For years the USA has lead the nations of the world in being first and foremost with cases of “modern man illnesses” such as Alzheimer’s disease, Acrodynia, Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, ALS, and now Autism. The rate of Autism has reached incredible levels recently in the USA and yet seems not to be given the attention such a disaster deserves.
• The USA is remarkable in that we now have the highest rate and number of vaccines given the earliest to infants and now have one of the highest rates of infant mortality in the Western nations as well as the highest rate of autism by far.
• In spite of our high level of science and technology in biomedicine we still claim that all of the illnesses given above have “no known cause”——but common sense and a basic understanding of biological science tells us the causes cannot be purely genetic and that a toxic exposure is required, and it is scientifically logical the mercury compounds in our vaccines are the primary cause for early infant death and autism.
• Due to the involvement of the CDC in the vaccine program it is critical that an unbiased group be formed to look at the both the toxic effects of our vaccines and other questions concerning the efficacy of the CDC vaccine program (remember the mumps epidemic where about 85% of those infected were also vaccinated?). The CDC administrators cannot play a controlling role in this evaluation of the vaccine program.
• The autism epidemic started soon after the CDC mandated vaccine program was implemented and it is a good question to ask our health authorities “if the CDC vaccine program prevents significant amounts of infant death from infectious diseases then what are USA infants dying of that place the USA at such a disastrous position in comparison to other progressive countries?”
• It is critical to have an independent research group do an epidemiological study of the rate of autism of non-vaccinated children versus vaccinated children. The CDC has refused to do this and has instead employed foreign researchers to do studies on foreign data bases where the exposure to mercury from vaccines was much later and much lower and where the autism rate was also commensurately lower. This scientifically illogical stand by CDC administrators has greatly damaged the entire reputation of the CDC, especially since two of the foreign epidemiologists who were involved and paid by the CDC are now facing criminal charges.
• Note that autism and other autism spectrum disorders affect boys much more than girls—and it is documented science that mercury and organic mercury compounds are more toxic to the male species. Most toxins show little gender difference.
• I could go on much longer but brevity may be best to focus on the issue that the USA health agencies are more and more losing the faith of the American people and seem unable to solve the problems leading to the causation and prevention of the “modern man illnesses”. This failure is most likely because modern medicine does not want to consider that these illnesses are primarily caused by toxic exposures generated by pharmaceutical based toxins delivered by physicians and dentists. It is the failure of modern medicine to comprehend the toxicity of low level exposures to heavy metals that leads to damaging of our most susceptible citizens, our infants and elderly.
