Families will make case for vaccine link to autism
'The Institute of Medicine said in 2004 there was no credible evidence to show that vaccines containing the preservative thimerosal led to autism in children. But thousands of families have a different take based on personal experience.
Some of them are going to court Monday as attorneys will attempt to show that the mercury-based preservative triggers symptoms of autism.'
Or, put another way, there is no credible evidence that poisoning children does them any harm.
