SERIOUS concerns have been raised about a key study cited by Dr Andrew Wakefield and campaigners as crucial evidence that the MMR vaccine causes autism in children. The High Court in London has requested that the Irish courts order Professor John O'Leary, the Dublin pathologist who carried out the study, to hand over all the raw data so it can be re- examined by experts.
It follows claims made in the High Court of anomalies in O'Leary's laboratory reports on samples from hundreds of autistic children who are allegedly victims of the MMR vaccine."
