Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 While I'm thankful for any research that might lead to improvements for those with autism, am I the only one who's sick of more studies telling us our kids have brain inflammation?

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 i thought it was interesting because they're saying autistic children's brains contain abnormal levels of cytokines. then the following article from immunology today says that vaccinations " deprive the immune system of the information input upon which it is dependent. This fails to maintain the correct cytokine balance and fine-tune T-cell regulation. " infection and vaccination affect the immune systen in profound ways, but these effects are not the same because, as hilary butler said, " These are injected into new-born babies, through a needle, by-passing all normal search and destroy, or Th1, portals of entry. They have the potential to skew the immune system to an abnormal Th2 system. They do not in any way, shape or form resemble an inhaled or swallowed bacteria or virus which may provoke signs of a specific disease, because they are changed, attenuated, and presented as multi-antigens " so even if you take the mercury out, the vaccinations are still affecting cytokine balance in those who are susceptible. >The committee was unable to address the concern of some that repeated exposure of a susceptible or fragile child to multiple vaccines over the developmental period may also produce atypical or nonspecific immune or nervous system injury that could lead to severe disability or death (Fisher, 2001b). Such adverse health outcomes may not be " classical " diseases but variants of diseases. Variants would not necessarily be picked up in epidemiological or clinical investigations that use strict diagnostic criteria. There are no epidemiological studies that address this, either in terms of exposure or outcome. That is, there is no study that compares an unvaccinated control group with children exposed to the complete immunization schedule, nor are there any studies that looked at health outcomes other than those classically defined, such as infections, allergy, or diabetes. Thus the committee recognizes with some discomfort that this report addresses only part of the overall set of concerns of some who are most wary about the safety of childhood vaccines.< http://fermat.nap.edu/books/0309083281/html/36.html > > While I'm thankful for any research that might lead to improvements > for those with autism, am I the only one who's sick of more studies > telling us our kids have brain inflammation?

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 It's all part of the same auto-immunity mix. That's why the vaxed kids exhibit autism, ADD, asthma, allergies, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis at record levels, in the millions. It is a societal crisis on so many levels.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 someone asked about cytokines Here is some info on Wikipedia (not a fan of wikipedia but this is OK) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokines and here http://arthritis.about.com/od/inflammation/f/cytokines.htm http://www.microvet.arizona.edu/courses/MIC419/Tutorials/cytokines.html http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/05/090505174547.htm A cytokine storm A cytokine storm occurs when the body's immune system over-reacts to an intruder, such as a virus, by producing high levels of cytokines, which are signaling chemicals that help mobilize immune cells capable of removing infectious agents from the body. When too many cytokines are produced, they can stimulate an inflammatory response in which the accumulation of immune cells and fluid at the site of infection may prevent affected tissues and organs such as the lungs from functioning properly and may even cause death. I would suggest that vaccines cause cytokine storms and inflammation and on and on I'll see if I can find more in relation to vaccines Sheri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
