The IDSA is sponsored by pharmaceutical companies directly (below is just for one year) and indirectly because most medical boards and schools are deeply intertwined with pharma.
So I don't find them a reliable source for your claim.
I personally don't claim that the MMR vaccine is unsafe, and I've certinaly never claimed that it causes autism.
I just have no reason to think that it IS safe.
