Abstract

The evidence to support the continued use of MMR vaccine in its combined form is strong and compelling (Taylor et al, 1999; Patya et al, 2000). The case against is weak, based on small studies and inconclusive results (Wakefield et al, 1998; Montgomery et al, 1999). However, they form two sides of an ongoing argument as to whether MMR vaccine is linked to autism.
