Gates Foundation Funds Surveillance of Anti-Vaccine GroupsSayer Ji, Contributor But where has all the money actually gone? Towards developing and implementing water purification and sanitation systems? Or basic nutritional support aimed at optimizing immune function? How about providing shelter and medical facilities for the homeless? Not even close. For example, a $100K grant was recently disbursed to Seth C. Kalichman, professor at the Department of Psychology, University of Connecticut, for Establishing an Anti-Vaccine Surveillance and Alert System, which intends to establish an internet-based global monitoring and rapid alert system for finding, analyzing, and counteracting misinformation communication campaignsregarding vaccines to support global immunization efforts. [emphasis added] We can only wonder what organizations might be labeled as misinformation communication campaigns considering the fact that Bill Gates, in a Feb. 4th, 2011 interview on CNN with Sanjay Gupta said that anti-vaccine groups kill children.' Here is the full quote: So its an absolute lie that has killed thousands of kids. Because the mothers who heard that lie, many of them didnt have their kids take either pertussis or measles vaccine, and their children are dead today. And so the people who go and engage in those anti-vaccine efforts you know, they, they kill children. Its a very sad thing, because these vaccines are important. Moreover, it is exceedingly difficult to view Bill Melinda Gates foundations GCGH as a strictly humanitarian foundation considering many of the projects it chooses to fund. Here are a few listed on their website which have already received funding. You will notice from the examples listed above that all of these funded projects involve the development of proprietary (read: potentially profitable) and as-of-yet unproven technologies, and which will require the transformation and/or alteration of a natural process or substance. Also, many of the grant disbursements have gone towards contraception. This appears to diverge from the GCGHs mission statement of improving health in the developing world, insofar as it is focused onreducing population in the developed world, rather than supporting the health of those alreadyliving, in need of help.
