Just back from hospital where there is a massive sign by the entrance warning about... not mpox but measles. Measles ffs. A disease we vanquished decades ago but is now back thanks to anti-vaxxers.

measles was on the verege of eradication until andrew wakefield turned up with his crackpot theories about mmr vaccine. it became an interweb movement and those getting their children vaxxed dropped significantly, and measles made a comeback

how many have died is irrelevant. it recovered purely because of quack science and fools who believe it

Oh, "crackpot theories" ?

So anyone who questions a medication must be a "crackpot"?

By the way, I'm not saying Wakefield is right or wrong, I don't know.

But slurring of people who questioned a medication, and in this example I'm about to give, they happened to be a couple of doctors, resulted in a libel case.

These two doctors questioned the efficacy of statins, and the Mail On Sunday went after them labelling them "statin deniers" and suggesting that they had cost lives.

The Mail On Sunday lost the case and had to pay substantial damages. And interestingly one of the MoS articles had featured a quote from the then Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who apparently accused the doctors of spreading "pernicious lies".

So the media, Big Pharma and Hancock, all in bed with each other, did this ever happen again?

And this what the judge had to say about the Mail on Sunday in his summing up:

“There is perhaps a palpable irony in the fact the Defendants, in Articles that so roundly denounced those alleged to be the purveyors of misinformation, so seriously misinformed their own readers.”

you are inventing things unsaid

i didnt say 'anyone who questions a theory is a crackpot'. you did. i said wakefields were, and its true

i didnt slur him-he was proved to be wrong. you have ignored what i said and posted what you want to say

'big pharma' is big bollox. i recommend 'bad science' by grauniad science writer ben goldacre for those who see it that way

Er, no I didn't, I said questions a medication, not a theory.

So who proved Wakefield wrong? A court of law?

Move to Dulwich Village. It's much, much, much more unlikely catching it there. However, I do like monkey nuts. They are well roasted, crunchy and very tasty.
