1. "Links between Child Vaccines and Autism?"

2. The text begins talking about a baby called Russell Rollin who was diagnosed as having autism after getting a vaccination. His father believes the vaccine to be the cause of his autism and tells how painful it has been for him and specially for his son. The text also says that the percentage of autistic children is increasing in California and that many parents are worried about the causes of the disorder, but the epidemiologist and pediatrician Robert Byrd, claims that the vaccine is not the cause of it. He says that autism's increase is a national trend. Researchers are still looking for the causes and baby Russel's father worries about his child's future.

3. I got 100% of the answers right.

4. I think this site is worth visiting because the texts are up to date on today's issues and therefore, gets students interested.
