Vaccines, Mercury & Autism: CDC & Danish Researchers Involved in Fraudulent Cover-Up
The time when everyone dumped on Andrew Wakefield, but looked the other way while pro-vaccine researchers & officials engaged in blatant shitefookery.
According to Dr Brian Hooker, “This paper has two severe methodological flaws. First, the Denmark NCRR database changed diagnostic criteria for autism diagnoses in 1994 from ICD8 to ICD10. This led to a greater number of autism diagnoses overall.”
“Second, the Denmark NCRR database changed the accounting of autism based on outpatient visits in 1995, whereas up to 1995, only inpatient (i.e., Hospital) visits were accounted. This led to a significant increase in autism cases counted beyond 1994.”
“These two data artifacts … show a misleading jump in the prevalence of autism after 1995. However, when these are corrected for, the actual autism rates in Denmark decreased by as much as 4 times upon the phase out of thimerosal-containing vaccines (Trelka et al. 2004).”
“Although the raw data from the Madsen et al. 2003 publication has been requested, the authors chose not to release it, creating significant difficulty in confirming this decrease.”
What are you hiding, Kreesten?
Despite this, the CDC endorsed the article and, in a December 10, 2002 recommendation letter to the editor of Pediatrics, encouraged expedited review and publication of the article.
How Madsen et al Hid the Inconvenient Truth
We know that in 1992, thimerosal was removed from childhood vaccines in Denmark.
We also know that in 1994 Denmark adopted the ICD-10 criteria for diagnosing autism (“ICD”, by the way, stands for the WHO’s International Classification of Diseases, which are periodically updated).
Denmark previously used ICD-8, and never adopted ICD-9.
This is critical because there was no actual mention of “autism” in ICD-8. Instead, the category of “299 Unspecified psychosis“ was used.
It wasn’t until ICD-9 that “299 Infantile autism” was added.
ICD-10 expanded the criteria and added further diagnoses like “Asperger syndrome”, “childhood autism”, “atypical autism” etc.
This meant far more children were eligible to be diagnosed with autism and related disorders.
Which, of course, would have served to mask a decline in actual autism rates. (See link for article)

**Comment**
Must read article.
‘The powers that be’ simply can not admit a link between vaccines and autism despite evidence to the contrary and the opinion of a top government vaccine expert.
Numerous studies have shown a significant link between heavy metals like mercury and autism.
These powers will mislead, destroy evidence, ignore and manipulate their own data, lie, destroy dissenting researchers and doctors, recommend 72 doses of vaccines to children without any safety studies to examine health effects, and accept money from Big Pharma to fast track vaccines.
