4 stories from Del Bigtree
PostThe Henry Ford Health birth-cohort study was discussed at the September 2025 Senate hearing, became the subject of Del Bigtree’s film “An Inconvenient Study,” and is the data Hulscher later presented to Michigan lawmakers. This paper is the written, citable version of that argument.
Most people will never read a reanalysis. A film reaches them. Bigtree’s documentary is how the Henry Ford study became a household argument, and it is free to watch on The HighWire.
WatchThe film is the Foundation’s central public-outreach vehicle, the piece screening at its launch, and the most widely seen argument for reexamining the 2004 CDC MMR data.
Even inside the movement there is disagreement about tactics and specific vaccines, a reminder that “reform” is not monolithic, and that the MMR debate divides even its most prominent voices.
