Vaccines and Autism: Scientific Studies Overview

This document provides a balanced list of peer-reviewed scientific studies addressing the question

of whether vaccines are linked to autism. It includes studies showing no link as well as a few that

have claimed a link (including retracted or discredited ones), for transparency and full context.

PART 1: Studies Showing NO Link Between Vaccines and Autism


Hviid et al., 2019 - Annals of Internal Medicine

Study of 657,461 Danish children - no increased autism risk from MMR vaccine.

DeStefano et al., 2013 - JAMA

No association between the number of vaccine antigens and autism in 1,000+ children.

Jain et al., 2015 - JAMA

Among 95,000+ children, no increased autism risk after MMR - even in high-risk groups.

Taylor et al., 2014 - Vaccine

Meta-analysis of 10 studies (1.2 million+ children) - no link between vaccination and autism.

Uno et al., 2015 - Autism

Studied autism rates in vaccinated vs unvaccinated siblings. No difference found.

Maglione et al., 2014 - Pediatrics

Systematic review found no evidence that childhood vaccines increase autism risk.

PART 2: Studies or Claims Suggesting a Link (Discredited/Retracted)


Andrew Wakefield, 1998 - The Lancet

Claimed MMR-autism link in 12 children. Fully retracted in 2010. Wakefield lost license for fraud.

Geier & Geier studies (2000s) - Various minor journals

Claimed thimerosal link. Discredited due to flawed methods and ethical concerns.

Hooker, 2014 - Translational Neurodegeneration

Claimed higher autism in African-American boys post-MMR. Retracted due to serious errors.

VAERS reports - CDC Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System

Self-reported, unverified reports often misused as evidence. Not scientific proof.
