On Autism's Cause, It's Parents vs. Research - New York Times
Topic: Miscellaneous 12:10 am EDT, Jun 28, 2005

Public health officials like Ms. Ehresmann, who herself has a son with autism, have been trying for years to convince parents like Ms. Rupp that there is no link between thimerosal - a mercury-containing preservative once used routinely in vaccines - and autism.

They have failed.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, the Institute of Medicine, the World Health Organization and the American Academy of Pediatrics have all largely dismissed the notion that thimerosal causes or contributes to autism. Five major studies have found no link.

I know more than one lady that swears her child was vas doing well and bright before vaccines, at which time the child seemed to regress.

I don't know - I vaccinated my child, but I myself am highly allergic to thimerisol, having experienced a near anaphalactic reaction after a vaccine that I took in my twenties.

I don't trust it.
