What Is Being Covered Up and Why?
February 21, 2009
 

It seems that the whole world is talking about the possible vaccine link to Autism. So what is it that pharmaceutical industries and Governments are trying to hide? As more and more cover ups and conspiracies appear on the Child Health Safety website, I took a closer look. All around the world more and more children are being diagnosed with the label Autistic Spectrum Disorder. Almost everyone we speak to has an Autistic child in the family or knows someone who has. With 1 child in every 150 children labeled Autistic this is hardly surprising, so what is it that is causing this huge rise in Autism and children suffering from various complex neurological disorders? Is it environmental? Is it genetic? Is it the vaccines? Or is it something else?

Well, the way I see it if it was purely the vaccines, then all children would be Autistic so that puts paid to the vaccine theory, or does it? What if some children have a genetic predisposition to an interaction with certain chemicals or substances in the vaccines? What amounts to an adverse reaction to a vaccine? How many children have minor adverse reactions, such as a sore arm or slight irritability after a vaccine that go unreported? How does anyone really know what goes on inside our children’s bodies when we give them vaccine after vaccine? Simple answer is we don't, we simply have not got a clue. We don't know if a sore arm after one vaccine and then a bout of sickness after another will lead to Autism if yet another vaccine is given. What is really behind the MMR theory? Why do certain professionals swear that vaccines are causing this huge rise in Autism and why is it when they speak of their concerns they are professionally destroyed?

I think to really study this we have to see when this huge rise in Autism began to occur. Well looking at various graphs around the Internet the rise in Autism began to occur in the early 1990's.

We know that Thimerosal was first added to vaccines in 1930's. Thimerosal is a mercury-based compound used as a carrier and preservative in many vaccines past and present. Thimerosal is extremely toxic and carries the toxic symbol. It is typically 49.6% mercury. It was first put into vaccines by the company Eli Lilly in the early 1930's as a bactericide; this was to make it possible for multi dose vials to be used instead of single dose vials which were more expensive.

The DPT was introduced in 1957 and gradually more and more vaccines entered the vaccine schedule most containing Thimerosal.

Gradually over time more and more children began to show early signs of Autism. A particular rise was seen just after the MMR in 1987 was introduced and this concerned professionals who were seeing more and more children showing signs of complex disorders. Professionals began to worry and express their concerns one such professional was Lisa Blakemore-Brown. Lisa an educational psychologist began to notice a rise in children showing signs of Autism and associated disorders, such as hyperactivity, tics and poor concentration. She saw children presenting with various patterns of neurological disorders, which she felt were interweaving together, giving children very complex patterns of disabilities which she aptly named Tapestry Disorders, due to their interweaving nature. The more she tried to express her concerns the more her views were dismissed. She first expressed her concerns in 1997.She believed that Thimerosal in the vaccines was the cause. She also saw links with Thimerosal being used in vaccines and the rise in cot death. She wrote several letters to the UK Government expressing her fears and also the fear that many parents were being falsely accused of Munchausen by Proxy when they tried to get answers for their children's disabilities, all of which were ignored, the ones that were answered were answered curtly and abruptly simply brushing her fears aside in a rather patronizing way. One such letter is a letter written to Lisa in 2002 from Jackie Smith MP

The MMR was added to the vaccine schedule in 1987 and the rise in Autism rocketed even further this was proved in a Japanese Study. With this study you will see data from formal medical peer referred papers showing that the number of Japanese children developing autism in Japan was directly related to the number who received MMR and single measles vaccines. This is proof the vaccines caused autism in Japanese children and so will do the same to children around the world.

In 2005 a paper by two Japanese researchers, Hideo Honda and Yasuo Shimizu, was published in an English psychiatric journal with psychiatrist Professor Sir Michael Rutter also named as an author. The paper was claimed to be proof MMR vaccine could not cause autistic spectrum disorders. But the authors failed to provide the full picture, as they do, remember Dr Jayne Donegan speaking of tweaking results of studies they made invalid claims. Those claims were based on inadequate research containing basic flaws.

When the flaws are identified and corrected, the paper provides unusually strong evidence, not normally seen, implicating vaccines, as a cause of Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD).The paper shows, when corrected with the missing data, Autistic Spectrum Disorder numbers increased and decreased in direct proportion to the total number of measles and MMR vaccines given to children.

So why did the Japanese professionals and Michael Rutter tweak results. Could it be perhaps that he like all the professionals in my article Pharma have no scruples when it comes to meddling professionals has strong links to Glaxo Smith Kline the manufacturer of the MMR? In fact like Dr Ellison that the GMC used as their prosecution witness in the Dr Donegan case, he has been a paid expert witness on their behalf in the UK MMR vaccine damage litigation, also Professor Rutter is one of the main prosecution witnesses in the British GMC case against Dr Andrew Wakefield, Dr Simon Murch and Professor Walker-Smith. Of course this is a pure coincidence, although I beginning not to believe in coincidences anymore as my common sense is somewhat clouding my judgment.

In a study by Carol Stott, Ph.D.; Mark Blaxill; Andrew J.Wakefield,M.B., FRCS it again shows a strong coalition with the introduction of the MMR in 1987 and the increase in Autism. So why are these studies being ignored? In 2000 a secret meeting was held without public scrutiny between the vaccine manufacturers, representatives, 51 US scientists, and a representative of the World Health Organization. This was to discuss a study by US Centers for Disease Control expert Dr Thomas Verstraeten of increasing doses of Thimerosal and neuro-developmental disorders in children. Verstraeten used US Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD) data, an official US governmental data bank on the children from US health maintenance organizations (HMOs).

Verstraeten´s study showed a dose-response relationship between Thimerosal in vaccines and neuro-developmental disorders in children that held up to rigorous statistical analyses. This means Verstraeten´s study showed a causal association between the amount of Thimerosal in vaccines a child received and the extent to which the child developed the symptoms of impaired brain development. These ranged from tics, speech impairment to symptoms of and full autism. The discussions can be read in the transcript of the Simpsonwood Conference obtained by US organization SafeMinds under Freedom of Information. Three years on Verstreten joined the staff of Glaxo Smith Kline and a different paper emerges, this one is called Safety of Thimerosal-Containing Vaccines: A Two-Phased Study of Computerized Health Maintenance Organization Databases this one has a different set of data from the HMO. A complete picture of this story along with even more damning information on the MMR vaccine and Autism can be found on Child Health Safety website.


So why were secret meetings held and why were the results of the findings not made public? During the Simpsonwood meeting no photocopying was allowed and no person attending was allowed to remove any paperwork. Why was this? It is only because of the Freedom of Information Act that the general public is becoming fully aware of secrets locked away and hidden from their knowledge. Even now with all this data becoming available Governments and drug companies are still insisting that these vaccines are safe. Yet data freely available on the Internet seems to tell a very different story.

Another interesting pattern emerging is how Glaxo Smith Kline is paying in various ways dodgy professionals to make complaints, to be their expert witnesses, to destroy difficult but truthful professionals and to generally cover up what is going on. Why would that be? If Glaxo has nothing to hide, then why the cover up? I am particularly interested in the Brian Deer link because Brian Deer a journalist was commissioned by the Sunday Times to write a series of extremely damning article about Dr Wakefield. Dr Wakefield is another doctor being investigated by the British GMC for speaking out about the MMR and its links to Autism. It now materializes that the complainant was in fact Deer himself. It's very suspicious as Brian Deer was hired by a then Sunday Times editor Pauk Nuki, whose father, Professor George Nuki had sat on the UK Government Committee with others some of whom were implicated in attacks on Wakefield and were also involved in approving the now proven dangerous and withdrawn Pluserix MMR vaccine.

The Judge who made the decision which effectively ended the UK litigation, Judge Nigel Davis, is the brother of Glaxo board director Crispin Davis. Pluserix MMR was made and supplied by a GlaxoSmithKline company. It was given to many of the children in the UK litigation. Crispin Davis had been brought onto the Glaxo Board only 2 months before The Sunday Times hired Brian Deer to write the articles attacking Wakefield. Crispin Davis was also the CEO of the owners of The Lancet. Judge Davis later claimed that it had not occurred to him there might be a conflict of interest. (All this information can be found on links provided)

Interested? Well also sitting with Professor George Nuki in that UK Government Committee was Professor Sir Roy Meadow. Now Sir Roy Meadow had sat in other notorious meetings on the adverse reactions to vaccines back in the 1980's. Sir Roy Meadow was involved in meetings with reference to the Safety of Vaccines as part of the Joint Sub Committee on Adverse Reactions to Vaccination and Immunization in the 1980's.This indicates that he is fully aware of the harmful effects that vaccines can have on children. However, to this day he still gives evidence as an Expert Witness in MSBP cases ,where babies have died very shortly after vaccine, while stating that vaccines 'could not' have attributed to their death. Surely these documents show that Sir Roy Meadow has a clear conflict of interest. Even more interesting is that he was the Expert Witness at the Sally Clark case

You have to wonder if he too was receiving money from Glaxo Smith Kline don't you? All this amounts to one big cover up. Drug companies are covering up the damage that is being systematically done to our children. I would call this 'Making the facts fit the theory'. The problem is every day more and more is being uncovered and they are all running round like headless chickens. Can they continue to hide the truth much longer? I doubt it. It has even materialized that the Bush administration had massive family ties to drugs firm Eli Lilly

The problem is when the general public watch videos such as the Hidden Truth they really begin to see what the Governments and Pharmaceutical Industries having been trying to hide for years. It looks like the professionals like Lisa Blakemore-Brown, Dr Jayne Donegan, Dr Andrew Wakefield, Dr Simon Murch, Professor Walker-Smith, Dr Peter Mansfield, Prof Gordon Stewart, Dr Mark Geire and Journalist Melanie Phillips and many more were right along.

Apologies in writing to them all would be appreciated.
