Autism, A Little Understood Disorder May Have Genetic Roots

Researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern have been able to genetically change mice so their behavior is similar to some people with autism.  The researchers hope their discovery will eventually lead to treatment for people with autism spectrum disorder.

Mice are genetically similar to people which is why geneticists such as Eric Lander study them. “We might think of ourselves as different than a mouse because we’re so much bigger and we think we’re so much smarter, but look inside, the organs are all the same.”

Obviously something happens to children’s genetic code to cause autism. How about 187 mcg of mercury before the tiny age of six months. The HepB the infants received on the day of their birth was only safe for a 300 lb. adult.
Why aren’t we (the people who are forced to inject these concoctions into our young) shown the video of the research done by Mady Hornig at Columbia University. When the mice were injected with per ratio of the vaccines given to the ninety’s infants, 33% displayed behavior disorders.
Shame on the lot of you for participating in ‘deceiving the nations’.
Measles, mumps, and chickenpox are nothing compared to diabetes, MS, ADD, ADHD, ODD, OCD, Parkinson’s, Lupus, Autism, arthritis, Alzheimer’s, Asthma, and the list goes on as the vaccines given too young, continue to destroy immune systems.
After you investigate the study by Mady Hornig, move on to the UC Davis Study who’s results were released in March. There’s no question as to what the root cause is of today’s damaged children.
Outraged, Linda Soderberg
P.S. Why don’t you journalist get together and resolve to not be the vaccine manufacturer’s “pets” any longer. Find out what investigative reporters have uncovered and join forces with those trying to stop this madness. Those who speak truth, offer their study’s to be scrutinized; the ‘Liars’ hide their research lest the truth be known.
