Today on the Today Show, they did a piece on a doctor who claims that vaccinations don't cause autism either by how they are preserved or their schedule to be given to kids. The lady doctor on the Today Show had his back and got angry when Matt Lauer called it a "controversial issue."
The problem I have with the issue is that no doctor seems to want to say if autism is genetic. A woman interviewed on the show declared that her son was autistic at birth. So is it genetic or a virus-like illness? With all the DNA testing stuff, you figure in the 21st century they could have cracked this one.
I am worried about this issue since a close friend of ours has an autistic kid. We go over and sort of play with him. But he is completely in his own world. It's hard to communicate with him. It is a fear.
