Dr Wakefield has recently had his theory turned into a documentary. I fear the damage he has caused will be replicated. Remember his study covered TWELVE patients. He is the director of the documentary - Vaxxed.
As cruel as it is for parents (on the basis of a debunked claim) not to vaccinate their kids, it is also cruel to see parents beating themselves up over the belief that protecting their kids from disease caused their kids to be autistic.
The damage done by Dr Wakefield is immense.
