In summary, it is possible that either the MMR or the oral polio vaccines, by mechanisms described above, may induce a process of encephalitis or brain inflammation, which may be highly prevalent but as yet rarely recognized for its true nature. Crude virus preparations, such as some in common use at the present time, are also vulnerable to frightful mishaps of contamination and misidentification. With this sobering warning, made over 3 decades ago, it may sadly prove to be prophetic for what we are seeing today. If this process is taking place, something we cannot know until appropriate research is done, there predictably will be additional increases in autism beyond that already taking place, should the process be continued into yet another third generation. Time may prove that vaccine programs went awry when they deviated from the most basic of all medical ethics, the right of parents to accept or reject vaccines for their children.
Freedom of choice provides a system of checks and balances now lacking.
At the very least, this would provide the parents the power to compel better safety screening of vaccines. The government should stop violating the right of informed consent, or the parents' right to accept or reject vaccines for their children based on full and uncensored disclosure of pros and cons. Today, we have a system in which vaccine production by the pharmaceutical companies is largely self-regulated. Naturally these companies are interested in profits from their products which, in itself, is not wrong. In closing, it may be appropriate to cite an item which, though seemingly small in itself, may be indicative of the problems with which we are faced.
