NATIONALLY REPRESENTATIVE U.S. government data (NHIS) from 21,990 children in the FIRST-EVER study examining childhood COVID vaccination and autism outcomes. Compared with unvaccinated children, COVID-vaccinated children had significantly higher odds of: AUTISM: +32% ADHD: +33% ANY NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDER: +23% SPECIAL-ED USE: +19% ASTHMA: +24% ANXIETY: +27% MENTAL-HEALTH DRUG USE: +57% MENTAL-HEALTH THERAPY: +60% The strongest autism signal hit young children: ages 5–7 with 3+ COVID shots had 154% higher odds of AUTISM. The odds of multiple conditions increased with more COVID shot doses—including autism, ADHD, anxiety, neurodevelopmental disorders, asthma, and mental-health therapy. The autism signal PERSISTED even after accounting for age, sex, race/ethnicity, income, parental education, insurance, region, healthcare access, wellness visits, ER use, hospitalization, prescription use, and influenza vaccination—and REMAINED after propensity-score balancing.
