Thanks for the info. There are still lots of holes and that blog is a far cry from the kind of thorough and official resources I’d like to find … but it’s a step in the right direction on measles, at least.

As for autism, even if “some of the rise in reported prevalence is certainly related to expansion of the boundaries set for behaviors consistent with an autism phenotype,” we still have to explain the rest of the rise.

I think you’ve misinterpreted what they’re saying. They’re not saying “some is related, but some isn’t”, they’re saying “at least some definitely is, and possibly all of it is.”

We don’t have clear enough data to definitively say that all of the rise in autism is artificial, but I haven’t seen much indication that serious researchers think otherwise.
