next, autism: what we know and what we don't know. Dr. Harvey Fineberg of the Institute of Medicine and David Kirby, author
of "Evidence of Harm: Mercury in Vaccines and the Autism Epidemic: A Medical Controversy," next, right here on MEET THE PRESS. (Announcements) MR.
RUSSERT: The controversy over childhood vaccines and autism, after this brief station break. (Announcements) MR.
RUSSERT: And we are back. Dr.
Fineberg, Mr. Kirby, welcome both. In
your book, Mr. Kirby, you raise early on two questions. "Why did the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allow mercury exposures from childhood vaccines to more than double between 1988 and
1992 without bothering to calculate cumulative totals and their potential risks?" And "Why ... was there a corresponding spike
in reported cases of autism spectrum disorders? Why did autism grow from a relatively rare incidence of 1 in every 10,000
births in the 1980s to 1 in 500 in the late 1990s? Why did it continue to increase 1 in 250 in 2000 and then 1 in 166 today?"
Have you answered those questions? MR.
DAVID KIRBY: No, nobody's answered those questions. And we have to answer those questions as soon as possible. We need to
solve this mystery. We need to get this controversy behind us so we can go on to find ways to help these kids. Mercury is
toxic. It's a known neurotoxin. If it gets into the brain, it could stay there virtually forever. Children born in the '90s
received mercury far in excess of federal safety limits. That's indisputable. And yet we're looking at a neurotoxin. And yet
most of the evidence developed by the public health sector has been looking at the epidemiology. And we really need to look
at what this mercury is doing inside the bodies and brains of these children if we're going to solve this mystery one way
or the other. MR.
RUSSERT: Dr. Fineberg, in your 2004 report from the Institute of Medicine, you said this: "While some information suggests
that autism rates may be rising, it is not clear whether the observed increase is real or due to factors such as heightened
awareness of the disorder or the use of a broader diagnostic definition. ..." Do
you think there's an epidemic of autism or do you think it's simply a change in defining it? DR.
HARVEY FINEBERG: There's definitely a huge number of cases diagnosed with autism, Tim. What is clear is that number recognized
has increased dramatically. It's also clear that the definition was broadened markedly in the 1980s and 1990s, and there were
increased incentives to recognize children from increased awareness and availability of services. No one knows with certainty
what part of the increase is genuine, a genuine increase in numbers, and what part is from increased recognition of people
who were already there but not previously recognized. Remember we're talking about a spectrum of diagnoses here, autism spectrum
diseases, which range in severity from relatively mild to relatively severe. MR.
RUSSERT: For a layman, in a few words, how would you explain autism? DR.
FINEBERG: Autism is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder that is characterized by social withdrawal, by repetitive behaviors
and by some kind of focal attention in its classic form. Basically, it's an inability to relate to others. MR.
RUSSERT: Let me go back and review two of the studies that the Institute of Medicine did because this has helped feed much
of this controversy and discussion. Back in 2001, the headline on your press release was "Link Between Neurodevelopmental
Disorders And Thimerosal Remains Unclear. Current scientific evidence neither proves nor disproves a link between the mercury-containing
preservative thimerosal and neurodevelopmental disorders in children, says a new report from the Institute of Medicine...
While very few vaccines given to children in the United States today still contain thimerosal, prudence dictates that precautionary
measures be taken to decrease thimerosal exposure even further. ... It is medically plausible that some children's risk of
a neurodevelopmental disorder could rise in part through increased mercury exposure from thimerosal-containing vaccines." Thimerosal
being a preservative that is put into the vaccine. Then about three years later in May of 2004, the Institute of Medicine
issued this headline: "MMR Vaccine And Thimerosal-Containing Vaccines Are Not Associated With Autism, IOM Report Says. Based
on a thorough review of clinical and epidemiological studies"--I'll always destroy that word--"neither the mercury-based vaccine
preservative thimerosal nor the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine are associated with autism, says a new report from the
Institute of Medicine..." What
changed in those three years? DR.
FINEBERG: When you're dealing with a problem as complex as autism, Tim, you have to look at it from many different points
of view and assemble evidence from many different vantage points. Biological evidence in humans and in animals, toxicologic
evidence, how does the body deal with toxins, and evidence looking at the actual experience in populations. When the 2001
report was written, there was a lot of suggestive information about the toxic properties of mercury and the problem of autism
incompletely understood. By 2004, the main change was that there were completed additional studies that were actually looking
in the population at the relationship of receipt of vaccines containing thimerosal and the development of autism. These
studies were carried out in the United States, in Great Britain, in Denmark and Sweden. These studies covered hundreds of
thousands of individuals, children, in these populations. They compared systematically in different ways whether you received
vaccine with no thimerosal, with some thimerosal, with more thimerosal, and they looked at the relationship of those experiences
with the development of autism. Uniformly, the best of those studies all show no association between receiving vaccine of
different amounts with thimerosal or without and the development of autism. It was the absence of that association which was
the main reason for reaching the conclusion that the evidence points to no association between vaccines and autism. MR.
RUSSERT: Mr. Kirby? MR.
KIRBY: Well, I think those five epidemiological studies range from severely flawed to seriously questionable. And I also think
that you cannot rely solely on epidemiology to prove or disprove causation. In fact, I have right here--this is from the federal
court system, but they ruled that epidemiology is not acceptable to prove there is no causal link between an adverse event
and a pharmaceutical. MR.
RUSSERT: Explain that in layman's language. MR.
KIRBY: Well, it means that you really, like the doctor said, need to look at the kids as well as look at the large population
studies. You need to look at the biology, the toxicology; you need to look at the cellular level. You need to look at immunology,
and I would say that what the IOM did last year--I was at that meeting on February 9. Virtually half of the evidence against
the theory, that was presented against the theory was epidemiological--I have the same problem as you. The other half supporting
the theory was largely biological. And yet the committee gave a preponderance of evidence or emphasis to the epidemiological
evidence and rather, I would say, gave short shrift to the biological evidence. Dr.
Fineberg has mentioned that there are 215 references in the report. I counted them up. By my count, it's roughly a 2:1 ratio,
about 115 references for epidemiology, 60 references for biology, and of those, only seven were toxicological reports. Now,
we're talking about a known neurotoxin, and there were no toxicologists on the committee, either. So I think even Dr. McCormick,
the chairwoman of the committee, told me that there was definitely an emphasis on the epidemiology over the biological evidence. MR.
RUSSERT: When we announced this program, as you might expect, we heard from both sides who are very emotional and passionate
about this. The National Autism Association, Dr. Fineberg, wrote a letter to us including this: "The five studies the Institute
of Medicine based its conclusion upon are fatally flawed, have never been replicated and have ties to the CDC"--Center for
Disease Control-- "(or foreign equivalent mandating vaccines in other countries) and/or the pharmaceutical industry. However,
the Institute of Medicine chose to completely ignore the biological and clinical data supporting the link between thimerosal
exposure and injuries to children conducted by independent appropriately- credentialed researchers." DR.
FINEBERG: Tim, the Institute of Medicine panel that came together represented a spectrum of experts who were asked to look
at all of the evidence, and they did. They assessed the evidence that bears on the question. Some of it is biological, as
I mentioned; some of it has to depend on what you actually find when you go out and look in the population. Is there or is
there not an association? Keep in mind that there are many neurotoxins in the world. Dozens of natural and industrial substances
have neurotoxic properties. When you're trying to assess a specific association, there are biological studies that are relevant,
and there are epidemiological studies that are relevant. All of these studies are not equally valid. Some have more deficiencies
and limitations than others. The
committee went through very carefully and assessed each of those studies representing its strengths and weaknesses. All of
this is laid out in its report, which is available for download to anyone who wants it from the IOM Web site, www.iom.edu.
And anyone can read for themselves how the committee evaluated critically and carefully all of this evidence. When
the letter you read states that these five studies were not replicated, I can't help but think that each one of them has been
replicated four times. We have now a growing body of evidence, while imperfect, altogether convincing and all reaching the
same conclusion, even though they vary in their methods and in their approaches. And that conclusion was no association between
the receipt of vaccines containing thimerosal and the development of autism. MR.
RUSSERT: Why was thimerosal then taken out of the vaccination? DR.
FINEBERG: There's no question that mercury is a neurotoxin. And if there were ways, which there are, to protect vaccines without
using mercury-containing substances, it was prudent to remove it, not because there was evidence that it caused autism or
even definitive evidence that the amounts in those vaccines caused any neuro problems, but because it was an added measure
of precaution that was sensible and correct. And I might add that the latest vaccines that contained any thimerosal as a preservative,
with the exception of some flu vaccines, were completed in 2001 and outdated in 2003. So anyone watching this program, any
parent can be confident that when they take their child to the pediatrician to be immunized this year, they will receive vaccines
without thimerosal as a preservative. MR.
RUSSERT: But prior to this year, there may be some concern? DR.
FINEBERG: Prior to 2003, there were some that still had thimerosal, but the concern is not reaching the level of evidence
related to the development of autism. The concern is a more general concern about mercury as a potential neurotoxin. MR.
RUSSERT: Mr. Kirby? MR.
KIRBY: Well, if I could get back to the IOM report, that meeting was held 14--or the report was actually issued 14 months
ago. This story is moving very, very fast. In those last 14 months, there has been an equally growing body of evidence, again
on the biological side, that would suggest that, in a small subset of children with a certain genetic predisposition, they
are unable to properly process the mercury that they were exposed to. And, by the way, the rates of exposure were quite high
in the 1990s. At two months of age, children got three shots for a total of 62.5 micrograms of mercury. For their body weight,
that's 125 times over the EPA level. For me to reach that level, that would be about 1,125 micrograms. We
know that certain children with autism, again, seem to have higher levels of mercury accumulating in their body. We know that
when we give mercury to infant primates, the--there's two types of organic mercury: ethylmercury in vaccines, methylmercury
in fish. What they found was that the ethylmercury, once it got into the brain, it converted to inorganic mercury very, very
quickly. Inorganic mercury basically gets trapped in the brain, and there's evidence to suggest that, in an infant brain,
in the first six months to a year when the brain is still growing, when inorganic mercury gets trapped in that brain, you're
going to have this hyper neuroinflammation, or the rapid brain growth that we see in autistic children. These
are the types of things that I think need to be researched further. Yes, we need to look at the epidemiology. There's a whole
lot of new biology. This has all been published. None of the biology was published at the time of the IOM hearing. It has
since been published, and I actually wonder if the IOM would consider reconvening a new committee or a new hearing to consider
the evidence that's come out in the year and a half since the last report. MR.
RUSSERT: Would you? DR.
FINEBERG: Tim, Mr. Kirby's description about the certitude of this evidence, I think, exceeds the actual balance of evidence
that is produced when you look at the totality. It's true that mercury is handled differently in the body when it's in the
form of so-called ethylmercury, which is in vaccines, and methylmercury, which was actually the form which was--on which the
standards of exposure were based. That's the type found in fish, as has been mentioned. But when you look back at the studies
of actual poisonings of children with large amounts of methylmercury and ethylmercury, most toxicologists believe that the
ethyl form of the mercury is less toxic than the methyl form--less toxic to the nervous system. And that's based on many experiences
with poisoning by these different forms of mercury. MR.
RUSSERT: Many parents have written us over the last couple of days saying that they have put their child in the process of
chelation, which removes the mercury poisoning from the system, and they say they've seen vast improvement. Wouldn't that
suggest that there may be some relationship between the mercury from thimerosal and the removal from the child? DR.
FINEBERG: Tim, autism is a complicated illness, and children with a variety of treatments and non-treatments show improvement
over time, which is all to the good. But when you have a single story and a repeated story of an experience that a parent
has with a treatment like chelation, you have to keep in mind that the history of medicine is strewn with discarded treatments
that people at one time believed in very, very strongly. When you have one case after another, it's one anecdote after another,
and the plural of anecdote in scientific terms is not evidence. The only way to know whether a treatment works or does not
work compared to other things is to do the clinical trial, comparing those who are given the treatment in a systematic and
balanced way with those who are not. MR.
RUSSERT: Mr. Kirby, in your book, you talk about a conference on June 7 to 8 in 2000 in Simpsonwood, Georgia. We've gotten
many e-mails and letters about a government conspiracy, that the CDC and the FDA and the Institute of Medicine and everyone
has gotten together and really tried to deny information to the parents of children with autism. Do you believe that? MR.
KIRBY: Well, I think the word "conspiracy" and "cover-up," those are very loaded words and I never use them. I do think there
has been a lack of transparency and I would think Dr. Fineberg would probably agree with that statement. In this entire process... MR.
RUSSERT: Do you agree with that? DR.
FINEBERG: I don't agree that the lack of transparency has, had had any bearing on conclusions, and I'm not sure what we mean
by a lack of transparency. MR.
RUSSERT: Right now many parents are seeking information from studies from the CDC through the Freedom of Information Act,
and they're being told that the HMOs now have that information and they cannot share it because of privacy. And the parents
are saying that's outrageous. It could easily be obtained by the CDC and disburse that science, that data so people can look
at it and make their own judgments. Should the CDC at least do that? DR.
FINEBERG: In fact, Tim, the Institute of Medicine looked separately in a different study at this system that was in place
and did urge the CDC to make these records more available to qualified researchers. But that is not the same as a lack of
transparency in the studies or in the reports. All anyone has to do in the case of the Institute of Medicine report is to
read the report. All of the logic is laid out, all of the weighing of considerations. Not everyone may agree with each assessment,
but they have all the relevant evidence right before them. MR.
RUSSERT: Mr. Kirby, you have said, "I am totally willing to accept there are other factors at play. It may turn out not to
be thimerosal at all." What do you think should be done? MR.
KIRBY: Well, I think, first of all, we need clinical trials for treatments. We need to try to help these children as best
we can. There is a clinical trial of chelation therapy under way right now at the University of Arizona [editor's note: should
be Arizona State University]. Dr. Fineberg said we need these trials. I wish the government was funding them. We need to listen
to these parents as well. And I think that they've gotten a lot of dismissal from the scientific community. Parents were telling
scientists that their children were born normally and then regressed. A lot of people dismissed that and said that couldn't
be the case. We now know from a brand- new study from the University of Washington using videotapes of one-year birthday and
two-year birthday that is indeed the case. If the parents were right about regression, maybe they're right about chelation. Just
getting back to transparency for one second if I could and this whole safety data base that we're trying to get access to
from the report that Dr. Fineberg cited, it says right here, "The lack of transparency of some of the processes also affects
the trust relationship between the NIP, the National Immunization Program, and the general public." The lack of trust and
the lack of transparency is what's threatening the vaccine program, not talk about mercury. So the doctor's own committee
said that there was a lack of transparency again inside this process of analyzing this data that was presented at that conference
in Georgia. MR.
RUSSERT: Many of the National Autism Association and other groups, Doctor, point to Task Order 74. This is the arrangement
between the CDC and the Institute of Medicine, a one-page memo which helps define the study and why it won't be released.
Is there a reason? DR.
FINEBERG: I don't know what exactly that's referring to, Tim, but when the Centers for Disease Control contracts with the
Institute of Medicine to undertake a study, they do pay the actual costs of the study. But keep in mind that the panel of
experts that are assembled by the Institute of Medicine receive no compensation whatsoever for their volunteer service. And
when a government agency conveys money to the Institute of Medicine, it's not the agency's money. It's the American people's
money. And our obligation is to do the best we can to assess the evidence on behalf of the American public. MR.
RUSSERT: Since thimerosal is now out of the vaccine, latest as of '03, we will know in a few years whether or not there is
a connection... MR.
KIRBY: Yes. That's correct. MR.
RUSSERT: ...definitively by the number of cases? MR.
KIRBY: I think so, but again we need to look at the biology, but the epidemiology is very important. If the case rates start
to drop in the next couple years, I think that will be hugely significant. If I could also just get back to this commission
by the CDC of the report, I'd like to do that as well. MR.
RUSSERT: Real fast. MR.
KIRBY: Well, there's evidence that there was pressure put on the committee by the CDC, and we have internal transcripts. I
think that's what you were referring to. There are transcripts of private meetings. Some of them were leaked. They're not
obtainable through the Freedom of Information Act. Many people are trying to get copies of the other transcripts, and I do
hope that the IOM will make those available in the name of transparency in this. MR.
RUSSERT: Was there pressure? DR. FINEBERG: Absolutely not, Tim. In fact, the
whole reason why the Institute of Medicine, the National Academy of Sciences, the National Research Council exists is to be
an independent voice outside of government to work on behalf of the needs of the American people. That's what we do. Agencies
do not always hear from us what they want to hear. Sometimes the evidence does not point in a direction that is welcome. Stem
cell guidelines or information about climate change or, for example, the ways to fix the Hubble Telescope which came out of
the national academies--all of these are studies undertaken on behalf of the American public and the same was true for our
assessment of vaccine safety. MR.
RUSSERT: You're absolutely convinced there's no connection between thimerosal and autism? DR.
FINEBERG: I'm convinced that the best evidence all points to the lack of an association. These studies can never prove to
the point of absolute certainty an absence of an association. But I would say this, other avenues of research looking at other
possible causes today are much more promising ways to spend our precious resources. MR.
RUSSERT: And our viewers should know that there is no thimerosal now in vaccinations, other than flu vaccinations, and so
it's safe for your children to do --(Unintelligble). DR.
FINEBERG: And even some flu vaccines for children are now available without thimerosal, as well. MR.
RUSSERT: You believe there is a possibility of a connection? MR.
KIRBY: Absolutely. And I think one day we'll find out that there might have been--this has contributed to some of the cases
in autism in this country. MR.
RUSSERT: Thank you for a very civil discussion. Source:

Autism: a Novel Form of Mercury Poisoning S. Bernard, B.A., A. Enayati, M.S.M.E., L. Redwood, M.S.N., H. Roger,
B.A., T. Binstock, Sallie Bernard, ARC Research, 14 Commerce Drive, Cranford, NJ 07901 USA, 908.276.6300, fax 908.276.1301 Summary Autism is a syndrome characterized by impairments in social relatedness
and communication, repetitive behaviors, abnormal movements, and sensory dysfunction. Recent epidemiological studies suggest
that autism may affect 1 in 150 U. S. children. Exposure to mercury can cause immune, sensory, neurological, motor,
and behavioral dysfunctions similar to traits defining or associated with autism, and the similarities extend to neuroanatomy,
neurotransmitters, and biochemistry. Thimerosal, a preservative added to many vaccines, has become a major
source of mercury in children who, within their first two years, may have received a quantity of mercury that exceeds safety
guidelines. A review of medical literature and U.S. government data suggests
that (ii) this type of autism represents an unrecognized mercurial syndrome;
and (iii) genetic and non-genetic factors establish a predisposition
whereby thimerosal's adverse effects occur only in some children. For balance of article, please go to: http://www.mercola.com/2000/oct/1/autism_mercury.htm ********************************** Flu Shots Better Health Update #61 - Monte Kline, Ph.D.
Every Fall a familiar drum beat fills the media - "Get your flu shots!"
But are flu shots a good idea or just another health risk? Do they work, or do they just set you up for other healthy problems?
Let's take a look at the efficacy and safety questions. WHAT IS FLU? Flu, of course, is short for influenza, a highly contagious respiratory
disease caused by a virus (I emphasize "virus" because millions of people are given antibiotics for flu, although antibiotics
have no effect on viruses). Typical symptoms may be like a cold, only more severe, including fever, headaches, body aches,
sore throat, sneezing, cough, and overall weakness. Flu is not a "set" disease-it's not a matter of just one particular
virus that causes it. Many constantly mutating viruses cause flu-different ones every year. Since it takes up to two years
to get flu vaccine ready, it's strictly a guessing game as to which flu viruses will be the main problem in a given season.
The odds are probably better in Las Vegas! For this reason alone, flu shots cannot be very effective. BUT DO THEY WORK? Many studies cast considerable doubt on the efficacy of flu shots.
For example, a Dutch article about a home for the elderly noted that in spite of 2/3 of the residents getting flu shots, 49%
developed severe flu and 10% of them died. Among those who were vaccinated 50% got the flu, versus 48% on the non-vaccinated.
There was essentially no difference in flu incidence in the vaccinated or unvaccinated population! Though the lack of demonstrated efficacy of flu shots is enough reason
for many people to refuse vaccination, adverse reactions are a much more serious concern. The likely conclusion that flu shots
don't help is one thing - that they may do serious harm to your health is another. FLU SHOT HAZARDS Before getting into specific problems, understand that the overall
problem with flu shots, or any other vaccination, is that you're introducing a toxin into the body. The theory is that will
whip your immune system into action to produce the appropriate antibodies and generate an acquired immunity. But if your body
in general and your immune system in particular are weak, it may overwhelm your bodies ability to fight and set you up for
health problems. This very thing happens often. Possibilities include: 1. Allergic Reactions - Flu vaccine is made from chicken embryos.
People who are allergic to chicken or eggs can become seriously ill from having a flu shot (I wonder if any health practitioner
ever asked you about chicken or egg allergy before giving you a flu shot?). On the other hand, injection of these proteins
into your body may produce an allergic sensitivity to chicken or eggs. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with influenza
virus vaccine. It is also not known whether influenza virus vaccine can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman
. . . The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices states that, if used during pregnancy, administration of influenza
virus after 14 weeks of gestation may be preferable to avoid coincidental association of the vaccine with early pregnancy
loss . . . 5. Alzheimer's - According to Hugh Fudenberg, M.D., the world's leading
immunogeneticist with nearly 850 papers published in peer review journals, if you had five consecutive flu shots between 1970
and 1980 (the years in his study), your chances of getting Alzheimer's Disease were 10 times higher than if you had one, two,
or no flu shots. According to Dr. Fudenberg, speaking at the NVIC International Vaccine Conference in Arlington, Virginia
in September 1997, this correlation is due to the mercury and aluminum that is in every flu shot, the gradual build-up of
which in the brain causes cognitive dysfunction. 10. Mental-Emotional Symptoms - Flu shots have been noted to cause
difficulty thinking, loss of initiative, confusion, sadness, and even hallucinations. GUILLAIN-BARRE SYNDROME The serious disease most often associated with flu shots is Guillain-Barre
(ghee-yan ban-ray) Syndrome. GBS is an autoimmune disease of the peripheral nervous system. The first symptoms involve weakness
or tingling sensations in the legs that may spread to the upper body. These neurological symptoms may increase until the victim
is almost paralyzed. This constitutes a medical emergency in which an artificial respirator and a heart monitor may be necessary.
We have to go on the basis that any and all flu vaccines are capable
of causing Guillain-Barre. The real answer to flu is not flu shots but building up your immune
system. That makes more sense that injecting a bunch of dead viruses (toxins) into your body at the time of the year when
your immune system is already compromised. Why do people get colds and flu mostly in the winter? We tend to exercise less,
eat more, and spend most of our time in crowded buildings heated by recirculating ventilation systems that are full of mold,
bacteria and viruses. It boggles the mind to think how many health problems would be remedied by just getting more fresh air!
Other suggestions for prevention or treatment of flu include: 1. Get off junk food - Avoiding refined sugar is especially important.
Bacteria, fungi, and viruses love it! The late pediatrician, Robert Mendelsohn, M.D., a frequent vaccination
critic, perhaps summarized things best with a November 5, 1986 quote from Dr. William Proschauer in the Scripps-Howard News
Service. He said that healthy people under age 65 should not take flu shots because, "the risk of suffering serious complications
from the vaccine is far greater that that of having serious effects from the flu." DISCLAIMER: The information contained
