Celebrity MMR
‘AFTER a story of biting arms, we now hear a tale of a shot in one.
| Three jabs or one? |
Or, rather, a non-shot, since the story in the Mirror is of how Charlie Sheen and his estranged wife, Denise Richards, rowed about giving their child the MMR jab.
Richards wanted their couples two-year-old son Sam to have the three-in-one injection for measles, mumps and rubella.
And Sheen, worried about its possible links to autism, did not.
A source says that the pair argued in front of medics to such a degree that one doctor refused to work with them.
And this played a part in Denise and Charlies separation, – earlier this month it was announced that they were divorcing.
Sad for them, indeed, and just rotten for baby Sam, but at last it seems the MMR debate has a much-needed celebrity face.
And that can only be a good and positive thing…
Paul Sorene is the Anorak’
