CDC to Study Vaccines and Autism

By Kirby, Huffingtonpost.com xrl.in/7i0f

The Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention wants to study autism as a possible clinical outcome of

immunization, as part of its newly adopted 5-year research agenda for

vaccine safety, the agency said on its website.

The CDC will also study mitochondrial

dysfunction and the potential risk for post-vaccine "neurological

deterioration," and convene an expert panel on the feasibility of

studying health outcomes such as autism among vaccinated and

unvaccinated children.

The CDC move comes one month after the

federal government's leading autism body, the Interagency Autism

Coordinating Committee (IACC) announced a shift in research priorities

toward environmental triggers for autism, which the IACC said could

include toxins, biological agents and "adverse events following

immunization."

The Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention's Immunization Safety Office Scientific Agenda indentified

the need to research "Neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism

spectrum disorder (ASD)" as a possible clinical outcome of vaccination.

The plan also seeks to deternine if the

mercury-based preservative thimerosal is associated with increased risk

for "clinically important tics or Tourette syndrome." The CDC cited one

study (, NEJM, 2007), which "found that increasing exposure to

mercury from birth to age 7 months was associated with motor and phonic

tics in boys," and added that "an association between exposure to

thimerosal and tics was found in two earlier studies (s,

Pediatrics, 2004; Verstraeten, Pediatrics, 2003)."

And, noting that the IACC federal autism

panel "suggested several studies including vaccinated versus

unvaccinated children to determine if there are differences in health

outcomes," the CDC said it
