Deadly Immunity: Mercury Autism Disaster Exposed

In an article titled Deadly Immunity, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. details his investigation of the US government covering up the mercury/autism scandal. The article was first published in Rolling Stone Magazine and - unprecedented in publishing history - at the same time is posted on Salon.com. The scandal, not really new to those who are following Big Pharma's misdeeds, is getting the exposure it deserves. Others have picked it up, see here, here, here and here. Although it's not (yet) in the mainstream press, the urgency to do something about this absolutely vile and clearly intentional poisoning of children in America and in several developing countries that have adopted American vaccine programs, is now widely felt.

Significantly, Kennedy in his concluding remarks describes the extent of the disaster, alluding to a growing loss of confidence in pharmaceutical medicine, not only in the First World, but also in those developing countries that have incautiously followed America's lead in pushing poisonous vaccinations for huge numbers of kids:

I devoted time to study this issue because I believe that this is a moral crisis that must be addressed. If, as the evidence suggests, our public-health authorities knowingly allowed the pharmaceutical industry to poison an entire generation of American children, their actions arguably constitute one of the biggest scandals in the annals of American medicine. "The CDC is guilty of incompetence and gross negligence," says Mark Blaxill, vice president of Safe Minds, a nonprofit organization concerned about the role of mercury in medicines. "The damage caused by vaccine exposure is massive. It's bigger than asbestos, bigger than tobacco, bigger than anything you've ever seen."

It's hard to calculate the damage to our country -- and to the international efforts to eradicate epidemic diseases -- if Third World nations come to believe that America's most heralded foreign-aid initiative is poisoning their children. It's not difficult to predict how this scenario will be interpreted by America's enemies abroad. The scientists and researchers -- many of them sincere, even idealistic -- who are participating in efforts to hide the science on thimerosal claim that they are trying to advance the lofty goal of protecting children in developing nations from disease pandemics. They are badly misguided. Their failure to come clean on thimerosal will come back horribly to haunt our country and the world's poorest populations.
