The Silence of the Media Lambs!

Autism and Child Protection
Why are the media in Britain ignoring the biggest public health scandal of the
Century? Is it governmental suppression?
There is a pandemic of autism among children in the western world and it is
spreading worldwide. Thousands upon thousands of children are being diagnosed as
autistic every day in the U.S.A., the U.K., and increasingly in Australia. A few
decades ago the incidence of autism affected only one child in a thousand but
now it is more than one child in a hundred.
Autism has massive long term medical, social, educational, and financial effects
on families and every day is a exhausting struggle for the families of autistic
children as they try to cope with emotional and behavioral disorders of these
autistic children. Many are devastated and collapse completely while others
struggle on with increasing ill-health among parents and the damaging effects on
any other children in the family as their needs have to come secondary to the
needs and demands of the autistic child. And there is little or no help from
statutory authorities for the autistic child or the family. They are largely
left to cope alone or with minimal input from governmental departments and
health services. Many parents tell of applying for help from statutory agencies
but which require an assessment of the child’s needs and the families support
requirements, only to be met by words such as, “Well I can do an assessment but
we have no resources to help you!” from the social work, educational. and health
professionals conducting the assessment.
For some children and their families the horrors have been increased multi-fold
by child protection workers accusing parents of causing the child harm (largely
because many child protection workers do not have knowledge or understanding
autism and its tapestry of symptoms and behaviours) and by doctors accusing
parents of `causing’ the autism using a discredited junk theory titled
Fabricated and Induced Illness in Children, previously know as Munchausen
Syndrome By Proxy.
But the first most important question to be asked is, “Why has this pandemic
occurred over the last four decades?” and the answer is simple yet infinitely
complex. It has been caused by vaccinations of various kinds, but principally
the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella vaccine. [MMR].
This has been known to the pharmaceutical industry, the Western governments, and
to the health and medical professions for decades but they have mounted one of
the most slick and collusive denials and distractive tactics ever known. Winston
Churchill the British Prime Minister mounted one of the biggest deception
campaigns ever know when he sought to deceive the German military regarding the
intended place of the D-Day landings in France but even he would have paid
homage to the campaign of deception and misinformation mounted by governments
and health services to cover up this immense human tragedy of autism. The most
recent tactic has been to engage medical professionals and journalists with
questionable credentials and reputations to pursue a process of misinformation
for media consumption and to produce `Junk’ science reports that vaccines are
safe and have no links to autism..
Initially the British and US, governments sought to deny the existence of autism
as a neurological disorder and pretended it was merely a form of `mental
handicap’ or `retardation’. Of course this did not work for long, so the next
step was to accept its existence but claim that it was being wrongly or overly
diagnosed. So many autistic children went undiagnosed and they and their
families were deprived of any help or support which may have been available.
This approach also began to fail as families increasingly pointed to the fact
that their child’s autism had been caused by vaccines. The testamentary evidence
of parents regarding the changes in their child’s demeanour and behaviour after
receiving a vaccine is immense and worldwide. Typical evidence from a parent
would usually read as follows:
“Within days or hours of receiving the vaccine, the child developed a fever of 102.3 degrees and was lethargic, irritable, and cried for long periods of time. She exhibited intermittent, high-pitched screaming and a decreased response to stimuli. This behaviour continued over the next ten days, and the child also began to arch her back when she cried. The paediatrician, told the mother that the child was having a normal reaction to her immunizations. A few days later the child was taken to hospital with a 101-102 degree temperature, a diminished appetite, and small red dots on her chest. The nurse practitioner recorded that child was extremely irritable and inconsolable. She was diagnosed with a post-varicella vaccination rash. Thereafter the child lapsed into her own world, oblivious to any stimulation around her and unaware of anyone else.”
The tactics of the government and medical professionals are now to persecute any
professional who dares to challenge the propaganda of the health departments and
three doctors who raised questions regarding the administration of vaccines and
possible inks to autism are currently facing professional misconduct charges at
the General Medical Council in London. Other professionals such as the
Consultant Psychologist Lisa Blakemore-Brown an internationally-known expert in
autistic disorders, has also faced similar charges from her professional
association after being outspoken about the links between vaccines and autism.
The evidence that vaccines cause autism is now clear, and convincing and
irrefutable. And possibly that there are links to other illnesses such as
asthma, allergies, diabetes, Crohn’s Disease and probably a range of other
illnesses which are on the increase, It has been admitted in Court Proceedings
in America by government medical experts and the cat is finally out of the bag.
(See below).
The final question is, why has the cover-up gone on so long?. Simple, there are
vast amounts of money involved for the pharmaceutical industry, governments have
been led to believe (erroneously) that there is a need for `herd’ immunity
against these diseases yet the latest evidence shows that it is the children who
have been vaccinated who are most often contracting these diseases and children
who have normally developed immune systems and a nutritious diet can effectively
resist these diseases without the aid of vaccines. The medical profession have
also had a bonanza in the monies they have received for administering vaccines
and for research projects and consultancies. Some medical professionals are
shareholders in drug companies or receive gifts of extended holidays at
conference venues.
So why are the media so silent?
