Investigators and Families of Vaccine-Injured Children to Unveil Report Detailing Clear Vaccine-Autism Link Based on Government’s Own Data
Report Demands Immediate Congressional Action

Directors of the Elizabeth Birt Center for Autism Law and Advocacy (EBCALA), parents and vaccine-injured children will hold a press conference on the steps of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (717 Madison Place, NW in Washington, DC) on Tuesday, May 10 at 12:00 PM to unveil an investigation linking vaccine injury to autism. For over 20 years, the federal government has publicly denied a vaccine-autism link, while at the same time its Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) has been awarding damages for vaccine injury to children with brain damage, seizures and autism. This investigation, based on public, verifiable government data, breaks new ground in the controversial vaccine-autism debate.



The investigation found that a substantial number of children compensated for vaccine injury also have autism. The government has asserted that it “does not track” autism among the vaccine-injured. Based on this preliminary investigation, the evidence suggests that autism is at least three times more prevalent among vaccine-injured children than among children in the general population.

The federal government has called autism a “national health emergency,” conservatively affecting 1 in 110 children and costing the country billions of dollars each year. Because almost all children in the United States are required by law to receive between 30-45 vaccines in order to attend public school, it is crucial that the VICP decide cases with justice and transparency. EBCALA and the families of the vaccine-injured call on Congress to investigate the VICP, the only forum in which parents may bring claims of vaccine injury on behalf of their children.

WHERE: United States Court of Claims 717 Madison Place, NW Washington, DC
WHEN: Tuesday, May 10 12:00 PM noon

Ms Teri,
We vaccinated our children. Let me repeat that, we vaccinated our children. Many of our children suffered incurable disease and disability from a vaccine that we strongly suspect is not as safe as the older single vaccine and definitely more dangerous than the wild disease itself. Antibiotics and better nutrition were responsible for the decline in death and disability from wild measles infection; this significant decrease in morbidity evidenced before the introduction of a vaccine. The your bmj link is industry along with public health employees working overtime to protect themselves from being held accountable for their gross irresponsibility in approving and administering a defective vaccine thus endangering children.

Since you're so concerned about children endangered from infectious disease exposure, are you up to date on the current vaccine schedule children are required to follow, including two doses of MMR?

I am compiling a list of children who were adversely affected by any vaccine. Please if you could say in about 4-6 sentences what that vaccine was how they reacted, how they are today and what city the vaccine was administered. I have a very long list from members already so if you sent it to me before I don't need it again [email protected]

Before this stops, we have to fire all of our government. They know what they are doing, and it is to destroy our coubtry so they can remove our rights, and allow the New World Order to take over, and it is slavery all over again

Ms Teri

You do know that the research linking autism with vaccines was shown to be fraudulent and that subsequent research found no link.

http://www.bmj.com/content/342/bmj.c7452.full

But your probably right: that's just the the British Medical Journal, and a few thousand other scientists going along with the American government's cover up of the damage of vaccines. Oh and the decrease in rates of death and disability from Measles is probably unconnected with MMR vaccination.

It is gross irresponsibility on your part not to have your children vaccinated, not because it's your choice as to whether or not your children die, but because you exponentially endanger the lives of other children. Grow up and let your children do the same.

Elaine Sartin

Wow.what a big surprise the government would be covering up, and misplacing data. I knew it would only be a matter of time before information would leak out that the government had information all along that would show the link between autism and vaccines. Our grand-daughter is one of the thousands of children that was doig perfectly well, she was high on all of the charts for growth and developement until the three in one shot. After the shots with in hours she shut down, no more smiles, eye contact, and for my son the saddest thing there was no more "I love you Daddy" coming from his beloved daughter. Of course everyone that has been down this path with their children know what a nightmare ensues trying to get help for their children in the way of medical, indepth therapys and mainly the financial help to pay for treatment that most insurers find loop holes to avoid paying for the much needed help. No one ever wants to step up to the plate and take responsibility for such mass mistakes least of all the government and the big drug companies. Before anyone starts defending the drug companies, I will tell you that I know there are wonderful drugs that help save lives everyday, just as there are thousands of drugs that do the reverse, but we don't always hear about the negative when there is tons of money to be made. I would be guessing that the only reason (if in-fact this information is correct) this government data maybe coming to light is because there is a mass epidemic of children with the autism spectrum. If the vaccines are not a link to autism then what? There must be a common thread that links these people together. How could a small little body endure such massive vaccinations ( some which are repeats of which there is no need). I am an old lady, but when I had vaccinations there were about eight ( give or take) and at 66 I am still here. My grand-daughter has had about 50. Vaccines are needed for certain things, but the system that is in place and crammed down every parents throat is distroying our children. While we expect our government to be looking out for us, that is the most unreasonable idea. It has been proven so many times before that there has been government cover-ups on so many issues of health, and it takes years and billions of dollars for them to deny and look the other way, and keep on denying the truth before something comes to light that the government can no longer deny. That being said peoples lives have been destroyed, what a price to pay for greed. I do hope there will finally be a major change for all of the families with children that have sutism, because the pursuit of justice can be a long and lonely road.

Whoops..i posted this on the other post with the. Ewsclip, but this seems a bit more appropriate to post in this one here..sorry if u read it twice ;p


I still think its hysterical that they are DENYING ever compensating an "Autism" case! I saw the email "statement" from david on behalf of the HRSA,on Generation Rescue's site here:
http://cl.publicaster.com/ViewInBrowser.aspx?pubids=8252%7c89%7c67691%7c77093&digest=Ouhs4G99fpquyTytUpYXzw&sysid=1

and srill cant believe they just are still obviously playing WORD GAMES with our kids health and families ability to help and provide for our injured kids!
I mean, it CLEARLY states, on the NVICP website, on page 7 of the "Autism Genral Order #1", the entire last paragraph of page 7 is about Autism cases!

"Autism cases involving Table Injuries have been compensated under the Program."
http://www.uscfc.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/autism/Autism+General+Order1.pdf

I dont care HOW they say it, or if they want to put it into any "order" to make it "look like" autism is never "caused by vaccines", when in reality they ARE! Ok, so Hanna had enceph that from the vaccines and an "underlying unknown" mito disorder (according to the courts) "caused" her Autism, rather than saying the vaccines caused her autism...same difference when it comes to the foinding rules/regulations set up for the Vaccine Program to begin with!

Its sad that any of us can take our case and match up with a correspondng compensated case, we use the "word" Autism, we fail/etc BUT those who never mention the word Autism but sumply describe all symptoms of autism instead they DO GET compenated, why? Because it certainly could then be debated in the media as "see there are not any cases compensated due to Autism" THANKS TO THOSE WHO TOOK THE TIME to do this research, cade by case, i am happy its getting out, more than it has in the past....

I just couldnt read Davids email statement on GR's site and then NOT post the info for Autism General Order #1, where its DIRECTLY stated that they HAVE/DO compensate "Autism cases involving Tabke Injuries..."

Its maddening (as u all understand) that its RIGHT THERE IN BLACK AND WHITE in SO many various cases/examples/tv interviews/studies/etc JUST HOW obvious the word games are...

Sick. I hope tomorrows news conference is out and LOUD.

I will feel so happy if the damage stops! No more lost children, no more lives destroyed and support for those who desperately need it.
I hope this is the turning point.

Kat

There was a Kit who posted on Shot of Prevention last week if you want to see what she wrote (I don't recall). You will have to do a search for her name in the 800 or so comments of the post on mothers regretting they didn't vax....

Thank you for all you do Age of Autism! I hope tomorrow is a BIG push toward the truth getting out --- for the sake of our precious babies. Will light a candle tonight for all families who have been hurt and for those who have been working so hard for justice and health.

The damage is done for my son but if can protect future generations! I am not against vaccinations but it needs to be looked at and the amount thesed children get before school is to many and 4-5 at one time is too many! Until the cause is known precautions should be taken!!

Erwin Alber

Vaccination is an organised criminal enterprise dressed up as disease prevention. The cigarette manufacturers had their day in court for misleading the public about the harm of cigarette smoking. One can only hope that the vaccine manufacturers and vaccine pushers will soon be held accountable for inflicting the vaccination fraud on the public and the harm it has caused to millions of children and their families. All these people need to be put behind bars to keep the rest of us safe.

Erik Nanstiel

I will be attending on behalf of FAIR Autism Media to tape the event. Look forward to seeing all those who attend!

Joan Campbell

Good luck folks, everybody who believes their child was vaccine damaged should try and make the effort if they can to attend.

joyous,

It took me awhile to figure it out - there are two teeny tiny little ">>" or "<<" at the end of the comments. If you click on them, it will take you to older or newer comments.

joyous

I can never see all the posts anymore... ther is no back button when I get to the bottom of the page.. any hints
It has been like this since the format went back to the original way.

This is a step in the right direction provided the intent is to actually compensate families.

Kit may or may not be what he or she claims to be--but everyone, please be aware that if you respond via email, you are giving information (email address, ip address, etc.) to a complete stranger. (No offense, Kit, if you're on the level, but we are up against Big Pharm, who has already demonstrated that not even loss of innocent lives will stop their quest for profit.)

I emailed the Kit person and have had no reply. It must be a case of trolling looking the part, but then again when they don’t reply you know it’s a bit of malicious trolling.

Good timing for this event since CBS news has just opened serious questions and concerns surrounding vaccinations. See: Explosive new meta-analysis of the vaccine-autism link by Dr. Helen Ratajczak, http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31727_162-20049118-10391695.html

Tim, you, I, and everyone else here has earned the right to be skeptical about anything connected to autism, or autism research. There are many people out there, who are most certainly not our friends, aggressively trying to curtail any efforts we might make to help our children, communicate what happened to our children with others, or even just maintain our our right to determine what medicine or vaccine is right for us or our children. You are not paranoid at all. This is the reality we all face.

At a recent event I attended, someone who obviously wanted to cause a disruption, let her cell phone ring loudly and continuously to interrupt a certain well known speaker that many of us consider to be a true hero. It was not a coincidence at all. Her intentions became rather obvious when she started laughing, and did not do anything at all to stop the noise. What a sick and twisted individual.

veritas

I feel the same as Tim. Anybody, who wants to conduct an autism study, using personal info provided by the parents of autistic children, must fully disclose his/her real identity, professional association, conflicts of interests etc. Otherwise, he/she cannot be trusted.

Maurine Meleck

I'm fastening my seatbelt, but we're corn free here so please pass the rice cakes.
Maurine

Julie Leonardo

Kit, you will need to post more information, please. We don't know who you are and what your intention is.

Mor Sagmon

The explanation to the 3 to 1 ratio we will be given is obvious: they'll say that as vaccine-injured children's immune system is vulnerable as it is, they are more susceptible to different kind of ailments, autism included.

Tim Kasemodel

kit,

Your survey sounds interesting. It looks like something that could really evolve into a great public information piece for children like mine with many co-morbid medical conditions.

Given that I am a parent advocate who has been duped by many an "honest reporter and researcher" before, I think that I and other interested parents would be much more interested in responding to your e-mail request if you were to post your whole name with your post. Although sincerity is likely your intent, leaving a pen name I can not follow up on is hard for me to to digest. I fully understand many commenters' wanting to remain anonymous. I believe this is different though - your open request without full up front disclosure of your identity unfortunately leaves me only the choice to decline your offer for now.

I hope that you can comment more on your background, and to whom you refer as "we" are. Please understand that "trust" is not given away lightly in the autism community anymore. If this is a noble effort it should not be a big deal to come forward - Hell, sounds like you want to publish anyway. Looking forward to your response so that I may help you with your survey. I am also wondering if others feel the same way as I or if I am just getting too road weary......... Am I just crazy or just being careful? Nothing is out of the question at this point in my "autism journey"!

Tim

Anne McElroy Dachel

The CDC/AAP may try to say that these children were compensated BEFORE the science was in on vaccines and autism.

That is simply NOT TRUE. Many of these cases were recent.

THE REASON THESE CHILDREN WON IN VACCINE COURT IS BECAUSE THERE WAS NO OTHER POSSIBLE REASON FOR THEIR AUTISM OTHER THAN THAT THE VACCINES DID IT!

Ooooh! Fasten your seatbelts and someone pass the popcorn!

We are looking for participants for our autism survey. If you are a parent of a child on the spectrum and would like to participate, please email [email protected] and let us know you want to be added to the list.

This is a parental survey looking at children with a diagnosis on the Autism Spectrum. All questions are optional, you may provide as much or as little information as possible. All information in this survey will be used to compile data to look at an assortment of similarities and differences of children on the spectrum. Further data may be collected from adults on the spectrum. Additional follow up questions or clarifications may be sent to your inbox, this is due to the personalization approach we are taking in conducting this survey. During and after the collection process, we will then publish the resulting numbers on as many channels as possible. None of your personal information that you provide will be made public without your permission. The data published will be strictly numbers and the accompanying category. An example would be; we surveyed 200 children on the spectrum in New York. 100 of those children are reported to experience seizures. And depending on the category it would continue to break down. You will receive personal copies beforehand of our results. Our hope is to spur further investigation in areas that we feel deeply affect a lot more kids on the spectrum than previously thought and we want to get an idea of how many kids on the spectrum suffer GI issues vs those who don’t, how many had visible regression vs showed symptoms from birth, and the list goes on. Please take part and pass on to anyone you know has a child with an ASD. It’s time we get a handle on Autism

Dad2one

Who did the research?

Angus Files

Great research .

No doubt a feeble reason will be given that us, as parents won’t have realised the causes of the 3 times higher ratio of autism amongst vaccine damaged awarded claimants .
