Dear sandra,
Join CHD on Friday, June 6, 2025 as we uncover the truth behind the orchestrated autism cover-up after 25 years of scandal and its lasting impact on the autism crisis.
Twenty-five years ago, in June of 2000, 52 public health officials, scientists, and vaccine manufacturer representatives gathered secretly at the Simpsonwood Retreat in Norcross Georgia, under strict CDC orders to keep all vaccine safety data “embargoed.”
This clandestine meeting, unannounced to the public, included top CDC and FDA officials, the World Health Organization’s vaccine specialist, and executives from GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, Wyeth, and Aventis Pasteur, who discussed alarming findings about thimerosal – a mercury-based preservative in vaccines.
CDC epidemiologist Thomas Verstraeten revealed his analysis of 100,000 children’s medical records, showing a dramatic link between thimerosal and autism, speech delays, and other neurological disorders, leaving attendees stunned.
The leaked Simpsonwood transcripts exposed a cozy government-industry relationship determined to hide this data, as attendees were barred from taking documents or photocopies.
Now, 25 years later, CHD is still exposing the secret meetings at Simpsonwood so that all will know the truth.

Since 1991, when thimerosal-laced vaccines were recommended for infants, autism rates have skyrocketed from 1 in 2,500 to 1 in 166 by 2000, and now to 1 in 31 today.
Public health agencies sidestep these causes, focusing instead on inclusivity and diagnostics. Tune in to uncover the truth behind this coverup and its lasting impact on the autism crisis.
