Well, it’s common to hear that the autism-vaccination relationship has been studied into the ground. I think many parents would assume that means there are double-blind placebo-controlled longitudinal studies. Suppose a parent whose child develops autism goes to consult those studies, is surprised to learn that they don’t exist, and concludes that she won’t vaccinate her next child unless such studies are performed. You can argue that that parent is wrong, perhaps because she’s demanding a too costly or even unethical study design, but[b] I don’t really see any defect in erudition accounting for the parent’s perspective[/b].

Erudition is the quality of having or showing great knowledge or learning. How would this woman thinking that the appropriate way to study the autism-vaccination relationship is a series of double-blind placebo-controlled longitudinal studies show great knowledge or learning?[/quote]
