(credit: NOAA) A new paper published in PNAS goes where many studies have gone over the last ten years: it shows that the administration of vaccines does not result in the development of autism-like behavior or brain malfunction. But it does so in dramatic fashion, by giving vaccines to young primates and tracking their development. This paper, along with many others on this topic over the last several years, aims to correct misconceptions among the public (and presidential candidates) that vaccination is linked to autism.
