On 8/17/01, report filed 3 1/2 years after child was given multiple vaccines of the routine childhood schedule at age of 4. Pt had fever and possible URI symptoms following that evening. After an unknown period, the pt developed neurologic symptoms and lost developmental milestones. No medical evaluation of the child since that time was provided with report, therefore I do not have a dx of the current status. The family reports autism. While vaccines have been suggested as a cause, studies have revealed the majority of cases of autism are not likely due to vaccines. The cause of the autism is currently unknown. 60 day follow up on 11/04/2003: "Vaccine recipient recovered from the adverse events."
