Back in the day, before becoming president. Donald Trump said that the vaccines were probably causing autism. Of course, the main controversy was with Dr Andrew Wakefield, who with co-workers published an article in a leading British medical journal claiming a causal link between various vaccinations and a condition linked to autism. Apparently, the research was not replicated and there was a controversy regarding his alleged conflicts of interest. Wakefield has defended himself in numerous forums, including a 2010 book by, Skyhorse Publishing, Callous Disregard: Autism and Vaccines.
According to a Mid-Western Doctor, the evidence has moved on since then, with the vaccines being the only real common cause reason for the explosion of autism tht has occurred, it is alleged. The smoking gun is that regressive autism almost always occurs shortly after vaccination, and not before. This is prima facie evidence of causation. Further evidence is summarised below. It is a major issue as it raises major doubts about the vaxxes.
