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 took both of my children to have the jab, and they're fine. Essentially it's one injection instead of three, and I know which I'd rather see - that's my kids only stabbed with a needle once, thank you very much.

I have heard the reports, and the study which linked MMR to autism was very inconclusive - it was a small number of children studied, and none of the other many studies that have taken place have shown any indication that MMR and autism are linked.

Yup.

I did consider that parents of autistic children's opinions were void, because they either wanted to find someone to blame.

OR

They didn't want to pass blame onto themselves, because they were the ones that decided to give their child the jab.



Thus I found periods of the show irrelevant because it would be highly influenced by opinion.

I had the MMR jab. I'm fairly normal.

Just finished watching this as well (was convieniently placed after Top Gear).

I was given the MMR when I was young.

I turned out OK.

To be honest, I think, from the evidence presented, MMR was just used as a scapegoat to blame for the autism problem.
