“Vaccines cause autism.”
HIGH CONFIDENCE
TL;DR ·Decades of research and major health bodies find no causal link between vaccines and autism.
The claim contradicts established scientific consensus. PolitiFact's review concludes that decades of vaccine research doesn't show they cause autism . Johns Hopkins states plainly that vaccines do not cause autism . In December 2025 the WHO's vaccine safety committee reviewed new evidence and reaffirmed that there is no link . A peer-reviewed NIH-hosted review calls the connection a myth . The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia notes that the two studies cited for an MMR-autism link are critically flawed . The myth originated with Andrew Wakefield's 1998 paper , described as a fraudulent study . Autism Speaks and the Autism Science Foundation, both moderate-credibility sources, agree . Autism Speaks notes that autism signs may appear around the time of scheduled vaccinations, but that timing coincidence does not show causation . FactCheck.org found that the revised CDC webpage on autism and vaccines was not evidence-based , and that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited a flawed paper to justify a link . High-credibility sources consistently contradict the claim, and the few contrary assertions come from advocacy rather than evidence.
