"I understand we're also desperate for a smoking guy, so I don't blame Hooker & Wakefield, either."

I'm not desperate at all, just realistic. Seems to me that so many ARE desperate for a hero, or for someone to save them from all of this, that they'll hail the next guy that comes around as some sort of hero...when they're not.

NO ONE is infallible; we all have our weak spots. I have made repeated comments, though, warning that Thompson was no whistle-blower, but I don't think my comments were understood.

Now we have new information about Thompson being handled. If true, this sadly proves my point.

All I was trying to say with those repeated comments about Thompson was WAIT, let all the facts play themselves out in the public realm before you start assigning a hero hat to someone else.

Do I feel for Thompson? Sure! To a certain extent. But just perhaps - PERHAPS - if Thompson had spoken out some 10 years ago re what he knew was going on, this entire situation with Thompson/CDC may have gone a different route.

None of us, with the exception of Drs. Hooker and Wakefield, may know the real history behind Thompson's role with all of this. But from my standpoint as a MOM, if I had a child with autism and that child was vaccinated with the MMR during the very time Thompson knew the information he's now provided to Posey and others, I would be devastated.

Forgiveness comes with time, but there is also a time for righteous anger.

I honestly, at this point in time, don't know how Thompson sleeps at night. Or perhaps he IS having a hard time sleeping at night, and more.

Also, I don't believe for one moment that Thompson isn't the only one being HANDLED at the CDC. Surely others working at the CDC know of the level of corruption Thompson is aware of, but what are others there aware of?

What Thompson knows is just the tip of the iceberg...

@Linda1,

I understand PERFECTLY well what handled means, believe me. I've witnessed this type thing in my own family.

There is always FREE WILL, whether you are 'handled' or not. The choices you make, are always YOUR OWN.

‘‘In a statement released in August 2014, Dr. Thompson stated: 'I regret that my coauthors and I omitted statistically significant information in our 2004 article published in the Journal of Pediatrics...All the authors and I met and decided sometime between August and September 2002 not to report any race effects for the paper. Sometime soon after the meeting, where we decided to exclude reporting any race effects, the coauthors scheduled a meeting to destroy documents related to the study. The remaining four coauthors all met and brought a big garbage can into the meeting room and reviewed and went through all the hard copy documents that we had thought we should discard and put them in a huge garbage can. However, because I assumed it was illegal and would violate both FOIA and DOJ requests, I kept hard copies of all documents in my office, and I retained all associated computer files. I believe we intentionally withheld controversial findings from the final draft of the Pediatrics paper.'”

VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM

So let me get this straight now.

Donald Sterling was illegally taped in his own home by his mistress and he really said nothing but that he did not want his 25 year old mistress hanging around a bunch of horny young men at his basketball team- which is not all that unreasonable from the view point of a 70 something male- and as a result he lost his 2 billion dollar basketball team.

Dr. Thompson is legally recorded in a state that allows such conduct and he admits to conspiring with others to publish false data and to mislead the public at large.

He admits to knowingly publishing this false data and he admits that the real data shows that 1 group of children black children have a large incidence of autism with the MMR vaccine.

Now this same conspirator wants to retract his statement and rework the data ? There are no consequences for his behavior? none?

Hmmm superficially this sounds like someone just got paid off or threatened.

However this may be a false flag being presented so that the CDC and FDA can announce that they dealt with this and now this is old news. Kind of reminds me when the Dems tried to admit on the sly through Lois Lerner that they were targeting conservative groups by disclosing it at a meeting so they could later say that they admitted to it and nobody said anything.

This kind of reminds me of that - Just to good to be true. "Yeah lets admit that we knew we were slaughtering young black children in a whistleblower scam to see how much black people can still read and to test how much resistance and push back we get"

NO THIS STINKS AND SO DOES THOMPSON- THIS ALL STINKS

John Martin,

Why do we need to look at stealth viruses when we have not been told the truth about the paramyxovirus that completely destroys the immune system. Why would anyone trust such information when they have not been told one iota of truth concerning the MMR.

Why? Why would we not believe that this is just another made up fairy tale to make us look everywhere instead of what is right in front of us.

No the Measles virus in an 18 month old child is pure madness, pure madness unless it is the intent of the doctor to destroy the immune system in an immunocompromised human.

VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM

Dr. Martin,
Since you are here. Do think RNase L has anything to do with the lower cancer rates found in Autism as a group? Did you conclude it is a factor in chronic fatigue?

When and where will VAXXED play in Austin? Does anyone know? Shawn?...

So what do we call Dr Thompson now... the whistle sucker???

One of the best quotes I have ever read:

"It requires a certain modicum of emotional and spiritual maturity and integrity to confront your own limitations of knowledge and understanding, face truths as they arise, and expand AS they arise, and expand one's consciousness."

- Dr. Mitchell Fleisher
Nellysford, Virginia

For me, I have seen very few individuals exhibit the above, but one of those individuals of whom I truly believe HAS...

...is Dr. Andrew Wakefield.

Not only should state legislatures immediately repeal all vaccine mandates nationwide, but vaccination must be made illegal. Just as it would not be considered anyone's inalienable right to inject their child with disease, or mercury, or aluminum, or formaldehyde, it's no one's inalienable right to inject children with vaccines, which contain all of them.

The Vaccine Myth: An Issue of Trust

It's fabulous to read a comment by Dr. John Martin. In the mid-nineties when I first discovered that my daughter's chronic illness and learning disabilities could be related to an underlying biomedical problem, not just to me as a neurotic mom or to fate, I read articles by John Martin on stealth viruses. I printed them out and saved them in files. As it turned out when my daughter got a viral titer she did have a stealth virus ( her titers were super high with the regular viruses from childhood but several were considered unusual viruses...more or less NEW viruses). Dr. John Martin was one of the early casualties of this war against doctors with integrity. Reading him again just made my day!

Autistic children and their parents are entitled to meaningful information concerning the cause of autism. The CDC epidemiological study did not support an association of the MMR vaccine with autism in white male and female infants or in African American female infants. Yet many within these groups are being led to believe that the MMR vaccine was solely responsible for the illness within their family.

In reality, epidemiological studies are unsuitable for identifying factors affecting small subgroups within larger populations. Epidemiological studies can also reveal misleading associations, which are non-causal.

I would like to encourage readers to become more familiar with the concept of stealth adapted viruses and to better understand that these viruses are transmissible during pregnancy. Illnesses caused by these viruses can potentially be provoked (exacerbated) by vaccines.

References to stealth adapted viruses and to a non-immunological defense mechanism involving an alternative cellular energy (ACE) pathway can be found on the Internet. I hope the information will help generate a sense of optimism within the autism community. It should also facilitate constructive dialogue with Public Health officials.

Whatever, but I don't have too much difficulty imagining how someone can vacillate over a period of many years.

@John Stone:

"I gather the law as it stands protecting whistleblowers is one that protects them from reprisal in their employment. When Thompson appointed a lawyer it was presumably to make sure the laws were obeyed. We know Thompson gave the documents to Posey with a view to giving testimony before Congress - he wanted to be subpoenaed - and the attorney, at least originally, was prepared to act pro bono. Then, obviously, with Brian and Andy he lost the initiative. Moreover, it turned out after many months that Congress could not care less. And, of course, he was still surrounded by all his old colleagues..."

I may sound like a hard-a@@ on this one, but I truly believe, if Thompson's heart had been in the right place in the very beginning, that no. 1, he would not have gone for approximately 10 years hanging on to this information, and two, he could have perhaps, in seeing that any sort of Congressional hearing was not going to take place with any of this...he could have chosen conversely to go completely public, with cameras in place, and given an official statement.

Right or wrong, that's just how I feel. MANY children's lives have been utterly destroyed because, in part, of this man's (and admittedly others') refusal to step up, grow a pair, and come out with the TRUTH.

...absolutely makes my blood boil. Other whistleblowers have gone to far more reaches in the banks of hell in order to spill the truth to their public.

Thompson simply falls short in my eyes.

Bayareamom,

At some point, I believe that Thompson must have realized that Hooker was recording him.

In the statement where Brian Hooker indicated that Thompson may have been "handled" by the CDC, he stated,

"I spoke to Dr Thompson over a period of 10 months approximately from Nov 2013 until Sept 2014. When he found out that I had actually recorded him, and I went from my home state of California, where it's illegal to do what I did, and drove up to Oregon which is about 2.5 hours away, he laughed gregoriously, he thought that was the funniest thing in the world."

Hooker admitted that Thompson found out that he was being recorded. Why would Thompson find it hilarious that Hooker would drive 2.5 hours to another state in order to legally record him to be hilarious?

Thompson's original statement released by his lawyer:

http://morganverkamp.com/statement-of-william-w-thompson-ph-d-regarding-the-2004-article-examining-the-possibility-of-a-relationship-between-mmr-vaccine-and-autism/

I was not, however, aware that he was recording any of our conversations, nor was I given any choice regarding whether my name would be made public or my voice would be put on the Internet.

Hooker and Thompson's testimonies don't seem to add up. I would believe Hooker's statement more than Thompson's because I believe that Thompson has a lot more to lose and hide than Hooker.

I think he'll have to incorporate some new data. How otherwise can it be explained that the "five of [them] working behind closed doors for five years" overlooked whatever it is that's going to be plonked down now?

(I can see there would be a strong incentive to remove the underlying actus reus.)

About Thompson. If my memory of the transcripts is correct he had already made over the data to Posey before the first conversation, and engaged with a specialist whistleblower lawyer by the second.

The idiot. The best way to protect his LIFE and his ability to make money would have been to come forward publicly and tell all. Become the HERO rather than the villain and that would have thrust him into the public eye which may have spared him from a government orchestrated ending that so many rogue scientists have suffered. He also could have made plenty of money writing and speaking about fraud and corruption in our government. If he believes himself to be safe because he "Played ball" he is being naive. He could still come out.

It's NOT TOO LATE, BILL! If you don't there will be a special place in hell for you because of all the children you continue to injure.

"According to multiple reliable sources, CDC whistleblower Dr. William Thompson, a senior scientist at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), will soon publish a reworking of data from a controversial study first published in 2004"

Having Dr. Thompson .. the original CDC whistleblower .. "publish a reworking of data" .. from a "study" that he .. HIMSELF .. voluntarily alleged had been deliberately manipulated to avoid evidence of a significantly higher risk to children receiving the MMR prior to 36 months of age .. would be no different than expecting O.J. Simpson to "rework the overwhelming DNA evidence" that identified him as the murderer of his victims.

Indeed, as for the person who would benefit the most from "reworking the data" to serve his own vested interest .. that would be Dr. Thompson .. not O.J.
