Vaccines Cause Autism

I will start off with rebuttals. And I'd like to point out that my opponent didn't refute any of my arguments in the previous round.Rebuttals1. It's important to remember that vaccine manufacturers fund the research on vaccines. Therefor vaccine researchers are less likely to be honest about their findings. There is a conflict of interest. Vaccine manufactures also spend 100million dollars a year on advertisements. That's more than any other industry including the oil industry.My opponent states that because vaccine manafacturers fund the research on vaccines, they're less likely to be honest about their findings. This isn't solid evidence that they lied about anything, and until there is, this isn't a valid point. My opponent also states that vaccine manufacturers spend 100 million dollars a year on advertisments. My opponent provided no sources to prove this, so this point is also invalid until there is a source to prove it.2. It's also important to note that there is little science on the molecular cellular level about vaccines.I'm not entirely sure what my opponent is trying to say here. Because the molecular biology is the mainly deals with the interactions of various systems inside a cell. Also, the "molecular cellular level" isn't an actual thing. Living organisms are classified into different levels, starting at the molecular level, THEN the cellular level, and then tissue, organ, and system level. I'd like my opponent to better clarify what they mean by "molecular cellular level" in the next round.3. The vaccines we have did not go through a 4 year clinical trial but a 16 month trial. This was very irresponsible and dangerous.My opponent does not provide any evidence for this. And they also don't give any reason as to HOW this was "very irresponsible and dangerous."3. Mercury and aluminum both cause brain damage. Eating aluminum is less likely to cause brain damage because it is excreted quickly. But aluminum is vaccines is made to stick around. Aluminum in vaccines causes brain damage. Vaccines also contain mercury.Again, my opponent provides NO SOURCES. Specifically, ALUMINUM SALTS are used in vaccines, they are non-toxic, and there is no evidence that these are related to any health effects[1]. As for mercury, specifically in vaccines, they use thimerosal, and that contains very low doses of mercury. These have not been linked to any bad side effects, but still, in 1999, vaccine manufacturers agreed that thimerosal levels should be reduced, but only as a PRECAUTIONARY measure[2.]4. Chris shaw a pediatrician did an experiment with mice, giving them aluminum and mercury. The test found that after receiving the mercury the mice became more irritable and suffered cognitive and physical damage. No one had debunked dr Shaws study. If he is wrong than the pro vaccine doctors should be able to debunk it but they.a won't because can't.My opponent provides very little detail on this, and no sources. They do not give any link to Chris Shaw's study, and the best I found from an internet search was a biased source conducting an interview with him, that provided no information at all. Obviously, high doses of aluminum and mercury are dangerous, but vaccine manufacturers use aluminum in very low doses, following standards set by the World Health Organization, and mercury is being phased out only as a precautionary measure, as it was used safely for 100 years in vaccines. 5. Vaccines affect everyone differently. However the vaccine industry acts as of it is a one size fits all matter, as if all people will react to vaccines the same way. Children who get autism from vaccines are more allergic than children who don't get autism from it.The amount of people who have had negative side effects is very small, and they are isolated cases, which have proven no link between vaccines and diseases. My opponent says children who get autism from vaccines are more allergic than children who don't, and she doesn't provide any sources, again. This point is invalid until there is a legitimate source provided.4. It is common knowledge that mercury and aluminum cause brain damage and yes autism. Both mercury and aluminum are found inside of vaccines. It was in July of 1999 that the American association of pediatrics and vaccine manufacturers made a statement saying that Mercury should be lessened of eliminated from vaccines. The amount of mercury put in vaccines was reduced but not eliminated.My opponent keeps saying the same thing over and over again. And, as I said before, the lessening of mercury from vaccines is just a precautionary measure, because the low doses haven't been linked to any diseases for many years.5. In the film "a greater good" a little boy named Jordan king is featured. Jordan was a happy healthy baby. Than he was vaccinated. His family noticed that he became more irritable, began to walk on his toes and that he would jump up and down and flap his hands when excited but in a strange way. He also became unable to speak. John Green Jordan's doctor tested him for mercury and found that Jordan had very high levels of mercury. His parents tested the pant in their house, the saw dust in the basement but found no mercury. It is undeniable that the mercury had come from the vaccines he was given. Jordan along with 5,600 other people in the omnibius autism proceedings that examined the link between vaccine snake autism in 2001My opponent provides no sources for this story again, it's just a film. My opponent doesn't even provide a link to John Green's research, or Jordan's case. Until there is a valid source for this, this is an invalid point.6.!Many vaccine Injuries have resulted in law suits. One such case includes graham vs Wyeth lab and resulted in 15 million dollars being payed to the Grahams to make up for a severe vaccine injury. Than there's Johnson vs american cynamind ended up resulting in the Johnson's winning 18 million dollars. 7. There are so many vaccine injuries that a program called the vaccine compensation program fund was set up. Every time you receive a vaccine you pay a 75 cent tax that will go to a family who has been affected by a vaccine injury.My opponent again, provides no sources, not for the case, or for the tax. But of course there's a vaccine compensation program, because there will always be isolated cases in which a person is harmed, but these cases aren't solid evidence of a link between vaccines and diseases.For point 8, my opponent references that film, and again, provides no sources. This is another isolated case, and is no solid evidence for vaccines.10. The full study was out one the translational nuerodegeneration site and is called "mmr vaccine timing and autism in young African American boys reanalysis of cdc study". This study was retracted in 2014 [3.] It obviously had major flaws in the research, which is why it was retracted. So this point is invalid. ConclusionMy opponent provided NO SOURCES to prove any of her points. Instead, she referenced isolated cases, and one study that was later retracted. Isolated cases cannot be counted as solid evidence. And the one study was retracted, which shows there was major problems in the research against vaccines. http://www.webmd.com... http://www.cdc.gov... http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
