Confirmed: No Link Between Autism and Measles Vaccine, Even for 'At Risk' Kids
Live Science ^ | 3/4/2019 | Laura Geggel

Posted on 03/05/2019 9:22:24 AM PST by Gamecock

Children who receive the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine are not at increased risk for autism, and that includes children who are sometimes considered to be in "high risk" groups for the neurodevelopmental disorder, a massive new study finds.

The new study, published today (March 4) in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, is one of the largest studies of its kind to date. In it, researchers looked at the records of more than 657,000 children born in Denmark between 1999 and 2010, including about 6,500 who had received an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis. ASD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects a person's ability to communicate, interact and behave appropriately with others in social situations.

The study shows, as many before it have time and again, that "[caregivers] shouldn't choose to not vaccinate because of this punitive association between the MMR [vaccine] and autism," said study principal investigator Anders Hviid, a senior researcher in the Department of Epidemiology Research at Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen. "There's really strong science that there is no association." [Beyond Vaccines: 5 Things That Might Really Cause Autism]

"Irrespective of the absolute costs, the opportunity cost of this research should be kept in mind: For example, continuing to evaluate the MMR-autism hypothesis might come at the expense of not pursuing some of the more promising leads" related to autism's causes and treatments, Omer wrote in the editorial.

I’m sorry, but my level of trust in these people has broken down to the point that I can’t rely on that as being true.

Agree 100%.

Where's actual scientific study on the effects of pumping Thimerosal, Aluminum, Formaldehyde, Human fetal cells, Cancerous tumor cells, Monkey kidneys, Fetal cow serum, Mouse brain and Chicken embryos into children?

So they don't know what causes autism, but they do know what doesn't cause it.

C'mon man.

the version of the MMR they studied is cultured using rabbits,
the version they use un the US uses aborted fetal tissue...

So study is null and void.

I never had much of an opinion about this issue, but when I see this was written by liberal kook Laura geggel, who writes dozens of articles warning us about global warming, then I makes me very concerned that the exact opposite is true.

I know an elderly lady whose husband was paralyzed by the polio vaccine.

Every time I see her before and after pics, I get so sad.

They had 3 children and the youngest was two when it happened.

He didn’t wallow in it though. She loved him dearly. They stay married and he had a full life. She went back to school to be a nurse and he became quite the cook.

Hell, they didn’t even sue.

Before the MMR vaccine in the 60s children were intentionally exposed to those diseases in addition to Chicken Pox.

Combined, those diseases took about 500-700 people per year in the US.

The 2016-1017 Flu took 80,000 lives in the US.

Yet the nanny-staters insist everyone...everyone...must receive the MMR vaccine to prevent a general pandemic.

Because most of them are either stupid, or completely ignorant of the facts.

The rest have a vested interest.

I see they didn’t test the new 6 in 1 vaccine.

“Confirmed: No Link Between Autism and Measles Vaccine, Even for ‘At Risk’ Kids”

Yup. The debate is over, the science is settled, and there’s a consensus of leftists who inexplicably support multinational pharmaceutical corporations so long as they call their products ‘vaccines’.

Not me.

My kids had mercury free, latex free, and peanut oil free vaccinations and none of them have had the MMR. Instead they get immunized for measles, mumps, and rubella separately.

And all eight of my kids are doing fine.

Oh, and the vaccines generally work.

So if you don’t want your kids to get measles or mumps, get them vaccinated and mind your own business.

Perhaps if science had not prostituted itself to sell the myth of global warming I might view it differently.

I’ll say it again so that it will sink into a few...

The 2016-1017 Flu took 80,000 lives in the US.

There are reports of vaccines causing Guillain-Barre.

More people got paralysis from polio than from the vaccine.

BTW, more people get Guillain-Barre from the flu than from the flu vaccine.

The bottom line is always.

Any medicine (anything really!) is not 100% safe.

For any vaccine (medicine!) there will be some percentage it works great (hopefully very high!), some percentage it does essentially nothing for them (hopefully very low!), some percentage it will maim (Hopefully very very small!) & some percentage it will kill! (Hopefully very very very small!) and that’s just the way it is. It will never change, All science & technology can do is drive the good percentages up and the bed percentages down but they will never go away! Somebody will always win the wrong side of that lottery! Not to be flippant but yes it sucks to be them ! I am very sorry for those who pick the bad number; my heart goes out to those people but that’s reality! You can’t run away from it. Most anti-vaccine people I talk to want magic not medicine!
