CDC Whistleblower: We Covered Up the MMR-Autism Link—“I’m Ashamed of What We Did”

"Thimerosal causes autism-like features."

In a covertly recorded phone conversation, the CDC's Dr. William Thompson confessed that the CDC had lied and covered up the fact that the MMR vaccine was linked to autism.

"I'm completely ashamed of what I did. The higher-ups wanted to do certain things and I went along with it."

"I cannot believe we did what we did. But we did."
