My son Luke was born naturally and developed completely "normal" ~ even acquiring a vocabulary of roughly 120 words or so by the age of 14 months! Pretty advanced and amazing by most standards. After receiving the DPT and MMR vaccinations at age 14 months, Luke regressed practically "overnight", losing all speech, beginning to tantrum severely, exhibiting seizure activity, etc. Eventually he was diagnosed with classical autism. Go figure?

So tell me once more, via government studies; there is no link between childhood immunizations, the ingrdeients therein, or the proximity with which these innoculations are given and autism? ~ I believe there is, especially after having spoken to literally THOUSANDS of parents of children with autism who tell me an almost IDENTICAL story of regression.

hum. . .here I am, autistic and I never got the vaccines in my youth (1950's parents objected due to religious grounds) Wonder if I am just a 'natural', eh?

I dropped him a comment - but not before noticing the usual trolls (paid by the word perhaps?).

Thank you Dr. Sears! This country needs more pediatricians like you to take the lead to improve health outcomes for American children. Good doctors are out there ~ more of them need to speak up!

Mark Blaxill and Barbara Loe Fisher described the problem well below. Pediatricians like Dr. Sears are part of the solution.

"Pediatricians. One consequence of the cost squeeze in health insurance has been that pediatricians, like most primary care physicians, have become captives of a new economic model of primary care delivery: high volume, low touch, and increasingly structured around compensation rules for specific diagnosis codes rather than time spent with children. Most pediatricians enter the field of pediatric medicine out of a desire to serve children.

Increasingly, they are becoming captives of the compensation rules regarding allowable services. One of these allowable routines is the well child visit, a repeatable and tightly defined procedure that is little more than a tollgate for vaccine administration. The economics of pediatric practice have become increasingly dependent on these tolls, and the well child toll has become a critical component of a pediatrician's annual income.

By contrast, as the front line of vaccine adverse effect reporting, pediatricians have incentives to avoid adverse event reporting. When faced with a possible vaccine adverse event, each pediatrician has discretion in associating the event with the vaccine, although the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act obligated the pediatrician simply to report the event and not make a causation determination at the provider level. Pediatricians have a personal stake in the success of the vaccine program and, more important, an emotional stake in the absence of causal relationship between vaccination and injured children. No pediatrician wants to believe that their personal interventions have caused harm to their young patients.

At the same time, the report of an adverse event takes time and effort while also causing the pediatrician to fear litigious behavior on the part of parents, even though the 1986 Vaccine Injury Act protected pediatricians from most vaccine injury lawsuits. For all these reasons, pediatricians view reporting vaccine reactions as a risk rather than a benefit. Not surprisingly, the groups that represent pediatricians seek to minimize the concerns over adverse events and preserve the confidence of parents in the childhood immunization program and its associated well child visit.

When will we get it? Vaccines purposely have chemicals that destroy and effect the DNA level. 2 of my doctors told me off the record vaccines are total garbage, 100% bad, corrupt, phony, dangerous on purpose. They said vaccines cause even more diseases than we are aware of, and they permanently cripple immunity and increase cancer risks 300%. These are suppressed Harvard studies, they also proved that autism risk is increased by 800%! Vaccines, never been proven to protect against ANYTHING, any indo saying otherwise is fairy tale big pharma propaganda. Really deceptive stuff. They want us to take this shady Swine flu jab REAL bad, gee I wonder if it's suspicious...it couldn't be any clearer they are trying to inject us with harmful stuff that is NOT for our benefit, it is for our DEMISE. Even the brain-dead, blind sheep have to connect the dots now.

It's rather obvious that they are attempting depopulation, how 99% of the sheep can't see this is disturbing and quite blind.

To those who still believe...I say, and how is that going for you?
