A new analysis of the federal National Health Interview Survey finds children who received a COVID-19 shot had higher odds of autism, ADHD, anxiety, asthma and special-education use than children who did not.
The authors, including epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher and cardiologist Peter McCullough, say the pattern survived a long list of statistical controls and rose with dose count.
Their conclusion is blunt: COVID-19 vaccination of children should cease immediately.
The paper, posted October 5 on the Zenodo repository, pools the 2022–2024 Sample Child files. It covers 21,990 children aged 0–17 with a recorded COVID vaccination status, and 19,882 aged 2–17 for the autism, ADHD and learning-disability items.
“Unvaccinated” in this comparison means no COVID-19 vaccine. It does not mean the child skipped the routine schedule.
Set against children who never received a COVID shot, COVID-vaccinated children had:
- 32 percent higher odds of current autism
- 26 percent higher odds of a lifetime autism diagnosis
- 33 percent higher odds of ADHD
- 23 percent higher odds of any neurodevelopmental diagnosis
- 19 percent higher odds of special-education use
- 24 percent higher odds of asthma
- 27 percent higher odds of daily or weekly anxiety
- 57 percent higher odds of mental-health medication
- 60 percent higher odds of mental-health therapy
The steepest autism estimate landed where parents were told the product was a routine precaution. Among children aged 5 to 7, three or more COVID shots were linked to 154 percent higher odds of current autism. Ages 2 to 7 with three or more doses sat at 137 percent higher odds.
The odds also climbed with the number of shots. Against children who received none, current-autism odds were 3 percent higher after one dose, 25 percent higher after two, and 40 percent higher after three or more.
Hulscher told The Gateway Pundit the association “persisted across numerous adjustment strategies, strengthened with increasing dose count, and reached its largest estimate in some of the youngest multiply vaccinated children.”
He added: “This is a safety signal that must not be ignored. Endangering the developing brain is a red line. COVID-19 ‘vaccination’ of children should cease immediately.”
