"Evidence of Harm "
"Mercury in Vaccines and the Autism Epidemic : A Medical Controversy" Author, Mr. David Kirby 2005 http://www.evidenceofharm.com TV Show soon! |
"In the 1990's, reported autism cases among American children began spiking, from about 1 in 10,000 in 1987 to a shocking 1 in 166 children today ." (Actually it is now 1 in 66 Boys !) In this period, more shots containing a mercury-based preservative called Thimerosal were added to the nations already crowed vaccination schedule. At the same time, some parents noticed that their healthy children were descending into silent, disturbed, and physically ill behavior after receiving vaccinations. In 1999, the FDA announced that children were being exposed to mercury at very young ages at levels far exceeding federal regulations, but the public health establishment failed to take parental concern about the impact seriously."
This book explores the chilling possibility that mercury in vaccines caused an epidemic of autism, ADD, ADHD, and speech delay and other childhood disorders in the United States. Kirby, a New York Times contributor and journalist for more than 15 years, has written a disturbing, important narrative that examines both sides of this brewing controversy with the personal stories of the affected families and the unfolding political drama in the courts and halls of Congress.
