Family to Receive $1.5M+ in First-Ever Vaccine-Autism Court Award

by Sharyl Atkinson, CBS News:

The first court award in a vaccine-autism claim is a big one. CBS News has learned the family of Hannah Poling will receive more than $1.5 million dollars for her life care; lost earnings; and pain and suffering for the first year alone.

In addition to the first year, the family will receive more than $500,000 per year to pay for Hannah’s care. Those familiar with the case believe the compensation could easily amount to $20 million over the child’s lifetime.

Hannah was described as normal, happy and precocious in her first 18 months.

Then, in July 2000, she was vaccinated against nine diseases in one doctor’s visit: measles, mumps, rubella, polio, varicella, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, and Haemophilus influenzae.

Afterward, her health declined rapidly. She developed high fevers, stopped eating, didn’t respond when spoken to, began showing signs of autism, and began having screaming fits. In 2002, Hannah’s parents filed an autism claim in federal vaccine court. Five years later, the government settled the case before trial and had it sealed. It’s taken more than two years for both sides to agree on how much Hannah will be compensated for her injuries.

In acknowledging Hannah’s injuries, the government said vaccines aggravated an unknown mitochondrial disorder Hannah had which didn’t “cause” her autism, but “resulted” in it. It’s unknown how many other children have similar undiagnosed mitochondrial disorder. All other autism “test cases” have been defeated at trial. Approximately 4,800 are awaiting disposition in federal vaccine court.

Time Magazine summed up the relevance of the Poling case in 2008: …(T)here’s no denying that the court’s decision to award damages to the Poling family puts a chink — a question mark — in what had been an unqualified defense of vaccine safety with regard to autism. If Hannah Poling had an underlying condition that made her vulnerable to being harmed by vaccines, it stands to reason that other children might also have such vulnerabilities.”

Then-director of the Centers for Disease Control Julie Gerberding (who is now President of Merck Vaccines) stated: “The government has made absolutely no statement indicating that vaccines are a cause of autism. This does not represent anything other than a very specific situation and a very sad situation as far as the family of the affected child.”

      Shall we dance around this some more at the cost of another 5,000 children and no chance of a normal life?
      Until the late 80′s kids pretty much just got a polio vaccine and penicillin shot for scarlet fever. People are born with immune systems that actually work and are designed to recover from these childhood, viruses. Some children never get them at all because of built in immunity’s passed down in their genetic make up already. This area of Western medicine needs some reworking, and changes in approach.

      Doctor Richard Blaylock has been apart of exposing of John D Rockefeller’s infiltration of medical schools as far in the past as 1900. He has shown with proof that these schools have been indoctrinated with pharmaceutical deceptive evidence that drugs can be or are the only resolution for human disease. Centuries of human experience in medicine prove otherwise. Herbs and food nutrients have been discovered called vitamins and minerals that the human body uses and needs to sustain healthy human life.

      When will doctors generally acknowledge that Doctor Blaylock is correct.
