They denied that there were any dangerous side effects of the vaccine and that Covid did not pose a serious threat of severe illness to the young and healthy. They also put out a false story about how COVID started in a wet market. Have you noticed that nobody is making that claim anymore?
That being said, there was one seemingly credible study which supported the premise that the MMR vaccine was not dangerous to young children.
A Japanese research study has provided the strongest proof yet that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccination does not cause autism, by showing that rates of autism in Japan continued to rise even after the triple vaccine was withdrawn.
Japanese study is more evidence that MMR does not cause autism - PMC.
But there were also many reports to VAERS that children becamevery sick including some who became Autistic. Maybe it is just a coincidence that the rates of Autism sky rocketed around the same time that the MMR was rolled out.

I particularly liked this quote:

Liberal Democrat MP Evan Harris, who sits on the House of Commons science and technology select committee, does not think that the new findings will dispel anxiety about the MMR vaccines. "The problem is you can't prove a negative. The people making a link are not using rational arguments, so the usual scientific approach will never convince them, and they will continue to lobby in the media
