Vaccines have not been shown to cause alpha-gal syndrome, an allergy linked to tick bites. Cases cluster where lone star ticks live.
Vaccines do not cause autism, and there is no evidence splitting doses would prevent it. A 2025 WHO review reached the same conclusion.
The claim that unvaccinated Amish children are healthier is false. Studies find no vaccine-autism link, and vaccines protect against serious disease.
Community immunity does not require perfect vaccines. About 93% immunity can slow measles spread, contrary to Brian Hooker’s claim.
MMR vaccines are not killing children. The Zenodo paper relies on VAERS data that cannot by itself show vaccines caused deaths.
Vaccines do not cause autism. Large studies, including a 2026 study of 2.5 million U.S. children after MMR vaccination, find no link.
Most measles cases are in unvaccinated or unknown-status people, not evidence of MMR waning. COVID vaccines protect children, studies confirm.
Vaccines don’t cause autism. The retracted Hooker reanalysis behind Vaxxed used flawed methods; a Danish study of 650,000 children found no link.
In a new video, Dr. Sherri Tenpenny claims that before the vaccine, measles deaths were very rare and that the vaccine isn’t needed.
A recent research paper from Peter McCollough’s group says that 299 deaths in the U.S. were reported after MMR vaccines, mostly in very young children, soon after getting the shot.
