Perhaps but I think the anti-vaxxers are very guilty of ‘Picking the expert who says the things they agree with.’ scouring the web for ‘experts’ who reinforce their anti-vaxxer beliefs while rejecting any information that contradicts that belief.
For example, using irrelevant criteria such as Obama’s birth certificate to reject real data on vaccines. A quick web search will reveal multiple sources other than Fact Check thar repudiate your claim.

The people you rely upon for anti-vaxxer information are known grifters profiting from snake oil and web clicks.
I’m not apt to trust sources who I know from first-hand experience are liars. I don’t think that the people doing the scientific study in Japan (the only source I mentioned) are profiting from snake oil and web clicks. Nor do I think that Stanford and the other sources mentioned by another poster are profiting that way. And the subject of this thread is a study by scientists in Turkey. Are you really claiming that they just want clicks on a website? And do you really believe that a “fact-checking” site that only mentions one study rather than doing a meta-study of all the scientific research is NOT cherry-picking sources?
Anthony Fauci, though, has financial stakes in the pharmaceutical companies, as do a bunch of people who wanted to hide the safety information on their products until - what? 2080?
I’m not interested in this conversation because you are making assumptions about me that are not true and are accusing me of the very things you are doing. For instance, I am not even an anti-vaxxer, and you’re accusing me of things based solely on your assumption that I am.
No thank you.
Have a good life.
