美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）修改了其网页上“自闭症与疫苗”的相关内容。之前在网站上保持了近20年的结论：“研究未发现疫苗与自闭症之间存在联系，也未发现任何疫苗成分与自闭症有关联”，以及CDC的相关建议，都被删除。以下是外媒报道。

双语文本

A new analysis from experts gathered by the World Health Organization found no link between vaccines and autism--countering a recently revised stance by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

世界卫生组织（WHO）召集的专家进行的一项新分析发现，疫苗与自闭症之间没有关联——这与美国疾控中心（CDC）最近修改后的立场相悖。

The analysis comes after the CDC under President Donald Trump last month changed its long-held stance that vaccines don't cause autism, now saying on its website that the consensus is "not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism."

CDC长期以来认为疫苗不会导致自闭症，在唐纳德·特朗普总统的领导下，CDC上个月改变了其立场，在官网上宣称这一共识“并非基于证据的论断，因为研究尚未排除婴儿疫苗导致自闭症的可能性”。

WHO's Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety analysis added to the chorusof objections in reaffirming its previous conclusions from 2002, 2004 and 2012 that vaccines do not cause autism. The CDC did not respond to a request for comment on the analysis.

WHO全球疫苗安全咨询委员会的分析也加入了反对之声，重申了其在2002年、2004年和2012年得出的结论，即疫苗不会导致自闭症。CDC尚未对此分析作出回应。
