After identifying their sample size, the authors investigated vaccination status of the 624 seizure cases. Whether a child was vaccinated was defined as having received either the DPT or MMR within 30 days prior to first seizure. This meant the authors were comparing recently vaccinated to the non-recently vaccinated. The authors found it was more likely for a child to have a seizure, with fever, within 30 days of both the DPT and the MMR vaccines, than after 30 days of DPT and/or MMR. They did not find any increased risk for nonfebrile seizures for either vaccine, compared to the control group (the non-recently-vaccinated). Any increased risks were then downplayed by comparing study seizure rates with “background” seizure rates obtained from the same HMO’s. The authors also conducted a follow-up study of some of the children who had had febrile first seizures within 30 days of receiving DPT and/or MMR. They concluded, “There are significantly elevated risks of febrile seizures after receipt of DTP vaccine or MMR vaccine, but these risks do not appear to be associated with any long-term, adverse consequences.” That is, there were no long-term differences between those who seized within 30 days of vaccination and those who seized after 30 days of vaccination.

Ask them to urge their colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this legislation.When you contact them, let them know that you will be monitoring their votes on this issue. Let them know this in no uncertain terms!!! There are also two other bills currently before the House that are also important to our cause. You may also wish to let your Representatives know your opinions and ask them to support these other two bills, as well. These bills are: "HR 581, Mercury-Free Vaccine Act of 2007," and "HR 1973, Vaccine Safety and Public Confidence Act of 2007." We need to work very hard on getting the other toxic metals out of vaccines, as well, so you may desire to try convincing your representatives to add an ammendment stating that all other toxic metals must also be removed from vaccines--letting them know that the Mercury-Free legislation is a good start, but that it does not go nearly far enough.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I do not have information on studies done, nor on rate of autism in non-vaccinated populations, but I can offer what I know personally. My family has a long line of high functioning autistics. I know my grandparents were and from what I've learned my grandmother's parents, and sisters. My mother and at least one of her 3 sisters is. My 2 brothers, my sister and I am. Both my sister's children are, one of my brother's two children are. My other brother never had children, led a very secluded life. Out of my 9 kids, 5 are definitely and I have suspicions of 3 others. One of my 4 grandkids is decidely autistic. Eight of my nine kids were never vaccinated. Three of my four grandkids are non-vaccinated, including the one who is certainly autistic. I was heavily vaccinated as a child because we travelled to several countries overseas. I have not seen evidence of more severe autism with those who have been vaccinated, which greatly surprises me. Lolita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Hullo Lolita. Autism spectrum is fairly new to our vocabulary. I would have to question what you mean by high functioning autism, in generations back in your family. There are other things that could have happened, that are more genetic, and without name, until Now, when the spectrum word may be overused or a catch-all phrase. Some families have a higher incidence of, say...suicide. Is that an autisic disorder? Inability to cope with mainstream? And some families have a higher incident of alcoholism. which they are claiming to be somewhat inherited. Is that within the autism spectrum, inability to cope range? In my own family, known about back to my great-grandmother, there is a disorder without name, that has spanned 5 generations, and has effected many, with and without vaccinations. It is more like a social disease, that causes them to recoil from crowds, and they prefer to isolate themselves. Most are being treated with drugs for it, or anti-depressants. Is that autism? I do not know. But along with this strange disorder, is a rare inherited disease called oculopharygeal muscular distrophy. Even those who did not get OPMD, with a 50/50 chance, have still gotten this social disorder. So no, I dont think all austism spectrum problems are all necessarily vaccine induced. There are probably many many reason for autism spectrum, genetics, birth defects, as well as toxin bourne. Am curious what your definition of high function autism is? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Lolita, Thanks for sharing your family’s background with autism. As for your parents, grand parents and so forth; how many were vaccinated based on your understanding? This is an interesting example of the “ancestry factor”. Even though 8 of 9 of your kids and 3 of 4 of your grandchildren where not vaccinated, they my have a stronger tendency to become autistic based on what has happened in previous generations. If we can consider Pottenger’s Cats as an example; it’s safe to say that it may take about three generations of your family line living a clean, healthy lifestyle before you’re out of the woods with autism. Are there any other tendencies you’ve seen other than autism? In addition, this may go beyond vaccinations. What other exposures to toxins could your ancestry have been exposed to over the decades?

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 The only study done so far was a phone survey conducted by Generation Rescue through a neutral third party. SUPPORT THE HOUSE BILL RESOLUTION PREVIOUSLY POSTED. http://www.generationrescue.org/survey_pr.html For Immediate Release: Vaccinated Children Two and a Half Times More Likely to Have Neurological Disorders Like ADHD and Autism, New Survey in California and Oregon Finds. PORTLAND, OR, Sep 25 2007 -- A new survey indicates a strong correlation between rates of neurological disorders, such as ADHD and autism, and childhood vaccinations. The survey, commissioned by Generation Rescue, compared vaccinated and unvaccinated children in nine counties in Oregon and California. Among more than 9,000 boys age 4-17, the survey found vaccinated boys were two and a half times (155%) more likely to have neurological disorders compared to their unvaccinated peers. Vaccinated boys were 224% more likely to have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and 61% more likely to have autism. For older vaccinated boys in the 11-17 age bracket, the results were even more pronounced. Vaccinated boys were 158% more likely to have a neurological disorder, 317% more likely to have ADHD, and 112% more likely to have autism. Complete survey results are available at www.GenerationRescue.org. Generation Rescue commissioned the phone survey. Data was gathered by SurveyUSA, a national market research firm, which surveyed parents by phone on more than 17,000 children, ages 4-17, in five counties in California (San Diego, Sonoma, Orange, Sacramento, and Marin) and four counties in Oregon (Multnomah, n, , and Lane). The survey asked parents whether their child had been vaccinated, and whether that child had one or more of the following diagnoses: Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), ADHD, Asperger's Syndrome, Pervasive Development Disorder -- Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS), or Autism. The phone survey was chosen to mirror the methodology the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) uses to establish national prevalence for neurological disorders in their national phone survey. Generation Rescue also ran a full-page advertisement in USA Today. The ad compares the 36 pediatric vaccines the CDC recommends today to the 10 recommended in 1983, and asks, " Are We Over- Vaccinating Our Kids? " " No one has ever compared prevalence rates of these neurological disorders between vaccinated and unvaccinated children, " said J.B. Handley, co-founder of Generation Rescue, whose son was diagnosed with autism. " The phone survey isn't perfect, but these numbers point to the need for a comprehensive national study to gather this critical information. " In Washington, Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) has been advocating for such a survey. Co-sponsored by Rep. Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) and Rep. Ron (R-TX), the " Comprehensive Comparative Study of Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Population Act of 2006, " or H.R. 2832, was introduced on June 22, and would require the National Institutes of Health to complete this research. " Generation Rescue's study is impressive and forcefully raises some serious questions about the relationship between vaccines and autism. What is ultimately needed to resolve this issue one way or the other is a comprehensive national study of vaccinated and unvaccinated children, " said Congresswoman Maloney. " The parents behind Generation Rescue only want information. These parents deserve more than road blocks, they deserve answers. We can and should move forward in search of those answers. That's why I've introduced a common sense bill that would require the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to conduct a comprehensive, comparative study on the possible link between autism and thimerosal. " From 1983 to 2007, autism rates have climbed from 1 in 10,000 children to 1 in 150 children, a growth rate of 6,000% (boys are significantly more affected by neurological disorders, accounting for approximately 80% of all cases). ADHD currently affects 1 in 13 children. In the same period, the CDC's recommended vaccine schedule more than tripled. The simmering debate over the cause of childhood neurological disorders shows no sign of cooling, but no study had ever been done to look at unvaccinated children. Handley, co-founder of Generation Rescue, adds, " Everyone working with autism wants to identify the cause so we can focus on treatment and prevention. A national study like HR 5940 could help end this debate and focus all of our resources on helping our kids. Its time has come, and we hope Congress will choose to put our children first.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Just found this page http://www.vaclib.org/basic/unvaxhealth.htm It has many links to articles, quotes, etc. looking at vaxed vs unvaxed. In addition, I forget which one of my newsletters (maybe NVIC or AVN?) mentioned they HAVE formally proposed many times to deliver a large sample size (I recall 30,000 but I could be wrong) of unvaccinated children for study comparison and they have always been ignored! best, Liora in Beijing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Lolita, Thanks for the quick reply. I do not claim to have all the answers, but feel comfortable suggesting your ancestry has more than just vaccines creating an ill-health environment. Non-solicited advice: Grains and dairy would be where I would start nutritionally. I’d stop consuming grains completely for 2-4 weeks and see how you feel. If you notice you feel better, I’d never eat grains again. Then move onto dairy and try the same thing. In addition, I would suggest consuming no processed sugar of any kind ever again…its poison.
