Perhaps it is just a matter of time before there is a study that suggests/proves the links that have been verififed by the testimony of thousands of families.

THere is something out there called the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program or something to that effect that compensates families of children injured or killed by vaccines. So children obviously are being killed and injured by vaccines.

"AUTISM AND VACCINATION: NATIONAL PRESS CONFERENCE AND CONGRESSIONAL HEARING April 6, 2000, features doctors and parents at an NVIC press conference on Capitol Hill and the day long Congressional hearing that followed in the Government Reform Committee."

from www.nivc.org (National Vaccine Information Center).

https://www.nvic.org/Diseases/autismsp.htm
The above is a link to an article discussing the link between vaccines and autism.

an excerpt:
"In 1999, as states revealed skyrocketing rates of autism spectrum disorder among children and a congressional hearing was held in the U.S. Congress, the media began to explore the medical controversy in print and broadcast reports. At the heart of the debate stand a few courageous physicians whose independent, multi-disciplinary approach to investigating the possible biological mechanisms of vaccine-induced autism is serving as a counterweight to the steadfast denials by infectious disease specialists and government health officials defending current mass vaccination policies. As scientific evidence reveals that a portion of autism lies on the vaccine injury spectrum, parents determined to find help for their children are turning to doctors exploring diet and immune modulating therapies."


Autism is just one of purported damaging effects of vaccination. The NVIC website is loaded with information about injuries and deaths related to vaccines. It discusses mental retardation, immune disorders (such as allergies to substances), ADHD, brain swelling.

from the site:
"In their book, Coulter and Fisher described numerous case reports in more than 50 years of medical literature and in new case studies they presented of children, who had been developing normally (and in many cases were of above average intelligence), and then received a DPT shot (often simultaneously with live oral polio vaccine) who then exhibited symptoms of brain inflammation, including high fever, extreme drowsiness, vomiting, high pitched screaming, seizures, and alterations of consciousness. Many of these children were subsequently diagnosed as mentally retarded, epileptic, learning disabled, hyperactive, or autistic.

In a good number of cases, the children who had reacted neurologically to DPT were allergic, particularly to milk, or had been vaccinated while they were sick with a coinciding viral or bacterial infection. In addition to neurological damage, many were also left with chronic gastrointestinal dysfunction and severe allergies, as well as autoimmune disorders such as asthma. The personal or family history of autoimmune disorders appeared to outweigh a history of neurological disorders in terms of being a high risk factor for reacting to DPT, although a history of convulsions in the family was also a high risk factor."

Interesting reading.

Case reports are only worthwhile in pointing out areas where scientific study can clarify. Again, essentially ALL infants get vaccinated; some of these infants get sick afterwards and rarely even die. If an infant tragically dies, say, one week after getting vaccinated, the parent may look at the timing and make an association, where there is no cause and effect. But again, when the data are looked at in an unemotional way, there has--repeatedly and by different independent researchers--been NO association found between autism and vaccines.

If you think that the health industry tries to whitewash this kind of material, back in the 80s it was determined that the oral polio vaccine (Sabin), on rare occasions could give a case of actual polio to an adult if cetain circumstances were met and they were exposed to a child who just received it. It was studied after case reports and found true. They stopped the Sabin and went back to the killed vaccine (Salk).

Another thing: one reason for the "skyrocketing" numbers of autism cases is unquestionably the re-definition and significant broadening of the disorder. Twenty years ago autism was defined narrowly, but now developmental disorders that would NEVER have been called autistic then are called that now.

And, although there are mostly minor risks to immunizations, there are much greater risks to NOT immunizing. Click here, for example or here
