A tangential note, but interesting, re: autism.

Not at all uncommon; many docs have commented on this. Read up on stats regarding the recent large increase in autism cases, which seems to follow on the heels of the introduction of mercury-laden combo vaccines into common use (so common that you have to make a special request to get single vaccines these days). Symptoms of autism are very similar to symptoms of mercury poisoning, or so I've read.
If a viral cause of schizophrenia were found it would relieve the guilt of so many parents ... sort of like the discovery of the biological basis for depression ...
