Abstract
La publicación del artículo de Wakefield et al. en The Lancet desencadenó una reacción de rechazo a la vacuna triple vírica, a pesar de que se trataba solo de una serie de casos y la asociación entre la vacunación y el autismo hubiera podido muy bien ser anecdótica. Sin embargo, más tarde se comprobó que tal asociación era espuria, debido no solo a sesgos ocultados sino también a alteraciones interesadas de los datos y a otros comportamientos impropios de dos de los autores que por ello fueron expulsados del colegio de médicos. Finalmente el artículo fue retirado de la revista. Este episodio invita a reflexionar sobre la credibilidad y la confianza que merecen las autoridades y los profesionales a la población, así como sobre los recelos que pueden plantearse cuando se producen potenciales conflictos de intereses entre los profesionales, la industria, las revistas y la población. Un aspecto de particular interés es el de las expectativas distorsionadas sobre las posibilidades de las intervenciones sanitarias, incluida la vacunación, especialmente respecto de la dimensión individual y la colectiva de la prevención.
The paper of Wakefield et al. in The Lancet, triggered a negative reaction to the MMR vaccine, even though it was just a series of cases and the association between vaccination and autism could well be anecdotal. However, it was found that this association was spurious, not only because of hidden biases but also to alterations of the data and other improper behavior of the two authors that they were expelled from medical council. Finally, the article was removed from the magazine. This episode invites to think about the credibility and trust in the authorities and professionals to the population, as well as the suspicions that may arise when there are potential conflicts of interest among professionals, industry magazines and the population. A special area of interest is on the distorted expectations of health interventions, including vaccination, particularly with regard to both individual and collective prevention.
