Flashback: Scarborough Warns Vaccines May Cause Autism
EXCERPT:
KENNEDY JR.: “What happened was that in 1988, one in every 2,500 American children had autism. Today, one in every 166 children have autism. And plus one in six children have other kinds of learning disorders, other kinds of neurological disorders, speech delay, language disorders, ADD, hyperactivity, that all seem to be connected -- that are all connected -- the science shows are all connected to autism -- to Thimerosal."
SCARBOROUGH: "You know, Bobby, what we've all -- you I could debate thousand different issues, whether it's Terri Schiavo, or the environment, I think would agree on the environment. But in this case, you've got the federal government coming in saying, well, there's no really -- there's no good science. And of course, in politics, science always gets diluted. Why isn't the federal government stepped up and worked more? Because listen, Bobby, I can't prove it tonight. You can't prove it. But intuitively, you look at the spike. You look at what happened with Thimerosal, there is no doubt in my mind, maybe it's two years from now, maybe it's five years from now, maybe it's ten years from now, we're going to find out the Thimerosal causes, in my opinion, autism."
