CNN report about parents suing over autism
I could use some clarification about this. I have read countless articles about parents who believe that the MMR vaccination caused their kids autism. I have also read nearly as many articles about the scientific community not finding a link. I have 2 boys with ASD. My oldest began to show signs at 2 and my youngest was around 13 months old before he had gotten the MMR shot. My confusion comes in because the manufactures stopped adding the mercury perservative some years ago and yet the cases of ASD continue to rise. I know that doctors and other professionals have become more proficient at diagnosing it but that doesn't completetly explain the sharp increase. We all know the stats, 1 in 166 is now 1 in 150. Now I heard there is some fund to compensate victims of injuries caused by vaccines and some 2000 families have been paid. Just curious as to what your thoughts are.

Re: CNN report about parents suing over autism
You are right & it is an enigma. There are several vacs that still have mercury in them that kids get even at birth. The vaccs also where in the inventory & being used until the lots expired in 12/07. I think that vaccs can trigger autism & I think it is autoimune response to them + enviro toxins + toxins in vaccs + many other variables coming together. Some kids with ASD are likely to just be the genetic role of the dice. For such the increase it has to be a variable. Mother nature works very slow so I do not think it is pure genetics to get such numbers. It is either man caused or gods will. I posted an article from Wakefield discussing the increase in numbers.

Re: CNN report about parents suing over autism
My son had a reaction to his first vaccines at six weeks old. He was a premie so technically he was not even born yet. He has a large number of diagnosis, ASD being one. There is no doubt that my child is vaccine injured because of the immediate response but there are many that don't have an immediate reaction therefore it is hard to prove. Even in my case the pediatrician said it was a mild reaction and did not even document it in his chart. I did not put two and two together until right around the statue of limations for filing a claim against the Vaccine compensation fund. The limitation is Three years from date of injury. I was told by lawyers it would be too difficult to prove therefore no one wanted my case. It is very disturbing to say the least, they are protecting the vaccine manufacturers but not our children.
Also mercury is not the only causitive factor in vaccines, the viruses themselves have the potential to cause/trigger autoimmune reactions that can cause encephalitis and mitochondrial disorder. Aluminum is also used as a preservative and is a know neurotoxin, formaldehyde, the list goes on.
I have an autoimmune disorder Multiple Sclerosis (that I suspect was triggered by the MMR booster) which probably made my son genetically susceptible, I was a dental asst. with high exposure to mercury so I was probably toxic which passed to him and then he was vaccinated well before the recommended age which I believe pushed his system over the edge. There truly are so many variables.
Sadly, our world is toxic and we need to put a stop to it for future generations.
