Vaccines kill and cause autism help

Are any of those papers by Andrew Wakefield?

Alternatively, you could compile literally a thousand papers that argue the opposite. This is just confirmation bias in action.

Uh, the vast majority of these links are opinion pieces or qualitative reviews rather than empirical studies. Most of them aren’t actually directly discussing the relationship between vaccines and autism specifically, rather things that sound like they might be vaguely related. Finally some of the links don’t even have the abstract accessible.

Bombarding someone with endless hyperlinks to bamboozle them into submission isn’t particularly grounds for sensible debate as the amount of information contained within is too vast. It’s a weak debating strategy.

I don't understand what you mean? I think I'll drop the argument with the anti vaxxer it's not going anywhere

Yes. You won't get anywhere, it's like arguing with a flat-earther.

This technique is known as the Gish Gallop, where you present so many arguments in a short space of time that it's impossible to counter all of them.

Just because there is a study on it doesn't mean it is a good study - you always have to be vigiliant

Thank you for posting 'studies' that I have to pay in order to read them.

I really do appreciate it /s

Not to mention that most of them are reviews and not studies.

It seems that you have provided a court rulling in the US, so I will post one here as well

Ooops, looks like the court sided with HHS because 'they had failed to demonstrate that thimerosal-containing vaccines in combination with the MMR vaccine could cause autism'.

Not to mention that the ruling that you have posted doesn't have anything to do with Autism.

Thanks for your help, just to be clear these aren't my own views but links I have been given.
