AAP, Institute of Medicine: Vaccine Safety
Report
"A vaccine safety report issued by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) contains
findings and recommendations consistent with those of the AAP. No evidence
currently exists that proves a link between thimerosal-containing vaccines and
autism, ADHD and speech and language delay."

Do
Immunizations Reduce the Risk for SIDS? A Meta-analysis
(M.M.T. Vennemanna, , , M. Höffgenb, T. Bajanowskic, H.-W. Hensed and E.A.
Mitchelle. Received 15 November 2006; revised 29 January 2007;
accepted 27 February 2007.)
Abstract
Background -- There are claims that immunizations cause sudden infant
death syndrome (SIDS), but some studies have found either no association or that
they are associated with a reduced risk of SIDS.
Results -- The summary odds ratio (OR) in the univariate analysis
suggested that immunizations were protective, but the presence of heterogeneity
makes it difficult to combine these studies. The summary OR for the studies
reporting multivariate ORs was 0.54 (95% CI = 0.39-0.76) with no evidence of
heterogeneity.
Conclusions -- Immunizations are associated with a halving
of the risk of SIDS. There are
biological reasons why this association may be causal, but other factors, such
as the healthy vaccinee effect, may be important. Immunizations should be part
of the SIDS prevention campaigns.

Evidence-Based Medicine: MMR Vaccine Not Linked to Autism
-
JAMA: Association
Between Thimerosal-Containing Vaccines and Autism
"In a six-year Danish population-based cohort study, children given a
thimerosal-based vaccine were
compared with those receiving a thimerosal-free version of the same vaccine.
The risk of autism and autism-spectrum disorders did not differ
significantly between the two groups."

AAP: Study fails to show a connection between thimerosal and autism
"AAP provides the following information for clinicians who may be aware of recent press surrounding an article that claims to show a
correlation between thimerosal and autism. This paper uses data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System
(VAERS) inappropriately and contains numerous conceptual and scientific flaws, omissions of fact, inaccuracies, and misstatements."

Varicella
Decline in Annual Incidence of Varicella -
Selected States, 1990--2001
"The findings in this report suggest that the steady decline
in reported varicella incidence during 1999-2001 resulted from the increased
use of varicella vaccine and not a decrease in reporting. These findings
are consistent with data from three active surveillance sites at which
individual cases are investigated (Antelope Valley, California; West
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Travis County, Texas). During 1995-2000,
incidence of varicella for all age groups in these three sites declined
substantially (range: 76%-87%), corresponding with the high average
vaccination coverage of 80%."
