und wem der "arme" Wakefield leid tut der kann ihm hier ein email schicken:

die mails werden gefiltert bevor sie auf der Gruppe erscheinen, zu schreiben was ich denke fällt also aus ;0)

Catherina, mag keinen Personenkult

Der völlig unseriöse W. wird von Impfgegner-Idioten zum Guru gemacht.

das Bild ist soch die Schau, oder? Wakefield spielt Luther *g*

Eigentlich müsste the Lancet das Paper jetzt zurückziehen (die Wissenschaft darin glaubt ja schon lange eigentlich keiner mehr). Wakefield sagt, das alles sei ihm nicht peinlich. Wenn das wirklich stimmt, dann ist er strunzdumm!

sehr ausführlich zum Thema Impfen und Autismus und Wakefield's sloppy science:

http://www.cispimmunize.org/fam/mmr/a_report.html

...O'Leary et al reported in testimony before the House Government Reform Committee on April 6, 2000, that evidence of measles virus genomic RNA encoding for F and H proteins was found in intestinal wall tissue specimens provided by Wakefield from 24 of 25 children with autism and 1 of 15 children without autism.185 No mention was made as to the genetic sequences of the viruses identified. Further methodologic details necessary for the scientific review of this report have not been published, and the information was not provided in response to a request. Several laboratories have investigated the possible persistence of measles virus in intestinal tissue in IBD.186,187 Iizuka et al188 identified the antigen reacting with the monoclonal antibody used by Wakefield et al179 and demonstrated that the antibody reacts to measles nucleocapsid antigen and to intestinal tissue in patients with Crohn's disease. Iizuka et al identified, isolated, and sequenced the protein in intestinal tissue specimens reacting with this monoclonal antibody and showed that the protein was of human, not measles virus, origin. Iizuka et al also identified the protein in increased amounts in patients with ulcerative colitis or noninflammatory colitis, compared with controls, and they found small numbers of cells containing this protein in esophagus, stomach, duodenum, and lung tissue specimens but not in liver, spleen, kidney, or heart tissue specimens. This group hypothesized that the "measles related antigen" could be the target of an autoantibody generated by measles through molecular mimicry. In a subsequent report, they were unable to detect cross-reacting antibodies to the measles related antigen detected in serum samples from 15 patients with Crohn's disease, 15 with ulcerative colitis, and 15 controls, which does not support the autoimmunity hypothesis.189 Other laboratories were also unable to identify measles antigens in intestinal wall tissue specimens from patients with IBD using sensitive immunohistochemical staining and PCR and reverse-transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) assays.187,190-194 Chadwick et al,195 working with Wakefield et al, were unable to detect measles virus in intestinal tissue specimens from patients with IBD using PCR assay. Afzal et al186 recently reviewed published studies and concluded that the available data indicate the absence of measles virus in tissue specimens from patients with IBD. However, the studies by Iizuka et al do not resolve the findings of Katamaya et al,149 who found measles nucleoprotein mRNA in 8% to 20% of brain, lung, liver, spleen, and kidney tissue specimens obtained at autopsy using RT-PCR assay. These individuals had no known gastrointestinal or neurologic disorders reported, indicating that measles virus may persist in unaffected tissue. If so, detection of portions of the virus in tissue may be unrelated to local disease. The panel learned of additional unpublished studies by Ward et al (B. Ward, MD, personal communication, June 12 and December 18, 2000) which are purported to reveal the presence of specific transcripts for the nucleocapsid gene of measles as well as another incompletely characterized paramyxovirus in a small number of patients with IBD and a control using degenerate primers and RT-PCR assay. No evidence was found for any other measles gene transcripts. The findings of measles nucleocapsid genomic RNA in affected tissue specimens from patients with otosclerosis196 or Paget's disease197,198 suggests the possibility that nucleocapsid genomic RNA may persist after paramyxovirus infections in some tissues.

Wakefield sagt, das alles sei ihm nicht peinlich. Wenn das wirklich stimmt, dann ist er strunzdumm!

So isses - wie mit all diesem verlogenen Pack.

übrigens ist Wakefield nicht der einzige, der plötzlich "vergisst" wo seine finanziellen Interessen liegen:

wo wir gerade bei Wakefield waren, der vergessen hatte seine Geldquelle anzugeben, habe ich mir den neusten Artikel der Geiers zu Gemüte geführt...

http://www.medscimonit.com/medscimo...ary&id=3986

Man bemerke, beide Geiers haben alles gemacht, bloß Geld hat keiner besorgt für die Studie. Haben die bestimmt aus ihrem Taschengeld bezahlt...und woher bekommt zum Beispiel David Geier sein Taschengeld? Ach gukkemal - der berät Anwälte in bei Klagen gegen Impfstoffhersteller:

http://trw.umbc.edu/articles/2804

Da trifft es sich dann ja gut, dass die Anwälte auf eine Menge Artikel ihres Beraters als "Beweisstücke" zurückgreifen können.

Ein Schelm wer Böses dabei denkt oder gar Vorsatz vermutet. Was die Geiers mit Wakefield gemeinsam haben ist nicht nur ihre Verschwiegenheit wenn es um ihre Geldquellen in der Klageindustrie geht, sondern auch ihre schlampige, unaufrichtige Wissenschaft:

"It was not surprising that the Cardiff study attracted little substantial coverage in the British press this week (though its headline claims were cursorily reported). The latest study published by Mark and David Geier (5) claiming that MMR may be a factor in up to 15 percent of cases of autism and other neuro-developmental disorders was reported, first in the GP magazine Pulse on 19 May, then on the BBC News website on 19 May and in the Daily Mail on Tuesday 20 May. These reports followed an earlier account of the Geiers' researches, by the veteran anti-immunisation reporter Rosie Waterhouse, in the Daily Telegraph on 7 April.

Mark Geier is a genetic counsellor in Maryland, USA; his son David is a graduate student who runs MedCon, a firm providing advice to families pursuing litigation claims over alleged vaccine injury. Though neither has any academic or professional expertise in any discipline relevant to immunisation, the Geiers feature prominently in the conferences and websites of autism parents and other anti-immunisation groups in the USA.

The paper reported in the Telegraph in April was published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons (6). This sounds impressive, but turns out to be the recently relabelled Medical Sentinel, organ of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, a medical fundamentalist faction based in Tucson, Arizona, distinguished by its commitment to the practice of private medicine and its hostility to immunisation. The Geiers' latest paper is published in International Pediatrics, another apparently impressive title; this one is the house journal of the Miami Children's Hospital.

In response to the paper in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons, which focused on the alleged dangers of vaccines containing the mercury-based preservative thiomersal (known as thimerosal in the USA), the American Academy of Pediatrics published a detailed critique (7). The most important defect of this article - shared by the International Pediatrics article - is its reliance on data gathered by the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS; this is analogous to the 'yellow card' reporting system in Britain).

This is a passive surveillance system that relies on professionals and parents reporting what they suspect may be adverse reactions to vaccines. Such reports may represent true adverse events, coincidences or mistakes: 'inherent limits of VAERS include incomplete reporting, lack of verification of diagnoses, and lack of data on people who were immunised and did not report problems'. Such data are useful for flagging up possible problems and raising questions for further investigation; they can be legitimately used for 'hypothesis generation' but not for 'hypothesis proving'.

In the judgement of the AAP, the Geiers 'failed to acknowledge the inherent limitations of the VAERS database when drawing conclusions of adverse event associations contained in this report and in their other publications'. The AAP commentary includes a 15-point catalogue of further statistical flaws, errors and omissions in the JAPS paper. "

Wakefield ist der Wissenschaftsbetrüger,der daherlügt,daß die Masernimpfung Autismus verursache: ein bezahlter Gangster.
