Now I have to decide how big a poison pill that is for me. I know that will taint his well for a lot of voters. It looks like he's the best not-Biden Democratic choice so far, nonetheless.

You’d be surprised the amount of truth behind the statement about autism. Watch some of the podcast he is in to hear more of why he believes what he does:)

Can you share a link?

The scientist who started this rumor was debunked almost immediately and stripped of his credibility

As the mother of an Autistic son, spending 20 yrs advocating and educating myself, we need to first be willing to understand that over 95% of the so called experts have been persuaded in some way to support and perpetuate their "professional stance". Environmental factors and external components we ingest or are injected with ALL have consequences. If you search it out and remain open, you will find that RFK Jr. has done his homework.

Anything you put in your body can have an adverse reaction. Some people are even allergic to water. The thing with autism is that people who develop it after receiving a vaccine were already carriers for the genes, and were likely to develop it anyways. There is no mechanism within vaccines that can cause autism if the genes aren't present. But a bad reaction to the vaccine could trigger a dormant gene. But so could any sort of trauma. My dad's entire family has the genes for myasthenia gravis and rheumatoid arthritis. But the only person to develop them was my aunt, shortly after getting in a very serious car accident and which resulted in her mom dying in a car accident rushing to see her in the hospital. Trauma can triggerots of dormant things in our body.

I think that everyone can agree that more research could help, at the very least, put more people at ease

exactly!
COVID opened everyone's eyes to the so called "professional consensus"
@9JJHFZGIndependent4mos4MO
Not only are there several small studies that show a link between Autism and vaccines but there has also been several court cases in which a vaccine/ vaccines have been ruled to be the cause of autisms in a child. The bigger problem is however that large studies especially placebo controlled trials have never been done and the pharmaceutical industry effectively blocks them from being done to understand the relationship between the two. This is the point that he stresses- we need to have better research on vaccines and end the conflicts of interest between our government agencies and the pharmaceutical companies. (I’m an RN btw)
@Patriot-#1776Constitution6mos6MO
He's not a democrat anymore, and his vaccine stances and free speech stances happen to be the only things I agree with him on
@9KL6JHC3mos3MO
If it makes you feel better he doesn’t want to ban vaccines. He repeatedly says he is not anti vaccine. He just wants more studies to be done about their long and short term effects. Currently the FDA requires testing related to efficacy but that doesn’t necessarily equate to safety. He also views (I don’t think this is too controversial) the FDA as a captured agency. Big pharma has way too much influence there. Some people consider that anti vax, but I think it would more accurately described as “ pro more research” and “anti corporate capture”
@9K26S7T 3mos3MO
He has extensive work experience actually in his resume that shows his personal experience. The way they used mecury which is toxic to humans in almost every vaccine and you see a huge spike after certain vaccines and Autism was found increasing expediently. If anyone knows the dangers it would be him.
