Now, Weldon’s derailed nomination – in the context of the medical establishment’s two decades of trying to eradicate the vaccine-autism narrative – may have temporarily sucked the oxygen out of the room for alternative explanations for autism.
The CDC study coauthored by Thompson claimed similar percentages of children with autism (70.5%) and without (67.5%) were vaccinated for MMR between 12 and 17 months, and “similar proportions” each before 18 and 24 months, “the age by which atypical development is usually recognized in children with autism.”
“No significant associations for either of these age cutoffs were found for specific case subgroups, including those with evidence of developmental regression,” said the paper, published in the American Academy of Pediatrics’ journal Pediatrics.
While the full paper is hidden behind a paywall, the abstract page shows no sign of update 11 years after Thompson disclosed the findings for African-American males under 3.
