Parents Are Still Waiting For Mercury-Free Vaccines >From Wendy Fournier, president, National Autism Association tinyurl.com/o9pv3 (For full article) Seven years ago, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) realized they had been injecting children with vaccines containing levels of mercury far exceeding Environmental Protection Agency guidelines. They chose not to stop the practice immediately and recall vaccines containing the neurotoxic, mercury-based preservative thimerosal, calling instead for a phase-out ("Autism parents allege CDC cover-up," April 6). Seven years seems an eternity to parents who watched their perfectly healthy children plunge into the depths of autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and other neurodevelopmental disorders after receiving mercury-containing vaccines. It is painful to stand helplessly by as more children suffer the same easily preventable fate. Public Service Announcement to the Reader: AUTISM IS TREATABLE. Consult these sources: .
