The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

CDC Changes Webpage to Suggest Autism–Vaccine Link
Experts warn this disinformation will harm the public

By Meaghan Lee Callaghan

The CDC has updated its website to remove the agency’s longstanding position that there is no credible evidence linking vaccines to autism. In its place, the agency has added text asserting there is not enough literature to make such a claim, and that questions remain as to whether autism may be caused in part by components of vaccines.

The page, updated Nov. 19, now states: “The claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism. The CDC website also asserts that U.S. health authorities have “ignored” studies suggesting a link and goes on to summarize vaccine research and potential future areas of study that could reveal a connection—though none currently do. Finally, the CDC website claims the Department of Health and Human Services is conducting a “comprehensive assessment of the causes of autism, including investigations on plausible biologic mechanisms and potential causal links.”
