疫苗惹禍!女童疑引發自閉症
民視新聞網 更新日期:2008/03/07 16:59
長久以來，醫學界對於兒童疫苗與自閉症之間有無關連，一直爭論不休，如今美國聯邦官員終於首度承認，喬治亞州有一名九歲女童因為注射疫苗，導致體內的潛在疾病加重，間接引發了類似自閉症的症狀。這將是美國第一起獲得國賠的類似病例。不過當局也強調這只是個案，並重申兒童疫苗很安全。據統計，美國的八歲兒童中，每一百五十人就有一人罹患泛自閉症障礙症候群，導致社交行為及溝通出現障礙。不少家長都懷疑，是疫苗裡一種名為【硫柳汞】的防腐成份，導致原本健康的孩子罹患自閉症，因此向政府提出索賠官司。不過至今並沒有研究顯示，自閉症與含有【硫柳汞】的疫苗有任何關連。而自1999年起，【硫柳汞】這種成份也不再出現在例行性施打的兒童疫苗裡，但美國的自閉症病例還是持續攀升。（民視新聞，綜合報導）

Re: 疫苗惹禍!女童疑引發自閉症
疫苗導致自閉症 美家長獲判國賠
〔編譯魏國金／美聯社密瓦爾基六日電〕美國衛生官員承認，幼兒疫苗使一名罹患罕見粒線體疾病的九歲女童病情惡化；最終將使患者出現類似自閉症的症狀。官員也承認，她將獲得聯邦疫苗傷害基金的賠償。
女童罹患罕見粒線體疾病
美國衛生暨人類服務部一再主張，幼兒疫苗安全無虞，該單位的委託律師蘭濟表示，上述案件純屬個例，政府「尚未承認疫苗引發自閉症」。雖然如此，自閉症兒童的父母視該案為一項勝利。
一天之內注射五種疫苗
理應獲得賠償的喬治亞州女童患有粒線體疾病，該疾病將損害細胞消耗營養的能力，因此往往引發腦部運作的問題。檔案顯示，二○○○年某天，女童注射了五種疫苗，結果加劇了其粒線體異常，並使她易於產生新陳代謝問題，而該問題的臨床症狀顯現為帶有「泛自閉症障礙症候群」的腦部功能惡化。
代表逾一千兩百個家庭，提出疫苗傷害索賠官司的律師康威說︰「這是一個開始，每一案件必然就個別事實進行審理，然而該案顯示，政府已承認疫苗引發的這些傷害，在生物學上是可能的。」
全美近五千個家庭就幼兒自閉症與其他發展性障礙，向政府提出賠償。他們將禍首歸咎於疫苗與疫苗中的含汞保存劑硫柳汞。硫柳汞一度廣泛應用於防止疫苗遭細菌感染，然而自二○○一年起，它僅用於某些流感疫苗上。部分求償案宣稱，一次注射多種的疫苗所累積的作用，恐造成幼兒傷害。
疫苗國賠案首見自閉症
這些訴訟都在「疫苗法庭」進行審理，該法庭得以從國會成立的疫苗傷害基金，撥款給判賠的受害者。除了針對疫苗受害者，該基金同時也保護藥商免於重創，藉此確保疫苗的供應充足。
疫苗法庭的舉證不若傳統法庭的嚴格，並且是依據證據力作出判決。自疫苗傷害基金一九八八年成立以來，約判賠九百五十件案例，其中未有自閉症案。
==============================
自由時報的報導比較完整
這個案例比較像是藥害救濟的補償而不是賠償
接種疫苗是國家政策 是保護人民 增進國民健康
如果有特異體質因此而受傷害者
就會有一筆基金 針對類似個案給於補償
其實婦產科的無過失補償也是類似的精神

Re: 疫苗惹禍!女童疑引發自閉症
日本腦炎疫苗也是用thimerosal作保存劑
針對這個新聞
還好有人出來信心喊話
The CDC, American Academy of Pediatrics, Institute of Medicine and other prestigious medical organizations maintain there is no known link between vaccines and autism.
Studies published in the New England Journal of Medicine and elsewhere also have found no link.
Even after thimerosal was removed from infant vaccines, the autism rate has continued to climb.

Re: 疫苗惹禍!女童疑引發自閉症
這篇報導顯然不符實情
罹患粒線體疾病的兒童只要有代謝需求突然大增的情形
都會因為他們粒線體能量供應的不足而引起身體傷害
腦部、心臟、內分泌系統等就是最容易受傷的器官系統
接種多種疫苗後如果引起發燒、嚴重局部發炎等反應
自然可能使病情惡化
但如果得到自然感染，尤其是流感
則其惡化會更為猛暴
所以他們更需要流感疫苗來預防
這名個案的自閉症症狀應該並非典型的自閉症
只是他腦部受傷之後出現類似症狀而已
而在這一段時間該個案可能得到其他疾病惡化
很難明確跟疫苗扯上關係
更與thimerosal (硫柳汞)無關
歐美有些國家停用thimerosal
自閉症發生率仍然持續攀升
這是兩者之間無因果關係的強烈證據
Vaccine case draws new attention to autism debate
2008.3.7
ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- The parents of a 9-year-old girl with autism said Thursday that their assertion that her illness was caused by childhood vaccines has been vindicated by the federal government's decision to compensate them.
"We are very pleased with the government's decision," Hannah Poling's father, Dr. Jon Poling, a neurologist in private practice in Athens, Georgia, told reporters Thursday. "It has been eight difficult and heartbreaking years since our daughter's injury."
A federal program intended to compensate victims of injuries caused by vaccines concluded last November that Hannah Poling's underlying illness that had predisposed her to symptoms of autism was "significantly aggravated" by the vaccinations she received as a toddler and that her family should therefore be compensated.
How much the compensation should be has not been decided.
But public health officials quickly countered that the decision in no way supports the couple's claim.
"The government has made absolutely no statement indicating that vaccines are a cause of autism," said Dr. Julie Gerberding, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in a conference call with reporters.
"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."
Parents should continue to get their children immunized, she said: "This is proven to save lives."
The decision by the Department of Health and Human Services' Division of Vaccine Injury Compensation had been sealed and was made available to the public only recently, when it was posted on an autism advocacy group's Web site. I-Report: Are you living with autism? Tell us your story
Hannah, who was born in December 1998, was "precocious" during her first 18 months, said her mother, Terry Poling.
She said her daughter had been recruited in the spring of 2000 to participate as a peer in a program for children with disabilities.
But within 48 hours after receiving nine routinely administered childhood vaccines in July 2000, the girl's health rapidly declined, she said.
"We knew something was wrong," said the registered nurse, who was then working as a trial attorney.
More disturbing behavior followed, including staring at lights, running in circles, looking at fans -- all symptoms of autism, she said. "When my husband saw this, his heart just broke," Terry Poling said.
"We knew that Hanna's beautiful, inquisitive mind wasn't coming back," said Dr. Poling, who gave up his job at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore for private practice, which offered him more time with this family. Terry Poling gave up her job as a trial attorney to take care of her daughter full time. Watch more from Terry Poling at the news conference »
That summer, Hannah did indeed participate in the early intervention program, but "instead of being a peer that year, she was one of the multi-intensive needs children," Terry Poling said.
In 2002, the couple filed their case with what is known as the vaccine court, alleging that the vaccines caused her autism.
In addition, she was diagnosed with a disorder of the mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cell, Jon Poling said.
The fact that his wife also has the disorder yet displays no signs of autism suggests that his daughter's symptoms are not genetically caused, he said.
Instead, he said, Hannah's inborn mitochondrial problem may have been aggravated either by the vaccines or by the vaccine preservative thimerosal, which contains mercury, he said.
Numerous studies have shown no link between illness and the vaccines, public health officials have long contended.
In 2007, the case, which had been consolidated with other claims, was designated as a potential test case, said the Polings' lawyer, Cliff Shoemaker.
Though the family would be willing to make public the facts of the case, the rules of the court do not allow that, Shoemaker said.
"To the extent that their story is familiar to countless other families of autistic children, if this offers any hope or comfort to those parents, then they will be satisfied," he said about his clients.
He noted that nearly 5,000 other autism claims are pending in the court, which was set up in the 1980s to pay for vaccine-related injuries.
"Our primary concern is our daughter's welfare," said Jon Poling, who added that he felt "compelled to share information with all the other families out there who are wondering what this case means to them."
Shoemaker said his clients do not oppose vaccines. "What we are all in favor of is safe vaccines," he said, calling for the removal of thimerosal from all vaccines. "If there is any question or doubt, then it should not be there."
Thimerosal was removed from infant vaccines as a precaution following a 1999 agreement involving the Public Health Service, the American Academy of Pediatrics and vaccine manufacturers, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says.
Meanwhile, the Autism Omnibus Proceedings are expected to resume in May, with evidence about thimerosal.
The CDC estimates one in 150 U.S. children is born with autism.
