        @SharylAttkisson It may be impossible to rule out something very rare.

        @SharylAttkisson eg, you may be able to statistically rule out a rate of more than 1 in 100,000. But don't know if it is real but more rare.

        @SharylAttkisson OK I think this is actually a case of not having the same understanding of terms like "rule out".

        @SharylAttkisson For the record, a combination of "normal" measles/mumps and diptheria/tetanus also sent my ex-wife into a 2-year horror.

        @SharylAttkisson Vaccines are USUALLY fine, but there are risks, as I found out personally. My ex has permanent memory loss, etc.

        @SharylAttkisson Latest scientific infer re autism has defined it as a "behavioral" issue and NOT a biological. Per http://NeurologyNow.com
