A.M. Vitals: U.K. Med Group Bans Wakefield; 'Unaffordable' Penalties May Hit Many Wall Street Journal (blog)

Action Against Autism-Vaccines Doc : Andrew Wakefield, the doctor found to have acted unethically while conducting the now-retracted research that purportedly linked autism to the MMR vaccine, will no longer be able to practice medicine in the U.K., the Associated Press reports . The country’s General Medical Council found him guilty of “serious professional misconduct,” said he’d abused his position as a doctor and “brought the medical profession into disrepute,” the A.P. says.

“Unaffordable” Penalties May Affect Many : A provision of the health-care overhaul law that penalizes businesses offering “unaffordable” health insurance — defined as costing employees 9.5% of their household income — may affect more companies than previously estimated, the New York Times reports . Citing a study by consultancy Mercer, the paper says one-third of companies subject to the bill’s big provisions have employees who might pay more than the 9.5% threshold, but a Mercer research director tells the NYT those companies are still more likely to offer coverage than not.
