Report on Autism Prevalence in Canada Mirrors Vaccination Coverage Rates in Different Provinces

3/30/2018

IN BRIEF

First report on autism prevalence in Canada shows Newfoundland and Labrador have highest numbers of kids with autism. They also have the highest vaccine coverage rates.  The Yukon had the lowest autism rates and the lowest vaccine coverage. 
By Anke Zimmermann, BSc, FCAH

National Autism Spectrum Disorder Surveillance System (NASS)

The National Autism Spectrum Disorder Surveillance System (NASS) just released it first report ever: Autism Spectrum Disorder Amoung Children and Youth in Canada 2018. This surveillance report is “Made in Canada” and provides a first reporting of national data and information to improve our understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in Canada. It is based on data collected in 2015.

NASS compiles administrative data from the health, education and social services sectors for children and youth (aged 5-17 years) who have a confirmed ASD diagnosis.

Overall incidence rate of autism was one in 68 children, with the age group of 1-4 having grown the most. The report found that boys were 4.1 times more likely to be affected as girls. 

Seven of Canada’s 13 provinces and territories provided information for 2015, including six provinces (British Columbia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Quebec) and one territory (Yukon). As the figure below shows, ASD prevalence in 2015 varied among the seven regions, with the highest prevalence noted in the three provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador (1 in 57), Prince Edward Island (1 in 59) and Quebec (1 in 65). In comparison, prevalence was substantially lower in the Yukon territory (1 in 125).

Autism Rates in the Different Provinces

Picture

Why are the numbers in Labrador and Newfoundland the highest?

Well, there is another interesting Canadian report available on vaccination coverage rates in the different provinces in Canada, called Vaccine Coverage in Canadian Children, published in 2013 by the very same Public Health Agency of Canada. 

Guess who had the highest vaccination rates? Labrador and Newfoundland. And the lowest? The Yukon. An very close mirror to the autism rate statistics. Please see below a rendering of their table for MMR vaccine uptake. You can also read the whole report here. 
TABLE 7: Estimated vaccination coverage for measles, mumps, and rubella by two years of age across provinces and territories—childhood National Immunization Coverage Survey, 2013, by 2 years of age

Measles, Mumps Rubella, percentages vaccinated

                                                                Measles 1-2 doses Mumps 1-2 doses Rubella 1- 2 doses
Newfoundland and Labrador 95.1                                95.1                              95.1 
Prince Edward Island                  90.2                                90.2                              90.2  
Nova Scotia                                       85.8                                85.5                              85.5
New Brunswick                              92.3                                 92.3                             92.3 
Québec                                                90.6                                 90.6                             90.6 
Ontario                                                92.6                                 92.0                             92.0
British Columbia                            86.9                                 86.9                             87.6 
Yukon                                                    85.2                                 85.2                             85.2 

Canada overall                                 89.6                                 89.2                              89.2

Other Vaccines

Vaccine coverage for other vaccines was very similar with highest vaccination coverage for all  vaccines in Labrador and Newfoundland and lowest in the Yukon, with the other provinces in between. You can read the whole vaccine coverage report right here.

Correlation and Causation

This is a very interesting finding with as yet unknown repercussions.  Although we all know that correlation does not equal causation, a plausible association between two variables is generally an important clue worth investigating.

The substantially lower ASD prevalence in regions that happen to have markedly lower vaccine coverage is one such clue.  

It would behoove Canada’s public health officials to take a closer look at their own data and start taking meaningful steps to study vaccinated versus unvaccinated children in order to shed more light on these concerning issues.

Have 20 yo son with DS who was vac per schedules. 2010 onset behavioral changes with increased aggression, loss of speech and eye contact, consistent with ASD. Charlie is total care 24/7. His spirit has changed from warm, open and compliant to fearful, confused, angry, defiant, dangerous.
The medical system knows nothing of the spirit and with a non-verbal pt as described in Charlie the system's only offering is meds or ECT. Thus, the entrapment of my son in a closed system designed to .......(finish the sentence).
Please pray for Charlie. See: Psalm 20:1-5

Thank You for being one of the few (sadly) voices of reason that I've been able to find since the NASS report came out in Canada. Although, its all over the US news.
Highest ASD rates in Canada have highest vaccination rates... I wonder what this 1 in 42 in boys truly is. Ontario hasn't reported, or several other provinces. They seem very pleased with this report. Although it does not address....Why.

Thank you for your note. Yes, it's a smoking gun, but nobody in a position of authority here is likely going to acknowledge the problem at this time. Not all provinces participated, I don't know why either. I think they are pleased because it's the first time Canada has published any reports on autism incidence.

In the mid 1990's I was told by a doctor of naturopathy in Austria that he had serious concerns about immunization. He claimed that every immunized child develops a sub-clinical encephalitis. In most cases the child recovers reasonably well. In some cases there is lasting damage and in rare cases the consequences are catastrophic. He said that the Austrian authorities (at the time) ran a facility outside of Innsbruck where the worst cases are kept hidden from the world. From what I remember he said that the body's reaction to the immunization results in the myelin sheath protecting the nerves being damaged.
I have no idea about the truth or otherwise of these statements but I have followed the discussion. I agree that it is nearly impossible to engage in a study of this subject due to the intense pressure and vilification of anyone suggesting that there could be a problem.

I have aspergers, I was "form oned", and got the full treatment, and then was put on ODSP, while in my 50s. Contrary to all the doctors opinions, I found out the facts for myself from their own data, which they ignore.

Well, my doctor does not ignore me NOW, because I proved everything I am about to say from pubmed documents, and MY own medical and family history. But she/they will not change anything for the next person who comes through the door looking to find the kind of results I have gotten, only to find the much less significant results available in that "corporate" office.

They are making billions from incorrectly treating chronic diseases which show up in various forms, according to the type of person, susceptibility, and lifestyle. Many of those treatments cause seemingly unrelated issues then and later.

What I have learned, while under careful medical scrutiny btw (right in front of their damn noses I mean), is that it's all about histamine receptors, and the resulting nociception, and inflammation, and sometimes things like exploding mast cells, and also what all that produces.

All that effects the neuro transmitters, AND receptors in the gut, the CNS, the brain, and everywhere else histamine is involved. There is also a waterfall effect from there on down the line too.

This connects a whole bunch of chronic inflammation based 'diseases" and the related psychologically defined "problem" states to the same cause.

The "pattern based" immune system brain takes over as it does when one is in a "fever" type state, while under attack by viruses, allergens, bugs or fire and the can't figured out WTF?[sic] is actually happening. (The asperger touch avoidance twitch, or the avoidance of eye contact reflex, are examples of this)

Because the immune system can't figure out why all the alarm systems are screaming, it doesn't calm back down, and runs on like a stuck toilet.

Then you get all the resulting symptoms that are connected to all those whacked out systems...and the expensive institutions that deal with the consequences of that, the GOVERNMENT, Hospitals, Mental health institutions, the Penal system, the Universities, Investors and Govt PENSION funds.and those BANKERS.

The Good News is that you can OFTEN treat this all with doses of natural items, which includes specific spices, some herbs and weeds, supplements and vitamins, apple cider vinegar, and magnesium chloride seawater, and avoidance of certain things which add to these issues, and EDUCATION. ESPECIALLY for the people around people who are on the spectrum.

After the disease itself, the major obstacles to dealing with this situation successfully are all the people who do not know what they are doing. Most mean well, BUT FAR WORSE, there are the ones who are making a humongous profit from treating all this chronic stuff incorrectly.

Then you have the guy from Goldman Sachs, who recently said the other day, that there is no profit in cures, don't invest in them.The money is in just treating chronic conditions instead.

So how come Doctors, whose education is/was controlled by the bankers (look it up) don't know anything about Histamine, the front line, and one of the prime drivers of, the immune system?

Well, that's my rant for the day.

Thank you for your input, DanL. Would you be kind enough to elaborate where I can find information on those natural items you are referring to?

I use magnesium chloride sprayed under the tongue, cayenne flakes, because of capsaicin's effect on 'substance "P"', and ginger because it is a COX 2 inhibitor, and I drink apple cider vinegar /water. Basically in pinch sized cooking doses.
(This stops the attacks of Neurotransmitter collapse caused "unreasonable irritation" I regularly experience. )

I have been prescribed medical marijuana, but I prefer to minimize or eliminate that altogether.

I stick to an 8:16 diet ( time restriction NOT caloric restriction), and minimize white sugar and bicycle often.

MY word counts for nothing, (What do I know?) so I recommend you go to "PUBMED" and look all this stuff up.

Best of Luck;
Dan.

Quebec has a vaccine injury compensation program. I was surprised by it... as I, like you, did not know Canada had such programs. It is a provincial program.
Good information presented in this piece.

Laura,
That is correct, Quebec has a vaccine injury compensation program, but the rest of Canada does not. I will add that to my post.

"Programmes that provide no-fault compensation for an adverse event following
vaccination have been implemented in 19 countries worldwide, the first in Germany in
1961 and the most recent in Hungary in 2005." http://www.who.int/bulletin/10-081901.pdf
