Or is there a link between vaccinations and autism? I grew up and had every single vaccination before school started as mandated by the state and school. When I served in the military I had even more vaccinations to further prevent any type of crazy sickness, never had any adverse reactions or conditions due to it.
But as we’ll know there has recently been a movement to go against these “one size fits all” vaccinations

There are a variety of reasons behind vaccine opposition. Some people have to forgo different vaccinations due to a high risk of potential allergic reactions. But for most who refuse vaccines it should be known that there is little risk.
Some cite religious beliefs as the reason behind their refusal to get vaccinated, though most mainstream religions do not condemn vaccines.
It was also believed that a vaccine wouldn’t protect you. Those who are vaccinated can still get sick, but they will experience mild symptoms.
People also think the risks outweigh the benefits. This is currently the biggest objection in the United States. Parents cite many medical risks, including autism, as potential consequences of being vaccinated.
There is the common belief that since these diseases have been eliminated, there’s no need for vaccinations. Diseases will only stay eradicated as long as vaccines are still used to prevent them.
I don't want your stinkin' kid coughing and hacking sitting in front of me on some bus, train, or plane.
"Most people understand that we get our immunizations to protect our children and ourselves from vaccine-preventable diseases, which often cause life-threatening infections.
The vaccines we get also protect everyone around us. Herd immunity dictates that if most people are immune to a disease, then it will be unlikely that anyone will get sick and infect anyone in the herd, including those who are unprotected.
Although many who purposely don't vaccinate their children or themselves claim they aren't part of the herd or don't believe in herd immunity, they still are. They are simply an unprotected member of the herd who relies on the rest of us for protection."
The vaccines- autism link has been disproven many, many times. The anti-vaxxers I know believe the earth is only 5,000 years old and they try to cure diseases with "essential oils", These aren't the people I'm going to listen to regarding medical science.
Are vaccinations good for kids? Yes.
Are mandatory vaccinations of kids good for society? Yes
Those who do NOT agree... are welcome to pack up and move away from society.
Find some patch in the desert where your views won't have a negative or lethal impact on others.
It's not that complicated.

I'm not an anti-vaxxer but if you are so sure they don't cause autism, to what do you attribute the meteoric rise in autism?
Not 5,000 years---6,000, LOL. But we all know it is 4 billion or so!

There's no science at all showing a link between autism and vaccines. One doesn't have to "prove" a cause to autism to rule out vaccine use as a cause. Lots of medical conditions have had meteoric increases in modern history, and just because we don't know exactly what the causes are, doesn't mean we can't rule certain things out.
Autism is kinda easy, you already have autism before you get vaccinated.
