The mother of a newborn child does not wish for her child to receive immunizations because she has read that immunizations, especially MMR vaccine, cause autism. Which of the following statements by the nurse is the FIRST response?

A. This statement is incorrect as current research shows no credible evidence linking immunizations to autism. B. While it might be necessary to have documentation if a parent refuses immunizations, this is not the most effective first response to the mother's concerns. C. While it is true that parents have the right to make decisions regarding immunizations, this response does not address the mother's specific concern about autism. D. Providing accurate, evidence-based information is the best first response. It addresses the mother's concerns directly and helps correct misinformation.
