Anyone who is 'anti vaccine' is crazy and disturbed. I doubt that many of the diseases that are covered by vaccines will make a huge comeback (due to vaccines themselves!), but if they ever did these unvaccinated people have only theirselves to blame if their kids die.

Where our desire is got without content.

Than, by destruction, dwell in doubtful joy. "

Report Linking Vaccine to Autism 'Fraudulent,' Says British Medical Journal

It's sad, but it just shows you how masses of people can get caught up in an issue and ignore all other scientific information that presented.

"He made an extraordinary claim with no extraordinary evidence," said Offit, adding that the belief is so ingrained among many, including Wakefield himself. "The only way for this issue to be put to rest is when we have a clear cause of autism," said Offit.

David Amaral, Beneto Foundation chair and research director of The M.I.N.D. Institute at the University of California, Davis, agreed, adding that many in the scientific community have already let the paper go. The public should do the same, he said.

"What is most destructive in an episode such as this is the undermining of the public's confidence in the integrity of science," said Amaral. "Without replication, fraud and poorly conducted research will not stand the test of time."
