Jayne Donegan's at it again banging the anti-vaccine drum https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/news ... -t26r0fmjn
She has held a number of talks across Britain this year and has upcoming events in London, Leamington Spa and Southampton.
&
By the end of the talk, she has told them that the triple vaccine protecting children from measles, mumps and rubella is linked to autism and bowel disease.

Today's Times is having a well deserved go at Dr Donegan, there's also another article and also an editorial. Matt Hancock & GMC are on the case :D

Anyone remember the last time the GMC investigated JD?

The evidence of Dr Donegan is treated with great reserve. She has deeply held feelings on the risks of immunisation. She allowed this to over-rule her duty to provide objective unbiased opinion considering all the relevant facts including those which detract from her opinion.

Dr Donegan's report was based on no independent research, and most of the published papers cited by her in support of her views turned out either to support the contrary position or at least to give no support to her own.

I think this is the GMC's judgement:
The Panel were sure that at no stage did you allow any views that you held to overrule your duty to the court and to the litigants.

You demonstrated to the Panel that your reports did not derive from your deeply held views and your evidence supported this. You explained to the Panel that your approach in your report was to provide the court with a alternative view based on the material you produced in your references. That material was largely drawn from publications that were in fact in favour of immunisation.

It was clear from your evidence and the evidence of your witness that your aim is to direct parents to sources of information about immunisation and child health safety to help them to make informed choices.

You told us that there are many books by doctors and others in this and other countries who seriously question vaccination and they cite a lot of history, proofs and medical papers to support their arguments. You did not use any of those publications because you did not think that the Court would regard those as satisfactory support or references for your recommendations. You largely used what was available in refereed medical journals.

The Panel is sure that in the reports you provided you did not fail to be objective, independent and unbiased.

Accordingly, the Panel found that you are not guilty of serious professional misconduct.

So it's alright to be completely utterly wrong and incompetent. That's some very good Medical Counciling

f.ck me, that is a spectacularly ridiculous decision based on what they wrote. Was the panel populated exclusively by people who fall for 419 scams?

It's one thing, perhaps, to advise your patients if they approach you, although 100% misguidedly, it's another thing altogether to actively campaign against vaccines. From the Telegraph
Dr Jayne Donegan, a London-based homeopath who is also an NHS doctor, did not tell the undercover reporter not to vaccinate. But she expressed her view that “children should get measles”, and that for people who decide not to vaccinate their children it was "best not to discuss it” with other parents.

Odd how she doesn't reveal her meeting location in advance. Almost as if she's got something to hide.

If anyone finds out her Southampton meeting location, then do let me know.

Few people do. But what a wonderful world it would be if you all did.

But, enough wide-eyed pondering, back to the vaccine chat.

Just to ensure I’ve got everything clear.

Homeopathy Argument #1: Like cures like. Look ... vaccines! See told you. Homeopathy = vaccines. SCIENCE!!!!

Homeopathy Argument #2: Vaccines are bad because ... allopathy. SCIENCE!!!!
