Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey Still Believe in Autism-Vaccine Link
In the recent statement released by Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy regarding Andrew Wakefield, the twosome made a number of references that clear up once and for all how they feel about vaccines. Because as we all know they’re not anti-vaccine.
Dr. Andrew Wakefield is being discredited to prevent an historic study from being published that for the first time looks at vaccinated versus unvaccinated primates and compares health outcomes, with potentially devastating consequences for vaccine makers…
Dr. Wakefield and parents of children with autism around the world are being subjected to a remarkable media campaign engineered by vaccine manufacturers…
The retraction from The Lancet was a response to a ruling from England’s General Medical Council, a kangaroo court where public health officials in the pocket of vaccine makers…
The fallout from the study for vaccine makers and public health officials could be severe. Having denied the possibility of the vaccine-autism connection for so long while profiting immensely from a recent boom in vaccine sales around the world, it’s no surprise that they would seek to repress this important work.
No, definitely not anti-vaccine.

It is sad when influential people get it wrong. It takes the focus out of what is important such as what happened last week during Dr. Oz show on autism .
I have created a petition online in the hopes of getting enough signatures to convince Dr. Oz and his producers to do a follow-up show. This time to talk about the ASD community, our fight, our love, our support for one another. To talk about early intervention, therapies and treatments. We need to educate everyone of the real meaning of autism. Together I am confident that we can.

Jenny and Jim are absolutely right to still believe strongly that vaccines and autism are linked. I have researched strongly in the UK since 1996 and have found no evidence of there being any such thing as an unvaccinated autistic person. There should be on the supposed prevalence of one in a hundred (both sexes) be around 30,000 if vaccination is neutral to autism. Between 6% and 10% of all autistic people. My claim that I cannot find them has been put to aggregate audiences of over 2,500 at 20 plus conferences (autistic community attenders) in three countries without finding one. Dozens of letters to national and regional papers, hundreds of letters to medics, parents, researchers, health professionals, still none! That is because they are not there and vaccines are patently not neutral to autism. The Geiers, Dan Olmsted followed up my claims at the Nov 2002 NVIC conference when I said that, albeit small, non vaccinators should be researched. The Geiers looked at VAERS and were stopped when they found an association between vaccines and autism, Dan Olmsted was rubbished by critics who said he didn't know enough about the Amish but he knew enough to know that they by and large don't vaccinate and by and large don't have any autistic kids ! Mayer Eisenstein was rubbished because sadly a kid perished at his clinics and some didn't do as well as they should have. That is sad but they don't get it do they, no autistic history amongst about 35,000 kids in the Homefirst experience. So all in all after 14 years I think there aren't any unvaccinated autistic people in Britain and I don't think they can be found elsewhere either. To say things like 'Jenny sinks to a new low' is just pathetic and shows that these people are not nice people and many of us are delighted that our connection with them is limited to a bit of plastic otherwise we would move house !

Quite simply, an effective story can take over our brains to the point where we disregard more valid information: reliable statistics, the opinions of true experts, and so on. In the Invisible Gorilla,...this is the conclusion comes from the above topics and I suggest you also to observe it…….

Autism was first described in the 1940s and was defined as a spectrum disorder in 1991 when the Autism Diagnostic Interview (ADI) was first published. Up until this point, mild cases of autism were generally not diagnosed as autism. In the ten years after the publication of the ADI, diagnoses of autism increased by more than 800%.
Most of the groups that suggest a link between vaccinations and autism usually are also trying to sell some wonder cure, or are heavily invested in selling a lifestyle or religion of one sort or another. Their opinions and advice are concocted to promote a cause, and have not come out of legitimate scientific study.
Taking medical advice from people who have no credentials in science or medicine does not seem like a wise course of action.
This wouldn't be the first time health professionals have been wrong ! It wouldn't be the first time they covered up vital info. (Remember the tobacco industry.) Follow the money . Pharmaceuticals stand to lose a fortune, if parents stop or limit the vaccination of their children .
In 1976, children received 10 vaccines before school age, today children get 36 vaccines (32 by the age of 2). Autism and other brain-related problems have increased with our vaccination increase. We need to re-valuate what we are doing.

Unfortunately for Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey they have invested to much of their popularity in the pro-disease movement...
As among the most public faces of the pro-disease movement they would loose all of it if they acknowledged that they were wrong , and would gain little fame by joining with the Science Based Medicine crowd (which is led by researchers and doctors , not celebrities ).
That is the wonderful thing about America, you can believe what you want, wrong though it may be. While they may be good actors, no one is going to accuse them of Rhodes Scholars. But, hey, it is not like they don't have kindred souls in the climate change believers.
