No, the CDC didn’t report that masks are ineffective against COVID-19
Let’s put this another way. Masks don’t work if you wear them “all the time” but not when you are in the most risky situations. Imagine sitting down to drinks with your friends and saying, “Hey, I wore a mask all day. So I’m safe drinking my beer and talking to you all while in […]

Anti-vaccine activist on the Proud Boys: “They seemed like really good guys”
Over the past four years many extremist and conspiracy theorist groups have been connecting and even forming alliances. The pandemic and the shelter in place orders have probably increased this trend, with anti-vaccine activists and other conspiracy groups joining with extremist groups in protests online and in person. This isn’t entirely new. Recall a few […]

Mr Trump, Mr Azar, your inaction is hurting autistic people
You took credit for it, but it is meaningless if it isn’t implemented. You are short changing people with disabilities. Mr. Trump, a year ago you signed the Autism Cares Act into law. September 30, 2019. That law calls for the formation of the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (the IACC). Which has yet to be […]

Trump’s strategy in the debate was to abuse Biden’s disability. That should sicken any real American.
Biden is a stutterer. He’s learned how to communicate clearly but that involves focus. There’s a great story in The Atlantic on this: John Hendrickson’s What Joe Biden Can’t Bring Himself to Say. Here is one paragraph discussing possible ongoing strategies Biden has: Eric S. Jackson, an assistant professor of communicative sciences and disorders at […]

So where is that economic miracle, Donald?
There’s a reason why Trump isn’t talking GDP growth these days. It’s because he failed by that measure. Four years ago Donald Trump was able to sell America that the economy was in bad shape (it wasn’t) and that he, a businessman, could help. Many Trump supporters have told me then and now how we […]

Wakefield continues his climb to the top of the heap. The dung heap.
and Medscape named him the worse doctor of 2011 (worse than Michael Jacksons doc!):

It’s amusing and interesting to see people so concerned about protecting Wakefield, yet those same people don’t seem to mind that Jenny McCarthy’s son never had acutal autism. He has landau kleffner syndome.
Harry,
I’ve seen that speculated, even in the scientific literature by an expert, but have not seen it confirmed.
Harry, as Sullivan states I don’t know those claim has ever been confirmed so I think some benefit of doubt should be given that it is in fact autism. What concerns me more about Jenny is that she does not seem to openly talk about the intensive ABA her son did.
