BESTSELLING AMERICAN AUTHOR
DAVID KIRBY TO VISIT UK IN JUNE

-- Journalist Who Covers the Autism-Vaccine Debate to Speak About Political
and Scientific Developments in the US and Updates to His Book "Evidence of
Harm"-
David Kirby, the New York based investigative journalist and author of the
NY Times Bestseller, "Evidence of Harm, Mercury in Vaccines and the Autism
Epidemic - A Medical Controversy," will visit the United Kingdom on the
4th - 6th of June to discuss recent developments in the vaccine-autism
debate in the United States.
Mr. Kirby, a former contributor to The New York Times and a regular writer
for the popular international online blog, The Huffington Post, will give a
free public lecture on Wednesday 4th June, 6:30-10PM at Regent Hall, 275
Oxford Street, London. He will also attend a book signing and speak with
members of the UK media, among other activities, while in the country.

Among the subjects to be addressed by Mr. Kirby are:

a.. A recent case in the US Vaccine Court in which the federal government
conceded that vaccines induced autism in one little girl - and updates on
other cases in the court.
a.. Growing evidence of a link between mitochondrial dysfunction and
autistic regression, and case studies of several ASD children with
mitochondrial issues.
a.. State-of-the-art research underway at top universities on the
connection between environmental toxins, mitochondrial function, oxidative
stress, glutathione depletion, neuro-inflammation and autistic
encephalopathy.
a.. Declarations by all 3 US Presidential candidates that autism is
epidemic and calling for more research into vaccines and mercury as possible
causes.
a.. Recent studies linking ASD risk with heavy metals and other
contaminants in air pollution.

The visit is sponsored by several US autism organizations: Generation
Rescue, Autism Research Institute, National Autism Association, Coalition
for SAFE MINDS, and Talk About Curing Autism.

"Evidence of Harm" debuted on The New York Times bestseller list in 2005,
and is still widely read today. It won the Investigative Reporters and
Editors Award in 2005 for Best Book. Kirby has appeared on NBC's Meet the
Press, CNN's Larry King Live, NBC's The Today Show, MSNBC's Imus in the
Morning, CNN Headline News, Air America, and hundreds of other radio and
television stations around the world. He has been invited to speak at the US
Federal Claims Court's Judicial Conference, this November in Washington, DC.


A list of other appearances will be issued next week. More information

many of us would not consider a "journalist" as a good or reliable source of
info on medical topics

plus...this guy is doing the circuits such as Larry King to sell his books

come back when a real educated person has something to say

journalists simply collect info..then give it a spin to fit their needs

next you will suggest we read novels like those written by Stephen
King...good writer...but a fictionionalist no less

Well, yes, it would be rather a slur upon King (not to my
taste, but money talks) to imply that you would recommend him.

However, that's not what "argumentum ad hominem" means.

You pharma trolls have your own definition, so you can keep it as your main
'argument'

Attacking the messenger to ignore the message is pretty simple to understand

Quite true. Professor Grinker's book is written well, and is from a
father of an autistic child.
