Tetanus Vaccine May Be Laced with Anti-Fertility Drug 1995 MAY 29 - (NewsRx.com) -- There is mounting evidence that women in Third World countries are unwittingly being used as guinea pigs in an experiment to test a tetanus vaccine laced with an anti-fertility drug, according to the head of an international pro-life organization. Fr. Matthew Habiger, Ph.D., OSB, president of Human Life International (HLI), Gaithersburg, Maryland, called for a congressional investigation of "reports that millions of women in Mexico and the Philippines have unknowingly received anti-fertility vaccinations under the guise of being inoculated against tetanus." He reports that the governments of Mexico and the Philippines, under the direction of the World Health Organization (WHO), have been conducting the large-scale tetanus vaccination programs. The tetanus vaccinations, ostensibly given to combat neo-natal tetanus infections, also contain human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), a naturally occurring hormone essential for maintaining pregnancy. The laced vaccine results in the formation of antibodies against hCG that will attack subsequent pregnancies. The first discovery that tetanus toxoid vaccines contained the hCG hormone was made in Mexico in the autumn of 1994, when members of the Comite Pro Vida de Mexico (Pro Life Committee of Mexico) became suspicious of the protocols for the Mexican campaign: All males were excluded from the program and only women of reproductive age (15-45) were to be vaccinated. The Comite obtained vials of the tetanus vaccine. When analyzed by chemists they were found to contain hCG hormones as well as the tetanus toxoid. The Mexican Comite, a member of Human Life International's World Council for Life and Family, a global coalition of pro-life/pro-family organizations, alerted HLI about the tetanus vaccine. HLI in turn reported the facts to its World Council members and HLI affiliates in more than 60 countries throughout the world. Soon, additional reports of tetanus toxoid vaccines laced with hCG hormones began to trickle in from the Philippines, where more than 3.4 million women were recently vaccinated against tetanus. Similar reports of hCG hormones being found in tetanus vaccine came from Nicaragua, which conducted its own vaccination campaign in 1993. Habiger, summed up the known facts concerning the tetanus toxoid vaccination campaigns in Mexico and the Philippines. Only women are vaccinated, and only the women between the ages of 15 and 45. (In Nicaragua the age range was 12-49). "But aren't men at least as likely as young women to come into contact with tetanus? And what of the children, including females? Aren't they also at risk? Why are these groups excluded from the vaccination campaigns?" asked Habiger. Human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) hormone has been found in the vaccines. "It does not belong there," Habiger noted. "In the parlance of the 0.J. Simpson trial, the vaccine has been 'contaminated.'" The vaccination protocols call for multiple injections - three within three months and a total of five altogether. "But, since tetanus vaccinations provide protection for 10 years or more, why are multiple inoculations called for?" Habiger asked. The WHO, the driving force behind the vaccination campaigns, has been actively involved for 20 years in the development of an anti-fertility vaccine utilizing hCG tied to tetanus toxoid as a carrier - the exact same coupling as has been found in the Mexican-Philippine-Nicaragua vaccines. Allied with the WHO in the development of an anti-fertility vaccine (AFV) utilizing hCG with tetanus and other carriers, have been the United Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the World Bank, the Population Council, the Rockefeller Foundation, the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, and a number of universities, including Uppsala, Helsinki, and Ohio State. The U.S. National Institute of Child Health (NICH) and Human Development of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, Maryland, was the supplier of the hCG hormone in some of the AFV experiments. "At the moment, we only know the basic facts," said Page 2 Habiger, "but things look mighty suspicious that massive campaigns may be underway to vaccinate women against future pregnancies. If that is in fact the case the situation is absolutely unconscionable, with the women victims being treated as nothing more than uninformed, unwitting, unconsenting guinea pigs." "The appropriate Congressional offices are being made aware of this situation," Habiger said. "At this point we feel there is enough evidence to warrant an independent investigation. If the allegations are true, Congress should issue the strongest possible public condemnation of such massive human rights violations and impose sanctions, including a cutoff of funding to the UN agencies and other parties involved."
