PRESS RELEASE

The Autism Explosion, the Vaccine Connection, and the

Autism Research Institute's Mercury Detoxification Consensus Conference

February 9-11, 2001, Dallas, Texas

An enormous and alarming unexplained increase in the prevalence of autism

is being reported, on an almost daily basis, in the U.S., the U.K., and

elsewhere.California maintains what is probably the world's best and most

systematic database on autism and other developmental disabilities, which

includes children who are formally diagnosed by strict criteria for

acceptance into a comprehensive entitlement program. California reports

an increase in the prevalence of autism of over 1,000% (in autism, not

mental retardation, epilepsy nor cerebral palsy) over a 20-year period.

Similar enormous increases have been reported in New Jersey, and in

several places

in the U.K., in the Middle East, and in Asia. The increase is certainly

not the result of greater awareness nor better diagnosis.While the

reality of the increase is beyond reasonable doubt, there is great

controversy over the cause. The most plausible cause relates to changes

in the vaccination programs over the past two decades.

These include:

1. The extraordinary increase in the number of vaccines given to children

from birth to age two,

which has risen from 8 in 1980 to 22 in 2000.

2. The amount of extremely toxic mercury (used as a preservative) in many

vaccines. Some infants have received in one day as much as 100 times the

amount of mercury the Environmental

Protection Agency says is the maximum allowable daily exposure for an

adult. Mercury is not only neurotoxic by itself, it also damages the

immune system

so the child becomes unable to protect itself against damage from the

viruses in vaccines.

3. The combination of three vaccines, Measles, Mumps, Rubella, previously

given singly, into one, the MMR. The prevalence increase started in the

U.S. in the early 1980s, shortly after the triple-vaccine MMR shot was

introduced, while the increase in the U.K. started 10 years later, soon

after the triple MMR was introduced there. Much attention has been

focused on the MMR shot itself, whereas in all probability it is a

combination of the three factors listed above: the increasing number of

vaccines, the large amount of mercury, and the inherent danger of the

triple vaccine. (In a January, 2001 article in the Journal of Adverse

Drug Reactions, several British experts who were involved in the safety

evaluation of the MMR vaccine stated that the vaccine safety testing had

not been adequate and that the vaccine should not have been licensed).The

MMR vaccine is also especially suspect because laboratories in England,

Ireland, and Japan have found evidence of MMR vaccine viruses in the

intestinal tracts of autistic children, but not in control group,

non-autistic children.The role of mercury has come to light only in the

past 18 months, after it was realized that the amount of mercury

preservative in many vaccines (although not the MMR vaccine) is grossly

in excess of the permissible standards.

During the past year, a number of physicians from throughout the United

States who have been working with autistic children have reported

extremely good results in improving the health and behavior of autistic

children when the mercury in the children's bodies were removed by

a systematic process of detoxification. Some of these physicians, who

have specialized in the treatment of autistic children for a number of

years, and who have treated many hundreds of autistic children, report

that no other treatment has brought about the remarkable improvement that

they have seen in many cases of mercury detoxification.

Detoxification is not simple, and there are many competing detoxification

protocols.In response to this situation, the Autism Research Institute

convened a Consensus Conference on the

Detoxification of Autistic Children in Dallas, Texas, February 9th

through 11th, 2001. The attendees were 25 carefully selected physicians

and scientists knowledgeable about mercury and mercury detoxification.

The 15 physicians present included 7 who were parents of autistic

children and who had detoxified their own children with excellent

results. The physician

attendees present had treated well over 3,000 patients for heavy metal

poisoning, about 1,500 of them being autistic children. The chemists,

toxicologists, and other scientists present had a combined total of

almost 90 years of experience in studying the toxicology of mercury. The

purpose of the meeting was to arrive at a consensus document which would

delineate the

safest and most effective methods of detoxifying autistic children. Nine

candidate detoxification protocols, including five submitted by

non-attendees, were considered in detail by the conferees.The meeting was

an outstanding success. Despite some initial concern that the various

areas of disagreement would prove devisive, the participants resolved

the controversial issues harmoniously and arrived at the consensus

position that was hoped for.The Autism Research Institute will issue its

consensus report on the detoxification of autistic children at the

earliest possible date--most likely in mid-March--after the participants

have had an opportunity to review and approve the document.
