    Antivaxxers often demand The One True Study that proves everything they ask for. Science doesn’t work that way. It relies on many studies using different methodologies converging on the same conclusion. There is almost never One True Study.https://twitter.com/med1cinewoman/status/1220080439869632512 …

    Could you share the study done on the combined CDC recommended schedule? Studies on synergistic toxicity, mutagenicity, carcinogenicity?Studies comparing long-term effects on health in vaccinated vs. unvaccinated? Study on the safety of aluminum adjuvants? Would love to see them.

        They think randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled studies are the only valid way to do studies too. 🙄

        And yet none of the stuff they use is tested at all.

        Yes! That’s exactly what it is. Antivaxxers are not the only cranks who engage in this fallacy.

        Not to mention that even if such a study existed, and even if it's results were repeated, the antivaxxers would still just deny it unless it gave the answer they already decided that they wanted to be told.

        AVs would shift the goalpost and ask for something else. Eg, "have you included 6 different types of breakfast cereals and tested them for synergistic interaction?" Fact: Complex interactions are super rare. When we find one, we publish. Else, one should not chase the ghosts.

        She’s asking for several studies not just one. If you are going to say that all vaccines are safe then you are just wrong. It’s not a black and white issue. Use some common sense, research and listen to your doctor.

        "Research and listen to your doctor," he says to the doctor who's spent years researching* this topic. *Real research, not anecdotes and cherrypicked lines from studies you don't have the training to comprehend.
