Too little too late for DPT injuries
Concerns
over the safety of
DPT vaccines
have finally led the FDA to recommend
that DPT vaccine makers stop using
Thimerosal, a mercury preservative.
Congressional hearings over the possible connection between DPT
vaccines and autism proved inconclusive, but
the hearings did succeed in raising public awareness of the problem.
Litigation over mercury poisoning from DPT vaccines
began March 2001 with a lawsuit filed in Dallas, Texas. Similar lawsuits
have also been filed including a class action lawsuit in Ontario, Canada,
on behalf of children who developed autism after receiving vaccines
preserved with
Thimerosal.
Thimerosal is gradually being
phased out of most vaccines. However, it is too late for those children
who have already been affected. Research is also being done on the
connection between MMR and autism, hepatitis and MS, and other adverse
DPT vaccine reactions.
