Well, Alex Berenson can think what he wants, but until he himself is directly affected by having a child with autism, he needs to step back & listen to those of us who are. Our son was given the MMR vaccine at 10 months old. Too early, according to the official schedule, but I didn’t know at that time. Our pediatrician knew I was vaccine hesitant, & he coerced me to let him get the MMR while I was in his office for a baby well check. It’s the only one he ever received, & it caused a big spike in temperature, a few hours afterwards. That night, our baby was screaming in pain. He rarely ever cried before. We took him to the hospital & they gave him Tylenol, & observed him for several hours before sending us home. Over the next few days, he began having seizures & we took him back to his pediatrician. I was scared & frustrated & told him I know this was a bad reaction to the MMR Vaccine & the doctor quietly agreed, but did not educate me on what to do for him, nor offer to report to VAERS. I didn’t know about VAERS at that time. I was young, in my 20’s. I did not receive Informed Consent. The pediatrician sent us to a Neurologist who confirmed the seizures & also agreed it was most likely from the vaccine he was recently given. Neither doctor wanted to have anything to do with us after this. We were essentially ghosted. And left to deal with the consequences on our own. We ended up paying tens of thousands of dollars, out of pocket, for different therapies throughout his early childhood. Our son was left with high functioning Aspergers Syndrome, which at 27 years old, he still deals with to this day. There are millions of us who had perfectly healthy, happy, normal developing babies before a trip to the pediatrician’s office, & a whole different child after vaccination. We don’t have to be “expert virologists or immunologists” to know this was caused by these vaccines. Same for the other vaccines. They’re all dangerous. They have toxic ingredients including endotoxins, DNA contamination, mercury, aluminum, & who knows what else. They’re all bio weapons, paid for by divisions of the government, as well as, billionaire “philanthropists” who want to play God & make money in the process. I’ve done my own research, & I now know this to be true. Perhaps, Alex B. should have a chat with Dr. Geoff Pain. Or check out his Substack. There’s lots of other, good, well studied, well researched doctors & scientists who have proof that vaccines have always been a bio weapons/population control for-profit industry. No doubt in my mind. Cognitive dissonance is a terrible thing to have Alex. Go back to the drawing board & figure this out. You ain’t there yet!

Perfectly stated I'm in the same club that neither of us asked to join

Yeah, I had to unsubscribe from Alex Berenson because of some of his glaring blind spots even in the covid narrative.

I too was fearful of covid as my infirm mom of 90 was living with us but before mid year 2020 we had raised out Vitamin-D3 and some other supplements and had come to the realisation that it was over hyped and under treated. None of us took a jab, in a distant country even on my recommendation not to my brother did take one because he believed they had value but did not repeat it for which I am grateful. Our son too had a regressive episode at 18mo after the last jab we allowed (we were led to believe that they were essential for school attendance in South Africa at the time but it was false and out hesitancy was already at play before that) and it was a decade of work to get him to 'normal' so I feel blessed that he could be cured.

The problem I have with Alex is he does not seem to want to change his mind and I grant that he has to maintain appearances to stay in the loop but the moment you touch a subject you own your position and he does not have a strong one when it comes to autism.

Berenson was also duped by the Ukraine propaganda. I used to follow his writings during the Covid fiasco, but once he showed how gullible he was to propaganda on other subjects it became fairly evident that he is not a broad truth seeker like you JB. He just coincidentally got part of the Covid scam correct, but has not been accurate on anything else. Fantastic rebuttal JB. Also your book, How to End the Autism epidemic is THE BEST out there. I have bought several copies and spread them around to people how can think logically, but have not had the chance to see the real data.

DTP-HIB and our lives have been utterly destroyed. I didn’t know about metals, vaccine injury, the vaccine injury fund, or that the pharmaceutical companies had legal immunity. I was only 24 at the time of his shot - naive, compliant, obedient. The guilt of not knowing has never left, but in reality we didn’t have true informed consent. Our consent was based on a lie. Since the pharmaceutical companies have immunity, the appropriate class action is against the government who gave them the immunity and the CDC, who sponsored the lie.

JB, you, NOT Alex, are one of my heroes.

You are absolutely right. This oft-heard phrase "many studies have shown that there is no link" is false. This idea of ​​"scientific consensus" must be corrected, just like you do. There is a lot of bias in the study cited on the MMR vaccine. Most people probably know this book, which covers all of this very well: Turtles All The Way Down: Vaccine Science and Myth.

Concerning Verstraeten, as one of my friend recently told me: the link is studied between autism and doses of mercury received, ok. But in fact it is between autism and doses of vaccines, right? It is said in the Simpsonwood conference report p. 50:

"Finally, and this may be th toughest one of all, how do we know that it is a Thimerosal effect? Since all vaccines are Thimerosal containing, how do we know that it's not something else in the vaccines such as aluminum or the antigens?"

JB I really enjoyed your article and have sent it to a friend who's son has been diagnosed with Asd. She and her husband said he wasn't the same after his jabs. And an Australian MP Russell Broadbent who is calling out our Govt policy of "no jab no play no pay". Australian parents are coerced into vaccination otherwise they miss out on childcare and tax benefits. At least vaccination is not required to attend school.

Sadly I've only woken up after covid so my kids have had most.

Question...is there evidence that vaccines cause adhd and aspergers even if there's no severe reaction, seizures, etc? My son has had no language delay, high IQ, but was diagnosed with aspergers and adhd. Confounded by adverse reactions to an Ssri at 8. Then put on ritalin for 2 years. Off ritalin for last year. He's not doing well.

Obviously I feel completely f**ked around by the entire medical community. Zero informed consent.

I'm disgusted at my own naivete and trust. That really gets me down.

We are trying to detox from metals with a zeolyte spray. Ensure his minerals are balanced. Considering oxygen therapy.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks for your work on this.

Please look in to the Andy Cutler protocol for detoxing metals.

His denial is hurting our kids. My son was injured and thankfully your book came out a few years later so I could find peace knowing exactly what happened. Can people compartmentalize and deny truths for self-preservation? Absolutely. Berenson's awakening is a mile marker toward a greater awakening. Maybe he's not going to swim toward the shore of truth but at least the tide will carry him in. Fewer and fewer parents are taking the risks that the industry wants us to and your work JB has reached so many people. Thanking you for attacking this pernicious lie head on with all your might.

Amen, thank you for writing this! I love Alex too but felt he was out of line saying he didn’t want to get into the vaccine-autism debate but then throw out that crappy study as an argument against the vaccine-autism link. He has no clue on this topic!

And now they try to get the HPV into most kids before they are even teenagers, starting at age 9. And they try to entice them with the idea that if they get it at age 9, they only have to have 2 shots to complete the series, but they'll need 3 if they start later. Plus, they use a technique called motivational interviewing to change the minds of parents who decline - which is extremely unethical. Apparently they also used this psychological technique on veterans with the covid shots.

So many girls have dropped dead from the HPV vaccine.

Thank you for writing this!

It’s about time!

That’s how Alex revealed to me… he’s not actually very smart… despite him telling his readers at nauseam, that’s he’s smarter than everyone else

Don’t like him- At all!

I Shut off the white noise chaos - he was making- long ago. Drama King.

Right after he took a huge undisclosed sum of money as a payoff in his lawsuit against Twitter … and was still begging his readers for more cash

Grifter

For his own gain…

I’ve never seen anyone so mad he’d been cast out of liberal polite NY society in my whole life. Grow up Alex.

-Mom of two vaccine injured boys. He insults all parents who know what we lived. He’s two decades late to the rodeo.

Wow. Stunning. Damning. Excellent. Berenson is also totally blind to the benefits and science behind ivermectin. Disappointing, to say the least.

When was it that you said the same thing on the television show The Doctors, J.B.? Over a decade ago, I think.

One ingredient, one vaccine.

And they STILL haven't produced any new evidence since then!

Great article JB . I bought 2 of your first books . I kept one and gave the other to a co- worker whose son is Autistic but in denial it was vaccine related . I loved watching you on the Doctors episode!

I worked in health care for 36 yrs . I tried my hardest to convince parents not to give their newborns the HepB . I was forever getting called to the principals office ( HR) . About Alex I used to follow him and have a couple of his books but when he said Ivermectin didn’t work he lost me ! Thanks again for the detailed article !

I have found the BEST way to convince people, is tell

them we can detox a child with autism using holistic means.

I wrote up a protocol, with 3 doctors who healed their sons protocols too.

Here it is:

Autism Spectrum and Vaccine Injury Healing Information

Natural Detox Methods for heavy metals from vaccines*

Build a strong gastro-intestinal and immune system

Consume – Organic only, Raw dairy, grass fed meats, fermented foods, bone

broth (minerals), veggies, fruits. Ketogenic Diet, GAPS plan, Microbiome gut

health. Vitamin supplements and probiotics

Eliminate – Genetically modified organisms (glyphosate exposure and autism

rates show a nearly 100% correspondence and glyphosate kills good gut

bacteria), white flour, white sugar, white pasta, white rice. No antibiotics,

vaccines, Tylenol (reduces glutathione in liver that makes it difficult to

detox). No silver (mercury) fillings.

Drink spring water only, best brands for detoxing are Volvic/Fiji due to high

silica. No fluoride water/toothpaste

Replace household laundry and cleaning products with natural non-toxic, no

synthetic scents alternatives.

Create a sleep sanctuary free from WIFI, its non-thermal pulsed radiation.

Get a guard for modem and smart meter. www.smartmeterguard.com

Cleanse

Baths – Detox in bath as a therapeutic environment with Epsom, Dead Sea or

Himalayan salts, baking soda, borax, essential oils

Foot baths – IonCleanse detoxifying foot baths.

Sunshine and lots of exercise, sweat releases toxins

Far Infrared Sauna – Infrared light penetrates deep into the body and

stimulates detoxification pathways.

Form a healthy spinal structure. Utilize chiropractic care to create a healthy

spinal structure and allow for proper innervation of all the organs, tissues

and muscles of the body. This will stimulate the body’s healing and

detoxification potential.

Stimulate the body’s ability to generate healthy cells, immune function and

detoxification pathways using Homeopathic Treatment.

8. Parasite cleanse. Many autistic children have parasites that excrete their waste

in gas form (inside the body) similar to morphine, ammonia and histamine.

I am a little aware of some of these people, they try,

but they dont go far enough to state its the VA$$INES!!!!

Their many degrees weigh them down, its basic Common Sense when

you listen to the parents who know and lived the experience.

I’m so glad you’re publishing again, JB! Your voice has been missed!! I hope Alex listens to you. I had hoped early on that he would be a powerful ally but he has disappointed on many occasions, this being one. ~Jill Hines

I can't take Berenson seriously anymore for several reasons. I too enjoyed his early Covid coverage but he is no longer trustworthy. Berenson has an agenda against Ivermectin, almost like a personal vendetta. He personally attacked Dr Pierre Kory for instance. He also went out of his way to attack a woman who suffered vaccine injury, going as far as to claim she was faking her injuries to get attention. He completed ignored the testimony of Dr Kory who was treating her and continued to attack her.

Berenson would do well to read:

1. Dr. Jon Poling et al's article on "Developmental Regression and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in a Child With Autism". This describe Hanna Poling's well documented regression into what was described as "autism-like" situation. (Here's a link https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2536523/ )

2. Info about Child Neurologist, Dr. Andrew Zimmerman's statement that "“... in a subset of children, vaccine-induced fever and immune stimulation did cause regressive brain disease with features of autism spectrum disorder”. (Here's a link with some info https://www.icnapedia.org/speakers/3860-3860).
