You’re right, it is bad data. But- if this scares some one who’s hesitant into keeping their kids safe, I’m not gonna apologize. She had five kids. Lost one because of a stupid fucking decision, and as this goes on, it’s only going to get worse.
I checked the rate of autism, not very authoritatively, mind, 1 in 36 are diagnosed. So if you have a better rate on that, I’d be happy to update.
As for if it’s the vaccine causing autism? The study they all sight used 12 kids that all had autism and all had the then-modern MMR vax. Pretty sure they all wore clothes. Also pretty sure they all ate pb&js.
I get what you were saying and in spirit I agree. Emotionally I want them to know how stupid they are. I definitely agree that getting people to take vaccines is worth any amount of effort. However, I feel like rhetoric with bad data representation gives fuel to the other side rather than scaring the people who need to be scared though.
