A summary of the AVN's dealings with Channel 7

I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for your support, your letters, your phone calls and your kindness! I have just written a pretty long synopsis (once I get started, it's hard to stop!) on our dealings with Channel 7.

If you would like to read it, please just visit my Blog where you will find all of the details.

I have also asked everyone to write to both media watch and the SBS Insight program (the contact details are in my blog - linked in the paragraph above) so please, keep the momentum going and shoot off a quick email to let them know that you support free and informed health choices.

Forward this email to a Friend  

 
Were you contacted to appear on the Sunday program?
Mike Munro has said that we were unable to get any families with vaccine-injured children on the program meaning that they just don't exist. We have heard from several families who offered to go onto the show and were initially told that Channel 7 would pay their way down and then, at the last minute, that help was pulled or they just never heard back from the station at all.

If you are one of those people, can you please email Meryl to let her know?

Meryl Dorey - Vaccinations - do they promote healthy children?
Since 1994, Meryl Dorey has run the Australian Vaccination Network (AVN), a national health lobby group that supports everyone's rights to make free and informed health choices when it comes to the issues of vaccination and health. The AVN, via its nationwide support service and its magazine, Living Wisdom, has promoted the idea that good health comes from a loving environment, proper nutrition and healthcare from dedicated natural therapists working in conjunction with medical doctors.

Though Australia currently has the highest vaccination rate on record, it also has the highest ever reported incidence of some diseases such as whooping cough and a larger number of chronically ill children then we have ever seen before. What role does vaccination have to play in society today? Is it responsible - at least in part - for the increase in formerly rare chronic conditions such as diabetes, Autism, ADD, ADHD, asthma, eczema and cancer and how can we as parents ensure that we make the best possible informed choices to keep our children healthy?

Photocopying  Help Wanted...
The response to our last call for help has been - well - underwhelming! So, we are raising the stakes a bit. Please read below:

If you live on the Far North Coast of NSW or at the Gold Coast and have a few hours a fortnight to volunteer, the AVN could really use your help. We are in the process of trying to get all of the thousands of medical journal articles and the historical vaccination data which is currently stored as hard copy scanned so they can be accessed digitally.

This will take a long time but we really need some people who are willing to set aside just a few hours to come to our office and help with this scanning.

You don't need to be experienced with this sort of thing - we will show you how it works and your assistance will be very much appreciated.

Everyone who volunteers will be reimbursed for their time, will get a free membership and subscription and will have our eternal gratitude.

If you would like more information or would like to volunteer, please contact Janiece on 02 6687 1699 or by email at [email protected].

Fear of the InvisibleFear-of-the-Invisible
by Janine Roberts
Second Edition 2009
Pages: 299
157mm W x 235mm H x 20mm T 
 
How scared should we be of Viruses and Vaccines, HIV and AIDS?
An investigative journey into a reckless and contaminated medical industry. We have all been taught to fear viruses and yet scientists are now discovering that they are a fundamental part of life and are made by the millions in all healthy cells. It seems that we may have misjudged the virus and most of them maybe simple inert messages carried from cell to cell. This is a very interesting and controversal book on diseases, vaccines and what Janine calls "vaccine plagues", the emerging plagues caused by medical intervention into previously healthy bodies. Janine exposes the impurity of vaccines and the fraudulent science which is behind may accepted medical treatments. This book is highly recommended reading.
