Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of asking him if there was any decline or rise in the diagnosis of autism during the time period when mercury thermometers were widely used.Some questions for Kirby:

No. As BenBurch said in the other topic there are far more significant ways to expose oneself to mercury that does not involve getting vaccinated like dropping a thermometer and vacuuming it. It is something to think about though I wonder if there is any information related to mercury poisoning during the time period when thermometers were in use.Why? Are you thinking > environmental exposure?
For the life of me that is one of his talking points. Unfortunately, talking points do not provide one with the research papers that he is trying to cite.Since air pollution is the main source in the USA, ask him about the correlation between air quality (especially urban) and autism.
