I work in child care, and one of the little ones had her 18 month shots last week. Ever since then she has been inconsolable and non-stop screaming (the pain scream), hitting the other kids, hitting us teachers, just absolutely miserable. She can be sassy, but never mean. There was none of her usual sweet silliness last week.
Her mother messaged yesterday that she was staying home with a cough. An hour later, she frantically called my boss saying that little one was in an ambulance on the way to the hospital. They couldn’t get her heart rate under control, so she was helicoptered to the local Children’s Hospital. Her heart stopped on the way and they brought her back. No news on when she will be out of the hospital.
I looked up what the 18 month shots are. Hep A Hep B DTaP Polio And an optional Flu shot, which the child was given.
Every child I work with, after their shots, is HORRIBLE. It’s because they cannot communicate how their bodies feel. The worst is the infants. Stop the planet, I want to get off. 😢
You sound like you have researched vaccines. I have not, but I taught for 30 years. I never had an autistic student in our school until about 15 years ago. The numbers are growing almost exponentially. Why? Colored skittles? Bad diet? Vaccines tested individually but given in multiples? Bad luck? Inbreeding? Why?
One of the biggest reasons there are more kids diagnosed as Autistic in the past couple of decades is because the DSM criteria for autism changed drastically between the DSM IV and the DSM V. It expanded quite a bit, and included a large percentage of children who would before have been listed under "mentally retarded".
You'll notice that there are far fewer kids diagnosed as "mentally retarded" than there were a few decades ago. Using the same logic used to blame autism on vaccines, a person could say that vaccines prevent mental retardation. But that wouldn't be true, either.
And one of the reasons why we notice more autistic kids in schools now is because of changes to our educational system. We mainstream autistic children in "normal" classes more now, rather than keeping them segregated in special ed programs.
I think many people are having a knee jerk reaction to the covid vax nonsense and becoming critical of ALL vaccines, which I think is extremely foolish.
No need to throw the baby out with the bathwater over covid vaccines.
We've learned a lot about autism and identifying it in the last 15 years, with more understanding of how and why their brains function differently. There are more people trained in finding certain symptoms and diagnosing b individuals with autism. There's also more ways we understand treating it, or helping the kids and adults with their varieties of symptoms. There's good chances there's always been a decent number of people on the spectrum, it was just never as readily identifiable. We continue to learn a lot about the brain and neurotypical vs neurodivergent functioning.
lol.... you sounds like you are just copying and pasting shit from the first page of a search engine like google, or your a bot... regurgitate much?
