When it comes to autism and vaccines, people like to say that there's no proof - I don’t even need “proof.” There are THOUSANDS of parents who watched their child regress over night. There’s children who were developing normally or even ahead of schedule, who suddenly didn’t know things they had known for months. There’s parents who live with kids on all ranges of the spectrum that will tell you vaccines changed their child - parents know! Moms don’t lie.
According to the University of Calgary, there’s been an 1148% increase in Autism the last 10 years. Boys are 4-5 times more likely to receive an autism diagnosis than girls.
In April 2018, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a report estimating the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder. The study was based on a 2014 survey of eight-year-old children across 11 residential communities.
The children were born in 2004, studied in 2012 and it took two years to collect and process the data - so it was outdated before it was even published. In 2017, the NCHS published health data for 2014-2016 which pegged the prevalence of autism for children aged 3-17 years at 1 in 36 in 2016, compared to 1 in 43 in 2015 and 1 in 45 in 2014.
In the 1980s, it was 1 in 10,000.
1990: 1 in 500
2000: 1 in 250
2004: 1 in 166
2009: 1 in 110
2016: 1 in 54
2020: 1 in 36
MIT Doctor Stephanie Seneff estimates that 1 in 2 children in the US will have autism by 2025. Her paper links glyphosate to the cause.
As the vaccine schedule grew, so did the number of autism diagnosis. Please see our article about vaccine schedules here.
History of Autism
There is no formal evidence that the condition existed before the 20th century. However, some historical figures, including Thomas Jefferson, Albert Einstein and Michelangelo are believed to have had autistic traits.
Genetics can’t cause an epidemic. Genetic susceptibility can, but you need a toxin.
There are a few studies that “show a possible genetic link.” In a 2011 study, 65 gene variations were discovered in connection to autism, and one study published in 2015 identified another 102 gene mutations associated with ASD.
We know autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that can cause challenging behaviors, developmental delays and communication deficits. In order to receive the diagnosis of “Autism” a child must exhibit a certain number of behaviors and communication deficits over a certain time frame. If he or she does not do so, the diagnosis of “autism” is not warranted.
Autism can’t be confirmed or “ruled-out” by laboratory analysis. There is no blood test, brain scan or any other objective test that can diagnose autism. Clinicians rely on observations of a person’s behavior to diagnose the condition. Therefore, anything that causes physiological damage cannot directly “cause” autism.
Vaccines (and possibly a host of other environmental toxins) cause the underlying physical conditions that result in the pain, neurological damage, immune system disorders, gastrointestinal damage, and yeast overgrowth – all of which combine to produce the behavioral symptoms that result in the “autism” diagnosis.
Because autism is neuro-developmental, it's not going to look the same in adults. In adults, it's neuro-degenerative. You can't stop or inhibit development in a brain that has already developed. Neuro-developmental diseases (like autism) are on the rise in children as neuro-degenerative (like Alzheimer's) diseases are on the rise in the elderly.
Those are the 2 groups that vaccines targeted at first because both ages have a more compromised immune system. Now, diseases in the elderly are being seen in young and middle aged adults. Now, in our adulthood, we are recommended to get yearly flu shots as well as regular boosters for MMR, TDaP, and whatever else they can scare you into.
Adults don't get autism in the same way that infants don't get Alzheimer's. Both are brain damage, but at different stages of development, you get different symptoms.
Wakefield actually published a "paper". Scientific papers are designed to answer a simple question. In this case the question was; do children with regressive autism have chronic enterocolitis? You can read it here.
The data in question was the pathology reports that showed gastrointestinal disease. Wakefield was not in charge of evaluating the pathology reports in this paper that was the charge of Dr. John O' Leary an independent Dublin pathologist. Dr. O'Leary stands by his reports, and they are not challenged by the UK's General Medical Council (GMC).
The UK General Medical Council charged Wakefield with serious professional misconduct and sanction, Wakefield was found guilty by the GMC (General Medical Council, pg. 7 & 9).
Professor Walker-Smith was also charged with and found guilty of serious professional misconduct and sanction, just as Wakefield. The description of the charges were similar with one variation being the monies given to Wakefield via the Legal Aid Board (LAB). On appeal all of the GMC's rulings toward Walker-Smith were overturned. The UK High Court's Mr. Justice Mitting criticized the U.K. General Medical Council, stating its judgment had been "based on inadequate and superficial reasoning" (High Court Of Justice, 2010).
The claims of the BMC were deemed false to which they did not appeal this decision. Professor Murch's official charges were also serious professional misconduct and sanction. He was found guilty of professional misconduct but not of sanction.
On 9 November, David Lewis of the National Whistleblower's Center in Washington DC published a letter in the BMJ (http://bmj.com/) arguing that Wakefield did not commit research fraud.
This comment typically refers to the clinical investigations carried out by Walker-Smith, which included colonoscopies, barium studies, and lumbar punctures (LP). On appeal this charge by the General Medical Council as being "not clinically indicated" (pg. 4) was overturned by the U.K.'s High Court Of Justice (High Court Of Justice, 2010).
His co-author, John Walker-Smith, was exonerated because his insurance paid for the case. Wakefield's did not but he has filed defamation charges and it's looking positive. Also why would he bring out a movie and more studies if he was lying? That seriously hurt his career but he cares more about the truth for the children.
The CDC states on their website that the autism rates are NOT just a result of better recognition and diagnosing. There is no way we missed 1 out of every 36 kids with an autism diagnosis. Yes, we are better at diagnosing it now, because it is now so prevalent.
Look at the graphs of the increase over time of autism and those of increase of vaccination. They match.
The attached graph shows that better diagnosis does not explain all the increase. See our article on vaccine schedules here.
If more people were being detected, the numbers diagnosed would have gone up all the time, but the graph shows a dip.
After “realizing” the amount of mercury in the childhood vaccination schedule recommended by the CDC exceeded all national and global maximum safety limits, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the United States Public Health Service called for the immediate removal of Thimerosal from all vaccines on July 7, 1999.
By 2003, the vaccine manufacturers had begun to react to the 1999 call by lowering the mercury content in many of the Thimerosal-preserved early childhood vaccines. However, in April of 2002, the CDC began recommending that pregnant women and very young children get annual Thimerosal-perserved flu shots. The result was a ‘shell game’ which has caused widespread confusion in the public because of press reports declaring, “Since (select a year between 1999 and the present), mercury has been removed from all recommended vaccines for children except for some flu shots.”
Astoundingly, the total level of mercury exposure, if a child receives all the possible CDC-recommended vaccinations that are still Thimerosal preserved, from 6 months to 18 years of age, has actually INCREASED. Significantly, if you put the amount of mercury added to the immunization schedule as a result of the CDC-recommended seasonal and (in 2009) H1N1 flu shots on one side of a scale, and the amount of mercury that was subtracted from that schedule by reformulating early childhood vaccines without Thimerosal on the other side, the total amount of mercury added far outweighs the amount of mercury subtracted. In addition, today most tetanus shots and the multi-dose Sanofi Menomune® vaccine that are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) still contain 25-micrograms-a-dose mercury. Infants receiving a Thimerosal-containing influenza vaccine are dosed at 6 months with 12.5 mcg of ethyl mercury and at 7 months with an additional 12.5 mcg. Adult Thimerosal-containing vaccines contain roughly 25mcg.
Currently, the actions taken by the vaccine manufacturers, the FDA and the CDC have increased the possible maximum childhood exposure to mercury from vaccines to twice the level that triggered the 1999 call to remove mercury from all vaccines as soon as possible! Also, new vaccine formulations with 25 micrograms of mercury per 0.5-mL dose are still being approved by the FDA for administration to pregnant women and children. (From Trace Amount.

Dr. Thompson is a CDC whistle blower who came forward and admitted that the CDC had omitted and destroyed evidence in their final report which revealed a causal relationship between the MMR vaccine and autism, particularly in black boys. You can read the evidene in full at: The CDC Autism/MMR Files Released By Dr. William Thompson.
A few articles:
Here is a quote from biologist Dr. Brian Hooker, which you can read in full in this PDF download.
When the CDC team responsible for the paper by Destefano et al. originally completed the analysis regarding MMR timing and autism in black male children, an odds ratio of 2.56 was obtained when comparing those children receiving the MMR vaccine before 36 months of age with those who didn’t receive MMR until after 36 months of age. This result was statistically significant, with a p-value less than 0.01. This result alarmed Dr. Thompson’s co-authors on the paper, especially those who were in leadership positions at CDC.In order to dilute this association, Dr. Thompson was asked to eliminate any children in the sample who did not possess a valid State of Georgia birth certificate. This eliminated children living in the Atlanta area but not born in Georgia—about 40 percent of the sample. When this was done, the odds ratio was reduced to 1.68 but more importantly, statistical significance was obviated (i.e., p > 0.05). In the final paper, only the result for the “birth certificate” sampling was reported. In addition, according to Dr. Thompson, all data showing the original effect for African-Americans were destroyed in the September 2002 meeting, despite the fact that the original analysis plan for the study explicitly stated: “The only variable available to be assessed as a potential confounder using the entire sample is child’s race.” DeStefano et al. deviated from the original analysis plan, expressly to avoid reporting the statistically significant finding.”
The VAXXED movie is a documentary created to expose this.
Yes, vaccines can cause autism. This is an absolutely unavoidable reality, if you are open-minded enough to consider the studies and clinical data from the last 30 years. The CDC claims vaccines do not cause autism, but the data they publish does not support this claim. As Dr. Richard Kelley, one of the foremost experts on autism says, he disagrees with the CDC claims about the vaccine-autism link, but does not disagree with the CDC data.
Please understand this one concept, if you understand nothing else about vaccines and autism. The only vaccine that has been studied for a link to autism, is MMR; the only vaccine ingredient that has been studied for a link to autism is thimerasol. It is not true that vaccines and autism have been studied. Only about 4.1% of the vaccines/ingredients in the CDC schedule have been studied.
THE SCIENTIFIC BASIS THAT VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM
There are 11 scientific discoveries that make the link clear between vaccines and an autism diagnoses. They have all been published in peer-reviewed journals by scientists across disciplines.
1. Discovery #1: In 2004 Dr. Carlos Pardo-Villamizar at Johns Hopkins University discovers that autism brains are permanently inflamed.
· The study is titled “Neuroglial Activation and Neruoinflammation in the Brain of Parients with Autism.”[1]
· It was the first time the brains of people with autism were looked at.
· We learn that autism brains have an immune system in a permanent, active state. We also learn that certain cytokines are highly elevated. They are biomarkers for inflammation.
· They were the first to study microglial activation in the brains of children with autism, and this has been replicated in several other studies.
2. Discovery #2: In 2005 Dr. Paul Patterson at the California Institute of Technology discovers that immune activation events lead to autism.
· The paper is titled “Pregnancy, Immunity, Schizophrenia, and Autism.”[2]
· If a pregnant woman becomes sick while pregnant—an event that activates her immune system—that activation can impact the neurodevelopment of the fetus, potentially leading to neurological problems after birth.
· Dr. Patterson tied the immune system and the brain together in ways not previously understood.
· His work was replicated many times. In 2012, he produced a paper titled, “Maternal Immune Activation Yields Offspring Displaying Mouse Versions of the Three Core Symptoms of Autism.”[3]This work was replicated in monkeys in 2014.[4]
3. Discovery #3: Dr. Paul Patterson discovered that the cytokine interleukin-6 is the key biomarker for immune activation.
· Maternal Immune Activation was producing offspring with neurological disorders (in the mouse model) and they wanted to find out exactly what was causing the altered brain development. The theorized it was a cytokine, but hadn’t figured out which one. They injected interleukin-6 and observed the same changes in the offspring.
· Dr. Patterson produced more evidence in 2012 in a study titled, “Brain IL-6 Elevation Causes Neuronal Circuitry Imbalances and Mediates Autism-Like Behaviors.”[5]
· These, along with other studies, proved that when IL-6 level is elevated, we know that immune activation is present.
4. Discovery #4: In January 2018, a study discovered that Immune activation can take place after birth.
· Dr. Patterson had never bridged the gap between a child in gestation and a child during infancy. If immune activation events after birth could also trigger the development of autism, then something besides the mother would have to trigger the immune activation.
· A 2018 study from McLean Hospital shows that these events can happen after birth.[6]
5. Discovery #5: In 2009, Dr. Christopher Shaw discovered that aluminum adjuvant in vaccines produces behavior and motor function deficits.
· They were examining the potential toxicity of aluminum hydroxide in male, outbred CD-1 mice injected subcutaneously in two equivalent-to-human doses.[7]
· They quickly discovered that behavioral symptoms emerged shortly after injecting the aluminum. This manifest not only in behavior, but in motor functions and cognitive deficits. They found massive damage to motor neurons after they dissected the mice.
6. Discovery #6: In 2013, Drs. Romain Gherardi and Josette Cadusseau discovered that aluminum adjuvant in vaccines, injected into the body, can be carried to the brain by macrophages.
· The study was titled, “Slow CCL2-Dependent Translocation of Biopersistent Particles from Muscle to Brain.”[8]
· When aluminum adjuvant enters the body, it’s not recognized by the body because it is foreign. The macrophages grab it, but they don’t have the means to eliminate it, so they carry it, and bring it to soft tissue places in the body, like the brain. When encounted by the brain, it triggers an immune activation.
7. Discovery #7: In 2015, the same doctors discovered that aluminum adjuvant stays in the brain much longer than anyone realized.
· The study is titled, “Biopersistence and brain translocation of aluminum adjuvants of vaccines.”[9]
· They discovered that the biopersistence of the adjuvant means it stays in our brains a long time, and potentially produces an ongoing activation event.
8. Discovery #8: In 2016, a study discovered that small doses of aluminum adjuvant are actually more dangerous than large doses.
· The study is titled, “Non-linear dose-response of aluminium hydroxide adjuvant particles: Selective low dose neurotoxicity.”[10]
· They disputed the FDA and CDC thinking about aluminum, saying that they were comparing other “non-relevant” aluminum exposures to injected aluminum adjuvant.
9. Discovery #9: In 2015, a study[11]discovered that aluminum causes immune activation in the brain.
· This study showed that aluminum triggers an elevated level of IL-6 in the brain, which is a biomarker for an immune activation event. Therefore, aluminum itself can cause an activation event in the brain.
10. Discovery #10: In 2016, a Chinese study discovered that Hepatitis B vaccine induces Interleukin-6 in postnatal rats.
· The studies are titled, “Neonatal vaccination with bacillus Calmette–Guérin and hepatitis B vaccines modulates hippocampal synaptic plasticity in rats”[12]And “Neonatal hepatitis B vaccination impaired the behavior and neurogenesis of mice transiently in early adulthood.”[13]
· This study demonstrates that vaccines can affect brain development via immune activation. The Hep B vaccine was shown to increase IL-6 in the hippocampus (the only brain region analyzed for cytokines).
· An important find was that many of the effects of the Hep B vaccine did not appear until 8 weeks. Since most vaccine studies do not observe nearly that far out, this is significant.
· They replicated their work again in 2016, focusing just on the biological effects of Hep B and confirmed their findings.
11. Discovery #11: In 2017, Dr. Christopher Exley discovered that high levels of aluminum are uniquely located in brain tissue of people with autism.
· The study is titled, “Aluminium in brain tissue in autism.”[14]
· They looked at the brain tissue of subjects with autism to measure aluminum for the first time.
· They found “shockingly high” amounts of aluminum in their brains. They found a high amount of monocytes at the injection site, and one kind of monocyte is a macrophage. He believes these macrophages are transporting the aluminum to the brain.
· Dr. Exley believes that they proved “that aluminum adjuvant could be transported to the brain from a vaccine injection site.”
To summarize these studies in a four-step process:
1) Aluminum adjuvant injection
2) Aluminum adjuvant particles travel to the brain
3) IL-6 production and microglial activation in the brain
4) Autism

It hasn’t been studied whether vaccines cause autism or not. There are many studies that claim to do this, but upon inspection you will find that no inert placebo was used. In every case (of the dozens of studies we’ve looked at), the placebo used was another vaccine or some amount of adjuvant. For example, this highly publicized Denmark study from 2019 claims that MMR and autism have no link (https://www.aappublications.org/news/2019/03/05/mmrautism030519). The study compared children who got vaccines with children who got vaccines, minus the MMR. The “rest of the vaccines” is not an inert placebo as many of those vaccines share the same adjuvants with the MMR. The debate surrounds the effects of the adjuvants and not the effects of the antigens.
The only vaccine that has been studied for a link to autism, is MMR; the only vaccine ingredient that has been studied for a link to autism is thimerosal. It is not true that vaccines and autism have been studied. Only about 4.1% of the vaccines/ingredients in the CDC schedule have been studied.
