Original Note:
This is false; the vaccine court has never concluded that vaccines can cause autism. In the case this tweet refers to, the petitioner suffered "a global encephalopathy caused by a mitochondrial enzyme deficit." https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmp0802904 The court later concluded that vaccines do not cause autism. https://quackwatch.org/autism/omnibus/
