From the Village Voice comes an article titled, "Injecting Big Brother" which discusses new antidrug vaccines from pharmaceutical companies and biotech labs.Looks like we are soon going to have vaccines for cocaine, PCP, nicotine and other substances, and if the pharmaceutical companies have their way, these will be added to our children's regular schedule of vaccinations. (That would still be none for most reading this article) An interesting point brought up in the article is who would get a vaccine such as an anti-cocaine injection? According to the article, a Dr. Peter Cohen suggests everybody be vaccinated. In the article he states, "the least controversial solution is universal vaccination: You wouldn't be stigmatizing any one group." [Comment From PROVE: Yes, this man is actually advocating for EVERYONE to get a cocaine vaccine so we won't stigmatize and single out drug addicts - look out for this dangerous philosophy with HIV Vaccines on the horizon! It has been the goal stated publicly by public health officials for a while that all 12 year olds will be targeted. I'm sure the drug companies won't mind the windfall of profits either. These are just some more reasons why we must work to change state laws to guarantee a parent's right to chose whether or not his/her child gets a vaccine on the risks and benefits of each individual vaccine for their INDIVIDUAL child. Dawn] According to the article, Barbara Loe Fisher, president of the National Vaccine Information Center had this to say about antidrug vaccines: "To add a vaccine to the mix that doesn't fit into early-childhood diseases seems amazing," she says. "That we can get a vaccine to solve every social problem is short-term thinking." The Village Voice: Injecting Big Brother
