In conjunction with NaturalNews, the non-profit Consumer Wellness Center (www.ConsumerWellness.org) has publicly offered a $10,000 reward for any person, company or institution who can provide trusted, scientific evidence proving that any of the FDA-approved H1N1 vaccines being offered to Americans right now are both safe and effective. Vaccine promoters keep citing their "science" in claiming that H1N1 vaccines are safe and effective. NaturalNews and the CWC ask one simple question: Where is this science?

Running two phase three trials costs about 4 million dollars, and takes two years.

The method of production of these vaccines has been shown to be effective (the H1N1 vaccine is made the same way all other flu vaccines are made, only the DNA of the viruses is different).

I could offer $10,000 for scientific proof that a particular batch of Coca Cola was "safe" and demand two phase three trials, and never have to pay a dime, because no-one is going to run that test.

This "offer" is two faced.

HA! I just read the rest of it. Demanding that that money not come from corporate sources makes it literally impossible. No granting institution would expend that much money on a settled issue.

Step 1: Offer what appears to be a large monetary reward demanding evidence of a set of studies costing millions of dollars.

Step 2: Set impossibly high funding standards.

Step 3: ???

Step 4: Prove vaccines are EVIL!

Step 5: Create business selling homeopathic medicine (ie water).

Step 6: PROFIT!

Step 7: MILLIONS DEAD IN WHOOPING COUGH OUTBREAK.

It's a bogus award, yeah. You'd spend a lot more money obtaining the proof than you'd ever get for "winning." "Safety" and "effectiveness" are also not universally-defined concepts. No drug is 100% safe, nor vaccine, nor activity. You could always point to the outlier as proof something isn't safe.

The real issue with vaccines is risk vs. reward. Shall we risk it, as the general public, just to avoid what FOR MOST PEOPLE is a case of the sniffles with a high fever along for the ride?
