There have been over 37,000. adverse events and 214 deaths from the Gardasil/Cervarix vaccines with no evidence of any benefit from the vaccine. These figures are off of the November 2014 VAERS report and estimated to be only 1-10% of actual cases.

- Tribal girls were given shots of cervical cancer vaccines during trial
- Children given Merck’s Gardasil and Cervarix vaccines
- Petitioners also asked judges to investigate trials of new drug Gardasil 9
- Drug has allegedly caused side-effects in children as young as nine
- Investigation claims children were used as unwitting human guinea pigs
- Supreme Court has given the government one month to provide answers
Judges in India’s Supreme Court have demanded answers after children died during a controversial cervical cancer vaccine trial.
Young tribal girls received shots of pharmaceutical company Merck’s Gardasil vaccine and Cervarix, manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline.
The vaccines are given to girls as young as nine in many countries – including the UK and the US – to protect against the human papilloma virus, one of the major causes of cervical cancer.
But the Indian court yesterday heard a challenge by campaigners who claim the study – funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation – failed to obtain the informed consent of the children or their parents.
They say that a ‘study’ carried out for the foundation by a US organisation was in fact an illegal drugs trial.
