Vaccines do not cause autism

Just on Friday the 13th, a special court severed the link between autism and vaccinations (Read here). Finally! A triumph of real science over pseudoscience and reason over speculation.

What pisses me off about those attacks are that they target one of the greatest medical defense networks in place today. With an entire population vaccinated, there is no place for a disease to take root and begin spreading, so it is essentially denied from the population. However, once even a few people are left out of this vaccination net, there is place for the disease to begin to infect people. These then can spread it on to others who, although they may have been vaccinated, may have diminished immunity several years after taking the vaccine.
What we're seeing now is a resurgence in diseases that were once virtually eradicated: whopping cough, measles, and others that are easily prevented.

By continuing to tout the autism-vaccination "link," parents who feel that they are protecting their children are in fact doing the opposite, hurting their children, themselves, and society.
They are attacking the vaccination system are hypocrites as they are damaging a system that has benefited them passively.
