70. Why does it matter what we call the damage?
Edited on Fri Feb-29-08 08:29 PM by mzmolly
When people have features of a disorder it's generally diagnosed as said disorder. There isn't an "autism test" at this point, so we rely on a diagnosis. Sure, it's possible that vaccine related "features of autism" are not vanilla autism, but that does not negate concern about vaccines contributing to this health issue.

This case has nothing to do with chronic exposure, number of vaccines given, thimersol, aluminum, or any thing else Kirby implies.

What ever the mechanism it has to do with this specific vaccine.

Further, the years of cover up and dismissal of legitimate problems are to blame for any confusion on this matter. Had those agencies charged with protecting the public health actually considered the brains of children part of the equation, we'd not be grasping at straws today.

All these parents know is that their children declined immediately after this vaccination and as such, their children were DIAGNOSED with Autism or "autistic features". I doubt they give a rip what we as a society wish to label their dilemma.
