Washington DC -February 13: President Donald Trump is Robert F. Kennedy (+)
Despite the fact that the disease control and prevention center shows that there is no vaccine and autism, they try to conduct large -scale research to investigate possible connections between autism and child vaccines. Autism can lead to a controversial aory that connects autism to measles, flaws and rubella vaccines, which can lead to the public’s trust and lead to hesitation.
In the first and four centuries ago, the (previous) gastroenterologist Andrew Wakefield and small -scale studies by colleagues proposed a connection between MMR vaccines.
Wakefield et al. Lancet After receiving the MMR vaccination, we explained 12 children with or more. To eight out of 12 children, parents have connected the onset of behavioral symptoms to the vaccine. Wakefield and co -author hypothesized that after the MMR vaccine, the intestinal inflammation moved to the brain, causing damage reflected in autism symptoms.
This study was further reviewed retreat. It was a report for eight children who developed signs of autism and symptoms in a month after receiving the MMR vaccine. Without these small samples and controls, there was no way to know whether autism occurred at a larger level than it was expected.
In addition to the withdrawal, Wakefield’s medical license was canceled due to forged information.
Since then, many colleagues review studies have discussed the connection between autism and MMR vaccine. In 1999, researchers based in London did not find epidemiological evidence of the causality between autism and MMR vaccine. And the conclusion was repeatedly conducted in a study published over the next few years. Perhaps the biggest type was retrospective analyze It appeared in the 2002 New England Journal of Medicine. 537,000 Danish children participated and showed that the risk of autism was similar between those who received the MMR vaccine and those who did not. In addition, the Journal of the American Medical Association published a study, including the health record analysis of more than 95,000 children in 2015. About 2,000 children were classified as a risk of autism because of their brothers and sisters diagnosed with autism. This study confirmed that the MMR vaccine did not increase the risk of the MMR vaccine. Autism spectrum disorder.
The presence of all these evidence questions why the CDC wants to do other research. The CDC requested for opinions did not answer immediately. But perhaps we can guess why, by evaluating the views of the Minister of Health and Welfare, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CDC director David Weldon. Questions raised About the safety of the MMR vaccine. If confirmed, Weldon will strengthen the vaccine screen pick agenda that RFK JR. will pursue.
Weldon is A link Wakefield cited the controversial theory between MMR shots and autism.
Such vaccine Spain views are as follows: Concern In the public health community guardian Say. Messaging alone can increase the vaccine as a child. In order to explain, Wakefield’s false claims about the connection between MMR shots and autism in the UK were significantly reduced in the early 2000s after the false claims were posted in the media.
Not long after his work was exposed fraudWakefield has left a legacy of continuous legacy. todayIn the United States, vaccine hesitations are increasing again. There is a shaking vaccine range Contributed The current outbreak in Texas and New Mexico.
The mass vaccination program with a single or combination shot began in the 1960s and quickly suppressed the spread of measles in most developed countries, including the United States, which proclaimed measles in 2000. Also measles vaccine is “.Sterilization”This means that it prevents infection as well as disease. World Health Organization calculation At least 155 million lives have been saved over the past 50 years with the world’s leading vaccination efforts for measles and other systemic diseases.
On the surface, the government’s efficiency of ELON Musks aims to remove waste of institutions such as CDC. The cut has already been confused in CDC and other entities in HHS. But it seems wasteful for CDC to spend money on big research. Can’t these resources be used much more wisely elsewhere? For example, a study of testing vaccine hesitation and a method of strengthening the scope of vaccination.
