I have been described as a fraud, a charlatan, and worse, but I stand by my work and the questions I have raised about vaccine safety.

— Andrew Wakefield

Andrew Wakefield's work has had a significant impact on, just not me, but millions of people around the world.

For all the right reasons, I might add.

I, like so many others, no longer believe any vaccine is either safe or effective.

No vaccine, at any time in history, has worked

In short, Andrew is a British former physician and researcher who became a "controversial" figure due to his work on vaccines, particularly the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) jab.

In the late 1990s, his Lancet paper suggested a possible link between the MMR vaccine and autism in children, based on a small study, arguing that the combined vaccine could overwhelm young immune systems, pushing for separate shots instead.

It is important to note that the paper did not conclude that the jab causes autism. It concluded that "further research is needed".

However, our study is preliminary, and further research is needed to confirm these findings and to explore the mechanisms involved.

Further research is needed.

Nothing unreasonable about that.

Except that, well, Andrew's career and personal life were utterly destroyed by the pharmaceutical industry and mainstream media.

Speaking of mainstream media, a pharmaceutical mouthpiece journalist called Brian Deer had an axe to grind and decided to go after Andrew.

And succeeded.

The frequently repeated establishment narrative, courtesy of Brian, claims that Andrew's paper was fraudulent.

Of course, the paper was not fraudulent, but Brian's credibility was (and still is), particularly because he was (indirectly) paid by Merck who (directly) paid the medical journal that targeted Andrew.
