Here you will see data from formal medical peer refereed papers showing that

the number of Japanese children developing autism in Japan was directly

related to the number who received MMR and single measles vaccines.

 

This is proof the vaccines caused autism in Japanese children and so will do

the same to children around the world.

 

In 2005 a paper by two Japanese researchers, Hideo Honda and Yasuo Shimizu,

was published in an English psychiatric journal with psychiatrist Professor

Sir Michael Rutter also named as an author. The paper was claimed to be proof

MMR vaccine could not cause autistic spectrum disorders. But the authors

failed to provide the full picture. They made invalid claims. Those claims

were based on inadequate research containing basic flaws.

 

When the flaws are identified and corrected, the paper provides what seems

unusually strong proof, not normally seen, implicating vaccines as a cause of

Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD). The paper, when corrected with the

missing data, shows ASD numbers increased and decreased in direct proportion to

the

total number of measles and MMR vaccines given to children.

 

The paper shows not just a " _rechallenge_

(http://homepage.ntlworld.com/clifford.g.miller/hondarutter.html#the_power_of_re\

challenge) " in an entire

population sample in Japan, but a dose-response relationship on a population

level. " _Rechallenge_

(http://homepage.ntlworld.com/clifford.g.miller/hondarutter.html#the_power_of_re\

challenge) " is one of the strongest methods of proof

known in pharmacology to prove a drug causes a harmful effect. Seeing a

dose-response relationship on a population level is more unusual . Seeing it

with

the close numerical correspondence seen here is more unusual (more below) and

is yet stronger proof.

 

The Honda/Rutter paper is:-

 

" _No effect of MMR withdrawal on the incidence of autism: a total population

study_ (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15877763) . " Journal of Child

Psychology and Psychiatry (2005).

 

The corrected paper appears to be very strong proof implicating MMR and

single measles vaccines as a cause of ASD. It also implicates rubella and JE

(Japanese Encephalitis) vaccine containing the vaccine ingredient and known

toxic mercury containing neurotoxin, thiomersal (a.k.a. thimerosal). All these

vaccines are associated with the Japanese _rechallenge_

(http://homepage.ntlworld.com/clifford.g.miller/hondarutter.html#the_power_of_re\

challenge) .

 

That the practice in Japan was to give the measles and rubella vaccines at

the same time was the boast of The British Department of Health. That was to

bolster official claims that whistle blower medical doctor Andrew Wakefield's

concerns about the MMR vaccine were wrong. The Honda/Rutter paper was

announced in the usual blaze of publicity. And as usual, the truth has not

been.

At the very least what no one can argue validly with is that scientifically

the Honda/Rutter paper is deeply flawed.

 

Professor Rutter has many close associations with the drug industry and

particularly with GlaxoSmithKline, having been a paid expert witness on their

behalf in the UK MMR vaccine damage litigation. That was not declared in the

Honda/Rutter paper nor were any other potential conflicts of interest or

statements of funding (about which _see more below_

prosecution witnesses in the _witchhunt in the British General Medical Council

against medical doctors Andrew Wakefield, Simon Murch and Professor

_The Invalid Claims_

(http://homepage.ntlworld.com/clifford.g.miller/hondarutter.html#The_Invalid_Cla\

ims)

 

 

The Honda/Rutter paper claimed that new cases of autism in Japan fell for

children born in 1991-92 (as the confidence of Japanese parents fell in the

dangerous Japanese MMR vaccine withdrawn on safety grounds in 1992) but then

rose sharply again and especially for children who were born in 1993-94. Here

is the graph from the Honda/Rutter paper:-

 

 

[graph ]

 

The authors summarised their results (my emphasis):-

 

 

" The MMR vaccination rate in the city of Yokohama declined signiï¬cantly in

the birth cohorts of years 1988 through 1992, and not a single vaccination was

administered in 1993 or thereafter. In contrast, cumulative incidence of

ASD up to age seven increased signiï¬cantly in the birth cohorts of years 1988

through 1996 and most notably rose dramatically beginning with the birth

cohort of 1993. "

 

 

The authors wrongly claimed this meant it was unlikely MMR vaccine caused

autism spectrum disorders. The authors failed to do what any scientist would

have done. They failed to ask themselves " why? " .

 

Why did autism rapidly increase for children born in 1993-94 and thereafter?

As can be seen from the above Honda/Rutter graph in 93-94 and after the

autism rate was double that in the period up to 1992 when the MMR vaccine was

withdrawn. The authors were duty bound to consider this before going into

print. This is particularly notable because their data shows they were clearly

on notice that withdrawing the dangerous Japanese MMR vaccine was associated

with a marked drop in new cases of autism. Anyone can see that from their

graphs. Autism cases fell for those born in 1991-92 as uptake of the Japanese

MMR vaccine fell and was withdrawn in 1992.

 

_The Vaccination Data Honda/Rutter Omitted_

_Data_HondaRutter)

 

In Japan when MMR was introduced, single measles vaccine was still being

used side-by-side with MMR. Professor Rutter and his colleagues failed to take

that into account.

 

They also failed to look to two peer refereed papers published only three

years earlier in 2002 which provide some of the missing data:-

 

* the " Nakatani paper " after the lead author, Hiroki Nakatani:

_Development of Vaccination Policy in Japan: Current Issues and Policy

Directions_

(http://www.nih.go.jp/JJID/55/101.pdf) , Hiroki Nakatani,Tadashi Sanoand

Tsutomu Iuchi Jpn J Infect Dis 55 101-111 2002.

 

* the " Terada paper " , after the lead author Kihei Terada: _Alterations

in epidemics and vaccination for measles during a 20 year period and a

strategy for elimination in Kurashiki City, Japan_

(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11974886?ordinalpos=1 & itool=EntrezSystem2.PE\

dbfrom=pubmed) : Terada K, Niizuma T, Ogita S, Kataoka N. Kansenshogaku

Zasshi: Department of Pediatrics, Kawasaki Medical School 2002

Mar;76(3):180-4

 

The Nakatani and Terada papers provide a more complete picture. The Terada

paper sets out the annual Japanese vaccination data for the annual numbers of

vaccinations for measles and MMR vaccines combined in Kurashiki City,

Japan. The Nakatani paper sets out the Japanese vaccination data, including

for

measles, rubella and the mercury containing Japanese Encephalitis vaccine.

 

Grateful thanks for generously making his library facilities available pro

bono publico without condition or hesitation, and especially so for enabling

the key Terada paper to be located are due to Professor Jeff Bradstreet MD,

MD(H) FAAFP, Adjunct Professor of Pediatrics,

 

Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine, International Child Development

Research Centre, Melbourne, FL 32934, USA. It is certain some children and

their families will be saved from a lifetime of autism as a result as soon as

the information here becomes more widely available.

When Honda/Rutter is compared to Terada it can be seen that

ASD numbers appear to have been directly proportional to the total number of

measles and MMR vaccines given in any year. In other words, the number of

Japanese children who developed autism was directly related to the number who

received MMR and single measles vaccines. This is what is called a

dose-response relationship - the extent of the effect of a drug is related to

the

amount of the drug administered:-

 

 

[graph]

Terada Paper: Fig. 4 Numbers of measles vaccinations and births in Kurashiki

City from 1980 to 2000

 

[and another graph]

Honda/Rutter Fig. 1: Numbers of ASD diagnoses in children up to 7 years of

age by year of birth

 

These graphs compare data for children born in two different areas:

Kurashiki City with Kohoku Ward, Yokohama. Despite this, the correspondence is

remarkable.

 

Note in particular that when you compare the graph on the right, remember

that the children would not have been vaccinated until they were 15-18 months

old. So you compare the ASD rates with the vaccination rates approximately

two years later. The graph on the right is 15-18 months " ahead " of the graph

on the left.

 

Further, the Nakatani paper indicates this similarity in the data is

unlikely to be coincidence. The Nakatani paper shows the national vaccination

rates

in Japan. These are closely similar in profile to that shown for Kurashiki

City. It is also reasonable to expect that the national vaccination rates

would be similar for Kohoku Ward (data in the Honda/Rutter paper).

 

The Nakatani paper also implicates rubella vaccine and the

thiomersal/thimerosal mercury containing JE (Japanese Encephalitis) vaccines.

 

That paper showed that in 1995 there was a sharp rise (150%) in single

measles and single rubella vaccinations. Many of the children getting those

vaccines in 1995 would have been those born in 1993-4. This rise was also

coupled

with a doubling in Japanese Encephalitis vaccinations (200%) between 1993 and

1995. Japanese Encephalitis vaccine was given in three separate vaccinations

and each one contained the poisonous mercury based neurotoxin thiomersal.

So JE vaccine is just like DTP given to children in the USA and UK up until

very recently in that it contained that neurotoxin and was given in three

jabs to infants or toddlers.

 

Here is the graph from the earlier paper showing the increases in single

measles, rubella and JE vaccine vaccination rates by 1995 in Japan - I have

added the vertical blue line and ringed the legend to pick out the measles,

rubella and JE vaccine lines of the graph:-
