Has anyone read the news that in Britain the doctors responsible for the research claiming there is a link between vaccination and autism are actually in court. Investigators into the research discovered that it was very poor research with many inaccuracies plus the conclusions drawn from the project were not accurate. The doctors involved are being tried for medical malpractice. nursingaround.blogspot.com

Glad to hear that. I have a freind (nurse for 30+ years) whos son has autism, the experts used to say it was due to the mother not loving their child enough or giving them enough attention. My freind was blamed by her docotrs for not putting him in an institision as a baby, she kept him home. Now he is an adult, has his own apart and works as a bagger, everyone at the store enjoys him and he brightens many days. I cannot imagen the guilt, pain and shame that caused so many moms. Now can you imagen people not vaccinating thier kids for fear of autism and them getting other diseases such as polio.
