Evidence of harm / Kirby, David

Examines the evidence for the root causes of growing autism and other disorders in America's children. Provides information on the controversial use of toxic mercury in vaccinations and the increase of that chemical in recent years. Cites the medical community for denying this evidence.

Examines the rise in autism cases in American children since the 1980s, a trend that corresponds to new childhood vaccinations which contain thimerosal, a preservative made of the toxin mercury, and follows the struggles of several families to learn why their once-healthy children became autistic.
