Lavender extract causes autism

The burdens of sacrifice you bear for the good of many are beyond measure.

Please, I'm no hero, I put my pants on 2 legs at a time like everybody else.

Lol.

Of course- many symptoms and a larger pattern of gulf war veterans suffering GWI DO follow exposure to chemical agents. That doesn’t explain ALL cases or ALL symptoms though as far as we can tell. So it’s quite possible- and quite likely- that “GWI” might be caused by a combination or multiple factors and individual sensitivity and exposure to each. So we can’t completely rule out vaccinations as a cause or contributor- but we can say that there is a huge difference between both the vaccines and circumstances between gulf war era military and modern civilian vaccine panels.

What’s more- up into 2010 the military was still administering these vaccines, and certain civilian agencies had used them as well- without new reports of GWI like symptoms. What’s more- the only FDA road block wasn’t for safety but for potency of the vaccine. There is a theory concerning a “bad batch” of vaccine in the gulf war period that seems to be one of the most credible cases as to how GWI could be linked to the vaccine- as well as a theory that this early vaccine was somehow different- or that the vaccine was substituted and soldiers were made part of some experiment. These are unlikely but possible- but still aren’t an incrimination of vaccination but of the ethics and protections afforded towards our troops.

Incidents like the emergence of GWI, the “Tuskegee experiments” or the use of clinics as fronts for intelligence gathering are concerning and a reminder that when we put our medical care in the health of another person we are taking a leap of faith that may be abused. None is inherently an indictment of modern medicine however- but a social and political indictment as well as one of the human condition.
