"Evidence of Harm"
Camille wrote a persona note to Dr. Haley, who has some ideas he'd like to promote about autism. She was offended by the reply she received. Here is my note to Camille, with her original note and Dr. Haley's reply following.-dras
Camille asked Dr. Haley for 2 things: quit using the term "Mad child disease" to describe Autism and to stop placing emphasis on mercury in vaccines as a danger to children.
I take Dr. Haley's (or an e-mail reply designate) responses to mean: the issue of mercury endangerment is so serious we should use any term to garner recognition of it; and, mercury is serious just as explained in "...an investigative book just being released called 'Evidence of Harm" by David Kirby.'"
FDA and CDC combined conspiracy, fraudulent studies published, secret e-mails, hidden documents revealed using the Freedom of Information Act, and "why else" arguments. This kind of sensationalism strongly hints of a sales pitch for something like a book...like the one being recommended.
Camille's issue is about children and autism, not mercury-vaccine fanaticism. I am sorry that Camille had this directed at her. If I am right, she doesn't need to read any such book. She's read the studies first-hand, and she understands how the research was done and who and how it was published. She has searched out the history of vaccines as well as the history of the CDC and FDA on that regard. More importantly, she knows about autism; all that has been presented from epidemiological, to in-utero, to autoimmune associations. Beyond knowledge, she has intimate understanding of the autistic child. Based on this knowledge and understanding, and the fact she is educated, she has the right to demand that an apparent vaccine controversy not be carried to exploit children and children with autism to strike an emotional cord, especially for marketing purposes.

Take the time to hear the tape of my talk and you will realize that I was dead serious about this issue. It is parents like yourself who are being deluded by bureaucrats at the FDA and CDC that have made a major mistake and are doing everything to cover it up. You really need to educate yourself on the "statistics" issue and autism and the biological work that strongly supports that thimerosal exposure causes the symptoms of autism. The Freedom of Information Act has supplied Safe Minds with information that early epidemiological studies done by the CDC clearly show that thimerosal was associated with a significant risk of autism and other childhood illnesses. Only by manipulation over several attempts (blatantly discussed in obtained emails between the officials) did a publication result that showed no correlation. Also, do you really think the USA, Britain, Denmark, Sweden, etc. would all decide to make manufacturers remove thimerosal from their vaccines if there wasn't knowledge of a risk? I and others are just not that powerful unless our research is correct and provable. What I have published has been repeated by several other university groups and all concur that autistics represent a subset of the population that do not effectively excrete mercury. What I am fighting is those who are convinced, not because they have read the science, but because they believe in bureaucratic releases (you have the same opinion as the IOM who only considered the well known manipulated CDC study and those from Europe where the reports were done by employees of vaccine manufacturering entities that sell thimerosal containing vaccines to the rest of the world, including the USA). I am taking the time to respond because, as the mother of an afflicted child and someone who is in education, you may have the interest in the truth about this issue. Also, there is an investigative book just being released called "Evidence of Harm" by David Kirby. You should read it.
