Original Note:
The scientific consensus is that there is no direct evidence linking vaccinations to autism. Autism is a complex condition, and its causes likely involve genetic, environmental, and developmental factors. No direct connection between mercury in vaccines and autism. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2376879/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2024/01/26/aluminum-in-vaccines-not-linked-to-autism-fact-check/72355284007/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/10/12/vaccines-rarely-contain-mercury-do-not-cause-autism-fact-check/71126393007/ https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/brain-babble/201701/no-the-mercury-in-vaccines-does-not-cause-autism https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/concerns/thimerosal/index.html
