20 years ago Geier claimed it was thimerosal in vaccines that caused autism. That didnβt pan out when thimerosal was removed from all childhood vaccines in 2001 and autism prevalence didnβt go down so he jumped on the MMR bandwagon. If you just want to blame vaccines it is an agenda not hypothesis.
front pages of 2 very different journal articles about thimerosal
20 years ago I taught a class on how to recognize good scientific methodology from bad. David Geier who will lead Kennedy's "research team" was the exemplar of bad practice. Back then, he was touting thimerosal as causative. If you just want to blame vaccines it's an agenda, not hypothesis #autism

Now Iβm even more jealous! Would love to be where you are.

Iβm jealous. What zone?
So NOW theyβre worried about the children! As weβre witnessing the normalization of pediatric deaths from preventable diseases just like the deaths from school shootings. Nice sound bite but a little hard to swallow.
I will never forgive Bloomberg news for normalizing Trump and giving him a HUGE platform by interviewing him on October 15.
Can you please RT and follow us so we can overtake them them on Bluesky?
This will be a huge victory for new media. ππ

Let it snow - not like I have any choice about it. But when the growing season ends outside, I'm grateful to have a green refuge to go to weather the storm.
@humbleservant.bsky.social @bookwoman24.bsky.social Consider rallying your networks to give Congressman Landsman's office a call (202-225-2216) to ask for a no vote. He voted yes on this bill the first time around before it was clear it could be weaponized by the new administration.

Ohio didn't get the memo. We tried, but our once purple state went down in flames.
Many of us are echoing @timothysnyder.bsky.social's lesson in On Tyranny, "Do not obey in advance.β
A no less vital admonition that deserves attn:
STAND OUT
β...without that unease, there is no freedom. The moment you set an example, the spell of the status quo is broken, and others will follow."
@humbleservant.bsky.social @bookwoman24.bsky.social great to see you here.

go.bsky.app/Jh5XC3k I'm learning the ropes of this new(ish) platform but so far I like it a lot. So much like OLD Twitter.
π’ Millions of $ have been spent on the hundreds of studies to amass the evidence that vaccines do not cause autism (neither thimerosal in multi-dose vials nor single dose MMRs). Now we'll spend Millions more, money that could have gone to services or more productive research.
