7. Testimony of Bernard Rimland, Ph.D. before House Committee on Government Reform 4/6/2000; "The Autism Increase: Research Needed on the Vaccine Connection".Thimerosal
Ref. 1, p. 40 states: "The National Institute of Health (NIH) estimates the current prevalence of autism (1996) to be one in 500". Thimerosal contains 50% (by weight) of mercury. "Mercury studies have consistently shown a greater effect on males than females (EPA, 1977). There is a ratio of approximately 4:1 in the rate of autism in boys compared with girls. Prior to 1970 the autism rate was one in 2000, after 1970 the rate was 1 in 1000. In 1991, two vaccines, HIB and Hepatitis B, both of which generally contain Thimerosal, were added to the recommended vaccine schedule".
The FDA, as of March 2000, has only encouraged rather than required the vaccine manufacturers to remove Thimerosal from their vaccines immediately.
Figs 1. & 2. show the sharp increase in the autism rate from 1988 to the present.
Conclusion: Thimerosal should be banned immediately by the FDA.
Fig 2. provides proof that the initial indication of autism at birth was less than the initial indication at 18 months until approximately1985 when the initial indication was the same. From 1985-1993 both rates increased with the initial indication of autism at 18 months increasing at a much greater rate than that at birth. The number of vaccines also increased during this period. Both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and American Association of Pediatrics (AAP) deny that vaccines are the cause of this alarming rate of autism. Many parents of autistic children believe that the triple vaccines, DPT (Diphtheria, Pertusis, Tetanus) and MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella), caused their children's' autism (Refs 2 & 3).
Vaccination is mandatory for a child to attend school. Parents can circumvent this requirement by obtaining an exemption for personal, religious or philosophical grounds (Ref. 6). One such group, the Congregation for Universal Wisdom (Ref. 5),has provided parents with the freedom of choice to make their own decisions concerning whether to vaccinate their children.
The Ref. 4 Vaccination Study survey form was designed in order to survey the members of the Congregation for Universal Wisdom in cooperation with its director, Walter Schilling, DC.
Ref. 4 lists the vaccination records of up to 8 children per family into 3 categories: whether the child received none, some, or all of the scheduled vaccination requirements set by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). In addition to the following "behavior" categories: "Normal", "Learning Disabled" and "Autistic", Dr. Schilling added "Hyperactive", "Downs Syndrome" and "ADHD". These "None", "Some" and "All" categories were also applied to the following contagious diseases: Hepatitis B, Measles, Mumps, Rubella, Chicken Pox, Pertusis (Whooping Cough), Diphtheria, Tetanus and Allergies which were acquired by the children surveyed.
The Ref. 5 "Survey Data" is based on the following number of children in each vaccination category: "None" - 466, "Some" - 208, "All" - 43. The total sample size of 719 children provides a sufficient number of children for valid conclusions.
The following tables for "Behavior" and "Childhood Diseases" list the number of children and percent (%) of children in each of the three vaccination groups.

Note: None of the children in the three vaccinations groups contracted Hepatitis B, Diphtheria or Tetanus.
The accuracy of Tables 1 & 2 is verified as follows:

Conclusions:
1. Vaccinating children significantly reduces the percent of normal, healthy children in proportion to the number of "shots" received.
2. Vaccinations significantly increase the percentage of both learning disabled and autistic children.
3. Educators should review their mandated vaccination policies based on the large rate of increase of learning disabled and autistic children who require large increases in funding for special education.
4. Vaccinations increases hyperactivity and ADHD.
5. Vaccination is not a causal factor in Downs Syndrome.
6. Vaccination increases the probability of contracting both measles and chicken pox compared with not being vaccinated.
7. Vaccination increases the probability of contracting allergies.
8. Refs. 5 and 6, and this study all support my vaccination conclusions that vaccines are neither safe nor effective and therefore parents should be given "Freedom of Choice" by governmental and other authorities.
9. A humanistic capitalism must replace the present profit based capitalistic system of medicine-industry and government cooperation to the detriment of people. Government of, by and for the people has never existed in any society. The Internet and Internet based standards writing organizations, such as VOSI, can make humanistic capitalism a reality.

Conclusions
1. The None, Some, All and Total populations of the updated survey were approx 2 times that of the original survey , however the autistic population was 20% greater than the original.
2. All of the original conclusions were verified in the updated survey.
3. A parent must make the choice whether they are willing to accept the possibility of their child becoming learning disabled or autistic based on the children who are vaccinated being approximately 14 times more likely to become learning disabled and 8 times more likely to become autistic, than if they had never vaccinated their child.
4. The Department of Education (DOEd) is responsible for enforcing the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA) and therefore should carefully review this research report based on the implications that the high population of learning disabled children in the United State's educational system is a direct result of the DOEd's policy of forcing parents to have their children vaccinated in order for them to enter school.
5. The DOEd should immediately rescind its forced vaccine policy and allow parents the "Freedom-of-Choice" to decide whether they are willing to take the high risk of having their child become learning disabled as a direct result of misunderstanding of the possible bad effects of vaccination which have dramatically increased the dollars spent on special education.
6. None of the children in either study contracted diphtheria or tetanus. The diphtheria, Pertusis, tetanus ( DPT ) combined vaccine has been implicated as a direct cause of autism by parents who had completely normal children until they were vaccinated with the triple vaccine.
7. Hepatitis B is a sexually, not contagious, transmitted disease. Since infants and young children are not sexually active, the vaccine should be banned.
8. The FDA should ban the Diphtheria, Pertusis, Tetanus ( DPT ) combined vaccine.
9. Vaccinated children are almost 2 times as likely to contract measles and mumps compared to children who have never been vaccinated.
10. Parents have also implicated the Mumps, Measles & Rubella shot (MMR) as a direct cause of their children's autism.
11. Since children who are vaccinated are more likely to contract measles and mumps than those who are never vaccinated, only the rubella vaccine is required based on its effectiveness in preventing rubella.
12. The FDA should ban the Mumps, Measles & Rubella shot (MMR).
