Dr. Paul Thomas, M.D. – Preserve Medical Freedom – Vaccines Linked to Autism

Dr. Paul Thomas in Oregon, prior to testifying in a committee hearing on proposed bill SB 442 to remove vaccine exemptions for children.

Health Impact News Editor Comments

Dr. Paul Thomas, M.D. was born in Portland Oregon, and grew up in Southern Africa. He has a masters degree in biology, an M.D. from Dartmouth Medical School, and completed his pediatric residency at the University of California, San Diego. He is a board-certified fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, and also carries board certifications in Addiction Medicine and Integrative Holistic Medicine. He started the Pediatric After-hours Clinic (now Pediatric ER) at Emanuel Children’s Hospital, where he also taught medical students and residents from 1988-1993.

Dr. Thomas is obviously knowledgeable in the area of immunization, as a practicing pediatrician and currently one of the few actual board-certified fellows of the American Academy of Pediatrics residing in the State of Oregon. He took time out of his busy schedule to appear at the hearing earlier this year before the Oregon Senate Committee on Health Care, regarding Bill SB 442, written by Oregon State Senator and physician Elizabeth Steiner Hayward, which seeks to remove all philosophical and religious exemptions to vaccines in the State of Oregon.

Here is Dr. Paul Thomas’ testimony and comments regarding his concerns about this proposed law:

Dr. Paul starts out his comments by mentioning how SB 442 will remove all philosophical and religious exemptions to vaccines, and that the only medical exemptions that would be allowed would be from “certain pre-selected medical providers.”

He states: “This is a travesty.”

Dr. Paul then stated why this bill is such a travesty:

This is powerful. This is important. This is for our children. We need to protect our children and preserve the right for freedom of choice, and the right to give informed consent when your child is about to get a vaccine.

Dr. Paul then begins his testimony by stating that he represents 11,000 patients and that 500 new babies come into his practice each month wanting informed consent about vaccines.

He states that it is his responsibility as a physician to point out the risks and benefits of every medical procedure, but that this proposed bill would not allow him to do this for his patients.

Next, Dr. Paul addresses the Hepatitis B vaccine routinely given to newborn babies in hospitals. He states that the amount of aluminum contained in this vaccine is 10 to 15 times the limit allowable for infants.

He provided handouts for each committee member showing the peer-reviewed studies linking toxic aluminum exposure to brain damage and autism.

According to Dr. Paul, the only people who need the Hepatitis B vaccine are moms who are positive for Hepatitis B, which is less than 1% in Oregon and the rest of the country:

So we are going to poison the other 99%, and it is going to be mandated by this law, so that we cover that 1%. And our Ob Gyns are doing a masterful job. We know who needs the vaccine and who doesn’t.

Dr. Paul also pointed out a study conducted in Norway that followed 85,000 pregnancies over 6 years which tracked folate intake and autism.

Norway only had a 1 in 1000 rate of autism, while the U.S. had a rate of 1 out of 100. As Dr. Paul looked for the differences in newborn pediatric care between the U.S. and Norway, he noticed that Norway does not give the Hepatitis B vaccine at birth like the U.S. does.

Dr. Paul then made the stunning statement that in his practice he currently has over 1000 kids at least 3 years old, and there are no new cases of autism, while nationally, his peers in pediatric care are seeing 1 out of 50 children on the autism spectrum. He tells the committee that we can greatly reduce the rate of autism by understanding that increased vaccines are in fact correlated with increased rates of autism. He referenced the 2004 CDC study that supposedly showed no link, but which now is known to show an increased link to autism among African-American boys after the release of all the data sets last year (2014).

Dr. Paul ends his brief testimony before the committee by stating that the “science is not settled” linking vaccines to autism, and that we need more studies.

Dr.Paul Thomas,

I want to personally thank you for your service. And, to bring You some clarity about where this push for forced vaccines is coming from. I was online researching the Pros and Cons of vaccinating children. I am a long time Activist and Advocate for Alternative and Natural Medicine, since 1965. I watch dog the FDA to keep Vitamin C on the Market and was able to stop the passage of the National Health Care Plan for a short time because of not enough wellness. And, then worked tirelessly to get a Natural Doctor and the Holistic Wellness concept understood for Holistic treatments. I own my a Petition Company and my family has been involved for 35 years. Here in CA, I am leading the way by training Fed Up Moms, who just lost their Parental and Religious Exemption and Constitutional Rights in SB277 bill passed into Law by Governor Jerry Brown. Moms are standing up in CA and using the Ballot Initiative By Petition Process to Veto by the Will and the Power of the People and Recalls of the Senator-Doctor Pan “bought” by CA Medical Association and Big Pharma in California (medical mafia). When 2000 mothers were silenced and the lobbyist were allowed to speak. My amendment for waiting for the immune system to fully develop, before beginning vaccines….. s-p-a-c-i-n-g…. and giving one vaccine at a time…. and allergy testing first, along with antioxidants to both mother and infants and children. HPV and Hep B is on the CDC Schedule within the first 15 hours of birth is a killer of infants. America has the highest infant mortality and first day mortality rates of all developed countries. These vaccines are given without the knowledge or permission of parents and records are withheld, too. 
The corruption exists at every level, city, county, state and federal levels of government along with  . 100,000 signatures have disappeared from the Elections office in California….15 boxes of signatures. The  incompetency and corruption of the Elections Office in every county across America needs to investigated and Public Transparency to prevail. 
**I just want You to know that The World Health Organization ( Who.org.) is behind this massive out reach to force vaccines in this country and globally. I read their Sales Promotion PDF. ** It was up for a few minutes and then it disappeared. The jest of their Sales Promotion for 2015-2025, ” Come buy and Sponsor our vaccines to secure shared profits of trillions of dollars. How do we intend to do secure your future? By introducing “Forced Vaccines Laws” at the Congressional, State, and Heads of Countries, globally.  And, by focusing on middle income families. 
The graphs shows out reach for manufacturing vaccines in the countries of USA enemies. And, vaccines will be imported into the United States by the TPP.  Russia, Cuba, Philippines, China, Vietnam, Japan, and India, Korea. 
Atheist,  Bill Gates has been on TV delighted because he is for zero population and the huge tax deductions coming his way. We know that the Who.org has been caught “falsely stating the effectiveness and safety of vaccines” and drumming up business for “false outbreaks” to increase sales and to justify their existence. 
The PDF shows Merck sales climbing from the millions back into billions for the Killer Guardasil, after buying our State Reps to pass the Anti-Parent Consent Bill giving the MD’s the finale decision maker on vaccinations in California.  Their sales dropped when it was learned by parents that young daughters were becoming physically impaired and deaths were reported. 32 died in the clinical trials and the FDA agreed to Fast Track it for approval in 15 months. We know that Governor Rick Perry tried to force this vaccine on his  Young female Constituents. Why? Because he is or was on the Merck Board. 
I don’t know if you remember when GW Bush Sr. signed into law a bill giving manufacturers of vaccines the right to hide or not list all the ingredients in vaccines when it was discovered that “peanut proteins” was the cause of death of infants, toddlers, and children. Why? Because he was on the Merck Board, too.

Take Care,
Sandi White in CA.  Message me on Face book or email me if you would like to talk.

CALLING ALL DOCTORS   do the right thing  DO No HARM  Speak up

Linda March 7, 2015 at 10:48 pm - Reply

I thank all the Drs. who have expressed their concerns, that is their oath, DO NO HARM not hide away for fear of the drug companies although I admit they are to be feared and when you read the details of the class action law suit in Australia over vioxx where some of their tactics were expressed in their own emails…discredit, neutralize, ruin them where they live.  They wonder why no thinking people no longer trust them.  It sounds more like the mafia. Thank you Dr. Thomas, I wish I had you for my children when they were younger.

You are a courageous man.  I thank you for giving my family a voice.  I thank you for all that you are putting on the line to speak and share truth.  I pray you’re license does not get revoked.  Thank you!

It’s not that they “do want to” acknowledge a vaccine/autism link,  it’s that they have a direct conflict of interest and are protecting their crimes with more lies.  Protecting their M O N E Y while they’ve thrown our children off the cliff.

Dr.Thomas and every other person who is stepping out of their comfort zone to spread the truth is my hero. They are America’s Real Heroes much to the chagrin of the death merchants who hate such people’s guts. Keep up the great work  Sir,  my family looks up to people like you.  ” Three things cannot remain hidden for long – the sun, the moon and the truth ” Buddha. America is on the path to awakening. This bill will be defeated in OR senate setting a great precedent for 49 others. Truth shall prevail. It always has , it always will.God Bless and Namaste.

Aluminum is a known neurotoxin. I wish every elected official who wants to mandate these shots would receive 10,000 shots of the vaccines known for the most adverse events. Why should they be left out?

Aluminum vaccine adjuvants: are they safe?
Tomljenovic L1, Shaw CA.
 
Abstract

Aluminum is an experimentally demonstrated neurotoxin and the most commonly used vaccine adjuvant. Despite almost 90 years of widespread use of aluminum adjuvants, medical science’s understanding about their mechanisms of action is still remarkably poor. There is also a concerning scarcity of data on toxicology and pharmacokinetics of these compounds. In spite of this, the notion that aluminum in vaccines is safe appears to be widely accepted. Experimental research, however, clearly shows that aluminum adjuvants have a potential to induce serious immunological disorders in humans. In particular, aluminum in adjuvant form carries a risk for autoimmunity, long-term brain inflammation and associated neurological complications and may thus have profound and widespread adverse health consequences. In our opinion, the possibility that vaccine benefits may have been overrated and the risk of potential adverse effects underestimated, has not been rigorously evaluated in the medical and scientific community. We hope that the present paper will provide a framework for a much needed and long overdue assessment of this highly contentious medical issue.

Thank you very much Dr. Paul. You are a very important figure to fight for our rights to have freedom of choice whether to vaccinate or not. Vaccinations are all harmful upon my research. There is no reason to vaccinate a healthy child, adult and especially newborn babies. THIS IS MURDER!!! I’m sending my prayers of appreciation, protection, faith and hope. I am behind you and support you all the way. God Bless you and your families.Namaste.

Not only is it clear that an autism link exists because of elevated aluminum, a known neurotoxin, which is far above any safety limits, a court in Italy has recently ruled that there is in fact an autism link to vaccines. Just because the American politicians, corporations and their doctor/scientists’ don’t want to acknowledge it, other courts in other countries are making the findings for themselves. And won’t it look bad for America when the rest of the world finds out what American companies have been knowingly doing to their children? If the US had a bad PR image before, just how bad it will be once this gets out. These knowing acts of harming children is criminal, and should be prosecuted as such. Will our US government step up to the plate to curb these vaccine profiteers?  And as for mainstream news, they can hijack a whole news hour for the overuse of steroids and juicing in athletes, but they can’t say a word about a court ruling in Italy, where the Court held that Vaccines can and do in fact cause autism. See article on Italian ruling that was never published or discussed by mainstream news in the US!

ALSO FOR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION: THE US GOVERNMENT HAS OPENED A PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD–UNTIL March 9, 2015 ON THE PROPOSED EXPANSION OF VACCINES TO ADULTS. If you thought Autism was bad enough, think of the Alzheimer’s that will be put into high gear with the added aluminum adjuvant. Here is the website to comment:
