Mercury vaccines were banned in California, autism-rate didn't change. (Score: 1)

(User Info | Send a Message) | | Debunked, period.
If the "cause" is removed, and the "effect" keeps cropping up,
with the same regularity as before,
then the "cause" isn't causing:
it's a Red Herring, is bogus, is a functional lie.
Since lives are bet on this bunk, it's profoundly harmful.
( do we get unconsciously blamed when we have autism and didn't get vaccinated?
Do we get blamed when "group immunity" that pervasive vaccination provides,
is compromised by us?
yes, both ways )
I don't remember the name of the woman who logged her children's development
( the second of which was obviously autistic before 2 years old ),
but her log, published in book form,
shows how the Sudden Onset Autism is phony:
What is happening, is that parents deny the truth,
until something bursts their bubble,
then "OMG, it *suddenly* happened!"
Whereas, what suddenly happened, is they stopped denying!
Autism involves such fundamental changes in brain-structure & function
( damaged mirror-neuron circuit, ferinstance,
having eye-contact hit our "assault/threat" circuit,
having identification-of-others-by-face be to some extent missing,
etc. -
- go on NewScientist.com, PhysOrg.com, Eurekalert.com, PLoS ONE, etc,
& search "autism", and read and read and read,
and learn how much they truly do know! ),
that "sudden onset" is as much a shameless sham as is autism-is-caused-by-vaccination.
Also, the "oh, it's increasing drastically!" "argument"
is based on the denial that different standards for measuring
( which produce different diagnosis-rates )
don't have any influence on diagnosis-rate!
"Autistic" was considered normal, in the '50s, in engineering-school,
and in damn near anything related.
NOW it's considered "autistic spectrum DISorder".
TRY using the same standards nowadays,
and you end up with -gasp- the same diagnosis-rate! |

(User Info | Send a Message) | | I think the only reason more children are being diagnosed with autism is because more doctors KNOW about it.
The same thing has happened to AD/HD and over-medicating kids who don't sit down and pay attention when they're 6 or 7, even though the definition of being 6 or 7 is being overactive. |

(User Info | Send a Message) | | ok the increasing numbers are not because autism is actually on the rise, they're the same as always. There are more diagnoses because people are more AWARE. |
