		<description>Interesting how you censor your comments.

A shame, really, that rational moms is such an insular group, clearly afraid of opposing points of view.

Enjoy yourselves.</description>

		<description>Interesting.

&quot;It&#039;s a great day for science and I&#039;d like to think it&#039;s also a great day for children with autism,&quot; said Dr. Paul Offit, chief of infectious diseases at Children&#039;s Hospital of Philadelphia and co-inventor of the rotavirus vaccine (a standard childhood immunization that does not contain thimerosal).  

The latest estimate is that Dr. Offit&#039;s share of the Rotateq revenues is $29,000,000 to $55,000,000. 

A rational mom may think that he has a slight conflict of interest here.

The pharmaceutical industry controls which research gets into journals and which does not.  This creates public perception of vaccine risks and benefits which may be at odds with what is actually observed in the medical community.

The &quot;Vaccine Court&quot; has already awarded over two billion dollars in compensation to families who successfully showed that they or their children had suffered harm from routine vaccination.  

But now it&#039;s all sewn up and solved!  Hooray for the &quot;special masters&quot; that decided &quot;Cedillo,&quot; Hazlehurst,&quot; and &quot;Snyder&quot; .
