What Are The Risks Associated With MMR Vaccine?

I would like to know the true risks of the MMR vaccine. Does research show that it causes autism or other health risks? I have read so many differing reports. Is it safe for children to receive many vaccines at the same time? Is it true that the vaccine contains animal tissues: pig blood, horse blood, rabbit brain, dog or monkey kidneys, formaldehyde, hydrocortisone, monosodium glutamate and other harmful ingredients?
