Anti-vaccine post banned

A FACEBOOK advert has been banned for claiming all vaccinations could cause children’s deaths.

The post by US group Stop Mandatory Vaccination also said that doctors dismiss fatalities as sudden infant death syndrome.

An image of a sleeping baby was captioned: “2-month old dies 48 hours after 8 vaccines”.

The Advertising Standards Authority upheld a complaint that it could not be substantiated and was likely to cause distress.
