Independent Journalism* from around the world.

Rules:

  1. Posts should link to a current* article from an independent media source. If there's a paywall please put the official link in the URL box and add an archive link in the text body of your post.

  2. Post title should be the article headline or best fit. Please tag if a sign-in is required.

  3. No misinformation or bigotry.

  4. Be civil. Be cool. Instance rules apply.

  5. Tag NSFW at your discretion.

*Independent journalism is generally free from government and corporate interests and is not controlled by a major media conglomerate. Use your best judgement when posting.

*Current depends on whether new, publicly available information has been released since the article has last been updated. When in doubt please add the publication date to the title in a tag [like this.]

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has made a dramatic about-face in the agency's position on the relationship between vaccines and autism.

The CDC's website now says a link between vaccines and autism cannot be ruled out. That's a reversal from the CDC's longstanding stance that there is no link.

The change comes even though a connection between vaccines and autism has long been debunked by a large body of high-quality research. But Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has long promoted the discredited claim.
