A recent study reveals that the small amounts of thimerosal found in vaccines are connected to brain pathology found in autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

The study “A Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Impaired Oxidative-Reduction Activity, Degeneration, and Death in Human Neuronal and Fetal Cells Induced by Low-Level Exposure to Thimerosal and Other Metal Compounds,” by Paul King, David Geier, and Marc Geier is published in the June 2009 issue of Toxicology & Environmental Toxicology. [1]

By inoculating neural cells with infinitesimal amounts of thimerosal (ethylmercurithiosalicylic acid) and other metal compounds (aluminum sulfate, lead acetate, methyl mercury hydroxide, and mercury chloride) comparable to the amounts a baby or child would get in a vaccine, it was found that thimerosal was by far the most toxic.

Cell injury included mitochondrial damage, reduced oxidative-reduction activity, cellular degeneration, and death. Cell damage was similar to that found in cell studies of autistic children. [2]

A urine test is available for non-chelated children or adults with ASD. Mercury poisoning correlated closely with the severity of ASD. [3]

Many dedicated doctors and parents are searching for answers and for cures for autism. Until all the mechanisms of its cause and cure are laid bare by private doctors, entrepreneurs, and concerned citizens, it appears that the epidemic of autism will continue.
