Original Note:
Vaccines do not cause autism. The mediatic claims about the link between autism and vaccines come from a study by Wakefield et. al., with a too small sample size and failure to include a control group. The study did not prove that the cause of autism was the MMR vaccine. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3136032/ https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/48/4/456/284219?login=false
