/24-7PressRelease/ - SAN FRANCISCO, CA, July 05, 2007 - The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention declared autism as the fastest-growing developmental disability, occurring as frequent as one in 150 births. Although the National Institute of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reassures parents that there is no connection between autism and immunizations, the recent rise in autism diagnoses has some individual researchers and parents questioning this information.
On July 12, 2007, 9am PST / 12pm EST, Preschool Rock Moms Internet radio show hosts will discuss this highly controversial topic with Lisa Jo Rudy, autism expert and About.com Autism writer. Rudy will talk about autism, including signs and symptoms, screening and diagnosis, and most importantly, the theories associated with the immunization connection.
During the Preschool Rock Moms Internet radio, "Autism and Immunizations", listeners are encouraged to call the show at 646-478-4875 to participate in the discussion and ask questions. Show hosts are also accepting questions prior to the airing of the show. Questions can be submitted to info@preschoolrockmoms.com and will be read during the show.
