Vaccines and autism in primate model

Year: 2015

Type: article

Abstract: The fear that vaccines cause autism has been a tale of changing hypotheses: first, involving the measles–mumps–rubella (MMR) vaccine followed by thimerosal, an ethylmercury-containing preservative in vaccines, and, most recently, the number and timing of vaccines. The primate study by Gadad et al. (1) addresses all three concerns.
