What the authors write
Hubert Czerniak
Hubert Czerniak presents vaccination as the main cause of autism and compares diagnosis rates among the Amish and Americans.
„Numerous pieces of evidence show that excessive, too-early, and toxic vaccination is the main cause of autism. Doctors often insist that autism is a genetic disorder because it is diagnosed mainly in children. It is worth noting that we almost never see autism among unvaccinated children.”Liczne dowody wskazują, że nadmierne, zbyt wczesne i toksyczne szczepienia są główną przyczyną autyzmu. Często lekarze wciskają, że autyzm jest chorobą genetyczną, ponieważ diagnozowany jest głównie u dzieci. Warto zaznaczyć, że prawie w ogóle nie spotykamy autyzmu wśród dzieci niezaszczepionych.
Jerzy Jaśkowski
Jerzy Jaśkowski calls the link between autism and vaccination indisputable and connects possible symptoms with mitochondrial dysfunction.
„The link between autism and vaccination can be considered indisputable. It has been confirmed by U.S. government agencies, the U.S. Federal Court, a court in Italy in 2012, the president of pharmaceutical giant Merck in a report disclosed by GSK, and numerous scientific publications.”Związek autyzmu ze szczepieniami można uznać za bezdyskusyjny. Został on potwierdzony przez agencje rządowe USA, Sąd Federalny USA, Sąd we Włoszech w 2012 roku, prezydenta giganta farmaceutycznego firmy Merck’s w ujawnionym raporcie firmy GSK oraz w licznych publikacjach naukowych.
Jerzy Jaśkowski
Jerzy Jaśkowski claims that children with congenital mitochondrial dysfunction may develop symptoms of autism after vaccination.
„Children with congenital mitochondrial dysfunction may develop symptoms of autism after vaccination. Please name one pediatrician in Poland who tested children for mitochondrial dysfunction before vaccinating them. Not conducting this test is equivalent to carrying out a medical experiment on an unsuspecting child.”U dzieci, które mają wrodzoną dysfunkcję mitochondriów, mogą rozwinąć się objawy autyzmu po szczepieniach. Proszę podać mi jednego pediatrę w Polsce, który przed szczepieniem dzieci wykonał badanie dysfunkcji mitochondriów? Brak wykonania tego badania jest równoznaczne z przeprowadzeniem eksperymentu medycznego na niczego niespodziewającym się dziecku.
Piotr Witczak
Piotr Witczak writes that learning about toxicology and dietetics changed how he viewed the rising number of autism diagnoses.
„My awakening came when I became interested in toxicology and dietetics. For the first time, I then looked differently at the problem of the rising number of cases of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Around 1 in 100 children worldwide has an autism diagnosis, and in the United States the condition is diagnosed in as many as 1 in 27 boys aged 8 (2018 data).”Moje przebudzenie nastąpiło, gdy zainteresowałem się toksykologią, dietetyką. Wtedy po raz pierwszy inaczej spojrzałem na problem rosnącej liczby przypadków zaburzeń ze spektrum autyzmu (autism spectrum disorder; ASD). Na świecie około 1 na 100 dzieci ma postawioną diagnozę autyzmu, a w Stanach Zjednoczonych tę chorobę rozpoznaje się nawet u 1 na 27 chłopców w wieku 8 lat (dane z 2018 roku).
Piotr Witczak
Piotr Witczak points out that both genetic susceptibility and environmental factors may influence the development of autism.
„In the causes of ASD, genetic susceptibility is not the only important factor; a range of environmental factors is especially important[5][6], though few people know this. Children with autism usually require lifelong residential care, costly therapies, and special education, and they also have a significant impact on their parents’ productivity.”W etiologii ASD znaczenie ma nie tylko podatność genetyczna, ale przede wszystkim szereg czynników środowiskowych[5][6], o czym niewiele osób wie. Dzieci chorujące na autyzm wymagają zazwyczaj dożywotniej opieki stacjonarnej, kosztownych terapii, specjalnej edukacji, a także znacząco wpływają na produktywność rodziców.
Piotr Witczak
Piotr Witczak describes studies comparing autism with mercury poisoning and cites a conclusion that their symptoms are similar.
„The authors of the study concluded that “every significant feature of autism has been demonstrated in at least several cases of documented mercury poisoning.” Later studies and reviews of scientific literature confirmed that mercury (and other heavy metals) can lead to the development of ASD.”Autorzy pracy stwierdzili, że „każda istotna cecha autyzmu została wykazana w co najmniej kilku przypadkach udokumentowanego zatrucia rtęcią”. Pojawiające się później badania i przeglądy literatury naukowej potwierdziły, że rtęć (i inne metale ciężkie) może prowadzić do rozwoju ASD.
Piotr Witczak
Piotr Witczak emphasizes that the link with MMR remains controversial, and that mercury may not be the only environmental factor.
„Moreover, the observed and still controversial link between autism and the MMR vaccine[22][23] (which does not contain thimerosal) seems to suggest that exposure to mercury in vaccines is not the only environmental factor that may be responsible for the development of ASD[24].”Co więcej, obserwowany i wciąż kontrowersyjny związek autyzmu ze szczepionką MMR[22][23] (która nie zawiera tiomersalu) wydaje się sugerować, że narażenie na rtęć obecną w szczepionkach nie jest jedynym czynnikiem środowiskowym, który może być odpowiedzialny za rozwój ASD[24].
Piotr Witczak
Piotr Witczak considers mercury the leading possible environmental cause of autism.
„Although science points to many other potential causes of autism, mercury still seems to be the leading cause because it is widespread, is the most toxic heavy metal found in the environment[25], and has exceptionally wide-ranging effects on human physiology[26].”Chociaż nauka wskazuje na wiele innych potencjalnych czynników etiologicznych autyzmu, to jednak rtęć wydaje się wciąż dominującą przyczyną, ze względu na jej szerokie rozpowszechnienie, status najbardziej toksycznego metalu ciężkiego występującego w środowisku[25] oraz wyjątkowo wszechstronne właściwości modulujące fizjologię człowieka[26].
Stowarzyszenie STOP NOP
The STOP NOP Association reports that a court in Milan awarded compensation for autism said to have developed after the Infanrix Hexa vaccine was given.
„In 2014, a court in Milan ruled that the state must pay compensation and a supplement to a pension for autism that developed in a child after the Infanrix Hexa vaccine. The ruling is final.
The parents sued the Ministry, “showing that an autistic syndrome had been caused in their son by vaccinations that contained, in a dangerous way, certain heavy metals and contaminants—such as aluminum, whose toxicity would have increased in the presence of other ingredients, such as polysorbate 80—and mercury.”
The lawsuit was filed in 2011.”W 2014 roku Sąd w Mediolanie wydał wyrok zasądzający odszkodowanie i dodatek do renty od państwa za autyzm, który wystąpił u dziecka po szczepionce Infanrix Hexa. Wyrok jest prawomocny.
Rodzice pozwali ministerstwo „wykazując, że został wywołany u ich syna syndrom autystyczny na skutek szczepień, które zawierały, w niebezpieczny sposób, niektóre metale ciężkie i zanieczyszczenia – takie jak aluminium – którego toksyczność wzrosłaby w obecności innych składników, takich jak polisorbat 80 – oraz rtęć.”
Pozew został złożony w 2011 r.
Jerzy Jaśkowski
Jerzy Jaśkowski considers MMR the main cause of autism spectrum disorders and gives comparisons of diagnosis rates in different groups.
„An untested MMR vaccine, that is, a vaccine against measles, mumps, and rubella, was introduced in Poland. It contains as many as 3 live viruses and is considered the main cause of autism spectrum disorders. This will allow corporations to profit not only from selling vaccines to Poland, but also from treating later complications.”Na rynek Polski wprowadzono nieprzebadaną szczepionkę MMR tzn. przeciwko odrze, śwince i różyczce. Zawiera aż 3 żywe wirusy i jest uznawana za główną przyczynę chorób ze spektrum autyzmu. Dzięki temu korporacje nie tylko zarobią na sprzedaży do Polski szczepionek, ale i na leczeniu późniejszych powikłań.
Jerzy Zięba
Jerzy Zięba claims that a U.S. agency knew about a link between vaccination and autism, and that parents and doctors were deceived.
„The documentary film “VAXXED,” directed by Dr. Andrew Wakefield (released in Polish under the title “Wyszczepieni”), reveals that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control knew very well that there was a link between vaccination and autism in children. Parents were deceived, and so were doctors—mainly pediatricians who administered these vaccines.”Dokumentalny film pt. „VAXXED” w reżyserii doktora Andrew Wakefield’a (w polskiej wersji pod tytułem „Wyszczepieni”) ujawnia, że amerykański Urząd ds. Kontroli Chorób doskonale wiedział o tym, że istnieje związek pomiędzy szczepieniami i występowaniem autyzmu u dzieci. Tak więc, oszukano rodziców, oszukano lekarzy; głównie pediatrów, którzy te szczepionki stosowali.

In this study, boys vaccinated against hepatitis B as newborns had higher odds of an autism diagnosis than boys who were not vaccinated then.
Aim of the study: Universal hepatitis B vaccination was recommended for U.S. newborns in 1991; however, safety findings are mixed.
Results: Non-Hispanic white boys were 64% less likely to have an autism diagnosis than nonwhite boys. Findings suggest that U.S. male neonates vaccinated with the hepatitis B vaccine before 1999 (according to vaccination records) had a threefold higher risk of a parent-reported autism diagnosis than boys who were not vaccinated as neonates during the same period. Nonwhite boys faced a greater risk.

In a series of 12 children, parents linked the onset of behavioral symptoms to MMR vaccination in eight of them.
Aim of the study: We investigated a consecutive series of children with chronic enterocolitis and regressive developmental disorder.
Results: Parents associated the onset of behavioral symptoms with measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination in eight of the 12 children, with measles infection in one child, and with otitis media in another. All 12 children had intestinal abnormalities, ranging from lymphoid nodular hyperplasia to aphthoid ulceration. Histology showed patchy chronic inflammation in the colon in 11 children and reactive ileal lymphoid hyperplasia in seven, but no granulomas. Behavioral disorders included autism (nine), disintegrative psychosis (one), and possible postviral or vaccine-related encephalitis (two). There were no focal neurological abnormalities, and MRI and EEG tests were normal. Abnormal laboratory results included significantly raised urinary methylmalonic acid compared with age-matched controls (p=0.003), low hemoglobin in four children, and low serum IgA in four children.

An analysis of data from U.S. states found that a higher rate of childhood vaccination was associated with a higher prevalence of autism or speech and language disorders.
Aim of the study: The reason for the rapid rise of autism in the United States that began in the 1990s is a mystery. Although individuals probably have a genetic predisposition to develop autism, researchers suspect that one or more environmental triggers are also needed.
Results: Neither parental behavior nor access to care affected the results, since vaccination rates were not statistically related to any other disability or to the number of pediatricians in a U.S. state. The results suggest that although mercury has been removed from many vaccines, other culprits may link vaccines to autism. Further study into the relationship between vaccines and autism is warranted.

This review concluded that the lines of evidence available to the authors suggest a link between aluminum adjuvants in vaccines and autism.
Aim of the study: The manuscript reviews the association between aluminum adjuvants (AlAd) in vaccines and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Aluminum (Al) is neurotoxic.
Results: Thus, AlAd is an etiologic factor in ASD. Their effectiveness in triggering an immune response led to the use of AlAd in vaccines; however, the safety of those vaccinated with such vaccines has not been considered. The mechanisms of action of AlAd and the pharmacodynamics of injected AlAd used in vaccines are not well characterized. Multiple lines of evidence suggest an association between aluminum adjuvants in vaccines and autism spectrum disorder.

The review’s authors claim that earlier studies of thimerosal found harmful effects, including neurodevelopmental disorders.
Aim of the study: There are over 165 studies that have focused on Thimerosal, an organic-mercury (Hg) based compound, used as a preservative in many childhood vaccines, and found it to be harmful.
Results: Of these, 16 were conducted specifically to examine the effects of Thimerosal on human infants or children, and reported outcomes including death; acrodynia; poisoning; allergic reaction; malformations; autoimmune reaction; Well's syndrome; developmental delay; and neurodevelopmental disorders, including tics, speech delay, language delay, attention deficit disorder, and autism. In contrast, the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that Thimerosal is safe and that there is “no relationship between [T]himerosal[-]containing vaccines and autism rates in children.” This is puzzling because a study conducted directly by CDC epidemiologists found a 7.6-fold increased risk of autism from exposure to Thimerosal during infancy. The CDC’s current position that Thimerosal is safe and that there is no relationship between Thimerosal and autism is based on six specific published epidemiological studies coauthored and sponsored by the CDC.

„You may or may not be surprised that many internet searches (and almost all doctor visits) will assure you that, like vaccination, vitamins have little or nothing to do with treating autism. However, there is a whole body of knowledge that disagrees. Autism may be what Abram Hoffer, MD, PhD, called a nutritional dependency disease. This is distinct from and different from a nutrient deficiency disease. Deficiency means you are not getting the commonly accepted minimum amount. Dependency means that you personally need much more than others, permanently. Drugs will not correct vitamin dependencies. Nutritional treatment can, and has.
