Thanks, Julie. I won't explain on X, which promotes antivax liars, but my book #NeuroTribes explains this history in depth. 65.7K views · 187 likes · 28 reposts · 19 replies Open on X →

As an autism mom from the 90s, I questioned vaccines when they contained mercury.

Terry Gross of @nprfreshair is the best interviewer in the business. The transcript of my 2015 interview with Terry about my history of #autism and #neurodiversity, #NeuroTribes, is archived here. It was an honor to talk to her. https://t.co/hMK4nhvaRY 0 views · 907 likes · 202 reposts · 66 replies Open on X →
