Why are there many vaccinated kids in measles outbreaks?
<p>In 1998, a team of researchers in Great Britain published a study examining the relationship between the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine and autism. Or, as <a href="https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140673697110960/fulltext" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">the study paper</a> put it, “We identified associated gastrointestinal disease and developmental regression in a group of previously normal children, which was generally associated in time with possible environmental triggers.” One of those triggers was the MMR vaccine.</p>
<p>If you clicked on the link to the paper, you might have noticed the paper is retracted. It was retracted because <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2831678/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">it was found to be fraudulent</a>, <a href="https://briandeer.com/mmr/lancet-summary.htm" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">filled with inaccuracies and with questionable ethics practices</a>. Nevertheless, the damage was done. Anti-vaccine organizations and activists showcased the study and its authors as evidence that vaccines cause autism.</p>
