In reply to the discussion: Does fetal tissue in vaccines cause autism? [View all]truedelphi
(32,324 posts)Vaccines, we wouldn't need internet alternative sites as the only ones that carry a discussion of some serious discussion points. But here is a reason that Big Pharma keeps careful control over the Media. For instance , over in France, where the vaccination issue is discussed much more freely in the French press and on TV and radio, the French population rejected flu vaccines. One flu season recently in a nation of 80 million people, only five million doses of vaccine were administered!
Why is it that Big Pharma spend such a fortune on drug ads, so that every other commercial during prime time is about Big Pharma drugs? Why indeed? Could it be because although media studies show that people no longer respond to those ads, he ads carry weight with the TV execs. Yes the tens of millions of dollars that the TV station receives means that they will never let their news people talk about the vaccination issue from a dialectical standpoint!
Besides that:
Are you even aware of the major and damning design flaws in the two major studies regarding autism, the two studies that are pointed to as the "proof" that vaccines do not cause autism?
One study looked at data regarding children and vaccines, from the era when vaccines contained mercury. The second group of data came from children who were infants and/or kids who had been vaccinated with vaccine material in which formaldehyde was substituted for the mercury.
Although formaldehyde is slightly slightly less toxic than mercury, it is still very toxic. Especially when induced into the bodies of infants and children. This study is like if you had a group of kids who drinking water contained kerosene and then you replaced the kerosene with gasoline that was a bit more diluted than the kerosene found in the first aquifers. The design of the study was indeed flawed.
So that study needs to be disregarded, because what we needed and deserved was a study in which infants and children's data came from a group where there was mercury in the vaccines versus a group that had not been vaccinated.
The second study was not really a study at all. It simply took the great numbers of studies out there that QUOTE prove UnQUOTE that vaccines do not cause autism and then counted up the number of studies that show there are indications that vaccines could be a suspect in the cause of autism.
Of course, the first group of studies outnumbered the second, as the indie researchers have no where near the amounts of funding.
If this is how the state of California had looked at the issue of MTBE's risk or safety, we would still have that toxin n our gasoline, destroying our health, our water and our air. There were thousands of studies showing that MTBE was fine. Meanwhile there were only TWO accredited studies that showed it is a poison. However those two were correct. While the other "thousands of studies" were bogus.
