So parents got together to see if this was what caused the Autism was the Mercury poisioning. The symptons are the same. I don't know if this was coincidence(sorrry I'm a horrible speller sometimes) or not but, they quit putting Thimersol in the vaccinations.
There is always going to be people saying that vaccinations harms more than it hurts and vice versa. Can't make everyone happy.

This vet comes to the conclusion, as most do , that
the benefits of some of the puppy vaccines outweigh the risks , but not the annual vaccines and not some of the other vaccines that are not necessary based on a dog's lifestyle as an indoor dog, etc.
It's very interesting reading.
