[tri-med] Re: The Age of Autism: The Amish anomaly

Hmmm, very interesting.
 
I was discussing this article with my daughter who is in her peds rotation of 
nursing school.  They are taught how to coax parents into getting the vaccines 
and are told that the negative info is outdated etc.  . . . same thing my 
pediatrician said.  I could not convince her otherwise.  I still say mom/dad 
knowa best . . .
