Easy to drop those allergy and autism rates to 0 if you don't vaccinate. And before you reflexively hit the downvote button, go look up autism and allergy rates in countries that don't vaccinate. Meanwhile general nutrition and sanitation has done more to eliminate disease than vaccination ever did.

Got a link for that? That's the argument I keep hearing from my ecofreak friends, I honestly didn't expect to read it on HN

You got to be careful here. Countries that don’t vaccinate also don’t care to diagnose autism. For example, according to this site(https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-is-the-most-anti-vaxx...) the most antivax country in the world is Ukraine and they definitely not up to par with US on diagnosing autism according to their autism awareness project: https://child.ua/en/projects/autism-awareness-ukraine/
