Hannah Poling Autism-Vaccine Case:

[Guest guest]

This is an area of research where the science is moving very fast and

it's about time. I am so grateful for Dr. Poling's article and for

his insight. The CDC can no longer deny a link between vaccinations

and autism. The Hannah Poling case has had a huge impact on the

autistic community and studies will be demanded. Are vaccinations

causing mitochondrial dysfunctions? What impact does it have on our

susceptibility to mold?

Hannah Poling Autism-Vaccine Case:

Implications for ME/CFS-labelled patients

By Lara

Abstract

When Hannah Poling was 19 months old she was administered 9 vaccines

simultaneously and just 48 hours afterwards, her health began to

deteriorate. She developed a fever and her temperature soared to 38.9°

C. She cried inconsolably, was irritable, lethargic and refused to

walk. Over the next 4 months her growth and movement decreased,

rashes appeared on her abdomen and she began to display autistic

behaviours including fixation on television, poor eye contact,

spinning and disrupted sleep. Tests and muscle biopsy carried out by

her father (a neurologist at Hopkins University in the USA) and

his colleagues indicated specific genetic mutations in her

mitochondrial DNA (mt-DNA), Type 1 muscle fibre atrophy and abnormal

levels of various metabolic products in her blood stream (elevated

lactic acid, serum creatine kinase level, and aspartate

aminotransferase). The findings were published in the Journal of

Clinical Pathology along with a retrospective study of 159 other ASD

patients. [1] Hannah's parents applied for vaccine damages in order

to pay for the `one-to-one' specialist care that she will probably

require for the rest of her life. In 2007, the U.S. Department of

Health and Human Services (DHHS) made the decision to award the

Poling family compensation from the federal vaccine injury fund after

they conceded that immunisations given to her at 19 months old had

aggravated a rare underlying mitochondrial condition that resulted in

a brain disorder `with features of autism spectrum disorder'.

I have seen McCarthy on several shows trying to get help for her

son with autism. One thing she talked about was how she put her son on

yeast free diet and it help some. I saw her on Chelsy Lately one night

and she was asking everyone who watched to demand the firing of that

woman that is the head of the CDC. Gebling or something like that is

her last name. McCarthy has the same passion that we have trying

to make change and get awareness how bad the system is for the

unpopular illnesses.
