Surge in Babies Born Without Brains in Washington State
Mike Adams / Natural News
(NaturalNews) There is something seriously wrong in the fertile Yakima Valley region of Washington. A surging number of babies are being born with major birth defects, and the reasons why are eluding state health officials.
As reported by CNN, a nurse in the area, Sara Barron, was the first to report on a particularly horrifying condition: anencephaly — a condition in which babies are born without much of their brain and skull.
“I was just stunned,” she told the network in an interview. “Three in a couple-of-month period of time… that’s unheard of, and they have such tragic, terrible outcomes.”
Her shocking finding and report eventually prompted an investigation by the state health department. Investigators found some disturbing results.
Over a three-year period, there were 23 cases concentrated in three southern Washington counties — Yakima, Benton and Franklin. That’s a rate (8.4 per 10,000 live births) that is four times the national average (2.1 per 10,000 live births), CNN reported.
What could be causing such a phenomenon? Is it just one of those weird coincidences, or is something more sinister at play?
Mandy Stahre, with the Washington State Department of Health, conducted the investigation into the high rates of anencephaly. She says she and other investigators are stumped.
“We have not found an answer, and that’s a very frustrating part, because this is such a devastating diagnosis for a woman to have,” she told CNN.
Barron, however, says she wonders if state health authorities did not find anything because they didn’t look hard enough at all possible causes.
‘We have to weigh how invasive we want to be’

I knew this all along they are called Obama Voters
Then maybe we can stop importing people from California….. Bazing!
No actually my brother and his wife just had a baby. While my sister in law was pregnant her doctor prescribed her 3 medications that cause severe birth defects including the one that causes the symptoms described here. I dont recall the name sorry.
Fortunately my continuous harping has sunk in on some of my family members who research all medications they are prescribed before taking them.
