Are there any fools out there that still think that childhood vaccines cause autism?
The British study that claimed there was a link was fraudulent.

Yeah, unfortunately some people still believe this disproved theory. I'm not surprised...I know someone who believes the Earth is flat and its alleged roundness is a centuries-old international conspiracy. No matter how absurd, fraudulent, or disproven an idea is, somebody somewhere is bound to believe it.

Well there's no evidence whatsoever to show there is a link as many many more reliable studies have been done by trusted professionals that have shown no link. But some people probably do after the typical media hype from this country.

Lots of them.
Aside from the fact this was suspected for years, this won't change a thing. You can't reason people out of a position they didn't reason themselves into. The anti-vaxxers aren't rational. Evidence and data will never convince them.

Yes, there are a lot of people that stil believe that childhood vaccinations cause autism, but I am not one of them. There is no connection between the vaccinations and autism. In my opinion, parents who choose not to vaccinate their children against illnesses that could kill them, or at least make them extremely ill, are being irresponsible.
