In this episode of The Unfiltered MD, Dr. Terry Simpson breaks down the CDC’s stunning new claim that the statement “vaccines do not cause autism” is not evidence-based — a position that contradicts decades of science. Dr. Simpson explains how this shift follows the same six-step pattern used by con artists everywhere: undermine experts, speak in absolutes, weaponize jargon, oversimplify complex conditions, sell narratives, and reject proven public health. This is not a bureaucratic mistake — it’s a dangerous break with scientific reality, and it fuels a growing ecosystem of detox kits, unvalidated lab tests, anti-vaccine supplements, and fear-based marketing.
Dr. Simpson exposes the psychology, the tactics, and the commercial interests behind this new messaging — and why understanding the con-man playbook is now essential for anyone who cares about evidence and public health.
