We have another outbreak of measles over here in the British Isles, this time in Wales, and this time the press is backpedalling furiously to distance itself from its own headlines of a decade ago warning parents that measles-mumps-rubella (MMR ) triple shot may cause autism.
Even Jeremy Paxman, the acerbic, takes-no-prisoners host of the BBC’s flagship current affairs programme Newsnight, has silenced any voices of dissent. On two programs, he featured a panel entirely composed of pro-vaccine ‘experts’ and spent most of the time ranting about why we ought to have compulsory vaccination.

If I were Jeremy Paxman, and I had someone from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization in front of me, here’s are the top six questions I’d want answers to:
Recently we had dinner with friends of ours whose son, now 15, developed autism after getting the MMR. At one point the husband leaned over to me and asked the question I’d dreaded all evening: ‘Have you covered anything lately about the MMR lately?’
I had to tell him that, yes, we had. We’d just published the contents of those secret documents showing that in 1981, the government had extensive information about serious adverse reactions to the MMR vaccine, but kept all this from parents and pressed ahead with the vaccine’s release seven years later. And continued to keep continued revelations about vaccine dangers hidden.
I kept wondering how he felt when he heard that news – how I’d feel if I knew that a decision I’d made based on false information from the government and the medical profession had destroyed my child’s life.
In that case, the only question that would matter was just this, and I’d level it not only at the government but also newspapers like the Guardian, which was caught just a few years ago taking down information on its website that criticized the vaccine: ‘At what point is anyone going to begin telling me the truth?’
