This is just great. Here come the lawyers. Vaccine companies will be scared as hell to develop anything new.

Congressman Weldon is from my town...

..a fine, upstanding man with integrity.....and yes, he is a respected doctor here.

He would not give his name or speak on record about this if he didn't believe it.

Another well known doctor in town has been trying to prove this vaccination/autism link for years...

..as his own healthy son developed autism shortly after his series of shots.

So if there is a link and it can be proven in the INDIVIDUAL child, then the hell with us dealing with a child with autism. We should just shut the hell up and get over it because you are sick and tired of lawsuits? I'm sick of lawsuits too, but if there is some culpability at any level, I think I deserve to know and so does my child who may never lead a normal life. If a preservative in a vaccination, one I didn't know was there or was presented in the info I was given before signing for the vaccine, has kept my son from leading a normal life, you are damn straight I expect those culpable to help improve his chances at a normal life that they helped destroy. ABA programs cost 40-75K a year and are not covered by your average IEP state funded deal. who pays for that? Who is culpable here?
I did not volunteer my child to be a guinea pig. If I had done so, I would accept responsibility for his autism if it resulted from a vaccine that was experimental. Not only were we told it was safe, we were told it was required if he had to go to school, daycare, preschool, camp, etc.

It's not the vaccine that was the problem. It's the mercury based preservative that is the issue. It was used to allow multiple injections to be given from a single bottle of vaccine. Easy enough to go back to single dosage containers IMHO.

Oh please ... if the Blood Trail's taught me one thing, it's that blood brokers and pharmas are bullet-proof.
