The data is clear: the more vaccines you give your child, the more likely it is that they will develop chronic diseases including autism

I surveyed the parents of 10,000 kids on a variety of common chronic health conditions.

For every single condition in my survey, vaccination raised the odds that the child would develop the condition; the more vaccines, the higher the risk.

My survey confirms the results of other research that has been done showing similar risk elevations for chronic neurological diseases (ND).

This is devastating for our kids. Vaccines are literally poisoning them. This is why the health authorities will never conduct such a study such as the ones I point out below.

In fact, in 2009, 10 members of Congress including Rand Paul, tried to pass a bill forcing NIH to do a study, but the bill never made it out of the first committee because they don’t want you to ever find out that they’ve been poisoning our kids for decades.

Anyone can replicate the study I did. It took me just 24 hours to run. I invite any mainstream “fact checker” in the world to validate the results; I have the contact info for all the parents.

If the CDC wants to resolve the question quickly, all they have to do is give Professor Brian Hooker access to the VSD and Medicaid databases. Why not do that? Don’t they want people to know the truth?

Finally, the most important thing is that none of the vaccines have been needed in America for the last 25 years. Pediatric clinics which eschew vaccines have uniformly better clinical outcomes than their peers who vaccinate in the same population of kids.

This is a long but very important article.

This graph was done by Matt Briggs, an independent statistician. It’s crystal clear: kids with more vaccines are more likely to suffer from chronic conditions.

Here is the summary of the survey. The right column is the odd-ratio for kids getting the condition with 10-15 vaccines compared with kids with no vaccines or Vitamin K shots. So if you got 10-15 vaccines, you are 4.5X more likely to develop autism than an unvaccinated child.

And we know from other studies (pediatric clinics with thousands of unvaccinated kids), that when you eliminate vaccination and the use of Tylenol, the autism rates drop to near zero. So this result isn’t a surprise.

Here’s the table:

You can download the survey, the record-level data and the analysis.

These results shouldn’t be a surprise at all. They are similar to other studies comparing vaccinated with FULLY unvaccinated kids (see the next section).

The bottom line: Kids with more vaccines are much more likely, not less likely, to have a large number of chronic neurological conditions.

For example, from the table above:

  • ADHD: 7x

  • Autoimmune disorders: 21x

  • Autism: 5x

  • Asthma: 9.3x

  • Epilepsy: 4x

  • Sinusitis: 33x

The largest signal was for sinusitis (33X more likely than fully unvaccinated); this basically is so rare in the fully unvaccinated that it causes the number to be high.

It is as devastating as giving your child a vaccine at birth as has been clearly pointed out in the Control Group study

In short, listening to your doctor was a huge mistake that your child will likely never recover from.

Check this out:

Here are other studies you should look at, all showing that the vaccines are significantly elevating the chance your child will get a chronic disease.

These are all published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature. None of these studies have been retracted (even though Gorski would lie and claim they are retracted). I show the odds ratio for autism for comparison with my survey.

  1. Hooker: 5.03

  2. Mawson: 4.2

  3. Control group: Infinite. “For those with zero exposures to post-birth vaccines, pre-birth vaccines, or the K shot, the total rate of autism in the entire CGS is 0% (0 of 1,024)”

  4. Lyons-Weiler: The study was too small to assess autism risk, but showed better health outcomes among the unvaccinated than the vaccinated in other conditions. See this article which notes that the unvaccinated had better compliance to their wellness checks than the vaccinated which eliminates a common argument that anti-anti-vaxxers use. It says, “the unvaccinated families made their well-child visits with greater frequency than the vaccinated families.”

The Thomas study shows similar results. The study was unethically retracted by the journal over the objection of the authors, i.e., the journal didn’t follow the COPE guidelines. They said that “the conclusions were not supported by strong scientific data” which is NOT a valid reason to retract a study once it is published. The journal retracted the paper after an anonymous person claimed (without any evidence) that the results could be due to fewer office visits by the unvaxxed. The author provided evidence that this was not the case, but the journal ignored the evidence. Why? Because the paper got 250,000 views, it had to be retracted because it was counter-narrative and too popular. Later, a new paper showed proof that the reason the journal gave for retracting the paper was clearly false. The journal decided not to admit they were wrong and did not reverse the retraction of the Thomas paper. This is corruption of the highest magnitude. Please complain here using DOI:10.3390/ijerph17228674. The authors of that study would love to debate anyone on the ethics of this retraction. Any takers?

  1. Paul Thomas: Showed generally consistent results overall. The study showed a RIOV of “developing autism” of 4.0 which dropped lower for more vaccines because kids are more likely to develop autism when they are younger and have had fewer vaccines.

Note: it’s possible that vaccines may be causing transgenderism, homosexuality, and many other conditions. I didn’t even think of that when I drafted the survey

Another Internet survey of 13,000 people showed a similar result, the unvaccinated were much better off in all areas measured in the survey (red bars always dramatically smaller):

Comparison unvaccinated-vaccinated

There were controls to detect bias (birth defects, genetic disorders) which were not elevated proving that the survey was not biased. The OR for these conditions were both close to 1 exactly as we predicted.

The survey is analyzed using odds-ratios so the mix of vaxxed vs. unvaxxed is completely irrelevant.

So it doesn’t matter that 12% of the kids in my survey were unvaccinated. It simply means that I only had to survey 10,000 kids to get a decent comparison group; if others did their survey, they’d have to survey nearly 1M kids to find the same number of unvaccinated kids as I did. So I am able to do studies that are impractical for most other people to do.

The only way to attack my survey is to show that the parents all colluded and lied about their kids.

To defend against this attack, I have the contact info for each respondent and invite any fact checker to verify all the entries are accurate provided if you check, you have to publish the results.

The survey took 2 hours to write and was fully executed in 24 hours. The results were not shown to the public until after the survey was completed, making it impossible to game the results. All the data was collected on Airtable so that there would be a record of any data manipulation.

It is astonishing to me that none of the people who argue that vaccines don’t cause neurological diseases (ND) will do such a survey and show that the data I collected is inaccurate. Why won’t they do that?

Why won’t the CDC simply open up access to the VSD and CMS databases so we validate the results ourselves? Why hasn’t the CDC ever used VSD to do the same study? They’ve had 25 years to do that and never did. Why?

We aren’t aware of any study, comparing the fully unvaccinated vs. partially or fully vaccinated kids that doesn’t have similar numbers.

When you read the peer-review literature carefully, you’ll find that they always consider the “unvaccinated” group to have kids without the particular vaccine under study.

So when they compare the MMR vaccine, they compare it to the kids who didn’t get the MMR vaccine. So it’s like comparing the autism rates of kids who got 28 vaccines with the rates of kids who got 27 vaccines. This is how they hide the signal. They design studies which are designed to fail.

Just because they don’t find a signal, it doesn’t mean that it isn’t there. It just means their study design didn’t find the signal.

They will NEVER compare the chronic disease rates in kids who got all recommended vaccines (well over 50 shots, many with multiple vaccines) vs. completely unvaccinated kids. It simply has never happened.

The excuse that unvaccinated kids are too hard to find is ridiculous. The Amish have thousands of such kids and there are hundreds of such kids that can be located in a heartbeat. All they have to do is call me and I’ll be happy to help.

There is another study with around 50,000 kids that was done. It’s not published yet, but the results confirm the studies that were done above: the more you vaccinate kids the greater the difference in chronic diseases vs. the unvaccinated.

The medical journals will likely reject the study because it goes against the narrative. The study was done by a well known researcher.

Yes. More on that in an upcoming article. If you remove the vaccines and Tylenol, the rates of autism drop to near zero.

In 2007, Generation Rescue (GR), an organization that is trying to alert Americans that vaccines cause autism, hired a third party polling firm (SurveyUSA) and paid them $200,000 to do a survey. The advantage to using a third party to do the survey is that GR cannot manipulate the results.

Like my survey, the GR survey found significant elevations for all diseases and conditions.

In the summary report, GR noted the following lack of interest by the CDC in doing any studies comparing vaccinated to unvaccinated kids:

No studies have ever been done to compare ND rates of children who received vaccines with those who received no vaccines, which is what our survey accomplished. Moreover, no studies have ever explored a link between vaccines and ADHD, despite the fact that 1 in 13 U.S. children have this diagnosis (versus 1 in 150 for autism).

The glaring absence of a study to compare vaccinated and unvaccinated children for ND rates caused Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) to introduce this bill to compel the National Institutes of Health to do such a study.

Those statements are as true today as they were 16 years ago.

No public health authority has ever done such a survey. Ever.

I predict that such a survey will never be done because they don’t want the truth to be known.

The bill, H.R.3069 — 111th Congress (2009-2010), was introduced on June 26, 2009 with 9 co-sponsors including Ron Paul. It never made it out of committee.

Here’s the summary:

Requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), acting through the Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), to conduct a comprehensive study to: (1) compare total health outcomes, including the risk of autism, between vaccinated and unvaccinated U.S. populations; and (2) determine whether vaccines or vaccine components play a role in the development of autism spectrum or other neurological conditions.

The bill would have forced the NIH to do just ONE study.

Why would anyone be opposed to finding the truth?

The answer is simple: because our government simply does not want anyone to know the truth.

People would go nuts if they found out that the CDC has been harming our kids for decades with these vaccines and not telling anyone. It would destroy all faith in the mainstream press, the medical community, Congress, and US government agencies. So they killed the bill and there is no press about it. All silenced by the mainstream media.

Some people will gaslight you into believing that surveys are not “science.” That is false.

In fact, Professor Anders Hviid, an author of the highly cited Denmark study which claims that vaccines don’t cause autism, was so proud of his nationwide questionnaire study on COVID that was published in Nature that he pinned it to his Twitter profile; he’s the senior author on that study!

Professor Hviid then blocked everyone from viewing his tweets within 24 hours after I emailed him to ask him for his data.

If these surveys are all wrong, where are their surveys done by a reputable independent polling firm with no conflicts of interest showing the “correct” numbers?

The silence and lack of interest tells you everything.

Here’s what Judy Gerberding, the CDC Director said in 2005:

I think those kinds of studies could be done and should be done.

Let’s speed this up. Let’s look for the early studies that could give us at least some hypotheses to test and evaluate and get information flowing through the research pipeline as quickly as we can. So we are committed to doing that/

We think we will be able to provide more accurate information in the next year or so than we’ve been able to do up to this point. And I know that is our responsibility.

Guess what happened? They did nothing.

Why didn’t they just run exactly the same poll that Generation Rescue did in 2007? Just employ a different third party respected research firm to replicate their study and see if they get similar results. That would have been easy and a great start. Total cost: $200,000.

Instead they did nothing…. nothing!

It reminds me of Sgt Schultz:

When An AM or PA see something they know is wrong, or against the rules. :  r/AmazonFC

The CDC doesn’t want to know what is going on. If they were honest, why not run exactly the same poll that GR did and show the results are different? Why not give Professor Brian Hooker and Dr. James Lyons-Weiler full access to VSD and Medicaid to do their research? I’ll pay for their time. It would cost the CDC nothing, nothing!

If the CDC was honest and had nothing to hide, they would give researchers such as Professor Brian Hooker, James Lyons-Weiler, and other scientists who have published papers on autism in the peer-reviewed scientific literature, free, full, unfettered access to the VSD and Medicaid databases to do research.

But they won’t.

They never will.

Because hiding the data is critical.

And that tells you everything you need to know, doesn’t it?

Here’s my handy list of other things you should know:

  1. Here is a complete list of necessary vaccines:

  2. Have you ever wondered why vaccines work so well? Check out the graphs here. You’ll find this most interesting.

  3. None of the vaccines used in America today were ever tested against a true placebo (saline shot). This was noted in Turtles all the way down and has never been disproven.

  4. There are no post-marketing studies of vaccine safety for any vaccine in America that prove the vaccines are safe. Only the states have the data and they aren’t sharing the data or doing the studies. See my article on data transparency for details and also my article “Is it safe?” for details on why that is.

  5. Did you know CDC doesn’t have the vaccination record-level data for any vaccine from any state? So the CDC can’t know if the vaccines are safe. They could ask the states to provide these records, but they are too shy to ask the states for the data. I got this directly from the head of Media Relations at the CDC. I was floored.

  6. The states aren’t doing the safety analysis either. When I contacted California State Epidemiologist Erica Pan, she ghosted me immediately after I asked her, “Do you believe in data transparency?”

  7. None of the states make record-level public health data public. If they do that, we’d improve clinical outcomes. There’s no study showing keeping this data secret improves clinical outcomes. I believe that they keep this data hidden to cover the harms caused by vaccines. I’d love to be proven wrong. Simply open up the records.

  8. A lot of people believe that vaccines have eliminated many diseases and are a net benefit to society. I’ve yet to see the proof of any of that today. While it “sounds” plausible, the risk benefits of each vaccine are dynamic and depend on the current morbidity and mortality of the disease relative to that of the vaccine. Where is the data on that? I haven’t seen it. Have you? There should be an on-going annual evaluation of risk vs. benefit for each vaccine. This has never been done. Why not let us into the VSD to make these assessments instead of blindly assuming vaccines have no risks?

One other thing that I found alarming, my daughter came home from school last year and said that in health class they were all talking about things that they were allergic to. Out of 24 students, my unvaccinated daughter was the only one that wasn’t allergic to anything. So ironic.

Please consider becoming a paid subscriber. I do this full time and your support allows me to do this work on your behalf and expose the corruption.

I can guarantee you that the US government is definitely not funding any of my work. Can you guess why?

The evidence is clear. The primary reason we have an epidemic in autism and other chronic diseases and neurological conditions is due to the vaccination program in America.

Read that again. The vaccines are causing the epidemic in neurological disorders in America.

If we eliminate the use of all vaccines entirely, our kids will be dramatically healthier. I couldn’t find a single counter example of this anywhere in America. All the clinics that have tried this approach have superior outcomes. Every. Single. One.

All the pediatric clinics I’m aware of which eschew vaccination have superior health outcomes. No exceptions.

That is the reason that no health authority anywhere in the world will debate us (Hooker, Mawson, Lyons-Weiler, Wakefield, …) on this. It’s just never going to happen.

That is also the reason that our access to VSD and Medicaid is DENIED. It is forbidden to use these databases for any research that might show the vaccines are a problem. They will never allow any of our scientists to see the data. If the vaccines are safe, they would be tripping over themselves to let us in so we can prove to ourselves we were wrong.

Don’t take my word for it on vaccinations.

My advice is simple: NEVER trust your doctor on this topic. Always do your own research before consenting to any injection for yourself or your children. You can never undo a vaccine. There is no way to “unvaccinate” yourself.

Before you consider taking a vaccine, always DEMAND see to the large scale public health data record-level data which can be analyzed to show safety and efficacy. Isn’t it funny how they all refuse to produce that data? NOBODY will publicly release the public healthy record-level data. NOBODY. It can be easily done without any privacy issues. That’s just an excuse.

Have you ever seen any large scale studies based on public record-level data proving it is safe? I haven’t. There’s a reason for that: there are no such studies. Zero. I defy anyone to prove me wrong on that. They won’t expose the data. If the vaccines are truly safe, why are they hiding the data?

This is why surveys such as the one I did are so important because they won’t give us access to THEIR records so we have to do our own data collection.

These surveys assess what is really happening. In just 24 hours, I was able to gather sufficient evidence to convince myself that vaccines are an unmitigated disaster.

I have NEVER heard of anyone doing something similar to what I did and getting a different result. Have you? They have never shown us THEIR studies. Why is that?

And that, my friends, is the reason why, when your doctor asks whether you want a vaccine injection for yourself or your child, you should always just say NO.

Nobody wants to make the public health records public. And now you know why.

Please consider sharing this article and help save a life or two.

You can prove that vaccines cause autism in one VAERS query

It isn’t because people are more aware of the MMR causing and thus report it more because the reporting rates for the DTP vaccine is comparable and that isn’t associated with autism!

The low number of reports for the HepB vaccine means that this vaccine causes autism at a 38X lower rate than the MMR vaccine.

Did anyone predict this? If so, how?

If not, we clearly can see that the autism risk depends on the type of vaccine given.

You can’t dismiss this as the numbers are small because the p-value is nearly 0.

This didn’t happen by chance. This is a very strong effect.

The CDC schedule says the MMR is given from 12 to 15 months. The HepB can be given from 12 to 18 months. Note: My query window was from 12 to 36 months.

Here’s the query again, with a window of 12 month to 18 months showing our expert John Tal is very badly mistaken:

So now it’s a factor of 32X. It’s impossible to explain that.

I’d love to ask him, but he doesn’t answer any questions. “The science” must not be questioned apparently.

Can any autism “expert” explain this?

Key paper showing “no link between vaccines and autism” is fatally flawed

Anders Hviid - Research Leader Programme

A key author of the most widely cited study showing there is no link between vaccines and autism refused to supply the data, answer my questions about data integrity, and otherwise defend his paper. Even a $25,000 prize didn’t make a difference. Instead, he asked how to block me and then did so. Why would an honest scientist be afraid of scrutiny? They wouldn’t. They would be tripping all over themselves to show their study was legitimate and that I am wrong.

At the suggestion of anti-anti-vaxxer David Gorski, I threw down the gauntlet and challenged Professor Anders Hviid, one of the key authors of the most important study that falsely claims that there is no link between vaccines and autism, to supply the underlying data and debate a group of scientists who disagree with his paper. I even offered him a $25,000 prize if he could defend his study. A mutually agreeable neutral panel would judge the discussion.

He ignored my offer and asked his followers on Twitter how to block me.

This is not how an honest scientist would react. I’ve listed some very uncomfortable questions below that he simply cannot answer in writing or in a live discussion. So he can’t make the silly excuse that debates must be in writing. Certainly Yale Professor Jason Abaluck debated us on video when challenged his study. No problem for him. Is Professor Hviid any more special than Professor Abaluck? Nope. No chance.

Real scientists don’t run for cover when their work is challenged by credible scientists. They defend their studies like Professor Abaluck did. I commend him for that.

Here’s why:

Image

I pointed out that the data they used in their study was flawed. Any honest scientist would say “Thank you! We will retract our paper.” Anders did the opposite. He ignored me and asked how to block me. Only someone who is corrupt would do that.

So now, here is the evidence for the world to see. Honest scientists do not behave this way when shown they are wrong.

Andrew Wakefield was right: vaccines cause autism.

Professor Anders Hviid and his colleagues published a paper A Population-Based Study of Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Vaccination and Autism in 2002 in NEJM that has been widely cited by others (over 1,000 other papers) as strong evidence that vaccines don’t cause autism.

Hviid and his colleagues chose a study design that was designed to look credible but obscure any signal. So when they found no signal they could claim victory, that there was “no association.”

But the real meaning of what they found is that “the study design we choose is unable to find a signal.” That can either mean:

  1. The methodology was inappropriate to find a signal

  2. The data was corrupted

  3. There were confounding factors such as a change in reporting requirements that obscured a signal

  4. There is no signal

In Hviid’s case, the first three were true.

When I asked Harvard Professor of Epidemiology Martin Kulldorff why he thinks vaccines don’t cause autism, this is the paper he cites because it is “gold standard data.”

Nope. No sir. It was proven the data was unreliable.

This key paper, that is relied on by over 1,000 other papers, is deeply flawed because:

  1. they never looked at the best metrics designed to find a signal

  2. because the underlying data was later found to be inaccurate

  3. because it overstates his conclusion. The study didn’t prove there is no link. It just proved that the methodology he used to try to find a signal was flawed as noted in the Letters section of his article. In short, the paper shows that the authors didn’t find a signal. They didn’t find a signal because 1) they didn’t look for the most obvious way to find the signal, 2) the data was flawed, and 3) the methods they did use were not sensitive enough

  4. There were confounding factors such as a change in reporting requirements that obscured a signal

  5. The conflicts of interest were never disclosed

In short, just because you didn’t find a signal doesn’t mean there is no signal. It just means you couldn’t find one. Get it?

Professor Hviid refuses to show us the underlying data or defend his study. Even after I offered him a $25,000 incentive to do so.

I wanted to ask Professor Hviid some questions about his study such as:

  1. Can we see the data? Why not? Why is it a secret? Could it be that you are hiding something?

  2. Wouldn’t this paper showing the underlying data you used is flawed invalidate your results? If not, why not? Why didn’t you retract your study when you learned this?

  3. Why didn’t you look at autism diagnoses relative to the time of MMR vaccination in your study? This would be the most sensitive measure. I found that diagnoses in the week after MMR vaccination is 5X greater than the week before vaccination. What did you find when you looked at that? Is that why you are hiding the data from us?

  4. How can you explain this 1998 paper in Pediatrics that shows a very clear link between vaccines and ASD? How can brain injury be vaccine dependent? How can there be a spike at 8/9 days after the measles vaccine only? How do you explain why that is statistically significant and no spike for the mumps and rubella vaccine? Why does the pertussis vaccine have a shorter time to symptoms (less than 7 days)? Doesn’t the fact that different vaccines (even though given at the same ages) have a dramatically different side effect profile mean the vaccines cause brain injury? If not, what is the more likely explanation?

  5. Why didn’t you and your co-authors reveal your clear conflicts of interest?

  6. Why didn’t they talk in the paper about the changing of the autism reporting rules in Denmark.

  7. Why would the CDC go to Denmark to do an autism study? They have 100% reported data in Medicare.

  8. Why did you ignore my request to supply the underlying data?

  9. Who else validated the data after the paper came out?

  10. Why was this method really the best way to detect causality? Why not look at the time the parent first noticed the autism relative to the nearest date of vaccination? If vaccination is not causal, this will be a flat line.

  11. Why did you seek to block me when I started asking questions about your paper? Is that what someone with nothing to hide does?

  12. Can you comment on this presentation regarding the conflicts of interest?

  13. I gave you an opportunity to comment on this article and provide corrections before I published it. Did you find anything wrong? If so, why didn’t you say anything?

  14. Shouldn’t the paper acknowledge that one of the co-authors, Poul Thorsen, M.D, is wanted by the US DOJ for fraud? He’s on the MOST WANTED list. And how is it that they can’t extradite him? I have a lot of questions I’d like to ask about how much you knew about this and what role he played in the research and why he’s on the MOST WANTED list.

In short, his paper isn’t trustable and he’s acting in an evasive manner by refusing to supply the data or answer any questions.

Here’s the challenge I posted on Twitter:

If he’s telling the truth, he has nothing to lose and he’d be famous for showing the world that I’m wrong about vaccines causing autism.

How did he react to my challenge? By asking his followers how to block me! Check this out:

Since Anders refuses to supply the underlying data for his paper, refuses to answer any questions about his paper, and cannot explain what is wrong with the other papers, he loses the challenge.

He has literally thrown in the towel and admitted defeat.

Check this out. This happened right after I sent him my article for his review.

Is this what honest scientists do when they are challenged? Hide the evidence from public view? Nope.

Naturally, I hit “follow” to get access to his tweets. Don’t hold your breath on that one.

It failed all 7 elements of a sound hypothesis:

vaccines cause autism and Andrew Wakefield was right. So were all the parents of autistic children who suspected the vaccine. They were right too.

He didn’t respond to any of the emails I sent him.

I thought you’d might enjoy reading them:

Professor Hviid,

I am a journalist in California. My friend Professor Martin Kulldorff speaks very highly of your work.

But I believe there is a very good chance that the truth may be the opposite of what you present in your study.

While we could debate this in the academic literature, if we did that it would take 10 years, and  I think it’s important we resolve this question ASAP. Don’t you agree?

Plus, we are not allowed to ask questions of the authors in papers.

Therefore, in the interests of getting to the truth ASAP,  please see this offer:

https://twitter.com/stkirsch/status/1662434565888016392?s=20

and this offer:

https://twitter.com/stkirsch/status/1662451275361910784?s=20

This is an opportunity for your research team to share an extra $50,000 in research funds which I’m sure you’ll put to good use.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Please respond to all via email and ALSO DM me on twitter (@stkirsch).

Also, can you tell me where I can download the record level data backing each study (the main autism study and the COVID safety study). We’d like to look at it.

Thanks!

There were many more emails. I won’t bore you. This guy is not an honest scientist.

You can contact John Stone who writes Age of Autism who has a lot more info on Anders.

I was sent so much information on these guys I could spend the next month or two writing about it.

If you’d like to write to Professor Hviid to let him know what you think, here is his contact info.

Also, I hear he’s looking for a big rock to hide under so if you have any suggestions, you can include that as well.

If you want to be creative, you could ship him a big rock with instructions on how to hide under it.

From Under A Rock | Denver CO

Professor Anders Hviid, a key author of what is arguably the most cited paper claiming vaccines don’t cause autism, has refused to defend his work, answer any of my questions, or supply me with the underlying data used in his study.

He knows if he did any of this, he would be discredited.

His paper is wrong and should be retracted. The underlying data is flawed and he has refused to acknowledge that. He never even did the subgroup analysis looking for the odds of an autism diagnosis 14 days before the shot vs. 14 days after the shot.

He has conflicts of interest that were not disclosed in his paper.

When a scientist runs away from legitimate questions and data requests like this, it generally means only one thing: the study is deeply flawed.

Is there any credible scientist who will defend this deeply flawed study? I think not.

So maybe it is time for the over 1,000 papers who relied on this flawed paper to note that in their studies? And maybe it’s time for some brave scientists to finally acknowledge the truth that vaccines can cause autism?

For every day we delay, another 1,000 kids will develop autism from vaccines. They should all be stopped. Now. Our kids will be healthier. We have a large medical practice over 25 years of health records comparing unvaccinated kids vs. vaccinated kids that proves this. There are simply too many studies that were done by honest brokers with no agenda that confirm the dangers of vaccination.

In fact, a simple twitter poll can tell people in seconds that vaccines cause autism. Try this on your own account and see what happens. You’ll always get the first result until the anti-anti-vaxxers attack your poll. Try it and see for yourself if you don’t believe me.

I will be coming out soon with an article summarizing the key evidence showing the vaccines cause autism. Professor Hviid can simply explain how the observations are consistent with his conclusion. That will be most entertaining!

Proof: author of #1 paper showing no link between vaccines and autism is corrupt

So he can’t make the silly excuse that debates must be in writing. Certainly Yale Professor Jason Abaluck debated us on video when challenged his study. No problem for him. Is Professor Hviid any more special than Professor Abaluck? Nope. No chance.

Real scientists don’t run for cover when their work is challenged by credible scientists. They defend their studies like Professor Abaluck did. I commend him for that.

Here’s why:

Image

I pointed out that the data they used in their study was flawed. Any honest scientist would say “Thank you! We will retract our paper.” Anders did the opposite. He ignored me and asked how to block me. Only someone who is corrupt would do that.

So now, here is the evidence for the world to see. Honest scientists do not behave this way when shown they are wrong.

Andrew Wakefield was right: vaccines cause autism.

Professor Anders Hviid and his colleagues published a paper A Population-Based Study of Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Vaccination and Autism in 2002 in NEJM that has been widely cited by others (over 1,000 other papers) as strong evidence that vaccines don’t cause autism.

Hviid and his colleagues chose a study design that was designed to look credible but obscure any signal. So when they found no signal they could claim victory, that there was “no association.”

But the real meaning of what they found is that “the study design we choose is unable to find a signal.” That can either mean:

  1. The methodology was inappropriate to find a signal

  2. The data was corrupted

  3. There were confounding factors such as a change in reporting requirements that obscured a signal

  4. There is no signal

In Hviid’s case, the first three were true.

When I asked Harvard Professor of Epidemiology Martin Kulldorff why he thinks vaccines don’t cause autism, this is the paper he cites because it is “gold standard data.”

Nope. No sir. It was proven the data was unreliable.

This key paper, that is relied on by over 1,000 other papers, is deeply flawed because:

  1. they never looked at the best metrics designed to find a signal

  2. because the underlying data was later found to be inaccurate

  3. because it overstates his conclusion. The study didn’t prove there is no link. It just proved that the methodology he used to try to find a signal was flawed as noted in the Letters section of his article. In short, the paper shows that the authors didn’t find a signal. They didn’t find a signal because 1) they didn’t look for the most obvious way to find the signal, 2) the data was flawed, and 3) the methods they did use were not sensitive enough

  4. There were confounding factors such as a change in reporting requirements that obscured a signal

  5. The conflicts of interest were never disclosed

In short, just because you didn’t find a signal doesn’t mean there is no signal. It just means you couldn’t find one. Get it?

Professor Hviid refuses to show us the underlying data or defend his study. Even after I offered him a $25,000 incentive to do so.

I wanted to ask Professor Hviid some questions about his study such as:

  1. Can we see the data? Why not? Why is it a secret? Could it be that you are hiding something?

  2. Wouldn’t this paper showing the underlying data you used is flawed invalidate your results? If not, why not? Why didn’t you retract your study when you learned this?

  3. Why didn’t you look at autism diagnoses relative to the time of MMR vaccination in your study? This would be the most sensitive measure. I found that diagnoses in the week after MMR vaccination is 5X greater than the week before vaccination. What did you find when you looked at that? Is that why you are hiding the data from us?

  4. How can you explain this 1998 paper in Pediatrics that shows a very clear link between vaccines and ASD? How can brain injury be vaccine dependent? How can there be a spike at 8/9 days after the measles vaccine only? How do you explain why that is statistically significant and no spike for the mumps and rubella vaccine? Why does the pertussis vaccine have a shorter time to symptoms (less than 7 days)? Doesn’t the fact that different vaccines (even though given at the same ages) have a dramatically different side effect profile mean the vaccines cause brain injury? If not, what is the more likely explanation?

  5. Why didn’t you and your co-authors reveal your clear conflicts of interest?

  6. Why didn’t they talk in the paper about the changing of the autism reporting rules in Denmark.

  7. Why would the CDC go to Denmark to do an autism study? They have 100% reported data in Medicare.

  8. Why did you ignore my request to supply the underlying data?

  9. Who else validated the data after the paper came out?

  10. Why was this method really the best way to detect causality? Why not look at the time the parent first noticed the autism relative to the nearest date of vaccination? If vaccination is not causal, this will be a flat line.

  11. Why did you seek to block me when I started asking questions about your paper? Is that what someone with nothing to hide does?

  12. Can you comment on this presentation regarding the conflicts of interest?

  13. I gave you an opportunity to comment on this article and provide corrections before I published it. Did you find anything wrong? If so, why didn’t you say anything?

  14. Shouldn’t the paper acknowledge that one of the co-authors, Poul Thorsen, M.D, is wanted by the US DOJ for fraud? He’s on the MOST WANTED list. And how is it that they can’t extradite him? I have a lot of questions I’d like to ask about how much you knew about this and what role he played in the research and why he’s on the MOST WANTED list.

  15. Why would the CDC do this? They have VSD and Medicaid data. Why go offshore? Why not just publish the VSD and Medicaid data? Why not just give Brian Hooker access to VSD and have him fail to find a signal? Easy. Fast. No paper required.

In short, his paper isn’t trustable and he’s acting in an evasive manner by refusing to supply the data or answer any questions.

Here’s the challenge I posted on Twitter:

If he’s telling the truth, he has nothing to lose and he’d be famous for showing the world that I’m wrong about vaccines causing autism.

How did he react to my challenge? By asking his followers how to block me! Check this out:

Since Anders refuses to supply the underlying data for his paper, refuses to answer any questions about his paper, and cannot explain what is wrong with the other papers, he loses the challenge.

He has literally thrown in the towel and admitted defeat.

Check this out. This happened right after I sent him my article for his review.

Is this what honest scientists do when they are challenged? Hide the evidence from public view? Nope.

Naturally, I hit “follow” to get access to his tweets. Don’t hold your breath on that one.

It failed all 7 elements of a sound hypothesis:

No luck. People wanted to, I asked them to DM me, none did.

He didn’t respond to any of the emails I sent him.

I thought you’d might enjoy reading them:

Professor Hviid,

I am a journalist in California. My friend Professor Martin Kulldorff speaks very highly of your work.

But I believe there is a very good chance that the truth may be the opposite of what you present in your study.

While we could debate this in the academic literature, if we did that it would take 10 years, and  I think it’s important we resolve this question ASAP. Don’t you agree?

Plus, we are not allowed to ask questions of the authors in papers.

Therefore, in the interests of getting to the truth ASAP,  please see this offer:

https://twitter.com/stkirsch/status/1662434565888016392?s=20

and this offer:

https://twitter.com/stkirsch/status/1662451275361910784?s=20

This is an opportunity for your research team to share an extra $50,000 in research funds which I’m sure you’ll put to good use.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Please respond to all via email and ALSO DM me on twitter (@stkirsch).

Also, can you tell me where I can download the record level data backing each study (the main autism study and the COVID safety study). We’d like to look at it.

Thanks!

There were many more emails. I won’t bore you. This guy is not an honest scientist.

You can contact John Stone who writes Age of Autism who has a lot more info on Anders.

I was sent so much information on these guys I could spend the next month or two writing about it.

If you’d like to write to Professor Hviid to let him know what you think, here is his contact info.

Also, I hear he’s looking for a big rock to hide under so if you have any suggestions, you can include that as well.

If you want to be creative, you could ship him a big rock with instructions on how to hide under it.

From Under A Rock | Denver CO

Professor Anders Hviid, a key author of what is arguably the most cited paper claiming vaccines don’t cause autism, has refused to defend his work, answer any of my questions, or supply me with the underlying data used in his study.

He knows if he did any of this, he would be discredited.

His paper is wrong and should be retracted. The underlying data is flawed and he has refused to acknowledge that. He never even did the subgroup analysis looking for the odds of an autism diagnosis 14 days before the shot vs. 14 days after the shot.

He has conflicts of interest that were not disclosed in his paper.

When a scientist runs away from legitimate questions and data requests like this, it generally means only one thing: the study is deeply flawed.

Is there any credible scientist who will defend this deeply flawed study? I think not.

So maybe it is time for the over 1,000 papers who relied on this flawed paper to note that in their studies? And maybe it’s time for some brave scientists to finally acknowledge the truth that vaccines can cause autism?

For every day we delay, another 1,000 kids will develop autism from vaccines. They should all be stopped. Now. Our kids will be healthier. We have a large medical practice over 25 years of health records comparing unvaccinated kids vs. vaccinated kids that proves this. There are simply too many studies that were done by honest brokers with no agenda that confirm the dangers of vaccination.

In fact, a simple twitter poll can tell people in seconds that vaccines cause autism. Try this on your own account and see what happens. You’ll always get the first result until the anti-anti-vaxxers attack your poll. Try it and see for yourself if you don’t believe me.

I will be coming out soon with an article summarizing the key evidence showing the vaccines cause autism. Professor Hviid can simply explain how the observations are consistent with his conclusion. That will be most entertaining!

BREAKING: The US COVID mitigation measures resulted in 23X higher COVID deaths

On May 22, 2023, I offered a $2,500 reward for anyone to give me the names of more than 5 Amish people in Lancaster, PA (which is the world’s largest single community of Amish people with over 45,000 people) who died from COVID.

Nobody could do that. I got a few names. And nobody could name anyone under 50 years old who was suspected of dying from COVID. The best anyone could do was come up with 5 names, 52 years of age and older, mostly very old people.

In other words, the Amish didn’t do anything to protect against getting COVID: no lockdowns, no vaccinations, no masks, no social distancing, no mandates, no school closures, nothing. If they got sick, they used ivermectin and other methods that were not recommended by the CDC or FDA.

90% of the Amish have been infected by COVID, yet only 5 of the Amish might have died from COVID.

This means their overall COVID infection fatality rate (IFR) for all ages is .011% and for under 50, their IFR is 0%. For >60, their IFR=.044% which is 23X lower than the surrounding community.

The US <60 IFR is .09% and <70 IFR is .18% from the Ioannidis paper.

Let’s assume the Amish population in Lancaster, PA has 22% who are 60 or older (I used this source; there could be a better source).

Of 45,000 Amish people, that means around 10,000 over 60 and 35,000 under 60.

Over 90% of the Amish got infected.

So we have:

  1. The IFR for those <60 was 1 in 31,500 infected=.003%.

  2. The IFR for those <70, was 3 in 34,355=.009%.

  3. The IFR for those >60 was 4 in 9,000=.044%.

Now compare with the stats in the rest of Lancaster, PA. We’ll even give them the benefit of the doubt by restricting the time range to March 17, 2021. And to give them further benefit of the doubt, we’ll assume 100% of 545,000 residents were infected.

The article says this:

COVID-19 has been devastating to Pennsylvania seniors, with nine out of every 10 fatalities among those 60 and older. In Lancaster County, 96% of COVID-19 fatalities as of March 17 — 926 of 968 — have been people aged 60 or older.

So the IFR for under 60 would be 968-926= 42 deaths.

Let’s assume 90% in Lancaster County were infected and 80% are under 60. This will give this group the lowest IFR possible for us to compare with the Amish. So we’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. So 500,000 non-Amish, 400,000 under 60, 90% infected is 360,000 and 42 deaths in the 360,000 under 60= .011%. So the death rate was around 4X higher but the numbers are too small for the Amish to really get an accurate handle on this.

For the over 60, we can calculate a more accurate IFR ratio.

926 of 100,000 non-Amish of which 90% infected gives an IFR for >60 of 926/90,000=1% which is not unexpected given that the Ioannidis paper showed 0.506% at 60–69 years. So by adding people over 69, we’d expect a higher IFR which is what we got here.

But the big problem of course is that for the over age 60 IFR:

The Amish over 60 years old had an IFR which was 23X lower than others in the same county.

In short, the Amish died at a 23X lower rate, despite the fact that they didn’t vaccinate, mask, social distance, lock down and they eschewed western medical care to treat COVID.

Normally, the health authorities can completely hide the real statistics on the number of unvaccinated people and the people who have died from COVID. Nobody would ever know.

But with the Amish there is no place to hide. It’s all in full public view for everyone to see.

The community of unvaccinated Amish is large enough to have good numbers and yet small enough that there is no place to hide the deaths. They are the “Goldilocks” for COVID mitigation: not too small, not too big, but just the right size. You can easily verify the deaths. And since virtually everyone was infected early in the pandemic where people died with a telltale “progressively harder to breathe” respiratory condition, COVID deaths were recognizable by everyone.

So there is no way to attack this.

Nor can anyone claim that the Amish have a protective gene that protects them from COVID. 90% were infected. The DoD has been studying the Amish for more than 50 years now. If there was a protective gene, they would have found it by now.

The Amish did nothing more than provide us with statistics that are publicly verifiable.

On the other hand, the US health authorities in every state and country deliberately kept the vaccine-death records from public view, providing only summary data.

You can’t get linked death-vaccine record-level data from any state or federal government anywhere in the world: they all refuse to produce them. No exceptions.

I talked to one of my State Senators about sponsoring a bill for more than an hour and he said only that he would “think about it.”

After I asked our State Epidemiologist Erica Pan if she believed in data transparency of public health data and she stopped answering my emails at that point.

Nobody will let any of us in to inspect the records either.

It’s just not allowed for anyone to see the data and learn the truth.

We are all supposed to trust them.

Sometimes I get lucky and get leaked data in my mailbox. What little data I was able to get from public health records showed that the COVID vaccines are killing people. The slope of deaths was supposed to go down after vaccination, not up.

Check out this article: New Israeli Data: No Known Covid Deaths in Healthy People Under 50.

The unvaccinated Amish had no deaths under 50 regardless of health condition!

Simply post a link to your Substack or blog with your IFR calculations.

I really can’t wait to read the blogs from David Gorski, Susan Oliver, Dorit Reiss, Debunk the Funk, and others!

I predict they will all be “hand-waving” arguments that dismiss the data. They never actually have any evidence behind their arguments.

Or they’ll ignore this because it’s simply too hard to attack.

There will be no math in their rebuttals, just a lot of hot air.

If you are a fact checker who works for mainstream media, this is the story of the decade on how everything they had us do was unnecessary and made things worse.

Just give me a call on my cell phone. It’s easy to find my number. We can have a nice discussion that both of us will record.

Thanks to the Amish, we now know that the entire pandemic response was a disaster. Collectively, these measures increased COVID deaths by 23X.

It was never necessary to turn the country upside down to respond to the COVID virus.

Not only were all the mitigations (vaccines, masks, shutdowns, social distancing, hospital treatment programs with remdesivir, school closures, school masking, forced vaccinations, …) unnecessary, but the mitigation measures recommended by the CDC made deaths from 23X higher than they ever needed to be.

The story of the Amish is very compelling evidence that nobody has been able to “explain away” with evidence backing their “explanations.”

The fact checkers will avoid fact checking this article. If they do fact check it, they won’t call me on the phone. I’m happy to work with them on this if they call me on the phone and talk to me. I’ll provide all my sources. Any fact checker can easily get my number. But they won’t do that because they are afraid of the facts.

We’d have been way better off if we just used early treatments when people got sick as the only countermeasure.

Maybe next time the CDC should listen seriously to those people who disagree with them before making their next healthcare recommendation? Their “public input” sessions are a joke, they never respond to my emails asking them to explain any of the data, and they block my emails.

Will the CDC ever admit they screwed up and should have just recommended early treatment with ivermectin, vitamin D, nasal irrigation with povidone iodine, etc? Probably not in my lifetime, unless RFK Jr. gets elected President.

So I thought it was important for you to know what a disaster the public health recommendations were because the mainstream media, medical community, and your elected representatives in Congress are simply never going to let you know.

COVID vaccines have likely caused over 25,000 new cases of multiple sclerosis (MS)

Multiple Sclerosis Treatments | LV Rehabilitation | West Sussex

A paper abstract that appeared on the WHO website created quite a stir because it showed the biological mechanism for how COVID vaccines can induce multiple sclerosis.

Note: the link takes you to a “fact check” proving the abstract was on the WHO website because the WHO removed it after people noticed it.

What the paper didn’t say is how common this is or whether it is causal. It certainly looks causal, but causality requires more than just biological plausibility.

In this article, I’ll show you:

  1. How you can estimate the number of cases (over 25,000)

  2. How you can prove that all 5 causality criteria are satisfied

This also shows the CDC is corrupt that they are hiding this information. They could have easily done the same research I did and verified all five causality requirements were satisfied. Are you surprised they didn’t do this?

The observations (in VAERS and in the papers cited below) cannot be explained any other way.

If someone has a more plausible explanation for the 28X increase in reporting rates in VAERS, I’m all ears (for symptoms unrelated to the vaccine, reporting rates in the queries are comparable).

Here are three examples:

  1. A rare presentation of undiagnosed multiple sclerosis after the COVID-19 vaccine

  2. First manifestation of multiple sclerosis after immunization with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine

  3. The new paper itself (which appears to be unfindable now), but see the Dr. Been video

Image

Dr. Been did an excellent video on this paper (when it was still on the site) which everyone interested in this subject should watch because it explains the biological plausibility for how this happens.

Even if the paper disappears, you cannot unring the bell. We now know it is plausible.

Here there are 28X more cases of MS for the COVID shot compared to the flu shot. That’s a problem. That doesn’t happen by chance; the absolute counts are too big (it’s a 16-sigma rise). See the section on ear infections and you’ll see what the VAERS counts look like for an event that is unrelated to vaccines.

As you can see, there are 100X more cases of myocarditis for the COVID shot vs. the flu shot which most people get every year (this is why I included from 2015 onwards). Wow. Isn’t that amazing? Some people (like “fact checkers”) thinkVAERS is junk, yet you can see the signal, can’t you?

Here the counts for ear infections are only slightly elevated in the COVID vaccine (15) vs. the flu vaccine (11). While it might be true that flu and COVID are elevating ear infections, that would require more investigation. The important thing here is the # of reports are comparable for flu and COVID for this symptom which we think is not elevated by vaccines.

The Bradford Hill criteria is widely recognized for establishing causality.

If all 5 Bradford Hill criteria are satisfied, you have causality.

From the insights from this new paper, we have biological plausibility. Even though the paper is gone, the Dr. Been video explains the mechanism. You cannot unring the bell by making the paper “go away.”

When we add in the VAERS queries above, we have all 5 causality criteria satisfied.

Don’t take my word for it. I’m just a misinformation superspreader. Verify it yourself by going down the checklist.

VAERS is under-reported by a factor of 41 for very serious injuries.

Less serious events where someone doesn’t die are reported much less often, e.g., an under-reporting factor of 100 is reasonable.

So 273*100 gives a rough estimate of 27,300 cases.

The reason we don’t have a better system for this (full transparency of anonymized records) is because the drug companies like it this way because if you don’t like the VAERS results you can say the system is “unreliable.” The anti-anti-vaxers rely on this hand-waving argument when it supports their narrative.

The background rate of new MS cases is about 10,000 per year. I suspect that other vaccines may be helping drive this as well.

If you want to “fact check” this article, simply show with evidence which Bradford Hill criteria is not satisfied.

Apparently, a lot of people commented on Dr. Been’s video that they now have an explanation for why they got MS after the shot. So it’s not rare at all.

COVID vaccines have likely caused over 25,000 cases of MS.

The CDC refuses to acknowledge the linkage even after the mechanism was shown.

Nor will they engage in any dialog about this or any other of the 770 safety signals in VAERS, including death.

That’s the way science works today.

But now you know the truth.

If you got MS after getting a COVID vaccine, it’s more likely than not caused by the vaccine, especially if it develops within 30 days after getting the shot.
