Who was he?

He's a former british Doctor who became an anti-vaccine activist. He was a gastroenterologist until he was struck off the UK medical register for unethical behavior, misconduct, and fraud.

Contributions...?

- In 1988 he authored a research paper claiming there was a link between measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine, and autism and bowel disease. Thanks to his paper there was a decrease in vaccination rates in the US, UK, and Ireland. Funny enough, that led to a rise in measles and mumps resulting in serious illnesses and deaths.
