In comparison with A Population-Based Study of Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Vaccination and
Autism, I found that they both have a population study in Denmark in the 1990s. When CDC
mentions this in the chart, it is paired with Sweden and looked at before and after results of when
they stopped using thimerosal in vaccines. They found that autism rates increased, and came
to the conclusion that thimerosal exposure was not the cause of autism. The other study was a
retrospective follow-up study of all children that were born in Denmark from 1991-1998. They
established this from data from the Danish Civil Registration system. It was designed to “evaluate
the suggested link between MMR vaccination and autism.” Both came to the conclusion that
there was “strong evidence against the hypothesis that MMR vaccination causes autism.”
This source is useful as it compiled nine studies on the effect that thimerosal has to determine
the toxicity of it. This shapes my argument as the studies cover a wide range of what they were
looking at and yet each came to a similar conclusion. It shows that even through a wide range of
years and looking with and without the vaccine, they were able to determine that thimerosal is
nontoxic, and is a beneficial preservative within vaccines, and in no way what so ever linked to
causing autism. This changed the way that I think about my paper by the broad spectrum that the
nine cases cover, which is almost every angle that critics try and use.

In this source title MMR Vaccine causes Autism - leaked CDC Research Proves it by Mark
Wachtler states that in 2014, whistleblowers uncovered evidence of decades of government
coverups on vaccines. He says that this CDC whistleblower has a study proving MMR vaccines
cause autism, but is silenced by the CDC, and have even “changed his research results, lied to the
American people about the vaccine-autism evidence, and have withheld the details from Congress
for over a decade now.” He mentions that back in 2013 the “courts quietly confirm MMR
Vaccine causes Autism” and awarding monetary damages to parents of autistic children who sued
vaccine manufacturers. Also that Dr. Andrew Wakefield’s definitive link between the vaccine
and autism, even though his overall study was “discredited for other reasons” his evidence that
he discovered in his case was irrefutable. The source also mentions Natural News and the arti-
