What got me was this part:

...human embryonic kidney cells taken from an electively aborted baby to produce those receptors
So...that means someone ELECTED to become pregnant with a baby destined to be aborted for the sole purpose of this project?
No. Actually they call most procedures elective. So no one did it on purpose for this recipe. The same wording is used for the cell lines that were used to start vaccines years ago.
As a medical transcriptionist, I think I can translate doctor-speak for you here.

Elective means that it was optional, or someones choice, or that it could be "elected" to be done at any time per the patient and not something life threatening or non-optional. Lasix surgery for the eyes would be a great example of elective surgery, appendix surgery is not.

So someone elected to have a fetus they aborted used for "medical" or "scientific" purposes and the big wigs decided which "medical" or "scientific" purpose it would go to?

Sounds wrong to me.

No. The little one was chosen by the company reviewing the health history of the parent, who has no idea that the baby they aborted is being used for this purpose.

The same happened with the cell lines for vaccines. If the parent had the specific disease naturally, then they chose that one for creating the cell lines.

Ok, I feel completely ill now.

Sorry BB - I don't get stuff like that, and I don't mean the Why; I mean the How.

Anyway - I hope you feel better. Didn't mean to bring you down! :hugs

Still working on getting all the leaders onto the private yahoo group.
Seems like a bunch of them do not get the seriousness of this...

Word is leaking out now, that there were many cases of Campy in Anchorage at the same time, but only one family had drunk raw milk.
Confirmed by the ER Dr.

Good thing I do not cuss.
