    The anti-vaccination movement gained significant traction after Andrew Wakefield’s fraudulent research paper on the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and autism was published in The Lancet in 1998. While the findings have now been disproven by numerous academic institutions and peer-reviewed research, the impact of the paper has persisted [7–10]. These attitudes have grown substantially through celebrity support and social media platforms [11,12].

    In this study authors have not concentrated on the causal link between MMR and autism although this hypothesis caused high level of anxiety around the MMR vaccine. There is sufficient epidemiologic evidence that failed to show any link between MMR and autism [17–23]. At generally low incidence rates of autism, we should not anticipate high rates of autism in a prospective study of the cohort consisting of 500 children.
