Does the mmr vaccine cause autism?
MMR vaccines, as well as other vaccines, do not cause autism. Extensive research has been done into the relationship between autism and vaccines and none has been found. The doctor who originally reported a correlation has since retracted his statements, admitted his results were faked, and lost his medical license.
What research has been done on the connection between mumps vaccine and autism?
The current status of the MMR/Autism link is disputed. New beliefs are appearing that bufotenin may be responsible for autism. At the moment, there is little evidence to show that MMR may be linked with autism.More recently, several clinical studies have show no statistical link between any vaccine and the incidence of autism. The MMR does not cause, nor is a contributing factor to, autism.In addition, the bufotenin theory is at this point, just a theory. It is based on the higher-than-normal levels of bufotenin detected in some autistic people, but this has not been thoroughly studied, nor has it been shown this is prevalent in the general autistic population. As of now, we really don't know much about autism, certainly nothing definitive about causes or the mechanisms by which it works.

What has recently been done to help the cause of autism?
Not nearly enough There could be a lot more. At this stage ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) is the only proven therapy for kids with Autism. However, the earlier you begin with the child, the better the prognosis. * ABA is considered to be potentially abusive - training a child to behave against their nature and using manipulation to do so is cruel, potentially triggering meltdown and regression, an Autistic child should not be forced to try to be a neurotypical child. See accounts from adults who experienced ABA.

Is there currently research being done with autism using animals?
There is currently no known research on autistic animals. Interesting someone would ask this. The latest medical research on autism leans towards an environmental cause. The medical community is just now beginning to realize that autism, diabetes, parkinson's and alzheimer's are probably related. Research on autism... Please search this site for the question, "Can diabetes be caused by gasoline in drinking water"? That answer pertains to autism as well! You will know the truth when you read it, just read it, and you will KNOW! This author predicts that statistical analysis, NOT medical research, will determine the cause!
