidence that the vaccine even works, Finland has suspended H1N1 vaccines.
Finland’s National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) has suspended the use of the H1N1 vaccine over fears that the shot is linked with a 300 per cent increase in cases of the neurological disorder narcolepsy among children and young people over the last six months.
The Helsinki Times reported that 750 people who have been vaccinated in Finland have experienced harmful effects.
Over the past year neurologists in both Finland and Sweden have noted an increase in child narcolepsy cases, and suspect that this could be a harmful side effect of the swine flu vaccine.
Narcolepsy is a nervous system disorder characterized by extreme fatigue and daytime sleepiness. It indicates a serious malfunction of the brain and nervous system.
Finland is reporting that narcolepsy is appearing in children immediately after they receive the H1N1 vaccine.
According to The Epoch Times, so far six children have been diagnosed of suffering the neurological side effect and nine more are in the process of being confirmed.
They’re not the only ones. The same thing happened in Australia where officials knew for two weeks that children were getting sick with fever, vomiting, and convulsions. Yet they continued to encourage parents with infants, children, and teens to be vaccinated with H1N1.
In one case a mother said just hours after her infant received the H1N1 vaccine she found him in his crib vomiting and having a seizure. He could not cry, she said, it was the worst experience of her life.
When the baby’s mother, Bea Flint, took her baby to the hospital she was told by the doctor that her baby was the fifth child with similar symptoms admitted to the hospital that day.
It took two weeks for Australian health authorities to ban the vaccines.
Two weeks of children coming to hospitals with convulsions and, as the Natural News pointed out, while dozens of children were experiencing convulsions, who knows how many thousands actually may have been harmed in other ways.
Sweden’s Medical Products Agency launched an investigation of their own on August 19. They are trying to determine the cause of post-vaccination narcolepsy also found in children there.
According to The Natural News, the vaccines seem to be causing a pattern of neurological disorders affecting children and teens across the planet.
There’s no proof they’re even effective
The H1N1 swine flu vaccines and seasonal flu vaccines have been linked to seizures and other neurological disorders, and have resulted in some children and teens being paralyzed or even killed.
There is no scientific evidence whatsoever, The Natural News reported, that the vaccines are safe or effective. They’ve never been subjected to double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, which are the considered “gold standard” of scientific investigation.
There is evidence that most of the people who get sick from the flu are those who have been vaccinated because the vaccines actually weaken the immune system and increase the risk of future infections.
The Natural News reported that a study published in the journal PLoS revealed that seasonal flu vaccination actually increases the risk of H1N1 swine flu infections ("Does Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Increase the Risk of Illness with the 2009 A/H1N1 Pandemic Virus?" Viboud C, Simonsen L (2010) PLoS Med 7(4): e1000259).
Increasing reports of neurological side effects linked to the vaccines should raise serious questions about the reasoning behind any mass-vaccination program.
Children seem to suffer more than adults when it comes to vaccines. It is children who are ending up in hospitals, convulsing with seizures or suffering narcolepsy.
The Natural News reported that children could be protected from the seasonal flu with vitamin D, but the medical industry is not recommending vitamin D for children.
Vaccines remain the prescription for everyone; even as children around the world are suffering the consequences.

Wow, 9 kids had narcolepsy symptoms after taking the vaccine! Last year, 100s of thousands DIED from the flu. But lets all freak out about how much worse the vaccine is - after all 9 kids is a much larger number than 100s of thousands.
I can see what you mean about the whole 9 kids to 100 kids, but my daughter had the H1N1 back in October of last year and has not stopped seizing. She is in status epilepticus , which is a seizure that never stops, 24 hours a day 365 days a year. Im a single mom getting no assistance from the government., so I understand how the other side feels as well. When its your child that 1/100 is more important because your the one who has to suffer. Seeing her suffer with her deteriorating condition,,I think is far worse than getting the flu.
An obvious exaggeration of the numbers who die from the flu. They don't know how many people die annually from the flu because they typically do not autopsy each individual who dies that is suspected of having the flu. The autopsy is typically done at the request of the family and not the physician. At best they are guessing how many die each year. Get your facts straight. You obviously need to do more research. Any effect is problematic as far as I am concerned. I am 43 years old and have never had the flu shot and have only contracted the flu one time. I did not even seek medical care and am still here today to respond to this ridiculous comment. God gave you an immune system so use it. Don't let big Pharma with their fear campaigns allow you to minimize these types of effects. Big Pharma is afraid that more people are finding out about the negative side effects of vaccination and can share them in this forum along with many others. Additionally, they have been "immunized" legally by the government. So if they manage to F$!k you up, they are protected. Get the picture!
Where is your proof 100's of kids died from H1N1?
It isn't even the beginning of vaccination season, so 9 people in a short time, when hardly anyone is getting vaccinated yet IS A BIG DEAL. Not to mention vaccinations have been linked to obesity and autism in children, two other very serious issues.
Maybe if people spent more time actually worrying about being healthy, eating right, and taking preventative measures to getting sick, such as Vitamin D, instead of relying on an easy way out, vaccinations, this wouldn't even be an article.
Well, I'm a kidney transplant recipient and had my son, age 14, vacinated today for H1N1 + Seasonal Flu to help protect me from dying....guess what?! He's now got a 102 temp 12 hours after the shot. So, after reading this article I'm not sure I want to go to sleep for fear of what comes next!
And comment to the last post, being healthy has nothing to do with it when idiots out there spread the flu by leaving their homes when they are contagious and going to work! Their is NOTHING I can do as a preventative measure unless I put myself in a bubble....I'm sure you would like that kind of life! I risk getting the flu by being around those who have recently gotten the FluMist as it is a Live vaccine. Vitamin D is not a for sure help against H1N1 either, POSSIBLY only seasonal flu.
My child suffered "seizure like activity" which started < 24 hours after receiving the flu shot and continued for months. No doctor would not acknowledge the connection between the vaccination and the symptoms. It was very real to me and I am not comfortable for any of my family taking the flu vaccine after that experience. However, now my employer (i work in a hospital) is requiring that all employees be vaccinated which seems very unfair. What are my rights here????

My eight grandchildren got the H1N1 vaccination last November (2009), three weeks later at the end of November, one of my grandsons experienced a high temp and seizure like activity. In the following few months, he experienced two more. He has been a normally healthy 3 year old, who was subjected to all the testings (EEG, CAT Scan), along with perception activities, for determining epilepsy and all have come back normal (negative), can not find any reasons for these seizures. So until they can find a reason, he has to be on an anti-seizure medication for at least three years, seizure free before having him taken off the drug. Is there a connection, I believe so.
You have the right "connection" if you will. Have shot....need medication either over the counter or prescription. That is three for one. Cost of shot, cost of doctors visit and cost for medication. You add it up. It is all about the dollar and that does not make sense. Use your natural immunity and not man made immunity.
I recieved a flu shot this last month (including the vaccination for H1N1) and within minutes passed out and had a seizure. I have read that this has been common in children recently, but I am 20 years old. While I cannot say for sure that the vaccine was the cause, I have never had a seizure in my life before this point. It was a frightening experience. I am undecided about whether I will ever get one again. (I might also add that I had not gotten a flu vaccine before, but neither had I ever gotten the flu.)
Just reporting that 41 children in Finland have been found with narcolepsy now, related to H1N1 vaccinations. The average annual being 3 children. Terveyden ja hyvinvoinnin laitos (THL) is still investigating the connection between the narcolepsy cases and the vaccine.
Ihave a eleven year daughter who received the H1N1 shot about 3 weeks before her tenth birthday, a few days later she began to vomit, later that day she began to have runny bowels I gave Tylenol and pedilyte, after the stomach virus didn't leave for a few days I took her to the emergency room where they gave fluids and sent her home, but still nothing changes. My daughter remained sick for about three weeks total before I found her in the bathroom floor seizing, my child whom was otherwise very healthy kid was lying in the bathroom floor with urine soaked clothes and banging her head on the floor. All due to the H1N1
