I actually went on a facebook group where they encouraged anti-vacination discussion. It quickly devolves into anecdotes from parents who describe things like their unvaccinated child not getting sick much, or how their first child was vaccinated and completely changed into a different child, but their second child is perfect without vaccines. The science is pretty-fucking-clear on vaccinations that have been approved for use by the general public. There is no debate, there is no autism link, your kids won't die from a state-run vacination programme. Any "debate" is just conspiracy theories being bounced around by people who want to feel bigger than their doctor / nurse / scientists / other people.

How is it "pretty fucking clear" when you have real people contradicting what you say is clear. I personally know people who have regressed after being vaccinated. Autism is a label slapped on a whole host of conditions that likely have different etiology and obviously different presentation of symptoms. But there are definite cases of healthy, speaking children regressing to a non-verbal state after being vaccinated. You found some of them on Facebook yourself. I'll leave you with the CDC's factsheet on MMR: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/vis/vis-statements/mmr.pdf https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/vis/vis-statements/mmr.pdf Please read the "Severe events occur very rarely": * Deafness * Long-term seizures, coma, or lowered consciousness * Brain damage So whatever "very rarely" means, you can be sure you will see lots of cases when you vaccinate 4 million babies every year in the U.S.
