Website warned over MMR claims
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-19163717
A website offering parents advice on vaccines has been ordered to remove information about the MMR jab after claiming it could be linked to autism.
Babyjabs.co.uk said the three-in-one jab may be causing "up to 10%" of autism in children in the UK.
But the Advertising Standards Authority ruled the claim was misleading and must not appear again, after getting a complaint.
The website was also told not to repeat other claims it made about MMR.
