Scott Gottlieb: “There just is no link between the MMR vaccine and autism.”

Kids are less susceptible to the infection and less likely to transmit it, but less susceptible doesn't mean they are not susceptible.

I think the reality is, sometimes we have to accept no for an answer, that there just is no link between the MMR vaccine and autism.

I think the downside of this mandate in terms of hardening positions and taking something that was subtly political and making it overtly political could outweigh any of the benefits that we hope to achieve.

I think we should start lifting these restrictions as aggressively as we put them in.
