Has it Been Proven That Vaccines Cause Autism?
There has been a lot of talk recently on websites, blogs and social media that there is new “proof” that vaccines cause or at least increase the rate of autism. There has been talk of a “CDC whistle-blower” who has revealed that the CDC knew about this and has covered it up. People affected by autism should want to know the truth. Here are some links that may help you to sort through this.

Without telling you what to believe, I will say that you should take into account the nature of the websites and blogs that have been reporting the “coverup.” If their purpose is to deal with conspiracies in general or the autism-vaccine relationship in particular, there may be reasons why they have a specific interpretation.
As a parent of two children with autism, not only do I have no concerns vaccinating my younger children, I have huge concerns about other parents not vaccinating their children.
