From that article: "Then-director of the Centers for Disease Control
Julie Gerberding (who is now President of Merck Vaccines) stated: "The
government has made absolutely no statement indicating that vaccines are
a cause of autism. This does not represent anything other than a very
specific situation and a very sad situation as far as the family of the
affected child."

This is not an autism award. IIRC, the child has a very rare
mitochondrial problem that triggered her condition.
