Jenny McCarthy AKA "Tailgunner Jenny" is an ironically named American celebrity who has, since around 2005, become the poster model for the anti-vaccination movement.
As a medical pundit, she is a sincere, hard-working and very upset mother who has the IQ of soap and is not good at joined-up thinking. This sincere, deeply-held wrongness leads to tragedy all round.
Years later, it was revealed that her son had probably never had Autism to begin with but Landau-Kleffnor syndrome.[1]

Vaccine
Her involvement in publicly creating hysterics around vaccines began with her son, Evan. At first she opined that she was an indigo and her son was of the crystal persuasion,[2] but then she discovered the vaccine hysteria and latched on to that instead. She later claimed that her son's autism was caused by the mumps, measles, rubella vaccine but that it was cured through chelation therapy. She wrote a book Louder than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism and has appeared on Oprah and Larry King Live advocating quackery and marketing false hope. This celebrity advocacy of alternative treatments and vaccine hysteria has almost been a direct cause of many children becoming gravely ill due to the side-effects of alternative therapies and lack of vaccination. One has to wonder how many needless deaths of children she is responsible for.[3]
Despite it being revealed that her son never actually had Autism, Jenny will not completely back down from her position.
