First, RFK Jr.\u00a0references this\u00a0abstract<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0Verstraeten, claiming a 1135% increase in Autism risk. The increase found in the abstract was 760% (risk ratio of 7.6), not 1135%, but more importantly, this increase isn’t found in other research. This is merely an abstract, a first\u00a0look at numbers that haven’t been fully investigated or peer reviewed.<\/p>\n

In this abstract, they don’t talk about the study population or the criteria for which diagnoses were obtained.\u00a0In order to conclude that there is an association between vaccines and autism,\u00a0the author\u00a0published this fully reviewed study\u00a0here<\/a>. That study\u00a0showed no association between thimerosal<\/a> and autism.<\/p>\n

It’s important to note that this abstract was written in 1999. By 2001, thimerosal was removed from all childhood vaccines. Yet, autism rates continue to rise despite the lack of thimerosal. Importantly, experts attribute this rise to changes in\u00a0diagnostic criteria<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
