Infant Vaccines Produce Autism Symptoms in New Primate Study by
University of Pittsburgh Scientists

ATLANTA, May 19 --Findings released Friday showed that infant monkeys
given vaccines officially recommended by the CDC and the American
Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) exhibited autism-like symptoms. Lead
investigator Laura Hewitson of the University of Pittsburgh and
colleagues presented study results at the International Meeting for
Autism Research (IMFAR) in London. Safety studies of medicines are
typically conducted in monkeys prior to use in humans, yet such basic
research on the current childhood vaccination regimen has never before
been done.

I think parents should sue not only Pharma, But also the American
Academy of Pediatrics for pushing these harmful UNTESTED vaccines.

American laws prohibit big pharma and the pediatricians from any
liability law suits.  You can only sue yourself, that is, your federal
government.  However, rather than being open to complaints, the feds
have set up a court system run by special liars...err, special
masters, and they use the dilbert...er dulbert rule to allow only
pharma shills to testify.

Secondly, if American parents were told the real truth, the license
for the MD might force the out of work docs  to use their  license to
drive a taxi.

So how does the government shilling for Pharma enter into a lawsuit
between two software companies?

Nope. There was no system like that in any communist country.

The system is quite good, Chuckie moronic comments aside, since it
provides for free legal representation and allows an awfully low
standard of proof, way lower than a preponderance of the evidence,
which is the standard in civil court cases.

The Special Masters are highly trained, and are provided with access
to experts, etc. to assist them in making decisions.

The problem Chuckie, and you, have is that the plaintiffs/claimants
need to actually offer some credible evidence to prove their case.

Too bad.

The last time I asked about that law, you went silent.  Had any
luck finding it since then?

Daubert is the rule for all expert testimony in all cases.
It's not a hard standard to meet; it only requires that the
testimony be based on replicable work instead of the voices
in the witness' head.

Has the use of fingerprinting been challenged in court lately, given
that it probably can't meet that standard?

I'm not aware of any such challenges.
How do you conclude that fingerprint evidence wouldn't meet
Daubert?

Sorry, I hit "send" before I should have.

I wouldn't claim to know a whole lot about the legalities of the use of
fingerprint evidence at trials, but AFAIK, there are several court cases
in the U.S. in which courts have excluded the use of fingerprint
evidence after its scientific reliability was challenged.

Since most criminal cases are prosecuted in local or state--and not
federal--courts, most of the rulings have only limited applicability,
and as of yet, haven't been widely adopted.

You particularly might want to look at State vs. Rose which is discussed
on the page above as well as a number of sites including:

Daubert is NOT the subject.
It is a diversion from the subject
by the *gang* who as usual cannot stand the truth.

In the federal courts. State courts can choose to follow Daubert, or
they follow Frye, which is similar.

Or the emptiness of the "experts" bank account.

Remember, the "experts" for the claimant's are paid regardless of who
wins. Coming up with unsupported blather, like Geier, et al does, is a
cash crop.

ATLANTA, May 19, 2008
Findings released Friday showed that infant monkeys given vaccines
officially recommended by the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics
(AAP) exhibited autism-like symptoms. Lead investigator Laura Hewitson of
the University of Pittsburgh and colleagues presented study results at the
International Meeting for Autism Research (IMFAR) in London. Safety studies
of medicines are typically conducted in monkeys prior to use in humans, yet
such basic research on the current childhood vaccination regimen has never
before been done.

The abstracts presented at IMFAR, the world's top autism science conference,
describe biological changes and altered behavior in vaccinated macaques that
are similar to those observed in children with autism. Unvaccinated animals
showed no such adverse outcomes. The vaccines given were those recommended
for U.S. infants in the 1990s, including several with the mercury
preservative thimerosal and the Measles-Mumps-Rubella vaccine. Rates of
autism spectrum disorder among children born in the 1990s surged
dramatically, from about 1 in 5,000 to 1 in 150 children.

"This research underscores the critical need for more investigation into
immunizations, mercury, and the alterations seen in autistic children,"
stated Lyn Redwood, director of SafeMinds. "SafeMinds calls for large scale,
unbiased studies that look at medical conditions associated with autism and
the effects of vaccines given as a regimen."

The group's request for research echoes that of Dr. Bernadine Healy, Former
NIH Director, in a CBS interview earlier this week. She asserted that public
health officials have been too quick to dismiss an autism-vaccine connection
when the research has been insufficient. The government recently conceded a
federal vaccine court case which agreed that a child regressed into autism
as a result of 9 vaccines given on one day.

"The full implications of this primate study await publication of the
research in a scientific journal," noted Theresa Wrangham, president of
SafeMinds. "But we can say that it demonstrates how the CDC evaded their
responsibility to investigate vaccine safety questions. Vaccine safety
oversight should be removed from the CDC and given to an independent
agency."

More information about SafeMinds (including neurodevelopmental disorders,
autism and mercury exposure) may be found at www.safeminds.org

The vaccines are tested. No question.

See the name David Gorski .  Read no further, that is Orac, who is a proven
liar ,and Mark S Probert's buddy who
lies for Mark S Probert, Merrick, NY.

Thirteen subjects, three controls, one control and five subjects
removed for unspecified reasons, behavioral outcomes, no blinding,
some very selective reporting on gene expression with much lower
thresholds than usual for gene expression panels, a very rigorous
program of testing on the animals.

The most amazing thing to me is that the University approved
the use of primates for it.
