I know MMR again! Advice needed

[Tarynsmummy]

Yeah I know this seems to be a never ending topic of discussion, but I am a little confused as what to do.
My dd is almost 5 and has not had the MMR, I am now starting to worry about her contracting measles- as she starts school in sept and who knows what she will get from other kids. I have read up on a lot of info, and one of the reasons why I didn't let her have it when she was 15 months was because of the risk of autism. I thought there was a lot of confusion about it and decided to leave it a while.
So, I have waited, my gp as stopped sending reminders and I had put it to the back of my mind, but now I am not sure. Does anyone know the probability of a child catching measles? As a mother my instinct is to protect her, but am confused as to what I am protecting her from- measles or the possibility of something worse like sub-acute sclerosis pan encephalitis. I know its a huge debate and there are so many view-points. I just want someone to say "the probability of your child getting measles is... compared to dying from mmr treatment is..."
Can anyone help?

I don't think FM is jumping on Hilary. It's simple fact to point out that mass vaccination has made life safer for those who have not been vaccinated.

I can't begin to understand what you have gone through amyjade and I do feel for you very much. Often though, people on here say words to the effect that vaccination is 100% the answer. I for one, although I would never say it was useless tend to think of it as a bit hit and miss.
