'According to a report from American lawyer and autism activist, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., son of the assassinated Senator, Dr Poul Thorsen was given millions of dollars by the apparently equally corrupt US Government Center for Disease Control (CDC) to try to disprove the links between infant vaccination and the explosive growth of child autism. Kennedy, who is Chairman of the Waterkeeper Alliance and a law professor at Pace University, has been a prominent critic of the use of mercury-based Thimerosal as a preservative in vaccines given to infants.
Kennedy’s prominent claims and independent statements from leading scientists led to a ban on mercury in US vaccines. However, ever since the CDC and the vaccine industry have tried to claim that Thimerosal is harmless. The key figure in that effort was Thorsen.
Thorsen was the head of a Danish research group that wrote several key studies supporting CDC's claims that the mercury-laden MMR, the standard Measles-Mumps-Rubella vaccines typically given to infants in the first months of life were safe for children. He published a 2003 Danish study that claimed a 20-fold increase in autism in Denmark after that country banned mercury based preservatives in its vaccines. He concluded that mercury could therefore not be the culprit behind the autism epidemic.'
