About the Editor... Barbara Loe Fisher is co-founder and president of the National Vaccine Information Center....The mother of three children, in 1980 her two and a half year old son reacted within four hours of his fourth DPT and polio vaccinations with a convulsion, collapse shock and six hour state of unconsciousness. He was left with minimal brain dysfunction, including multiple learning disabilities and attention deficit disorder.

"minimal brain dysfunction"? What does that mean?... That little Johnnie got a C on his 2nd grade math exam?

Since the vaccination was at age 2.5, seems reasonable that she had no idea at that age how bright little Johnnie was going to be.

Besides, the described mental defects sound very non-specific. She sounds like someone looking for a cash award from an OJ jury.

Ahem,

"including multiple learning disabilities and attention deficit disorder"

Besides, the described mental defects sound very non-specific. She sounds like someone looking for a cash award from an OJ jury.

A) I bet you'd feel that way if it were YOUR child, right?
B) Sounds to me that you an agenda here. Do you work for a drug company?
