Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

Trump ni ne izmišlja nove dezinformacije, nego plasira već prežvakane i desetine puta debunkane neistine. Sada je izajvio kako "Amiši ne dobijaju autizam". Vakcine ba to objašnjavale da nije istina prije koju godinu.

Nije istina da Amiši nikako ne primaju vakcine te da su zdraviji i nemaju autizam zbo toga - oni primaju vakcine, no u nešto manjem procentu.
