Funnily enough, the same kooky people -- who promote Wakefield and are convinced that Big Pharma and the CDC are conspiring to cover participation in creating an autism "epidemic" -- also promote Big Quacka and Big Herba, and demand no safety or efficacy data of either, as long as the treatment is advertised as a "cure."
And unfortunately, a lot of children with autism have endured risky, invasive, and painful treatments because of these people. For no good reason.
