Den brittiska forskaren Andrew Wakefield som redan i 90- talet föreslog att Autism kan vara länkad till vaccination sprutor har även själv kritiserat forsknings institutet i Minnesota,USA för att inte har gjort en allvarlig undersökning. Nu jobbar han med Minnesota's Somalier och de har välkomnat hans assistans.

Minnesota Somalis worried about autism rates among their children recently invited controversial British researcher Andrew Wakefield to Minneapolis to talk to their community.
At a Somali community meeting in Minneapolis, Wakefield asked his audience to participate in a study. He told about a hundred people gathered at a Somali-owned restaurant that they could help find the cause of autism.
"It is solvable, it has a cause, it had a beginning and it must have an end," Wakefield said. "We cannot accept the damage that is being done to all of these children. It is completely unacceptable and the suffering you're going through."
Wakefield published a paper in the late 1990s theorizing a link between autism and the measles, mumps and rubella vaccinations. Kids with autism often have trouble with communication, interaction, and touch and doctors don't know what causes the condition.
Vi kan även anta att Minnesota inte skiljer sig så mycket i väderförhållanden än Sverige.
