If you want a real summary. In order for anything to cause autism it would need to permanently change the way your brain works and the two systems(vaccines and mutations) are separate. Vaccines introduce the equivalence of an antigen for you to make antibodies which is not genetic manipulation just hijacking/abusing signalling pathways.

A distant family member wasn't vaccinated (can't remember why his parents chose not to). But when he was around 20, he got tested and was diagnosed with autism. I remember him posting about it in his socials and was like, "well, I'm gonna go get vaccinated now!"
