A television documentary screened last night in Norway showed the
shocking long-term effects of a vaccine recently injected into one
million healthy New Zealand children.

The documentary, ‘The Vaccine Experiment – In The Service of Good’
has sparked an outcry against a meningococcal vaccine trial in Norway.

The documentary presents compelling evidence of serious adverse
effects resulting from the ‘parent’ Norwegian vaccine and New
Zealand’s experimental MeNZB vaccine. The film reveals a remarkable
trail of lies and deceit by meningococcal vaccine officials and
researchers in Norway and New Zealand.

Connie Barr, a Norwegian TV personality who made ‘enlistment’ films
for the original vaccine trial, hosts the film. It outlines her change
of heart as the evidence of medical misadventure began to build up.

Ms Barr says the films she made in the 80’s to attract youth to
participate in the vaccine experiment had a very strong effect. “The
more I looked into the material, the clearer I saw this was an ugly
story.”

The film features leading medical experts in Norway who heavily
criticize the Norwegian Institute of Public Health for withholding
information on the dangers of the vaccine and the fact those who did
get sick had to fight for years to get compensation.

“The Norwegian situation is so similar to New Zealand’s it is scary,”
says Risk & Policy Analyst Ron Law.

The Norwegian parent vaccine is considered bio-identical to the MeNZB
vaccine — to the extent that Norwegian bridging data was used in lieu
of phase three trials.

Norwegian manufactured vaccine was also used in the majority of the
trials in New Zealand and an unspecified amount was used in the final
rollout.

Researcher/Writer Barbara Sumner Burstyn comments New Zealand seems to
be in a state of denial at the extent of the fraud surrounding the
development and use of the vaccine. “From the highest levels of
government to media and the medical profession, we seem to be
desperate to believe everything is fine with this vaccine, despite
copious evidence to the contrary.”

The documentary reveals that New Zealand officials were warned about
serious long-term adverse effects following the meningococcal vaccine
in 2003. Officials systematically chose to keep quiet about those
serious adverse effects.

“There has clearly been a cover-up by Ministry of Health officials and
advisers that warrants a formal inquiry,” says Ron Law.
