US scientists back autism link to MMR

The measles virus has been found in the guts of children with
a form of autism, renewing fears over the safety of the MMR
jab.
American researchers have revealed that 85 per cent of
samples taken from autistic children with bowel disorders
contain the virus. The strain is the same as the one used in
the measles, mumps and rubella triple vaccine.
The findings will spark fresh concern about MMR, because
they back theories of a causal link between the jab, autism
and painful gut disorders
suffered by a number of autistic
children.
The study replicates findings made by the gastroenterologist
Dr Andrew Wakefield in 1998 and Prof John O'Leary, a
pathologist, in 2002.
Parents say their children were developing normally until
they had the MMR jab, given when a child is between 12- and
18-months-old. The children now suffer from regressive
autism.
One theory is that the virus passes through the gut, causing
damage, and into the bloodstream, from where it is able to
attack the brain.
More than 2,000 families claim that their children have
suffered damage but the Department of Health reiterated last
night that MMR is safe, a stance supported by the British
Medical Association and all the Royal Colleges. Last year
Government scientists failed to reproduce research results
by Dr Wakefield.
Research to be presented this week in Montreal, Canada,
provides fresh evidence that the measles virus
is present
in the guts of autistic children. Dr Stephen Walker, of the
Wake Forest University School of Medicine, North Carolina,
studied children with regressive autism and bowel disease.
"Of the handful of results we have in so far, all are
vaccine strain," he said.
