Zero = None: Dr wakefield is a british adult GI doc that took 8 autistic kids lawyers sent him, did various tests ; published a paper in 1998 proposing a link to the mmr.He was paid well ; stood to make millions on tests he patented.A trial in the us showed his research was faked ; no link of vaccines to autism. He lost his license.In the years since, the fake research is still cited by vaccine haters as valid.
