You will have a hard time getting people to try and divroce one issue from an other. You will get accused of taking the wrong side while you are just saying that an issue is irrelevant to the current debate, etc... don't you ?

I'm absolutely in agreement that vaccines shouldn't include toxic teratogens, of course. Just, this fight should be divorced from the issue of autism. AnneS - thanks for the corrections.

It did fail in the Chiron debacle a few years back. There are other studies that show it's not quite an effective bactericide. "New vaccines don’t contain thimerosal, and only the existing stock of vaccines still does. Once this dries up, no more thimerosal." Nope, not true. The flu vaccine manufacturers are still producing almost all vaccines with thimerosal in them. “But it does make an effective bactericide”

That doctor was right -- parents of autistic kids are desperate to understand what could cause their kids to retreat into themselves. They want an explanation -- ANY explanation, even if it's grasping at straws. I've had conversations with the parents of the autistic girl we know, and they are convinced that mercury-chelation therapy could work, or only giving their kids a particular brand of bottled water will help. It's sad to see them trying to reach their kid through any means possible. The only thing that actually seems to work with that little girl is intensive therapy. But you can't put hard scientific evidence up against parental love and expect science to win out. Also, remember to hold your tongue around parents of autistic kids.
