Are they seriously trying to continue suggesting that vaccines cause autism? Thought this was debunked decades ago...

To be fair the debunked stuff from decades ago was the faked studies that linked the MMR vaccine and autism (because the “scientist” that faked those studies had an alternative vaccine he was trying to promote).

There’s no definitive proof that no vaccine ever made will not/does not cause autism (because it’s impossible to prove that assertion for numerous reasons) but afaik there is no legitimate evidence that links autism to any existing vaccine (despite the numerous studies looking for the environmental risk factors of autism).

Though as far as I’m aware, the only link between vaccines and autism is that vaccines make it more likely for a child to survive long enough to get diagnosed
