[2011 Jan Letter BMJ] In response
to: Feature: Secrets of the MMR scare: How the case
against the MMR vaccine was fixed I am afraid the way in which Dr
Wakefield and his colleagues have been treated might as well have been
deliberately designed to discourage clinicians with medico-legal practices from
advising potential claimants, for fear of professional ruin. Added to the
Government's assault on Legal Aid by seeking to abolish public funding for
clinical negligence investigations and claims and the Jackson proposals
undermining the financial viability of conditional fee agreements, this sorry
episode could be seen as part of a wider long term agenda to render certain
professional and corporate vested interests inviolate.
The implication is that in the long term the medical
establishment and the Government wish to make it impossible for any potential
multi-party drug damage claim (or indeed any claim against NHS or private
hospitals or general practitioners ) to ever receive public funding or be able
to be pursued with a conditional fee agreement.
Is that what everyone really wants? A situation where no
pharmaceutical company or health provider can ever be challenged, when recent
history shows that the executives of some multi-national companies have been
engaging in far more reprehensible conduct than the accusations levelled at Dr
Wakefield.
