Re: MMR KIDS - LIVING SCIENTIFIC PROOF MMR CAUSES AUTISM

I agree totally with Clifford Miller's response. Many of the children
with autism have measles in the gut and/or elevated measles antibody
titers in the blood. Recently, in the Journal of American Physicians and
Surgeons, there was an article about measles virus detected in the spinal
fluid of children with autism. (1)

There has never been any independent, long-term safety studies done
on any of the vaccines. When a person is prescribed a prescription
medicine they are asked if they have any allergies but yet when a baby is
vaccinated, allergies are not considered. The baby is vaccinated without
considering allergies. The question is why? When it comes to vaccines, one
size fits all.

On a personal note, our son was born normal and regressed into autism
after the MMR vaccine. We have video tapes of Eric besides medical
information concerning his elevated measles antibody titers, T-cell
abnormalities, colitis and testing positive for myelin basic protein
antibodies.

Eric is 19 years old, 6'2" tall and 200 pounds. In the last two years
he has aggressions where he bites, head-butts, kicks, scratches and pulls
hair of family members and others. He has seven different medications
including adivan and haldol and presently has tremors and drools. He is
being rehabilitated in a hospital out-of-state for his aggressions and
will be released to an out-of-state residential school. The school will
cost $160,000.00 a month.

Eric will never be a productive member of society because the medical
establishment doesn't recognize there is a problem with vaccines like the
MMR vaccine. Therefore, no research will turn up treatment modalities that
could help Eric get better. So Eric and thousands like him will not
experience the potential that we were all afforded by being healthy
individuals. The autism epidemic will continue and that will be the
tragedy we will all have to face. God have mercy on us all.
