Mercury in vaccines

Another nation is made out to be utterly depraved and fiendish, while one's own nation stands for everything that is good and noble. Every action of the enemy is judged by one standard - every action of oneself by another. Even good deeds by the enemy are considered a sign of particular devilishness, meant to deceive us and the world, while our bad deeds are necessary and justified by our noble goals, which they serve.: Eric Fromm

Lisa found government documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) which highlighted that government agencies like the FDA and CDC (Centers for Disease Control) have purposely and consciously concealed solid evidence of a link between mercury in vaccines and the rise in autism.

Once again the issue of the mind came into Lisa’s awareness.

The mercury-based preservative in the vaccines thimerosal appeared to be responsible for a large increase in autism and a host of other neurological disorders among children. Lisa found earlier studies indicated a link between thimerosal and speech delays, attention-deficit disorder, hyperactivity and autism and this had first become known in 1991

Lisa then saw how the government has proved to be far more skilled at handling the possible damage of a wide leaking of the dangers of mercury and vaccines than for telling the truth and protecting its electorate. The pharmaceutical industry began to slowly and silently remove thimerosal preservatives from children’s vaccines but flu shots and tetanus shots among others still contain the mercury.

And the best solution law makers came up with was to stop any legal action against drug companies. Those children already injured by the drugs lost all chances for damages.

Until 1943, autism was unknown when it was identified and diagnosed in children born in the months following when thimerosal was first added to baby vaccines in 1931. The preservative contains ethyl mercury, a potent neurotoxin.

It is the cumulative affect of heavy metals such as mercury that is the silent killer and humans are exposed to a greater cumulative  mercury than ever before, from work places and pollution, contaminated fish and dental fillings, and the suggestion is that thimerosal in vaccines may be only part of a much larger problem.. Studies have shown that mercury tends to accumulate in the brains of primates (and other animals and marine life) after they are injected with vaccines and that the undeveloped brains of babies are particularly susceptible.

In most countries before 1990, young children received only three vaccinations -- for polio, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis and measles-mumps-rubella. A decade later children were receiving a total of 22 immunizations by the time they reached first grade. As the number of vaccines increased, the rate of autism among children exploded. During the 1990s, 40 million children were injected with thimerosal-based vaccines, receiving unprecedented levels of mercury during a period critical for brain development

But by that time, the damage was done. Infants who received all their vaccines, plus boosters, by the age of 6 months were being injected with levels of ethyl mercury 187 times greater than the EPA's limit for daily exposure to methyl mercury, a related neurotoxin.

Chelation therapy has helped autistic children recover from the poisoning. Chelation has been used for decades to detoxify people contaminated in industrial accidents, but no studies have proved whether it is an effective treatment for autism. But worried and frustrated parents began the therapy regardless of so-called expert advice.

In addition to the mercury, some studies have linked autism to a larger, more serious problem. It may be possible the true culprit is the MMR vaccine which can cause brain, gut and immune system damage.

In the last 15 years there has been a tenfold increase in autism and related forms of brain damage and this roughly coincides with the introduction of MMR vaccines as well as an increase of immune disorders such as diabetes and inflammatory bowel diseases among children.
