Marguerite,

Poul Thorsen is a Danish MD who published a paper several years ago citing

Danish statistics to discredit any relationship between Thimerosal (the

Mercury-imbedded preservative used in vaccine manufacture) and the rise in the

number of autism cases.

In Thorsen's actions and behavior subsequent to that paper he was hired by the

CDC to conduct a number of studies/assessments and/or statistical

analysis--which he never did, resulting in the multiple charges of fraud against

him. The link you provided is an excellent in-depth analysis of what this all

means.

Bottom line: The CDC has been engaged for years with person(s) in positions of

presumed knowledge and expertise who are also highly dishonest. This calls into

question everything CDC has done in the past, which may or may not be

legitimate.

If these charges were made by people on our side of the Thimerosal argument it's

doubtful any eyebrows would raise. But since CDC brought the charges, an analogy

would be UHMS filing suit against , the Australian doctor who

perpetually defends the UHMS position of never acknowledging the benefits of

HBOT for brain-injured people.

You may recall that I've had my own run-in with the CDC. Two years ago I emailed

the link to download Rossignol's controlled study verifying improvements in

autistic children via a hyperbaric therapy protocol of 1.3 ambient air to the

CDC's then National Director of Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities. At

3 that afternoon two FBI agents were at my door accusing me of making physical

threats against the CDC director--via an email.

That director was Dr. Edwin Trevathan, MD, a pediatric neurologist hired by

Georgia Medicaid in November, 1999 to review the SPECT-scan imaging of Jimmy

Freels before/after Jimmy received HBOT.

Trevathan formed and expressed his first opinion on the possibility of Jimmy

Freels improving from HBOT to a neighbor and patterning volunteer who lives on

our street. She and Trevathan used to attend the same church in the 1980's and

1990's.

Her husband underwent surgery in 1993 to remove a tumor on his brain stem.

Complications during surgery put him into a coma for four months. When he

finally woke up and came home he was 70% incapacitated.

This neighbor was a daily witness to the daily improvements in Jimmy during his

initial series of HBOT in May-July, 1999. She contacted Trevathan in August,

1999 and asked if it were possible for a child like Jimmy to improve via

HBOT--even though she actually knew it was quite possible because she'd already

seen it for herself. She was trying to determine if there was a bias against

HBOT from the professional community.

Trevathan told her any improvement was impossible, and even followed up their

phone conversation with a 2-page letter in which Trevathan stated, " The notion

that it [HBOT] could 'wake up' damaged areas of brain [in Jimmy Freels] is

frankly scientifically silly. " --Pediatric Neurologist Edwin Trevathan, August

14, 1999.

While preparing for our June, 2000 ALJ hearing, the following was posted on the

old hbo-list:

Dear List:

Is it true that Spect scan can not be reliable when

it comes to HBOT. A doctor in St.Louis Mo told

me that the scan changes from day to day. The

seizures make it change and he said that the changes

we saw and Dr. Uszler reported on were really not

improvements just I guess mistakes. If you take another

scan the next day it would be different. What is the

truth about this. This doctor was used by Georgia STate

to determine if a child would get the treatements paid for.

Of course he denied that it helped in anyway. He said the

spects did not prove that a real change occured. Can anyone

explain? This doctor was a Neurologist.Rhonda

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. For more information about this list,

please see http://www.hyperbaric.com/list.htm .

The poster was Rhonda Nicholson, still an occasional contributor here on the

listserv. She confirmed the physician she was referring to was

Trevathan.

Just like Thorsen, Trevathan is also a dishonest person. He should have recused

himself from participating in any review of Jimmy Freels v the Georgia

Department of Community Health since he'd already rendered an opinion without

seeing any evidence.

After the FBI incident, I'm now convinced Georgia Medicaid did not call

Trevathan and ask him to review our request.

Trevathan called them.
