• The CDC finally plans to study the potential link between vaccines and autism, after decades of anecdotal evidence going ignored.
• Autism rates have skyrocketed from 1 in 1,000 children in the early 2000s, to 1 in 36 in 2022, raising urgent questions about environmental and medical factors.
• After the landmark study was announced, the pharma-funded media went into overdrive, hyping up measles cases in Texas that follow annual trends in the US for reported measles cases.
• Paul Offit and other vaccine profiteers fear that the new CDC study could further erode public trust in vaccines, even though it aims to answer legitimate questions regarding vaccine safety.
• Parents of vaccine injured children watched their children lose brain functions and communication abilities following routine vaccinations, and they believe these kinds of studies are long overdue to address the autism epidemic.

Media pushes MMR vaccines, the same vaccine that is often correlated with autism

After decades of stonewalling on this critical public health issue, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is reportedly preparing to investigate the potential link between vaccines and autism. This connection has been dismissed by mainstream health authorities for decades. This bombshell decision comes as autism rates continue to climb alarmingly, with 1 in 36 children now diagnosed with the condition. After the study was announced, the pharma funded media went into overdrive, hyping up reported measles cases in Texas that follow similar trends as years’ past. This hysteria is intended to get more parents to submit their children to the MMR vaccines at one year’s old and at four to six years old. Coincidentally, this is the same vaccine that is often correlated with autism diagnoses.

The CDC’s move raises critical questions about the role of vaccine ingredients, such as aluminum and thimerosal, in damaging the developing brain. While the agency has long maintained that vaccines are safe and effective, mounting concerns from parents, researchers, and public health advocates suggest that the current childhood vaccine schedule—which includes up to 77 doses of multiple vaccines—may be overwhelming young immune systems and contributing to neurological harm.

The autism epidemic: a public health crisis ignored

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has become one of the most pressing public health crises of our time. In the early 2000s, autism affected approximately 1 in 1,000 children. By 2022, that number had surged to 1 in 36, according to the latest data from the CDC. While some experts attribute the rise to improved diagnostic tools and increased awareness, others point to environmental toxins, maternal health factors, and the potential role of vaccines in triggering neurological damage.

The debate over vaccines and autism dates back to the late 1990s, when British researcher Andrew Wakefield published a controversial study linking the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine to autism. Wakefield’s research was later discredited, and his medical license was revoked, but his findings ignited a global movement of parents and advocates questioning the safety of vaccines. Despite being gaslit by the medical establishment and the mainstream media, many parents remain unconvinced, citing anecdotal evidence of children regressing into autism shortly after receiving vaccines.

The role of vaccine ingredients in neurological damage

One of the most contentious issues in the vaccine-autism debate is the use of neurotoxic ingredients in vaccines, such as aluminum and thimerosal. Aluminum, a known neurotoxin, is used as an adjuvant in many vaccines to stimulate an immune response. However, studies have shown that aluminum also causes inflammation and can cross the blood-brain barrier, potentially damaging the developing brain, and leading to chronic fatigue syndrome.

Thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative, has also been implicated in neurological harm. Although thimerosal was removed from most childhood vaccines in the early 2000s, it is still used in some flu shots and other vaccines. Critics argue that even trace amounts of mercury can be harmful, particularly when combined with other toxins and administered in multiple doses during critical periods of brain development.

Dr. Paul Offit, a prominent vaccine advocate and director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has repeatedly dismissed concerns about vaccine ingredients, stating that “the question [of a vaccine-autism link] has been answered again and again and again.” However, many parents and researchers remain skeptical, pointing to the lack of long-term safety studies on the cumulative effects of multiple vaccines given to children under the age of two. When studies are conducted, there are links between vaccination and neurodevelopmental disorders, yet these studies are often dismissed or ignored as conspiracy.

A “measles outbreak” and the erosion of public trust

The CDC’s decision to revisit the vaccine-autism debate comes at a precarious time, as the U.S. grapples with a measles outbreak that has sickened over 150 people and is being attributed to two deaths in Texas and New Mexico. Health officials blame the outbreak on declining vaccination rates, particularly in communities where vaccine hesitancy is high.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the newly appointed Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary and a longtime critic of vaccine safety, has been accused of fueling vaccine hesitancy with his outspoken skepticism of the MMR vaccine and COVID-19 shots. While Kennedy recently urged parents to vaccinate their children against measles, he also emphasized that vaccination is a “personal choice,” a stance that has drawn criticism from public health experts.

Senator Bill Cassidy, a Louisiana Republican and physician, has expressed concern about Kennedy’s influence on vaccine policy, calling on him to disavow any connection between vaccines and autism. During a recent confirmation hearing, Kennedy denied being “anti-vaccine” but stopped short of acknowledging that the vaccine-autism link has been debunked.

A call for transparency and accountability

The CDC’s decision to study the vaccine-autism link has sparked outrage among some health experts, who fear it could further erode public trust in vaccines. Dr. Offit warned that reopening the debate could lead to even lower vaccination rates, exacerbating the measles outbreak and putting more lives at risk.

However, others argue that the study is long overdue, given the staggering rise in autism rates and the lack of comprehensive research into the potential role of vaccines and environmental toxins. Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a nominee to lead the National Institutes of Health, acknowledged that while he does not believe there is a link between vaccines and autism, the sharp rise in autism rates remains unexplained.

“We do have a sharp rise in autism rates, and I don’t think any scientist really knows the cause of it,” Bhattacharya said. “I would support a broad scientific agenda based on data to get an answer to that.”

The CDC’s decision to revisit the vaccine-autism debate marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing battle over vaccine safety and public health. As autism rates continue to climb and measles hysteria is spread by the media, the need for transparency, accountability, and rigorous scientific inquiry has never been greater.

For too long, the voices of concerned parents and independent researchers have been dismissed, while the pharmaceutical industry and government agencies have maintained a stranglehold on the narrative. The CDC’s study, if conducted with integrity and independence, could finally shed light on the true causes of autism and restore public trust in the medical establishment.
