Quick question: Do Vaccines Cause Autism? If So, Why? If They Do, Why is That Bad?

Just so we’re clear, they don’t cause autism. If they did, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

They have made many good points for decades.

The vaccine itself does not. The mercury in the preservative seems like it does. They have tried it without the mercury but it doesn't last as long, effectively cutting profits.

Just so we’re clear, we don't know what causes it. Vaccines probably don't though.

No they don’t. My son is on the autism spectrum and he was born that way.

This one of the good things about Trump not being bought by big pharmaceutical companies like the congress and doctors , he is more pro choice when it comes to vaccines.

While I know he can be stupid sometimes in this case it's a valid question from a statistics point of view. To use an extreme example. Let's say I found a vaccine that prevented all forms of cancer but in a super small fraction of people it cause brain damage
Is my vaccine a bad thing?
I'm not saying that's the case with the flu vaccine versus autism. I'm merely pointing out that it is something you actually have to answer

Yes if the cancer patient getting the vaccine either doesn't understand the side effects to the vaccine OR the cancer is cured but the patient is a vegetable. So which is worse?
No it's not a bad thing if the cancer is cured and no side effects.....yeah I know duh.

Anti-vax folks think that polio being mostly extinct in first world countries is by accident

Serious question....how was your child diagnosed that early? All of the kids I know were way past the first set of shots. I'm not challenging you, I'm genuinely curious. Was it the auto response to sounds and eye contact? Either way, God bless your family and shake the haters in the grocery stores.

1: They don't

Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope.
Just to clarify...
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
Can't really say much more than this.
