I plan on making sure my vet only uses the single dose vial when any of mine need their rabies. Thymersol is the same preservative suspected to have caused autism in children and aluminum is also known to be dangerous. I give my own vaccines except for the rabies so this is the one I worry about.

Hi,
I had to comment on the autism.... AS of right now there is NO proven link at all whatsoever that this is true. NO scientific evidence at all. This all came from the connection of toddlers who had a Dx of Early Infantile Autism. The babies would go in and recieve their rountine shots and supposedly therafter would regress. Language stopping completly. THe parents are the ones who started to think that there was a connection to a certain type of autism/vaccines. Scientists are and continue to study the autism link. MY son has autism, and it was in the 90's when this so called connection started. No offense woogieman, I have also been watching that very carefully too.
