Even these two ingredients, let alone the rest, cause sensitization to the immune system for example, and your child, since the vaccination, is sensitive to certain foods, which intensify his autistic behavior.
You learn about DR Wakefield's, Professor O'Leary's and others' research where they are developing an understanding of the damage the vaccines can do to the gastrointestinal system, and how this is intricately linked to the condition. You quite likely note that your own son has been suffering tummy problems at the same time (if the autism developed by that mechanism, and not from encephalitis), and again only since that vaccination.
You remember how after his vaccines in his first year he started getting several bacterial, particularly ear infections, and was frequently on antibiotics, which you know could have increased the susceptibility of his gastrointestinal system before the 12-15 mth MMR and Hib or 18 mth DPT. You recognize the typical pattern.
You might even ask on email lists if there are any unvaccinated children that have developed autism, and you may get back a negative response. We ourselves have only been able to find 2 such cases, and in each case there was another clearly identifiable immune assault.
We have found NO case of it developing in a previously healthy unvaccinated child.
Then you discover, and read, whole books that are compilations of a huge amount of medical research on vaccination and behavioral disorders (including autism), each research study they reference establishing a link that makes up one or more pieces of the jigsaw. These books include:
-
Dr Viera Scheibner's "Behavioral Problems in Childhood - The Link to Vaccination",
-
Greg Wilson's "Vaccination and Behavioral Disorders - A Review of the Controversy",
-
Harris Coulter's "Vaccination: Social Violence and Criminality, The Assault on the American Brain",
- Karen Seroussi's "Unraveling the Mystery of Autism".
The first two of these books document over 500 relevant medical papers between them. By now we have the situation that if this were put to trial in a fair court, the verdict would be "Guilty beyond all reasonable doubt."
If courts required further proof than this before they came to a verdict with traditional "garden-variety" criminals, our jails would be empty and murderers would be running around loose on the streets. Of course unfortunately for "common" murderers their activities are not protected by a multi-trillion dollar industry.
5. So what then IS the solution to this problem?
Seeing the solution requires an understanding of the whole vaccination issue. This requires a decent amount of research, if all that we have believed or assumed about vaccination up to this point is what the medical establishment has told us.
Before doing any such research, parents could be concerned that if they do not vaccinate, their children could catch these infectious diseases, and die or suffer permanent injuries as a result.
However once parents do more research they come to realize that this concern is invalid in two respects:
1) It assumes that vaccines prevent diseases.
Research reveals that the actual effect of vaccines is actually sensitization, the word "sensitization" even specifically used in medical journals in describing the effect.
"Sensitization" means that the recipient is made MORE, not less sensitive, i.e. more, not less susceptible to contracting the infection and more vulnerable to it, increasing the chance of developing a 3 to 4 year cyclic disease.
When this decline in vaccine compliance occurred whooping cough incidence remained at an all time low for the longest recorded interepidemic period. The overall infant mortality rate also plummeted, being also the lowest on record for an epidemic when the next epidemic came around.
The same happened in Japan after 1975 when the vaccination age was lifted to 2 years; Japan zoomed from a much higher rate (17th place) to the lowest infant mortality rate (1st place) in the world (Los Angeles Times, March 1,1990).
In contrast to this, after the US mandated the DPT vaccine in 1978 there was a documented 300% sustained increase in the reported cases of whooping cough, and it is still rising, to the point that, with mandatory vaccination in most states and 5 doses of the vaccine, it now occurs at a far higher rate than before the introduction of the vaccine (see Sutter, R.W., and Cochi, S.L., 1992. Pertussis hospitalizations and mortality in the United States, 1985-1988. J Amer Med Ass;267(3):386-390).
Indeed, despite the overall far superior living standards in other respects - better housing, clean water, nutrition, etc, the US infant mortality rates rival those of the third world. Significantly it went from 6th place in the world in the early fifties before mass vaccination started to 20th place by 1990, and it has since dropped several ranks further (down to 26th place a few years ago).
Similarly, measles had virtually disappeared in Europe, UNTIL vaccination began, after which it rose again. Sadly, it seems that almost whatever the vaccine promoters say, you can simply change their claim to say the exact opposite, and then you will know the truth. With the few times that what they say is true, they are giving only part of the story, which is misleading because people then make false assumptions about the rest.
2) The other respect in which the above claim is invalid is that even if vaccines DID prevent infectious diseases, these are not life-threatening diseases that are untreatable.
They may be untreatable by the medical establishment, but that is because, with its very heavy ties with an industry that markets poisonous substances as bringers of health, it is unable to get away from this obsession of interfering with the immune system (usually by such administrations), instead of supporting it.
It is important to understand that the immune system is designed to do a job, and is quite capable of doing so - the complexities of this inbuilt intelligence developed, as it did in other animals, long before Homo Sapiens even began to evolve.
Thanks to the damaging effect of the vaccines their mothers had, weakening the transplacentally transmitted immunity, young infants are now susceptible to whooping cough, which is dangerous (only) under 6 months, but even then it is still treatable. Any deaths represent the damage done and bad management by medical establishment (illustrated clearly in MJA March 1998); they are not curses of nature.
It is natural to survive.
In fact properly supported (and ideally at the age of childhood, as nature intended, not infanthood), the exercise of dealing with childhood infections such as measles, mumps, rubella, whooping cough and chicken pox, has been documented in medical literature to be beneficial- it primes and matures the immune system, lowering the risk of serious diseases such as cancer in later life (Lancet, 1985, Cancer 1966), and asthma (Lancet 1996, 1999).
It has also been seen to help the development of the brain - often evident in such things as children's drawings before and after they go through the infections. The name "measles" itself is an old Sanskrit word meaning "visitation by a goddess".
The recognition of these benefits has even manifested in a tradition of measles (etc) parties, to which parents bring their children deliberately to be exposed to the child with the infection, in order to enable them to gain these benefits as well as immunity for later life, when it is far more unpleasant to go through.
So even if the vaccine WERE effective, it is inappropriate to be even trying to prevent these infections anyway. Children will only get them if and when they need them, and once they have them they only need to be properly managed.
When the immune system fails to do its job, it is not because it is inherently incapable of overcoming the infection, but because we have denied it the resources that it needs, or interfered with its activity.
All the resources it needs are?
- A sufficient nutritional status (not really a problem in developed countries today, though many people would do better if their levels of these, particularly Vitamin C, were higher)
- energy through sufficient rest
We interfere with its activity when?
- We divert the body's labor resources to other activities such as digestion (making the person eat)
- by giving Tylenol and other antipyretics, we prevent it raising or keeping its temperature at the level it knows it needs (N.B. It raises it because for every degree rise in temperature, the rate of production and travel of leukocytes to the site of infection, actually DOUBLES)
- we harm organisms in the body that have an important role in the immune system (i.e. when we give antibiotics)
Further, when a person is vaccinated, ironically it only damages and weakens the immune system, and further severely saps its resources, such as Vitamin C, and therefore only increases the challenge it has in its effort to deal with infections, but even these diseases are still treatable. They just need to be properly supported.
The immune system can manage if it has the basic resources it needs and is then left alone to get on with the job, even though it causes a fair degree of discomfort in the process.
Contrary to popular belief, the body is not suicidal! It raises its temperature to a level that is still safe and helps it fight the infection, not to put itself under threat of brain damage! Apart from this, convulsions occur due to it rising very RAPIDLY from normal (which is not uncommon after vaccination), not due to it being too high.
So, if you ever hear of a child suffering a complication or dying "from", say measles, ask two questions:
1) Was the child vaccinated?
This is most probable, though he/she will most likely be assumed not to have been until the medical records are checked. (By vaccinated we mean at least ONE dose of ANY vaccine - not necessarily the measles vaccine - they ALL weaken the immune system), and
2) What treatment was the child given?
Sure enough you will find that the illness was mismanaged, as described above.
Non-vaccinating parents in our developed countries are commonly asked what they "do" to their children that makes them so vibrantly healthy and alert. It is actually normal for a properly nourished and nurtured child to grow up in good health, WHEN there is no administration of toxic substances.
In a healthy child, infections, even colds, are rarely seen, and if and when contracted they are dealt with easily and quickly. Indeed, most of the time an infection is contracted it is dealt with so easily by the immune system that the person does not fall ill, so is unaware of it.
So, in summary, the incomplete analysis and handling of the autism problem is muddying the issue and only results in what can best be described as a logical mess in relation to the whole issue of causality of autism.
Some parents discount the link completely because they know that their or other's children developed autism before the MMR, or much later (after another vaccine). Others expend vast amounts of energy searching for, and traveling long distances to, medical centers that will give separate measles, mumps and rubella vaccines.
As a result, many thousands of children continue to be damaged, developing autism and many other serious effects, as a result of being given the MMR vaccine itself, the SEPARATE measles, mumps, rubella vaccines and/or the OTHER vaccines. And most ironically, they are only more, not less, susceptible to these otherwise harmless, indeed (if properly managed) beneficial, infections.
An example of the logical mess and resultant tragedy was reported to us recently. A couple of mothers who are friends had read an article in the daily newspaper about the MMR vaccine causing autism. One of the mothers had an autistic son. Initially she wondered then if the MMR had caused the autism in her son, but then she discounted the link because she remembered that her son started showing the signs of autism BEFORE being given the MMR.
When, as a result of remembering this, she told her friend that her initial concern about the MMR link was wrong, this reassurance encouraged her friend to submit her own son to the MMR. Now, shortly after that, this friend's son is starting to show the signs of autism.
One cannot successfully fight mistruth with other mistruths. Without the full, in fact basically simple truth, we just get confusion and more poisoning, with the resultant needless suffering.
Please help us teach the community what does and does NOT bring good health, so that children in the future can be spared autism and other tragedies.

Dear Editor:
Dr. Dales and colleagues provide a timely investigation of an important social concern, the potential link between autism and MMR immunizations. However their data is of insufficient quality to support their conclusions.
Their survey sample is small, randomly selected and from unpublished data. They failed to separate children who received one MMR vaccine were not separated from those who received two MMR injections. Individuals who received a combined MMR vaccine were not separated from children who received separate measles, mumps and/or rubella injections. Additionally, they failed to include a control group analyzing the number of cases of autism that appeared in never vaccinated children. Finally, the immunization and autism records for the same children were not matched.
By the researcher's admission, the study is flawed. Therefore, their conclusion that "there is no correlation between the MMR immunization rates and the increased occurrence of autism" needs to be reexamined.
A recent prospective follow up of 1.8 million children over a 14 year period with an MMR vaccination program in Finland also found a negative association with MMR vaccination and autism. The research was partly funded by the vaccine supplier, Merck, and used a passive surveillance system, despite wide spread acceptance that this type of reporting not adequate to show safety of a pharmaceutical product, let alone a vaccine.
The study was very dependent on Adverse Drug Reactions reporting by medical professionals despite evidence a 1997 French study (Moride et al) suggesting that doctors may be under-reporting ADRs by 24,500 times. Any study which is totally dependent on adverse reaction reporting by medical professionals must be flawed from the start.
The two negative reports contrast an independent investigator, Wakefield, who has established a clear link between autism and the MMR vaccine.
Autism is epidemic in this country and certain communities like California have experienced a 1,000 percent increase in autism over the last twenty years. Flawed science can further distract us from the serious and very real issue of vaccine induced brain injury.
