My youngest reversed progress in walking/talking, developed juvenile arthritis, and started exhibiting autistic behaviors right after his vaccinations.
That being said, I don't really have an opinion on the autism/vaccination issue.

Drawing a conclusion from my son's experience would be a "post hoc ergo propter hoc" error.
Regardless, I don't possess a time machine.

Sometimes sh*t just happens.
Finding someone to blame won't fix anything.

Just have to deal with reality as it is.


I do take issue with the socialism argument used to promote vaccination.
It may be correct, but it's a slippery slope.

Today vaccinations, tomorrow your child is raised according to the needs of the state...

"The lesson of all this is that vaccination is not an individual choice to be made by a parent for his or her own offspring. It's a public health issue, because the diseases contracted by unvaccinated children are a threat to the community. That's what public health is all about, and an overly tolerant approach to non-medical exemptions -- and publicity given to anti-vaccination charlatans like Wakefield and McCarthy by heedless promoters like, sadly, Katie Couric, affect us all."
