Do you have children? Have you gotten them vaccinated? How would you feel if your kids died and their deaths could have been preventable?
You know correlation doesn't mean causation right?

Correlation doesn't equal causation, faggot.
Scientists are trained to recognize that correlation is not causation, that no conclusions should be drawn simply on the basis of correlation between X and Y (it could just be a coincidence).
.
Petabytes allow us to say: "Correlation is enough." We can stop looking for models. We can analyze the data without hypotheses about what it might show. We can throw the numbers into the biggest computing clusters the world has ever seen and let statistical algorithms find patterns where science cannot.
.
The new availability of huge amounts of data, along with the statistical tools to crunch these numbers, offers a whole new way of understanding the world. Correlation supersedes causation, and science can advance even without coherent models, unified theories, or really any mechanistic explanation at all.

Call me whatever names you want. That's not an argument. Just ad hominem smear...a hallmark tactic of shills like yourself.

that's reasonable, but vaccines still don't cause autism.
There was to my knowledge ONE study that had that as a result, opposed to what, hundreds, if not thousands, pointing to the opposite. Any parent wants what's best for their kids, but spreading bullshit like vaccines cause autism isn't helping anyone, and will end up hurting them instead.
