    Courts Quietly Confirm MMR Vaccine Causes Autism‏ | World Truth.TV

    "But in recent months, courts, governments and vaccine manufacturers have quietly conceded the fact that the Measles Mumps Rubella (MMR) vaccine most likely does cause autism and stomach diseases. Pharmaceutical companies have even gone so far as to pay out massive monetary awards, totaling in the millions, to the victims in an attempt to compensate them for damages and to buy their silence."

    If there was nothing wrong, why the payouts? You can follow the topics of the article to more "mainstream" sources with a few clicks of the mouse.

    Because the standard for verdicts in civil court is far far far lower than in science journals.

    A court confirming this is like a law stating that pi is equal to 3.

    1) To avoid an expensive public trial.
    2) Civil suits can be decided by a sympathetic jury- unlike a criminal trial where the jury has to rely on facts as presented. Everybody knows big pharma has deep pockets- and is an easy target once the case goes the civil suit route.

    I suppose you're right. What is the current cause célèbre anyway? The mob is already saying "treyvon who?"

    MMR also caused both WWI and WWII and the real estate collapse.
