Autism Related to Vaccination Containing Mercury

(Artism of Autism by Aspect & The Jammy Gallery)

What is Autism? Autism is an extremely mysterious disease that has pitted doctor vs. doctor, parent vs. doctor, and parent vs. parent. Because there is no defined cause as of right now, everyone seems to have their own opinion of what the causes and treatments are. Interestingly, what continues this battle is the fact that some children respond shockingly well to certain treatments, while others do not, causing this war to continue to wage. Autism is known to have different effects on different children. Some of these are: difficulty with eye contact, some are easily over-stimulated in even somewhat calm situations. They are unable to handle loud noises or interruptions. They often have difficulty reading signals and cues and having proper reactions to everyday occurrences, although some may say that children with autism is beyond genius, most children with autism have the most trouble with communication, in extreme cases not being able to communicate at all which is often makes the main problem.

One of the most harmful thing we do to children could be giving them immunization containing mercury, while trying to actually do the best for them. Of course, that heavy metal could be found on non-sterile syringe. Needless to say that only very small amounts of mercury is needed to alter children body and mind conditions because anything that goes straight to blood stream is far more reactive than from intestinal tract (oral/from mouth). For a parent who has a child living with autism, they are familiar with the possible link that has been well publicized between mercury, which has always been included in many childhood vaccinations, and autism.

Many parents agree with the link between mercury and autism, due to vaccinations with mercury. Some parents say that their children behaved perfectly normally up until the point when they were vaccinated with vaccines that included mercury. As the amount and potency of vaccines has increased over the years, so has the incidences of autism- in the past 10 years, the cases of autism have increased by ten times. One study of lab mice showed that when levels of mercury were introduced to mice in levels similar to what was given to children, the lab mice experienced extreme changes in their brain, including repetitive behaviors, almost immediately withdrawing themselves from their surroundings, and being resistant to any kind of change. These are characteristics of autism, leading many parents to believe this may be a valid link between mercury and autism.

Many medical professionals though, disagree. Although the study with the mice sounds compelling, there have been hundreds of studies done, many which do not show a link. The five largest studies ever done went five for five in showing that there was no link between mercury and autism, and the results were inconclusive.

In conclusion, many believe we should simply err on the conservative side. This is why most pharmaceutical companies are developing vaccines without mercury. Possibly, only a handful of children retain the mercury in their bodies while regularly functioning children eliminate it, which would explain why some autistic children have 20 and 25 times the recommended "safe" levels of mercury in their bodies in testing while some children have none. These discrepancies are at the heart of the autism debate, and all we can do is wait and pray that medical researchers will soon find a resolution to whether vaccinations with Mercury play a role in autism.
