Many of you know that I have long personal experience with autism in my family and my business. Here's my reaction to the press "kerfuffle" about Jenny McCarthy joining The View. Btw, I don't agree with everything Jenny says, but I do think she has been courageous in shining a light on the issue of autism and vaccines.
Despite the fact that the press has decided it’s out of fashion right now to think that vaccines are related to autism:
- My son developed autism not long after his vaccines, and was later confirmed to have mercury toxicity. He got a lot better when we got mercury out of his body.
- As president of a vitamin company for kids with autism, I talked to literally hundreds of other moms who had the same experience.
- There are many (70) scientific studies that do support the link between autism and vaccines, contrary to the consensus in the popular press, which is fad-driven and doesn’t know or care much about science. There is a HUGE investment in the medical status quo to not allowing people to know this.
- There is no healthy amount of mercury to put into a human body.
- Autism is now 1 in 50 children. We are losing our next generation to it.
- The public seems to be asleep to this fact. Some of us wonder, what will it take to wake people up?
- Jenny is not alone, and we (the thousands of moms and dads who have seen the connection between autism and vaccines with our own eyes) have her back.
- The more press attention this issue gets, the more the truth will come out. We say, bring it on!
