This is the story the UK media have steadfastly not been publishing and of the contrasting and
extraordinary new developments in the US and US Federal Court. Starting in Canada from 1986,
followed by Japan and the UK in 1988, it is a definitive carefully researched and accessible previously
unpublished account over 20 years to the present over MMR, vaccines, autism and life-threatening
childhood food allergies.
The UKs Daily Mail newspaper reported [13/Jan/09] the British government was desperately trying to
prevent the public release under the UKs Freedom Of Information laws of secret files on a proven
dangerous MMR [measles, mumps and rubella] vaccine. In a recent case they have been forced to open
the files up to scrutiny: [Confidential MMR vaccine files should be opened in the public interest,
watchdog rules - The Daily Mail - Jenny Hope - 13th January 2009]
After over 20 years children continue to be injured. What else are we not being told? The problem is
international, not just autism and not just the MMR vaccine [see USA developments and Federal Court
decisions below]. See how politics and money have overtaken the health and safety of your children.

For the USA seeUS Measles Data and generally see Risk to Children & Government Scaremongering.
The DTP vaccine contained a highly neurotoxic ingredient. The ingredieint was an organo-mercury
excipient called Thiomersal ["Thimerosal" in the USA]. Thiomersal is toxic in parts per billion - in
extremely small dilutions.
The vaccine concerned was The Wellcome Foundations Trivax AD DTP vaccine. The Wellcome
Foundation is now GlaxoSmithKline. Thiomersal was first introduced by pharmaceutical company Merck
in the 1930s and was not clinically trialled for safety in use in vaccines.
HFNN.ca
Video: University of Calgary Faculty of Medicine - How Mercury Causes Brain Neuron Degeneration
Revealed here exclusively worldwide for the first time, information obtained under the UKs
Freedom of Information law confirms the British MHRA [Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory
Agency] has no data on how much Thiomersal was in Trivax AD DTP vaccine, although the British DoH
[Department of Health] claimed publicly to have known that latter claim therefore appears incorrect.

Thiomersal is a well recognised cause of allergies: [The European Agency for the Evaluation of
Medicinal Products - Medicines Evaluation Unit - Safety Working Party Assessment of the Toxicity of
Thiomersal in Relation to Its Use in Medicinal Product SCPMP/SWP/I898/1998 - 8 September 1998].

of Sesssion] makes no mention whatsoever of Thiomersal in vaccines being a potential and possibly
most likely cause of the exponential rise in childhood allergies which has occurred since 1990 in the
UK.
The use of Thiomersal in other pharmaceuticals [eg. contact len cleaning fluid] has been strictly
controlled in Europe: CPMP Position Paper on Thiomersal - Implementation of the Warning Statement
Relating to Sensitisation. The European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products London, 21
October 1999 CPMP/2612/99]
Thiomersal contains 50% by weight of mercury. There is no safe limit - only a permitted daily/weekly
tolerable limit. This is measured in parts per million per kilogramme of body weight. Those limits apply
when ingested in food]. This neurotoxic organo-mercury compound was injected directly into infants
bodies at a time their bodies and nervous systems were developing the most rapidly at any time in
their lives. The amount of thiomersal claimed to be in Trivax AD DTP vaccine was 50 millionths of a
gramme injected directly into the body.
A 4 kilo weight 2 month old baby would have received in one injection 63 times higher than the
permitted tolerable daily intake in food set by the US Environmental protection Agency and the UKs
Committee on Toxicity. [To protect infants the PTWI set by the UK Committee on Toxicity for intake of
mercury compounds in food for women who are pregnant, or who may become pregnant within the
following year, or for breast-feeding mothers is one tenth of a millionth of gramme per kilogramme of
body weight per day - for a 9 stone woman [57 kg] that is 5.7 millionths of a gram per day].
Calculation of an infants overall body burden of toxic mercury must also include the burden from
environmental pollution. Sources include mercury from power station emissions, in fish as a result of
oceanic pollution by anti-fouling applied to ships hulls]. Research shows that children with autism
appear to have deficient mechanisms for expelling toxins like mercury and it accumulates in the body.
Also revealed here worldwide for the first time under Freedom of Information is that the
British Government also had no data on Thiomersal content of many other vaccines around that time
and some had more than claimed by the British government was in DTP. Examples are Duncan
Flockharts DTP vaccine - 130 millionths of a gramme thiomersal per millilitre and Lister Institute
Pertussis vaccine - 120 mcg/ml Thiomersal. Accordingly, this brings into question how much was in
Trivax AD DTP vaccine.
The British Government also hid this lack of knowledge from Parliament. A further revelation made
here exclusively worldwide for the first time is that British Health Minister Hazel Blears MP misled
the English Parliament in 2001 when she said in a Parliamentary answer that All childhood vaccines
licensed since 1986 which have ever contained thiomersal as an excipient are listed in the table [to
the answer]. [House of Commons Hansard Written Answers for 3 Jul 2001 (pt 19)]. The table contained
no such details and listed only those vaccines granted a licence in the UK since 1993.
Julie Kirkbride MP had asked for the vaccines . licensed since 1986 which contain thiomersal.
If you are asked have you been licensed to drive your car since 2006, you will answer yes even if you
have held a licence since 1980. Blears answer was in fact the answer to the question of the vaccines
granted a licence since 1986 which contain Thiomersal.
But, it seems mercury is not the only problem [See more below - US Court Decisions and Other
Recent Developments - Its Not Just MMR].
The British Government claims Thiomersal was phased out of its childhood vaccines in October 2004
[but vaccine stocks may have taken longer to run down and how safe is what has replaced it?].
A previously confidential 1991 internal Merck memorandum published by the USAs Los Angeles Times
shows the UK authorities had then known about the problem and were privately expressing concern to
the vaccine manufacturer about the presence of mercury in vaccines. This was along with Sweden,
Japan and Switzerland: [91 Memo Warned of Mercury in Shots - By Myron Levin - LA Times - February
08, 2005].
So why did they take 13 years to do something about it and why did they and do they continue to tell
the British public there is and was no problem when they knew there was and is? And as vaccines also
alter the functioning of the immune system, the removal of Thiomersal may well not be the only factor
affecting the increases in autism, asthma, allergies and childhood diabetes. [see more below - US Court
Decisions and Other Recent Developments].
On 7-8 June 2000, a confidential private meeting without public scrutiny took place between vaccine
manufacturers representatives, 51 US scientists, and a representative of the World Health
Organization. This was to discuss a study by US Centers for Disease Control expert Dr Thomas
Verstraeten of increasing doses of Thimerosal and neurodevelopmental disorders in children.
Verstraeten used US Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD) data, an official US governmental data bank on the
children from US health maintenance organizations (HMOs).
Verstraetens study showed a dose-response relationship between Thimerosal in vaccines and
neurodevelopmental disorders in children that held up to rigorous statistical analyses. This means
Verstraetens study showed a causal association between the amount of Thimerosal in vaccines a child
received and the extent to which the child developed the symptoms of impaired brain development .
These ranged from tics, speech impairment to symptoms of and full autism. The discussions can be read
in the transcript of the Simpsonwood Conference obtained by US organisaton SafeMinds under Freedom
of Information.

The US Institutes of Medicine published a report in 2001 on whether MMR caused autism
[Immunization Safety Review - Measles-Mumps-Rubella Vaccine and Autism].
The IOM committee held closed meetings to discuss the reports content and before considering the
evidence. A transcript of a meeting on 12th January 2001 was disclosed in Court proceedings [US
District Court of Texas, Eastern District; Case #5:03-CV-141].
Here are some quotes from the transcript:[the Centers for Disease Control] wants us to declare, well, these things are pretty safe on a population basis. [p33]
We said this before you got here, and I think we said this yesterday, the point of no return, the line we will not cross in public policy
is to pull the vaccine, change the schedule. We could say it is time to revisit this, but we would never recommend that level. Even
recommending research is recommendations for policy. We wouldnt say compensate, we wouldnt say pull the vaccine, we wouldnt
say stop the program. [p74]
we are not ever going to come down that it is a true side effect, [p97]
Chances are, when all is said and done, we are still going to be in this category. It is just a general feeling that we probably still are
not going to be able to make a statement, [p123]

Another free of charge helper to Sunday Times journalist Deer was Glaxo Wellcome funded Fellow and
active British Medical Association member, Dr Evan Harris MP. Harris has advised and assisted Deer up
to the present, including attending the Wakefield GMC hearings with Deer.
The Sunday Times journalist, Deer, was also assisted by The Royal Frees Strategic Health Authority
which passed Deer confidential documents in the spirit of openness and including documents relating
to the confidential medical treatment of the MMR child litigants. The SHA at first denied providing
documents until it was pointed out the fact was disclosed by Dr Evan Harris MP, in Parliament on 15th
March 2004.
On Saturday 21 February 2004, Lancet Editor Richard Horton pre-empted the Sunday Times stories.
Horton was reported in The Times claiming he would not have published the MMR part of The Royal
Frees Lancet paper had Wakefields paid involvement in the MMR litigation been disclosed. The Sunday
Times had waited until Sunday 22 February 2004, 5 days before judgment in the MMR child litigants
High Court challenge to the withdrawal of legal aid, to publish its stories attacking Wakefield. Prime
Minister Blair was reported in the press on the issue as was Health Secretary Reid.
As Dr Horton records in his book ["MMR Science and Fiction: Exploring the Vaccine Crisis,"], he was the
next day exchanging notes over dinner and liqueurs with a member of the UKs medical regulatory
body, The General Medical Council on possible bases for GMC proceedings against Andrew Wakefield:
["The confusion": Richard Horton - a remarkably frank passage' John Stone BMJ 2 November 2004]
That MMR is solely a political and money issue was given away by journalist Jeremy Laurances The
Independents story of 24th February 2004. Laurance reported there was delight in Whitehall as
Ministers temper their triumphalism and that joy was unconfined at the discrediting of Andrew
Wakefield. ["Ministers temper their triumphalism but delight spreads at Whitehall" The Independent Jeremy Laurance, Health Editor Tuesday, 24 February 2004 ].
This was bizarre if the issue was just which measles vaccine might be given to children. There was an
acceptable, cheaper and more effective measles vaccine. This was hardly stuff for Prime Minister Blair
to involve himself in but even he jumped in with both feet.
However, in the light of the British governments financial indemnity to Glaxo, the potential damage to
billion pound sterling Glaxos financial interests from a scandal over the vaccine and the British
governments liability in negligence to large numbers of children, it starts to make sense. This also puts
into clearer perspective why the choice of which measles vaccine children received became a major
political issue. It had and has nothing to do with protecting your children from disease or child health
safety. [blue text 15/Jan/09]
Legal aid was withdrawn on 27th February 2004 in a secret judgment by High Court Judge Nigel Davis.
The reasons remain unpublished today. Evidence given in open court at a different hearing included the
allegation from a parent that an official admitted to her that legal aid was withdrawn after government
pressure.
It was discovered in 2007 that Judge Sir Nigel Davis is the brother of Lancet owners CEO and main
Glaxo board member Sir Crispin Davis. When challenged a statement was issued on Judge Davis behalf
to The Telegraph newspapers legal correspondent Joshua Rosenberg and stated The possibility of any
conflict of interest arising from his brothers position did not occur to him.
On 15th March 2004 Dr Evan Harris launched an unprecedented and defamatory Parliamentary attack
on Wakefield and his Royal Free colleagues and to which not one of Harris Liberal Democrat colleagues
contributed. This was based on material in documents Sunday Times freelancer Deer had obtained and
passed to Harris. Harris used the opportunity to raise allegations The Sunday Times chose not to
publish.
Crispin Davis was awarded a knighthood June 2004.
Sunday Times freelance journalist Brian Deer confirmed it was he who had made the submissions to
the GMC which led to the present GMC proceedings against Wakefield. Wakefields lawyers had
reported in November 2004 that Deer had made a statutory complaint to the GMC and freelancer Deer
reported in the Sunday Times in December 2004 that the General Medical Council was investigating
the complaints against Wakefield.
Professor Denis McDevitt was due in July 2007 to chair the unprecedented British General Medical
Council hearing of the case of Doctors Wakefield, Murch and Professor Walker-Smith. McDevitt and the
GMC failed to declare McDevitts personal involvement in approving the dangerous Pluserix MMR
vaccine in 1988. He only stood down after Jamie Doward of the Observer, Martyn Halle, freelance
journalist for the Sunday Express, Andy Wilks of the Mail on Sunday, Jenny Hope of the Daily Mail and
Heather Mills of Private Eye challenged the GMC over the matter. ["MMR Conflict of Interest Zone"
Private Eye - June 2007]
A British Medical Journal post suggests more troubling conflicts of interest of the current panel
Chairman Dr Surendra Kumar. Kumar sits on two committees of the authority which licences the MMR
vaccine (MHRA), the Independent Review Panel for Advertising and the Independent Review Panel for
Borderline Products. Dr Kumar is also a shareholder in MMR defendants GlaxoSmithKline. Re:
Financial conflicts - shock horror John Stone - British Medical Journal - 2 October 2008 [Blue text

Contrary to Lancet Editor Dr Richard Hortons evidence to the GMC that he did not know of Wakefields
paid involvement in the MMR litigation, Horton had detailed correspondence in 1997 disclosing that
involvement The correspondence was with Richard Barr, the solicitor who was working on the MMR
litigation with Wakefield to help all those seriously injured British children. This correspondence was
considerably in advance of Hortons February 1998 publication in The Lancet of the Royal Frees paper
containing the interpretation that MMR vaccine is associated with autism cases involving inflammatory
bowel disease.
Notwithstanding this, the alleged non disclosure of the legal aid funding to Lancet Editor, Dr Richard
Horton and the publication of the 1998 Royal Free paper was the nub of Deers The Sunday Times
February 2004 attacks on Wakefield where it was claimed:The investigation has found that when [Wakefield] warned parents to avoid MMR, and published
research claiming a link with autism, he did not disclose he was being funded through solicitors seeking
evidence to use against vaccine manufacturers.

Now we know from this that Hortons claims do not stand up and with them, those of The Sunday Times
fall as well. But of course, not a word in the UK media.
Horton has not returned to the GMC Wakefield hearing this week [13/Jan/09] to clarify his evidence
and face cross-examination. It seems only his statement will be read out.
As for the Legal Aid money, for months in 1996 the Royal Free Medical School prevaricated accepting it
because Clearly, this could lead to a case against the Government for damages. wrote Dean
Zuckerman privately to the British Medical Association Secretary on 11th October 1996.
What no one knows and disclosed here publicly exclusively worldwide for the first time is that
when The Sunday Times published its allegations against Wakefield in 2004 their journalist already had
the documents showing Wakefield - a man accused of doing what he did for the money - was fed up
with this and had arranged in May 1997 for all the legal aid monies to be sent back and that he had
intended to raise the money himself for the injured children [see copy Freedom of Information
memo below - added 17/Jan/09].
It was the Royal Free which instead then reversed its position, decided to accept the money and
arranged in July 1997 for it to be paid to special trustees. Wakefield was never going to and never did
receive a cent.
AUTISM - US Court Decisions and Other Recent Developments - Its Not Just
MMR
[Blue added 15/Jan/09]
In February 2008, award winning best selling author David Kirby broke the story of the case of Hannah
Poling and how the US Department of Health and Human Services secretly conceded [ie. there was no
need for a hearing] in a US Federal Court case that Hannahs symptoms of autism were caused by the
nine vaccines [ie. not just MMR] which she received in one day [The Vaccine-Autism Court Document
Every American Should Read - David Kirby - Huffington Post - February 26, 2008].
The official HHS position is that they conceded [whether frankly or spin] that vaccines caused Hannahs
autistic symptoms by exacerbating an underlying mitochondrial disorder. The case put the issue high
up the US political agenda and continues to receive coast-to-coast media coverage in the USA [but
almost total silence in the UK]. CNN lists the autism issue in its top ten US health stories of 2008:#2 - Autism - Debate over the causes of autism continued to rage after a court decided to compensate
a family whose daughter developed the disorder after receiving childhood vaccinations - Autism in
CNNs 2008 top ten US health stories
But Hannahs case is not isolated and her underlying mitochondrial dysfunction appears not to be as
rare as the US HHS would like us to think [Explaining Vaccines Autism & Mitochondrial Disorder]. And
other cases have been made public [see below for details of another three involving MMR - but we do
not know how many cases have been settled quietly, as Hannah's case was before it became coastto-coast news in the USA throughout 2008].
