Are you an immunologist?
I'll agree. I also think they need to do more research into the cause of autism and into the safety of vaccines.
I think there is a genetic link to autism because it does tend to run in families (between those that have been vaccinated and those that have not).
There is no harm done trying to make vaccines safer.
Absolutely!
My adopted brother is autistic. When he got his MMR and DPT, he promptly threw several petite mal seizures EVERY DAY for over a week afterwards, with accompanying high fever, etc.
Now, goodness knows I have no idea what caused his autism. However, after those vaccines at 12 months, he started the typical autistic downslide-ie, communication/eye contact decreased, became hyposensitive to certain kinds of touch and hypersensitive to others, etc.
Surely spreading out these vaccinations couldn't hurt, and they might help those kids who react so poorly to the vaccines.
