Since we live in a class ridden society still in the UK what that really means is anyone with half a brain cell and who thinks about the issue is rejecting MMR and other vaccines, good for them I say. This does not mean that only middle class people have a brain but that is often also insinuated in our media. The Pharmaceutical industry should be the last port of call even when you are sick let alone when you are healthy and a year or so old. What the news is not saying is that our government has basically said the same thing as a result of an investigation into the drug industry. So even if it is it true that Dr Wakefield had a conflict of interest which I doubt our government definatly points out that many doctors do i.e. the industry is riddled with corruption. The reason Dr Wakefield is probably under investigation is because there is also a group of lawyers who are attempting to prove in court that Timersole (mercury) the cause of the dramatic rise in Autism i.e. to frighten other doctors away from giving evidence in that case, which will according an article in our Financial Times be the biggest layout in history against the drug industry. http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200405/cmselect/cmhealth/42/42.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
