Has he read the rebuttals of the Observer's story by Simon Baron-Cohen and fellow researcher Fiona Scott or the debunking of the whole story in a dozen blogs, including Guardian reporter, Dr Ben Goldacre and Fiona Fox, director of the Science Media centre and myself? The 1 in 58 figure was blown away wihin hours of publication. Are the rest of Kirby's claims and assertions any more reliable?

When was the last time Kirby had an article in the NYT? I think one of their lawyers told him never to represent himself as a reporter for the NYT. David, Let's say that 75% of autism is purely genetic, either running in the family or caused by a new mutation or mutations. Let's just say that you are an antivaxer like your friend "truthseeker." Can Kirby explain the difference of rate of autism in the California DDS system. There are 4 Regional Centers that have 30 or 33% percent of their case loads as clients with autism, and in the rest of California the percentages are much lower, even a third lower in two Regional Centers. Were the kids in these RCs given three times as many vaccines as the kids in the low autism RCs. There is no evidence of a link between autism and vaccines, not even in Kirby's "Gold Standard" database, the California DDS.
