Jenny McCarthy Eats Crow
February 27th 2010 16:23
Since her son was diagnosed with autism, Jenny McCarthy has been on a crusade to prove that childhood immunization were the cause. Now Jenny is reversing her position about the immunization. This comes as her son now has been diagnosed as never having had autism.
From the article:
A new article in Time magazine — which Jenny was interviewed for — suggests Evan suffers from Landau-Kleffner syndrome, “a rare childhood neurological disorder that can also result in speech impairment and possible long-term neurological damage.”
Then came the crow supper:
...she is also reversing her initial position that the MMR shots caused Evan’s autism. Jenny says she wants vaccinations better researched — rather than getting rid of them altogether. And though her son may never have had autism, Jenny insists, “I’ll continue to be the voice” of the disorder.
Celebrities often promote causes that they want us to believe, no matter how many times they are proven wrong. When they go on a health crusade that can possibly do more harm than good, we need to draw the line and question their research. Although the mis-diagnosis should be blamed for not giving the child the proper care he needed, saying it was due to immunization could be very harmful. Especially to parents who believe it and avoid childhood immunizations that can prevent some major deadly diseases.
Celebrities should do what they do best, and that is acting and entertaining. They should leave their causes at home and to themselves. They tend to speak for sponsors or stupidity!
