MMR Vaccine and Autism:

The following news release appeared in the popular media in 1998, and was a major television news item:

Cleveland, Ohio, Posted 4:00 p.m. November 20, 1998:

"Studies Suggest the Measles-Mumps-Rubella
Vaccine Is a Possible Cause of Autism"

NewsChannel5 reports hundreds of thousands of children receive the MMR vaccine every year, but now studies show a tiny percentage of cases may cause autism. Since the MMR vaccine was introduced about 35 years ago,the incidents of autism in children have increased by 1,000 percent, from two or three in 10,000 to one in 500.

I KNOW THERE IS NO PROOF, BUT IT MAKES YOU WONDER NOT TO RULE ANYTHING OUT DOESN'T IT?
