General Discussion

This is speculation,** but my bet is that they were presented actual data by qualified people they had not yet fired and decided they didn't have a basis on which to declare, As An Official Public Health Agency, that vaccines cause of autism. It's one thing to be an idiot asserting it is a book or a podcast. But even idiots sometimes recognize such a conclusion by DHS can't be baseless.

So, they were stuck. They pretty much announced that RFK would have the cause of autism all nailed down in a few months. If not vaccines, than what?

Presto. A review is published by Harvard showing a slight statistical association between prenatal Tylenol use and autism. Doesn't matter to them that the notion that the association was causal had already been ruled out by sibling studies that controlled for confounding factors (and RFK is so confounded by everything, he is incapable of grasping the concept of confounding factors in a scientific study).

So, they get all excited. This is the smoking gun!!! And Trump says "I got a big announcement Monday" and so they announce they have discovered the cause of autism. Done and dusted.

**It's speculation, but not out of nowhere. I know that after several presentations, RFK's vaccine commission, or study group, or whatever the shills are called, backed off voting on changing guidance on vaccines because a few of them noticed that they actually had absolutely no basis on which to make the changes they were happily planning to make.
