Where is the Australian/NZ prevalence / incidence data?
editOne section (Hong Kong I think) refers to having similar rates as Australia but there is nowhere that actually talks about the Australian data 159.196.43.163 (talk) 21:26, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Canada- updated Montreal Study information?
editI updated the data on Canada under Frequency Estimates, but as for the part about the 2004 Montreal Children's Hospital study, is there any updated information equivalent to this from there or should this be omitted as it does not flow with the statistics right before it referencing 2019?

Environmental Chemical Exposure is misleading
editThe chemical structure of thimerosal is used to represent the mercury containing compounds discussed in the cited literature. I read both and it is most likely incorrect, the papers clearly state examples of sources like heavy metals (probably elemental or ethyl/methyl mercury), air pollution or dental amalgam which would not contain this compound. However, disproven theories about vaccines causing autism generally center around arguments like this, where thimerosal is used as a preservative. Not sure if its better to remove this section since in its current state its largely uninformative or wait for someone to rewrite since it is an active and interesting area of research? (Im personally not knowledgeable about his field I'm a chemist, which is why the structure stood out as suspicious) 94.134.213.95 (talk) 23:48, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
