      Essentially you're postulating a global conspiracy of governments and scientists rather than accept that perhaps there's no evidence for your case Very scientific of you

      Here's what we do know. You have not indicated any flaw in my hypothesis.

      Some flaws: 1. your hypothesis would necessitate the bioaccumulation in adults of enormous quantities of aluminium in the brain. This has not been found 2. your hypothesis requires all infants to be exposed to one of these live viruses, something not demonstrated etc etc etc

      1) Cite a study where it was measured. 2) Really? An epidemiologists doesn't know the prevalence of Herpes viruses for example?

      1. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22045115  2. in neonates? Very, very low. Somewhere between 0.01 and 0.0001% Herpes is deadly to newborns

      1. Come on now. Al adj use in earnest ~1985. How old were these "aged" brains at death? Were they from autistics? - No. 2. al adj absorbs slowly (months to complete) and is not lethal to phagocytes which can survive for months with Al adj onboard.

      1. Makes no difference. Adults are exposed to ~15mg/day aluminium orally. That's a HUGE amount over a lifetime, if your hypothesis was correct 2. So...the aluminium is absorbed in the first 6 months, except not in the first 6 months at all! It's absorbed...sometime. Maybe. Or not

      1. Huge, not! 9.855-98.55 ug in the brain after 60 years from ~15mg/day Al orally. (1200 ugs from just one vax-day in the U.S.!) 2. For the record. Whatever you just said is not what I said.pic.twitter.com/RPkIRxNx6d

      Lol. Total gibberish and in no way answers. And these are just the two potential issues off the top of my head That's why you need evidence to support your wild theories 😉

      Wow! U got mad tactical skills! That's why I provided scientific evidence earlier. Sorry that you cannot follow my excel spreadsheet. BTW - Despite your soft-ridicule, I appreciate the opportunity to discuss the matter with u. I learned a few things.

      No you've got a hypothesis atm. I'd suggest finding a study that demonstrates our actually happens in people, then getting back to me. Also, would help to work out the obvious flaws
