The Secretary of Health and Human Services recently baselessly claimed that steroids, antibiotics, and cod liver oil yielded “very good results" with measles.
what’s hilarious is, if you read the actual study from '94, that suggested there might be a link… a middleschool-level of science is needed to refute it.
Remember, correlation is not causation, and that’s all they really had. worse, they looked at 12 kids and zoomed in on the MMR vaccine. Which was incredibly common. Pretty much everyone between like the fifties or sixties until the 90’s had vaccines.
if correlation is causation, and 12 kids is enough to establish correlation… then have more to consider there. I presume they were all, you know, wearing clothes, for example. Or shoes. Or had hair. They all probably spent time outside, too, in the sunlight. They all probably slept at night. OOO I know. They all probably ate food. and drank water, and not-water-stuffs. PB&J sandwiches.
edit to add: pluto was discovered the same year the diagnostic rules for autism were established, too. so pluto, the planet, causes autism.
Yes it is, and I have the solar quest board game board to prove it.
Also, I will fight you. Nobody does Pluto dirty like that.
(For the record, the reclassified it to “dwarf planet” so it’s still a planet. I also understand why they did, but they could have made an exception…. Maybe even turn it into a “fun fact” lesson. Instead… they chose violence.)

So autistic people are from Pluto? Illegal aliens? Pluto is covered with ICE, that must be how they got here. Deported.
Pluto isn’t a planet.
Argument destroyed, pharma shill ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
