http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19614825?itool=EntrezSyst...

Which show that it has indeed been studied and that there is no known link. Rather, it is our detection capability that is improving.

There is plenty of information:

Jenny McCarthy is a well known anti-vaccine proponent who refuses to accept the huge number of studies in the area.

Who funded the studies? Money skews the findings, I think we can all agree...

There are multiple studies, all in prestigious peer-reviewed medical journals, that show that there is no link. In 2010, the peak of advancement in our species, you cannot get closer to fact than that.
