"Third measles death
This is not normal. For three reasons.

Another child has died of measles. An 8-year-old girl. Unvaccinated. No underlying health conditions.

This is unbelievably tragic—and entirely preventable. It’s also not normal in three important ways."

“David Geier is NOT a vaccine skeptic. Stop calling him that.
Letting him head an “investigation” into vaccines and autism will legitimize his decades of lies and illegal medical treatments that harmed children.”

ImmunoLogic · David Geier is NOT a vaccine skeptic. Stop calling him that. He’s anti-vaccine.By Dr. Andrea Love

#Autism diagnoses have increased globally over the last 60 years. Most of this rise is due to changes in how we define and diagnose it, but even standardized tracking suggests an increase.

What we _do_ know is that #vaccines have nothing to do with it. And every dollar spent chasing that disproven link is a dollar not spent on #research that could help parents and children.
