that vaccines are a major cause of autism. Despite the fact that large amounts of research have been done to disprove this belief, the belief still persists. The research done in this paper were obtained by searching many science databases. These studies consist of experiments and result analysis. The studies included surveys, examination of health databases, and medical examinations. The experiments proved that vaccines do not have a causal relationship with autism. This is shown by multiple points
side, those who oppose vaccinations do so for a variety of reasons, but most of all they do so because they think vaccines are dangerous or ineffective. Many of the opposed defend their anti-vaccination position by citing studies linking vaccines to autism and other debilitating side effects, or by voicing concerns over vaccines containing unsafe ingredients that may harm vaccinated children. Also questioned is the effectiveness of vaccines, if they are even needed, or even why vaccinating matters if
the population to be vaccinated is based on evidence. I will use scientific evidence to dispel rumors and conspiracy theories regarding vaccine safety. Jolley and Douglas (2017)

Why Vaccines DON’T Cause Autism. Right off the bat let me ask you this, would you rather have your child have mild social interaction problems or have them die of whooping cough or measles? The choice is obvious to many, but not so easy for a few. Many parents or to-be parents have the misconception that vaccines, (which give someone immunity to a certain disease), cause autism. How did this misconception start? A man by the name of Andrew Wakefield made up a study in the sunday times that somehow
increased thirty years thanks to vaccines. However, there have been several arguments about the vaccine between parents and physicians for as long as the vaccine has existed. There have been various conspiracies that have been researched online. The most argued theory is: “The MMR shot is a cause of Autism”. Even though doctors have backed up that this statement is not true with medical evidence, parents seem to still go against their physician’s advice and don’t get their children vaccinated. The decision
Vaccines do not cause autism, it is as simple as that. Autism is a genetic disorder caused by problems with the wiring of the brain and getting a shot of a weakened, nearly dead virus in saline is not going to cause your brain to rewire itself. Likewise, abstaining from receiving vaccinations or worse yet, not getting your children vaccinated, is putting not only them at risk, but the health of the entire western world. In 1998, a British gastroenterologist named Andrew Wakefield published a research
actual disease. The severe risks of MMR seizure, temporary pain or stiffness in joints, and temporary low platelet count affect less than 4%. The Dtap vaccine was accused of causing Barbara Fisher’s son to develop autism. The most common conspiracy it is known for is causing autism in children. This however isn’t true according to the British Medical Journal Lancet children vaccinated or unvaccinated have the same risk of developing
this has been the connection of autism and vaccines.Vaccines were invented by Edward Jenner, it all started when he transmitted anti genetics into a 13 year old’s body who had small pox. This test was successful the first time and therefore he re-tested the experiment and found out that this is a cure for cowpox. This test was also attempted in by the CDC in which they attempted and cured a sickness but in the process created autism. Autism or also known as autism spectrum disorder is a range of
the minds of those who were not interested enough to take a side on an issue, and this has caused a large increase in the amount of people who still believe in unlikely conspiracies or hoaxes. This has caused a large uproar and scepticism of the government, and with more evidence proving the governments secrecy, and conspiracy theories coming true, the citizens of countries are getting more paranoid of their own country and others around the world. There is a lack of trust from citizens toward their
