From the Morgan Verkamp link:

My name is William Thompson. I am a Senior Scientist with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, where I have worked since 1998.

I regret that my coauthors and I omitted statistically significant information in our 2004 article published in the journal Pediatrics. The omitted data suggested that African American males who received the MMR vaccine before age 36 months were at increased risk for autism. Decisions were made regarding which findings to report after the data were collected, and I believe that the final study protocol was not followed...

The actions Dr. Thompson is reporting is a manipulation of data by the CDC that could explain why no such link has been proven or demonstrated to exist.

Such manipulation, which brings to mind the hockey stick horror created by global warming activist scientists in an attempt to sell the carbon tax, is itself a serious threat to scientific literacy and public health.

Don’t muddy the discussion with facts. Many people like the plantation.
