The claim that vaccines cause autism is totally FALSE and was propagated by a 1998 fraudulent paper by Andrew Wakefield. Now disgraced, AW has been struck off the medical register. His claims led to a rise in measles cases and the myth that vaccines cause autism https://twitter.com/susannalharris/status/1295732134209101825

In fact... vaccines prevent nearly 2.5 million deaths per year in 2010-2015, and has/almost eradicated smallpox, polio, tetanus, rubella, mumps, diphtheria, measles (and many more). As well as giving the unvaccinated *cough* dumb... population good herd immunity to these.

The ONLY people who shouldn’t get vaccines are very old people who those with compromised immune systems already (disease, chemo etc.). This does mean we all should get vaccinated though to give them herd immunity

Tweeted about vaccinology a minute ago, and it reminded my of the OP’s quoted tweet, hence this thread! it AMAZES me that people are DUMB enough not to vaccinate their children
