@sheepshearer123 @ekverstania @JeromeAdamsMD @LLynneIrwin I'm not vaccinated and I'm very curious as to why "Are you vaccinated?" is the answer to the question.

@EdwardTedC @ekverstania @MikaelaHobart @auticulate @soundcube Maybe you want to give that key detail about which scientists you're talking about who you feel espouse the ideas you think are worth following.

Here's what it sounds like when you live with a wealth of delusion about how easy it is for the average person to get an autism diagnosis,
