(Advocates for
Children's Health Affected by Mercury Poisoning)
Action Alert
The online version of
Rolling Stone's "Deadly
Immunity", by Robert F. Kennedy, JR., is already sparking a national debate
on the use of thimerosal, a mercury containing preservative, in vaccines.
The online article can be found at
http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/_/id/7395411.
This debate should be
ratcheted up as the print version hits the newsstands starting today. This
will coincide with the unprecedented, simultaneous release of the article on
Salon.com.
Rolling Stone, released in a few markets on June 15, should be widely
available by this weekend.
Lujene Clark, co-founder of NoMercury and A-CHAMP (Advocates for
Children's Health Affected by Mercury Poisoning), worked extensively with
Mr. Kennedy and his office over the past several weeks in preparing the
article for publication. The print copy will contain a sidebar from Ms.
Clark, providing perspective from her experience as the mother of a
thimerosal-injured child and advocate for removing mercury from vaccines.
A-CHAMP encourages parents to obtain copies of Rolling Stone as soon as they
are available to distribute to legislators and members of the medical
community. Please spread the word to family and friends of Mr.
Kennedy's courageous article appearing simultaneously in Rolling Stone and
on Salon.com.
Do not wait for mainstream media to spread the word! Mr.
Kennedy's scheduled appearances on ABC World News Tonight, 20/20 and his
Thursday, June 16th appearance on Good Morning America have been cancelled
by ABC. Officials at ABC stated their decision to cancel Mr. Kennedy's
appearance on their network is because it is "too politically
controversial."
In our opinion, ABC is more concerned about protecting their huge
advertising revenues from the pharmaceutical industry than reporting news
that could protect pregnant women, infants and children from mercury tainted
vaccines. SHAME ON ABC!
Join us in asking our elected
officials to remove this known neurotoxin from vaccines and to address the
neurodevelopmental damage done to 1 in 6 American children.
