I watched your video, and it was an interesting hypothesis. I have some questions though; herpes encephalitis has a very high mortality rate. How common is herpes in children? There are many triggers for reactivation of the virus including sun exposure. So, I am not seeing the connection between the dramatic increase in autism, which I think is about 1 in 22 and herpes reactivation leading to encephalitis (which is rare)?
Robert, I’m the author of a new study on the causal relationship between vaccinations and autism. It’s a completely novel hypothesis.

I put together a short video presentation with key points from my study, I would really appreciate it if you could take a look and share your opinion.

My pre-print is linked in the post, It’s a thorough review of the available literature pertaining to this connection.
Children aren’t routinely tested for HSV, so any data on infection rate would be purely speculative or based on a relatively small sample size.
And viral encephalitis is a spectrum illness, the severity of symptoms are dependent on many immunological variables.
Take a look at the pre-print and go through the citations, there’s too too much here to be ignored.
Thank you for commenting.
