High Court Rejects Autism-Vaccine Case

http://www.disabilityscoop.com/2015/02/27/high-autism-vaccine-case/20097/

The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear a case brought by a woman who says her son’s autism was caused by vaccines he received.

Chandra D. Price sought compensation in 2008 from the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, later claiming that her son Christopher T. Wynn’s autism was caused by vaccines “being given in back-to-back increments, and by mercury toxicity.”...

Price then asked the Supreme Court to consider the matter, but in an order this week, the high court declined without any comment....

Medical experts have widely discredited any link between vaccines and autism. A 1998 study largely responsible for sparking fears about an association between autism and the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine was retracted in 2010.

Garbage by a doctor who was discredited and has now lost his license.
