"On that note, if I might speculate a little bit," she [Judy Mikovits] said, "This might even explain why vaccines would lead to autism in some children,..."
I dunno: seems to be a pretty clear admission that she thinks vaccines are "implicated" in autism, don't ya think?
One of the most replicated physical features of autism is a larger brain with more neurons and a larger number of minicolumns.
The number of minicolumns is fixed during the first trimester in utero. Nothing months or years later can change that number.
I think she was trolling for funding. Telling the delusional anti-vax people what they want to hear so they will give her money.
Unfortunately that is the way that getting funding works. The honest and good scientist who knows his/her limits and doesn't lie has difficulty competing with the frauds who say "I will cure cancer/CFS/autism/stupidity/ugliness with this funding".

Comments are moderated, because I am tired of Gerwyn-V99-The-Idiot and his moronic sockpuppets, and tired of the story of the two dogs, but I will try to publish everything else.
If you are not Gerwyn (and want to tell me something other than the story of the two dogs), then relax and write something! :-)
