Can it get any worse?

So, they plan to ignore the concerns of the actual people who are

dealing with autism. And, plan to dictate how we can medically care

for our affected children?

Oh, and the " Director " is going to be from the CDC..wonderful

Unbelievable.

BTW, That " best practices " Bull shit is a catch phrase/jargon I've

heard Pratt use many times.Some generic lingo. She probably

clued them in on how to say something without really saying anything

at all.

I'm fuming.

Looking forward to getting some direction from our key organizations.

Thanks for the update Lenny.

Could this be MUCH worse than we all

thought???!!! I think I’m going to be sick. If I call all of my reps

right now I might start swearing. -

Subject: CAA: A Trojan

Horse

The latest version of the CAA bill, which came out Tuesday, includes

this new language:

(3) Implementation of best practices.—The Secretary, acting through

the Director, shall promote research to determine evidence-based best

practices for diagnosis or rule out, treatment, and intervention

strategies for individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other

developmental disabilities.

The " Director " this refers to is the director of the CDC. This raises

some disturbing questions, the gravest of which is that this language

allows the CDC to ban biomedical treatments -- biomedical treatments

like chelation, for example.

The current CAA not only has none of the vaccine research language the

consensus coalition promoted and that was recently stripped out; it

now contains language that is devastating to families with autism

seeking biomedical treatments. This legislation is a trojan horse.

In it's current form, it should be strenuously opposed, but there is

little time to do so. This language has been tacked on to the bill

just before it gets fast tracked through the house and senate for

quick passage. This could become law within days and we will have been

betrayed again unless we can do something about it.

Autism organizations who have supported the CAA are now in the process

of assessing these latest developments. I expect we will hear some

pointed announcements over the next 24 hours from some groups, and the

sounds of silence from others.

A similar alert to this effect will appear later today in the Schafer

Autism Report. What can we do? Stay tuned. . .

Please focus you attention on the U.S. Senate. This bill is unfair, not right, wrong, a screw job, rip off, and all other negative things.

For those without the benefits of foresight, the CAA bill wants to set up CDC to ban treatments BEFORE they are in any way legally obligated to pay for them.

They KNOW they are guilty. They KNOW they caused this epidemic of autism. They KNOW that they can count on CDC to "legalize" their continued forms of child neglect and child abuse.

Hopefully, we can all see that they are looking ahead to the day when we families square off in *some* kind of legal setting. Regardless of which treatments help which children if they have a CDC ban on these treatments *somebody* is not legally obligated to pay for them.

The analogy of the government presenting some of us families with the CAA "poisoned apple" is most fitting. Please do not bite.

Please keep hounding the Senate with calls, faxes, and E-mails.

I agree. And I wonder if maybe it was naive to ever think we could

get the government to fund appropriate, productive and useful

research. Even if they were to further examine vaccines, what's to

prevent them from just funding additional BS vaccine studies like the

ones we have now? Is this yet ANOTHER thing we parents will

ultimately have to do ourselves???

Actually, best practice guidelines are critically significant.

Doctors are expected to conduct their practices in accordance with

principles delineated in these guidelines. Departure from them can

create liability and censure (or even lost of licensure) for a

physician. For example, if AAP best practice guidelines require that

all infants be screened for developmental disabilities at their 18

month check up (this would be a " good " best practice), and a

pediatrician does not conduct a screening at that time, he/she is

potentially liable for resultant damages. On the flip-side, if a

best practice guideline states that children with ASD not be worked

up for GI and immune issues (I believe that there is an AAP guideline

to that effect out there), then if a pediatrician were to order such

tests, he/she could create liability for themselves by doing so

(e.g., if something went awry in administering the tests). Best

practice guidelines are also intimately tied to medical insurance

coverage.

The language addition re best practice guidelines that Lenny is

referring to is a BIG deal.

Jenna,

I see what you are saying about " best practices " . My point was I

have heard that term thrown out by a certain autism " expert " and she

uses it ambiguously.

As soon as I read the phrase " best practice " that is what I thought

of ambiguity/generic/eclectic.

The way things are going based on what Lenny said with CAA and the

points you brought up any " best practices " probably isn't going to

be in favor of getting our kids healthy. Especially if they are

going to dictate treament options.

This sounds like an opportunity for us to walk into court and blow

this up in their faces. How many parents could we find to testify

that chelation works? Would any jury decide 100 parents showed up to

lie about it? I think it would be a nice precedent to have to throw

into the autism omnibus case. Any lawyers here think this would be

an easy win?

Kerbob;

All that stuff is why one of us turning ourselves in for using

chelation if it's made illegal and getting a jury trial would work in

our favor. The door is wide open for us to present any evidence we

want in our own defense. They can muddy the waters but they can't

deny cured children.

Is the " Director " from the CDC or the NIH? I thought it was the NIH

Director that was supposed to be made autism czar.

I'm used to seeing " evidence based " before the words " best practice. "

Where's the evidence?

Dr Deth tells us that the kids improve because, once the mercury
