Why Don’t the Amish Have Autistic Children?

Autism is a difficult disorder to miss, as it is characterized by noticeably abnormal or impaired development in social interaction and communication and a markedly restricted array of activities and interests. And while scientific consensus claims autism has been around for millennia at generally the same prevalence, that prevalence is now considered to be one in every 166 children born in the United States.

Therefore, with this devastating statistic in mind, one reporter set out to analyze the autism rates among Amish communities. Why? Because perhaps searching for autistic Amish children would reveal clues to the cause of autism … and it did.

The Clues Come Together

Since they have been cut off for hundreds of years from American culture and scientific progress, the Amish may have had less exposure to some new factor triggering autism in the rest of population. The likely culprit: vaccines.

Traveling to the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country in search of autistic Amish children, the reporter, based on national statistics, should have found as many as 200 children with autism in the community — instead, he found only three, the oldest age 9 or 10:

  • The first autistic Amish child was a girl who had been brought over from China, adopted by one family only to be given up after becoming overwhelmed by her autism, and then re-adopted by an Amish Mennonite family. (China, India and Indonesia are among countries moving fast to mass-vaccination programs.)
  • The second autistic Amish child definitely had received a vaccination and developed autism shortly thereafter.
  • The reporter was unable to determine the vaccination status of the third child.

Dangerous Effects of Thimerosal

In some vaccines, they use a mercury-based preservative called thimerosal that keeps multiple-dose vials from becoming contaminated by repeated needle sticks. After health officials became concerned about the amount of mercury infants and children were receiving through thimerosal-tainted vaccines, the toxin was phased out of U.S. vaccines starting in 1999.

However, due to mislabelling and other problems, its presence is still being felt, and more and more children are suffering because of it.

Does anyone out there really need more evidence than this?

Admittedly, this was not a placebo-controlled scientific trial but an evidence-based fact analysis that, in my mind, provides an irrefutable link to a lifestyle and, most likely, mercury-containing vaccine connection to autism.

Folks, you don’t have to be a medical doctor, hold advanced epidemiology degrees or teach molecular genetics to figure this one out. You don’t even need a degree in rocket science. How much more obvious could it be?

The link between autism and vaccines is certainly not a new idea. In fact, suggestions of this link have been in the national news for at least six years now. Just last year a study, that reviewed data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Vaccine Data Link, concluded that children who receive thimerosal-containing vaccinations are 27 times more likely to develop autism than children who do not.

That’s a 2,700 percent increase. The numbers just don’t lie.

Considering how important this issue is for nearly everyone you know, it might be a good one to forward to your friends and relatives. You can easily do this by using the E-mail to a friend button in the upper right hand section of this page, just under the search box. You can make a larger impact if you write them a personal message in the e-mail as to why they should seriously consider the advice — and why they may want to subscribe to the newsletter.

This most recent investigation simply provides the proverbial icing on the cake. There aren’t too many other places, if any, in America where you can find large groups of children who haven’t been vaccinated.

The reporter found three children with autism. One child was adopted and previously vaccinated, another was one of the few Amish children who were vaccinated, and the third had an unclear vaccine history. That leaves, at most, potentially one child out of an expected 200 (from national statistics) with autism. The odds of this being mere coincidence are slim to none.

At Least Change the Rules Concerning the Hepatitis B Vaccine

Because of their religious beliefs, the Amish community chooses not to give their children any vaccines. Understandably, many of you may not choose such a radical approach. However, if you were to focus on just one vaccine, I would encourage you to look at the issues surrounding the hepatitis B vaccine.

The multi-dose version of this vaccine, which is typically administered to newborns before they leave the hospital, still contains thimerosal. This is reprehensible, irresponsible negligence of the highest magnitude. The immature central nervous systems of these helpless newborns are particularly susceptible to toxic insults, and thimerosal, the mercury-containing preservative used in these vaccines, is one of the worst.

It would be much easier to understand if the hepatitis B vaccine had some value, but most natural health experts who study this are convinced that this is nearly always an absolutely unnecessary vaccine.

There are only about 5,000 people a year who develop the most serious consequence of hepatitis B infection, liver cancer. That means we are immunizing tens of millions of infants and causing brain injury that has caused an epidemic of autism to protect liver cancer in 5,000 adults. And, many of these adults have serious social problems like IV drug abuse, alcoholism and poor nutrition that seriously increases their risk for this disease.



Mason’s Alert: Autism’s Version of Amber Alert

Action is presently being taken in the US to attempt to have a new designation put in place on an alert system.

 

Unlike an Amber alert which is used in kidnapping cases where it is believed that the child is in imminent danger, Mason’s Alert is aimed at having public looking for a child who has wandered away.

 

The issue with autistics wandering away is extreme. The reason is that 92% of autism cases are believed to be prone to wandering and the major issue being that Autistics generally do not feel the same dangers that normal children would feel.

 

In our case, our child has wandered in the past, our child unlocked the door and walked out in bare feet playing a handheld video game. He wandered down a gravel driveway, across a street down three blocks to a major street and was picked up by a passer-by wandering down the yellow line. The passer-by called the police just as my wife was calling the police and we picked him up a few minutes later. However at 6 years old non verbal and without fear we spent a frantic 15 minutes searching the house and neighbourhood before calling the police and yes we were freaking. But we got lucky. In many cases these children are not always so lucky. Many autistics are attracted to water and most show very little fear. A large number of autistic children have been pulled from neighbouring lakes and swimming pools and in some cases police were slow to respond because the child had wandered and was considered likely to return on their own. With autistics this is never a guarantee and not a chance we can take.

 

Canada also needs to look into a Mason’s alert system that would quickly and instantly broadcast details of a wandering autistic child. We need to protect them because so often many of them cannot protect themselves.

 

I am going to place a link here to Mason’s Alert but please follow this link with caution what you will see there will break your heart as it is not filled with feel good stories but a list of those who have wandered away with drastic consequences. You will quickly understand why a system like this is needed for those who do not fall under the Amber Alert program criteria

Vaccines and Autism: How to Cover Yourself

What you see here may surprise you. The links are there and some medical people in high places can see it.

 

Now under no circumstances do I suggest that the standard regime vaccines should not be given to your child.

 

Our youngest has not had hers yet but we fully intend on her getting her full regime of standard vaccinations.

 

However here is the key issue. This time when our daughter is vaccinated we will be taking a fully intensive video registry of her behaviours over a month or two period before, during and a month or two after the vaccinations.

 

While I am not absolutely positive that our daughter will develop autism I am also not going to take the chance. I am going to document her history and behaviours and if there is an issue that develops we are going to have the video record.

 

Also as point of fact to back away from having it buried in the 18th month debate we will be going later then that for the MMR vaccine to eliminate possible time confusions.

 

I do believe that Vaccines do trigger autism. Whether the underlying issue is a mitochondrial issue or is something else entirely there is a definitive trigger. While we need to find the underlying issue we also need to find the trigger and until we do it is my personal recommendation that every parent who can do a seriously intensive video record of your child’s behaviour up to during and after vaccination because if we are going to get the message out there we must do it through solid documented proof.

 

This is the first step to document and prove that the timeline does parallel the vaccination schedule.

 

Part two will be getting Government to actually fund proper testing to find the real trigger and the real cause regardless of the pharmaceutical lobby’s self centered profit driven interest in keeping this information buried in the darkest recesses of the most hidden place they can find.

Gary McKinnon: Travesty of Justice in the Making

 

There is a story barely reported of a UK man (Gary McKinnon) who is being charged in the US with computer crimes due to hacking into the NASA and DOD computer systems.

 

Gary McKinnon is a 39 yr. old man with Asperger’s  who is facing 60 years in jail because he wanted to know for sure if the US had found aliens and were hiding the fact. While it is interesting that he does not deny having found anything of the sort, this would actually come as no surprise to the large portion of the population anyway.

 

What seems to be at issue is that Mr. McKinnon got in and out of the computers pretty much at will and searched through large volumes of “restricted material” including looking for answers to questions surrounding the 9-11 attacks and the fact that he is quite forthright in his statements that it appears that the US had fully functioning anti-gravity devices (something that would negate oil as a major energy source).

 

Now in almost all past hack attacks at the pentagon, NASA and DOD, the perpetrators were almost always offered a major computer contract and all concepts that there may have been any breaches in security were buried. Now this leads to a few questions. Did Mr. McKinnon get into details and areas that previous hackers were not able to reach? Is his age and ASD affecting the Government’s urge to overkill the issue rather then hire him? Is the fact that Mr. McKinnon believes that some of these details belong in the public domain a major factor in attempting to bury his findings?

 

ASD or in this case the branch of ASD that includes Asperger’s includes aspects that makes even charging him with these crimes rather ludicrous let alone the fact that they are attempting to attach as much as 60 yrs. or the remainder of his natural life in prison.

 

Now lets look at this from a realistic standpoint they are looking at putting an autistic person in prison for the rest of his natural life for HACKING this is so stupid as to be laughable, except this is the same country that less then a year ago executed an autistic person so we already know that they have no understanding of autism and care only for making themselves look good at the expense of anyone who is different.

 

While I have had high hopes for Obama, I am rather quickly losing any hope that he is anything other then just as far an extreme right winger as any Republican to hold office. This case could and should have been terminated by his office soon after he was elected.

 

I would call specifically on Obama and Cameron to terminate this assault on the Autism Spectrum and if they refuse i Call on Prime Minister Harper to offer Mr. McKinnon political asylum and on Mr. Ban Ki Moon to suggest sanctions against these two countries for the atrocity they are attempting to perpetuate.
