Mmr And The Media
EDM number 815 in 2001-02, proposed by Peter Bradley on 06/02/2002.
That this House notes with concern the recent outbreaks of measles in London and the North East; further notes the often devastating consequences of measles, mumps and rubella for young children and their parents; condemns the irresponsible conduct of some sections of the press and media which have undermined public confidence in MMR either by sensationalising the doubts about its safety of a small minority of doctors or by cynically manufacturing a political controversy without regard for the consequences for public health; and urges parents to consider the almost unanimous medical advice from this country and the 90 others where MMR is routinely in use that the risk associated with the triple vaccination is vastly outweighed by the danger to their children and those of others of not having it.
This motion has been signed by a total of 102 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
