America, how does it feel to wake up and learn that you can't have healthcare tests that you think you or your loved one needs?
The IACC, Washington's leading arbiter for directing federal funds to autism research, unanimously voted to recommend studies that include investigations into possible links between autism vaccines.
The anti-vaccination movement has picked up steam in the past few years, and authorities now believe that pockets of unvaccinated children are forming. This is beginning to have deadly results.
By some views, it's just as possible that sunscreen -- and sun avoidance -- is causing far more harm than mercury ever did.
For over a decade, I've relentlessly searched for answers to the connections I believe exist between my son's autism and vaccines he received.
In my office, when parents tell me they just want to wait before they give their children vaccines, I explain that this is a choice not to vaccinate.
We've got 80,000 chemicals in our everyday products here in the US, but the EPA has required testing on only 200 of them. Is it any wonder that the health of American children is under siege?
Dr. Landis resigned from the IACC on Saturday after the Age of Autism blog published handwritten notes - assumed to be written by Dr. Landis - speculating on the motives of an autism mother and IACC member.

For the Obama Administration and the mainstream media to accept that autism levels have always been this high is, frankly, wishful thinking and unsettlingly wrongheaded.
Today, health care spending represents 17% of our GDP, but perhaps it is time that we view our children as more than just a sales channel for Big Pharma's money making medicine.
Washington loves to dump its bad news on a Friday afternoon, and today it confirmed that one percent of American children (and by extension, perhaps 1-in-58 boys) has an autism spectrum disorder.
During the first 17 months of his life, my son hit development milestones perfectly on time. Then autism hit.
It's every parent's nightmare: that something will happen to their child that's out of their control, affecting the rest of the child's life - and the...
