Wales Measles and now the rush for MMR - was this self inflicted ? 07.04.13

can you remember the raw,
when MMR were vaccinating,
a small out break of war,
as some refused educating.
now there regret,
it is a tragic lesson and not mild,
these parents have sweat,
its a unnecessary fear for the child.
can anything be learnt,
or will history repeat,
yes medical evidence needs to be earn t,
but just to object is not sweet.
go with the majority,
you can not beat the tide,
we don't have such a bad authority,
even if a little corrupt and snide.
today's news looms,
it is no doubt going to cut,
is there any truth about magic mushrooms,
from the controversial Dr David Nut.
we need to step back,
and deep breath,
always go with the proven medical track,
and be open to ideas that can teeth.

( i am sure i wrote a poem on when people were refusing MMR - seen as i write poems on most news story's. anyway it is now proven that this was all hype over a small cases that did scare and this how now led children being open to these infections. this is very sad. my advice - go with medical evidence and never refuse the common run of the mill treatment and prevention's. or have i got it wrong and there is still a massive risk when you are given MMR jab ? this is a link to the story i am rambling about - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-22048635) love my link with this story MMR and today's news on the NUT - brill.)

I did loads of research on the mmr vaccination when my daughter was born and came to the conclusion that the autism threat was a load of ****e, invented by a man who planned to sell the individual immunisations as he claimed these were safer. The fact that autism tends to become apparent around the time children recieve their mmr made him more believable.

I also researched the horrible effects measles has on young children, and to me there was no question, both my children received their mmr as soon as possible. I'm so glad now.

There is still a lot of controversy surrounding this MMR jab with respect to its possible side affects wrt autism.

Not sure why the Measles, Mumps and Hooping Cough innoculations cannot be given separately like they used to be.

[Kizzy]

Fair point, they were always used singularly, why the triple vaccine is preffered seeing as it caused such controversy I don't know.

Why didn't they get their children immunised in the first place? :-/

Many were in a Sports Hall
so it spread faster in the air.

The Parents heard of the Doctor on all media
who claimed the injection would cause Autism

I don't think I'd give it a second thought if I had a child, I'd immunise them.
