I disagree but thanks for your perspective. That study was offered under the context of dismissing an autism connection. It clearly doesn't dismiss anything when it calls for more accurate research.

In the United Kingdom, researchers evaluated the vaccination records of 100,572 children born during 1988–1997, using the General Practice Research Database, 104 of whom were affected with autism [27]. No relationship between thimerosal exposure and autism diagnosis was observed.
And we can tell that by studying just one of several vaccines an infant receives at once? That's what the reference says...

CONCLUSIONS: With the possible exception of tics, there was no evidence that thimerosal exposure via DTP/DT vaccines causes neurodevelopmental disorders.
