So it's been a while

since I read Bad Science. I'm catching up on back issues. Which means lots of links for you lovely folks.

Once more into the breach on Autism vs vaccination... a specious correlation so wide-spread into 'common knowledge' that clients have declined vaccinations for puppies despite my best efforts to educate that them that 1: vaccines don't cause autism, 2: dogs don't get autism anyway, even if vaccines did cause it in humans (which they don't-see 1), 3: dogs get Parvo regularly, 4: even if autism DID happen in dogs, and even if it WERE caused by vaccination, it's not fatal, and 5: Parvo kills dogs in a disgusting and decidedly uncomfortable manner (and we'll just not even get started on distemper...)
