“Fortunately, others took the claim seriously in a very different sense. They did massive studies involving half a million children in Denmark and 2 million children in Sweden.”
It’s called “mopping up” and is one of the reasons the “settled science” paradigm is hard to break. In our time of apathy + stupidity + drugged up + spiritual illiteracy + political manipulation through media and education paradigms are probably unassailable. I know three kids who were fine before vaccinations and became autistic after. That tells me a lot more than this socially motivated/situated research. Before anyone tries to tell me how stupid and unscientific I am, read Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.
I would not refer to you as stupid and unscientific.
I hold no medical degree and I gather you do not either.
What you do seem to be doing, though, falls under the logical fallacy of correlation equaling causation.
“I know three kids who were fine before vaccinations and became autistic after.”
I know three kids who had autism before being vaccinated. Obviously some type of time warp involved?
