I heard Holly Robinson-peete on a radio show last week talking about this. She has a son who has autism and she thinks it might have something to do with an MMR vaccine when he was 2 1/2. So I guess she's on a mission to spread the word.

I think the benefits far outweigh the risks and the schools are just trying to protect the kids (as well as themselves). But on the other hand, if there is so much controversy about MMR vaccine, why hasn't it been taken off the school immunization list? The FDA shoud be investigating this. Hopefully Holly and some other celebrities will get them to pay attention.
