I had a reaction to the MMR I. The MMR II, Varivax vaccine, and the Zostavax vaccines have real babies in them, so yes, I'm a firm believer that vaccination can cause autism.

I really don't think the anti-vax people subscribe to the autism argument anymore. That's been debunked. When the outbreak in LA county happened a couple of years ago and we learned that huge numbers of LA kids were unvaccinated, it turned-out that the ones not vaccinated were the children of affluent parents who held the "whole foods" mentality. The whole foods mentality is the uber health conscience mindset that says proper nutrition without additives, organic, etc, is all that's needed to be healthy.

Some people have other concerns than autism, but I agree that there are really no medical issues to be concerned about, except obviously people who are allergic to components of some vaccines, or who cannot be vaccinated because of age of compromised immunity. All the more reason for as many other people to be vaccinated as possible, because they'll protect those folks through "herd immunity."
The vaccine-autism "link" has not just been debunked through good scientific investigation, but (as most hopefully know by now) it can almost entirely be attributed to one bad study with poor methodology and some faked data.
