Callous Disregard: Autism and Vaccines: The Truth Behind a Tragedy

* J. Wakefield* (Author)

IN UK - don't see it on Amazon.co.uk yet

*Conspiracy - or ruthless pragmatism? How the vaccine apparatchiks and

medical self-interest groups deal with dissent.

*The subject is autism; the suspect is childhood vaccines. This is the

account of how a doctor confronted first a disease, and then the medical

system that sought and still seeks to deny that disease, leaving

millions of children to suffer and a world at risk.

/ " Do not judge me too harshly Dr. Wakefield, but when I die I am taking

my son with me. You see, I?m all he has. I?m the only one who loves him. "

/- A mother?s plea in 1997

In 1995 Wakefield came to a fork in the road. As an academic

gastroenterologist at the Royal Free School of Medicine and the

University of London, Wakefield was presented with a professional

challenge and confronted by a moral choice. Previously normal children

were, according to their parents, regressing into autism and developing

intestinal problems - many parents blamed the MMR vaccine. Trusting in

his medical training, parental narrative, and above all, the instinct of

mothers for their children?s wellbeing, he chose the hard road.

Walk that road now, here; some already have - the parents of affected

children. Many will, either as parents or grandparents, as the worldwide

tsunami of childhood developmental disorders break hearts and bankrupts

educational and healthcare infrastructures.

Wakefield provides the facts, an explanation of the problem that

confronted him and his colleagues 15 years ago. He does this in a

detailed forensic analysis of the lies, obfuscation, cover ups, and the

dystopian science and medicine that panders to commercial interest at

the expense of your children.

*About Dr. Wakefield

*

Dr Wakefield, MB, BS, FRCS, FRCPath, is an academic

gastroenterologist. He received his medical degree from St. ?s

Hospital Medical School (part of the University of London) in 1981, one

of the third generation of his family to have studied medicine at that

teaching hospital.

He pursued a career in gastrointestinal surgery with a particular

interest in inflammatory bowel disease. He qualified as Fellow of the

Royal College of Surgeons in 1985 and in 1996 was awarded a Wellcome

Trust Traveling Fellowship to study small-intestinal transplantation in

Toronto, Canada. He was made a Fellow of the Royal College of

Pathologists in 2001. He has published over 130 original scientific

articles, book chapters, and invited scientific commentaries.

In the pursuit of possible links between childhood vaccines, intestinal

inflammation, and neurologic injury in children, Dr. Wakefield lost his

job in the Department of Medicine at London?s Royal Free Hospital, his

country, his career, and his medical license.

He is married to Carmel, a physician and a classical radio presenter.

They have four children, , Sam, Imogen, and Corin, and a black

mongrel called Bella.
