For all of you that don't think Autism is related to Vaccines

My position is simply this. My experience with dealing with parents of autistic kids has been consistant. The majority of them say their kids were perfectly fine until after receiving a vaccine at which time everything immediately changed.

My understanding is that a reliable diagnosis for autism isn't likely until age 2 and that the average age of diagnosis is age 5. This is where people start trying to draw a causality from a correlation, an autistic child would be vaccinated while being "normal" before the signs and necessary development take place for a reliable diagnosis of ASD and then later develops into an autistic child. People look at that and draw the conclusion "they happened at the same time, one HAS to do with the other." When researchers investigated it they found that there is no causation. Thimerosal was removed from vaccines as a precautionary measure and follow up research in fact has shown that it had no significant reduction in the incidence of ASD diagnosis. The reality is the only causation there is age, the child is vaccinated at an age that happens to be around the same period when ASD diagnosis is most likely.
