Fun fact: The doctor that made the "Vaccine causes Autism" claim has been disproven multiple times and even lost his doctorate for it

Do you mean the doctor who was trying to get his vaccines used and the discovered the combined MMR vaccine “caused autism” while his vaccines were safe? (I can’t remember if it was his vaccines or those of a company funding his research but the point still stands)

He had money invested in 3 separate vaccines that a company was attempting to peddle to replace the MMR jab.

So while it may not have been his vaccines, he still had a financial interest in it

If I remember correctly, he had a patent for a measles vaccine which he patented right after "discovering" the link between autism and the mmr vaccine
