    I don’t get it, the pandemic is over… the vaccines worked, saved some lives…

    They are really sore losers aren’t they.

      The pandemic is over but the virus isn’t gone. You should get yearly shots like with the regular influenza flu. That said, I live in a country with health care and both shots are free.

        Vaccines do increase autism numbers.

        Most childhood vaccines are administered before symptoms of autism generally appear. A lot of children owed their lives to vaccines, and so got to develop autism, rather than dying.

          i see what you’re saying but please be careful framing it this way. The biggest reason by far for more autism diagnoses is greater awareness, access to healthcare, and expanding the criteria to less severe cases. We are simply identifying people with autism better than we used to.

            As a late diagnosed aspie, I fully get that. I also know that vaccines save a lot of lives, including fellow autistics.

            The phrasing is also fun to derail the brains of people complaining about vaccines. It can bypass their mental defences and makes them think for a moment. It doesn’t work on the hard core, but the casual idiots are easier to deprogram.

        Meanwhile the link between pollution and autism is pretty clear, and the ratfuckers are removing all environmental regulations. Autism will increase instead.
