CDC Website Promotes Vaccine-Autism Link

In November 2025, the CDC, seemingly under pressure from the Trump administration and HHS Secretary RFK Jr., edited its official website to question the scientific consensus on vaccine safety. The agency adopted the illogical position that 'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim because studies haven't ruled out the possibility. This shift was widely condemned, as it forces science to prove a negative—a practically impossible task—thereby fueling misinformation and constituting institutional sabotage.
