That theory was debunked as it was only based on one Dr Wakefield. There was a false association because the jab was scheduled around the time autism would be diagnosed. My son was autistic before he had that vaccine.

"Wakefield published a now-infamous & retracted paper in The Lancet & in 2010 was struck off the UK medical register for misconduct"

There never was an argument. It's all made-up bullshit that can be traced back to one single fraudulent asshole.

I was asked countless times if I thought that my children's autism was caused by vaccines I always replied " no but their grandmother's polio was caused by the lack of a vaccine.."
