Imagine if children were developing life threatening cancer at the rate of 1 in 54 boys -- and in six years with almost a billion dollars the committee had failed to stem the tide, refused to look at causation or prevention, and instead spent a good portion of its time diligently dickering over the curtain colors at hospice? What can Tom Insel say to the families of the fallen children - many of them born after Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC) was installed? IACC is failing the autism community.
