Follow-up on Post 00809E
17 July 2005

Michel Zaffran (mailto:
[email protected]) from WHO gives more sources of
information concerning autism. Now I realized that something may be wrong.
The previous posting was copied from source and it refers to thimerosal.
WHO sites talk of thiomersal. Who is right? Maybe someone will tell us.

on Vaccine Safety (GACVS) with regards to Thiomersal and rumours of adverse
effects- the topic has been extensively studied and all reports of finding
have been thoroughly investigated.
The site of the GACVS is
