You are asking this because you have heard of the connection. I have done lots of research, enough to recover my children, and let me say absolutely no way will we be getting any more shots. When you spend a lot of time researching, you learn too much, and you feel confident in not getting vaccines. Doctors who are reversing autism, talk about their belief in the connection, and of course, the numerous amounts of parental complaints can not be ignored. But, the prevailing theme is that as much as some feel it's totally the vaccines, many just feel their immune systems are not able to handle the vaccines due to latent pathogens they already have. Due to the research not being respected, and in a mess of adverse opinions, with a defiance to do more comprehensive research, we are in a quandry at just how much vaccines play a role.

For your neice, realize that thousands have been recovered, but its expensive, and takes some years. But, even so, my kids are all in regular school with no modifications, so they are living as normals, except for being on special diets and supplements to fight pathogens and toxins. Gee, I could write a book on all this, but I don't have the time, of course, so let me just say you can use homeopathy to build up the same antibody titers that vaccines do, you can get a waiver from your local health department to not take vaccines, and there is much more. I recommend you go to Yahoo Groups on autism and get more information, buy some books on it, and/or do some more googling. You will find conflicting reports, but I feel that anyone with a fair mind would not vaccinate if the researched it. You don't want to know what you will learn. You will never view the world the same again.

Just reading the CDC website, I was repulsed at the vaccine ingredients, the fact they only last 5 to 10 years, and the rarity of them harming you or you getting most of them. There are a few that actually one might get and could be fatal. But, when you learn a ton to recover your children, you also learn a ton on how to treat pathogens and toxins. There is really this whole other world that the media doesn't talk about, that exists. There are doctors and other practitioners within driving distance of everyone that knows this stuff. You should google. You will be in shock at what you learn. I am blind no more.

Well the studies about the immunizations causing autism aren't quite that conclusive, but I would recommend only the 24 shots that were originally given to children in the late 70's, because after they increased the # of shots in the 80's is when autism began to rise in children, but you can go online in " google" to get more accurate numbers and information. My first grandchild is due in October and I'm already looking into this for my daughter. Good luck!!

no - this is a myth.

NO

purely an anti-vaccine lie

Absolutely false. Autism is a mental disorder that stems from a brain defect when you are born. 100% of autism is a genetic disorder.

Most of the doctors reversing autism appear to feel vaccines are involved, but the question is how much. This answer is still unknown. There are many things involved in contributing to autism that one can get without vaccines, so currently we are in a quandry.

Let's see…within 3 hours of his mmr at 14 months my son had a fever of 104, was blue and had depressed respiratory function. He later showed a remarkably high level of mercury (hmmm..ethyl mercury, thimerasol, the great save a buck preservative giving big pharma a few more million $$) and a grossly defective immune system along with tics, lack of speech, poor motor control and many digestive issues. Chelation to remove the beloved mercury and IVIG treatment have enabled him to regain mental function, develope more normally and generally have a life. They may not be the only cause, but saying vaccines don't cause autism is way to broad of a brush to paint this answer with. Care, caution and refusing vaccines unless your child is 100% healthy AND you have no family history of immune system disorders is a reasonable course of action to prevent my son's lot in life from being your own child's as well.
