Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Assuming this story is accurate (which it isn't) check the VAERS data for injuries from vaccines and compare to injuries from measles - it's not close - many more vaccine damaged - BILLIONS of dollars paid to vaccine damaged - measles relatively harmless, especially when treated with COD LIVER OIL as done in a significant portion of the rest of the world where they do not give MMR. Go to Generation Rescue and read the 11 page paper in its entirety - Wakefield did not say any of the things he is accused of, but if people just believe what they read from reporters who regurgitate what one man, Deer, inaccurately reported, it appears negative. Read for yourself and get the entire facts. Wakefield results have been replicated numerous times. BTW - my perfectly normally developing baby had a reaction to the MMR, lost eye contact, language and social skills - Dx'd Autism - I saw the reaction first hand. Protocols designed to reverse the adverse effects of vaccines are recovering my son whose ATEC has dropped from almost 100 to about 25. He will be recovered and lose Dx in a few more years. He is not on any Rx medications, the healthiest he's ever been (missed 1 day of school in past 2 years) gets straight A's, school band - clarinet, sports galore and regaining social. this raises important questions: Street Corner Autism Debate http://bit.ly/gSGWGT BTW - isn't it odd that this 11 year old paper becomes front page news the week PAUL OFFIT (owner of several vaccine patents) has a book coming out? Is it coincidence that JULIE GERBERDING, prior head of the CDC Vaccine division, approved OFFIT's Vaccine and now she is HEAD OF MERCK's VACCINE DIVISION? Dr's used be taught in MEDICAL SCHOOL to prescribe HEROIN and COCAINE until 1920's. Cigarettes until mid 1950's. Aspirin 1970's. Numerous drugs once thought safe pulled from the market. We need to keep an open mind and accurately assess the number and combinations of vaccnies we give our kids. The studies have never been done.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Never heard this before. (doesn't mean it's not accurate, I just like knowing ALL the information) Do you have citations? The only thing close comes from the mid 70's and prior when the association between ASPIRIN and REYES SYNDROME was discovered. Before that, I believe it was the aspirin causing the problems, not the measles? Perhaps in malnourished and already sick, the measles could present more of a problem, which sounds logical. > > > > > > Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS > > > Filed at 12:15 a.m. EST on January 06, 2011 > > > > > > LONDON (AP) †" The first study to link a childhood vaccine to autism was based on doctored information about the children involved, according to a new report on the widely discredited research. > > > > > > The conclusions of the 1998 paper by Wakefield and colleagues was renounced by 10 of its 13 authors and later retracted by the medical journal Lancet, where it was published.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 It is not just the vaccines it's the timing and boosters. You can test to see if a child still has immunity and test to see if they have weak immune systems. We should have a program that allow for parents to get their kids vaccinated without the danger and then there would be no problem. ________________________________ From: <jlhank80@...> Sent: Tue, January 11, 2011 12:21:14 PM Subject: Re: Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRES right on . -Jen > > > > > > Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED >PRESS > > > Filed at 12:15 a.m. EST on January 06, 2011 > > > > > > LONDON (AP) †" The first study to link a childhood vaccine to autism was >based on doctored information about the children involved, according to a new >report on the widely discredited research. > > > > > > > The conclusions of the 1998 paper by Wakefield and colleagues was >renounced by 10 of its 13 authors and later retracted by the medical journal >Lancet, where it was published.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Thats what we did, we tested for the titers, presented them to our family doctor and got her to write a deferrment so that our son could go to school. I am not pro unneccesarry vaccines, but I try not to over react either. We dont get flu vacinnes because thay are by their nature untested for long term effects and frequently oversold to the public. However I do believe some vaccines save many lives, especially in developing nations.  From: Bill klimas <klimas_bill@...> Subject: Re: Re: Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRES Date: Tuesday, January 11, 2011, 1:35 PM  It is not just the vaccines it's the timing and boosters.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 The continual press about Wakefield and his study makes me question the motives behind the story more than anything. This thing will not die and the more headlines I see about it, the more I question the motives behind them. It's almost funny. I'm not trying to get in a huge debate about it, just making an observation. Big Pharms conduct their own clinical trials all the time; with favorable results. Hmm. Only later to find out that the product was actually harmful, deadly, etc and pulled off the shelves. Even though this is a regular occurrence, we don't keep seeing headlines about it. If this guys was just a crackpot who falsified data, paid people off and whatever else he is being accused of...okay, we got the memo! The more that is printed up about this guy whose life has been destroyed by this...the more I believe he is not a crackpot...based solely on the fact that somebody won't let this die. Just interesting, that's all. Lastly, when people talk about the measles, I always wait for them to finish the sentence about their experience. " You got the measles and what??? Did your head explode...blood come out of your eyes...what, please tell me? Honestly, I don't know and am very confused as to what ACTUALLY happens and what we're TOLD can happen. What is true and what is folklore?? Here's what I've heard so far- " we'll, I got a fever. " Okay, you got a fever. I can deal with a fever. I'm sure this is not the case for everyone, just as a favorable reaction to vaccines is not the same for everyone. I just don't want to believe lies perpetuated to scare me into doing something that as far as I've heard, may not be as scary as it seems. That said, I'm sure if the vaccines did not exist for measles, maybe many more people would have it and it would be deadly and scary. Just sayin', praise God, I haven't seen it. ________________________________ From: <jlhank80@...> Sent: Tue, January 11, 2011 9:21:14 AM Subject: Re: Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRES right on . -Jen > > > > > > Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED >PRESS > > > Filed at 12:15 a.m. EST on January 06, 2011 > > > > > > LONDON (AP) †" The first study to link a childhood vaccine to autism was >based on doctored information about the children involved, according to a new >report on the widely discredited research. > > > > > > > The conclusions of the 1998 paper by Wakefield and colleagues was >renounced by 10 of its 13 authors and later retracted by the medical journal >Lancet, where it was published.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Ok I have first hand seen what it can do. When I was 7 I lived in itaquatiria in the amazon rain forest for 4 months while my father did field research. The local indians had pitted faces from measles, those that had not died. Indigenous peoples who do not have a millennia of exposure to Eurasian diseases die from them. This is nor big pharma talking this is me. The village also had lepers and people dying of malaria who would have loved big pharma if they weren't too poor. We are fortunate enough to live in a country where we can take healthcare and basic nutrition for granted. No folklore, you can google the images if you want.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Measles killed 160,000 people in 2008 worldwide. Most were small children. It is a viral illness that is very contagious. Before immunizations, in the US, everyone got the infection. About 1 in 1000 developed encephalitis, or a brain infection from the measles. That leads to blindness, death or brain damage. In poor countries, malnourished kids die about 20 percent of the time. Vitamin a supplementation can probably cut the death rate by half. Most measles in the US is imported in from other countries. MMR is about 85-95% effective in giving immunity. Bruce > Lastly, when people talk about the measles, I always wait for them to finish the > sentence about their experience.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I understand that this is what data is out there. What I was saying, thankfully, is I don't even know a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend who died from measles. I'm not down playing it and understand that those affected by such a tragedy are completely devastated. So not down playing it, just don't 100% buy it. But I'm kind of a skeptic now. I also don't believe the flu statistics. The info isn't always correct. It depends who's controlling the info. Just like the WHO saying the swine flu was going to be a pandemic. They used very serious language which ignited fear in everyone and it wasn't true. As soon as I heard such language, I thought, this sounds like a pharmaceutical ad and sure enough, it came out that they have pharm. ties. That is bias and negligent. Also, when measles outbreaks are reported; (I know we still get them), they never state if the people were vaccinated or not...unless of course they were not. I suspect some were vaccinated and still got the measles. This is interesting, if women got the measles naturally, the mother would pass on a natural immunity to measles to her children but not if she got her immunity through vaccination. Anyway, I know the " supposed " facts that are out there. I'm just trying to figure this out like everyone else on this list and trying to be extra careful about believing everything I read without checking the source and using common sense. ________________________________ From: Clint <dr_bruce_40@...> Sent: Wed, January 12, 2011 11:45:33 AM Subject: Re: Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRES Measles killed 160,000 people in 2008 worldwide.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 http://www.thinktwice.com/measles.htm So much more to read online. Data shows measles was on its way out and vaccines had nothing to do with it. Might want to read about the supposed " immunity " that people get from vaccines. It's a false immunity. Measles outbreaks occur EVERY YEAR and most of the cases are vaccinated. The vaccine doesn't work. Same with other " vaccine preventable diseases. " Vaccines are child abuse IMO. If you read the info obtained from our own government via the freedom of information act you could see it all for yourself. But, most people don't want to do that.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Measles are rare in the us now. The data are availible for the US for the year 2008. There were 131 cases. They were imported from abroad, as measles is no longer endemic to the US. About 95% were either unvaccinated or their vaccination status was unknown. About 2/3 of these cases were persons unvaccinated due to philisophical or Religious reasons. No one died. 15 were sick enough to be hospitalized. Natural maternal infection does not confer immunity to the children. Neither does immunization of the mother confer immunity to the offspring.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 I know this is a very sensitive topic with strong opinions on both side - but what I have observed trying to look at it objectively is that it is rampant with conflict of interest which is often not disclosed (Doctors (peds), Press, Public Health officials). As there are two components that are trying to be managed, individual & public health, the recommendations cannot always be supportive of both in every situation. Dr King has some good papers on this topic that is being discussed on this website This one is a good read although it is definitely more on the side of the knowing misrepresetnations http://dr-king.com/docs/101001_VaccinesVaccinationProgramsAndKnowingMisrepresent\ ationsb.pdf A snippet below from the paper reminded me of the some of the posts in this thread - which may very well be propagating the fear that is alluded to unknowingly as if they were objective facts: " To sell these less-than-effective, less-than-proven-safe, and much-more-expensive vaccines, the Establishment continually reminds the public of the horrors of the deaths from “vaccine-preventable disease†for certain highly contagious and lethal diseases from the era before vaccines (e.g., smallpox, polio and measles), diseases that have disappeared (e.g., smallpox) or only occur at low levels (e.g., measles) in the USA today, while ignoring or minimizing the following critical realities: ) that: a) are less-and-less curative and/or effective and seem to be more-and-more harmful are being approved and delivered to the public as preventives for conditions whose incidence, in many instances, may have been caused or aggravated by other vaccines, drugs, processed and genetically altered foods, and chemicals that the Establishment markets to the public as “safe†without any real proofs of the short-term and, more importantly, true long-term safety for any of these Establishment products. ♦ Clean water, sanitation, basic food safety, improved housing, and antibiotics did more to reduce the level of the disease-related injuries and fatalities from the highly contagious and lethal diseases than the vaccines for them have done, ♦ Without any vaccine, scarlet fever, a highly contagious and lethal disease, has virtually disappeared ♦ Many of today’s vaccines are for diseases that: a) are not highly contagious (e.g., influenza and hepatitis or do not have any significant mortality levels (e.g., chickenpox, mumps, rubella, and tetanus). ♦ The obviously vaccine-related increases in chronic diseases, especially chronic diseases that have a significant autoimmune component, like asthma, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome, lupus, and diabetes, to name a few, as well as epidemic increases in abnormal childhood neurodevelopment, abnormal behaviors, other developmental abnormalities and bowel disorders.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Bruce, this is what I read in a report that was sent to me. It's called the Blaylock report. I will copy and paste it below. It may be hard to verify or dispute these days as most of us have been vaccinated or our children have. When young girls catch measles naturally, they in turn are able to pass this immune protection on to their babies when they are older, both by antibody transfer through the placenta and by way of breast milk after giving birth. Vaccination with MMR prevents girls from getting the measles, and it also keeps their immunity from being transferred to their future children, who are then born utterly unprotected. ________________________________ From: Clint <dr_bruce_40@...> Sent: Thu, January 13, 2011 8:10:47 AM Subject: Re: Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRES Measles are rare in the us now.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Dawn, Here¹s a study on ³passive immunity² you might find interesting. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14646978 It found that ³Passive acquired immunity in infants born to mothers who have had measles lasts longer than in infants born to vaccinated mothers. Nearly two thirds of infants (65.4%) in the 7th month of life did not have sufficient maternally derived neutralizing antibodies to protect against measles.³ It would be interesting to know how/if nursing protects them a bit longer. Anyway, thought you might find that interesting. Caroline G.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 I have a newborn and have been reassured that vaccines don't cause autism but may weaken the immune system? I'm still so confused whether I should vaccinate my newborn it not to. Any thoughts?? My 4 year old totally regressed after the MMR. it was a nightmare and don't want to go through it all again...

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 I would be very careful vaccinating a baby, whose immune system is not fully developed, especially when you already have an ASD child. Maybe you should see Dr.’s Goldberg or who are treating the immune system. If you are nursing I believe you should be on a low allergen diet so you don’t expose your baby to further immune system triggers. _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of W Sent: January 15, 2011 11:32 PM Subject: Re: Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED PRES It is a personal decision but I'd be very, very careful vaccinating a sibling of an ASD child.

Hold off and do more research. If the hep B is given at birth the kid is several times more likely to develop autism (I think it was 2,5 to 3 times more likely). If the DTAP is given the first 6 mos of life then the child has a much greater chance of having asthma. The flu vaccine still has mercury. The chicken pox vaccine can wear off and if you get chicken pox as an adult it's much worse......best to get chicken pox as a child. My NT son I held off vaccinating till he was older and we did only a few vaccines then well spaced out. He is perfectly healthy and smart. Most of his peers are not healthy. In his kindergarten class, 5 out of 20 kids had severe food allergies. My son is now 12 years old. He know several kids who have diabetes, asthma, learning disabilities and bevaioral issues.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Okay, simple question. Why the H*** would a newborn baby need the Hep B vaccine if the mother does not have Hep B? I am a nurse, always advocated for vaccines until my son disappeared 3 days after his 18 month shots. I would not vaccinate a child now until at least 4, then maybe I would be choosy and have them very spread out. You can never tell who will regress, my son was perfectly fine before his vaccines. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Study Linking Vaccine to Autism Was Fraud, Journal ReportsBy THE ASSOCIATED > > > > >PRESS > > > > > > > Filed at 12:15 a.m. EST on January 06, 2011 > > > > > > > > > > > > > > LONDON (AP) †" The first study to link a childhood vaccine to autism was > > > > >based on doctored information about the children involved, according to a new > > > > >report on the widely discredited research. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > The conclusions of the 1998 paper by Wakefield and colleagues was > > > > >renounced by 10 of its 13 authors and later retracted by the medical journal > > > > >Lancet, where it was published.
