2014, CDC whistleblower press release:

"...i regret my coauthors and i omitted statistically significant information in our 2004 article published in journal Pediatrics. the omitted data suggested AA males who received MMR vaccine before age 36 mo were at increased risk for autism..."

2014, CDC statement on CDC whistleblower:

The study looked at different age groups: children vaccinated by 18 months, 24 months, and 36 months. The findings revealed that vaccination between 24 and 36 months was "slightly" more common among children with autism, and that association was strongest among children 3-5 years of age. The authors reported this finding was most likely a result of immunization requirements for preschool special education program attendance in children with autism.

So instead of retracting the admitted fraud, in 2014 the CDC decided to double-down, and claim (without evidence) that the reason vaccines are linked to autism is because autism causes vaccines

The CDC could not show where a single child in their study had ever attended any special needs pre-school, or was vaccinated because of that preschool.

The CDC went on to claim (without evidence) that their fraudulent study had been properly replicated (per the scientific method) which appears to be another false statement, since nobody can find the newer studies that replicated the fraudulent CDC study.

And instead of Snopes admitting the CDC whistleblower claim was true, Snopes decided to call it “false” based on something someone else did with the data that the CDC decided fo omit.

And instead of addressing the facts that the CDC whistleblower disclosed, the notorious pro-vaccine shill Dr David Gorski went for the ad hominem attack, and said Dr William Thompson was “anti-vaccine”, as if that somehow makes Thompson less credible.

Quote:

"Oh my God, i cannot believe that we did what we did, but we did it. It's all there. This is the lowest point in my career, that I went along with that paper. I have great shame now when I meet families of kids with autism, because I have been part of the problem"
