Are you saying that vaccines cause autism based on anecdotal evidence?
Was the link proved, or rather was it the allergic reaction that caused it via brain swelling?

How does this explain the increase in autism?
Is there an increase in allergic reactions?
If so why? Vaccines have been around a long time, why the increase now.
Maybe chemicals from processed foods?

My point is this, vaccines have proven effective for generations with very few problems.
Linking them to the increasing incidences of autism is not based on science and diverts attention and resources from the actual cause that seems to be in need of identification, pronto.
