How a zealot’s word led us astray on autism

Yeraze — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 18:37:06 +0000

Found this on MSNBC, and it’s probably the most accurate writeup I’ve seen on the recent retraction of the flawed MMR-Autism paper.

Why did The Lancet finally act? Because the British board that licenses doctors recently concluded that Wakefield had “shown callous disregard” for the children in his study and had “abused his position of trust” in doing his research. In language I have almost never seen from a disciplinary body, the General Medical Council added that Wakefield acted “dishonestly,” was “misleading” and “irresponsible” in the way he described the findings of his tiny study about the danger of MMR vaccine in The Lancet.

Also, what I’m almost certain will happen is addressed:

Some will try to portray Wakefield as a martyr, sacrificed for the profits pharmaceutical companies make from vaccines. But the profit from childhood vaccination has always been a very small part of Big Pharma’s big profits. The companies still in the childhood vaccine business generally stay there from a sense of duty to the public health not greed.

Wakefield is no martyr. He is a scientist who would not give up on his theory no matter how much evidence accumulated that vaccines are not linked to autism. And that makes him guilty of letting his zealotry blind him to the harm avoiding effective vaccines did to many vulnerable children.
