A friend of mine passed this gem on to me and I couldn't have said it better myself:

Even if I humor anti-vaccine activists and for a second (and) believe that vaccines cause autisim in 0.01% of children they're adminstered to (spoiler alert: vaccines don't cause autisim), I am still deeply disturbed that these people are more afraid of people with disabilities than they are fatal, painful, and endemic diseases. If cognitive disabilites are more threatening to you than children never getting to grow up because polio makes a comeback, you have priorities to reevaluate my friend. Shame on you for brainwashing mothers and families into believeing that autisim is the absolute worst thing that can happen to a person.
