šØ A new study is making waves with claims of a link between vaccines and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including autismābut letās break it down. š§
At first glance, the findings seem alarming, but a closer look reveals serious flaws in methodology, bias, and misinterpretations that completely undermine its conclusions. Hereās what you need to know:
š¹ The study was published in a questionable journal with unclear peer-review standards, funded by anti-vaccine groups, and promoted on blogs instead of reputable scientific channels.
š¹ It misinterprets healthcare utilizationāvaccinated kids have more medical visits, leading to more opportunities for diagnosis, not a causal link between vaccines and autism.
š¹ It contradicts decades of high-quality research involving millions of children, all showing NO link between vaccines and autism.
Bad science fuels fear. Vaccines remain one of the safest, most effective ways to protect children. Letās not let misinformation put lives at risk. šā¤ļø
