John - use your real names - oh how I laughed ! if you had any interest in protecting the parents on here you would not even venure near that subject........
I dont suppose you have all the answers but you believe you have most of them, is that what you are saying ?
So then, show me your progress, through all the polite dialogue, articles and books have you made progress ? and if so great but my question is, in addition to your progress assuming you have made some, have you ever or do you ever intend to propose that the entire readership of AOA protest on the streets ? and if not why not ?
Tim Bolen's Gay Fantasy

This idea that you can accept some vaccines but not others is simply ridiculous. How on earth can you herd like accept that some may be safe.........just beggars belief at this point.
I am zero tolerance and arguably so should you all be and that would end the fragementation nonsense on here.
This wishy washy attitude is what is allowing this drama to persist.

Dan, I wonder if AOA aka you had put half as much energy into advertising the Protests at the CDC in Atlanta as you have in trying to find a common enemy in Tim Bolen then perhaps we would see some real activism no ?
The chap/pess who is Hans Litten/Sophie- good on yeh
because you all need to wake up.
Do some independent research on Controlled Opposition.
One Simple question, Why has AOA never to my knowledge organised a March/Protest ? I would attend, travel to, I have suggested it and been lambasted. AOA has an audience but does nothing with it other than continually fragment the discussion.
Stay on topic Dan -

SO SO disappointed -
if you had kids would you vaccinate them? REALLY ??
What about your Dog Dan would you vaccinate, perhaps the question needed to be a bit more personal for you ? That is a real question as I have personally convinced other dog owners to side step the vacs.
IMHO That was not a good interview. Its 100% abstinence from Vaccination there is no middle ground with this.
Who exactly were you advocating for there Dan ? Certainly not me or the vast majority of parents of vac injured (unless I am missing something)
Dan Olmsted on Canadian TV: "Vaccines Cause Autism."
Editor's Note: While Autism Speaks was flooding U.S. airwaves Thursday with their final craven capitulation -- "Vaccines do not cause autism. We urge that all children be fully vaccinated." -- I was on Canada's Sun News network delivering the opposite message. You can view the video ...
It is great to be invited to interview on this topic.
I find myself constantly trying to recall lots of facts, figures, journals, scientific research papers, dates, the names of Researchers, politicians, journalists etc so that when I get into dialogue with people who hold directly opposing views I can do a decent job of not only defending my position but stopping them in their tracks with facts.
It is a tough job but keeping those facts to hand is part of my life's work now as I am (and others like me are) constantly under attack.
Vox Interviews Olmsted on Vax
Editor's note: On Monday I got a polite e-mail. "My name is German Lopez. I'm a reporter with Vox.com. I'm putting together a story on the vaccine choice and education movement. I was hoping to talk to you about the movement, some of the thinking behind it, and what it seeks to accomplish." We...
I too have listened to both the Lindemans radio shows.
Jake appears to me to have uncovered something solid. Mark appears compromised by those recordings and with this issue there is no compromise.
I cant in earnest support Mark any further I dont believe he is on message with me and many other parents.
Weekly Wrap: Mark Blaxill on the Canary Party and Congress, Michael Specter on "Silly" Footnotes
By Dan Olmsted My friend, AOA colleague and co-author Mark Blaxill was on the Linderman Unleashed radio show on the Natural News Network this week. He and Curt Linderman Sr. talked about the Canary Party, of which Mark is chairman, the congressional hearing last year and another coming next mon...
I love Maureen's staying power, an example to us all!
We should organise a single day globally where we all wear the T-shirt and march to our Government HQ. Make the single heroic effort of Maureen's into a community effort to make an even bigger impact. Maureen alone will have saved countless people from vaccines and made many more question their actions educate themselves.
To make a bigger impact we should build on Maureen's incredible work and reach out even further.
Maurine Meleck: One Courageous Autism Grandmother
By Anne Dachel The one undeniable fact about the autism epidemic is that it's grossly under-reported in the media. Oh sure, news stories about autism are everywhere, but they seem to be saying the same thing: the U.S. is adjusting well to having hundreds of thousands of disabled children every...
I agree wholeheartedly with other posters....
This is a distraction from the real issue. All these studies just serves to water down the fact that Vaccines cause autism.
Makes me pretty cross when there is so much scientific and observational evidence supporting the very obvious cause of autism.
There may well be a bunch of other environmental triggers of contributory factors but dont ignore the elephant in the room.
Giving airtime to these studies suits government and Pharma- they want the mystery of autism to persist. There is no mystery.
Big old bunch of distraction !
Cathy Jameson On Labor Induction and Autism on Fox 5 DC
Thank you to Age of Autism's Cathy Jameson for her appearance on Fox 5 News DC last night to discuss the recent news that inducing labor could be related to autism. Cathy is a co-contributor to book The Thinking Moms' Revolution. And our favorite Sunday read here at AofA. Great job, Cathy. ht...
Lisa, how I chuckled :) But yes that would be super an infiltrator led investigation within Pharma.
Laura, no you are not the only one.
National Institute of Health aka Not In Hellschance of this study being done independently - IMHO.

John, thats me told then :)
I never intended to offend anyone here at AOA apologies if I have done so.
I want the best for my kids, extended family, those children at see at the park, supermarket, church, school, swimming pool who have been injured by vaccines. I want those responsible held to account.
That is all.
Weekly Wrap: Honestly.
By Dan Olmsted The death of my treasured colleague Helen Thomas last week reminded me of her very useful comment that if you want to be loved, don’t go into journalism. Not that I needed much reminding. Recently I’ve read that “lying is in Dan’s nature” (I read that on Age of Autism, beca...
A MOM, I hear you loud and clear and I am with you!
I have asked this question before, why cant this community come together. Its simple Vaccines cause Autism, lets march to the White house, 10 Downing street, we definitely have the numbers 1 in 50 some say 1 in 25..
If they can organise Global protests against Monsanto (a complex issue, a diverse community, stakes much lower)why can this community not wins the hearts and minds of the public.....in my view because the community is perpetually "kept" in a fragmented state.
There are other places now where people are congregating in big numbers and they manage to present a united front and single message "Vaccines Cause Autism"
Personal feelings dont really come into it.Its about our children.

I was over at Slate a day or two back.
I retired due to a similar situation to Victor Pavlovic.
I can tell you that they (they being the same old bloggers) do not like the story of the US Somalian refugee autism rates. They get pretty nasty about that.
It was an unbalanced article which led to the same old bloggers behaving like pack of mangy dogs. Perhaps they are on performance related pay ?
There is indeed mounting presure from those who dare to think for themselves.

Anne thank you for a great round up.
HealthMap should surely warrant a we are change petition as it is clearly a threat to democracy and freedom of speech ? Why are we the general population ok with this ?
The Gates are currently supporting mass vaccination in the Developing world using Mercury laden Vaccines, some vaccines are experimental at best (disgusting episode in Chad in December 2012/Jan 2013), They are manipulating the news, Gates Foundation Supports the Poverty Matters blog in the Guardian UK. They are now huge investors in both Monsanto and Cargill and driving the GMO agenda with gusto. And of course Billie boy has the misguided notion he is doing Gods work to top it off.
We need an online petition for the Health Map piece it has just gone too bloomin' far !

Steve White
You maybe dont personally know any parents of vaccine injured children. if you did you would know that no mainstream doctor wants to help, let alone record their experience and create some pretty bar charts with statistics. Once the parent discloses they think its related to a vaccine reaction or multiple vaccines, the doctors deny any link and you are on your own. If doctors collect and report the data as they should you would not raise your argument as it would be well and truely game over for vaccines.
One of the reasons this nightmare persists is because the data is deliberately not being collated. It is an utter disgrace.
The parents are finding each other in various communities, do you know there was a facebook community of over 19,000 parents who all knew "Proud parents of unvaccinated children ( the page was removed overnight with no explanation) It is certainly not a one in a million scenario.
Stanford U's Dr. Carl Feinstein Responds to Autism Questions
Gee, maybe next year they can march as Alzheimer's! By Anne Dachel On May 30, 2013, there was a piece on SCOPE, the Stanford University Medical School site, with the title, Director of Stanford Autism Center responds to your questions on research and treatment. The story highlighted the ...
Mercury is just the tip of the iceberg for me. Yes its a good place to start but what about Aluminium and all the other cr@p. I just this week had a set two with a family member who had a flu shot in pregnancy and she argued it was fine because it was mercury free- my view she should most definitely not had the shot despite it being mercury free.
The video is great but I am also constantly met with the view that even though the mercury is gone from Childhood vaccines Autism rates continue to rise, people try to imply it is something other than vaccines causing autism. Vaccines cause autism.
The mercury debate is accepted by at least some in the mainstream but all the other Cr@p in vaccines need a huge amount of focus and airing. My personal view is reject the whole damn lot- no compromise whatsoever, I am not alone.
I will share the video of course and I am a huge supporter of AOA. Just saying.
Help Make "How Mercury Triggered the Age of Autism" Go Viral
By Dan Olmsted Does everyone have nine minutes to spare to stop the autism epidemic? I am counting on it. Last weekend, we debuted a nine minute (ok, nine minute and eight second) video at Autism One. We also ran it at the top of our site, in a banner above our logo (where it still resides), and...
Good Job Nicholas ! I am so pleased to hear your wonderful story and hope you come back to speak again and share your progress. Keep telling your story as it is incredibly important and so many of us really want to hear all about it. Good wishes to you for your studies.
Autism One and Nicholas Glenski: Recovering From Autism And Telling The World
By Teresa Conrick In 2012 at Autism One, I met Nicholas Glenski, a young man who said he hoped to "go the distance" and one day, cure himself of autism. He was so enthusiastic and inspired by so many speakers last year that now one year later, he, himself was a speaker at Autism One -- and he...
Angus, I commented on Express article but twice my AOA link was altered but not other links, perhaps they are blocking links to AOA ?
That aside I was amazed that the article restored at least some balance to the debate....gave me a little hope actually.
Weekly Wrap: Yes, Blame Government For the Return of Measles
By Dan Olmsted The British media and medical establishment can't get over Andy Wakefield's gall when he claimed, in a post published here, that an outbreak of measles in Wales is squarely the fault of British health officials. Has the man no decency? At long last, has he no decency? Well, I c...
Jenny, John (25 y/o death)
My colleague read the initial headline on BBC News online which was initially something like First Measles Death, She sent in an extremely strong complaint shortly after which the headline changed to 'Swansea death man, 25, had measles" I dont honestly know if the two things were connected but what is clear is that the BBC are very happy to speculate on anything around this topic.
We nor the BBC had any idea at that point why the man was dead but that did not stop the BBC from drawing all kinds of conclusions.
The Media spin on this is an utter disgrace.
We just happened to see the ITV coverage of the parent of a autistic son who had refused and continues to refuse the MMR.
I was truly delighted to see even just one person on TV fighting the fight. It was a small triumph that one got through the disgusting Media/Government censorship net.
Dachel Media Update: Wales Measles
NEWS VIDEOS FROM WALES---Coverage on the measles outbreaks. ITV made an attempt at covering both sides of the MMR controversy, although it's clearly NOT BALANCED. Here a mother, seen with her severely autistic son, refuses to vaccinate her youngest child because of the vaccine damage she witne...
I salute you Isabella Thomas. You are a brave woman to have never given up or allowed others to change your course. It is you and others like you who will ensure victims of these atrocious crimes do not get marginalised further.
Your list of experts of course will have seen what the government powers have done to Dr Wakefield, alongside the atrocious treatment of parents of vaccine injured children by so many doctors and so called professionals. Others tell me that not all doctors know,realise, understand the vaccine problem ..... Ignorance by either parents or doctors is no longer a good enough excuse. Too many parents tell the same story, surely good science is about observation - but you need your eyes open to observe !!
Statement: Isabella Thomas Mother of 2 Lancet Study Children
Dr. Andrew Wakefield with the Thomas boys Statement by Isabella Thomas, mother of two boys who were part of the Lancet Study “It is now time for the truth to be told” I, as a parent of two children in the Lancet study, have had to speak out about the vicious attacks on Dr. Andrew Wakefield ...
And still the man came out fighting because there is nothing easier to fight for than the truth. I eagerly await an open debate.
Delighted to hear that folk are calling for single measles vaccines ...anything which show people are having doubts about MMR is very very good.
So pleased to see the Independent pick up Dr Wakefield's piece on AOA and was on the comment thread for while. I presume it got pulled because parent after parent told their story it was becoming hard to refute.
So much for freedom of speech in the UK.
UK Media is a disgrace, as is Salisbury.
Andrew Wakefield Responds on Camera to Wales Measles Outbreak
Dr. Andrew Wakefield responds to UK public health officials call for censorship on MMR vaccine safety debate, measles vaccine failure, and issues a further challenge for open debate (full transcript beneath). While he has been booked to appear on several media programs, all have cancelled just p...
Jake
I just dont know how you kept your cool, fair play to you !
He was just stumped and trying desperately to get you on the run. But for the fact that he had an audience who clearly were in support of his general views he would have fallen and not gotten backup again. Thanks for all you do.
Watch David Gorski Squirm!
By Jake Crosby Just go to the 1:14:57 mark to watch David Gorski struggle to respond to a question I posed to him at a talk he gave at a “skeptics” event in March. One Sunday in Virginia, I met the most prolific defamer the vaccine lobby has ever dumped on the blogosphere: David Gorski, MD, P...
As a fan of AOA I am totally anti vaccines on all levels. I don't believe I am alone.
Given that the BBC, Guardian, Telegraph, HuffPo and all UK news outlets are writing such scathing, factually incorrect and hateful articles someone needs to hit back. An offer of a live TV debate says this man aint backing down.
This debate is not about Dr Wakefield. In such a polarised debate the media have a focal point and a single man to demonise but it is us the parents who need to wade in.
I have just taken a call from a colleague this morning asking what they should do, to give the MMR to a 12 month old or not- I was so pleased to be able to stop just one more person from making the wrong choice. You all gotta speak out in whatever way you can.
We all have a role to play here. I am grateful to Dr Wakefield of course for his unwavering stance. Yet another person of great courage.
Andrew Wakefield: British Government Culpable for Measles Outbreaks
UK Measles Outbreaks Statement from Dr. Andrew Wakefield British Government is entirely culpable for measles outbreak In the wake of further media distortion, misrepresentation, and ignorance in relation to the measles outbreak in Wales, it is important to clarify some key facts. In 1998, f...
Kent,
Thank you for sharing this, as others have said, it was so well written. My niece was injured and two of my children have autoimmune issues.
Your courage gives me hope and inspires me to continue to speak out. You are managing to educate and inform those around you which is making a difference be very sure of that.
Reaction to Autism Action: The “Unofficial Letter of Reprimand”
