Who do you mean by 'they'? The CDC, the whistle blowers, the makers of the film?
Stuff like this rarely ends in nobody's hanging, but its rarely the right people. Even when its the right entity, they'll find a scapegoat.

I think this is the doc that DeNiro would not allow to be shown at his film festival, Tribeca.
why are the still parroting the debunked autism MMR vaccine link. that study used 12 kids, have conflict of interests etc.

On 5 January 2011, the BMJ published the first of a series of articles by Brian Deer, detailing how Wakefield and his colleagues had faked some of the data behind the 1998 Lancet article. By looking at the records and interviewing the parents, Deer found that for all 12 children in the Wakefield study, diagnoses had been tweaked or dates changed to fit the article's conclusion

There is no link between vaccines and autism.
Some people have had concerns that ASD might be linked to the vaccines children receive, but studies have shown that there is no link between receiving vaccines and developing ASD. In 2011, an Institute of Medicine (IOM) report on eight vaccines given to children and adults found that with rare exceptions, these vaccines are very safe.
A 2013 CDC study[PDF - 204 KB] added to the research showing that vaccines do not cause ASD. The study looked at the number of antigens (substances in vaccines that cause the body’s immune system to produce disease-fighting antibodies) from vaccines during the first two years of life. The results showed that the total amount of antigen from vaccines received was the same between children with ASD and those that did not have ASD.
Vaccine ingredients do not cause autism.
One vaccine ingredient that has been studied specifically is thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative used to prevent contamination of multidose vials of vaccines. Research shows that thimerosal does not cause ASD. In fact, a 2004 scientific review by the IOM concluded that "the evidence favors rejection of a causal relationship between thimerosal–containing vaccines and autism." Since 2003, there have been nine CDC-funded or conducted studies[PDF - 357 KB] that have found no link between thimerosal-containing vaccines and ASD, as well as no link between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and ASD in children.
Between 1999 and 2001, thimerosal was removed or reduced to trace amounts in all childhood vaccines except for some flu vaccines. This was done as part of a broader national effort to reduce all types of mercury exposure in children before studies were conducted that determined that thimerosal was not harmful. It was done as a precaution. Currently, the only childhood vaccines that contain thimerosal are flu vaccines packaged in multidose vials. Thimerosal-free alternatives are also available for flu vaccine. For more information, see the Timeline for Thimerosal in Vaccines.
Besides thimerosal, some people have had concerns about other vaccine ingredients in relation to ASD as well. However, no links have been found between any vaccine ingredients and ASD.

The anti-vax clique has done severe damage. According to the American Journal of Medicine the USA was measles free in 2000, in 2014 there were 331 cases across 27 states. Rubela is also making a comeback, the Zika virus is a mere trifle compared to what rubela can do to a pregnant woman.
4 diseases are making a comeback because anti-vaxxers cannot handle modern civilization

The way DeNiro phrased it is that the film does nothing to advance our knowledge of the situation. We've heard it all before.
Its the left wing side of the anti-science crowd who tend to be anti-vaccine, same crowd that often times supports homeopathy as well.
The right wingers who are anti-science tend to be more climate change deniers.
