Dr. Andrew Wakefield<\/strong>, the one who first set the MMR vaccination scare<\/strong> has been found guilty by the General Medical Council<\/strong> because of serious professional misconduct over his research. The GMC found that the research is \u201cunethical\u201d<\/strong> since it states that the vaccine can be linked to serious bowel disorders<\/strong> and autism,<\/strong> thus many people were alarmed by it.<\/p>\n The research led by Wakefield was considered as irresponsible since it involved children within the vulnerable age. Dr Wakefield, who was working at London’s Royal Free Hospital <\/strong>as a gastroenterologist at the time, did not have the ethical approval or relevant qualifications for such tests, as stated by the GMC. He also \u201cshowed a callous disregard\u201d <\/em>because during his son\u2019s birthday, he took blood samples from children but failed to declare a conflict of interest, wherein he had received \u00a350,000 to carry out research on behalf of parents who suspected that MMR could lead to autism.<\/p>\n “The panel concluded that it is the only sanction that is appropriate to protect patients and is in the wider public interest, including the maintenance of public trust and confidence in the profession, and is proportionate to the serious and wide-ranging findings made against him.”<\/em> As stated by Dr. Surendra Kumar<\/strong>, the chairman of GMC.<\/p>\n Wakefield was given 28 days to appeal to what was accused to him. \u201cUnfound\u201d and \u201cunjust\u201d were the things that he said for what was charged against him. “Efforts to discredit and silence me through the GMC process have provided a screen to shield the government from exposure on the MMR vaccine scandal.”<\/em> These were the things that Wakefield said while GMC announced its sanctions.<\/p>\n Related posts:<\/p>\n Dr. Andrew Wakefield, the one who first set the MMR vaccination scare has been found guilty by the General Medical Council because of serious professional misconduct over his research.
