If there's artificial intelligence, there's bound to be some artificial stupidity.

Some of the stuff he says is true, but he is also excluding those articles that really have done some science on this. And he is talking a lot about single cases and then he is critising one study where they only used 17 children.
And he claims that it s proven a lot without showing the fact for what he is claiming.. And also the amalgam claims with alzheimer is untrue.

Like the Thimerosal-containing vaccines and autistic spectrum disorder
by Parker SK, Schwartz B, Todd J, Pickering LK.
But I agree with him that if thimerosal can be exchanged then it should, its an old and outdated preservative, which doesnt work that good as a preservative, but its very cheap.

my my, now who would have thought about that:
The proposal that the use of mercury preservatives in vaccines can cause autism bucked the consensus that childhood vaccinations are safe. But it failed the first test: epidemiological data showed no link between the use of mercury in vaccines and climbing rates of autism in a number of countries. Now, investigative reporting by the Times of London reveals that it has failed the second: the medical researchers pushing the link had a massive financial incentive for doing so.
The Times obtained a record of the payments made by the legal teams that have pursued lawsuits against vaccine makers on behalf of autistic children in England. It revealed that the primary author of the first paper that suggested a mercury-autism link, Dr. Andrew Wakefield, began receiving payments from the lawyers starting a full two years before his first published study on the topic. In the decade since, Dr. Wakefield has received a total of over £435,000. Several of his business associates and co-workers received over £100,000; all told, roughly £3.4 million was paid out for the expert work and testimony of doctors associated with the research. In a further conflict of interest, the autistic children that were the subjects of the studies were also the plaintiffs in the lawsuit.
