Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Vaccine Data Leads Scientists To Shocking Discovery

National Autism Association Release:
2/9/2004

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the Institute of Medicine will hold a one-day meeting to review important new research on the link between thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative in vaccines, and neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism. One of the larger studies under review comes from the CDC's own Vaccine Safety Datalink. Under independent investigation, CDC's data concludes children are 27-times more likely to develop autism after exposure to three thimerosal-containing vaccines (TCVs), than those who receive thimerosal-free versions.

The findings are not only disturbing to government officials like U.S. Rep. Dave Weldon, M.D. (R-FL), who is also scheduled to speak before the IOM panel, they suggest autism via TCVs has a higher relative risk than that between lung cancer and smoking, which according to the American Cancer Society is only 22 for men and 11 for women. "This absolutely confirms what parents have been saying for years," says Jo Pike, President, National Autism Association. Like Pike, thousands of parents have reported sharp regressions in their children following a TCV and many of those children have gone on to receive a label of autism. An easy mistake to make since the symptoms of autism and mercury poisoning are almost identical.

Dr. Mark Geier is the lead investigator in the discovery. A medical doctor with a Ph.D. in genetics, he, along with fellow researcher, David Geier, will discuss their findings of the CDC data in front of an IOM panel. Among a host of other physicians and researchers presenting will be Dr. Jeff Bradstreet. He will discuss the results from his peer-reviewed study which concluded that urinary mercury concentrations were six times higher in children with autism vs. normal-age/vaccine-matched controls.

The presentations will begin at 8:00 AM at The National Academy of Sciences, Auditorium 2100 C Street NW. Dr. Mark Geier and David Geier are scheduled to present their findings at 12:15 PM. Weldon speaks at 8:00. Bradstreet at 4:00. For an agenda, go to: http://www.iom.edu/event.asp?id=17047. For information about the National Autism Association, go to http://www.nationalautism.org/.

My analysis. There is no doubt the CDC Datalink numbers were manipulated and changed over time to support the "vaccines don't cause autism" theory. The "27 times (2700%)" number which is used is based on the original data which has not been released to the public, even via FOIA discoveries. There are confidential documents however that suggest that vaccinated children are 11 times more likely to develop autism. (see Safe Minds 2003 Analysis below). I also want to point out that Dr Mark Geier, the lead investigator in the discovery of the "27 times" data, as well as other members of his family are involved in autism-vaccine damage litigation. Dr Geier has done his own studies showing a vaccine-autism connection and has a financial stake in this debate, thus, many pro-vaccine supporters have questioned the validity of his "27 times" figure obtained in his investigation. That however doesn't change the fact that figures were manipulated as you will discover in the documents below. Also See:

Safe Minds 2003 Analysis of CDC Datalink Information (pdf) This critique shows without a doubt CDC Datalink numbers were manipulated in a concerted effort to distort the facts.

FOIA released Internal E-mails. These e-mails show the person in charge of doctoring these numbers for the CDC had a hidden agenda to disprove the Autism-Vaccine connection.
