Hannah Poling Case
In March 2008, Hannah Poling was awarded compensation in a lawsuit in which her parents claimed that her autism was caused by nine vaccines she received in 2000. In the award, however, the decision was that the vaccines had aggravated a mitochondrial disease, which in turn led to her autism. It did not acknowledge that the vaccines themselves caused her autism.

@Amanda_Rudelt the studies on Somalis establish nothing. To argue that it's 'proof' to negate autism/vaccine link is irresponsible of you.
