She adds for older children it is 69 doses of 16 vaccines by the time they reach 18. Barb Fisher expressed concern for the increase in chronically ill and disabled children.  She cites: 1 in 6 learning disabled, 1 in 9 asthma, 1 in 10 w/ ADHD,  1 in 110 w/ autism, 1 in 450 diabetes. She reports, “we have a lot of children who…
