To better illustrate the point: seatbelts can kill you. They can lacerate your spleen when you get in a wreck. Why on earth would you recommend people wear them? Not to mention children! Why are you putting your children at risk for a lacerated spleen??? Answer me that and you've got your answer for why vaccination would still make sense even if vaccs did cause autism.

Several fairly large studies have found no link between vaccination and autism. It is still, possible that there IS a link that the studies didn't pick up, but it would likely be a very weak link. Even if vaccines DID "cause" autism it would still make sense to vaccinate your children. A one in a million chance of autism would be an acceptable risk for averting a 1 in ten thousand risk of death from say meningitis. Even if it did cause autism you would be wrong to withhold vaccination.

You say that the FDA "has not proven consistently that there is proof that autism is caused by genetics". This comment of yours, emily, shows that there are some gaps in your understanding of the FDA's role. The FDA is a regulatory agency for drugs and food. The FDA is not a research body that would try to address the genetics of autism.

There is ample evidence to prove that materials mercury and thermisol are toxic to the human body. And you fail to mention that there is no consistent and conclusive evidence that autism is caused by genetics, either.

And you believe that those who agree with what is being said in this video have not done their research or witnessed their own child suffer a regression that happened after getting vaccinations? jagoex, if you wish to have a mature discussion about this important issue, it is important to come into with an open mind and ear to those who have done their own equal amount of research into this matter and have remained subjective to both sides.

There are numerous other materials and metals used in vaccines (for example mercury is still being used in certain vaccines) that can cause autism or autism-like behaviour symptoms. And its ironic that the FDA has not proven consistently that there is proof that autism is caused by genetics.

Its interesting that you fail to note that there is no proven link between genetics and autism, either. And there is mounting evidence supporting the theory of vaccine-injury induced autism.

Exactly. This Dr is wrong. Studies have already proven that there is no link between autism and vaccination.

you don't need toxicology, you need epidemiology for this. An epidemiologist might note, for example, that even though thimerosal was removed from the entire infant vaccine series, and from many of the toddler shots-- autism rates went up, not down. If you think that thimerosal is causing some autism why did the autism rates go up when thimerosal exposure went down from the 80's to now?????????????

those who still believe that big pharma

Responding to amiriliano concerning the profit of vaccines? You may not be making large profits on vaccines, but you hold to your side of ignoring the toxicology on Thimerosal because it directly threatens your job. The litigation and criminal prosecution that could result from agreeing with the toxicological science and continuing to administer Thimerosal would bankrupt you and most likely put you in prison. The reality is you are most likely some hired Internet surfer, paid to write.

Educated comments? Yes, Medical School education. The problem is the Medical Dr.'s can't seem to agree with the PhD's in biochemistry and toxicology. When one forgets about medical bias and digs into the true hard science of toxicology on Thimerosal, it is neurotoxic, hematoxic, hepatoxic and renaltoxic. It effects many different organs, tissue and glandular systems including enzymatic systems. It directly diables CD4 and CD8 white blood cell immunity. And we are injecting this directly... Wow.

I find it disturbing that educated comments are being down-voted because they disagree with the content of this video. So much for a mature discussion on the matter.

Better yet where is your data coming from Eli Lilly, Merck, GlaxoSmithKline? Who paid him the government that mandated vaccines after lobbiest bribe congress, shall we get R.J. Reynolds to test tobacco safety oh yes they found out it was safe? So Ethyl mercury is used as a preservitive because it doesn't kill bactieria? What studies do you have where the effects of Ethyl mercury have been tested directly. So its better than methyl mercury and that proves what? Your logic is astounding.

I imagine it would take a great deal of courage and integrity for a paediatrician to admit they may have unwittingly harmed thousands of children with routine vaccinations. Many are so desperate to believe vaccinations are safe because acknowledging otherwise has considerable personal moral and ethical implications.

I shouldn't even answer this level of reply, but just to calirify, pediatricians, in general, do not make big profits from vaccines. In my practice it is a very small portion of compensation. In fact, according to our estimates, since we started with global vaccination for flu, the number of visits during winter for flu has greatly fallen. So it seems right now to be a money LOSER. Compensation for vaccines is very low...get your facts straight before you go accusing!

Look, you are a little piss ant of a peditrian who is trying to discredit these physicians so that you can benefit financially from your practice to keep injecting children with unsafe vaccines. You, like 80% of Drs, probably don't report adverse reactions. FCOL our babies DON'T need an HepB at 1 day of birth. They are NOT having sex and NOT doing drugs. You are just part of the greed in this world asshole!

At least this doctor admits that it is potentially a mercury from vaccine casing autism.

Autism is caused by the Mercury in vaccines, period, end of sentence, END of debate.

What kind of a bio-chemist is he?? Apparently he missed the physiology class where they explain that anything you digest ends up eventually in the blood. To boot, as per University of Rochester study this year: "mercury levels in infants' blood after vaccination with thimerosal-containing vaccines are 10 times lower -- and go away 10 times faster -- than if they'd received the same amount of methyl mercury". Ethyl mercury is not METHYL mercury as in fish. Who gave this guy his degree??

So right off the bat this guy is lying: the 'regressive' form of autism is NOT increasing. Where does he get his data from? Frombone and his team CLEARLY showed in 2001 that the rate of regressive autism has remained equal throughout the years (since the 70's)

The person who's video this is ("octomedia"), is the only one with the ability to do that.

The last few comments we had for each other...where did they go? Oh well, that's a bit suspicious. Did not know a person could erase whatever they wanted to. How do you do that?

I know these folks are very nice in their suits and they have a demeanor that says: I am on your side. Well, unfortunately, despite their polished appearance they are disseminating lies and misinformation. Of choose, you are free to trust whoever you choose. Take a look at my videos, they are not aggressive in any way. Take care -A

OK, first of all, I am sorry about your grandson. Second, I'm really a nice guy..really..PLease go to my channel and see some of the comments peopel have posted. I have been accused of"poisoning children" and of lying about being a pediatrician and of working for the pharma industry. So forgive me if I'm a bit defensive. Anyway, I am NOT made of stone at all and am very concerned about children's health.
