An Evening with Dr. Andrew Wakefield
Join us for:
- a recorded Zoom Presentation
- a discussion of the Measles outbreak, the MMR vaccine and Minnesota Back to School propaganda
Advance Registration is requested. If you have questions for Dr. Wakefield in advance of the event, please include them in the designated field below.
Dr. Wakefield will speak on measles, the MMR vaccine, and the current fearmongering about outbreaks.
Dr. Andrew Wakefield first drew widespread attention for his 1998 Lancet study in which he identified a novel inflammatory bowel disease. The paper suggested a link between the MMR vaccine, intestinal inflammation, and neurological injury in children. But Dr. Wakefield’s pursuit of the truth cost him his job in the Department of Medicine at London's Royal Free Hospital, along with his country, career, fellowships, and medical license. He has since been proven right.
Wakefield is now an award-winning filmmaker. His first documentary, Who Killed Alex Spourdalakis?, made American legal history by changing the outcome of a case of alleged murder. He produced, directed and co-wrote VAXXED, a CDC whistleblower story confirming the MMR vaccine-autism link, and one of the top US documentary features of 2016. His documentary “1986: The Act” broke new ground in detailing the passage of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Wakefield is also the director of his first major narrative feature, Protocol 7, co-written with Terry Rossio. He wrote the national bestselling book “Callous Disregard” and has just released his latest bestseller – “The Bequest”.
With the start of the school year coming up, you’ll want to hear Dr. Wakefield reveal facts that can help you to counter misinformation.
