Pediatrician Paul Thomas Has 15K Patients--and He Tells Them the Measles Vaccine Might Cause Autism

4. As a Doctor, it is Stunning He Would Promote an Idea without any Medical Research to Support it

There isn't a single legitimate medical research study, anywhere, that supports the irrational idea that the measles vaccine is in any way connected to autism. Rumors and folklore don't count. The doctor who published the bogus study in the UK that purportedly connected the measles vaccine with autism, Andrew Wakefield, not only retracted the study, he lost his medical license. It's understandable how parents of autistic children are desperate for answers. Sadly, this isn't one. Promoting this ignorance causes so much unnecessary harm. Someone should take a good look at Dr. Thomas' license for violating his oath to first do no harm, and putting children at risk.
