This was on the news, Robert Kennedy Jr wrote about the effects of vaccinations and the rise of Autism and ADD in kids. He could not get anyone to publish the article. It was finally published at this site. I could not get into the rest of it to read or I'd give you a summary.

This is horrible! (This does not belong in the political area even though written by Kennedy -- it is an open discussion on cover-up, public health, lies and sick kids, thank you)

Deadly immunity

When a study revealed that mercury in childhood vaccines may have caused autism in thousands of kids, the government rushed to conceal the data -- and to prevent parents from suing drug companies for their role in the epidemic.

By Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

June 16, 2005 | In June 2000, a group of top government scientists and health officials gathered for a meeting at the isolated Simpsonwood conference center in Norcross, Ga. Convened by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the meeting was held at this Methodist retreat center, nestled in wooded farmland next to the Chattahoochee River, to ensure complete secrecy.

The agency had issued no public announcement of the session -- only private invitations to fifty-two attendees. There were high-level officials from the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration, the top vaccine specialist from the World Health Organization in Geneva and representatives of every major vaccine manufacturer, including GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, Wyeth and Aventis Pasteur.

All of the scientific data under discussion, CDC officials repeatedly reminded the participants, was strictly "embargoed." There would be no making photocopies of documents, no taking papers with them when they left.

I stand corrected. Thank you. The news lady did make it into a cover-up but I still think it is the way I communicated it. I guess I did a bad job.

I do not see on that button that there is Robert Kennedy’s article about the cover-ups etc. Do you see it? I see the subject being brought to light then I see it being debunked. I stand corrected.

I do not see anything about the meeting and nobody could make copies etc. which does lend itself to being a cover-up. They wanted to discuss it and then be able to deny they discussed it in my opinion.

Robert K said on his interview that he could not get anyone to publish his findings. He said that these people brought this problem to him and he did research himself and found what they were saying to be true then wrote this article. At which point he could not get it published.

I knew there were others speaking of the vaccines, there is also much talk about the hepatitis B shot which has cause all kinds of problems. But it seems in the whole scope of things he would be accurate to say that this was not being brought to any great light, but more of an ignored rumble.

Who’d of thought Robert Kennedy would have trouble lending his name to the controversial topic. And that nobody would publish him?

I guess they did not want a NAME attached to it; somehow Kennedy might lend validation where before they were just a bunch of people saying something that was being ignored.

Seems like when no big name was attached to it, it did not make the news. Maybe you are more up on these things then I am. I have to go to meetings all the time on findings like this and health food, etc. But the vaccination thing is really never pulled apart in detail

But the things you have added more info so thanks for bringing it up.

Dot I have erad a lot on the ADD stuff and so far I havent come across...mercury, however I did hear recently that they did change formularies on vaccines from older onesthat did contain mercury, but I think that was in the 70's and related to birth defects.

Still the majority are better off for having the vaccine instead of dying from many of those old diseases. Course -- I know thats a hot button for many, but then there ya have it, my position.

I didn't read Long Gone's Google link, but I can say with certainty that this link (from the study Dot first referenced) was from 1 study. Since then they have tried to duplicate it's results many times with many studies and haven't been able to.

If there was a cover up then it was one that was trying to silence those saying the finding were legit. Something like this can have serious public health consequenses. For example, here in Boulder CO we have one of the lowest vaccination rates for pertusis. Why? Because of this damn study. So there are more and more kids here dying from Whopping Cough. The only reason a lot of them are not is because of "herd immunity". In other words, they don't get sick quite so often or spread it as much because the majority do still get their shots when they are required.

There is even a school here that doesn't require kids to have vaccinations. Insanity.

My wife has been working on this very thing.

Agreed, Daddy HD and Lindy Hopper. I've looked into it also and don't believe there is a conspiracy or coverup going on.

Heck, both of my Special Ed graduate level teachers mentioned that many experts have looked into it and concur that there is no scientific proof behind the theory. The people with credentials really aren't out to coverup solutions/breakthroughs in Science. They're going to school because they really do care and want to make a difference.

IMHO one of the dumbest things done in the last 30 years was to stop vaccinating children for smallpox. There are 3 known stores of that virus that I know of alive. One is in Atlanta (disease prevention center) the second is someplace else in the USA don't remember where and the 3rd is at the Pasteur Institute in France. At least that's the last I heard.

If I had my way, I would get vaccinated and/or immunized against any possible bug that one could get vaccinated or immunized against. Just my opinion though.

BTW - - the reason I think it's dumb to not vaccinate for small pox is NOT in case of terrorism, although that could be a case in these modern times, but against the accidental release of the stuff and how quickly it will spread and possibly mutate.
