One of the ways to address the autism epidemic is to start calling it what it actually is, vaccine encephalopathy.

One in 271 Amish kids with autism is hyperbole. The real figure would be closer to I in 10,000 as it was for all children pre vaccine quackery. I have read several times that there is no autism among the Amish except for an adopted child that was previously vaccinated.

It's estimated that ~41% of Amish vaccinate their children: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33478791/

A reporter asked an Amish man why the Amish are healthy and don't get vaxxinated. The Amish man said "We Amish are healthy and don't get vaxxinated because we don't have television."

Perfect, my MIL has had CBS news on all day and they are CONSTANTLY talking about the measles outbreak in Texas and getting vaccinated. It's constant the fearmongering, that and Avian flu. Turn off the damn TV!

i have to agree. i've spent some time with amish farm families. i can only imagine the numbers getting that high if the amish, some of them, have gotten talked into vaccinating their children. a good study would be to find every autistic amish child and check to see if they had been vaccinated, how fully they adhered to the schedule.

also to get a verbal history from the parents- did they see any reactions after the vaccinations? did they have combined shots or single spaced out shots?

if there are any vaccinated non-autistic amish children, i'd want to know if they lived on regenerative farms. many amish don't wear shoes. i always marvel at their beautiful feet, the kind of feet that hold onto the earth. i was at an amish farm once and there was literally a football field of cured compost- cow manure- spread before us. many of the guests walked around but when i saw the farmer's 2 year old son walk barefooted through the compost, i took off my shoes and socks and joined him. i would want to investigate if any vaccinated but not autistic amish children were protected by their vigorous immune system and constant contact with soil biology

I personally know of two Amish brothers with autism. Uncle married his niece. That’s the only ones local with autism.

it is autism or Autism spectrum? I have a child diagnosed with Autism Spectrum disorder (Asperger's) but it's heredity.

And, the known risk factors for autism:

20X higher if a previous child was autistic

20X higher is extensive use of Tylenol between 12 and 24 months

10X higher if a specific gene mutation

4X higher if the father was >age 55

5X higher if very preterm birth

3.9X higher if valproate was used during pregnancy

3X increase if more than 3 hours of screen time daily before age 1

2.9 X higher if the mother was obese or diabetic

2.5X less than 6 months between previous birth and new pregnancy

2X if mother lived near freeway in 3rd trimester

Acetaminophen / paracetamol (Tylenol, Panadol and numerous other preparations) use in pregnancy is well recognised by researchers as raising the risk of ADHD and/or autism. However, the general public and, it seems, most doctors, remain largely unaware of this. More on this below.

Inadequate vitamin D3 supplementation during pregnancy, and so low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (as measured in "vitamin D" blood tests) raises the risk of pre-eclampsia, pre-term birth, autism, mental retardation: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/00- evi/#3.2, drives infectious and chronic inflammatory diseases and condemns many to cognitive decline -> dementia in old age https://vitamindstopscovid.info/00- evi/#3.3).

Without proper vitamin D3 supplementation - in quantities which while small, are 5 to 10 times those recommended by governments and many doctors - and without recent high level ultraviolet B exposure of ideally white skin, most people have 25 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) or less circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D.

Please see the research cited and discussed at my long web page on the vitamin D compounds, primarily 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and the immune system: https:// vitamindstopscovid.info/00-evi/. There, you will find peer-reviewed research articles which clearly show that the immune system can only work properly, at least against the bacterial pathogens which cause post-operative infections, if the level of circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D is 50 ng/mL or more. The same is likely true of immune responses to cancer and both viral and fungal infections.

Without proper vitamin D3 supplementation - in quantities which while small, are 5 to 10 times those recommended by governments and many doctors - and without recent high level ultraviolet B exposure of ideally white skin, most people have 25 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) or less circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Some have only one tenth - especially the elderly and/or those with dark or black skin who are living far from the equator.

This page begins with recommendations from New Jersey based Professor of Medicine, Sunil Wimalawansa on the average daily supplemental intake quantities of vitamin D3 which will attain least 50 ng/mL circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D, over several months, without the need for blood tests or medical monitoring:

70 to 90 IU / kg body weight for those not suffering from obesity (BMI < 30).

100 to 130 IU / kg body weight for obesity I & II (BMI 30 to 39).

140 to 180 IU / kg body weight for obesity III (BMI > 39).

For 70 kg (154 lb) body weight without obesity, this is about 0.125 milligrams (125 micrograms 5000 IU) a day. This takes several months to attain the desired > 50 ng/mL circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D. This is 8 or more times what most governments recommend. "5000 IU" a day sounds like a lot, but it is a gram every 22 years - and pharma-grade vitamin D costs about USD$2.50 a gram ex-factory.

Paracetamol/acetaminophen is widely accepted, but it is a major cause of death and liver failure due to suicide attempts, causes emotional dulling. For years there have been warnings about its use in pregnancy raising the risk of autism: Avella- Carcia et al." 2016 "Acetaminophen use in pregnancy and neurodevelopment: attention function and autism spectrum symptoms" https:// academic.oup.com/ije/article/45/6/1987/2617189; Bauer et al. 2021 "Paracetamol use during pregnancy — a call for precautionary action" https:// www.nature.com/articles/s41574-021-00553-7.

Recent research along these lines confirms the elevated risk, at least for ADHD. Baker et al. 2025 "Associations of maternal blood biomarkers of prenatal APAP exposure with placental gene expression and child attention deficit hyperactivity disorder", Nature Mental Health https://www.nature.com/articles/s44220-025-00387-6 (Paywalled.)

Abstract:

Despite evidence linking prenatal acetaminophen (APAP) exposure and adverse neurodevelopment in humans and animals, over half of pregnant women in most populations use APAP. Prior studies could be biased by inaccurate self-reported APAP use, and the molecular mechanisms linking prenatal APAP with adverse neurodevelopment are unknown. Here we estimated associations between maternal plasma biomarkers of APAP exposure, child attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and placental gene expression in 307 African American mother–child pairs. Overall, detection of APAP in second trimester plasma was associated with higher odds for child ADHD diagnosis (odds ratio of 3.15 (95% confidence interval 1.20 to 8.29)). Prenatal APAP exposure and ADHD were associated with placental upregulation of immune system pathways in females and downregulation of oxidative phosphorylation in both sexes. In females only, prenatal APAP was associated with 5.22% higher odds (0.0456–13.1%) of ADHD statistically, mediated through increased immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma 1 (IGHG1) expression. These results highlight placental molecular mechanisms that may underlie developmental toxicity of prenatal APAP exposure.

I'm also reading there may be a connection between pregnant women taking acetaminophen and their children being autistic.

Anyone who can look at this evidence and continue to brush off the idea that childhood vaccines and toxic chemicals applied to crops have any bearing on skyrocketing autism rates, is in on the grift. There's no other reasonable explanation.

Autism rates have risen in virtual lockstep with the rise in use of the pesticide glyphosate (Roundup brand), according to Stephanie Seneff, who writes about this extensively. I learned about this from the Weston A. Price Foundation. I wrote a post on this because much more needs to be done than just avoiding GMO foods; glyphosate is used in harvesting grains and some beans too, so non-GMO just isn't good enough.

Glyphosate kills good bacteria (probiotics) in the digestive tract. Probiotics need to be added back via the diet even as glyphosate is avoided in foods.

You can find the graph of the rise of autism in lockstep with glyphosate, and a lot more, in my post https://ernestdlieberman.substack.com/p/autism-good-things-to-try-organic.

Good Health to You!

No doubt glyphosate is a contributing factor to the autism epidemic because it contaminates the food from crops it's applied to, and then decimates the gut flora of humans who eat the food. Gut dysbiosis is a major factor in the development of autism; and Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride points out that gut dysbiosis makes a child more vulnerable to vaccine injury.

However, I wouldn't say that "autism rates have risen in virtual lockstep with the rise in use of the pesticide glyphosate." Look up C. D. Nevison's research report "A comparison of temporal trends in United States autism prevalence to trends in suspected environmental factors", which is easily found on the web. Check out Figure 6, which compares the autism prevalence curve and the curve for application of glyphosate to U.S. GMO soy and corn crops. You'll see that the glyphosate curve lags about 5 years behind the autism curve.

Then access Additional File 1 and examine the graphs contained in it. You'll see that the curves that most closely match the autism curve are "cumulative amount of aluminum adjuvant administered post-natally to U.S. infants and toddlers..." (Figure S7a) and "cumulative number of immunizations administered to U.S. infants and toddlers..." (Figure S8).

I think we need to recognize that autism is an "ecological" disorder in the sense that it results from the interaction of two or more contributing factors. No doubt gut dysbiosis + MMR (manufactured on human fetal cell lines) is one combination that readily produces autism, but the research demonstrating this has been "blackholed."

It also causes leaky gut so that the glyphosate goes beyond the blood/brain barrier.

Expand full comment

This matters so much because, unlike other pesticides which are considered toxic and therefore kept at low volumes (even if too high), glyphosate is considered nontoxic by American authorities and therefore allowed to be present in much greater amounts; "nontoxic" to human biology, that is, but, unrecognized by American authorities, very toxic to the good bacteria in our gut that not only keep out bad bacteria but also provide numerous nutrients that humans absolutely need to be healthy.

Chem trails all over Europe, Uk still using glyphophate, French vineyards continue to spray the daylights out of their grapes. And the Uk and usa continue to provide their countrymen with tons of gmo foods for yrs now. And finally, childhood vaxxes continue to be injected on every child, sadly. And yet, the on,y people bringing this to our attention are ostracised by their countries. I witness so many young and older children with severe autism here in the UK. I wonder who will look after them when their parents are gone. Many appear to need full time care. It is heartbreaking. A childhood stolen from its parents and from the child. Who would do such a thing?

These recommendations should be common sense but the PTB and their media mouthpieces make it sound like a radical agenda. That's how you know it's right. Flak over the target

Think twice. If he needs disability payments, or services, or disabled housing, it might be a good idea. If not, you might be better off without such “help.” He’s made it this far. Did he finish high school? Is he working? Maybe an informal support group can advise him. Once he comes out, he can’t take it back.

Not buying that Amish statistic unless this also has to to with chemtrail spraying along with pesticides polluting All water supplies. Also, since T is so brave in coming out with the statistics that we have known for several years, how about addressing the odd behaved kid.

>>as far as Im concerned autism is all the proof we need to indicate that science has become nothing more than a commodity owned by big government big medicine big harma and now? big church. (big $ymbiosis) The evidence is found in many places but one of the best is T Collin Campbell's THE CHINA STUDY. He gets to the heart of the issue that shows how money and political (fiat) control - brainwashes the medical industry and thus those that see these brainwashed doctors (liberal media consumers) as Gods. People like Dr McCullough that do their own research and have no time to be media indoctrinated are those that I trust because I have not owned a TV in 25 years. Social media is the ONLY place where true scientific relationships are grass rooted. You can develop relationships developed outside the censorship. Its also where you can usually detect who is and who is not genuine. The more attached these medical professionals are to the mainstream indoctrination system (DoE) the more I tend to distrust them and covid and vaccine quackery amplified this in spades.
