FLUORIDATION VALIDATION

The Unknown Scientific Factor in Fluoridation

By Glen S.R. Walker

We can validate our data but there is no scientific fluoridation validation by Governments, Medical and Dental Associations, N.H. and M.R.C T.G.A. and Universities in their claims of scientific proof of human safety from ingesting sodium silicofluoride or hydrofluorosilicic Acid mixed into drinking water supplies. These two fluoride chemicals used to "Compulsory" fluoridate drinking water supplies are officially classified as a "medicine", a "drug". (Therapeutic Goods Administration - August 2002, Edinburgh High Court 1980).

If officialdom is your required confirmation, please consider the following data, documented in the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council publication 1994, remembering Fluoridation uses a medicine.

"General Guidelines for Medical Practitioners on Providing Information to Patients

The National Health and Medical Research Council

The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) is a statutory body with the portfolio of the Commonwealth Minister for Human Services and Health, established by the National Health and Medical Research Council Act 1992.

The NHMRC advises the Australian community and Commonwealth, State and Territory Governments on standards of individual and public health, and supports research to improve those standards.

The NHMRC advises the Commonwealth Government on the funding of medical and public health research and training in Australia and supports many of the medical advances made by Australians.

The community recognises that patients are entitled to make their own decisions. In order to do so, they must have enough information about their condition, investigation options, treatment options, benefits, possible adverse effects of investigations or treatment, and the likely result if treatment is not undertaken. It is not possible, however, to provide complete information or to predict outcomes or assess risks with certainty, and patients need to be aware of this uncertainty.

There is a community recognition that patients are entitled to make their own decisions about their medical treatment. These decisions will need to be based on information and advice given by the doctor."

The patient - you the consumer of fluoridated water - has never been consulted or examined or your blood tested, by a medical doctor before being medicated with fluoridated water!

High Court of Australia

"The issues discussed will affect everyone at some time in their lives, and it is proposed that the document be circulated widely among health professionals and the general community.

The legal duty of a doctor to give information about medical interventions, especially about material risks, was emphasised by the High Court of Australia in November 1992."

When the High Court of Australia enters the arena of medication (compulsory fluoridation), one could expect an intelligent reaction by our politicians, but they fear "The Party" instructions!

"While it is recognised that these guidelines might be consulted in legal proceedings, it is not their purpose to set mandatory standards of behaviour in giving information. Rather it is to foster better communication between doctor and patient, so that patients are able, with their doctors, to make the best decisions about their medical care."

So, the High Court of Australia is to be ignored!

"This document provides general guidelines outlining information which should normally be given to patients to help them make informed decisions about proposed investigations or treatment. No set of guidelines can cover all the circumstances surrounding relationships between patients and doctors, and these guidelines do not attempt to describe the quality of relationship which should be developed.

WHY?

"In June 1989, the Australian, New South Wales and Victorian Law Reform Commissions published a report entitled 'Informed Decisions about Medical Procedures'. The Victorian Law Reform Commission had earlier begun an inquiry into informed decision making about medical interventions because of the growing recognition that patients should have more information than they had customarily been given to allow them to make decisions about their treatment and because of a lack of clarity in the law concerning information which should be given by doctors to patients.

In 1986 to 1987 the Victorian Law Reform Commission had conducted empirical studies examining doctors' attitudes to, and practices in, giving information to patients, and into patients' experiences and expectations in receiving information from doctors. It was concluded that doctors were giving patients less information than they wanted, and on occasion less than was required to fulfil the common law standard of reasonable care. It was felt that an attitude prevalent among doctors, that the patient's best interests were served if doctors decided what information to give and what treatment was best, needed to change."

Note the final sentence: ... "if doctors decided what information to give and what treatment was best, ..."

Here we have the "centre of care" Compulsory Artificial Fluoridation promotion - the Government deciding what you should consume but failing Common Law and pharmacology.

"Careful and conscientious adherence to the guidelines may on occasion demand extra time (for example, to ensure that key information has been grasped and retained) with attendant cost implications."

The principle of handling correspondence on fluoridation by politicians and other responsible people in privileged positions of trust seems strangely related to "may demand extra time" that mostly extends to the "never never".

"The guidelines reflect the common law right of legally competent patients to make their own decisions about medical treatment, and their right to grant, withhold or withdraw consent before or during examination or treatment. The guidelines do not change the law, nor do they set a mandatory standard."

The only conclusion one can gather from the NH and MRC document is that Common Law relative to people being medicated in a Government Compulsory manner is nothing more than an embarrassing short-term event and medicine by medical examination is of no concern to those directly involved. It is in reality only window dressing, even though it is medically illegal (Common Law).

To expand on the N.H.M.R.C. data it should be noted with serious concern, the information relative to members of the N.H.M.R.C.

"The Council comprises of nominees of Commonwealth, State and Territory health authorities, professional and scientific colleges and associations, unions, universities, business, consumer groups, welfare organisations, conservation groups and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission."

But never a member from those opposing compulsory medication of public drinking water supplies delivered into every home via their kitchen tap.

That would rock the fluoride boat, some occupants may fall overboard!

The Australian Medical Association in their book, "Code of Ethics" state:

"Every patient has the right to expect a complete and thorough examination into his condition and that accurate records will be kept."

Before you were forced to drink fluoridated water, were you medically examined by a doctor, the medicine, fluoridated water, scientifically explained and a guarantee given that there will be no short-term or long-term side effects?

Question

Could it be possible that fluoridation is part of Public Reports in 1999 that "10,000 Killed by Medical Errors", "More than 80,000 hospital admissions each year were caused by medication".

Fluorides are not listed as possibilities BECAUSE fluoride examination of patients blood is a "no, no" in the health world of medicine and human care. If you do not look, you can claim "no evidence".
