In spite of vast evidence of vaccine safety and its lack of connection to autism, this myth is still influencing parents to children with autism and general public and increases vaccination refusal rates. A lot of the distrust in vaccinations is rooted in the forceful nature it is put on individuals, without an explanation that is fully understandable to the general public in regards to the reasons of autism. With more evidence of genetic and epigenetic etiologies along with earlier diagnosis of autism the mystery surrounding autism symptomatology should be unveiled. Medical information about vaccine safety should be provided in an effective manner, with special attention paid not only to the content of the information but also to how it is presented, with a focus on providing a welcoming environment for open discussion about the benefits and risks. https://lnkd.in/ecrsUr-3
