1. all "vaccine preventable" disease are not scary; most children and
adults recover from them with natural immunity (immunity that lasts
a lifetime) provided they are not already "immune compromised".
2. Most vaccines use thimerosal in the manufacturing process and
it is not necessarily put into the package insert of ingredients. In fact,
if the vaccine is thimerosal-free, they often double the amount of other
adjuvants such as aluminum phosphate (or other "activating" ingredients
which are often heavy metals.)
3. Vaccines are toxic and we are experiencing a much worse epidemic
of disabled and neurologically impaired children than any other generation
in history. ~The damage to the entire human genome of this grand and
coerced medical experimentation is unparalleled in history and catastrophic
to our survival as a species (...never mind that we are evolving spiritual beings)

California has just experienced the largest quarterly increase in the
number of new cases of level
one autism in it's history. According to DDS, between July 6, 2001, and
October 4, 2001, a record
number 705 new cases of DSM IV autism entered California's developmental
services system. As
with all of DDS's autism case growth reporting, the 705 new cases do NOT
include other autism
spectrum disorders such as PDD, NOS, Asperger's, etc. The 2001 Third
Quarter report represents a
54% increase over year prior, and shows that autism accounts for 8 new
children entering the
system PER DAY.
In October 2000 level one autism accounted for 28% of the total number
of all new intakes
(autism, cerebral palsy, mental retardation, epilepsy, and conditions
similar to mental
retardation). Now in October 2001 level one autism accounted for 36% of
all new intakes.
California's numbers are significant because they are one of the few
states to actually track, record
and report. Source: California Department of Developmental Services
(DDS).

LAWYERS CLAIM CDC COOKED BOOKS ON MERCURY; SECRET REPORT REVEALED
A leading vaccine injury law group announced today that their firm is
now in possession of an unreleased confidential report authored by
Centers for Disease Control scientists which studied autism as a
potential neurological injury caused by mercury in children's vaccines.
An announcement was made by the law firm of Waters & Kraus, the firm
that filed the first known lawsuit alleging that a mercury preservative
in children's vaccines caused neurological damage to an infant
ultimately
diagnosed with autism. Andy Waters, the lead attorney in the firm,
warned that a different version of the report was eventually made public
and has been cited by the recent Institute of Medicine study as
inconclusive on the issue of whether the mercury-based vaccine
preservative known as thimerosal has contributed to cause
a nationwide epidemic of regressive autism and other neurological
disorders in small children. The confidential version of the study,
however, clearly demonstrated that an exposure to more than 62.5
micrograms of mercury within the first three months of life
significantly increased a child's risk of developing autism.
Specifically, the study found a 2.48 times increased risk of autism -
that is to say, children with the exposure were more than twice as
likely to develop autism as children not exposed.

We should be past the point of wasting time with claims that the amount
of mercury in shots is "miniscule."
Study Finds Excessive Mercury in Hair of Infants: 'Cause for Concern'
1: Neurotoxicology 2001 Oct;22(5):691-7
Mercury (Hg) is considered one of the world's most toxic metals. Current
thinking
suggests that exposure to mercury occurs primarily from seafood
contamination and
rare catastrophic events.
Recently, another common source of exposure has been identified.
Thimerosal
(TMS), a preservative found in many infant vaccines, contains 49.6%
ethyl mercury
(EtHg) by weight and typically contributes 25 microg of EtHg per dose of
infant
vaccine.
As part of an ongoing review, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
announced in
1999 that infants who received multiple TMS-preserved vaccines may have
been
exposed to cumulative Hg in excess of Federal safety guidelines.
According to the centers for disease control (CDC) recommended
immunization
schedule, infants may have been exposed to 12.5 microg Hg at birth, 62.5
microg
EtHg at 2 months, 50 microg EtHg at 4 months, 62.5 microg EtHg at 6
months, and
50 microg EtHg at approximately 18 months, for a total of 237.5 microg
EtHg during
the first 18 months of life, if all TMS-containing vaccines were
administered.
Neurobehavioral alterations, especially to the more susceptible fetus
and infant, are
known to occur after relatively low dose exposures to organic mercury
compounds.
In effort, to further elucidate the levels of ethyl mercury resulting
from exposure to
vaccinal TMS, we estimated hair Hg concentrations expected to result
from the
recommended CDC schedule utilizing a one compartment pharmacokinetic
model.
This model was developed to predict hair concentrations from acute
exposure to
methymercury (MeHg) in fish. Modeled hair Hg concentrations in infants
exposed to
vaccinal TMS are in excess of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
safety
guidelines of 1 ppm for up to 365 days, with several peak concentrations
within this
period.
More sensitive individuals and those with additional sources of exposure
would have
higher Hg concentrations. Given that exposure to low levels of mercury
during critical
stages of development has been associated with neurological disorders in
children,
including ADD, learning difficulties, and speech delays, the predicted
hair Hg
concentration resulting from childhood immunizations is cause for
concern.
Based on these findings, the impact which vaccinal mercury has had on
the health
of American children warrants further investigation.
