- Bill Gates Says Link Between Autism And Vaccines Is An Absolute Lie That Has Killed Thousands Of Kids
In an interview with CNN's Sanjay Gupta, Bill Gates took a hard line against anti-vaccine efforts. He was promoting an effort to eradicate polio by 2012. You can read a transcript and watch the video here; Gupta's show is on tonight at 7:30 ET.
Gates: Well, Dr. Wakefield has been shown to have used absolutely fraudulent data. He had a financial interest in some lawsuits, he created a fake paper, the journal allowed it to run. All the other studies were done, showed no connection whatsoever again and again and again. So it's an absolute lie that has killed thousands of kids. Because the mothers who heard that lie, many of them didn't have their kids take either pertussis or measles vaccine, and their children are dead today. And so the people who go and engage in those anti-vaccine efforts -- you know, they, they kill children. It's a very sad thing, because these vaccines are important.

- Polio vaccines: extra government funding comes with strings attached| Sarah Boseley
Will David Cameron's idea to leverage extra funding for polio eradication work in a recession? David Cameron pledges £40m for polio vaccines at DavosBritain is to double the amount of money it contributes to the effort to stamp out polio, from £20m to £40m a year over the next two years – but unusually, it comes with strings attached.The increase in funding will only be paid on two conditions. The first is in keeping with the international development secretary's stick-and-carrot aid philosophy that says that incentives to better practice must be built in and results measured.Countries will have to strengthen their routine immunisation programmes – which means improving the work of clinics and outreach teams so that more children receive basic vaccinations, such as measles and DTP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis, or whooping cough).But the second condition is unusual. The extra £20m a year will only be paid if other countries or organisations put in more cash. Britain will pay £1 for every £5 contributed by others. The idea is to leverage extra funding from countries that might be thinking of cutting back on their aid spending in recession. If it works, it is a triumph. If it doesn't, the polio eradication effort will be short even of the British contribution.The idea is not original. The US pledged to contribute a third of the funding for the Global Fund to fight Aids, TB and Malaria, which put pressure on the EU and other donors to step up their contributions. It did have some of the desired effect, but that was before the financial downturn.AidPolioSarah Boseleyguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds
