MMR

Here is a graph of when the MMR was introduced and the rise in autism. Also right around the 1990's is when they began the new schedule and increased the immunizations. There has been a 6,000% increase in autism since the 1990's.

This info is great to help me convince a few people I know of this correlation!

I am graph-illiterate...I'm still trying to fully understand it...but it sounds like if it were updated to the current year it would basically be a straight line UP. 6,000% in the last (almost) 20 years is staggering.

That is UN-real! But ofcourse there is no link. STUPID! I must agree we have the BEST moms ever. And I am so happy to see Todd's last meet ever, but sad for him. Tell him when you guys get here, I'll race him, if that makes him feel better!
