The Lancet Recants Study Linking Autism To Vaccine
JamJam writes "The Lancet, a major British medical journal, has retracted a flawed study linking the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine to autism and bowel disease. British surgeon and medical researcher Andrew Wakefield and his colleagues originally released their study in 1998. Since then 10 of Wakefield's 13 co-authors have renounced the study's conclusions and The Lancet has said it should never have published the research. Wakefield now faces being stripped of his right to practice medicine in Britain. The vaccine-autism debate should now end."
Since when have facts ever got in the way of a 'good' conspiracy theory?
There was one once, but they covered it up, I swear it.
...I for one am waiting to see what Jenny McCarthy has to say about this.
or else!
You believe that the H1N1 vaccine gives people the swing flu...
Better the Swing Flu than Flamenco Fever, baby!
