It does seem like things are stepping up.
I came across this by Sharyl Attkison http://fullmeasure.news/news/cover-story/the-vaccination-debate?fbclid=IwAR1suseqvjxaHXtCuafYlt-CAmFRwUz3qjKetXmSlAD8No5QCyhkMowevzw
FTA
“We spoke to 11 current and former members of Congress and staff who claim they faced pressure, bullying or threats when they raised vaccine safety questions. Several of them agreed to appear on camera.
Burton: There’s no question in my mind whatsoever that the pharmaceutical industry had a great influence with people over at the CDC and FDA. There’s no question in my mind.
Republican Dan Burtonformer Chairman of the House Oversight Committeehas an autistic grandson.
Burton: I am not against vaccinations.
He pursued vaccine investigations in the early 2000s. Beth Clay was one of his staffers.
Clay: There was a lot of pressure from people on the Hill.
When you say people on the hill were exerting pressure, what kind of people? Colleagues?
Clay: Colleagues, there were pharmaceutical lobbyists. The pharmaceutical lobbyists had, you know, they are the same people that have been entrenched. They can walk into any office in Capitol Hill, and they’ll talk to staff, they’ll talk to members and they’ll encourage them to discourage, our investigation.
Sharyl: At the risk of stating the obvious why did they have that kind of access to members?
Clay: It’s money. And if you look at the donations over the last 20 years, the pharmaceutical industry, and Republican and Democrat, they’re nonpartisan. They put money everywhere.
Former Congressman, Dr. Dave Weldon, a Republican, says he got the message loud and clear.
Sharyl: If you would want to hold a hearing on an issue like vaccines and autism, your own leadership might fight you on that because of the financial influence, the pharmaceutical industry
Dave Weldon: They wouldnt fight you. Theyd kill it. It’s dead. They don’t even want to discuss it. It’s dead on arrival. If you, if you as an individual member want to take on the pharmaceutical industries. It’s forget it.
Sharyl: Can you describe an incident or just how it, how that would go?
Weldon: It would typically be in a hallway or the street and people would come up to you and say, You know, you really need to, you know, back off on this. It could be, it could be bad for the community or bad for the country or bad for you.
Weldon says hes generally pro-vaccine, depending on the patient and the shotand gives flu shots to adults. We asked him to review Dr. Zimmermans new affidavit.
Weldon: I found his affidavit and testimony through that affidavit to be consistent with my opinions. That some children can get an autism spectrum disorder from a vaccine.
Republican Bill Posey is a current member of Congress.
Rep. Bill Posey: I dont have to tell you that industry is a very, very powerful industry. Matter of fact, I dont know of anyone more powerful than that industry.
Posey says his own party leaders twice promised to hold hearings on the topic, only to scuttle them in the end.
Hazlehurst who happens to be a criminal prosecutor— was scheduled to be a witness at one such Congressional hearing. Two weeks before the hearing in 2013, he briefed Congressional staff.
Hazlehurst: I presented at that Congressional briefing and I explained in that hearing, if I did to a criminal in a court of law what the United States Department of Justice did to vaccine injured children, I would be disbarred and I would be facing criminal charges. I think that scared the hell out of them.
The hearing was abruptly cancelled. Meantime, Dr. Zimmerman the one-time expert used to debunk vaccine autism claimsnow says several of his own patients got autism from vaccines. They include Yates Hazlehurst.”
Here is how Congress works, or doesn’t work, the money quote. “You know, you really need to, you know, back off on this. It could be, it could be bad for the community or bad for the country or bad for you.

CDC and FDA, a pox on both houses
More from Sharyl Attkisons article linked above.
“Dr. Zimmerman declined our interview request and referred us to his sworn affidavit. It says: On June 15, 2007, he took aside the Department of Justiceor DOJ lawyers he worked for defending vaccines in vaccine court. He told them that hed discovered exceptions in which vaccinations could cause autism. I explained that in a subset of children, vaccine induced fever and immune stimulation did cause regressive brain disease with features of autism spectrum disorder.
Kennedy: This panicked the two DOJ attorneys and they immediately fired Zimmerman. That was on a Friday and over the weekend they called Zimmerman and said his services would no longer be needed. They wanted to silence him.
Days after the Department of Justice lawyers fired Dr. Zimmerman as their expert witness, he alleges, they went on to misrepresent his opinion to continue to debunk autism claims. Records show that on June 18, 2007, a DOJ attorney Dr. Zimmerman spoke to told vaccine court, We know [Dr. Zimmermans] views on the issue...There is no scientific basis for a connection between vaccines and autism. Dr. Zimmerman now calls that highly misleading.
Meantime, CDCwhich promotes vaccines and monitors vaccine safety— never disclosed that the governments own one-time medical expert concluded vaccines can cause autism - and to this day public health officials deny thats the case.”
The Government’s EXPERT witness determined that Vaccines CAN CAUSE Autism in some children so they promptly FIRED him and covered it up.
Meanwhile as the number of vaccines given to children has steadily increased since the mid 1980’s so has the autism rate.
The Centers for Disease Control just released their latest findings about autism:
In 2014 the rate of autism was 1 in 45 children
In 2015 it rose slightly to 1 in 43
In 2016, the number jumped up to 1 in 36 kids
This is evil and our government is responsible for damaging/killing all these kids.
Interesting. Attkison is someone I trust. Big pharma is likely behind the huge number of people on anxiety, ADDHD, hormone, on and on and on pills. Americans like a pill for a quick fix. When needed, thank God. But it sure seems we are way over medicated and it is accepted.
