​Every parent deserves honesty. Every child deserves protection. Yet, when it comes to vaccine safety, history shows us a pattern of quiet revisions, concealed conversations, and decisions made far from public view. The 2000 Simpsonwood meeting stands as one of the clearest examples of this.

​In this new four-minute documentary by Dr. K. Paul Stoller, we are taken inside a closed-door gathering held on June 7, 2000—a meeting that brought together 52 of the most powerful people in public health: CDC leadership, FDA regulators, WHO officials, and top vaccine industry executives. What they reviewed that day was nothing short of explosive. A CDC epidemiologist, analyzing data from 100,000 children, found dramatically increased risks of autism, speech disorders, ADHD, and tics in children with the highest thimerosal exposure. According to the transcript, the autism risk reached up to 11.35 times higher in the most-exposed group .

​This was the “Generation Zero” analysis—stunning, urgent, and deeply inconvenient. What unfolded next, as the transcript reveals, was not a plan to protect children. It was a plan to protect the system.

Dr. Stoller narrates the event with precision, using only documented quotes and reconstructed moments from the 286-page transcript. Here’s what the video exposes:

​1. A Secret Meeting, Off-Site, to Avoid Scrutiny
Simpsonwood was intentionally held away from CDC headquarters, with no press, no parents, and no recording devices permitted. Officials believed this would shield them from public access laws, though the transcript was ultimately obtained anyway.
2. The Findings Were Clear — and Terrifying
The initial data showed massive increases in autism, ADHD, speech delays, and tics among children with higher mercury exposure. One quote from the transcript states plainly:
“This wasn’t a weak signal. This was louder than the link between smoking and lung cancer.”
3. The Focus Shifted From Safety to Damage Control
Rather than discussing how to reduce exposure or warn parents, large portions of the meeting centered on how to make the data less alarming:

• “How do we change the message from alarm to reassurance?”
• “We need to dilute the signal.”
• “We are in a bad fix from the standpoint of defending vaccines.”

4. Three Years of Data Manipulation Followed
Between 2000 and 2003, the dataset was repeatedly altered—adding and removing children, changing models, splitting categories—until the signal vanished. The final published paper claimed no association, and the lead author later took a position at GlaxoSmithKline.
5. Autism Rates Continued to Climb
Dr. Stoller highlights the real-world consequences:

• 1980: 1 in 10,000
• 2000: 1 in 150
• 2025: 1 in 31
• California boys: 1 in 12

“These are not normal numbers,” he says. “That’s not an epidemic. That’s a crime.”
6. In 2025, the CDC Quietly Changed Its Autism Statement
For decades, the CDC claimed vaccines do not cause autism. But in November 2025, they added an asterisk:
“Available studies have not ruled out the possibility that vaccines could cause autism in some children.”
This long-overdue admission underscores what Simpsonwood revealed all the way back in 2000: they never proved thimerosal was safe—they only made the evidence disappear.

​Simpsonwood is not just a historical footnote. It’s a window into how public health decisions have been shaped—not by transparency, but by what agencies feel the public can tolerate. As a pediatrician, I believe parents deserve the facts, the context, and the ability to ask questions without being dismissed.

This short film provides exactly that: documented truth. No speculation. No sensationalism. Just the words spoken behind closed doors and the consequences we are still living with today.

For decades, countless parents have voiced concerns that their children regressed into autism following routine childhood vaccinations. Instead of being heard, too many were dismissed or told the science was “settled.” As a pediatrician who has seen children every day for decades and documented real-world outcomes, I’ve long believed these families deserved respect—and rigorous scientific inquiry.

​This week, a major shift occurred.

The CDC has now revised the very statement it has used for years: the claim that “vaccines do not cause autism.”

And see the reporting that brought widespread attention to it here:

​This update is not a minor wording change. It is a direct acknowledgment that the blanket statement repeated for decades was not evidence-based.

These are the CDC’s own words, taken directly from their updated page:

• “The claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.”
• “Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities.”
• “Scientific studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines contribute to the development of autism.”
• The prior CDC statement violated the Data Quality Act, and the agency is now correcting it.
• There are no studies showing that any of the 20 doses of the seven infant vaccines—DTaP, HepB, Hib, IPV, PCV, rotavirus, influenza—do not cause autism.
• On the MMR vaccine, most of the published studies had serious methodological flaws and were retrospective designs that cannot prove causation.

​These are not interpretations or opinions—these are the CDC’s own positions as now written.

For years, the public was reassured that vaccines played no role in autism. The scientific reality is far more complex—and the CDC is now openly acknowledging that complexity.

This shift matters because:

• Parents were encouraged to rely on a statement the CDC now admits was not evidence-based.
• Physicians were asked to communicate certainty where none existed.
• Research that should have been prioritized was instead sidelined, ignored, or declared off-limits.

​The new CDC language restores a foundation for honest scientific inquiry, something our children deserve and parents have been demanding for years.

This moment calls for transparency and renewed commitment to uncovering the full truth about autism and vaccine risk. Parents deserve informed consent grounded in complete information—not assumptions, not conclusions drawn from incomplete evidence, and not statements made to “prevent vaccine hesitancy.”

The updated CDC page is a critical step toward honesty. Here is the link again for your own review: https://t.co/4EYR5Uetxa

Our job now is to remain vigilant, informed, and committed to scientific integrity—for the health and future of every child.

Are Vaccines a Major Cause of the Explosion of Autism in This Generation?
Proving cause as opposed to just an association requires at least three things:

We now have all three of these conditions met. Hundreds of thousands of parents can tell you without a doubt that the regression from normal development to severe autism followed their child’s routine vaccines given at the pediatric office. As a busy pediatrician caring for 15,000 active patients, I saw this in my own practice four years in a row, from 2004–2007. I published data showing no autism in the unvaccinated in my book The Vaccine-Friendly Plan and showed the massive increase in neurodevelopmental issues, allergies, and infections of all kinds found in the vaccinated when compared to the unvaccinated in this powerful, peer-reviewed study: “Relative Incidence of Office Visits and Cumulative Rates of Billed Diagnoses Along the Axis of Vaccination”.

​While the study was wrongfully retracted, my data has now been duplicated in the Ford Study of about 18,000 children and almost 2,000 unvaccinated, detailed in the documentary An Inconvenient Study.

​There are so many studies now that make it clear vaccines are a significant factor—and likely the key factor—in the massive rise in autism in our children. This article by the McCullough Foundation and our new book Vax Facts make one thing clear: vaccines are the key factor that parents can change to significantly reduce the likelihood of their child becoming autistic.

It is not just autism, but infant death (SIDS) and most chronic diseases in children that are triggered by the childhood vaccine schedule. Add the fact that not one vaccine on the schedule had proper safety testing—and that for every vaccine on the schedule your child is more likely to die from the vaccine than from the disease for which you are giving the vaccine—the choice on whether to vaccinate or not becomes easy.

While there are risks to vaccination and risks in some cases to not vaccinating, the odds of harm from vaccines are so massive in comparison to the odds of harm from not vaccinating that anyone who actually understands the science can easily make the decision not to vaccinate and feel good about it.

Our unvaccinated children are incredibly healthy and generally have minimal or no neurodevelopmental issues, allergies, eczema, or asthma—and they rarely get infections. It turns out it is the unvaccinated who are providing a protective shield for the vulnerable children and adults who have compromised immune systems, as it is sick vaccinated children—not the healthy unvaccinated—who are most likely to get those people who are immunocompromised sick.

​If you have had a belief in something for a long time and have been told something for so long that it becomes ingrained into you, it would seem that any other information is wrong. We live in a world of conflict. As new information comes forward, it is very scary for those who have believed something one way for so long to now do a 180 and discard that way of thinking.

If you have been in a box thinking that one side is safe, to move out of that box doesn’t feel good. So why have some people changed their thinking and now realize that the truth back then may not be the truth now? Well, there is an easy answer: their box was broken. That’s what happens to families who received vaccines for their children and something happened. Their child was negatively affected.

Consider the thousands of people who received the COVID shot and had a negative result—or are now dead—and the family has to rebuild their box of belief. Nothing changed for these people but getting the vaccine. Yet still, some people can’t go there.

​When your box has a very thick wallpaper of fear, then staying inside the box of fear feels safer… until your box gets broken.

​If a doctor tells me that my child will die if I don’t vaccinate them, that holds more power than someone who says they have run the numbers and there is more risk to vaccinating. If that were true, then why isn’t that on the news? If vaccines are so deadly, then why on earth are they still being used?

​We are told over and over again that you can prove anything you want to prove simply by manipulating the findings to prove what you want. So why should someone believe Dr. Paul, Dr. McCullough, and the other doctors who are speaking up? Many doctors are taking a deep dive to get to the truth—to save our children and the health of the world. In the process, they are treated horribly.

​It seems easy for Dr. Paul to say the above. Some have said he is crazy and that his thinking is killing babies. Seriously, people—he didn’t just think this up. It isn’t his thinking; it is seeing families over and over again with sick children. It is doing a study that shows health outcomes.

I tell parents to ask themselves: Why do families choose not to vaccinate? Why are you choosing to vaccinate? All I ask of a mom is to be willing to look at everything. Read the ingredients that are about to go into your child’s body—ingredients you can’t take out.

I heard someone ask why on earth you would put something into your body while you are pregnant that has such toxic ingredients. Why? Because someone told you that it will keep your baby safe. Because you don’t want anything to happen to your unborn child, so you eat healthy, take supplements, and don’t drink or do drugs because those cause harm.

​Someone is telling you that this shot going into your body helps your child. They aren’t telling you about the ingredients and the harm those ingredients can cause to an unborn child. Your hormones are racing, and if this is your first pregnancy—and you are young, or maybe it wasn’t a planned pregnancy—then the information coming at you is overwhelming and conflicting.

If you don’t have someone right next to you saying, Stop. Take a breath and look at all the information, then the doctor in the room becomes the person you listen to. They will tell you, This is what you need to do right now; you don’t even have to think about it.

​Trust me—I understand. I listened to the doctors. Also, it isn’t just the doctors that instill fear in us; it’s the media that supports mainstream medicine. If mainstream medicine was effective, then why are there so many ways to do things alternatively?

​Don’t forget about our friends and families. The ones who are in the box of fear and think things shouldn’t be changed will have a lot to say.

I could go on forever—and probably will in another post—but there is one question that I believe is the most important of all: Who is responsible for outcomes of anything that has to do with your child? It isn’t doctors, media, or even your family or friends—it is you.

​Information overload is a real thing. Listen to everything and then trust your own gut instinct. Whatever the decision is—it’s yours.

—Just a Mom

Friends, I want to invite you to join me for the worldwide premiere of a groundbreaking new documentary--An Inconvenient Study. This film takes a deep, honest look at the large-scale data from Henry Ford Health, which followed more than 18,000 children over ten years. The results are eye-opening and raise important questions about childhood health, chronic illness, and how vaccination choices may play a role.

For those of us who have long called for transparency in science, this is a must-see film. An Inconvenient Study courageously brings the data to light—data that challenges the current narrative and deserves open, thoughtful discussion.

​Please join me this Sunday, October 12th, for the worldwide online premiere at 5 p.m. PST / 8 p.m. EST at www.aninconvenientstudy.com. Following the screening, you’ll be able to watch the recorded Q&A from the earlier Los Angeles event, and afterward, you can download a copy of the film for free directly from the site.

​About the Film
An Inconvenient Study exposes what mainstream media and medical institutions have been reluctant to discuss. Drawing from the Henry Ford Health study, which tracked thousands of children over a decade, the film explores the connections between vaccination status and health outcomes.

Through candid interviews, clear data visualization, and expert commentary, this film reveals patterns that can no longer be ignored—higher rates of chronic conditions among vaccinated children and healthier outcomes in those who remained unvaccinated.

Rather than pushing fear or ideology, An Inconvenient Study calls for open scientific dialogue and transparency in research. It’s a courageous step toward understanding what’s truly driving today’s chronic illness epidemic—and a reminder that good science should never be silenced.

The worldwide online premiere begins Sunday, October 12th, at 5 p.m. PST / 8 p.m. EST on www.aninconvenientstudy.com.
Following the premiere, watch the recorded Q&A from the earlier Los Angeles event, and download your free copy of the film afterward directly from the site:

As a pediatrician, I’ve long raised concerns about the safety of the expanding CDC childhood vaccine schedule. Today, that schedule has ballooned to 72 doses by age 18—the highest among developed nations. Yet the shocking truth is this: the CDC has never studied the full schedule for safety in its entirety.

​That’s why I am honored to appear on the Independent Medical Alliance program, hosted by Dr. Liz Mumper, alongside attorney Rick Jaffe and my colleague Dr. Ken Stoller. Together, we discuss the landmark federal lawsuit now challenging the CDC to finally conduct the research it has long avoided.

​Rick Jaffe, Esq., is leading this case, representing both Dr. Stoller and myself as physician plaintiffs. Our professional lives have been upended simply for questioning vaccine policy and sharing concerns about the adverse outcomes we observed in patients. This legal effort is about more than us—it is about scientific accountability, parental rights, and the health of our children.

​I encourage you to watch the full program here and share it widely. This is a crucial conversation about transparency, evidence, and the future of pediatric health.

In 2016, journalist Del Bigtree convinced Marcus Zervos, MD, the head of infectious disease at Henry Ford Health, one of the most prestigious medical institutions in the world, to conduct the most thorough vaxxed vs. unvaxxed study that has ever been done. Dr. Zervos took up the challenge and ran the study to prove Del wrong about vaccines. What the study revealed was so horrifying that it was locked away, hidden from the public... until now.

But the study is only half of the story.

The data in the Ford study in question here is very revealing. This study looked at health outcomes for over 18,000 children over a ten-year period. There were over 1,000 unvaccinated children, which to my knowledge is the largest group of unvaccinated children ever studied. What did the data show? Don’t miss this movie!

Share this documentary with everyone you know and care about. We cannot make an informed decision about vaccines unless we have all the facts. This is the most important study to date on vaccines and the consequences to those who get vaccines when compared to those children who are not vaccinated.

Knowledge is power. While there is no perfect study, and many are already trying to discredit this study for methodological flaws, the data is still powerful and highly significant. You can choose to ignore it or remain uninformed, but by doing that you are putting your children in real danger of harm. The findings of this study match almost perfectly with the findings of my own study that was wrongfully retracted: https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/22/8674/pdf

​The growing body of evidence showing the disastrous health outcomes for the children who are vaccinated is simply too substantial to ignore. Get a copy of my latest book Vax Facts here: https://vaxfactsbook.com or anywhere books are sold.

Here are a few other books that I highly recommend you own to gain a deep understanding of vaccines, their history, and where we are at now:
