I am an x-ray tech interested in learning ultrasound. Will there be any availability for training in this modality at VTC for those who are not in medical school?

Comment on Autism-Vaccine Link Called”Fraud”Carilion Pediatrician -”Its not too late to vaccinate” by Tucker

A 2010 Report Reads: “Jenny McCarthy’s Son May Not Have Had Autism After All “After years of speaking publicly about her belief that MMR shots (immunization for measles, mumps, and rubella) caused her son to suffer from autism, Jenny McCarthy now faces the reality that her 7-year-old son Evan — who no longer shows any signs of autism — may likely have lived with completely different illness. A new article in Time magazine — which Jenny was interviewed for — suggests Evan suffers from Landau-Kleffner syndrome, “a rare childhood neurological disorder that can also result in speech impairment and possible long-term neurological damage…..And though her son may never have had autism, Jenny insists, “I’ll continue to be the voice” of the disorder.” woe……………Heck, guess it don’t matter much if you’re honest when you publish a book about your kid having a disorder he never had, just so long as everyone’s making money, right? this is such a slap in the face to the autism community and still, McCarthy will not admit her son was never autistic. She doesn’t care. She doesn’t want to lose her endorsements and connections and celebrity status as a so called mom of autistic kid, the autistic kid who never had autism that is. Her son recovered after he took seizure medications which is landau kleffner typical. How can anyone take the vaccine autism link seriously with this kind of ridiculousness?
