Vaccines Autism Hepatitis B Enfant Death Studies Claims Labyrinth

Vaccine Controversy 2026

 

The scientific evidence does not support the claim that vaccines in general cause the diseases or chronic conditions commonly attributed to them. Large-scale studies, systematic reviews, and ongoing safety surveillance show that recommended vaccines prevent far more disease than they cause, while certain specific vaccines have rare, established causal links to particular adverse events.

Autism and other chronic conditions

Multiple large studies and reviews find no causal link between vaccines (including MMR, thimerosal-containing vaccines, or aluminum-adjuvanted vaccines) and autism spectrum disorder. A November 2025 review by the WHO Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety (GACVS), covering studies from 2010 through mid-2025 plus earlier work, reaffirmed this conclusion. The strongest studies and meta-analyses (covering millions of children across countries) showed no association; a Danish registry analysis of more than 1.2 million children also found no link to autism or 50 other chronic childhood conditions. Earlier landmark studies (e.g., Danish cohorts of hundreds of thousands of children, a 2014 meta-analysis of >1.2 million children, Cochrane reviews) reached the same result. The 1998 Wakefield paper that originally suggested an MMR–autism link was retracted for scientific misconduct.

In November 2025 the CDC website language was revised to state that the claim “vaccines do not cause autism” is not evidence-based because studies have not ruled out every possibility. Major scientific and clinical organizations (WHO GACVS, American Academy of Family Physicians, Autism Science Foundation, and others) continue to state that the accumulated evidence shows no increased risk, and that the revised wording is misleading because extensive high-quality data have failed to detect a link. Autism diagnoses have risen for reasons that include broader diagnostic criteria, greater awareness, and factors such as parental age; vaccines are not supported as a cause.

Reviews also find no credible evidence that routine vaccines cause SIDS, multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, or most other chronic conditions frequently claimed in anti-vaccine material.

Established rare adverse events

Vaccines can cause side effects. Most are mild and transient (injection-site pain, fever, fatigue). Serious events are uncommon and vaccine-specific:

  • mRNA COVID-19 vaccines (Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna) have a confirmed causal association with myocarditis and pericarditis. Rates are highest in adolescent and young-adult males after the second dose (roughly on the order of 10–40 cases per million doses in the highest-risk groups in earlier data; lower with later formulations and longer intervals in some analyses). Most cases are mild and resolve with supportive care. COVID-19 infection itself produces higher rates of myocarditis than vaccination in most comparisons. Other routinely recommended vaccines have not been shown to cause myocarditis.
  • Certain non-mRNA COVID vaccines (e.g., Janssen/J&J adenovirus vector) were linked to rare thrombosis-with-thrombocytopenia syndrome and Guillain-Barré syndrome; authorization for the Janssen vaccine was later revoked in the U.S.
  • Some RSV vaccines (e.g., RSVpreF/Abrysvo) have been associated with a small excess of Guillain-Barré syndrome in older adults (on the order of ~18 excess cases per million doses in one analysis); recent data do not show an increase in myocarditis with RSVpreF.
  • MMR is associated with a small increase in febrile seizures.
  • Anaphylaxis occurs at roughly 1 per million doses across vaccines.

U.S. and global systems (VAERS, Vaccine Safety Datalink, WHO pharmacovigilance) continue to monitor these signals. Recent reviews of 2024–2025 COVID vaccine formulations found reporting rates for myocarditis and GBS below or consistent with background expectations.

Disease prevention versus causation

Inactivated, subunit, toxoid, and mRNA vaccines cannot cause the infectious disease they target. Live attenuated vaccines (e.g., MMR, oral polio in some settings, varicella) can very rarely produce vaccine-strain disease, mainly in severely immunocompromised people; this is orders of magnitude less common and less severe than wild-type infection. Routine childhood vaccination of U.S. cohorts born 1994–2023 is estimated to have prevented hundreds of millions of illnesses and more than a million deaths. Declines in coverage have been followed by resurgences of measles and other preventable diseases.

In short, the current evidence base treats vaccines as having a strong benefit–risk profile for recommended uses, with no support for broad claims that they cause autism or most other chronic diseases, and with transparent recognition of a small number of rare, specific adverse events that are actively monitored.

Joyful Life

You have all believed that it is with your hands that you do the work, the heavy lifting that makes the change you wish to see, but that is not so. Vibration, the intention of heart, does the work much more quickly and to much greater benefit. When you perceive something in the high way and you lift it (see it) to its true nature, in fact you are not denying what you see, you are supporting its lifting to the investment of the Divine, where it may live in a high vibration. When you have something low and you lift it high, it is no longer low. That’s a very simple example.
