This is not true. A lie repeated a bunch of times is still a lie.

And a denial does not make it false, either.

I have no thoughts on this one way or the other. However, lack of proof does not mean proof of no causation.

If you read the quote that I said was not true, you’ll see I was actually referring to the fact that a “report was leaked which links...” THAT was not true. There is no study (or official report of such study) that describes a link between the drug and autism. There are only opinion-based article written by the likes of Rolling Stone magazine and Jenny McCarthy. I personally don’t believe the drug/autism link is true as well, but that is a secondary point which I wasn’t making.

However, I understand that I wasn’t very clear.
