Government cover-up of a mercury/autism scandal

http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/7395411/deadly_im...

In June 2000, a group of top government scientists and health officials gathered for a meeting at the isolated Simpsonwood conference center in Norcross, Georgia. Convened by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the meeting was held at this Methodist retreat center, nestled in wooded farmland next to the Chattahoochee River, to ensure complete secrecy. The agency had issued no public announcement of the session -- only private invitations to fifty-two attendees. There were high-level officials from the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration, the top vaccine specialist from the World Health Organization in Geneva and representatives of every major vaccine manufacturer, including GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, Wyeth and Aventis Pasteur. All of the scientific data under discussion, CDC officials repeatedly reminded the participants, was strictly "embargoed." There would be no making photocopies of documents, no taking papers with them when they left.
The federal officials and industry representatives had assembled to discuss a disturbing new study that raised alarming questions about the safety of a host of common childhood vaccines administered to infants and young children. According to a CDC epidemiologist named Tom Verstraeten, who had analyzed the agency's massive database containing the medical records of 100,000 children, a mercury-based preservative in the vaccines -- thimerosal -- appeared to be responsible for a dramatic increase in autism and a host of other neurological disorders among children. "I was actually stunned by what I saw," Verstraeten told those assembled at Simpsonwood, citing the staggering number of earlier studies that indicate a link between thimerosal and speech delays, attention-deficit disorder, hyperactivity and autism. Since 1991, when the CDC and the FDA had recommended that three additional vaccines laced with the preservative be given to extremely young infants -- in one case, within hours of birth -- the estimated number of cases of autism had increased fifteenfold, from one in every 2,500 children to one in 166 children.

My brother used to bring mason jars

... full of mercury home from the U.S. Navy torpedo plant. We had that stuff all over the house. We enjoyed dropping it on the floor and watch all the beads go into different directions, then try to gather it up in one puddle. Not to mention all the mercury the dentist put in our mouths. Brother is 76, and I'm 66. He is still quick on his feet figuratively. The jury is still out on me ;)

DEADLY IMMUNITY

Surprise, surprise

Someone let the hat out of the bag. Hopefully more people will take this very seriously and do something about it. Our government is so full of murderers and thieves. It just makes me sick.

Thanks for posting this

My best friend's granddaughter, age 2, was just diagnosed with autism. She was current on all of her vaccines. Poor baby. Sweet, loving, innocent little Claire. The family is absolutely devastated. I've sent them a few links, trying to open their eyes and point them in the right direction, and they've been very receptive and gung ho, thank goodness. From the little bit I've read, it may be reversible? Any words of wisdom?

Jenny McCarthy is actually worth following

Because she reversed her son's autism by following a special diet. She is a great advocate of taking matters into your own hands, and she offers real hope. I highly recommend her books, and I'm a health nut.

Thanks so much

That is wonderful to hear! Diet really is everything. I love Jenny McCarthy. She is one smart, brave, outspoken woman. I'll definitely be recommending her.

yeah it's called Cilantro

3 weeks of 1 tablespoon a day and you're clean as a whistle.

I wonder how many Drs out there say..

" It is such a small amount ..." as my doc did when refuting my objections to being required to receive a tetanus vaccine for employment purposes."

FYI my titers were very high after17 years!! tetanus and diptheria

I got into a hefty argument

with our family doctor yesterday when he wanted to vaccinate my son. What a shame, he was a good guy, but now we'll be switching doctors.

Mercury is poision

This is one tree that the conspiracy dogs should be barking up. Mercury is quite toxic even at the microgram level, and it stays in your system for a damn long time. (It deposits in the fatty tissue in your nervous system).

However, this disease has never been conclusively linked to autism by any peer reviewed journal, and god knows they have tried.

Interestingly...they have found a VERY strong coorelation between autism rates and cable TV subscriptions.

IMHO (as humble as I get anyway) there is a disease behind autism, but it has been overdiagnosed by a factor of 100. Essentially, most cases of "the autism spectrum" are simply children who have parents too busy to have normal conversations in raising their children and are content to plop them in front of the television.

Television is damaging to communication skills, because a child learns only how to communicate one-way.

Blaming autism on mercury is a cop-out developed for parents who don't want to accept that they blew it in raising a well adjusted child. - end opinion.

That being said...injecting anyone, especially a baby, with any amount of mercury is insane. Let it be known that you are winning this battle...we're probably no more than a few years from eliminating mercury from vaccinations.

you

you are blind with ignorance.

?

You think autism comes from watching too much tv? Seriously?

Here...read this

This is a study done by researchers at Cornell that ties autism rates vs. rates of cable television.

http://www.johnson.cornell.edu/faculty/profiles/waldman/autp...

No

Let me clarify

There is a serious disease called autism...I would guess it's genetic based, having read case studies of people like Kim Peek (rainman) and others.

There is also a much more prevelant diagnosis of diseases on the "autism spectrum" that sounds a little like autism on paper (poor communication skills, inability to handle any deviation in schedule) but are diagnosed as autism because parents don't like to hear from their family doctor that their children have been raised poorly.

What I am saying is there really is a serious disease which is quite rare, but has become popular and overdiagnosed.

Think ADHD...another popular "disease" caused by too little personal interaction.

I do suspect...

...there is an overuse, even abuse, of the "ADD/ADHD" diagnosis.

I am very hesitant to put autism in that mix, though.

Thank you, though, for clarifying.

Further reading

I know I'm assiging a lot of reading, but here's an article on Asperger's syndrome...it is now considered on the "autism spectrum".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome

This is a crime to consider this syndrome one in the same with autism, and is merely an attempt to spread autism funding to other illnesses.

BTW..autism is one of the best funded diseases...and might overtake breast cancer someday.

Thanks for the links.

Sounds like interesting reading for later.

Thanks legalize

I send these articles to my buddy who just had a baby and is concerned about all the vacinations she's gotten in just 4 months.He's looking for info like this to show his wife.Thanks again.

These four paragraphs from the article stuck out the

most for me:

...More than 500,000 kids currently suffer from autism, and pediatricians diagnose more than 40,000 new cases every year. The disease was unknown until 1943, when it was identified and diagnosed among eleven children born in the months after thimerosal was first added to baby vaccines in 1931...

...You couldn't even construct a study that shows thimerosal is safe," says Haley, who heads the chemistry department at the University of Kentucky. "It's just too darn toxic. If you inject thimerosal into an animal, its brain will sicken. If you apply it to living tissue, the cells die. If you put it in a petri dish, the culture dies. Knowing these things, it would be shocking if one could inject it into an infant without causing damage."...

...Internal documents reveal that Eli Lilly, which first developed thimerosal, knew from the start that its product could cause damage -- and even death -- in both animals and humans. In 1930, the company tested thimerosal by administering it to twenty-two patients with terminal meningitis, all of whom died within weeks of being injected -- a fact Lilly didn't bother to report in its study declaring thimerosal safe...

...vaccine industry insists that ethylmercury poses little danger because it breaks down rapidly and is removed by the body, several studies -- including one published in April by the National Institutes of Health -- suggest that ethylmercury is actually more toxic to developing brains and stays in the brain longer than methylmercury...

It makes one's head spin seeing these things.

Very depressing to think about all the unsuspecting victims.

Thank you Jiminy and you Habit4ming*))

when I posted this I visualized hundreds of comments...sadly people seem to dislike long articles ` I guess...
