link between the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine and autism risk in young Black boys.
RFK Jr. Says CDC Ordered Scientist to DESTROY Autism Data Linking Measles Vaccine to Black Children in 2002
In 2004, a CDC-backed case-control study in Atlanta compared 624 children with autism to 1,824 without, assessing whether timing of MMR vaccination (before vs. after 18 or 24 months) was linked to autism risk. It found no significant association.
While the 2004 study did not find a causal link, a later re-analysis of the same data received significant attention.
A 2014 study published in Translational Neurodegeneration re-examined the CDC’s dataset and claimed to find an increased autism risk among African American boys who received the MMR vaccine before 36 months of age.
According to the 2014 study, “The present study provides new epidemiologic evidence showing that African American males receiving the MMR vaccine prior to 24 months of age or 36 months of age are more likely to receive an autism diagnosis.”
According to RFK Jr., the findings were explosive:
“The data from that study showed that black boys who got the vaccine on time had a 260% greater chance of getting an autism diagnosis than children who waited,” Kennedy testified.
“The chief scientist on that, Dr. William Thompson, the Senior Vaccine Safety Scientist at CDC, was ordered to come into a room with four other co-authors by his boss, Frank DeStefano, who’s the head of the safety press, and ordered to destroy that data. Then they published it without that fact.”

Big Pharma Campaign Contributions Reveal Politicians Fixed on Drug Companies
Seventy-two senators and 302 members of the House of Representatives cashed a check from the pharmaceutical industry ahead of the 2020 election — representing more than two-thirds of Congress.
During the first year of Covid, Pfizer’s political action committee alone contributed to 228 lawmakers. Amgen’s PAC donated to 218, meaning that each company helped to fund the campaigns of nearly half the lawmakers on Capitol Hill. Overall, the sector donated $14 million.
In addition to giving roughly $1 million to members of Congress, Pfizer also wrote checks to 1,048 individual candidates in state legislative races.
During the ‘17-’18 election cycle, Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), the recently ousted Speaker of the House, received a total of $380,350 in campaign contributions from Big Pharma lobbyists. Last year, he received $201,828.
Beto O’Rourke, who failed as a potential 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, received $171,255.
Mitch McConnell, received $149,113, with Eli Lilly being the prevailing big pharma company.
RINO Texas Senator John Cornyn received $120,000.
