Zusammenfassung:[...]regarding this vaccine, there is other side effect that should be mentioned. Later the article named ‘Measles-mumps-rubella vaccination timing and autism among young African-American boys: a reanalysis of CDC data’, was also retracted due to concerns in the validity of the methods (17). In this line, it has been observed during one of the most important outbreaks of measles in California, a significant rate of children intentionally not-vaccinated against measles. Because of this, these children were at considerably higher risk of contracting the disease. (23) the design of new vaccines, particularly in the framework of personalized medicine, would require an important educational effort to mitigate the false assumptions attributed to vaccines by the antivaccines movements. [...]reversing this situation is necessary to promote an optimal communication to the society regarding the vaccine's benefit risk balance.
