“Group B – No Sibling ASD, No MMR (5 yrs)
7,735 children
68 Autistic (860 × .08)”
You mean 0.8 which is fractional to 0.9
you cannot cherry pick data, since you are looking at age 5, it would be interesting to note that children with just one dose had higher rates of ASD than those that had two vaccines.
Also, since we are still at age 5,
Fully vaccinated children had a rate of 0.5%
Unvaccinated at all: 0.7%
Quoted from the study.
“We also found no evidence that receipt of either 1 or 2 doses of MMR vaccination was associated with an increased risk of ASD among children who had older siblings with ASD. As the prevalence of diagnosed ASD increases, so does the number of children who have siblings diagnosed with ASD, a group of children who are particularly important as they were undervaccinated in our observations as well as in previous reports.”
“The prevalence of ASD among all index children in the study sample was 1.04%, comparable with the current estimate of ASD prevalence of 1.5% in the general US population.28 In addition, the younger siblings of children with ASD had a 6.9% risk of ASD, also consistent with published estimates ranging from 6.4% to 24.7%.”
“Conclusions
In this large sample of privately insured children with older siblings, receipt of the MMR vaccine was not associated with increased risk of ASD, regardless of whether older siblings had ASD. These findings indicate no harmful association between MMR vaccine receipt and ASD even among children already at higher risk for ASD.”
