JENNY McCARTHY: JULIE GERBERDING MUST GO!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By Jenny McCarthy (reprinted from www.ageofautism.org)
I'm asking all parents and autism groups to join me in demanding Julie
Gerberding's immediate resignation as Director of the CDC.
On Monday, March 10th, beginning at 9:00am Eastern Daylight Time,
let's all start calling the White House and ask President Bush & Laura
Bush to demand Julie Gerberding's resignation for incompetence during
the autism epidemic.
The White House switchboard can be reached at: 202-456-1414. Also, on
the same day, please call your local Congressperson and Senators from
your state and ask them to call for her resignation, too.
Julie Gerberding has led the CDC for 6 years during a time when the
autism epidemic has only gotten worse. Despite tens of thousands of
children who declined just like Hannah Poling, Ms. Gerberding stood
before cameras yesterday defiant, cold, and defensive. Where is her
humanity in the face of such tragedy? Why couldn't she have said, "We
at CDC want to make sure what happened to Hannah doesn't happen to any
other children, we want to make vaccines safe"? Rather than listen to
the heartbreaking stories of so many parents, you can be sure that Ms.
Gerberding is spending her time right now trying to get the Spin
Machine up and running to minimize, confuse, and deceive the American
public.
The autism epidemic won't end until we fix the vaccine schedule by
reducing total vaccines, separating shots, waiting until our kids are
older to begin shots, greening our vaccines, and screening for at-risk
kids. Ms Gerberding has stood by and watched self-interested parties
more than triple our vaccine schedule and I'm certain her inactivity
to help our kids will continue.
The chances of Ms. Gerberding taking the radical steps to reform the
CDC and reform our vaccine schedule to make it kid-safe are zero! We
need a new CDC Director who is an open-minded reformer and who
recognizes that we are experiencing an epidemic of autism, which Ms.
Gerberding has never publicly admitted.
Please, parents and national autism organizations, let's all help make
our voices heard on Monday.
Thank you,
Jenny McCarthy
