to some youtube poster who just flatly denies statements without justifying anything he says.
the pharmaceutical companies means absolutely nothing. The fact is that this case was given legal aid for years costing the tax payers millions of pounds. It was about to reach its natural conclusion when the plug was pulled. Privately funded cases in the states and japan have however gone to court and have merited in the eyes of the court compensation paid from the drug companies to the families of the affected children. Excuse me if I trust the rulings of two separate countries legal systems
oh wait!! I’m sorry, I thought the theory was that since vaccine strain measles virus was found in the intestines of vaccine damaged children, way after it should have died according to the manufacturers, this allowed certain particles which would never normally get into the bloodstream through, these were found to be able to move across the blood-brain barrier. Its pretty easy to find this stuff out. The fact that any paper pertaining to MMR which didn’t mention autism was held aloft by
@ravemonk No, this was never shown in the slightest way at all. There is no new autism, and there has been no scientifically accepted link between MMR and autism.
You’re just wrong. You’re just plain wrong.
Goldacre is wrong. Wakefield is up against the GMC for unethical behaviour ie conflict of interest, not for his publication in the Lancet.
I’ll trade an erradication of houping couff/ polio/ flue (to an extent) for a minor (not even proven) chance for my kid to get autism.
The first three are killers of LOTS of children. That we don’t really consider them such is thanks to the immunisation programs.
A worldwide goverment conspiracy is quite likely I agree, but ill be darned if anyone figures it out
no, look at the epidemiology. A new type of autism where children developing normally and then regressed into autism started at the time the MMR jab was introduced. All the children thought to be damaged by the vaccine have other symptoms in common such as irritable bowel syndrome and susceptibility to ear infections. Japan and America have both paid out in court cases where it was established that there is a link between MMR and autism.
I’m convinced that the news media has an agenda. An agenda which is given to them by the ruling elite. Like lapdogs they do as they’re told. Whether that is to confuse, scare, annoy, anger, befuddle, bore, incite etc etc. What ever they’re told to do you can bet that the ultimate aim is to keep us like good little helpless sheep.
Ha ha. Stapleton’s a tit isnt he?
Why were the most of those idiots protesting on the behalf of Andrew Wakefield women?
in 15 mins 200 emailed us about the vaccine 182 shown concern the other 18 shown they had more then 1 brain cell, but we wont bring up anything they said coz u mite turn over if u belived what they said and that there is no harm (the truth)
haha they would rather break continuous news of Britons debt something weve known about for years then do a proper story on the italian earthquake witch gets a small mention in a yellow bar
DON’T WATCH THIS!!!
…on your laptop whilst drinking, anything liquid.
“Pointless repeating a quote from the youtube vid above and adding a lol to signify my appreciation for it..”
lol
God, that MMR story just felt so satisfactory, like a great big orgasm. I have autism, and even I just keep screaming at people to vaccinate their kids.
3:01
i can never watch the news without being sick into my own eyes at how much bullshit they spew.. i leave it a few weeks or so for Brooker to tell me whats happened
I love the scientist in this show
7:14 Hahaha I guess Wayne Coyne was there!
“1 billion and…er loads” hahaha
1 billion… and loads
haha
“one billion and uh…pff, loads” Ha!
I like Ben Goldacre, but the more I see him on TV the more sure I am that he is Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s long-lost brother.
Plus he’s bloody funny of course
