Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 ALL, PRESS RELEASE Attached is a CoMeD PRESS RELEASE covering the recent E-pub article: >Young HA, Geier DA, Geier MR. Thimerosal >exposure in infants and neurodevelopmental >disorders: An assessment of computerized >medical records in the Vaccine Safety >Datalink. J Neurol Sci. 2008 May 14. >[Epub ahead of print]. Both " doc " and " pdf " files are attached. RE: THOSE NOT ACCEPTING E-MAIL ATTACHMENTS For those who do not get SUCH, the follow- ing is the rough-text of the pages of the Press Release's text: > >Press Release Contacts: >For Immediate Release CoMeD President > [Rev. K. Sykes > (Richmond, VA) 804- > 364-8426] >June 12, 2008 CoMeD Sci. Advisor > [Dr. King (Lake > Hiawatha, NJ) > ] > >WASHINGTON, DC - A newly published study in >the Journal of the Neurological Sciences [1], >the official journal of the World Federation >of Neurology [2], links mercury from the >Thimerosal in vaccines with autism and other >neurodevelopmental disorders. > >This study represents six years worth of >effort by independent researchers to gain >access to hidden US Centers for Disease Control >and Prevention (CDC) data in the Vaccine Safety >Datalink (VSD). In 2003, the Government Reform >Committee of the US House of Representatives >asserted, " (a)ccess by independent researchers >to the Vaccine Safety Datalink database is >needed for independent replication and validation >of CDC studies regarding exposure of infants to >mercury-containing vaccines and autism. " > >Nonetheless, this new analysis of some of the >data in the carefully guarded VSD database, >documenting the mercury poisoning of a generation >of American children, would never have been >possible without the intervention of Congressional >leaders, parent autism advocacy groups, and legal >experts. Ironically, only a few independent >researchers have gained even this limited level of >restricted access to the VSD database, despite the >fact that the VSD Project is funded by hundreds of >millions of taxpayer dollars. > >The new study, led by Dr. Young, Ph.D., >a professor of epidemiology at the >Washington University School of Public Health >and Health Services, examined the CDC-supplied >medical vaccination records from the VSD of >278,624 children, born from 1990 through 1996. > >This study calculated the average mercury >exposure children incurred from routine >childhood Thimerosal-containing vaccines, >by year of birth, during their first year of >life. After calculating average mercury >exposure by year of birth, the study then >estimated the prevalence rates of various >medical diagnoses for children born in each >of the years examined. > >The prevalence rate of autism and other >neurodevelopmental disorders correlated >with the average mercury exposure children >received: increasing/decreasing levels of >mercury exposure from routine childhood >Thimerosal-containing vaccines resulted >in corresponding trends in prevalence >rates of these diagnoses. By contrast, >medical outcomes presumed to be unrelated >to mercury exposure did not correlate with >the average levels of mercury exposure from >routine childhood Thimerosal-containing >vaccines. > >Depending upon the specific neurodevelop- >mental disorder examined (autism, autism >spectrum disorder, tics, emotional >disturbance, attention deficit disorder- >hyperactivity disorder, and developmental/ >learning disorder), the observed overall >risk of autism and other neurodevelopmental >disorders was significantly higher (about 2- >to 6- fold) following an additional 100 >micrograms of mercury exposure. For autism >alone, the overall risk was about 2.5-fold >higher following an additional 100 micrograms >of mercury exposure. > >These results demonstrate that the suspicions >of those serving on the Government Reform >Committee were correct: " …(t)o date, studies >conducted or funded by the CDC that purportedly >dispute any correlation between autism and >vaccine injury have been of poor design, >under-powered, and fatally flawed. The CDC's >rush to support and promote such research is >reflective of a philosophical conflict in >looking fairly at emerging theories and >clinical data related to adverse reactions >from vaccinations.
