Abstract in brief
The study compares immunization rates between younger siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and controls, finding that many younger siblings had delayed or declined vaccinations, especially compared to fully immunized controls.
Parents with a child with ASD are more likely to delay or decline immunizations for their younger children, which may increase the risk of preventable infections.
Despite concerns, the rates of ASD diagnosis did not differ significantly between vaccinated and non-vaccinated younger siblings, but small sample sizes limit conclusions.]
And yet parents of autistic children are still likely to delay/decline vaccinations for their subsequent children (e.g., https://t.co/z0zsp6KeBd). More needs to be done to improve parental confidence in vaccinations, esp in this population. https://t.co/1YHpXIBt3T

@MikeDonio No. My answer is not based on belief, it is based on reviewing evidence from multiple studies.
Autism occurs in both vaccinated & unvaccinated children.
Rates of autism have not dropped when MMR vaccines have been paused.

Y si quieres casos de autismo sin vacunas aquí tienes un estudio que indica que los niños autistas suelen tener menos vacunas o ninguna:

@techanooid @championswimmer There are even studies that compared long term health effects between vaccinated and unvaccinated children and found no difference in autism rates.

@marvalys @Informed_Debate @ermagosh131 @gadawnie @goddeketal Another study looked at parents who had an autistic child, then declined vaccination for a younger child out of fear of them becoming Autistic from vaccination.
There was no link as the total difference between the two groups was 1 child.

@VigilantFox @stkirsch In this study, unvaccinated younger siblings of a child diagnosed with ASD, were evaluated for incidents of ASD. No significant difference in ASD diagnosis was found between the two groups of children, vaccinated and unvaccinated.
https://t.co/pCl3drS4zo
@GraduatedBen Guys, the issue is that unvaccinated children are developing Autism at the same rate. This is not rocket science
Shown in dozens of peer reviewed studies
Interestingly, it's been highly correlated with gestational hypothyroidism
