For years, the government, medical establishment and vaccine industry have insisted that any science linking vaccines to autism is not to be believed.

But what if the government’s own pro-vaccine medical expert, who helped defend vaccines in federal vaccine court, privately told the government that vaccines can cause autism, after all? And what if the government not only covered that up but went on to misrepresent his opinion to debunk vaccine-autism lawsuits?

That’s the allegation from a world renowned pro-vaccine pediatric neurologist and we dig into the controversy Sunday in a story you’ll only see on Full Measure.

We’ll also have a story on improving the polls. How will the industry improve for 2020 so that polling is viewed as more accurate? An expert fills us in.

And next time you pour delicious maple syrup on your pancakes, we’ll give you something to think about: Canada’s maple syrup cartel. Joce Sterman has that story.

See you Sunday for more Original Reporting! Station times at the link below.

    • In the 1950s Autism Rates in the US were about 2 in 10,000. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) claims the Autism Rate is 1 in 59 in their latest reported data. In 1950 children received 7 vaccines by age 6. As of the year 2013 children received 36 vaccines by age 6. The US 1986 Vaccine Injury Compensation Act gave vaccine makers full immunity from injury liability. The administration assigned Health and Human Services (HHS) with various tasks to ensure vaccine safety. They were required to send reports to Congress addressing vaccine issues. A 2018 lawsuit found that HHS could provide no such reports for the 32 year period they were tasked with this mission. The decision of the court was against the US Government concerning this matter. These are all factual matters, not sheep like blind belief in the opinions of so-called scientific experts and ill-informed doctors.
