There exists a growing body of evidence that certain children are vulnerable to the mercury-based preservative thimerosal, used in vaccinations. Many parents have witnessed the heartbreak of seeing their once happy, connected, completely normal child slipping away into their own little world after their 12 to 18 month booster shots. Here is what Rep. Dan Burton had to say at the 2002 congressional hearing on vaccines:

"My only grandson became autistic right before my eyes - shortly after receiving his federally-recommended and state-mandated vaccines. Without a full explanation of what was in the shots being given, my talkative, playful, outgoing, healthy grandson Christian was subjected to very high levels of mercury poisoning through his vaccines. He also received the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine. Within a few days he was showing signs of autism."

- Rep. Dan Burton, 2002

Dr. Bernard Rimland, PhD. and Director of the Autism Research Institute, lists a whole page of studies linking thimerosal to autism, and he states :

"Following are some of the scientific studies that demonstrate thimerosal, a mercury-containing substance that is used as a preservative, to be harmful and a highly probable causal factor in autism. Note that these studies are consistently ignored in the medical establishment's publications claiming there is no evidence for vaccine-caused autism".

And Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in his article "Deadly Immunity", describes what he calls the cover-up by the government of studies implicating vaccination toxins to autism.
