A recent viral video is putting those who don’t believe in vaccines into question, and it’s all thanks to a pre-teen.
Marco Arturo, from Mexico, is calling out people who say vaccines can cause autism in a Facebook rant he posted last week.
The 12-year-old science enthusiast and video blogger started off by saying that doctors have been lying to the public, and that vaccines do cause autism.
Holding up a folder, with "Evidence That Vaccines Cause Autism," written on it, he said he wanted to read all the evidence gathered by universities proving the fact.
As he opened the folder, looking puzzled, he dumped the stack of blank pages, one by one, onto the ground.
"I think it might be because there is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that vaccines are linked to autism in anyway whatsoever," he said.
The video had been viewed more than 3.3 million times, and had been shared more than 45,000 times, including by Ashton Kutcher.
The link between vaccines and autism has long been disproven after a British Medical Journal expose debunked research by Andrew Wakefield.
