What is Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)? Sudden Infant Death Syndrome was defined in 1965 under code 795 of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-8) for infant deaths as the sudden unexpected death of an infants with no apparent cause.

My older brother, Douglas Allen Tiger 7.26.65-9.25.65; whom I never got to know, was one of the first victims to be diagnosed with the new official SIDS. His death destroyed my mom's heart and eventually destroyed my family. My mom took that pain and hurt to her death bed; I heard her last words. So, I have known about this forever including making the connection to the beginning of the Autism crisis in the early 2000's while getting ridiculed every step of the way. Still fighting big brother 30+yrs, RIP!! And Fk them all who know and do nothing!!

After the above incident they began breaking up the Lot numbers and distributing around the country instead.

I also have two friends with 30yo, non-verbal Autistic daughters. Both of my friends will tell you the girls were meeting milestones as their older sisters had. One reversed at 17months (mom is a physician) and the other at 18months (my neighbor/friend). BOTH will tell you dtap stole their daughters 💔
