he believes there is a connection but he's not sure of all the specifics.

LOL! What the hell does that mean? He did a study but "believes" there is a connection?

This has been followed up in numerous studies and there is NO relationship between MMR and autism.

Anyway, if you hadn't noticed, they aren't saying MMR causes autism anymore, now its thimerosal.

Your post implied that Wakefield had repudiated his earlier ideas. This is not true; Wakefield still stands by his earlier ideas about vaccinations being related to autism. He has found definite correlation but not causation -- yet. And at least he is honest enough to admit where he actually is in the process, instead of saying that he has all the answers when he really doesn't -- which is what most people on BOTH sides of this discussion do.
