Swine Flu Vaccine Causes Narcolepsy among Children
Recent health news revealed that narcolepsy is a possible adverse reaction of the Pandemrix flu vaccination.
According to reports given to the Swedish Medical Products Agency, teenage children developed narcolepsy symptoms 1 to 2 months after getting the H1N1 vaccination.
Narcolepsy: Would You Like to Sleep Your Life Away?
Narcolepsy is a mysterious and incurable neurological condition that causes you to fall into a deep sleep. Your brain becomes unable to regulate sleep-wake cycles normally, so you can fall asleep at any point during the day.
Narcolepsy spells can last between a few seconds to several minutes. In some instances, you might stay asleep for an hour or longer.
Narcolepsy not only impacts your quality of life, but it can also put you in danger since you have no control when the narcoleptic attacks occur. 70% of narcolepsy incidents also involve cataplexy, or the sudden loss of voluntary muscle control, along with total paralysis and vivid hallucinations at the start or end of your narcoleptic attack.
Children who become afflicted with narcolepsy experience worse symptoms two to three decades after the symptoms first appear. The earlier these symptoms manifest, the worse the effects.
Europe Alarmed by Vaccine-Related Narcoleptic Attacks
Around 30 million people in the European Union received the Pandemrix flu vaccine. Pandemrix, GlaxoSmithKline’s H1N1 vaccine, has been used since September 2009 in European countries.
Sweden purchased 18 million doses, enough for its population of 9.3 million to receive the flu vaccine twice. But recently, Sweden and Finland reported that young patients suddenly developed an abnormal sleeping disorder after receiving the Pandemrix vaccine.
As of August 28, the Sweden Medical Products Agency 12 cases of vaccine-related narcolepsy among children were reported. Six of these cases involved children 12 to 16 years old, with symptoms appearing 4 to 8 weeks after getting the flu vaccine.
Finland suspended Pandemrix use when their children started showing narcoleptic symptoms at an unusual rate.
In France, six cases of narcolepsy with cataplexy have also been reported. According to the French magazine Le Figaro, three adults and three children who were vaccinated with two different swine flu vaccines, developed sleeping disorders.
In total, 27 cases of narcolepsy have been reported across Europe. All of these occurred weeks after receiving the H1N1 vaccine.
Swine Flu Vaccine Also Caused Febrile Seizures
In Australia, the seasonal flu vaccine program was suspended when children aged 5 years old and younger showed abnormal side effects within 12 hours after getting the vaccine. These side effects included seizure and high fevers. A one-year old child even went into coma after getting vaccinated.
On July 30th, The Australian Department of Health resumed seasonal flu vaccinations after discovering that the side effects were caused by the vaccine Fluvax, manufactured by CSL. They advised parents to use other flu vaccine brands on the market.
Protect Yourself from This Year’s Flu Plan
This season’s flu vaccine is said to be more potent, combining both the regular flu and swine flu vaccines. The CDC announced that every American must get the flu shot, despite reports from other countries about the harmful side effects of the vaccine. The expected flu vaccine this year is more reactive, bringing with it more harmful side effects, including narcolepsy.
Dr. Mercola advises that you avoid getting the flu vaccine and switch to natural methods to ward off the flu instead, such as optimizing your vitamin D levels. Many studies have shown that vitamin D is a potent preventive measure against colds and influenza.
Aside from proper sun exposure and safe tanning beds, Dr. Mercola recommends vitamin D supplementation to optimize your vitamin D levels. It’s important that you undergo the 25(OH)D or 25-hydroxyvitamin D blood test to first determine your vitamin D levels, and to keep them within the healthy range during supplementation.
On November 1 to 6, Dr. Mercola and the National Vaccine Information Center will launch Vaccine Awareness Week.
Stay tuned to get more important natural health news about vaccine safety.
