Have you seen the results of research connecting autism with mercury in vaccines?Basically nonsense and the overwhelming body of research is on the other side of the issue.

But, there's a strong lobby that wants someONE to blame for something so horrible (and incidentally, somebody to sue.)

Developing countries don't have their children subjected to extensive psychological testing if they act weird or different. At best they may be diagnosed "retarded" like most autistic kids here have been. And plenty of vaccines are doled out and have been doled out in developing countries for years.

Dittos. The evidence blaming vaccination is all anecdotal but widely circulated in the parent community. Actual scientific studies find zero correlation.
