  I suppose I wasn’t clear, but I was referring to the fella who first came out and said the MMR vaccine was linked to autism, which was fraudulent of course and there’s a good documentary about it, but I mentioned it specifically because he was taking children’s blood unethically. Mad cow disease is less relevant but it’s more broadly an example of unethical treatment leading to an epidemic.

    Thank you! I thought you were claiming "vaccines cause autism and mad cow disease." If you can recall the title of the doc, please drop it, I'd love to see it, in due time.

    Thanks again.

      I did wonder what people were thinking I was saying, haha, but I accept I must’ve just written it clumsily.

      Here’s the documentary on youtube, it’s actually a standout example of investigative journalism: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UbL8opM6TM

      And there’s this youtube video essay based on it which sexes it up a bit: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BIcAZxFfrc
