**Sheri B** - Vaccines w/o mercury (was RE: Age of Autism: Doctors for Mercury (Dan Olmsted))

[Guest guest]

I have been re-reading Alan Philips' excellent booklet " Dispelling

Vaccination Myths " (http://www.whale.to/v/phillips.html) and he has done

something similar:

" Recent studies in the U.S. and England suggest that vaccines cause

autism.(56,57,58),, Mercury poisoning and autism have nearly identical

symptoms,(59) and a single day's vaccination regimen may inject 41 times the

level of mercury known to cause harm.(60) California's autism rate has

mushroomed 1000% over the past 20 years, with dramatic increases following

the introduction of the MMR vaccine in the early 1980's. England had

dramatic autism increases beginning in the 1990's, following the

introduction of the MMR vaccine there. Some infants receive 100 times the

EPA's maximum allowable amount of mercury through vaccines. In January,

2000, the Journal of Adverse Drug Reactions reported that the MMR vaccine

was not adequately tested and should not have been licensed. Further

reinforcing the suspected vaccine-autism connection is the fact that many

physicians using a systematic mercury-detoxification regimen with autistic

patients have seen dramatic improvements in the health and behavior of their

patients.(61) Today, one out of every 150 children are affected by autism,

according to the National Vaccine Information Center. In the early 1940's,

prior to the introduction of most vaccines in current use, it was considered

a rare condition that few doctors would ever encounter in their practice. "

He makes constant reference to autism and MMR in the same paragraph, but

there is no mercury in the MMR.... It sort of dents the credibility of the

entire publication, doesn't it?

Love, light and peace,
