and of its compromising of the mucosal immune system

Abstract

Abstract

Both common observation and official statistics

confirm that there have been dramatic increases

in chronic physical and mental illnesses in

Amer-ican children, such as autism, asthma, and

allergies since the introduction of the MMR

vaccine in 1978. Government health officials have

denied a relationship with vaccines, but U.S.

Congressional hearings on vaccine safety (1999 to

Dec. 2004) revealed a total absence of vaccine

safety tests that would meet current scientific

standards, so that it can be assumed that many

vaccine reactions are taking place unrecognized.

Prior to the introduction of vaccines, the Th1

cellular immune system of the gastrointestinal

and respiratory systems served as the primary

defense systems with the Th2 hu-moral immune

system in the bone marrow, serving a secondary role.

There is a school of thought that the “minor

childhood diseases” of earlier times, including

measles, mumps, chicken pox, and rubella, which

involved the epithelial tissues of skin,

respiratory, and/or gastrointestinal tracts,

served a necessary purpose in challenging,

strengthening, and establishing the dominance of

Th1 cellular immune system during early

childhood. Current vaccines against these

diseases, in contrast, being directed at

stimulating antibody production in the bone

marrow, are bypassing the cellular immune system

and thereby tending to reverse the roles of the

cellular and humoral systems, with the former

suffering from a lack of challenge. In addition,

the cellular immune system is being further

compromised by the powerfully immunosuppressive

effects of the MMR vaccine. The time is overdue

to totally rethink and redirect our current childhood vaccine program.

Autism is 1 in 67 children today and it's

impossible to have a genetic epidemic!
