MMR Vaccination

[ilmostro]

Went to the doctors (yesterday) for my annual asthma check up.

Seems Measles is on the rise in Europe. Mostly Germany, Greece and Italy, hmmm wonder why those countries.

Anyway as I'm a old cunt, I never had the MMR vaccine (it was introduced in the U.K. in 1988, so after I left school)

So I basically said I was going to Le Mans in June (I'm not - probably) and the the gave me the vaccine.

The vaccine does not cause autism. (TBH I my case who could fucking tell anyway)

Might be something to look into before the summer hols.

Did you never have measles or mumps when you were a kid, or the separate vaccines? I never had MMR but either had the infections or separate jabs.

I had both mumps and measles. I don't have autism. Checkmate.

Aren't the anti-vaccination brigade swivel-eyed retards or is this an actual thing?

Autism is a spectrum - everyone is on that scale, just that some are further along than others..

And most on here are probably a fair way along it

Retards. Complete and utter retards.

Anti-vaxxers, Flat Earthers, Chem Trailers and all the rest of the morons holding back the progress of humanity should be rounded up and shot. I've fucking had it with the lot of them.

Retards. Complete and utter retards.

File in the same retard class that includes flat earthers, foil hat wearers, creationists , scientologists et al

Edit What Delphi said!!!! He beat me to it

OK I'm on point then, I lump all these categories together as well.

Add to that religioners and "engineers" (joke FFS )

Edit: I've used this picture loads of times over the last few years and only just realised that the switch is marked ON - ON

It turns out the Dr who wrote the paper linking MMR to Autism was given a bung of something like £500k and eventually struck off the general medical register

I had measles, that was it. Apart from asthma, I never got ill. I've only had 5 days off work in 25 years due to illness, and I still turned up to work on day 1, until they told me to fuck off!

That's because since he was struck off it's now Mr Who.

LOL - When I was at Uni, we had this discussion about teamwork or in fact our in ability to do it. We put this down to being engineers.

You know cough medicine has creosote in it?

I had measles, that was it.

I just wondered why an adult would need the MMR vacc if they've had either the disease or separate vaccinations in their childhood
