CNN breaking news re: MMR & Autism
Just got this in my email:
-- Medical journal Lancet fully retracts 1998 study linking MMR vaccine to autism, citing "incorrect" elements of research.
Full article:
(CNN) -- The medical journal The Lancet on Tuesday retracted a controversial 1998 paper that linked the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine to autism.
The study linked autism with the MMR vaccine. The research had been discredited subsequently.
Last week, the study's lead author Dr Andrew Wakefield was found to have acted unethically in conducting the research.
