Robert Kennedy on the Vaccine Autism Coverup

Share This

There has been much debate in recent years regarding whether childhood vaccinations pose a risk of autism development.  Much of the concern over vaccines centers on the mercury-based preserving agent, thimersol, which is being gradually phased out of vaccines, but still present in many of the vaccinations kids receive. 

While the evidence regarding a possible vaccine link to autism is still hotly debated, I want to offer a slightly different perspective of the issue based on my experiences as a holistic healthcare practitioner.  For many people the issue is whether or not the mercury in the vaccines causes autism.  I propose that we table that debate in favor of the known fact that mecury causes mercury toxicity. My thinking is that mercury toxicity can produce a wide variety of neurological disturbances which in some cases may be quite similar to the symptoms of autism.

I base this hypothesis on my experience that over the years I have had occasion to treat a few autistic children and found a mercury toxicity in most (actually my recollection is all, but I’m allowing for the possiblity that after 15 years of practice, my memory may not be perfect) of those patients.  In addition, I have observed those patients who were given a mercury de-toxification program had a rapid improvement in their “autism symptoms”.  The recovery in some cases was so rapid that I found it hard to believe that those fast responders actually had autism to begin with.  From this I came to the thought that maybe they simply were exhibiting the neurological signs of mercury poisoning and never really had autism at all.

 It seems to me that there may be two different problems that are being considered as one.  There may be kids who develop true autism (whether from their vaccines or from other causes) and there may be kids who develop mercury toxicity (most likely from thimersol-preserved vaccines).  Since mercury detoxification can typically be done with relative ease and at a pretty low cost, especially with homeopathics, it makes sense to me to evaluate for potential mercury toxicity and begin treatment there if it is present.  For those who do not show up with mercury or other heavy metal toxicity and/or do not respond to detoxification, proceed with more in-depth analyses and search for better answers. 

Anyway,  that’s my “two-cents” on the issue.  Stay tuned to my natural remedies blog for more health and healing information.
