Autism and Vaccines 2025: CDC Page Changed Under RFK Jr – What Doctors Want Parents to Know
Big changes happened this week. The CDC website on autism and vaccines looks different now.
What changed on the CDC page?
Before, the CDC said clearly: vaccines do not cause autism.
Now the page says studies have “not ruled out” a link. RFK Jr. ordered this change.
Doctors and scientists are very upset. They call it wrong and confusing.
Do vaccines really cause autism?
No. More than 40 studies looked at over 5.6 million children.
Every study says the same thing: vaccines do not cause autism.
Countries like Denmark, Japan, and Canada all agree.
“Vaccines and autism have been studied for 25 years. The science is settled. There is no link.”
Where did the myth start?
A 1998 study by Andrew Wakefield claimed a link. The study had only 12 children.
It was fake. The paper was removed. Wakefield lost his doctor license.
What actually causes autism?
Autism is mostly genetic. Over 250 genes play a role.
Some babies are born early. Older parents have higher chances.
Illness during pregnancy can raise risk too.
Why vaccines are still safe and important
Vaccines stop deadly diseases. Measles can hurt the brain much more than a shot.
Pregnant moms need vaccines. It protects the baby from real harm.
What parents should do now
Trust your child’s doctor. They know your family best.
Skip social media fear. Go to trusted sites instead.
Get children vaccinated on schedule. It is safe and saves lives.
