Obama Climbs On The Vaccine Bandwagon
Obama Climbs On The Vaccine
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-...i_b_97969.html Posted April 22, 2008 | 11:29 AM (EST) Breaking Home News Note from Ilena Rosenthal: First McCain ... now Obama ... thank you to the brave vaccination awareness advocates who have refused to be silenced ... www.ilenarose.blogspot.com Barring some big Clinton blowout in Pennsylvania today, the next President of the United States will unequivocally support research into the growing evidence of some link between vaccines and autism. Republican John McCain has already expressed his belief that vaccines and the mercury containing preservative thimerosal could be implicated in what he has rightly termed an "autism epidemic." Yesterday, at a rally in Pennsylvania, Barack Obama had this rather surprising thing to say: "We've seen just a skyrocketing autism rate. Some people are suspicious that it's connected to the vaccines. This person included. The science right now is inconclusive, but we have to research it." So there you have it, our next President will share the views of such radical fringe crazies as, well, me, Democrat Robert Kennedy, Jr., Republican Joe Scarborough, former NIH and Red Cross chief Bernadine Healy, and several researchers at Harvard, Johns Hopkins, the Universities of California and Washington and elsewhere. All of us agree: Current evidence suggests that vaccines could be a contributing factor in some cases of autism, and more research is immediately required. And yes, now the comments to this piece will come flying in, repeating the tired mantra that "this case is closed," that vaccines and thimerosal have been "completely vindicated," and that people like me are just trying to scare the public and drive them away from vaccines, leaving their children vulnerable and sick. Of course, none of the above is true. So stay tuned. To begin with, government researchers are currently looking into a number of factors that may trigger autism, including vaccines, their ingredients and the crowded vaccine schedule itself. Secondly, on April 11th, I attended a top-level meeting in Washington where vaccine safety officials discussed all of the above issues, and more. Included on the Federal Draft Research Agenda for vaccine safety are now questions such as: Can vaccines cause neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism? Can vaccines in children with mitochondrial dysfunction cause significant "neurological deterioration?" Can the combination live-virus measles, mumps and rubella vaccine cause seizures and long term damage in children? Can vaccines cause autoimmune disease? Can thimerosal cause tics or Tourette syndrome? Can attenuated viruses in vaccines cause asthma in children? So, no matter who is President next year, top government researchers will be examining the role of vaccines in autism and other childhood illnesses. Thus, the declarations of both McCain and, now, Obama, make good scientific sense. But there is more. Dozens of autism cases (and perhaps more) currently filed in so-called Vaccine Court will almost certainly be compensated this year. Why? Because a little girl named Hannah Poling with a supposedly rare mitochondrial condition was recently compensated for her own vaccine injuries, including autism and epilepsy. But I have personally identified at least a dozen (and there are reports of many more) children with cases in the court who meet the exact same medical criteria as Hannah, and whose cases will almost surely be compensated as well -- each time with the attendant media fanfare. My prediction is that, by Election Day, few Americans will still believe there is absolutely no evidence to link vaccines to at least some cases of regressive autism. So the remarks by McCain and Obama not only reflect good science, they reflect good politics as well. |

Vaccine is certainly implicated in autism even if it's not likely to
be the sole trigger. What's tragic is that vaccine is so completely unncessary and without scientific basis. |

While I agree with the uselessness and unscientific basis for vaccines and the practice of ritual immunization, provide us with another causative agent or agents that have the capacity to do the harm to a developing infant that mercury, aluminum, and the other toxoids in vaccines have been shown to be able to do. I suggest that the injected ethylmercury from thimerosal has the capacity to do much more harm than the methylmercury from ingested fish, particularly since the level of mercury intoxication is nearly 1000 times greater in concentration. I further suggest that aluminum can and does do similar harm. The synergism of aluminum and mercury is again at least 100 times more toxic that either alone. The toxoids in the DPT shot are the same toxoids used to study encephalopathy in lab animals. The high pitched screaming of the kids is due to the huge migrane headache caused by the brain swelling from the toxoids. The MMR toxoids have been shown to be involved in the terrible gut problems of the autistic. Would a 2x4 upside your head convince you that being hit with a piece of wood swung with force hurts or would you need some more convincing?

Ever notice all those kids coming down with polio? Staying home from school from measles? Having birth defects from rubella? Not anymore. Vaccines completely eliminated polio in the Western hemisphrere, nearly completely stopped measles (with all cases from sources outside the US), decreased invasive Hib disease, nearly eliminated rubella-related birth defects, decrease the incidence and severity of chicken pox, decreased the rates of diptheria, tetanus and purtussis. If you want to decrease the chances of your kid from getting sick or dying, then vaccines are necessary. Jeff |

Jeff Most intelligent folks have figured out the enormous benefit seen from vaccines, have far outweighed any small risk vaccinations present. People who would promote an anti vaccination agenda in this day and age, are either too young to remember the world with Polio, Rubella, Whooping Cough, Mumps, etc.; OR they are too old and senile to remember it! |

What's tragic is that vaccine is so completely unncessary and without scientific basis. So you keep claiming. Since you're immune to evidence, so you'll go on claiming.

Really? Ever notice all those kids coming down with polio? Staying home
from school from measles? Having birth defects from rubella? Not anymore. No, we just traded those diseases for cancer, asthma, autism, diabetes, epilepsy, etc...ALL of these diseases are now epidemic in our country. 1 out of 6 children have some form of developmental disorder. How did this happen? On Apr 22, 8:09 pm, Jeff wrote: PeterB wrote: Vaccine is certainly implicated in autism even if it's not likely to be the sole trigger.

How did this happen? Have you considered, fast food restauraunts, additives in food, chemicals in the environment, the drug usage of the parents, etc.? I can understand you may wish the vaccine industry is to blame, because you can more readily target their deep pockets for litigation dollars. But the fact remains that autism continues to increase at alarming rates, inspite of the fact that thimerosol has been removed from childhood vaccines since 2001, with the exception of the flu vaccine. Most children don't get the flu shot. Also keep this in mind. About a week ago, settlement for all those Ford Explorer roll-overs came to an end. Guess the outcome - $25 MILLION dollars went to the attorneys. But, the Explorer owners get only a $500. coupon to use when buying a new Ford car - with the caveat that they redeem the coupon within 30 days! Folks need to rethink the logic of spending years in litigation that only makes attorneys rich! |

Yet vaccines have nothing to do with any of the diseases you mention. If I am incorrect, please cite your scientific evidence. 1 out of 6 children have some form of developmental disorder. How did this happen? You tell me. And if you want to implicate vaccines, please provide the scientific evidence. Coincidence is not causation.
