BARTLETT, Ill. - Danielle Rizzo's son is screaming. He is planted in the middle of the lobby of his elementary school, clinging to rainbow-colored blocks as she gently explains that she is here - off schedule, in the middle of the day - to take him to a doctor's appointment.

A few random observations: So does one conclude that if nobody stands to make a boodle of money on a lawsuit, it must be presumed that no issue exists? Pretty sad state of our culture and society.

In addition, only one short phrase "A proposed link to vaccines was based on fraudulent research and has been disproved" even mentions the link with toxins associated with vaccines given at an early age. As we know, the research turned out not to have been fraudulent, but the researcher has been found guilty in the court of public opinion. Why would any thinking person not see this case as having to do with epigenetics? A particular gene might promote sensitivity to these toxins in a way not found in the majority of little humans. We can't investigate this if our minds already are shut tight.
