Are Vaccines to Blame for Skyrocketing Childhood Illnesses?

Visit American Chronicle to check out this excellent article on the relationship of vaccines and methyl mercury to the rise in childhood illnesses such as autism. Unfortunately the ones most at risk from mercury exposure are fetuses and newborns. No amount of mercury exposure is considered safe. The article is very well researched and cites all related reference materials.
The article specifically addresses the relationship of the use of thimerosol in vaccines to the dramatic rise in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and Environmental Illness (EI).
“Effects of mercury on children show susceptibility for prenatal exposure to methylmercury as it passes though the placental barrier to the developing fetus from the mother (Bjornberg et al, 2005). Clarkson (2002) notes mothers with mild symptoms of mercury neurotoxicity often give birth to offspring with severe brain damage, delayed development, and other neurologic abnormalities. There is valid concern over the safety of the amount of additional mercury received in childhood vaccinations.”
