Hear the Silence:The Real Wakefield Story (video)

March 2, 2013 by admin in Videos with 16 Comments

Child with Autism Running AwayThis video was shown once and then disappeared. It has now had Hebraic subtitles added, but the original English soundtrack is in place. It tells the story of Andrew Wakefield’s research and how it was suppressed. The focus is on one family, how autism affected them, how they found Wakefield, and how they and others support him. It’s a modern-day tragedy. 

This story needs to be told and repeated. People must learn what’s happened and act to stop this destruction of so many lives. It’s well-acted and professionally produced. Please, watch this full-length movie while it can still be seen. [1:38:09]

    Have people looked at the 150 other studies that dispel the myth of linking Autism and vaccinations?

    • / Heidi Stevenson

      The fact is that those studies are tainted with Big Pharma money, both directly and indirectly. They are blatantly poorly done.

      As you’ve demonstrated in your other comments on this site, you’re obviously a shill. Shills are not welcome here.

      You cannot prove a negative. All you can say is that a study did or did not indicate a statistically significant correlation. So big pharma sets up the studies to be purposely flawed so that they don’t find the correlation. The website 14studies.com shows how 14 of the most frequently cited studies are logically flawed.

    Excellent video which should be widely spread.

    “Dr. Wakefield’s crucifixion is a desperate well-orchestrated effort to restore faith in risky vaccinations that the majority of people worldwide no longer trust” ~Dr. Horowitz.

    We noted that in connection with the harassment of Dr Wakefield simultaneous broadcasts from radio stations worldwide announced that his work was fraudulent and they interviewed “experts” who all said that the MMR was safe.

    Questions and answers in these interviews were identical, irrespective of where they were broadcast from in the world.

    With the proviso that I haven’t watched this video; but….

    It is very clear that two intersecting threads appear in this man’s story. Firstly, that he has forged a probably causal link between vaccination and subsequent ASD. That much seems certain.
    But secondly, this information is not welcomed by BP. So they sought to discredit the messenger; as they could not discredit the message.
    AW colluded with them to do this. He did this by his unethical practice. All the indisputable, and undisputed, evidence is contained and freely available in the BMA decision which stripped him of his registration as a doctor in the UK.
    He:
    1. Offered children at his son’s birthday party £5 each if they would supply blood samples.
    2. Charged the NHS for the hospitalizations of some or all of his experimental subjects; the NHS had provided this service free of charge.
    3. Took clinical decisions about the treatment of the children when he was not professionally qualified to do so. He is a gastroenterologist, not a paediatrician.
    4.Clearly deviated from the stipulations attached to his original grant application.

    There are possibly one or two other areas in which he was found to have lacked the ethical standards expected of a medical practitioner; for these offences he was removed, quite rightly in my opinion, from the medical register. It should also be noted that AW had patented a single-shot vaccination which stood to inherit the massive market for these drugs should the triple-shot MMR vaccination have been publically and professionally discredited. As such he was an interested, as opposed to a disinterested, party to this research.

    However, I repeat my original contention, viz. that the relationship between vaccination and subsequent neurodevelopmental disorders seems increasingly likely as time goes on.

    Unfortunately, AW’s undoubted expertise in this area of research will not be available to the scientific community, because of the earlier and inexcusable tactical errors made by the gentleman himself.

      What??

      1. The idea that it was so terrible to ask for blood samples from those children is absurd. That such a small thing has been blown so out of proportion is astounding.

      2. He wasn’t even accused of charging the NHS for hospitalizations on experimental subjects.

      3. He was a gastroenterologist who made clinical decisions based on his specialty. Any claims that he was out of line are beyond absurd – trumped up charges.

      4. He most assuredly did not do anything contrary to his grant. Nor did he do anything unethical.

      Your claim that Wakefield stood to gain from the patent is also false. He filled out the patent application for the benefit of others. Wakefield’s name does not appear as a patent holder.

      You are repeating the scurrilous and false accusations against Wakefield. You’ll not be allowed to do so again. If you actually believed that there’s a connection between vaccination and neurological disorders, then you’d have educated yourself about the truth of Wakefield’s railroading, not spewed these lies.

        If Wakefield was really railroaded, why does he lose every libel and defamation suit he brings against his detractors? England has some of the most strict anti-libel laws in the world and yet the he can’t seem to win a single one of them…

        • / Heidi Stevenson

          “… every libel and defamation suit”? There is only one, which is not in the UK, but in the US. It’s in appeals now. The judge involved has ties to Big Pharma.

          It takes a lot of money to bring such cases in the UK, and Wakefield doesn’t have it. His co-author, John Walker-Smith, who had the insurance to take it to the UK’s Supreme Court, won – and won in a big way. That effectively clears Wakefield, because the claims were mostly the same.

          Your claim is both misstated – giving the impression that Wakefield has brought lots of cases – and wrong.

          • Art Esuation

            Wakefield sued Deer and Channel Four Television in or before 2005: http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/QB/2005/2410.html and lost thus he has lost every case he has brought. He clearly had money to bring at least one suit so your argument that “It takes a lot of money to bring such cases in the UK, and Wakefield doesn’t have it” means nothing.

            John Walker-Smith’s case had nothing to do with libel: http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/Admin/2012/503.html. He successfully sued that he committed no “serious professional misconduct” for his part in Wakefield’s research. This obviously has no bearing on the point about Deer and the BMJ lying, so you bringing it up in defense is either because you are unaware of the details of the case or you are trying to be purposely misleading.

            If Walker-Smith’s case “effectively cleared Wakefield” he could have sued to regain his licence in the UK instead of moving to the US where he cannot practice medicine.

            Wakefield himself withdrew his other libel suits against Deer and the BMJ while he was busy unsuccessfully defending his medical license so between this and the above I think it is very fair to say that Wakefield lost every libel and defamation suit against Deer and the BMJ. That is clearly a fact. You can choose to invoke conspiracy theories involving the Big Pharma boogie man as lame reasons that he failed at those attempts, but reading the original court decisions makes it clear that he never had a case in the first place.

          • / Heidi Stevenson

            You completely ignore the fact that it costs an immense amount of money to bring lawsuits in the UK. You ignore that trying to defend himself against the GMC’s false charges (as clearly documented by the Supreme Court decision for Walker-Smith) is all-consuming. If he made the tactical error of launching lawsuits too early … well, that’s got absolutely nothing to do with whether Wakefield did anything wrong. (And pulling a suit is NOT losing it.)

            No suggestion has been made that Walker-Smith’s case involved libel – but clearing him makes absolutely clear that the claims against Wakefield are false – libelous. And that’s what really matters: the truth.

            But you aren’t interested in that. You’re interested in making Big Pharma look good – no matter what the cost to people’s lives. You accuse me of being a conspiracy theorist and support Big Pharma. You’re a shill.

    Dr. Wakefield and the other good doctors who are targeted by the “Medical Mafia” deserve our support. Another of the good doctors has written about the vaccine voodoo “science” here: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/docs/Syringe_of_death.pdf – her website is: http://www.SaveMyLifeDrRima.com

    35 peer-reviewed papers support the findings of the original work by Wakefield and colleagues at the Royal Free Hospital in the UK: http://www.ageofautism.com/2010/05/peer-reviewed-papers-support-findings.html

  • brothersun

    The research team, headed by Janet K. Kern from the Institute of Chronic Illnesses in Maryland, identified nearly two-dozen metabolic and systemic changes that occur inside the body as a result of mercury intoxication. And it just so happens that these same changes also commonly occur in children with ASD, many of whom were injected with mercury in the form of Thimerosal as a result of childhood vaccinations.

    WOW – Do the shills come out when it’s antivax time! Especially regarding Dr. Wakefield. Oddly – they all ignore an independent University of Virginia study that corroborated his findings of MMR vaccine measles virus in the autistic children they observed. It’s a amazing how many are so willing to be slimy Brian Deer types for the vaccine industry. It’s amazing also how you take them on Heidi. I know how you feel – but I think it’s better to press the delete warning or place the worst possible photos of Brian Deer on each one.

      Thanks, Paul. The delete button will come into play more often soon. The mean-spiritedness and the blatancy of the shills is more amazing to me each day.
