A corrupt doctor did horrible things to vulnerable child patients (e.g. dangerous colonoscopies without proper consent) in order to make a B.S. article claiming the MMR vaccine causes autism, all to help a friend sell an alternative—separate Mumps, Measles, and Rubella vaccines—and make a shitload of money. It backfired, he lost his medical license and accidentally convinced half the U.S. that all vaccines are evil.
All vaccine/ autism pseudoscience that saw prominence starting in the 90’s based on one fraudulent paper written by a guy who claimed to be a doctor but was just straight up abusing kids to back up his claims and to sell his own product which was just MMR vaccine delivered in three seperate shots.
Product developed before fraudulent paper.
I’m aware of that. I am not sure why you told me to watch that video when I was trying to figure out why they chose folinic acid supplements specifically. Because folic acid and folinic acid can really make people with MTHFR deficiency sick, and for some it also worsens their autism symptoms.
My brain doesn’t handle videos very well, what’s the summary?

And Jenny McCarthy needed a scapegoat for why her child had “Autism.”
(Quotes because autism was all I heard, but neurodivergent wasn’t in common nomenclature back then…)
But if you go all the way back to the start of this…it’s the girl from singled out’s fault, she was duped by the horrible doctor too

Probably because someone already mentioned they have stock in it but uhh, sorry to step on your toes? God
