What the leading vaccinologist said about whether DTaP and Tdap cause autism…

[00:00:00]But I did have a chance to depose the world's leading vaccinologist about the claim with regard to pertussis vaccine autism. And here you can take a moment to to see what he had to say about that on that score.

[00:00:13]This is an excerpt from the IOM's report. Mhm. Right? Yes. Okay.

[00:00:19]Can you read the causality conclusion with regard to whether DTaP and Tdap cause autism? The evidence is inadequate to accept or reject a causal relationship between diphtheria toxoid, tetanus toxoid, or acellular pertussis-containing vaccine and autism.

[00:00:37]If you don't know whether DTaP or Tdap cause autism, shouldn't you wait until you do know until you have the science to support it to then say that vaccines do not cause autism?

[00:00:56]Do I wait?

[00:00:57]No.

[00:00:59]I do not wait because I have to take into account the health of the child.

[00:01:08]And and so for that reason, you're okay with telling the parent that DTaP Tdap does not cause autism even though the science isn't there yet to support that claim. Absolutely.

[00:01:25]Well, there you have it from the mouth of the world's leading vaccinologist.

[00:01:28]They will tell you the vaccines don't cause autism even when they don't have the evidence to support that claim.
