1. Nope. I don't see autism listed on the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program data sheet.

And you have to work pretty hard to be compensated for any vaccine related injury that is acknowledged.

"According to the CDC, from 2006 to 2014 over 2.5 billion doses of covered vaccines were distributed in the U.S. For petitions filed in this time period, 3,477 petitions were adjudicated by the Court, and of those 2,211 were compensated. This means for every 1 million doses of vaccine that were distributed, 1 individual was compensated.

Since 1988, over 17,028 petitions have been filed with the VICP. Over that 27 year time period, 14,602 petitions have been adjudicated, with 4,687 of those determined to be compensable, while 9,915 were dismissed. Total compensation paid over the life of the program is approximately $3.3 billion."
