Autism is a neurological difference, as such you are born autistic and you cannot become autistic. Autism and vaccinations are completely unrelated.

Does autism have a vaccination?

No, there is no vaccination for autism as autism is not a disease, illness, or virus. Autism is a neurological difference, it is how a persons brain forms while they are developing within the womb and once they are born. A person cannot be vaccinated against autism, and no reason to do so anyway.


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 evidence is there that MMR is unlikely to cause autism?

It's not that MMR is unlikely to cause autism, it cannot cause autism full-stop. Autism is a neurological difference so it occurs within the second trimester of pregnancy when the brain is being formed, no vaccination can cause autism. Billions have been wasted on thousands of research projects to prove that there is absolutely no link between autism and vaccinations.


Can adults develop autism?

Some adults might not be diagnosed as having autism until they are adults. Autism is generally believed to have a genetic component, which means a person is born with it. If a person has a mild case of autism or was misdiagnosed, it might not be correctly diagnosed until adulthood.

Is it true that autism is rare in Japan where children are not vacinnated until they are at least two years old?

Autism has nothing to do with vaccination. It is to do with the fact that they are psychedelic beings destined to surpass normal humans. Autism is seemingly rare in Japan anyway, due to the low birth rates and high suicide rates.


What are the science facts about autism and vaccines?

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.
