If vaccines cause autism, we may finally get to the bottom of it.

From The Washington Post:

President-elect Donald Trump asked Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a proponent of a widely discredited theory that vaccines cause autism, to chair a new commission on vaccine safety and scientific integrity, Kennedy said Tuesday.

The stunning move pushes up against established science, medicine and the government’s position on the issue. It comes after Trump — who has long been critical of vaccines — met at Trump Tower with Kennedy, who has spearheaded efforts to roll back child vaccination laws.

Trump transition officials did not respond to requests for comment on the commission.

Speaking to reporters Tuesday in the lobby of Trump Tower in New York, Kennedy said Trump called him to request the meeting and that he accepted the position on the new commission. It was not immediately clear exactly what role the commission would play.

“President-elect Trump has some doubts about the current vaccine policies, and he has questions about it,” Kennedy said. “His opinion doesn’t matter, but the science does matter, and we ought to be reading the science, and we ought to be debating the science.”

“And that everybody ought to be able to be assured that the vaccines that we have — he’s very pro-vaccine, as am I — but they’re as safe as they possibly can be,” he added.

The Post goes on to whine about how it's a "dangerous conspiracy theory" to question whether or not you should pump your small children with some 49 shots by the time they're 6 years old.

They insist it's "dangerous to public health."

Of course, these are the same people who actively support bringing in migrants from the Third World with tuberculosis, dengue fever, leprosy and all manners of formerly eradicated diseases.

These are the same people who insist our border with Mexico be wide open so potentially diseased Mexicans and Central Americans can pour in without restriction, even though none of them have taken these vaccines.

If you support open borders, you don't actually give a damn about public health.

This commission is going to be epic.
