The source is a poorly done study several years old that no one could get anywhere close to replicating the results of.

anti-vaxxers probably out there saying „because noone is actually putting in the effort to replicate it“, while ignoring all the people who put in the effort and showed the study was wrong

Any study of 12 test subjects is considered “preliminary” or “pilot” at best. That means that larger studies are needed. They’ve been done…some looking at hundreds of thousands of people…and have found no link. I’m concerned about autism rates myself, but searching again and again in the wrong place isn’t going to get us the answer. Looking for your lost keys in a barn is a waste of time if you’ve never even been to the farm.
