      Nope, the only one they looked at in relation to autism is the MMR.

      Repeating things does not, unfortunately, make them any more true

      Exactly. They've never properly looked at all the other vaccines in relation to autism. Therefore, you actually don't have conclusive evidence that vaccines have nothing to do with the onset of autism.

      I fear you've entirely misunderstood what I'm saying. They absolutely did look at other vaccines and overwhelmingly demonstrated no link at all

      # 1) MMR only addressed. (Coming back into play) # 2) No studies. Misleading info about Aluminum. ( I have a lot on Al adj) No proof that "vaccines do not cause autism"pic.twitter.com/socpkSdqG9

      Lol it's almost as if you picked a single sentence out of the abstract without reading the study or something I'm sure it's a wild coincidence

      As for aluminium, I'm 99% sure I've seen the table you'll cite (everyone uses the same one) and I can assure you every value in there describing "biologically available" aluminium is basically made up 😉

      So what study would you use to prove the safety of injected aluminium?

      I'd look at the very large systematic reviews on dozens of studies like the one I linked above, rather than a single study which might be misleading

          "While the consequences of adding aluminium to vaccines have been discussed broadly, no systematic review has been conducted to assess the effects of aluminium adjuvants across vaccines." http://cochranelibrary-wiley.com/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD012805/full …

          True. None that focus specifically on aluminium adjuvants. Many that focus on vaccines more broadly and have found no association between any vaccines and autism

          What is the mechanism by which Aluminum adjuvant can access the brain? Once it's in the brain, it will be there for years (7 year half life in the brain). It activates the microglial cells perpetually and causes other neuro-immune dysfunctions.pic.twitter.com/23eTCpm0XG

          Why do you think the aluminium in vaccines is different to that if, say, pears or baby food?
