Autism originates in mitochondrial impairment during critical stages of neurological development -- but it emerges only after a fever. Vaccines often causes fevers, which is why the onset of ASD coincides with vaxx injury.
All other theories of autism can be integrated under the mitochondrial, because they all act thru the mitochondria. That's why therapies that target mitochondria treat ASD. But why do "massive" studies of individual vaccines fail to find the link? Because when you study these vaccines in isolation, you miss the children who regressed in response to other vaccines.
The right question is whether any or all vaccines initiate autism in children with blood markers of mitochondrial dysfunction, not whether MMR or any other single vaxx will cause autism in any child. Asking the right question is critical to finding the right answer. Should the internal efforts at the NIH examine the origins of ASD without the benefit of the mitochondrial theory that integrates them all, those efforts will fail.
More importantly, as Jay says, knowing the etiology of autism is critical to developing effective treatments. The reverse is also true. Watching ASD kids on mitochondrial therapies recover lost neurological capabilities and lose their diagnoses should tell us all we need to know about the etiology.
To turn exponential ASD diagnosis curve back down, we must get pregnant women and Mothers the metabolic therapies they need, but no doctor every counsels them on.
