I have a relative who has refused to get her three children vaccinated because she's convinced that's what causes autism. Guess what? Her youngest child was just diagnosed with autism anyway. So now she says it's because she (the mom) was vaccinated as a child, and somehow that made her son autistic. There's no reasoning with unreasonable people.
