Roy Green - Sat Feb 7 - Vaccinations

The concerns about an increase in the numbers of reported cases of measles. Has to do with the refusal by some parents to permit their children to be inoculated with the MMR vaccine. This still follows a 1990's study by Dr. Andrew Wakefield in the U.K. which claimed a link between MMR and autism in children. The study has officially been discredited, but still has supporters. Should vaccination be a legal requirement for all children? Guest: Dr. Jay Keystone. Infectious diseases specialist, Toronto General Hospital and professor of medicine, University of Toronto.
