Original Note:
The myth that vaccines cause autism originated primarily from a 1998 study by Andrew Wakefield published in The Lancet. However, the study was later discredited, retracted in 2010 due to significant methodological flaws and ethical violations. https://www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org/hometown-health/speaking-of-health/autism-vaccine-link-debunked
