Scientific fact: there is no connection between vaccination and autism.
Vaccines do not have the ability to time-travel to change a persons genes or development in the womb, thus they cannot cause autism. An Autistic person is born autistic.

Why is it misleading to describe science as a collection of facts?
because science is ultimately not just facts. science is about finding explanation for facts.
What is the state of knowing facts about the world and testing those facts through the scientific method?
science A+
Can a science conclusion be based on an opinion?
Science conclusions need to be made based off of facts.
What are facts that disprove evolution?
No facts currently known to science contradict the fundamental theses of evolutionary theory.
What activities can be done in a science club?
A science exhibition.... science fair... or quiz based on science facts... also u can conduct a exhibition on medicinal plants....
How kids have gotten autism from vaccines?
They haven't. It turned out that the medical study linking autism to vaccines was a hoax!!! The doctor responsible lost his medical license. The medical community has rejected that study, and doesn't believe autism is linked to vaccines.
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.
When was Autism Science Foundation created?
Autism Science Foundation was created in 2009.
What are the release dates for Truth or Scare - 2013 Do Vaccines Cause Autism 2-5?
Truth or Scare - 2013 Do Vaccines Cause Autism 2-5 was released on: USA: 21 September 2013
Are people scared of vaccines?
Yes. Many people are afraid of vaccines because they believe largely untrue claims that they cause autism and other compilcations.
What are the risks of getting mmr?
Common risks associated with vaccines such as swelling, fever and irritation. But NOT AUTISM.
Why do people think autism and MMR are linked?
Simply, because people are ignorant.The idea that Autism and MMR were linked was a fraud that was debunked years ago, furthermore common sense tells us that this isn't possible as Autism is neurological so a person is born Autistic - vaccines cannot change a persons development in the womb or their parents genes. Anti-vaxxers are like religious fundamentalists, they have their beliefs and refuse to listen to science.
Can you get autism or asperger from vaccination shots?
The child will not get autism from an MMR vaccination. Countries with different vaccination ingredients or different vaccination schedules have increasing rates of autism, too. Research indicates that the MMR vaccination does not cause autism. Videos and descriptions of the children thought to have had autism triggered by the thimerosal-containing MMR vaccines show that they had symptoms of autism prior to the vaccination. Autism is a genetic condition that, in most cases, is assumed to have an environmental trigger in the womb or early infancy. There is the possibility that a very small portion of the people with autism have the condition triggered by a vaccination, but that number is statistically insignificant, so it is too small to be detected in scientific studies. But there is that possibility with other events, too, such as feeding your baby processed baby food or breastfeeding for less than 2 years or eating peanuts while pregnant or any other events that are not associated with autism. Hypothetically, if a child were to have autism triggered by a vaccination, it could be because of the ingredients of the vaccination, the child's stress at receiving a vaccination, the body's immune response being triggered, or some other factor involved in the process of getting a vaccination. Another potential cause for concern is the fact that human DNA is in some of the MMR vaccines. It has not been scientifically proven nor disproven but the dates match up according to what I've read. I would love to know where autism is on the rise and vaccines are not available as someone wrote previously. I wasn't aware of that.
What shots cause autism for infants?
No, shots cannot cause autism - this is impossible.Autism is a neurological difference that is a result of genetics, it starts when the brain starts to develop within the womb during the second trimester. Vaccines cannot travel back in time to change a persons genes or development in the womb, nor can they change a persons entire brain structure in an infant. The idea that vaccines cause autism is a very outdated a debunked myth.
What category of genetic disorder is autism in?
If anything, autism is neurogenetic, but no one knows whether or not, autism is based on a faulty gene. Most theories about causes of the ailment are about environmental factors; particularly vaccines (which contain mercury a highly neurotoxic element). Despite "Rett Syndrome" (which isn't a true form of autism), it doesn't characterize any visible mutations of the body. It could be that the way someone's genes are built and organized, can make the person prone do neurological damage from vaccines or other toxins.
Does the mmr jab cause autism?
Most definitively NO. The MMR vaccine (and, all other vaccines) have absolutely NOTHING TO DO WITH AUTISM. There have been repeated clinical studies, and absolutely no tie between the MMR vaccine and any incidence of autism has been discovered. The scare was caused by bad science and desperate parents, looking for something to blame, and a news media looking for the latest sensational cause. There never was any credible reason to assume there was a tie between MMR and autism, let alone scientific evidence.
Do many people still think that autism may be caused by vaccines?
Yes - unfortunately there are still many MANY such idiots in the world.
