Between Sangeresque eugenics science (and forced sterilizations through the 1970s), alcoholism genes, so-called "junk" DNA, leucotomy, serotonin dependent emotional disease, etc., the progressive left would know a thing or two about junk science, wouldn't it. All dutifully peer reviewed positively throughout their continuing abuses.
No he was not. And he didn't falsify.
A National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program was established in 1986 to deal with many such adverse events.
A growing corpus of evidence points to the danger of combining mumps, and measles, and rubella vaxxes in one mixture; it appears each of the three targeting constituents are safer when administered separately in staggered schedule.
"The series of articles launched Wednesday are investigative journalism, not results of a clinical study. The writer, Brian Deer, said Wakefield "chiseled" the data before him, "falsifying medical histories of children and essentially concocting a picture, which was the picture he was contracted to find by lawyers hoping to sue vaccine manufacturers and to create a vaccine scare.
According to BMJ, Wakefield received more than 435,000 pounds ($674,000) from the lawyers. Godlee said the study shows that of the 12 cases Wakefield examined in his paper, five showed developmental problems before receiving the MMR vaccine and three never had autism."
Payola. He was PAID to falsify research that not even he can replicate, that fails the scientific method, fails peer review and is blatantly untrue.
To this day, nobody has proven a link between autism and vaccinations. Wake me up if and when that changes. Until that happens, it's just a dumb conspiracy theory, but this one kills people.
Based on the information publicly provided by Dr. Thompson, which is now being extensively reviewed by a U.S. court, MMR isn't actually safe, and it does cause autism.
"It's not my opinion alone that MMR vaccine, or many vaccines, are associated causally with autism. It is the opinion of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, and it is the opinion of senior scientists at the CDC as well, as of many, many, many thousands of parents who have experienced this injury first hand in their own children."
11. you are linking to natural news which is a anti-vax conspiracy site
2. wakefiled and Thomson have been dedunked
3. continuing a lie, is still a lie
meanwhile there is no CNN coverup (the op)
meanwhile there is no CDC coverup
meanwhile someone CLAIMING to be a "William Thompson member of CDC" is saying this
meanwhile a NON_MEDICAL guy named hooker is CONING YOU
to people who are familiar with the anti-vaccine movement, Hooker and Wakefield are household names. Wakefield has become famous for his scientific fraudulence
_"Co-Author of Lancet MMR-Autism Study Exonerated on All Charges of Professional Misconduct"_
"Dr. John Walker-Smith, considered the father of pediatric gastroenterology, has today been restored to his much-deserved reputation of high esteem. His appeal of the U.K. General Medical Council’s 2010 decision to remove his license for serious professional misconduct has been quashed in its entirety. This decision raises questions about the validity of the 2010 GMC proceeding in general.
"The GMC proceeding was a multi-year, multi-million dollar prosecution against Drs. Wakefield, Walker-Smith, and Murch. It related to a controversial 1998 study published in The Lancet suggesting a possible link between autism, the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine and bowel disease. Based on the GMC prosecution, both Drs. Walker-Smith and Wakefield lost their licenses to practice and the Lancet article was officially retracted. The GMC alleged that the physician-authors had failed to obtain necessary ethical clearances and that they had subjected the twelve children in the study to unnecessary medical procedures.
"Justice Mitting, reviewing Dr. Walker-Smith’s appeal in the High Court of Justice, Queen’s Bench Division, Administrative Court, found that the GMC’s conclusions were “based on inadequate and superficial reasoning” and that “the finding of serious professional misconduct and the sanction of erasure are both quashed.” See full text of the decision.
"Dr. Walker-Smith’s professional insurance coverage paid for his appeal; Dr. Wakefield’s insurance carrier would not.
"Dr. Wakefield has recently filed a defamation lawsuit in Texas against the British Medical Journal, Dr. Fiona Godlee, Editor-in-Chief, and journalist Brian Deer, who instigated the GMC prosecution. His lawsuit alleges that the defendants knowingly or recklessly engaged in fraudulent misrepresentations about 1998 Lancet study. While far from decisive, the Mitting ruling bodes well for Dr. Wakefield’s defamation action."
