AUTISM EPIDEMIC IN AMERICA!

What has caused it?

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

TTV: This should be of concern to every parent and prospective parent! Much greater caution should be applied to child vaccination and vaccination generally. The recieved wisdom may not be as wise as many had thought. The full extent of the Covid disaster on all fronts is yet to be revealed. I have long taken this position in life and on my published Blog. It appears a wind of change may be blowing through the corridors of power despite a political and medical establishment back-lash.

It's a complicated subject Doug and not easy to summarise in a line or two. I have posted many articles on the subject on my Blog here over many years. I suppose you could say I am sceptical about much of Western Health policy and practice, although of course there is a lot of good about it too. We need to make sensible judgments to distinguish between them. A fundamental problem is that many health issues are driven not by need but by commercial interests and making profits particularly as it relates to the pharmaceutical industry. We are obsessed by magical cures for illness that is chemically or societally driven. The increase in the incidence of autism spectrum conditions in children over the past fifty years or so, is just one of the indicators that approaches to medicine and health need to change. Government and the health industry is in denial and it is people that pay the price - literally.

RFK Jr. and HHS: Autism possibly linked to MMR vaccine, Tylenol use during pregnancy

During a Senate hearing yesterday, Kennedy noted that a CDC study found a 260% higher rate of autism in boys who got the MMR vaccine.

(LifeSiteNews) — A Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) report commissioned by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. indicates Tylenol use during pregnancy is one factor contributing to the U.S. autism epidemic, according to media reports.

Sources close to the matter said low levels of folate as well as the use of the acetaminophen-based drug will be named in the forthcoming HHS autism report as among potential causal factors behind autism.

Kennedy, secretary of the HHS, told Fox and Friends last week that his agency was about to reveal causes of autism and make government regulation recommendations accordingly. His remarks suggest that mothers’ Tylenol use and folate deficiency will be among a multitude of factors cited in the HHS report.

“There is not a single cause, there are many, many — there’s an aggregation of causes,” said Kennedy. “We are now developing sufficient evidence to ask for regulatory action on some of those, or recommendations.”

He noted the documented explosion in autism rates, which have gone from less than one in 10,000 in 1970 to one case for every 31 Americans, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Even if autism is over-diagnosed, a significant portion of these children are severely impaired, indicating a real, notable increase in the disorder. 

“Most cases now are severe,” Kennedy said in April while discussing the results of a CDC autism survey. He explained that “25% of the kids who are diagnosed with autism are non-verbal, non-toilet trained,” and have other dysfunctional behaviors typical of severe autism like hand-banging.

During a Senate hearing on Thursday, Kennedy also pointed to a link between the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine and autism.

“In 2002, CDC did an internal study of Fulton County, Georgia, children, and looked at children who got the MMR vaccine on time and compared those to kids who got them later. The data from that study showed that black boys who got the vaccine on time had a 260% greater chance of getting an autism diagnosis than children who waited,” Kennedy explained.

“The chief scientist on that, Dr. William Thompson, the senior vaccine safety scientist at CDC, was ordered to come into a room with four other co-authors by his boss, Frank DeStefano, who’s the head of the Immunization Safety Branch, in order to destroy that data,” said Kennedy.

This story was divulged by CDC whistleblower Dr. William Thompson, one of the co-authors who intentionally omitted the 2004 study data showing the MMR vaccine-autism connection in black children.

While an evolving, broadening definition of autism may contribute to increased diagnoses, Kennedy believes “environmental toxins” have contributed to a full-blown epidemic of autism.

“We’re going to look at vaccines, but we’re going to look at everything. Everything is on the table, our food system, our water, our air, different ways of parenting, all the kind of changes that may have triggered this epidemic,” the HHS head previously told Fox News.

“It is an epidemic,” Kennedy insisted. “Epidemics are not caused by genes. Genes can provide a vulnerability, but you need an environmental toxin.”

“We know that it is an environmental toxin that is causing this cataclysm,” said Kennedy, “and we are going to identify it.” END
