Evidence of Harm: Mercury in Vaccines and the Autism Epidemic: A Medical Controversy Hardcover – April 1, 2005

Evidence of Harm is a factual, critical, meticulous and extremely thorough investigation of the machinations, greed, collusion, inhumane acts, corruption, cover ups, hidden agendas, obfuscation of facts, fear mongering, deceit, with holding of information regarding the harmful and toxic undesired effects of vaccinations and the questionable efficacy and safety of vaccinations by the FDA and the CDC.Their pecuniary/vested and conflict of interests in their relationships with BigPharma is puerile, insidious and clearly a matter of putting `Profit Before Patients.' The torture of orthodox allopathic medicine that the FDA and CDC has inflicted upon the world population is reprehensible and unjustified when there are more humane alternative allopathic cancer treatments that provide a pain free, quality and dignity of a normal life throughout the treatment protocol. What if some of the $47 trillion spent on the `War on Cancer' to date had been spent on prevention and the alternative allopathic treatment protocols?It is obvious that their hearts are not in it for the public interest and well being. It is painfully obvious that the FDA and CDC are places filled with egos of titanic proportions. Their primary focus is on their careers, working towards their fame, glory, fortune and recognition. What of the `Revolving Door Syndrome' where officers of the FDA and CDC can resign from the respective agencies one day, go to work for BigPharma the following day and subsequently lobby for the Fast Tracking and Grandfather clause approval of new drugs. And no one bats an eyelid! How insidious is this!What if it was they who were put through the same persecution and purgatory with which they have hunted down Dr Stanislaw Burzynski? What if they were exposed to the same terrifying and horrific process with which they have treated Dr Stanislaw Burzynski's patients and those seeking out his treatment? Regrettably and sadly they have clearly demonstrated that they do not have an empathic, humane and compassionate bone in their respective bodiesThe FDA and CDC are in breach and contravention of the Nuremberg Code, Article 19 `The Right to Know' and the Commission on the Rights of the Child. Given their actions in the matters of Alan Yurko and Gabrielle Swank the FDA and CDC have been complicit in a travesty of Natural and Social Justice and cruelty to humanity and should face the Judicial consequences of their actions.

I am the father of a 5 year old autistic boy, who actually right now would not be diagnosed as autistic. I saying this to convey that there is hope if you know where to look. We were lucky enough to get on the right track pretty quickly after my son was diagnosed. My wife, along with many mothers of autistic kids, is amazing in her search for answers to unravel this mystery. I am extremely confident to say that she knows more about metabolic issues than 99% of doctors. We have known from almost the beginning that thimerasol had some role in triggering my son's autism (maybe it wasn't the only environmental trigger, but it was a major one nevertheless). Now David Kirby has exposed what we have known all along. This book is a MUST read for ALL parents of young children, not just ones that have been affected by this horrific illness. If you take anything from this book, then take this. DO NOT PUT YOUR BLIND TRUST IN THE MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND EDUCATE YOURSELF. The medical establishment can and is wrong on many issues (and is DEAD WRONG on this one) and is slow to accept something that goes against what they've been taught.I actually don't understand how people who don't have a vested interest in this issue cannot at least accept that it is credible that thimerasol could be the environmental trigger that is causing autism in our kids (not in all cases, but in many of the 1 in 166). After all, mercury is a known neuro-toxin and thimerasol is nearly 50% organic ethylmercury (which is even more toxic that methylmercury because of its ability to bind itself at the cellular level). How can anyone think that putting a known neuro-toxin in amounts up to 100 times the levels deemed safe for full grown adults into infants with immature immune systems can be safe? And then repeating this several times in the first two years of a childs life. Also, is it a coincidence that the symptons of autism are the same for mercury poisoning? I would love to see someone from the CDC, FDA or NIH inject themselves with the equivalent amount of thimerasol that were given to our children (based on weight and taking into account the immature immunity systems that our kids had when they were injected immediately after birth). I bet you that even if offered a million dollars, that no one would do it because they know they're wrong (or at the very least aren't sure that they're right), but yet thimerasol is still safe to be in some vaccines that kids get.Whether or not you believe thimerasol is the culprit, it is obvious that the government is trying to cover it up. The government has 2 conflicts of interest when it comes to this issue. One is obviously the money our representatives are getting from big pharma and the other is to protect the vaccine policy of this country. It would be ignorant of us to discount these major conflicts of interests. By the way, many people don't realize this, but this is also a foreign policy issue. We are now exporting many of our vaccines overseas to Third World countries. If you think the rest of the world hates us now, what do you think they will think of us when the truth comes out and they realize that we've exported autism to undeveloped countries. Anyway, I've gotten way too political here, all I can say is buy this book and buy one for your pediatrician and tell your friends that are pregnant or have young children to buy this book. As another poster noted, this book does read like a Grisham novel, but unfortunately it's true.I will end this by quoting an interaction which is in Kirby's book. A well known pediatrician just gave a speech on the safety of vaccines and thimerasol. A father of an autistic child approached him and said "You know something, doctor? If it turns out that you are right, then I will personally come down to your office and apologize to you with every fiber of my being. But if it turns out that you are wrong, then you are going to hell". Well I think this story is going to end with alot of people going to hell and they will deserve it!!!

This Book Tell Facts That Big Pharma Covers Up.

David Kirby does great research and the reader comes away with tons leads on other avenues of related medical research papers, names of good and bad doctors and intelligent detective-like, determined parents. Even if you only want to read one or two books on autism I would say this has to be one of them. Some of the medical terms were above my head, but it did not detract from the overall narrative and side stories discussed in the book.

Thousands of parents of autistic children have literally been waiting for years for SOMEONE to do what David Kirby does in his new book, EVIDENCE OF HARM, namely, objectively present the facts on the link between the increased used of a known mercury-based toxin, THIMEROSAL in vaccines and the epidemic of autism and other neurological disorders in our children.David Kirby lets us share in the experiences of a number of families who watch as their children regress into autism after being vaccinated with mercury. Through their desperate struggles we sense the confusion, denial, and anger over their children's suffering.Mr Kirby is not trying to promote an agenda or create a panic regarding vaccinations. He's not the parent of an autistic child. He compassionately and objectively investigates the evidence resulting from three years of thorough research on the link between autism and vaccines with mercury. He may not offer absolute "proof" of the connection, but the reader is left with no other explanation based on the evidence he's uncovered.

Well written, and informative.

This book delves very deeply into the politics behind the childhood vaccination programme. It is shocking in many places, very detailed and it gives a clear description of how all our children are being used as sacrificial lambs to sate the interests of the Pharmaceutical giants.
