Trump determined to link life-saving shots to autism, despite science and political risk.
The White House is drafting an executive order on the disproven link between vaccines and autism, according to independent reports from The Washington Post and Bloomberg, which both cited unnamed sources with knowledge of the efforts.
Bloomberg reported that the executive order, which is still taking shape and is subject to change, could be issued as soon as next week. The Post said the order’s drafting so far is aimed at the childhood vaccine schedule, autism research, and parental choice for vaccinations.
Dozens of high-quality studies encompassing data from millions of children worldwide have already been carried out on the topic and have consistently found no link between childhood vaccines and autism. The claim of a link stems from an unethical, fraudulent study that was retracted years ago, and its author was stripped of his medical license.
It’s the other way around. Autism causes vaccines. We get all these people into medical research, and they turn oreos and burgers and no sleep into vaccines.
You don’t have to be autistic to be drawn to a life of repeating the same steps over and over with tiny variations and pouring over the data that comes of it but it sure does help
One may pore over data, pour over is a coffee brewing method.
Look, I do numbers. Not words. I’m glad if autocorrect even knows what I’m trying to type a good part of the time
That said, good to know!
