MMR @ 3years, safe for my autistic son???

Hayley S

Hi all. Just wana get some opinions on the MMR vaccine.

My son had his first dose at 12months old and I noticed a change in his behaviour straight away. He had started saying 'choo choo' (he loves Thomas the tank), clapping and doing the stars with his hands to 'twinkle twinkle'. Soon after his dose of MMR he stopped all that.

He will be 3years old in December and has only recently started to say 'choo choo' again and a few other words such as cat. he has come on so much which has taken a lot of work from myself, my husband, our families, speech thearpy and speech groups.

I'm frightened that if he has the 2nd dose of MMR it will stop all he's learnt and send him back to the beginning!! 

any feesback or thoughts or suggestions on this would be very much appreciated. I've looked into having the vaccinations done in 3 separate injections... Any thoughts on that either? 

Thanks you. Hayley xxx

    The panel's overall conclusion that Professor Walker-Smith was guilty of serious professional misconduct was flawed, in two respects: inadequate and superficial reasoning and, in a number of instances, a wrong conclusion.

    The end result is that the finding of serious professional misconduct and the sanction of erasure are both quashed.

    Judgment of Mr Justice Mitting1

    There is now no respectable body of opinion which supports his (Wakefield’s) hypothesis, that MMR vaccine and autism/enterocolitis are causally linked.

    Judgment of Mr Justice Mitting

    This essay places the acquittal at Appeal of Professor John Walker-Smith in the context of the conspiracy against the three doctors, Dr Andrew Wakefield, Dr Simon Murch and Professor Walker-Smith, who were tried in a General Medical Council (GMC) Fitness to Practice Hearing in London between 2007 and 2010. The hearing was the longest in GMC history and one of the longest quasi judicial hearings ever to take place in Britain.

    The essay asks two questions specifically, ‘Can justice ever be served in this case if Dr Andrew Wakefield, the principle victim of the conspiracy is denied an independent appeal?’ and ‘In the event of a professional tribunal such as the GMC acting with malice and intimacy of corruption, who might bring such powerful wrongdoers to justice?’

    Hi IntenseWorld,

    I know this post is 10 years old and probably will not get back to you, nevertheless, I wanted to hear your opinion if you would give MMR first dose to a 4 year autistic child?

    thanks

    I don't think bumping 10 year old anti-vax conspiracy nonsense is a helpful thing.
