Can Autism be caused by Hepatites B injection given twice by mistake to a baby within 6 months of birth?

A child, now 6 years old, has been diagnosed to have Autism. The child was given Hepatites B injection twice by mistake when he was less than 6 months old. Could this double dosage caused his Autism?

Absolutely not. The war that is being waged about vaccines is political, not scientific. Please see the recent transcripts from the June Vaccine Court trial. You can find that and more by googling 'autism hub'.

I work with children with Autism and parents ask this type of question all the time. As of today, there has been no scientific proof that any immunizations cause Autism. Many parents are fighting this and trying to "prove" what has caused Autism... but so far, there is no evidence. I wish you the best of luck with your son and I hope you are receiving great services from his school and other community agencies.

I should point out, however, that there are studies of correlations between Hepatitis B vaccines and autism. That doesn't mean 'yes', but it's a possiblity, and, really, it's hard to discern any precise reason for autism.

There is a link between vaccines and autism. Don't let the CDC fool you.

If there is no link, please explain why there are no autistic kids in the amish population. There are no vaccinated kids in the amish population.

Vaccines send the immune system haywire.

Unfortunately the damage is done and you need to now move past the why and work on how to help your child recover.

Yes. Absolutely. Anything that causes distress in the first few weeks after birth can make a child predisposed to autism.

The vaccination "theory" is argued mostly over the mercury that was added as a preservative (thimerisol) in the MMR shot. To date this has neither been proven or disproven although there are 2800 families in court as we speak to try and do just that...put an answer to this question once and for all.

mom to 5 year old autistic son

How can you explain that my autistic child's lab tests have shown she has a significant amount of mercury in her body. Where from she got that... Our family doesn't eat any seafood.

My son also had a mistake in the timing of his vaccines... getting them too soon, and then 3 different sources "confirmed" they would have to be repeated at the appropriate age...which I unfortunately did. I have no doubt the accumulation of the neurotoxic preservatives in all of these vaccines led to his autism. I have since looked up preservatives other than thimerosol and found that they too are considered neurotoxins.
