What's super crazy is that if it's an autoimmune problem then the idea that vaccines cause autism might actually be right for a very small percentage of the population. If that were to be true (a HUGE if) and we could figure out the precursor markers then we could exempt the folks who need exemption and still keep herd immunity by vaccinating all the folks who wouldn't be harmed.

- SubiculumCode 6y agoAs usual, while scientists cannot prove a negative, in terms of vaccine causing autism in a subset, all I can say that there is no proposed mechanism, nor evidence of that mechanism, for vaccines to cause autism in anyone.
