Study Shows Decline in Neurodevelopmental Disorders

After Removal of Thimerosal-Containing Vaccines

 

A new study published today (3/1/06) shows that the rate of neurodevelopmental

disorders (NDs) in children has decreased following removal of thimerosal, a

preservative containing the neurotoxin mercury, from American childhood

vaccines. The study, published in the Journal of American Physicians and

Surgeons, a peer reviewed journal, by Dr. Mark Geier and David Geier examined

two independent databases maintained by the government - one national and one

state. The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) database maintained

by the Centers for Disease Control and the Californian Department of

Developmental Services (CDDS) database each showed the same downward trend for

the period from 2002 through 2005. According to the study " [t]he results

indicate that the trends in newly diagnosed NDs correspond directly with the

expansion and subsequent contraction of the cumulative mercury dose to which

children were exposed from [thimerosal-containing vaccines] through the U.S.

immunization schedule. "

 

The study examined the trend for cases of autism during the period beginning

1994 and ending 2002 compared with the period from 2002 to June, 2005. The

trends for increases and decreases of cases of autism found in the VAERS

national database were consistent with the trends found in the CDDC California

database. Most significantly, in each database the increasing and decreasing

trends correlate with the time that the exposure to thimerosal through the

immunization schedule was increased and then decreased after removal of mercury

containing vaccines. " The consistency of the effects observed for the spectrum

of NDs, including autism and speech disorders, and the agreement between the

observations from two separate databases, support the conclusion that the effect

is real and not a chance observation. " The study found that the magnitude of the

change in the decreasing trend of cases was significant after removal of mercury

from vaccines. Data from the U.S. Department of Education, a third database,

showed a recent decrease of autism diagnoses that is consistent with the

findings in the two databases.

 

The authors show that the biological plausibility of their statistical findings

is supported by recent toxicological and molecular studies that reveal the

mechanism by which mercury from vaccines can cause damage to the developing

brains of children. A recent study by researchers at the University of

Washington has shown that ethylmercury from thimerosal in vaccines can cross

from the bloodstream into the brain in toxic amounts which can remain in brain

tissue for many years. This finding contradicted the untested view about the

toxicity of ethylmercury in vaccines that prevailed in public health for 75

years. Other researchers have shown that minute concentrations of mercury, far

lower than previously believed and far less than other toxins such as lead, can

destroy neurons and damage DNA within hours of exposure. Such low levels of

mercury, which likely are reached in infant brains via vaccine thimerosal

exposure, can disrupt cell signaling and metabolic pathways necessary for normal

brain development. Studies in mice, rabbits, monkeys, rats and other animals

support these findings. Further studies in children have found evidence of

mercury toxicity, metabolic disruption and oxidative stress that is consistent

with the author's statistical findings that thimerosal in vaccines causes autism

and developmental disorders.

 

The authors point out that their finding that the VAERS and CDDS databases show

strong associations between thimerosal containing vaccines and

neurodevelopmental disorders completely contradicts the 2004 findings contained

in a report published by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of

Sciences - which was based on data controlled exclusively by the Center for

Disease Control's National Immunization Program and unavailable to outside

researchers. In arguing that their study's findings justify additional research

the authors point out that the handling of vaccine safety data by the Centers

for Disease Control has been called into serious question in a 2005 report

published by the Institute of Medicine.
