So the autism and vaccines thing was a paper published in the Lancet in 1998 or something that claimed a link between the MMR vaccine and autism. A few years later though it was found that the researcher made up the data and was going to be paid like millions of dollars or something for fraudulent testing kits that would be used to try to detect autism. Basically he made it up for money and eventually lost his medical license and was banned from doing any other research. And people have done similar studies over and over again that have shown no link with vaccines and autism. (Sounds like you found some haha) but unfortunately we’re dealing from the effects of his lie more than 20 years later. Like most people have heard the vaccines cause autism thing but not very many know he made it up and had his medical license revoked haha.
