Vaccines, autism and scientific quackery

The sincere and justified concern of parents for their children, combined with pseudoscientific information, has resulted in the fact that a significant part of the European population is not vaccinated against mumps, measles, rubella and other diseases. If and when the epidemic breaks out again, the unvaccinated children, who have already become adults, will be the next victims.

In 2008, a 17-year-old boy died, the first measles death in the UK in two years. Although the triple vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella) has existed in England for a long time, the sad fact is that in London itself, less than half of the children received the two recommended doses of the triple vaccine, due to panic that spread among the public about the vaccines from the nineties until today. The clear result is a growing danger of a measles outbreak in Britain and Europe as a whole.

Measles is a particularly contagious disease, which mainly causes side effects in adults such as inflammation of the meninges, pneumonia and corneal scarring. The disease is especially dangerous for those with a weak immune system, such as the elderly and pregnant women, or even that 17-year-old in England who could not receive the measles vaccine due to his condition. In these cases, the measles virus kills the host in 30 percent of cases. Starting in 2008, the disease returned to being endemic - an epidemic that exists among the population - in Great Britain, for the first time in 14 years, and as a direct result of the decrease in the frequency of vaccinations.

Andrew Wakefield, the man who started the anti-vaccination campaign, claimed in 2002 that "the doctors, the gurus, treat the public as a mass of idiots, unable to make a decision for themselves, based on the available information."

is that so?

In 1998, Doctor Andrew Wakefield organized a celebratory press conference in Great Britain, in which he made strong claims against the triple vaccine, which protects against mumps, measles and rubella. While in the spotlight, Wakefield reported that eight children he studied were diagnosed as autistic just one month after receiving the triple vaccine between the ages of one and two. As a testament to his credibility, Wakefield's research was published in one of the most respected medical journals - The Lancet. The British doctor proposed a new theory, according to which the measles virus in the triple vaccine causes inflammation in the intestines of children, thus allowing harmful proteins to penetrate from the intestines into the bloodstream and reach the brain. From the moment they reach the brain, those proteins are able to affect the central nervous system in ways that are not yet clear, but the end result is painfully clear: delayed brain development, which leads to autism.

In medical schools, the joke is well known according to which, "If you ask ten doctors whether the sun rises in the east, you will get ten different answers." The medical community, since time immemorial, tends to a wide variety of opinions and different interpretations of the facts. But despite this diversity, the results of the study were met with particularly strong opposition from the medical community from the very beginning. The main problem was that Wakefield's findings were not statistically significant, and even expected. Every month around 50,000 children in the UK receive the triple vaccine, aged one or two. This is the same age when the signs of autism are usually detected, in one child out of two thousand in England. The simple statistics require that every month, 25 children will receive the triple vaccine and develop autism at about the same time.

Unfortunately, Wakefield made sure to downplay the importance of the statistic in his sensational press conference. He recommended separating the triple vaccine into three separate vaccines, to be given one year apart from each other. Although the recommendation sounds innocent at first glance, senior officials in England's medical administration have threatened to resign if it is accepted, and not out of mere stubbornness. Delaying the administration of the vaccine may lead to an extension of the period during which the young child is exposed to the impact of at least one of the childhood diseases - mumps, measles or rubella - which may themselves cause damage to the child's development and an epidemic outbreak in his environment. Given the lack of medical evidence for a link between vaccines and autism, the British government saw no reason to agree to Wakefield's recommendation.
They say that the only thing that spreads faster than a forest fire is a public protest, and it was indeed not shy to come. Public groups have organized to call for the triple vaccine to be discontinued. Alternative doctors, shamans, pagan healers and witches declared with genius that they always suspected that vaccines contained substances harmful to health, and immediately went back to chewing mushrooms and licking toads. Some of the established doctors also cooperated with the phenomenon. In one of the most serious cases, doctor David Fogg took advantage of the parents' fears and suggested vaccinating the children with three separate vaccines against measles, mumps and rubella, instead of the triple vaccine. And just in case you were wondering, the good doctor didn't volunteer to do it for free - his financial gain from those vaccinations was estimated at £17,500 every week. good money? Not from a moral point of view, because the fear soon arose that the separate vaccines were ineffective. To prove the effectiveness of the vaccines, Fogg agreed to do blood tests to make sure the children were indeed properly vaccinated. It is not clear whether he thought the separate vaccines really worked, but just to be safe, he replaced the children's blood samples with samples taken from his 26-year-old daughter, who had been vaccinated against the same diseases. When the affair broke, it turned out that the same doctor had 'vaccinated' around 8,000 children, although repeated tests revealed that some of them had not been vaccinated against the diseases at all. And the punishment? Nine months in prison for the doctor, and an indictment against his daughter, on charges of forgery.

While standing at the center of the storm he created, Wakefield continued his regular work at the Royal Free Hospital for three years, during which more and more research was accumulated disproving the link between the triple vaccine and autism. A study conducted in England on nearly 500 autistic children born between 1979 and 1992 showed that there was no increase in the incidence of autism cases even after the triple vaccine became part of the vaccination routine. The researchers also did not find that the administration of the triple vaccine results in more or fewer cases of autism near the time of administration of the vaccine, despite Wakefield's claim that the vaccine causes autism in a short time. Another study that relied on all electronic medical records accumulated between the XNUMXs and XNUMXs in the UK showed that more and more children were being diagnosed with autism, even though the frequency of giving the triple vaccine remained constant.

This latest study reveals a threatening trend of an increase in the incidence of autism cases in children. No parent can remain indifferent to the data, and rightly so, but the reason for the increase in incidence is still unclear. If we ask ten doctors, we can still get ten different answers, but the common belief is that parents as a whole have become more aware of the symptoms accompanying autism, and as soon as they see the first hint of a developmental problem, they take the child for a medical examination and diagnosis. Other doctors place the blame on the environmental pollution that affects the brain development of children in the mother's womb or after birth. Be that as it may, the link between the triple vaccine and autism was definitively ruled out in the aforementioned studies, which joined and supported the results of other studies that examined tens of thousands of children in Great Britain, the United States, Canada, Finland and Denmark.

But despite all the subsequent studies, Wakefield remains firm in his opinion that the triple vaccine causes developmental problems. He continued to stick to his idea even after he resigned from his job at the hospital in 2001, admitting that he was asked to leave because the results of his research were not popular. The study's popularity continued to decline, finally crashing three years later, when Nicholas Charles Chadwick examined 22 autistic children, including those Wakefield was examining at the time, and declared that no sign of the measles virus that was supposed to cause enteritis could be found in their intestines.

We have already said that rumors spread like wildfire. But forest fires at least end eventually, when they consume the fuel they need. Rumors, however, can always find an alternative source of ignition. Back when Wakefield was 'fired' from his hospital, and all the scientific evidence testified against the link between the triple vaccine and autism, the public panic over the appearance of a chemical substance that had been present in vaccines for over fifty years - thimerosal - grew. This substance functions as a bactericidal preservative and contains 50% ethylmercury. Mercury, as we know, is not a sympathetic substance in high doses in children, and may cause neurological and developmental problems. In 1999, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States found that children receive about 187.5 micrograms of mercury in the first six months of their lives. Although there were no data indicating that such quantities cause damage, the administration preferred to act with commendable responsibility and recommended the removal of mercury from the vaccines given to young children.

Now the protest groups and the preservation of the quality of the American environment have also joined the campaign, and have been quick to jump on thimerosal as a source of great loot. To this day, you can search for the word 'vaccines' on the Internet, and find sites that strongly claim that thimerosal is the cause of autism. The main concern is that the ethylmercury, in its journey through the human body, will shed the mercury group, which will connect to various factors inside the cells and cause mercury poisoning. The concern arises mainly from the familiarity with another substance - methylmercury - which is a close cousin of ethylmercury and has a half-life of 44 days in the human body.

But is there evidence of the harm of thimerosal in babies?

A closer look at the research scene nowadays reveals a very different picture. As of today, according to FDA recommendations, almost all vaccines containing thimerosal have been phased out. Because of this, we would expect to see a sharp decline in autism cases. To test the issue, a study was conducted in Sweden and Denmark, where the use of thimerosal was stopped already in 1992. The researchers followed the population of toddlers in those countries, between 1980 and 2000, and clearly showed that in the 30,000s the number of autism cases began to increase, but contrary to expectations, the upward trend continued as well After stopping the use of thimerosal in routine vaccines. This fact supports the idea that thimerosal does not cause autism. In another study in Canada, almost XNUMX children were examined, and it was shown that not only is thimerosal not linked to autism, but that it may actually have a positive effect, because the highest incidence of developmental defects was found precisely in children who were exposed to vaccines without thimerosal.

These studies join the results of five other studies conducted using data collected from hundreds of thousands of toddlers in the United States and England, and repeatedly prove that there is no connection between autism and thimerosal. These studies are joined by two pieces of evidence that stand at the heart of the mechanism by which mercury affects the body. The first is really ancient, and is the simple fact that mercury poisoning has symptoms that include changes in speech, movement, touch, vision and head circumference. These symptoms are fundamentally different from the symptoms found in children with autism.

The second piece of evidence emerged a year ago in a study published in the Pediatrics magazine and showed that thimerosal breaks down in the baby's body at an extremely rapid rate. Unlike methylmercury, thimerosal has a half-life of less than four days, and therefore the fear of its assimilation in the body is largely reduced. These studies sealed the deal, as far as the medical community is concerned, on the link between thimerosal and vaccines for autism.

But, as we have already said, rumors are difficult to stop, especially because it is human nature to establish an opinion first, and only then try to find support for it. The link between the triple vaccine and autism has been ruled out, as has the link between thimerosal and autism, but soon a new hypothesis emerged: the vaccines put severe pressure on the baby's immune system, leading to an overreaction of the nervous system and causing autism. This theory gained momentum and support mainly thanks to the case of Hannah Pauling.

Hannah Poling was a baby like all babies. She loved playing with toys, crawling on the carpet and laughing at being tickled. When she was one year old, Hana suffered from a period of recurring ear infections, as a result of which the routine vaccination dates were postponed. To fill in the gap, Hana, one and a half years old, received five vaccinations in one day, against nine different diseases. About three months after receiving the vaccine, Hana began to show signs of autism. In an unprecedented determination, a team of experts on behalf of the American government determined that the vaccines worsened a unique health problem of Hana, and resulted in causing irreversible brain damage.

It turns out that Hana suffered from a metabolic problem, which caused the mitochondria in her body to fail. Mitochondria are small organelles found inside the cells of the body, and they supply the energy to the cells. According to the medical committee that discussed the case, the high dose of vaccines caused Hana's illness to erupt unexpectedly and damage her brain.

The case was published in newspapers on the front pages, under the title, "The first link between autism and vaccines was discovered", and became routine proof of the harm of vaccines. But even here it is worth putting your finger on several points. First of all, Hana's illness is extremely rare among the population. Second, the experts in the field of mitochondrial diseases, including the 'United Institute for Mitochondrial Diseases', have never been exposed to the development of mitochondrial disease, or to the worsening of symptoms as a result of the administration of vaccines. Even the neurologist who first diagnosed Hana's illness did not agree with the compensation committee's decision.

Can the vaccines really put unnecessary pressure on the fetus's immune system? This claim still requires refutation, because the prevalence of autism among vaccinated, non-vaccinated children and those who received vaccines gradually and over a longer period of time than usual has not been tested. Even so, the most conservative estimates predict that a toddler's body is capable of responding to thousands of vaccines at once. While vaccines usually only contain one protein from the virus envelope, which cannot attack the body, the child's immune system is faced with 4-6 viruses each year, each of which puts a much greater burden on the immune system.

Another possibility is that the combined administration of the vaccines weakens the immune system, similar to the situation obtained after a serious illness. The knowledge we have indicates that this possibility does not exist either. Vaccinated and non-vaccinated children do not differ in their resistance to diseases against which they were not vaccinated. Apart from that, vaccines given in combination provide the body with the same protection as that obtained from vaccines given separately.
Last but not least, autism is not a disease related to the immune system. There is no evidence of inflammation in the meninges or the central nervous system in children with autism. One of the most accepted hypotheses today is that autism is a product of genetic differences between children, side by side with environmental influences acting on the mother or the tender child. Although it is still not clear what the environmental influences are that increase the prevalence of autism, research in these directions is advancing tirelessly.

What is the end of the story?

Andrew Wakefield left the hospital in Great Britain, immigrated to the United States and is currently continuing his research at the 'Contemplative House' - a center for autistic children in Texas. These days, a lawsuit is pending against him for the professional dishonesty he allegedly demonstrated in writing the article that led to mass hysteria. He is accused of receiving payments from parents who sought to prove that their children had autism as a result of receiving the triple vaccine, and that he did not explicitly state this in the article. Among other things, he is also accused of performing invasive tests - colonoscopies, biopsies of the intestine and lumbar puncture into the spinal cord of the children who participated in the experiment - without adequate approval and against the clinical interest of the children.

As for the triple vaccination, it is still practiced in England, much to Wakefield's disappointment. It is possible that the source of this disappointment is not altruistic concern for others, as the journalist Brian Deere revealed that the doctor registered a patent for a single and 'safe' vaccine against measles even before he published his research and recommendations, but forgot to mention this fact in the published article. If the government had agreed to the individual vaccination regimen that he proposed, it is likely that a significant portion of the royalties for the administration of the individual vaccine would have reached his pocket as well.

And most importantly - what is the state of the public? The vaccine panic spread in many countries and caused a sharp decrease in the number of people vaccinated against childhood diseases. The sincere and justified concern of parents for their children, combined with pseudoscientific information, has resulted in the fact that a significant part of the European population is not vaccinated against mumps, measles, rubella and other diseases. In 2007, the Health Protection Agency warned of a real fear of an outbreak of the measles epidemic in Great Britain, and under these conditions there does not seem to be any chance of eradicating the measles virus in Europe in the coming years. The 17-year-old who recently died of measles is only the tip of the iceberg, because if and when the epidemic breaks out again, the unvaccinated children, who have already become adults, will be the next victims.

The issue was recently brought up in a program on Channel 10 hosted by Orna Ben Dor and Prof. Rafi Karso. Yaki Manchenfreund on the Seventh Eye website about the program and the damage that may be caused by it.

    You asked for studies that show there is no connection between vaccines and autism.
    You have received a list of such studies.

    You're just a cheeky boy. or stupid I have not decided yet….

  2. for miracles:
    I have already mentioned here many times:
    Don't send me to read unrelated encyclopedias.
    This attitude is the attitude of those who want to exhaust themselves.
    Short and sweet:
    Ten thousand received. Ten thousand did not receive.
    find the differences.

  3. ב
    I understand that the articles in the language are too difficult for you….
    It is proven beyond any doubt that the tested vaccines do not cause autism.
    (You see ... I left you a loophole ... you can always argue that the vaccine against chocobuloc disease has not been tested).

    I understand that you suggest not vaccinating children to satisfy your "skepticism"? Not only is it illegal, it's also a bit sick, isn't it?

  4. Miracles:
    You brought a long article.
    It's not that I didn't try but I just gave up.
    Short and sweet :
    Not a study of a thousand children who received different types of vaccines at different strengths.
    But rather:
    A study that will compare ten thousand adults who received the injection as children and ten thousand adults who did not receive the injection as children.
    Today it is very easy to carry out such a statistical study.
    Only such research will bring to light the power of statistics.
    -------------------------
    If you understand it then you can explain it to a third grader.
    If you can't write it on the wing of the van, it's too cumbersome.

    The court ruled based on expert testimony. Why are you arguing without knowing what you are talking about????
    What a 22 boy experiment? There are large-scale studies on vaccines. Unlike you, I checked before responding.
    Go ahead - start reading, including the references. After that you will be able to respond more wisely….

  6. incidentally:
    According to what I read about him:
    He did not suffer: not from dementia, not from Alzheimer's, and not from any other disease.
    He also did not die from the beatings he received in the hospital.
    After all that he just went back to the hospital and called all his students for a demonstration lesson.
    The lesson was carried out by dissecting corpses.
    He claimed that if he made a cut in his hand and touched the pus on the body with the cut, then he too would die of the same disease (sepsis, puerperal fever) and so it was.
    He sacrificed his life in order to prove his righteousness.
    In any case, I remember that I once read in a book that told the story of his life.

  7. for miracles:
    A) With all due respect, a determination by a court does not constitute scientific proof.
    b) An examination of 22 children does not constitute a scientific experiment.
    Because of:
    1) This is not a large enough sample.
    2) They were tested after receiving the injection. (I assume it was a long time after they got the shot).
    There was no control group and the entire process before receiving the injection, while receiving the injection and after receiving the injection was not tested.
    c) It is not clear what we will discover if we go into the details of the other experiments that were performed. whether they meet scientific criteria or not.
    d) The easiest thing to do and the most convincing thing that should have been done was not done (according to what I know).
    In other words, they did not conduct an experiment in which a large and random group of those who received an injection participated compared to a large and random group of those who did not receive the injection.
    e) This is the place to mention the severe suffering of Dr. Zemlvis who fought the establishment even though justice was with him and even though the statistics showed that justice was with him.

    The connection between vaccines and autism has been tested many times. It has been unequivocally proven that there is no connection.
    The whole story about a connection between vaccines and autism is an article from 98 in an English medical journal, the journal is called The Lancet. At the end of the affair it was determined "On 24 May 2010, the GMC panel found Wakefield guilty of serious professional misconduct on four counts of dishonesty and 12 involving the abuse of developmentally challenged children".

    Enough with the nonsense 🙂

  9. "When Nicholas Charles Chadwick examined 22 autistic children, including those that Wakefield examined at the time, and declared that in their intestines no sign of the measles virus that was supposed to cause enteritis could be found."

    And this is called scientific research?
    Suppose someone who knows nothing about tsunamis would arrive in the area one day after the tsunami.
    His conclusions were something like:
    No reason found.

  10. Today there is a sufficiently large population of people who have not received the vaccine injection.
    It is possible to do a statistical study on the percentage of autistics in the population that did not receive the vaccine injection
    Vs
    The percentage of autistics in the population that received the injection.
    There is no doubt that such a study will settle once and for all the question of the connection between autism and the vaccine injection.
    Why don't you hear about such a study?
    Was it not done?
    Was it carried out and not published?

  11. fed up fed up fed up of not finding the cause of autism and not unequivocally stating unanimously that it cannot be changed

    confuses the mind

    Let them find the reason already

  12. Peace,

    I am the father of two children on the autistic spectrum.
    Not a nano scientist, maybe a nano scientist , who researched some options for treating autism.

    The definition "autistic sequence" or "autistic spectrum" is not accidental, there is probably no such disease as autism
    Rather, it is a collection of deficiencies, which are expressed with different intensity, if at all, in each individual case.

    Since the diagnosis is based on the DSM, only the psychiatric disabilities are described, but everyone who is close
    The subject noticed that this is only one side, admittedly the most dramatic, but the "abnormality" also manifests itself in problems
    Additional physical problems such as intestinal problems, recurrent ear infections, sensory regulation, food allergies, metabolic problems and more.

    Probably various origin problems that will eventually manifest in autistic behavior, such as a mitochondrial problem
    In one case or mercury poisoning in another case.

    The plausible assumption is that a combination of extensive genetic defects that cause sensitivity and a collection of environmental vulnerabilities that amplify each other can cause a dramatic effect that will manifest itself in autism.

    One of the common mistakes is to treat only a single factor such as mercury or a vaccine and not the cumulative effect.

    For example, in a study conducted on mice, he gave a combination of mercury and lead in an apparently low dose:
    Mercury in a dose that causes death in one percent of the population - 1LD and lead in a dose of 1/20 1LD
    The result - death of the entire 100LD population.
    Schubert J, Rilley EJ, Tyler SA (1978) Combined effects in toxicology

    In addition, not all of us have the same ability to eliminate toxins:

    "The timing of exposure is a critical determinant of toxicity. For example, the developing fetus is 5-10 times more sensitive to mercury, and the human brain undergoes enormous growth and maturation processes in the first year of life. Mercury is known to interfere with these growth mechanisms. Exposures that occur during critical "developmental windows" are harmful most.

    There is a huge difference between people in the ability to tolerate mercury, and factors such as genetic makeup, age, sex and health status also have an effect. Among adults, a 78-fold variation has been reported, and among infants, this variation may reach up to 10,000-fold. Metabolism and detoxification can also be greatly altered. In studies conducted on animals, toxins were not excreted among newborns, but after weaning from milk, and an eating regimen based on milk increased the absorption of metals in the intestines. The production of bile juices in an adequate amount is also necessary for the excretion of toxins, and is usually not found in sufficient quantity in babies. The flora in the intestines (good bacteria) also plays a role in breaking down mercury for excretion, therefore as a result of the use of antibiotics, the amount of mercury excretion is reduced. Stress and diseases are known to cause a decrease in glutathione levels, which will lead to a decrease in mercury excretion."

    The following study shows a correlation between the amount of mercury eliminated in the hair of normal babies and the amount they were exposed to during pregnancy (amalgam fillings and fish consumption by the mother) and following vaccinations.
    On the other hand, in autistic children, the more severe the symptoms, the lower the amount of mercury in the hair was observed.

    In the following study they showed that there is more accumulation of mercury in the body of autistic children:

    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17497416?ordinalpos=1&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_Discovery_RA&linkpos=2&log$=relatedarticles&logdbfrom=pubmed

    A search in PubMed for the combination Autism + Detoxification will lead to similar studies

    Mercury also damages the DPP IV enzyme, one of whose functions is the proper breakdown of proteins such as milk protein - casein and gluten, without this enzyme these proteins break down into casomorphin and glutomorphin peptides respectively.
    The suffix morphine is not mycaric. These peptides are also called opioids - morphine-like or exomorphins and act like a drug on the brain, when they compete with the natural hormone endomorphin.
    In the case of chronic intestinal infections or unbalanced flora in the intestines, a condition of "leaky gut" can arise
    And those peptides can reach the brain.
    Tests show really high levels of IgG antibodies to those proteins and foods (from personal experience)

    Problems with the immune system, many studies show abnormal functioning of the immune system, including findings that show an inflammatory process in the brain, possibly due to those peptides.
    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19157572?ordinalpos=4&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum

    From everything but it is possible to construct an explanation in which the MMR is only part of the same rolling snowball that eventually caused autism

    - Problem genes
    – Impaired detoxification
    - A problematic immune system
    - Vaccines that contain mercury, aluminum, pomerlin, which damage the aforementioned systems
    - The vaccines sometimes contain weakened organisms that challenge the immune system
    - Environmental exposure to toxins such as PCB pesticides, etc

    After a year in which the immune system is even more damaged (underactive or autoimmune overactive) a virus
    The weakened measles of the MMR will not be eliminated and will not even be recognized by the IgG antibodies and will cause an autoimmune reaction in the intestines and brain (by 1TH cells).

    A similar reaction can be caused by a reaction to the streptococcus bacteria in which the immune system damages a protein in the brain that is similar
    to the protein of group A beta-hemolytic streptococci -GABHS.

  14. Roy Shalom,
    I read your article carefully, and beyond the concentration, the processing and the output of the essence of the subject, which were done in a very professional manner, the article is interesting and summarizes the whole subject well.
    Since the topic has been very hot in recent years, the link to your article serves me well in all the discussions on the topic in the various forums on the net.
    Do you know of a parallel / similar article in English? I would like to use it in online discussions in English.

    Best regards,

  15. Hello everyone,
    I wanted to recommend a new website that went live that is intended for people with special needs and their families. You can find a lot of important and up-to-date information there.

  16. There is a certain risk, but it is zero and you can never know if the risk will not fall on your child, it is simply a bet to vaccinate and also a bet not to vaccinate. Which bet is more dangerous is for everyone to decide for themselves.

  17. How do you change DNA with a laser? do you read what you write A laser is a concentrated energy beam, you can cut with it and weld with it, but changes at the level of the cell nucleus are made with the help of biochemistry and not by welding and cutting with heat. In any case, it is recommended for biochemists to wear a welding mask before welding DNA. Is it possible to do DNA modulation with oxygen welding?

  18. Dawn:
    Regarding your comment on autism that was released only recently:
    There are sick and there are healthy.
    These are words that were invented to express certain things and were not authorized to be removed from the Hebrew language.
    However, I agree with what I think you are trying to say although I don't think you chose the right words.
    In my opinion, the value of a person is not derived from his level of health.
    This does not mean that there is no health and illness. It just means that these are not criteria in determining a person's worth.
    If we don't recognize the existence of a disease, we won't be able to treat it, and I'm sure you don't want that either.

  19. Dawn:
    Your advice is interesting.
    I will think of her the day I think I know everything.
    In the meantime I'm researching because I know I don't know everything.

    You still haven't answered me how, in your opinion, resources can be invested in technology that has not yet been discovered.

  20. You have the right to your own opinion.
    just know this -
    The day you are convinced that you know everything - it's time to explore more.

    I hope my words will inspire future studies that will explain in a more scientific way the vast possibilities of the human brain.

  21. Dawn:
    I repeat.
    It is not clear to me how it is that you do not know that the issue of the placebo has been studied for a long time (in fact it is quite clear to me that you actually know that it has been studied and you draw your "research proposals" from the research that has already been carried out and is being carried out).
    You propose to direct resources to the modulation of the DNA and then you say that it is something that has not yet been discovered and that it will only be realized after the "true completion" of the genome mapping (what is "true completion" and why is the mapping that has already been done incomplete?).
    Maybe you can explain to us how resources are diverted to something that has not yet been discovered?

    Shahar - I think you're just pretending and you're not even doing it skillfully.

    Daniel Tammet - an autistic genius

    http://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%93%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%90%D7%9C_%D7%98%D7%90%D7%9E%D7%98

    I'm not trying to say that all autistics are geniuses, but to show examples where autistics are an advantage. (maybe not for a family that needs to raise, take care of)

    In any case, there is no good or bad, sick or healthy and certainly not determined by us. Every advantage has a disadvantage and vice versa.

  23. With all due respect to New Age medicine, they use principles they don't know how to work, but know they work.
    Conventional doctors also use placebos for research and even for healing.
    The scientific community needs to investigate the way this thing works in depth in order to take advantage of it in modern medicine and create an application for the rest of the "Amaha".

    The placebo effect has a huge impact on how the body heals itself and how the immune system is infected or not by viruses.

    DNA modulation is a principle that will be realized after the real completion of the genome mapping and further understanding about the DNA coil and what goes through this coil. It is actually about changing DNA by laser for medical purposes even after the person has already been born. A principle of healing and not of cloning or synthesizing a more advanced person.

    After mapping the muscular system, blood vessels, nerves, tissues, etc... the energetic body can be mapped today as well. The flow of energy and its centers.

    All of this is related because the article also deals with vaccines which, in my opinion, will disappear from the world as soon as the next revolution in medicine begins.

  24. And again, Shahar:
    What is "DNA modulation" and how is it used to transfer resources in medical research?
    What does this nonsense have to do with this?
    How come you don't know that the placebo effect has indeed been studied and found to be the main mechanism of action of all new age medicine?

  25. Dawn:
    you are rambling
    Without special treatment the autistic people would simply die.
    You can say the same about mongoloids and psychopaths.
    Your talk about Stephen Hawking is without any basis and does not agree with the fact that many scientists of a higher caliber than himself did not suffer from any disease (and by the way - he does not have a brain disorder).

  26. I have spent numerous times with autistic guys, in social activities at their school or in my after classes.

    The general functioning that you call impaired is what makes them different from you and the rest of the person.
    The lesson they go through in a lifetime prepares them to understand their message themselves and pass it on to those around them.
    Their innate high insights take into account other systems that humans define as normal.

    Stephen Hawking, without his brain disorder, would not have arrived at his complex theory.

    Have you heard of the "rain man"??

    In short, the superficial definitions of stupid people create alienation between people instead of growth.

  27. By the way - Shahar:
    What is "DNA modulation" and how is it used to transfer resources in medical research?
    What does this nonsense have to do with this?
    How come you don't know that the placebo effect has indeed been studied and found to be the main mechanism of action of all new age medicine?

  28. Dawn:
    I guess you've never seen an autistic person.
    Accepting the other is usually one of the things they have more difficulty with.
    They have difficulty functioning in general (in relation to other human beings) and congenital difficulties in functioning are a disease - whether you recognize it or not.

  29. Autism is not a disease but a blessing.
    Everyone here has something to learn from the autistics' message to the world - understanding, acceptance and tolerance.

    As for the vaccines - over time the supporters of the medication will be deceived.
    Resources must be transferred in medical research by DNA modulation.

    Also, the "placebo" effect and its consequences on the functioning of the brain, body and immune system must be investigated in depth.

    Successfully!

  30. Thanks for the links. In the present article, the reference is to the prevalence of autism detected between the ages of one and two years, and as you can see in the link attached by 'Punkut', at this age less than one percent of all autistics are detected.
    So in conclusion, there is no contradiction between the things.

  31. The data refers, of course, to all people on the autism spectrum, in all degrees of difficulty and ability:
    The data of the NAS:
    http://www.autism.org.uk/nas/jsp/polopoly.jsp?a=3527&d=235
    (penultimate paragraph: "Rate is valued in the United Kingdom").
    The BBC data:
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7841808.stm
    (Third paragraph "116 out of 10,000". That is: more than 1% of the population).
    The Guardian newspaper's data:
    http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/besttreatments/autism-how-common
    (4 to 6 out of 1,000. That is: at least one out of every 250).

  32. AC spokesperson:
    Roy did not claim that signs of autism are detected in one child out of 2000 in the UK.
    He claimed that such signs are detected in one out of every 2000 one to two year olds.
    It is possible that such signs are detected in other children at other ages.
    I don't know the facts - I'm just trying to clarify what is written.

  33. Greetings,

    In writing, I relied on the testimony of Professor Paul Ophit, a pediatrician and international expert on vaccines, who has already participated in the writing of many books related to vaccines. Among other things, he also wrote an entire book on the phenomenon of autism and the connection between it and vaccines, and recently published an in-depth review in the scientific journal Vaccines. In the review, Offit reports that the incidence of autism cases in England in 1998 was one child out of two thousand, based on a study by Chen and DeStefano, published in 1998 in the journal The Lancet.

    The problem may be with their definition of 'signs of autism', or the NAS and The Times are referring to figures from the last year (although it doesn't sound likely that the number of autistics in the UK has jumped twenty-fold in ten years). If you can post here the exact links and references you say, we will all be hired.

    thanks for the reply,

    Roy.

  34. Roy Cezana claims that signs of autism are found in one out of every two thousand children in Britain.
    On the other hand, the British Autistic Society (NAS) claims that signs of autism are detected in one out of every hundred children in the UK.
    The Autism Research Center in Cambridge also claims that signs of autism are detected in one in every hundred children in the UK.
    The Times newspaper also claims that signs of autism are detected in one out of every hundred children in the UK.

  35. Research shows that parents who regularly watch the commercial entertainment channels (for example Channel 2 and 10) are more likely to raise retarded children.

  36. Those unvaccinated parasites benefit from the fact that others are vaccinated so the disease cannot spread.

  37. From the shelves of the 'sciences' and 'gamblings' there is always "what does not destroy a warehouse",,,

  38. Natural thinning of the population due to existing natural diseases
    It is even better for the world we live in, and for the continued existence of the human race
    and the rest of the variety of species that exist in the world
    Man multiplies and spreads in the world like a virus, destroying it at breakneck speed.

    If all these vaccines had never existed
    Our world was a much better place to live
    Without the warming of the climate, without the destruction of the species diversity that disappeared and more...
    And humans were much more naturally immune to these diseases
