Early last month, Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carey headed to Washington to participate in a rally supporting a campaign called Green Our Vaccines. The celebrity couple is concerned about the potential link between the rise in autism and the toxins found in children’s vaccines. Now it appears that Jessica Alba might be reading up on the subject as well.

In a recent interview with Britain’s Sunday Express, Alba opened up about her new daughter, Honor Marie Warren, and the potential health issues she might encounter. “I’ve been reading a lot about kids and infections, autism and vaccinations,” she says, who suffered from health problems as a child. “I’ve come to think that perhaps I was a product of my environment or the vaccines or something my mother took when she was pregnant.”

Today, on average, kids receive 24 vaccine injections to protect against 16 diseases. Advocates for change believe that children receive “too many vaccines, too soon, many of which are toxic.”
