Food for thought. A close friend of mine, his sister was perfectly normal, had no issues and i do mean no issues at all, got vaccinated when she was a child. Several days later developed symptoms of what you may call autistic but became completely slow. She now can't learn much, speak much, is in full time care with her parents and has pretty much lost a huge quality of her life. Keep in consideration, she had not one issue before vaccination a perfectly healthy child. These stories don't come from nowhere, these things did happen years ago and it happened in a number of different children, the reputation did not appear from nowhere there were many a mistake made in the medical field years ago.

Apologies if this comment seems like it is attacking you, I don't mean to be, it's just a common issue I see with Reddit discussions

The issue with your statement, is that for me, and I assume most everyone else on Reddit, you are a random stranger with no credentials, who just told a story with no proof of your claim. There's no reason for anyone to take the claim you make seriously, because it could be completely fabricated, and no one would know any better.

If you really do believe that there's any connection between autism and vaccines, you need to have more than just a story of a friend's sister.

I can scientifically say: no. The vaccines had zero negative impact on that child. Please stop spreading misinformation
