+Allow multiple statements in one query. While this allows batch queries, it can also greatly increase the damage an SQL injection can do (e.g. by adding `; drop database mysql`). Only the result of the first query is returned, all other results are silently discarded.
 
 When `multiStatements` is used, `?` parameters must only be used in the first statement.
