ResultsThe prevalence of parent-reported ASD among children aged 617
was 2.00% in 20112012, a significant increase from 2007 (1.16%). The
magnitude of the increase was greatest for boys and for adolescents aged 1417.
Cohort analyses revealed consistent estimates of both the prevalence of parentreported ASD and autism severity ratings over time. Children who were first
diagnosed in or after 2008 accounted for much of the observed prevalence
increase among school-aged children (those aged 617). School-aged children
diagnosed in or after 2008 were more likely to have milder ASD and less likely
to have severe ASD than those diagnosed in or before 2007.

The finding in the above paragraph: school aged children in or after 2008 ..milder..so the lessening of the levels of thimerosal by 2003 DID lessen the severity of the disease..why no mention..of this taboo evidence? This shows exactly what autism parents have suggested all along. The FDA said our children were receiving more than allowable amounts of mercury from these shots, and they were. Now we need to clean up the corn syrup issue, the coal burning plants , the pesticides, and stop being in denial.
