Immunizatons and Autism

Published

I hear a lot about how immunizations for children may cause autism... Is there really any truth to this? I haven't found any research supporting this theory. IF anybody has any info I would like to hear about it.

i have a 4 yr old with autism, and i did see a big change when he received the mmr. im not saying it was due to it but idk..When he was an infant we did see him rock and flap, so we are not sure if the vaccines, woke his autism even more. very confusing and tiring but im not to focused on that. im focused on teaching him how to be independent and how to communicate. he is non verbal.

It is positively unreal that people are still asking this question. This whole "scam" was started by a guy in the UK that wrote a bogus paper and published it in the Lancet. He was paid by a law firm to fudge the findings in their favor.

It is not true.
