About fifteen years ago, the government secretly paid a multimillion-dollar settlement for autism and other vaccine damage to young Hannah Poling, then sealed the case to keep it secret. When the settlement leaked out to the press, the government spun the story like a top. Okay, yes, maybe we paid for Hannah’s vaccine injuries. But vaccines triggered her autism. They didn’t cause her autism. See? The link isn’t causal. So vaccines don’t “cause” autism.
