"MMR Debate"

Having seen the evidence presented to me in one go, by the BBC programme just gone by, what are your views on the MMR debate? Atleast it makes a change from "No m8 Godd don't not exist".

Do you have a child who you gave the triple vaccine?

Would you liked to have/not have had the jab?

Personally, I understand why my parents gave me the triple jab and I don't mind at all. Based on the evidence of tonights show, there is far more logical evidence in favour of no relation, than that of some relation to autism. Being ever the rationalist I am, I can't understand why people shop blind faith in the most limited of "proof".

However, if there are any doubts at all which are feeseable, then surely for a few extra pounds, it's better to be safe than sorry.

I know, still there was a bit of point in replying.

My old next door neighbours and best friends had the american side of their family fly over. One of the guys contracted German Measles (Rubella) whilst over here. Not nice. But it shows there's a neccesity for the jabs.

I was given the MMR.

I've had the Measles and Rubella.

It's a load of rubbish.

I wasn't having a go at you ... just the issue in general.
Seems such a brash, unfounded, ridiculous thing to be linking together.

That's what I thought, but I was sure there'd be someone on here who would disagree...

...Meh.

Autotrader jism?

Eww.

On the flipside, you may just be more likely to "catch" autism.

Crossbob.

Not much of a debate, is it?
The link is non-existant. It was an idiotic suggestion in the first place.

Had it as a kid, and again recently. I'm well protected now.

I had the jab back in September.

No harm done yet... ;-)
