Please take some time to peruse through these 35 studies published in reputable scientific journals. Get the facts for yourself. Your doctor might also like to investigate facts straight out of published papers rather than relying on pharmaceutical reps for their training. If you don’t manage to get through all of the papers, go straight to the bottom and watch a short video with insightful commentary by someone who has scoured the science literature for information on vaccine safety.

1. Study: Adverse Events following 12 and 18 Month Vaccinations: a Population-Based, Self-Controlled Case Series Analysis. For 1 in 168 children, vaccines cause side effects so severe that they require an ER visit. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3236196/

Rotovirus linked to fatal intestinal disorder in 1 in every 4670 infants. “There was also an increase in the risk of intussusception after the second dose of the vaccine… The strong association between vaccination with RRV-TV and intussusception among otherwise healthy infants supports the existence of a causal relation.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1773072/
6. Analysis: Commentary–Controversies surrounding mercury in vaccines: autism denial as impediment to universal immunization. “The risk of autism among African American children vaccinated before the age of 2 years was 340% that of those vaccinated later.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25377033

Is it the consequence of multi-systemic dysfunction affecting the elimination of heavy metals and the ability to regulate neural temperature? “The related and damaging effect of exposure to high levels of mercury… a viable alternative explanation for the occurrence of regressive autism. The evidence indicates there is alteration to chromosome structure and/or function.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3364648/
11. Study: A case series of children with apparent mercury toxic encephalopathies manifesting with clinical symptoms of regressive autistic disorders. Mercury toxic encephalopathy manifesting with clinical symptoms of regressive autistic disorders. ‪http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17454560
12. Analysis: A comprehensive review of mercury provoked autism. “A comprehensive review of mercury-provoked autism. In conclusion, the overwhelming preponderance of the evidence favours acceptance that Hg exposure is capable of causing some ASDs.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19106436
13. Analysis: Thimerosal Exposure and the Role of Sulfating Chemistry and Thiol Availability in Autism. Explanation of why some children are at greater risk of developing autism after vaccines. “The evidence suggests that the abnormal sulfation chemistry, limited thiol availability, and decreased GSH reserve capacity could explain why the adverse effects of TM are greater in a subpopulation of children with this susceptibility…” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3774468/
14. Evidence: B-Lymphocytes from a Population of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Their Unaffected Siblings Exhibit Hypersensitivity to Thimerosal. “Certain individuals with a mild mitochondrial defect may be highly susceptible to mitochondrial specific toxins” found in vaccines, resulting in autism spectrum disorders. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3697751/

16. Hypotheses: Autism: a novel form of mercury poisoning. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11339848
17. Study: A prospective study of thimerosal-containing Rho(D)-immune globulin administration as a risk factor for autistic disorders. Link between autism and prenatal exposure to heavy metals via Rhogam shot in RH-negative mothers. “Children with ASDs (28.30%) were significantly more likely (odds ratio 2.35, 95% confidence interval 1.17-4.52, p < 0.01) to have Rh-negative mothers than controls (14.36%).” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17674242
18. Study: Reduced levels of mercury in first baby haircuts of autistic children. Autistic children have difficulty excreting heavy metals like mercury, as evidenced by significantly lower levels of mercury in their hair. This points to a genetic susceptibility to autism in children who cannot effectively detox vaccine toxins. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12933322
19. Analysis: A possible central mechanism in autism spectrum disorders, part 1. “A possible central mechanism in autism spectrum disorders… the link between excessive vaccination, use of aluminum and ethylmercury as vaccine adjuvants, food allergies, gut dysbiosis, and abnormal formation of the developing brain.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19043938

25. Study:
    1. Abstract: Impact of environmental factors on the prevalence of autistic disorder after 1979. Fetal and Retroviral Contaminants in Vaccines Linked to Autism and Cancer. “…Linear regression revealed that Varicella and Hepatitis A immunization coverage was significantly correlated to autistic disorder cases… Autistic disorder change points years are coincident with introduction of vaccines manufactured using human fetal cell lines, containing fetal and retroviral contaminants, into childhood vaccine regimens. This pattern was repeated in the US, UK, Western Australia and Denmark. Thus, rising autistic disorder prevalence is directly related to vaccines manufactured utilizing human fetal cells…” Abstract: http://www.academicjournals.org/…/article-abst…/C98151247042
    2. Full Study: Impact of environmental factors on the prevalence of autistic disorder after 1979 https://academicjournals.org/journal/JPHE/article-full-text-pdf/C98151247042
26. Evidence: WHO Informal consultation on the application of molecular methods to assure the quality, safety, and efficacy of vaccines. Scientists have known for decades about the dangers of insertional mutagenesis caused by using human fetal cell lines in vaccines. Instead of conducting safety studies, the FDA has ignored the dangers and merely regulates the amount of human DNA that can be present in a vaccine to no greater than 10ng–an amount that has not been proven safe. https://www.who.int/biologicals/Molecular%20Methods%20Final%20Mtg%20Report%20April2005.pdf
27. Hypothesis: conjugate vaccines may predispose children to autism spectrum disorders. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21993250
28. Study: A positive association found between autism prevalence and childhood vaccination uptake across the U.S. population. “The higher the proportion of children receiving recommended vaccinations, the higher was the prevalence of AUT or SLI. A 1% increase in vaccination was associated with an additional 680 children having AUT or SLI. Neither parental behavior nor access to care affected the results, since vaccination proportions were not significantly related (statistically) to any other disability or to the number of pediatricians in a U.S. state. The results suggest that although mercury has been removed from many vaccines, other culprits may link vaccines to autism.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21623535
29. Study: A two-phase study evaluating the relationship between Thimerosal-containing vaccine administration and the risk for an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis in the United States. “The present study provides new epidemiological evidence supporting an association between increasing organic-Hg exposure from Thimerosal-containing childhood vaccines and the subsequent risk of an ASD diagnosis.”http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3878266/
30. Study: Adverse events following immunization with vaccines containing adjuvants. Adverse events after vaccines containing adjuvants linked to autism and autoimmune conditions. “A traditional infectious disease vaccine is a preparation of live attenuated, inactivated or killed pathogen that stimulates immunity. Vaccine immunologic adjuvants are compounds incorporated into vaccines to enhance immunogenicity. Adjuvants have recently been implicated in the new syndrome named ASIA autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants…. The most frequent clinical findings were pyrexia 68%, arthralgias 47%, cutaneous disorders 33%, muscle weakness 16% and myalgias 14%. Three patients had diagnosis of Guillain-Barre syndrome, one patient had Adult-Still’s disease 3 days after vaccination. A total of 76% of the events occurred in the first 3 days post-vaccination. Two patients with previous autoimmune disease showed severe adverse reactions with the reactivation of their illness… Vaccines containing adjuvants may be associated with an increased risk of autoimmune/inflammatory adverse events following immunization. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23576057
31. Study: Hair Toxic Metal Concentrations and Autism Spectrum Disorder Severity in Young Children. Higher heavy metals in hair samples from severely autistic children http://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/9/12/4486
32. Study: What is regressive autism and why does it occur? Is it the consequence of multi-systemic dysfunction affecting the elimination of heavy metals and the ability to regulate neural temperature? Subtle DNA changes and the overuse of vaccines in autism. “There is a compelling argument that the occurrence of regressive autism is attributable to genetic and chromosomal abnormalities, arising from the overuse of vaccines, which subsequently affects the stability and function of the autonomic nervous system and physiological systems… This article explores the issues and concludes that sensory dysfunction and systemic failure, manifested as autism, is the inevitable consequence arising from subtle DNA alteration and consequently from the overuse of vaccines.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3364648/
