1989 is the year the [autism] epidemic began

RFK Jr: According to the EPA, "1989 is the year the [autism] epidemic began."

"And 1989 was the year the vaccine schedule exploded."

"[The CDC] hired a Belgian epidemiologist named Thomas Verstraeten... He looked at children who got the hepatitis B vaccine within their first month of life, and compared those health outcomes... [to] children who got it after 30 days, or didn't get it at all."

"What he found... was a 1135% greater or elevated risk for an autism diagnosis among the kids who'd gotten it in their first 30 days. At that point they knew what caused the autism epidemic... So there was a panic throughout the industry."

"The CDC wanted to do a meeting... and they assembled [72 people] from the WHO, CDC, NIH, FDA, and all the vaccine companies, and all the big academics... They spend the second day talking about how to hide it."
