When people say ‘different methodology’, I’m always curious what that actually changed. If the underlying groups aren’t comparable, does reanalyzing the same data fix that?

They above used a different methodology on the same data. With the number of vaccines children are now exposed to, more of these vaccinated vs non-vaccinated children studies need to be done.



Lol. This is amazing. This journal is the who's who of anti-vaccine morons. My god, the things you idiots believe.

The source alone is questionable. Why you guys believe it so thoroughly is some other issue.

Not sure why people would downvote this. The presenter goes over good, hard data. It doesn't claim unvaccinated had zero health problems. It goes over the health issues they saw in kids from both groups.



Because it is very fricking stupid and is the same laundering of anti-vaccine views as every other 'study.'

I'd like to see the info/study as it was presented to whomever is funding/doing this "documentary" and compare it to the study that was submitted to Henry Ford. Not the word of the researchers, but the actual data presented in both instances. That would tell the full story.


I like that instinct. In practice, the fastest way to sanity-check these is a few questions - were the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups comparable to start with, was follow-up similar, and were outcomes defined the same way? If any of those are off, different "analyses" of the same data can point in totally different directions.

A lot of this seems driven by people trying to make sense of conflicting claims and not wanting to get it wrong. I wish more of the discussion focused on what actually makes a comparison reliable vs. misleading, because that’s where these things usually fall apart.

What did you learn from that study, Sally?

I'm not playing with you today... busy in the Swalwell stuff and other threads.

I think you answered your own question above with your second quote.

That’s what I was getting at when I posted a link to a separate analysis. In the second study, they did find similar results as the first, but even more unfavorable to the vaccinated group.

Now Crazy admonishes any study whose data doesn’t favor the vaccinated group as anti-vax and propagated by those groups. It’s almost as if he’s never championed any studies that are pro-vaccine. It’s perfectly fine to have different opinions without being derogatory.

I haven’t really found any decent studies on vax vs no vax that didn’t have pro or anti-vaccine biases. Until such legitimate studies are done without any biases, there will never be an agreed upon answer. I truly hope such studies are forth coming.

They listed a few specific flaws - like the groups not being comparable. If those are real issues, the results get hard to interpret. If not, then it’d be worth digging into why they’re being dismissed.


I wonder if these "flaws" would be as important if the results of the study had been different.

Well I don't really wonder, I know.

Buddy, you want me to clear my schedule so I can teach you immunology?

I think the instinct to want cleaner studies is right. At the same time, I’ve noticed that when the underlying groups differ a lot, the question becomes less "which analysis is right" and more "what are all the analyses picking up on that isn’t actually vaccination."

How do you usually think about that - do those kinds of flaws matter regardless of which way the results go?

Not necessary. If I want to learn more about immunology, I’ll find someone who actually is qualified. Besides, I’m sure your schedule has been cleared since 8:30 this morning.

He knows a lot of immunology. You'll find it in his post history.

If you’re pro-vax, they’re flaws, and if you’re anti-vax, they’re strengths.

That may be true, but he shouldn't be acting like a prick to people trying to educate themselves. I would hate to have a doctor like this. A good doctor appreciates a studious patient

He can be blunt, but he does tend to focus on the underlying mechanisms. I think our friend would find it worth engaging him on that rather than the labels.
