Then he suggests the researchers did this on purpose. But the study only looked at what happened after kids turned two. This was done so early that health issues wouldn\u2019t be mistaken for vaccine problems.<\/p>\n<p>He also protests that 34,547 kids were removed because their vaccine records seemed \u201cimplausible.\u201d The study explains these records were clearly wrong, probably due to mistakes made when the vaccine registry had problems from 2014 to 2017. The authors add that leaving out these kids would actually push the results toward showing no effect, not toward making vaccines look safer.<\/p>\n<p>He says the study\u00a0has \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/topics\/medicine-and-dentistry\/healthy-user-bias#:~:text=Healthy%2Duser%20(or%20healthy%2D,measure%20in%20such%20data%20sources.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">healthy subject bias<\/a>\u201d and \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.feinberg.northwestern.edu\/sites\/firstdailylife\/docs\/JAMA%20Collider%20Bias.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">collider bias<\/a>\u201d after adjusting for how often kids saw their family doctor. But researchers adjusted for doctor visits to account for differences in healthcare use, which is normal in studies like this. Researchers adjust for how often people visit the doctor so any health differences they see come from the vaccine or medicine being studied, not from the fact that frequent doctor-visitors are already different from those who rarely go.<\/p>\n<p>He also claims the researchers hid a \u201czero-aluminum\u201d (unvaccinated) group in the data. Actually, only about 1.2% of the kids were unvaccinated. The authors point out that comparing such a tiny, possibly very different group would skew the results and weaken the statistics. This is standard logic in observational studies.<\/p>\n<p>These are just some of the flaws in this analysis.\u00a0The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acpjournals.org\/doi\/10.7326\/ANNALS-25-00997\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">study<\/a>\u00a0is reliable. It used health data from over 1.2 million children in Denmark, making it one of the largest studies of its kind. The researchers tracked these children for many years and used reliable national health records to look for long-term health problems like asthma, autism, and other chronic illnesses. They carefully adjusted for things like age, sex, and health history to make sure the comparisons were fair. They also ran extra tests and used different ways of looking at the data to double-check their results. Because of its size, long follow-up, and thorough design, the study gives strong evidence that aluminum in vaccines does not increase the risk of chronic diseases in children.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpex-post-cards-entry col col-1 span_1_of_1 post-14893 type-jtf_topics jtf_topic_subjects-218\"><div class=\"wpex-card wpex-card-template_10153\"><div class=\"wpex-card-inner\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid wpex-relative\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vcex-page-title vcex-module\"><h2 class=\"vcex-page-title__heading wpex-heading wpex-text-3xl\"><span class=\"vcex-page-title__text\">Did vaccines eradicate smallpox?<\/span><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid wpex-relative\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"vcex-post-content\">\n\t<style>.vc_custom_1708910874436{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;}<\/style>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"vcex-post-content-c wpex-clr\"><div class=\"wpb-content-wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_custom_1708910874436 wpex-relative wpex-vc_row-has-fill wpex-vc-reset-negative-margin\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid wpex-relative\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h3 style=\"text-align: left\" class=\"vc_custom_heading vc_do_custom_heading\" >The Claim:<\/h3>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Because this &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MidwesternDoc\/status\/1951441503420838301\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Midwestern Doctor<\/a>&#8221; says they didn&#8217;t.
