Autism Vaccination Link is not a closed case!!

[Yeddi]

Just released last week...

While there are likely many routes to "autism", including prenatal neurological insults and toxic post-natal exposures, this preliminary analysis of VICP-compensated cases suggests that autism is often associated with vaccine-induced brain damage. It raises the question if the VICP's decisions have been fair to reject all claims of vaccine injury that use the term "autism". This preliminary assessment also suggest the possibility that other contemporary childhood neurological disorders, including attention deficit disorder and learning disabilities, might be less severe after-effects, on the same spectrum of vaccine-induced brain injury.

Thanks for the link Yeddi. $250,000 isn't much for the loss of your child is it? And I'm sure all of the parents who did manage to get any compensation had to fight like crazy to get it let alone the odd family who have to fight like crazy to prove their child has a physical problem due to vaccination. Every time I read something like this I am so thankful that we didn't vaccinate DS.

thanks yeddi! i was wondering what was happening this action in the US. will go off to read it now

Never believed for a minute that it was! Thanks Yeddi.
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the use of human diploid cells derived from aborted human fetus in the 12month MMR and its proposed link to autism too. The amount of parents who claim that their child developed rapid onset of autistic symptoms (speech, motor skill regression) after MMR compared with earlier (non-human diploid cell) containing vaccines is quite staggering. Of course, speech and motor skills are more adavanced at this age so I suppose one could argue that the physical effects and subsequent regression are simply more pronounced? I have read some interesting material in the past on the ability of the body to develop antibodies to human tissue, given the presence of human diploid cells in the bloodstream. Another area that requires more research, no doubt.
This is not to discount the effects of heavy metals such as thimerosal and aluminium on the brain, however - which we know is not benign.

Hi Jelly,

Personally I saw signs of autism before the MMR - it was her 6 month shots where I saw the biggest difference. However, DD did have her first fit 1 week after having the MMR, and lost what words she did have and didn't regain them until 8 months later.

[JellyBean]

mmmm.... so sad and yet a story I have heard so often.
It would also be interesting to compare the rate of adverse reactions to MMR in groups of children who have delayed vaccination (ie - receive their first round of shots at 12months) and those who have adhered strictly to the schedule. I'd be curious as to the extent that accumulative levels of heavy metals and other toxins influence the MMR reaction.
Did you ever try any Chelation therapy for your daughter? I have spoken with a couple of parents of vaccine damaged children who are strong advocates for this method for heavy metal removal (along with intensive nutritional therapy- under the guidance of a qualified Naturopath). I did it myself a few years ago to test the theory - had a hair trace mineral analysis test conducted at pathology and then proceeded to take small amounts of bentonite clay for a period of 5-6 months before having another test conducted. The results were quite remarkable. Levels of aluminium, cadmium, mercury, arsenic etc were all drastically reduced. Not to mention I felt progressively more alert and energetic as I continued with the bentonite....
Just a tad off topic there......

Have to add - of course it was alarming to see the levels of heavy metals accumulated in my body, despite my best efforts to limit my exposure to them.

Jellybean,
You seem to know so much about this, where did you do your research?
With every vaccine do the risks increase due to the aluminum etc?
We have decided to delay mmr until dd starts school but she is having the others. We wanted to delay the hep b and some others but the shots are all combined now so we couldn't pick n choose. If we wanted her to have whooping cough vacc she had to have the others as well.
Can you tell me a bit more about the dangers of the metals in the vaccines or pm me?

[Heaven]

Babyluv- you can get DTPa + polio if you want That's the smallest you can get but still means you don't have to have hep B, etc.

[Yeddi]

I personally hate the hep B - it's made on mutated yeast which can affect the gut. I think it's wrong that they don't provide the option of single vaccines. I bet you vaccination rates would go up if they did, if it's health they are truly worried about.

[Heaven]

Exactly Yeddi. If I could get single vaccines and space them out I would be MUCH more likely to vaccinate.
