French article featured

I noticed that the French article on the same topic is a featured article, and translating from it may be useful. I won't add a template because templates are ugly and I'm not sure if translating from the French article is useful. FunLater (talk) 00:16, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I should not speak on this but

This page should be protected to only be edited by admins, pages like these are prime candidates for right-wing political vandalism. AmericanAccount704 (talk) 18:59, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a well documented relationship between the two. This substack is basically accusing the CDC of genocide. Kind of like when they gave black men syphilis and then lied about treating them for it.

No, ANTIVA vandalism. Which is mainly, these days, the far-right, but also some far-left kooks too.

What ANTIVA grifters like Kirsch never mention is that a real scientist who proved a link between vaccines and autism would have their career made for life. Not only would they be the darling of ANTIVA, but they would overturn a scientific consensus, much like Marshall and Warren, who got a Nobel for their work. So the idea that there is "proof" in publicly available documents is risible. Guy (help! - typo?) 09:28, 8 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

New research about vaccines and autistic disorder

I would consider mentioning new research https://publichealthpolicyjournal.com/vaccination-and-neurodevelopmental-disorders-a-study-of-nine-year-old-children-enrolled-in-medicaid/#results describing potentially autistic causing impact of various vaccines.
