Andrew Wakefield And The Swansea Measles Outbreak

The Guardian has a well-written piece on the measles outbreak in South Wales. Here’s the introduction.

The Department of Health has dismissed claims by a former doctor who started a global scare about the MMR vaccine that officials were responsible for the outbreak of measles in south Wales.

C and I immunised all our children and we never regretted it.

As someone, who had measles as an adult, i wouldn’t want that to be inflicted on anybody.  I was also lucky in that I didn’t get any complications.

My thoughts now are that I hope the epidemic subsides and no-one suffers from catching measles.  I would suggest to Wakefield, that he shuts up, as otherwise, I think he might find himself in bigger trouble.
