I was under the impression it took a very long time to create a vaccine and test it and so on. This seems to be happening so fast. There cant be much of a clinical trial if any at all. If they insist, or even offer, a vaccine with no clinical trial I would think it was because they believe the risk of a faulty vaccine is minimal compared to the risk of no vaccine.
Either way, I think someone is going to make a lot of money off of this...and it wont be the people who need it.
A U.S. Supreme Court decision has just given drug companies total liability protection for injuries and deaths caused by government mandated vaccines. The National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) called the decision a "betrayal" of the American consumer.
Remember that big Pharma can't be held accountable.

Well that leaves me with some wonderful options now.
Assume the position and get inoculated, catch Ebola or barricade myself in the house? At this point I don't know which is worse anymore.

(NYSE: DNB) is an American public company headquartered in Short Hills, a community in Millburn, New Jersey, USA that provides commercial data to businesses on credit history, business-to-business sales and marketing, counterparty risk exposure, supply chain management, lead scoring and social identity matching.
Often referred to as D&B, the company’s database contains information on more than 235 million companies across 200 countries worldwide. Dun & Bradstreet has been listed on the Fortune 500 and was one of the first companies to be publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
Copper Development Corporation (“CDC”) has announced that it is suspending drilling at Basay to facilitate more extensive analysis and study the results and geology of the deposit.
This is a standard procedure in major drilling programmes and, with 71 holes completed for 34,002m of drilling, this can only be described as a substantial project, which remains open at depth and along strike.
We emphasise that this decision was NOT taken because CDC is running out of money. Our modelling indicated it will have about $14M of cash on hand at the end of 2012 and no need to borrow or raise additional capital this year.

Dear jude11,
Sure thing, I'd be happy to. First, lets try the Dun and Bradstreet question. Time for our "go to" source, Wiki.

OK, what about "CDC?"

BUT, I MADE A MISTAKE. It isn't traded on the New York Stock Exchange, but the London Stock Exchange, sorry.
It seemed to me that it would help if I looked up the symbols on every stock exchange, just in case there was another CDC. I went to the Yahoo Finance stock symbol "looker upper," and found this:

Well of course, that Compass thingy looks interesting, as it's the only "CDC" without "add ons." Sticking with Yahoo Finance, I found this.

And when you go to the CDC website, you'll find they have a .gov site and control by other government agencies.
I think I'm going to stick with the "pulling your leg" claim. Especially since that's one of the things that your website DIDN'T footnote or reference anywhere.

Dear jude11,
Thanks for the Maximus information, I had never heard of them. Running through the article you used as a source, I see that they are a government contractor. They are hired by HHS to provide administrative support to their programs. There doesn't seem to be any connection at all between Maximus and decision making anywhere, certainly not at CDC.

a vaccine with no clinical trial I would think it was because they believe the risk of a faulty vaccine is minimal compared to the risk of no vaccine.
