RFKJr.: We're On the Verge of Identifying the Cause of the Autism Epidemic
To be honest, I think he came into office having a strong idea of what he believes the cause is.
We'll see if he can prove it.Health "experts" claim there is no epidemic, just increased "awareness" of autism and therefore increased diagnosis. We'll see. If it does turn out that Kennedy can prove his case, and it turns out the government allowed or even curated this epidemic for political reasons, there will be absolute hell to pay. I'm skeptical, just because vaccines are tested a lot, and supposedly, the tests say they're "safe." But then, we've learned an awful lot about Big Pharma's "tests" and the self-dealing of FDA officials who hope to one day work for Big Pharma for the high six-figures.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., on Tuesday confirmed to President Donald Trump that his department is still on track to publish information identifying "interventions" that are contributing to a rise in autism. Kennedy first announced a joint research effort to find the root causes of autism in April as part of the Trump administration's "Make America Healthy Again" mission. One-in-36 children have autism spectrum disorder, according to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report in 2020. Trump also established a commission in February that would look at everything from the rates of autism and asthma in children to how much medicine is being prescribed to children for ADHD or other conditions. The update comes after Trump asked Kennedy how the research was going during a Cabinet meeting at the White House, according to The Hill. "We are doing very well," Kennedy said. "We will have announcements as promised in September, finding interventions, certain interventions, now that are clearly almost certainly causing autism. And we're going to be able to address those in September."

Health "experts" claim
There's the biggest problem right there, and RFK, Jr. is just reinforcing it. Albeit with a different set of "experts."

Finding "the cause" of a complex thing like autism is fraught with danger. It's probably not a single condition, but rather a basket of conditions that may, or may not, have similar causes.
And counting on biomedical research to find the causes is also problematic. It is famously full of shit. Which studies will RFK Jr. pick?

Bullshit. The numbers don’t lie, nor do the many people who have no prior evidence of disease in their family history.
Be prepared to hear how monied interests, including pharma, and the food lobby along with people in Congress and the FDA have put lining their pockets ahead of your children’s health.

Autism, dunno. Maybe we'll see.
But very very very difficult to believe the pediatric vaccine schedule - and probably most of the medication approach to young people, especially the behavioral stuff like ADD or whatever it's called - are scientifically justified, or that there is ironclad empirical evidence of benefit.
Seems everyone is obsessed with harm, and elaborate global schemes to do this or that.
But the standard for all vaccines, and all medication, at all levels but especially for normal healthy young people, should be much higher than just "no harm."

Small sample, sure. But enough anecdote becomes data.

IDK- I've spent a good part of my life working with folks with autism (including my son- moderate to severe, non-verbal). I've heard it all- thimerosol, etc. I think it's more likely just awareness. Everyone always had that "weird" uncle, who stayed his entire life with his parents, didn't make eye contact, etc. I think it mostly just wasn't labeled in the past when it wasn't that severe.

Hell, medical research "vetting" has been pencil whipped for years.
Remember, the Johnson administration era, eggs are bad for you?
Look at out "food pyramid".
The real conundrum is why everyday GP's, who knew better, decided to not speak up. Prolly same reason FIB agents didn't, either.
A real lack of moral courage nowdays. It ain't purty.

Childhood vaccines are NOT tested a lot.

Posted by: Bach In Black at August 26, 2025 05:33 PM (KY9hS)
Who would give their child up to research anything that could ruin them, like shooting them up with experimental "vaccines?" Of course they are not tested.
My son had to have all vaccines before they would let him out of Guatemala. Problem was, he was not even six months old yet. Then, of course, he had to have them all over again when "age appropriate" in order to go to school.
I can't say for certain that he wasn't affected by that. He has more than one mental health issue, not the least that he scores very high on the psychopathy test charts. Complete lack of empathy? Is that on the spectrum? How about overwhelming addictions, lying, stealing, etc? How would you know?

Completely anecdotal, but here we go:
I met a couple 20+ years ago that had a 11 or 12 year old boy. They told a heart-breaking story of the child being completely normal until around 2 (?, I'm not sure--its been awhile) when they took him to get his routine shots for that age.
He was never the same afterwards. At the time I met them, he was an 11 year old body wrapped around a 2 year old "inside". He would watch "Road Runner" cartoon and loop it to see/hear the theme song over and over. He was freakishly strong for his age, but couldn't speak clear words. He didn't do anything 11 year-olds do. He was 2 inside...likely for life. It was heartbreaking.

When I was a kid, there were vaccines for seven diseases on the US vaccine schedule. Now there are seventeen.
Do vaccines cause Autism? I used to laugh at the idea. Now I'm not sure. The drug companies have reportedly been playing fast and loose with their protocols and protocol designs.

I think RFKjr has questioned the number of vaccines given to children by the age of 5. My son was born in 1979 and my daughter in 1982--and they didn't have near the number of vaccines kids get now. I'm also a bit wary about the formulations and current testing; my son had the old formulation of the DTP shot and had a very bad reaction to it at 18 months.

The "testing" they (Big Pharma & the FDA) claim has been done on childhood vaccines is one huge deceptive cover (i.e., LIE).

Those who believe those "tests" are anywhere near sufficient to protect our children from adverse effects must have also been suckered when Big Pharma & the FDA trotted out a whole raft of lies on the COVID jabs.

32 When I was a kid, there were vaccines for seven diseases on the US vaccine schedule. Now there are seventeen.
Do vaccines cause Autism? I used to laugh at the idea. Now I'm not sure. The drug companies have reportedly been playing fast and loose with their protocols and protocol designs.
Posted by: bonhomme at August 26, 2025 05:40 PM (lIio7)
At issue in medicine is usually everyone tests for their "one thing"...and few test for "all the things".
Like I'd bet every vaccine individually tested safe. But did anyone actually run a test on the series? Likely not, b/c testing on 3 and 6 month olds in clinicals would be seen as scandalous.
My kids got all their childhood vaxes, but I admit, I was a mom who delayed some when it was like "yeah, that's too many at once"...I figured I had 5 years, so I used them.

I hope they do find the cause, but I also hope that leads to a cure. Most of you know, my youngest has autism. I would give just about anything for her not to deal with this, not deal with kids thinking she is weird, not deal with being afraid to have friends because she doesn’t want to be teased and she knows she is different. She is a neat kid, and she doesn’t deserve this.
I don’t know if the vaccines are the cause, but I do know she hit every single milestone, many early, until she was 3.5 and it was right then her emotional regulation fell off a cliff. Not slowly, but with a big bang. She was picked out as a very strong potential ballet dancer at a very young age. That just stopped. She is currently in a walking boot to undue toe walking. It’s not been fun for her.

Farmer Bob, to your point, my son had some learning issues in elementary school. We knew what caused it: heart defects and not having the right amount of blood oxygenation until after 3 major surgeries over 3 years. His learning was delayed.
But no. Each *public school* teacher decided he was on the autism spectrum and had ADHD, and needed drugs blah blah blah. What “cured” him was a regular private school with better teachers. I wonder how many other kids are regularly labeled (even if unofficially) as having autism, etc. by non-medically trained teachers who just can’t understand how their instruction style doesn’t work with some kids?

And even if it's not the vaccines themselves, why would anyone think there could not be, would never be, any effect at all pumping 17 different drugs into a growing baby?

There are multiple causes for autism.
This is going to sound like BS, and you should probably take it as such, but I met a respected man who visited a clinic in Canada where the (senior, male) residents all developed autism.
If the common factor among them ever comes out (and it's not vaccines), there will be a bloodbath, possibly literal.

Seriously speaking - I'm a neurologist, although I don't work with children - this could be great news; however, I believe the bulk of this epidemic is due to overdiagnosing, fraudulent (patient care and drugs to be sold) or otherwise (ignorance, following trends, conditions with a fashionable name as in Asperger's). You name ADHD: this disease simply does not exist (chronic fatigue another one that is questionable at the very least).

74- that's an excellent point. There's no blood test for autism (although there are some chromosomal disorders that are high co-incident, like fragile x). In the end, it's diagnosed through a set of presenting symptoms. Symptoms which are also present in many other cases (like lack of oxygen from near drowning/suffocation, among others).

The use of currently used birth control pills hasn’t been time studied in any reliable, scientific way. Especially for associations with diseases like cancer, or the effects on children that users eventually had. I have known women who have no genetic markers for disease and have lived a healthy life who had one time used birth control, that later on developed conditions or issues in their children that isn’t in either parents genetics. Very unscientific but the more you read about this stuff the more it seems it’s happening to a lot of women. But that gets hand waived off by pharmaceutical and so called researchers doing these studies so they can get the next big grant from pharma. I don’t believe any of them. Maybe by making things more transparent that will change.

Vaccines, and childhood vaccines in particular, have special legal protections. Most of the incentive to get the Covid vax onto the childhood schedule was to gain said protection. And make money. Lot's of money. Given that, ain't no vax gonna fail a test.

Wonder if women having children past 30 has much to do with it. It would not surprise me a bit. Strikes me that the optimum age for childbearing is 18-30. But our culture now demands women have "careers" and fun before settling down.

> Doctors also prescribe medicines without checking the reactions of other medicines being prescribed.
Every Doctor I've ever had asks for a complete list of all the medications I'm taking. They do that to look for medications that don't play nicely together. They also check the list before prescribing new meds. My pharmacist also checks for contraindicated meds before filling prescriptions.
If your Doctor doesn't do this, find a new one.

Daily Beast: Trump Swallows RFK’s Theory Autism Is Being ‘Artificially’ Spiked by Vaccines. In his first term, it was 3 crazy stories every day. Now it’s 3 crazier stories every hour.
(Tons of arguing about whether this is a distraction from Epstein, or his authoritarian takeover if the government.)
Don’t forget it all started from the Supreme Court allowing Trump on ballots in the first place when his taking office again would be a clear violation of the fourteenth amendment. That was the first and greatest outrage, because it enabled all the others you mentioned.
Taking medical advise from a heroin addict with a worm in his brain? The whole trump administration is a clown show.
During the vp debates, JD said they are going to use common sense and not listen to “experts.” These people are a lost cause
Andrew Wakefield has done irreparable harm to public health, and should be in prison for fraud, and for causing billions in research funding to be siphoned away from legitimate use in order to continue to fight against the misinformation triggered by his work.
Autism is just easier to diagnose due to better medical tech.

I would think it would have been obvious. Vaccines act like the immune system has infinite capacity and is the Maytag repairmen every day…just waiting around for something to do.
What if instead, we lived in a world where every day we gave children essentially the same sugar solutions we give bacteria in Petri dishes, and where we know now there are as many bacteria in the body as cells. What if every day the immune system is already busy with the detritus left by these organisms…and then we retask its priorities via vaccines? Allowing the bacteria…and more importantly their biofilm leftovers…to proceed unchecked?
Especially via the dental path to skull and brain?
How well do nerve paths work when a varnish starts coating things, or prevents aged-based connections from happening as quickly as normal? Or happening at all?

There's pretty good evidence that at least some autism is genetic.
Sometimes I wonder if there's a kind of "self-selection" going on with so much of the population going to college. The type of study and testing required to get in maybe selects for certain traits driven by genes that can lead to autism when combined in offspring.
Just a guess.
From what I've read, I pretty much doubt the vaccine theory. ESP as a universal cause.

The other thing with declaring kids as having autism is that if this is included in an IEP, then it opens up required additional resources. Think this was also why they kept pressuring us to accept that our son was on the spectrum (more classroom assistance).
As others have said: two things can be true, both teachers using autism to label different students that take up their time as well as a legitimate rise in autism.

I'm of the opinion there are two things contributing to the rise in autism.
1. The vaccine schedule has been pushed down to the point Doctors might as well be injecting vaccines while the baby is still in the womb.
2. The proliferation of vaccines injected at a very young age.

Horrible, sad story. I was just running around the internet trying to find out about the history of autism, and the summaries don't indicate anything like that type of suddenly arrested development in the literature or in historical artefacts. Interesting.
--------
Sure, and because it was so long ago I don't remember whether the couple were declaring it was "autism". I just remember that they were blaming the shots the kid took around the age of 2, and that this kid was *locked* into the mind of a 2-year old, even though his body was 11 and reasonably fit and strong. He could make sounds, but couldn't speak. He could smile. He could laugh. He could throw fits and cry. But he didn't really do anything other than be passive (loved to ride on the golf cart with his father). He couldn't BE in life, he was just locked down like a 2-year old kid.

More important than BC was antibiotics. These diseases could make women especially infertile and thus ruin their lives.

On another note, the pill certainly fucks up women's hormones and probably makes 80% of them crazy. (I have no explanation for the other 20%)

I'm skeptical of the vaccine theory causing autism, but I'm not skeptical that we're being lied to about vaccine safety. I think deep down every doctor in this space knows it has risk but they're willing to push the narrative because they think it's better than the alternative.
I mean if a peanut can kill certain kids, of course a certain part of the population can have a bad reaction to a vaccine.

But no. Each *public school* teacher decided he was on the autism spectrum and had ADHD, and needed drugs blah blah blah. What “cured” him was a regular private school with better teachers. I wonder how many other kids are regularly labeled (even if unofficially) as having autism, etc. by non-medically trained teachers who just can’t understand how their instruction style doesn’t work with some kids?

And this is so bizarre a teacher thinks they can dx. With my daughter, it was days of testing, with neurologists, with developmental psychologists and psychiatrists, with occupational therapists. It was then and only then she was actually diagnosed - and we had to pay for it all, which was fine, we wanted to know. But it wasn’t cheap. Later, we had to go through a similar battery of testing for her dyslexia, dyscalculia and dysgraphia. She got the mother load. But that is fairly normal with those who are functioning and have autism but are not the savants people imagine those with autism to be. My daughter has a normal iq, it’s average. Her sisters have well above average iqs. It’s just frustrating to me as a mom, because I do wonder about how and why.

I have zero expertise… my common sense tells me most of what is diagnosed as “on the spectrum” these days is simply a variety of personalities kids are born with; some kids are more naturally awkward than others. Now severe autism like Dustin Hoffman in the 80s Tom Cruise movie or kids who just don’t interact… I also think that’s mostly genetic.
So I’ll need a lot of conviction proof to believe it’s vaccine related

I suspect your hormones know if you have been having kids all along or if you are shocking a rather older and worn out system late in child-bearing years.
I have no idea if that affects autism. I know for a fact that it raises the chances of old eggs causing Down's Syndrome.
A woman who has already had successful healthy pregnancies is more like to continue to do so even if she is in her 40's. Not so for someone who starts then.
In the good old pre-birth-control days, women had children well past 30.

Remember Thalidomide? It was within a red nether hair of being approved in the USA. Except for one gal who saw something hinky in the test data. She was the lone holdout under enormous pressure. She stuck to her guns, and was ultimately proven correct.
I fear we don’t have that caliber of person in our regulatory agencies any longer.

The question is: have all (40+) vaccines on the schedule of recommended childhood vaccines been tested as a group - or just individually? I'm 29(ish). I had 4 vaccines when I was a child. Period. Today - children up to 18 months are vaccinated for 20 things - and then another 20 things up to age 18. I don't believe for a minute that we can bombard little bodies with that many doses of vaccines in such a short period without adverse effects. And the fact is - nobody has run that test. Only the individual tests.

157 I just hope there isn't another ADHD medication production throttle. That was rough. If there's a cause found for ADHD, I'd love to hear it. I know it's at least genetic because my dad essentially has it, my brother and sister have it, six of my nine nephews have it, and my daughter has it.

Not to minimize the symptoms that are encompassed by ADHD, but entire families die of carbon monoxide poisoning, too. Fishermen's families get mercury poison.

I worked with developmentally disabled people in the early 1990s. Autism was "in" at the time. We had clients who were in their 40s who had been diagnosed as simply "retarded" their entire lives -- suddenly they were "autistic" and their doctors were trying out the latest meds on them.
Then, in the 2010s, I worked with a lot of teenagers. I started to notice that moms would no longer introduce their kids as a star athlete, or "gifted," or some winner of some other thing, like parents used to do -- now it was "Hello. My name is Dianne. This is my son Jack. He's dual diagnosed ADHD and autistic."
They'd have bumper-stickers announcing that they were "mother of an autistic child" and crap.
I realized that this is now what the moms were proud of. They were no longer bragging that they had raised some super-kid, but that they were put-upon and super-mom for being stuck with this kid with "special needs." And, if the kid didn't know how to behave in public, if they had never been disciplined or taught how to deal with life....well, it wasn't the parent's fault, it was the ADHD or autism.

The FDA announced last week that it has suspended the license for French drugmaker Valneva’s chikungunya vaccine, saying that continued administration of the vaccine to the public would pose a danger to health. This was based on serious safety concerns that ws approved by the FDA in 2023. Before suspension, it was recommended for Americans traveling to areas where active chikungunya outbreaks are occurring. The FDA said that there has been one death from encephalitis directly attributable to the vaccine, and over 20 reportable adverse events that were consistent with chikungunya-like illness, with 21 hospitalizations and 3 deaths.

ADHD is not a real thing. It is pressure to get your kids to "behave," meaning do something they are not capable of at that particular age. It is coercion.
Boys need to run around and expend energy. Adults need to do that too, they just prefer not to. When homeschooling the boy, I used to time him running around the block and THEN have him read his assignments. Otherwise, we were both wasting our efforts. It ain't rocket surgery, folks.

There could be multiple causes. My son ran a high fever after the 18 month DTP, and stopped verbalizing at all, except for a squeal when he wanted something. It took until he was three before he started using words again, and still needed speech therapy at five. That's a reaction that probably wouldn't be classified as autism but another child could have a reaction that would be. Given the large number given by five now, it could be simply the number given in a relatively short period of time. That was one of RFKjr's questions.

I’ll just reiterate my experience with my autistic son. He was perfectly normal, even advanced, at 18 months. He got the MMR shot and a few days later passed out with a high fever. He basically got reset back to newborn level and started developing again very slowly and with autistic behaviors. Thankfully he is only moderately autistic and can talk and take care of his basic hygiene but has the typical stimmy, echolalia and other classic autistic issues.

Four old granddaughter has speech problems. She had speech therapy for a year, her speech slightly improved.
However,she almost 5 y/o and her speech is still not what it should be. She is already being teased by her friends for her speech problems..
Her parents were required to have the killer shots when daughter-in-law was pregnant with our beautiful smart darling.
This was during the height of the chink flu fiasco. They had no choice about taking the killer shot. They were denied access to the doctor's office and the hospital if they didn't comply.
There are lots of people who need to pay for the damage so many people have suffered from the fake vax.
Roast in hell.

There has to be an accounting, lots of people have to pay.

Now you know why they wanted to wait 50 years to release the test data. If this is what they did with covid I have no doubt they would hide an autism link with vaccines if one did exist.

I've been waiting for that for YEARS. Actually, I think the President Trump is vulnerable on the clot shot issue and the Dems could use it to "FIGHT! FIGHT!" Or whatever.
But the Dems were worse.
And society would be torn apart. I want so many comoanies, individuals and their bloodlines to be eliminated, it's not funny.

Just wondering if Autism is the new trendy AWFL thing. Gluten intolerance, transing kids, etc etc.
I know one family with four kids and somehow they are all autistic. Seems improbable to me.
Posted by: WitchDoktor at August 26, 2025 06:20 PM (hdPuQ)
Maybe not new, it started being trendy years ago. One of the overarching problems with sorting through this whole endeavor in any kind of sensible or sane fashion is the fact that having a kid with the disorder du jour became a fashion accessory, and continues to be so. An unfortunately there are plenty of health care providers who will throw aside any sort of rigorous evaluation for ideological purposes or just to make mom happy. So we potentially have a situation in which there are very real cases, but we're seeing a skewed populations because these things are also slapped on for clout or attention.

There is a strong correlation between infant febrile seizures (kid throws a fit during a high spike fever) with a sharp case of diarrhea, with development of autism symptoms.
These febrile seizures are linked to childhood vaccines, since the vaccine adjuvants are intended to create a severe immune response to sensitize the immune system to fragments of the viruses

No, the Covid virus is not “extinct”. It has mutated into something more benign. Viruses do not go away.
The “Spanish” Flu of 1918 is still around. You’ve almost certainly had it. N5H1 or whatever it is termed

There are more children who are unable to bathe, use the toilet and live without constant care now than there were 40 years ago. The number is not correlating with the increase in population, it is far greater than the number that would be expected if it was just the same percentage of the population.

I've said for the past few years that Trump needs to get ahead of this, and do a Mea Culpa. Admitting his error... that he trusted the wrong people... like he did with the DOJ, and VP Pence...
admit... ask forgiveness, then HAMMER the people who mislead.
Would be a winnah IMO.

Posted by: blake
We ate our share of junk food. There was an aluminum foil wrapped dingdong or a Twinkie in almost every brown bag lunch in grade school. There were baggies of potato chips. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. There were numerous trips to the corner store for Penny Candy. The biggest difference is we were active and burnt it off.

Absolutely and the numbers are huge. My example was just of the latest bad vaccine but by far not the worst which was the COVID vax. High number of miscarriages also in my area of pregnant women who were COVID vaxed because their doctors urged them to....heads should roll and I would personally like to see Fauci, et.al. be tried at the Hauge for crimes against humanity. I am so sorry about your father.

When I went to pick up my daughter from school in 2nd grade, and she was sitting alone on a bench while everyone else was playing, that was it. Adding on the crazy covid issues with school, I quit my exec job and homeschooled. She is doing way more than I was told she ever would as a result, but it is still not a happy ever after story.

I'm fearful something has been happened of late to damage genes in some reproduction age males and/or females. Also, if fetuses can be identified as likely autistic, many might become victims of abortion.
I see no where the number of children with Down Syndrome, Spinal Bifida now as compared to years ago, when there was a much smaller US population. (No, do not specifically point to mother or surrogate slightly older ages as a big factor.)
OTOH, all but the top of the line public schools & districts* seem to go out of the way to classify young children as being on the spectrum for +++ special education funding. (See Pennsylvania)
*Few of those children appear to require special education services - and those that do may be sent to other districts for OT, reading, etc. - so there are more quality academic and athletic programs available within those districts.

There are two factors likely for the increase in diagnosis.
1) expanded definitions of autism as well as increased awareness of these definitions coupled with secondary gain for being labeled as such.
2) Environmental factors that influence pre and post natal brain development.that have increased parallel to the increasing recognition of the diagnosis.
I’m not a strong believer in childhood vaccinations as one of these environmental factors.
I am a believer that the massive increase in the number of “recommended” childhood vaccinations is driven more by greed and duplicity than real science. I’m not a believer that they are good for kids at this level of intensity.
