Dear Diary
My intent was to gather up all the information I have to give to Alex Jones showing why we should be very concerned about that woman's phone call - and why there is a hell of a lot to worry about because the people who are running our government at the administrative level are not "our friends". I started out by rounding up information about Dr. John Agwunobi.
I first took notice of John Agwunobi when he was testifying to the Senate in a hearing in about 2005. I was half paying attention up until the point when Senator Spector started questioning Agwunobi on his written statement where he wrote something about "not showing good faith" and Spector wanted to know what he meant. As I recall, Spector said that the Congress had allocated about $4 billion towards national planning for a pandemic. The request had apparently been for an amount in the vicinity of $15 billion. Back then, a billion was a lot of money. $4 billion was a stunning amount for "planning" and for a federal employee to tell the Congress that they weren't showing good faith struck a sour note. So I started watching the hearing. As I listened to the questions and Agwunobi's answers following, I thought to myself - this guy - Agwunobi is not a doctor. I don't know what's going on - they're calling him a doctor but for several of the questions, Dr. Julie Gerberding of the CDC had to answer for Agwunobi. So I did a search on Agwunobi.
It turns out that Agwunobi was in Florida employed by the Public Health Department when the anthrax attacks occurred. The day after his appointment, he was called upon to investigate the first anthrax attack. Recall that Florida was already in a state of emergency prior to 9-11. That's mighty coincidental - although circumstantial. Agwunobi is from Nigeria and he allegedly earned his degree in Public Health from Johns-Hopkins. There are other things about Agwunobi that didn't sit well with me - but after doing some reading, I thought I'd get back to him sometime in the future to write a webpage about him. Then Dr. Elias Zerhouni came into my sights after watching the National Governor's Association conference and hearing a presentation on the eHealth Initiative. After watching that program and doing audio recordings of it, I wrote this webpage:
IBM and Dr. Mengele - Together Again
In researching the telemedicine part of it, I found Dr. Elias Zerhouni. Dr. Zerhouni was the Director of the National Institutes of Health. Prior to that, he was at Johns-Hopkins University working on a telemedicine system to outsource radiology - putting American radiologists out of business - same as American software professionals and engineers. Dr. Zerhouni was from Algeria - immigrated here in the 1980's.
At this point, I'm not liking seeing all of the foreign names in our public health system - many of whom seem to be connected to Johns-Hopkins and/or the Public Health System. I did one search and got a directory of employees (and contractors ) for the CDC or CMS - can't recall which - but it was pages and pages of foreign names - mostly from India and Muslim countries (lots of Ahmed's).
At this point, I'm at the OH SHIT! stage. The traitors running our government have not only replaced American software professionals and engineers with imported visa workers, they've imported people to work in our national laboratories - working with the world's deadliest substances. Hey-Soos!
After doing the story on the eHealth Initiative, I started researching the initiative for nationalized medical records.. which led me to the global information infrastructure... which led me to ultimately do the story on the Human Genome Project. You'll notice there is a section in the Human Genome Project document that I called "Pandora's Box". The Genome Data Base was originally kept at Johns-Hopkins and they made the genome information public - for anybody to download and use. At this point, I'm at the HOLY SHIT! stage.
Nationalized Medical Records
Global
Information Infrastructure
You'll also notice in the Human Genome Project document that I found
other information on the telemedicine system - as well as the Texas TMAP
project - and how Ely Lilly was sued and how the game plan for the U.S.
Health Care System is to refocus the system on "wellness" - using
doctors only for triage - sick ones here, healthy ones here; and
to use substandard providers for the sick ones (Nurse Practitioners and
Physicians Assistants) who will use a computerized decision support
system TO MAKE MEDICAL DECISIONS! OMG!
And do you remember the contaminated Heparin that killed at least 60 people? A friend of mine who writes the Job Destruction Newsletter wrote this story:
"Remember all the news coverage about the deaths caused by a tainted anti-coagulant drug called heparin? There were lots of news stories, but I'll bet most of you forgot about it. I know I did. Perhaps the news about heparin stopped getting national coverage because of who got caught, and who got away. A scandal involving an Indian CEO and at least several Indian employees has resulted in indictments in North Carolina. Dushyant Patel, who is the CEO of AM2PAT, masterminded the fraudulent scheme that involved shipping tainted syringes of heparin. A criminal case was launched last spring after the falsified reports were discovered.
The plant manager, Aniruddha Patel, and the quality control director, Ravindra Sharma, were sentenced to 4.5 years in federal prison Monday for their participation. The Indian men, in the United States legally with work visas, said they feared they would lose their jobs and their U.S. residencies if they didn't go along with Dushyant Patel's scheme. Dushyant Patel won't be serving any prison time unless India finds him and allows extradition. That's because Patel fled the U.S. before he could be arrested. Supposedly Interpol is involved in what is described as an international manhunt to find Patel. I have read dozens of news reports and a press release from the Dept. of Justice, but haven't seen a single explanation about how Patel escaped from the U.S. The silence on Patel looks like a cover-up by several branches of our government that have bungled the AM2PAT case for a very long time."
FDA ignored debris in syringes
Complaints of filth came in 2005; plant's microbiologist was a teenage dropout"Conditions at the plant, detailed in court documents and photographs,
depict a facility in flagrant violation of proper manufacturing processes.
Prosecutor Jason Cowley said the company's "chief microbiologist" was a
teenager who dropped out of high school (country of origin of the teenager
isn't being revealed). A key piece of laboratory equipment designed to
catch evidence of contamination was broken, and another gauge was out of
commission for a year. The so-called clean room, where air is carefully
controlled to reduce the spread of germs, was ventilated with an ordinary
room fan."Dr. Dushyant Patel, FACR-MRI Professional Board Certified Radiologist
Staff Radiologist for Meridian Regional Imaging. A longstanding member of the Chicago radiological community, Dr. Patel performed his diagnostic radiology residency at Michael Reese Hospital, followed by a fellowship in Neuroradiology at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. After holding several academic appointments at both the University of Chicago, and the University of Illinois, Dr. Patel became Medical Director at the Advanced Medical Imaging Center, one of the first ourpatient imaging centers offering MRI in Chicago, Illinois. Dr. Patel received his CAQ in Neuroradiology in 1995, and established himself as an American College of Radiology Fellow in 1996. Dr. Patel is a Board Certified by the American Board of Radiology.

And when I was checking links for the Job Destruction Newsletter (not all are active anymore), I found this story from Australia. Apparently we are exporting the previously imported foreign fake medical professionals:
US Doc Faces Charges in 13 Aussie Deaths
(Newser) – An American doctor faces charges of negligence and manslaughter in 13 patient deaths in an Australian hospital, AP reports. Dr. Jayant Patel, former head of surgery in a state-run Queensland hospital, failed to disclose disciplinary measures taken against him by medical boards in both New York and Oregon. Patel faces a life sentence if convicted of the charges against him, which include three counts of manslaughter.
The "unacceptable level of care" on Patel's watch contributed directly to patient deaths, according to government documents. In one case, a woman's surgical wound fell apart, exposing her intestines. In another, a major blood vessel to a man's heart was cut during a basic procedure, causing him to bleed to death, according to authorities. Patel was extradited from his Oregon home for the hearings in Australia.
US NRI Dr. Jayant Patel faces criminal charges-hearing started today in Australia
Ross Martin QC, prosecutor told the court:
Dr. Patel spent most of his career working the United States after graduating from medicine in India.
Between 1989- l 2001, Dr. Patel worked in Oregon hospital and there were number of complaints about Patel's conduct.
Oregon Medical Review Board ruled that he could not perform surgery on certain parts of the body which related to the abdominal area including the pancreas and the liver.
Dr. Jayant Patel was found guilty of misconduct in his role at the Oregon hospital, and his licence was suspended in 2001
And of course, we have the recent story of an American (allegedly) pharmaceutical company manufacturing in Austria that sent out vaccine to three neighboring countries that was contaminated with Bird Flu. Fortunately the Czechs must be on to this global game of Russian Roulette with health care so only a few ferrets died and no people:
Baxter Sent Bird Flu Virus to European Labs by Error
Feb. 24 (Bloomberg) -- Baxter International Inc. in Austria unintentionally contaminated samples with the bird flu virus that were used in laboratories in three neighboring countries, raising concern about the potential spread of the deadly disease.
The contamination was discovered when ferrets at a laboratory in the Czech Republic died after being inoculated with vaccine made from the samples early this month. The material came from Deerfield, Illinois-based Baxter, which reported the incident to the Austrian Ministry of Health, Sigrid Rosenberger, a ministry spokeswoman, said today in a telephone interview.
“This was infected with a bird flu virus,” Rosenberger said. “There were some people from the company who handled it.”
The material was intended for use in laboratories, and none of the lab workers have fallen ill. The incident is drawing scrutiny over the safety of research using the H5N1 bird flu strain that’s killed more than three-fifths of the people known to have caught the bug worldwide. Some scientists say the 1977 Russian flu, the most recent global outbreak, began when a virus escaped from a laboratory.
The virus material was supposed to contain a seasonal flu virus and was contaminated after “human error,” said Christopher Bona, a spokesman for Baxter, in a telephone interview.
And just the other day when I was gathering some info for my series - "War in the Context of Everything else", I was writing about a hearing I watched on C-Span at the time it was broadcast so I went out and found the information on it:
On March 7, 2007, the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions held a hearing titled, "Strengthening American Competitiveness for the 21st Century in which Bill Gates was the only witness. He was there to testify that the U.S. system of issuing visas for imported workers was hampering the ability of U.S. corporations to "compete" and that the visa system should be eliminated and corporations should be allowed an unlimited ability to import human commodities.
The following is an excerpt from the transcript of that hearing. Both the transcript and the video of the hearing are available on the Committee websiteQuestioner is Senator Allard:
Let me quickly go into another subject. Mary Robinson, President of Ireland, head of the World Health Organization, met with a number of us. She's very concerned about just this brain drain to the United States, particularly in health, in health professions. She pointed out that the flow, for example, at a time when we have eight or nine applications for every nursing slot in my State of Massachusetts at community colleges, we can get one applicant that can take it, because we don't have the training facilities, we don't have the professors for the training of nurses. And we're considering an amendment on the floor now on the homeland security bill to increase the number of nurses on this.
Now, here are some of the countries. Nigeria, we have 2,500 doctors here from Nigeria, and 8,900 nurses. From South Africa, we have 1,950 doctors, 877 nurses. In Kenya, HIV rate, 15 percent, 865 doctors, 765 nurses. Ghana, HIV rate, doctors, 850, 2,100 nurses on this. Her point was, they--many of these countries around the world, so many of these doctors and the nurses, health professionals that are so vital, in terms-- trying to deal with the challenges of healthcare, are here in the United States--are coming to the United States, working in the United States. This is costing these countries--they're training these people. It's an outlay for--training them. How do we balance this, versus what you've said about, sort of, the openendedness, in terms of having skilled people be able to come into the United States? What's really the--where do we--where do we really begin to draw the line? When do we say, ``Well, we're going to try and invest more to develop more opportunities for Americans to become nurses, Americans to become the doctors of''--we have qualified people that don't get into our great medical schools or to our nursing. But what's the balance in there?
At this point, I'm at OMFG!
So... after calming myself by watching a video of D.U.M.B.s Deep Underground Military Bases, I'm now ready to document what precipitated this Dear Diary rant:
Dr. John Agwunobi and Community Health Centers Recovered PDF:
WINTER GARDEN, Fla . . Florida Department of Health Secretary Dr. John O. Agwunobi visited Community Health Center's Winter Garden Family and Children's Health Center on Friday, August 1, 2003. The purpose of Dr. Agwunobi's visit was to talk with patients about issues of access to medical services and to physicians about the impact of the malpractice crisis. Dr. Agwonubi has been a supporter of the State's health centers and was able to see first-hand the services offered by Community Health Centers, Inc.
Community Health Centers, Inc. is a private, nonprofit organization that provides primary and preventive medical, dental and pharmaceutical services at eight practice locations throughout Central Florida. These include the Apopka Family and Children's Health Centers, Pine Hills Family Health Center, Winter Garden Family and Children's Health Centers, Eatonville Family Health Center, South Lake Family Health Center and Leesburg Community Health Center. During 2003, over 33,000 patients received care at Community Health Center sites. CHC provides care to everyone who walks in their doors - insured, uninsured and underinsured alike; providing services on a sliding fee scale at all centers, accepting Medicaid and Medicare patients, and accepting over 80 private insurance and managed care plans.
Agwunobi Goes to Walmart Recovered PDF
June 10, 2008 | WASHINGTON—In the realm of health IT, Wal-Mart Stores is aiming far beyond its participation in the Dossia personal health records (PHR) project. The Bentonville, Ark., retail behemoth seeks to become a catalyst for interoperability by paying attention to customer convenience.
Wal-Mart already has made clear its intent to open 400 in-store health clinics by 2010, up from the current 70. “These clinics are like Trojan horses,” John Agwunobi, president of Wal-Mart health and wellness business unit, said here Monday in a keynote address to the midyear Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Summit.
He said an electronic health record (EHR) not only will link all 400 clinics, it will serve as a main source of data for the Dossia PHR for Wal-Mart’s 2 million U.S. employees. “More importantly, our vision is that your electronic health record will connect electronically with your own medical home,” Agwunobi said at this small, focused meeting that is the polar opposite of the mammoth wintertime HIMSS annual conference.
According to Agwunobi, 55 percent of patients who visit Wal-Mart clinics lack health insurance. “This interaction with our clinic is how they find medical homes,” he said.
Above all, health care must engage consumers, said Agwunobi, a pediatrician who is a former assistant secretary in the Department of Health and Human Services and an admiral in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. “We think we can do that with the personal health record,” he said.
Wal-Mart’s goal is to provide a “robust” PHR to its U.S. workforce employees by 2010. “Our goal is also to make those 2 million associates advocates for PHRs.”
Agwunobi argued that so many people in health IT focus on one piece of technology in isolation and lose sight of larger goals. “So few people really have a clear picture of what we’re trying to get to,” he said.
He suggested that health IT professionals should understand that they are doing more than simply installing an EHR, e-prescribing, or back-office management system. “The true power is what it looks like 20 years from now, five, 10, 20 iterations later,” Agwunobi said.
And the conversation needs to include all stakeholders in health care, not just health IT insiders. “One of the barriers is that we talk amongst ourselves,” he told the HIMSS gathering. “I learned from retail that the most important person is the customer, the patient.”
Agwunobi said he knew health care had some problems, but had no idea how badly the system was broken until he took the Wal-Mart job last September and saw how efficient a major retail operation could be.
Isn't that great? You can run to the store and get a gallon of milk and a pap smear in a one-stop. And an employee can get that nasty boil lanced during lunch hour. Ugh!
Joking (?) aside, I have to assume that regardless of whether or not his medical degree is fake, he surely has had enough education to know what a Trojan Horse is. This does not bode well.
Referring back to the documentation I did on the Human Genome Project, at the end of the paper, you will find that I traced the links of a clinic in Northern Idaho that has a rather disturbing history - and links that lead to the Robert Woods Johnson Foundation all the way up to the World Health Organization. Although I didn't say it directly, my point in including that was to provide a trail for other researchers to follow that exposes the intent behind the nationalized medical records, the clinics for poor people and managed care plans. The intent is to integrate medical research into the health care delivery system. YIKES! And the nationalized Health IT system will allow them to select victims for research without their even knowing about it. That truly is a Trojan Horse.
But I'm not done yet. I did a search on 'Community Health Center' which is the corporation that provides medical care for the uninsured in Florida. They were listed on the Health and Human Services website as getting federal money under the Recovery Act
Recovery Act (ARRA): Increased Demand for Services Community Health Center Grants in Florida
More Federal money for Health IT
Somehow I ended up zeroing in on a company by the name of B L Seamon
connected to the National Health Service Corp and found that they were
issued a sole source contract for $300 million also under the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA):
B L Seamon - Sole Source Contract
Solicitation Number:
230200732008Synopsis:
Added: Apr 08, 2009 3:54 pmThe Health Resources and Services Administration, Division of Procurement Management (DPM), intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with B L Seamon Corporation, 9001 Edmonston Road, Suite 200, Greenbelt, MD 20770 to modify Contract HHSH230200732008C entitled, "National Health Service Corps (NHSC) Recruitment, Training, and Support Center (RTSC) Contract." The purpose of the NHSC RTSC contract is to provide support to the NHSC by assisting sites who wish to make application to the NHSC for inclusion on the list of eligible NHSC service sites for NHSC clinicians and matching those clinicians to NHSC approved vacancies while considering program requirements and participant preferences to maintain clinician retention.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) provides $300 million to the NHSC to support health professions educational loan repayment and scholarship. A key component of the ARRA is the creation and preservation of primary health care jobs through the NHSC Loan Repayment Program. Through ARRA, the NHSC is required to recruit and place more than 3,300 additional clinicians to serve and provide primary health care services to our Nation's neediest communities within an 18-month period. The bulk of these awards will be made within the first 6-12 months. NHSC clinicians cannot be matched to a site that is not an NHSC approved site or to a site that does not have an approved vacancy. The NHSC maintains a single "Job Opportunities List" which contains approved vacancies. Updates to the vacancy list are provided to the NHSC by the contractor through the NHSC RTSC contract (contract HHSH230200732008C). No new loan repayment awards can be made without the vacancy management services provided under the NHSC RTSC contract. By modifying the contract to add services related to ARRA funded awards, clinicians participating under both the core annual contract appropriations and the ARRA appropriations can be matched to appropriate sites in time to receive awards during the contract performance period, fulfilling the intent of the ARRA.
As the prime contractor for the NHSC RTSC contract, B L Seamon Corporation is the only source that can provide the required services without substantial duplication of costs to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition and without unacceptable delays in the fulfilling the agency's requirements. The NHSC RTSC contractor provides critical support to site approval, vacancy management (adding vacancies to the list after approval, eliminating vacancies after they have been filled), award process, clinician placement and service monitoring. The first NHSC Loan Repayment Program awards supported by the ARRA funds are due to be made in May of 2009. Without this contract support, NHSC Loan Repayment awards that provide clinicians to deliver primary health services in communities of greatest need cannot be made. This contract modification would provide the same level of critical support, which current participants receive, for clinicians who are supported by ARRA appropriations. The requested modification does not change the nature of the activities provided by the current contractor; rather, it simply increases the volume of services in order to accommodate the additional 3300 ARRA funded clinicians. No other source can provide the necessary services without substantial duplication of costs and without unacceptable delays. Therefore, as set forth in 41.U.S.C. 253(c) (1), as implemented by FAR Part 6.302-1, the statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is "only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements".
This is a notice of intent, not a request for competitive proposals. Responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) will be posted within 14 days after award of the contract modification. Because any modification that results from this JOFOC will use ARRA funds, an ARRA intent to negotiate will be posted prior to negotiations of a resulting modification. The contact person for this requirement is Michele McDermott, Contract Specialist, Division of Procurement Management (DPM), Parklawn Building, Room 13A-19, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857-5600; phone number 301/443-1798; fax 301/443-5462
So naturally, I went to the B L Seamon website to find out who they are - and what their qualifications were for providing support to the National Health Service Corp for Recruitment, Training and Support for medical professionals.
Looking looking.... not seeing anything that qualifies them to recruit and train medical professionals. What I do see is a very scary logo and a slogan "Connecting Global Communities".

HUBZone Program receives priority over other set-aside programs
WASHINGTON, D.C., November 6, 2008 —The General Accounting Office (GAO) has given priority to HUBZone Program set-asides over other small business set-aside programs.
GAO denied a motion for reconsiderations and cited the "HUBZone Rule of Two," which states that HUBZone set-asides have priority over any other set-aside programs when there are two or more qualified HUBZone bidders.
The GAO stated that a contract shall be awarded on the basis of competition restricted to HUBZone small business concerns if the contracting officer has a reasonable expectation that no fewer than two qualified HUBZone small businesses will submit offers that are within a fair market price. If these conditions are met, the use of the HUBZone set-aside program should be followed.
HUBZone refers to the Small Business Administration (SBA) program for small companies that operate and employ people in Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZones).

Wow!
If you aren't getting the picture yet on the Small Business Administration and the funneling of HUGE amounts of money - and I mean BIG BIG money to allegedly disadvantaged, minority businesses in "Hub Zones" where they get tax abatement in addition to preferences for government contracts giving them an unfair competitive advantage over "non-connected" businesses, then read these stories that I did on other SBA minority businesses:
And for more info on the SBA scam - Hawks Cafe.
And one more time - Go back to the Human Genome Project documentation - Page 12
And on February 11, 2002, George Bush showed up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with a facial injury and a ridiculous story about having choked on a pretzel. The purpose of his visit to the Medical College of Wisconsin was to unveil "his" proposal for "Health Security".
But "his" proposal for Health Security wasn't his proposal for Health Security. It was the plan that was in place that was designed by Ira Magaziner during the Clinton Administration.
And actually, I can see now where my list of injured public officials might come into this. When I first started seeing the injuries, I just thought it was odd - so I didn't keep much information. At some point, I thought this is too much - too many injuries.

Mark Warner - on the last day of the National Governor's Association meeting, showed up with his wrist and forearm wrapped. His story was that he fell off his bike.
Arnold Schwartzeneggar - supposedly broke his thigh bone skiing at Sun Valley. He wouldn't say how it happened.

Max Baucus - black eye. Another black eye was observed on September 27, 2007, during a Senate Finance Committee hearing on the GAO Report on Border Security.
Ted Stevens - arm in a sling (I'm not 100% sure of this one but I'm about 99% sure. This was before I really started paying attention.)
Tim Russert - fell down and hurt his leg. On crutches - 'coincidently' before he testified against Scooter Libby. Died young - heart attack roughly within a year.
Justice Souter - mugged in the park when he was jogging by 2 men who stole nothing. This was before the Kelo decision.
Congressional Staffer - Around the same time as Justice Souter, a congressional staffer was followed home by two men and was mugged in her drive way. Nothing stolen.
Senator Akaka. Arm injured - in a sling - he had the arm pinned down (so it wouldn't flap - like when you have your arm outside the sleeve).
Nancy Pelosi. When she was testifying about how she had a change of heart on nuclear power after 20 years of opposition, it appeared to me that she had some kind red marks on her right cheek that she had tried to cover with makeup. She's too old for zits.
Tim Walberg (MI) - arm in sling
Barney Frank (MA) - arm in sling
Chief Justice Roberts - “seizure” on his boat dock. Waiting to see what his face looks like.
Yesterday, there was a breaking news story about Chief Justice Roberts. Supposedly he had a seizure on his boat dock - fell down and 'scratched up' his face. As the story goes, he had a seizure in 1993 so this was not unprecedented. uh huh.
Looking at this in context. Here are the number of public officials and personalities that I've noted visible, physical injuries. It's possible that Justice Roberts really did have a seizure. It's possible that all of these public officials are clumsy - but I just don't buy it
