Debunkinhg takes hours, misinformation seconds.

Don´t just post. If you didn´t read or understand the paper, don´t post it with conclusions from others. Be very careful with low-impact journals and with predatory journals as well as with pre-prints! If unsure, ask experts, or wait for them.

We have struggled many years in the autistic community to educate the public vaccines are safe. Vaccines don’t make people autistic. Autistic people are targeted. Fear of the community and stigmatization are the result. The antivax make lots of money off the backs of the autistic community.

The Kennedy grifters get in there and offer confused fearful parents detoxing and treatments for their autistic kids. The selling point is that vaccines caused this but they can treat the child with fake cures. Big dollars are being make from fraud and lies on the backs of autistic kids.

For parents with children who are disabled or autistic etc. the Christian and private school don’t really have places for them. And they really don’t like special education students. It would be very difficult to get the special needs kids to get any education.

🐶🐱🐩🐕🐈 Vaccines for animals are safe. So many pets have been spared horrible diseases because their humans loved them enough to vaccinate.

YouGov America @today.yougov.com · 12d

A chart of YouGov polling data with the headline: "30% of MAGA Republicans think vaccines are unsafe in general, but only 12% say they're unsafe for dogs and cats."

The chart's sub-headline is: "How safe do you think vaccines generally are [for dogs and cats]? (%)."

The chart has the note: "Note: MAGA Republican status comes from the question, "Do you identify as a MAGA Republican?" Non-MAGA Republicans are those who say "no"; those who say "not sure" are not shown."

There is a Canadian homepathic quackster who uses the videos vaxxed 1 and 2 to educate about vaccines then he offers to sell them a vaccine detox for their autistic kids. Its all natural he claims Many of these things pass Health Canada. Its fraud and potentially dangerous.
