text: does anyone know if children with autism will ever get the funding they need for what the drug co.did?   unfortunately, there is still no documented proof that the thimerosol in the vaccines injured our children.  a recent study came out that suggested the rate of new autism diagnoses has decreased since they took thimerosol out of the vaccines, but the results are still under debate.  i doubt that there will ever be a settlement for the families dealing with autism.  even if they did do something wrong, the drug companies are too big and have too much money and political pull to get punished for it.
