Confirmation Bias

It’s the reason the autism myth about thimerosal just won’t die:

“Hope is a powerful drug,” says Jim Laidler, a Portland scientist and father of two autistic boys who jumped ship from the vaccine conspiracy a few years ago. In reality, autism has no cure, nor even a clearly defined cause. Science takes its time and often provides no definitive answers. That isn’t medicine that’s easy to swallow.

Guess the misguided will just have to wait for gene-altering nanobots or theraputic viruses or something.  Then they can modify the genetics their kids got from them the MMR vaccine.
