I just cited the Amish study because they have way less autistic children than they should have according to all the studies done on autism. Also, I did say there are a few autistic children there, but those were adopted children who had vaccinations. BTW, I think that autism is caused by toxins in the environment, not by heredity. It is not a coincidence that autism first appeared at the same time that the mercury preservative was put into the vaccinations.

My point, though, is that there should be NO toleration of mercury in any vaccinations for people. Period. I also wonder where the vaccinations are made and who checks them to make sure of what precisely is in them.

Yes...outright death, like the result prior to the use of mercury, was so much better than autism. </sarc>

I asked a specific question of you, and I would appreciate an answer, not another list from an anit-vaccine website.

I asked:

Once again I ask, since thimerosal was in vaccines for decades, why did autism rates only increase in the 80s?

I would also add, as the science of vaccines became more precise, the amount of thimerosal shrank over time. So a child in the '60s, while getting fewer shots, received much more thimerosal than a child in the '80s.

That simple fact completely disproves your premise.
