Why are there so many studies trying to find a link between vaccines, especially the MMR, and autism?

UPDATE: Weldon's nomination was just pulled

I would just get another MMR if I was over 50. Just like some people have bad memories, some people’s immune systems just arent able to retain things over a half century.

#RFKJr is claiming that the best protection against #measles is the breast milk of a woman whose blood is untainted by #vaccines.

No, really.

Just got my #MMR #vaccine booster, as I’m old enough to remember getting the very first shot in elementary school. Be aware that some pharmacies are having trouble getting it in stock through their wholesalers. I had to call around town to find one that had it. (For those of you with #LongCovid, I’m not having the total fatigue afterwards that I did with the shingles, Covid and flu shots, even though the MMR contains live virus.)

Don't trust for what? Keeping her alive? And who should trust you, recklessly letting a deadly contagion run free?

Man Whose Daughter Died From Measles Stands by Failure to Vaccinate Her: "The Vaccination Has Stuff We Don’t Trust"

"Everybody has to die."

It's JUST measles! A lot of people do not remember the pre-vaccine days.
Thanks to @darcrich.bsky.social

"It didn’t occur to me that I would instead have to worry about #measles — a disease once eradicated in the United States that now poses a serious threat to children who, like my daughter, are too young to receive the scientifically proven safe and effective #vaccine."

The NIH is abruptly terminating at least 33 research grants for projects studying #vaccine hesitancy. Projects studying mRNA vaccines may be next.

Nothing to see here…

#NIH to terminate or limit grants related to #vaccine hesitancy & uptake

The order covers more than 40 awards to researchers around the country seeking to understand why vaccine acceptance has declined.

A news release says the spending would help provide new malaria vaccines to 50 million children and human papillomavirus protection to 120 million girls.

The funding would improve storage of children's vaccine doses in remote areas and provide an unspecified number of vaccines for mpox, previously known as monkeypox.

"57% decreased odds of 1 or more PCC symptoms and a 73% decreased odds of 2 or more PCC symptoms" - that's dramatically lower odds of a child suffering:

unable to remember
unable to focus
unable to exercise
headache
insomnia
lightheadedness, fainting
extreme fatigue
loss of vivacity, joie de vivre
personality changes
hospitalization and death

Protect your children.

Otherwise, if they survive, they will wonder why you didn't protect them, when it costs only the time to get vaccinated, and a few pennies a day N95s and HEPA filters.

Otherwise, you might find yourself mourning the potential you KNEW your child had, and desperately hoping for treatments.

Treatments may never come. Neurons don't come back. Developmental windows close.

Don't be the ghoul that condemns your children, don't strip their future because it's not cool to mask. It might not be cool to wear a bike helmet either. Concussions can't be undone, either. Don't usher your children willingly into suffering and disability.

DON'T FUCKING STACK THE ODDS AGAINST YOUR KIDS.
