The Autistic Child -
Jean Shaw© -
....................................................
In 1993 my son was four years old and received a diagnosis of autism. It was probably
the worst day of my life.
At the time autism was quite rare. I couldn't find anyone
in my local area who had it and most people had never heard of it. Those that had
automatically thought of Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man. The statistics then were 4 out
of 10,000.
Fast forward to 2006 and autism is a word on everyone's lips. You may
not know what it is but you will have heard of it or know some family affected. Statistically
it now stands at 1 out of 156.
And the big question is WHY?
Could it be mercury,
the second most toxic substance on the planet used in many childhood vaccines as
a preservative under the name of thimerosal?
I think so, and what if a bit of aluminium
and formaldehyde is mixed in for good measure? How can a young child's developing
immune system possibly cope?
Vaccines play a very important role in eradicating preventable communicable diseases.
The theory is if you put a weakened version of a live virus into someone their immune
system will send out antibodies to fight. Hopefully, after a bit of a tussle the
antibodies win, the body remembers the foe and should the virus attack in its full
strength at a later stage it's prepared for battle.
What happens though if your immune
system is too weakened to fight?
When someone contracts a virus naturally it passes
through the skin or mucous substances in the nose and throat. The body has a bit
of a warning. Childhood vaccines are injected directly into supposedly healthy babies.
There is no warning.
Vaccines contain the weakened live virus and also preservatives
and stablisers including aluminium hydroxide, aluminium hydrochloride, formaldehyde
and thimerosal -
I don't think it's just coincidence the amount
of children falling under the autistic spectrum has increased with the introduction
of more and more recommended childhood vaccines. Do you?
In UK in 1968, Polio and
DPT vaccines were given at 6 months and 7 ½ months. Autism was very rare.
In 1988,
Polio and DPT was given at 3 months, DPT at 5 months and MMR was introduced at 13
months+. Autism rates were still low.
In 1996, Polio, DPT/HIB injections were given
at 2,3 and 4 months, followed by MMR at 13 month +. Autism rates rising rapidly.
In 2006 -
Bottom of Form
The Autism Research institute have an interesting article saying:
"The characteristics of autism and mercury poisoning are so similar as to suggest that many cases of autism are a form of mercury poisoning. For these children the exposure route is childhood vaccines, most of which contain thimerosal.
Exposure to more than 62.5 micrograms of mercury within the first three months of life significantly increases a child's risk of developing some form of neuro-
It appears a child born in the USA in the 1990's would have had 75 micrograms by the time it was 2 months old, and if this vaccinal mercury was not excreted it migrates to the brain.
Thimerosal is 49.6% ethyl mercury and has been around for over 70 years but appears never to have been tested for safety, only efficacy. Amazingly it was banned from vaccines in dogs in USA in 1992 so why did it take until 2002 ( USA) and 2004 (UK) for children?
Could the answer be that to remove it as "a precautionary measure" might just suggest the autism pandemic we are currently experiencing was indeed man made? If so, the governments and medical profession have a lot to answer for.
California boasts the best record keeping systems in the world. In 2004 it reported the first ever nine month sustained reduction in diagnosis of autism for children between 4 and 6 years of age.
These children were born from 1999 onwards from which time the USA made a serious effort to reduce the amount of thimerosal in childhood vaccines.
Makes you think, doesn't it?
