At issue is the thimerosal (derived from Hg) used as a preservative in multi-dose vials and the fact that some individuals have an defective allele, APOE4 instead of APOE2. With a sulphydryl end group on the E4, there is an affinity for mercury uptake. There’s a whole lot of information about it on my website. http://www.cent4dent.com/html/mercury_issues/vaccines.html Nothing is definitive, but we are, as a nation, the most vaccinated in the world. Add to that the multiple vaccinations that pedes sometimes put youngsters through and you’ve got a potential problem. I’ve heard that by FDA standards of mercury exposure, by the time a child is 5 he would have to weigh 180 lbs to have that much Hg in his tissues.
There was never a pictogram for autism in Chinese until vaccination was introduced to their culture. Supposedly there’s a much lower rate of autism in Mennonites because they shun modern medicine. Try following some of the links on that page to other websites as well.

Subject: [ACEsthetics] vaccines and autism
What has changed in vaccines since I was a kid that makes them cause more autism now. Is it really that they now have mercury so that they can be preserved to allow use overseas and they weren’t preserved that way before? My kids tutor said she has been researching the subject and wouldn’t do vaccines till the kid is older.
