Louisa Glasson:  I thought we might have a measles epidemic on our hands .
Dr Martin Ellingham: There 's not much chance of that . Almost all the children I 've seen have been jabbed for MMR . There 's only two or three mothers left in the village who haven't seen reason .
Louisa Glasson: Maybe they 're scared .
Dr Martin Ellingham: What are they scared of ?
Louisa Glasson: Well there 's autism .
Dr Martin Ellingham: No , there is n't .
Louisa Glasson: Martin , a friend of mine took her son to the doctor . He was nearly _ two _ , perfectly healthy , they gave him the jab , and he changed overnight . Just shut down completely .
Dr Martin Ellingham: Because of the MMR vaccine ?
Louisa Glasson: That 's what she thinks .
Dr Martin Ellingham: Is she very stupid ?
Louisa Glasson: Look , it stands to reason that giving a child three viruses at the same time must increase their chance of some kind of reaction .
Dr Martin Ellingham: It stands to reason ?
Louisa Glasson: Martin , I have read about the studies linking MMR to bowel disease .
Dr Martin Ellingham: There was one so - called " study " but that 's been refuted by people who actually know what they 're talking about . And the hysteria that 's stopped people giving their children the MMR vaccine has actually caused an increase in cases of measles , which is a horrible disease .
Louisa Glasson: Thank you , Doctor .
