Just to let you know, my young cousin developed autism after a flu shot. You don’t know everyone’s situation so maybe don’t be so insensitive.

just to let you know, you’re a fucking idiot and whoever told your cousin’s guardian that needs to go to another doctor, because that’s so fucking inaccurate and false.

i’m not gonna be nice, i’m not gonna be polite. you picked the wrong bio major to pick a fucking fight with. i’m only gonna tell you this once, so listen the fuck up:

• your cousin was born with autism. they did not develop it magically. 
• it’s not like cancer or, hey, THE FLU. you can’t catch it like the chicken pox or measles WHICH IS SPREADING BC PEOPLE LIKE YOU THINK VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM AND GOD FORBID
• GOD FORBID A CHILD BE “DIFFERENT” FROM OTHER CHILDREN AND REQUIRE SPECIAL ATTENTION. GOD FORBID YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TO BE A FUCKING PARENT OR SUPPORTIVE RELATIVE
• there are autistic people on this very website that have said vaccines causing autism is bullshit from autism speaks and it’s terrible organization altogether
• ANYWAYS. ABOUT YOUR COUSIN. it may have started to show significantly after they received the flu shot but that’s a coincidence
• YOU DO NOT GET CONGENIAL DISEASES FROM VACCINES. IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.  OH MY GOD.
• congenial = born with it.  INHERITED DISEASE FROM PARENT.  RECEIVED GENE.  NOT CAUGHT LIKE THE COMMON COLD.
• If you’re autistic there is actually something PHYSICALLY wrong with the brain (quoting my sister, WHO IS A DOCTOR and specifically treats CHILDREN with eye problems and neurological disorders, thus she’d be a pretty good person to trust on this topic)
• Just like depression, cerebral palsy and fucking heart disease, there is a PHYSICAL appearance of the disease.  
• Because of the sensitivity of the brain, it’s safe to say that it’s ALWAYS been there.
• you can’t just develop something in your brain without noticing shit unless it’s always been there and a trained professional can actually pinpoint it
• your cousin’s guardian is blaming the vaccine because they’re uniformed and i honestly feel bad for your cousin because they’re probably not getting vaccine and their health is being put at risk because their parent is afraid more vaccines will make it “worse”
• which is fucking stupid by the way
• i don’t have all the time in the world to explain you how learning disorders and mental diseases and how insensitive i apparently am about the subject. i’m actually well versed in mental disorders, learning disabilities and the like:
• my sister is dyslexic 
• i have depression, ADD and OCPD
• i have a cousin WHO IS AUTISTIC – they’ve always been that way and nothing is going to change about that
• i work with kids with cerebral palsy, degeneration neurological conditions and other mental conditions ALL THE TIME
• my best friend is studying to be a psychiatrist 
• my dad works at a mental healthcare center that houses full-time long-term patients
• so i’m not misinformed or “insensitive” i’m quite the opposite when it comes to people like this.  but i’m not gonna be sensitive towards your ignorant ass because you can’t be bothered to google search how beneficial vaccines are verses autism
• you also can’t be bothered to get a second opinion on the subject like???? so you just take one doctor’s word for it like wtf. who decided that? 
• and even IF they did cause autism you bet your ass i would be getting ALL of them ANYWAY. for my kids. my grandkids. my nieces and nephews. everyone i know. because i would rather them be “different” than have them die of an entirely preventable disease and cause the next black plague.

The Immunization Safety Review Committee just released a report on the hypothesis of vaccines causing autism and one can download the PDF book or read online for free here. In short, they found NO evidence that vaccines cause autism. And scientists worked really hard to find evidence. We do care about the safety of what we put out there for the public. But in the end vaccines do not cause autism.
