Asking the wrong question leads to the wrong conclusion. The right question is not ... is there a link between vaccines and autism.
the right question is ... Who controls the citizen’s health care? The government or the citizen?
Oldie but goodie? How so? For fake news?
Autism increases because the establishment dumbs down the definition.
For Gods sake, there is now constant talk of autism spectrum, and seriously, theyve got most of us on it. Its BS. Even more is ADD.
Look into the gov-driven education system. They are hand-tied on the 1 hand to do anything about difficult kids, and on the other they love the dollars for disabled kids.
Its true. Ask my mom, the special-ed teacher/leader.
Gee. Do you think in a hedonistic debauched culture pregnant women using drugs of all sorts and alcohol just might be spawning offspring with scrambled brains? Sorry but there is no cure or effective treatment. Today’s medical scientists simply do not understand the biochemical pathways the human brain that make higher intellectual function possible, much less how to treat defects. Its not the vaccines.
ADD is easy - it’s parents who actually believe in Dr. Spock and don’t spank their kids.
Autism, I suspect, is more a WPA for the millions of people who majored in Psych and wanted to actually work in the field.
It's like that time many years ago when I was having a problem with my old '76 Honda Civic. "It sounds like the carburetor," said my wife. Being a man, I ignored her. I checked every ignition component possible, replaced everything I could replace, and the problem remained.
"Maybe it's the carburetor," my wife persisted.
"It can't be the carburetor," I replied, in my best patronizing male tones.
"And why not?" she demanded.
"Because," I said, imperiously, "I can't fix a carburetor!"
There is absolutely no reason to think vaccines cause autism. No valid research has ever indicated that vaccines cause autism. It’s disappointing to see Dr. Healy giving support to an idea with no basis at all.
It seems strange to me that Autism/Augsbergers spectrum cases seem to be vastly greater in the US.
Much more uncommon in Scandinavia and northern Continental Europe.
And seemingly rare in Asia, Russia and Baltics.
Of course they have so many other child health issues that it might get lost in shuffle.
But there does appear to be an issue in the US that needs addressed.
People who question the government line on the safety of these vaccines are attacked most viciously as ‘”Anti-vaxxers”

Great Vaxxer bait. Comments should be rife with hypocrisy about Attkisson.
“According to Healy, when she began researching autism and vaccines she found credible published, peer-reviewed scientific studies that support the idea of an association. That seemed to counter what many of her colleagues had been saying for years. She dug a little deeper and was surprised to find that the government has not embarked upon some of the most basic research that could help answer the question of a link.
The more she dug, she says, the more she came to believe the government and medical establishment were intentionally avoiding the question because they were afraid of the answer.”
The fact is that Polio was on the decline before Salk came along...just one matter which clearly points to other factors for consideration.
Healy’s right: It’s a “sad open question.”
But don’t tell that to “vaxxers.”
Did anyone else read the report on drudge.com about the effect of low frequencies on the mind. Makes me wonder are all these electrical appliances we have in ever increasing numbers possibly the problem!
“Autism”, another word for “I hate being a parent, and I am too lazy to discipline my child so I blame their out of control behavior on vaccinations.”
I’m surprised anyone uses the term peer reviewed anymore after this been exposed for the fraud it is.
For all those people who think vaccines are the cause, why don’t an overwhelming majority of kids vaccinated not end up autistic. Also, why do sets of identical twins both have autism?
Lol. The shrink who came up with ADD later admitted that it was bogus. This doesn’t stop the therapeutic state from putting millions of children on speed.
“Who, but a parent or family member, can and would devote the moment-by-moment attention it takes to raise an autistic child?”

Robots with inexhaustible patience.
Article is 10 years old. Since then, the CDC HAS done intensive studies into vaccines and autism, and used non-vaccinated people for comparison. Results? No link. None. Zero. Zip. Nada.
Game over. Thanks for playing.
Never, ever, EVER try to bring this up to an autistic person or an Aspie.
EVER.
Okay, that may be a little hyperbolic, but autists and aspies tend to think in very logical step by step manners, and the suggestion that people shouldn’t be vaccinated because it causes autism suggests, in their minds, that you’d rather that they die from a preventable disease than live with autism/Aspergers.
I mean, we get really pissy about women aborting Down Syndrome babies. It seems to me that this vaccination mess is very similar, except it only exposes the child to possible death instead of guaranteed death.
