Global Concern Continues over Vaccine Safety

Global concern is mounting over the state of vaccine deaths and injuries. Following the H1N1 outbreak in 2009, many people were concerned over the vaccine health officials offered. The lackluster spread of the disease that was touted to be the next pandemic, left many Kansas and Missouri households facing the question, "What is best for my family?"

Officials in Finland and Sweden ceased the distribution of the swine flu vaccine after reports indicated a 350 percent jump in cases of narcolepsy among youth following administration of the vaccine. Some even suggested health care providers had prior knowledge of the link, but failed to alert the public.

Over the years, vaccines have been linked to a variety of different adverse conditions, autism as probably the most notable and most publicized example. As the debate in courtrooms and boardrooms raged on, many parents were left wondering what choice was the right one to make for their young children. Those concerns have not gone away. Instead, they have seemingly increased.

Recently, an Indian newspaper reported on the deaths of four children who passed away almost instantly after receiving a measles vaccination. According to the reports, the four children passed out and appeared to undergo convulsions before they died.

Many parents have also become concerned with over distribution of the vaccine designed to protect against cervical cancer. Following research that proved a virus, namely the human papillomavirus, or HPV, was responsible for the development of cervical cancer a large percentage of the time, a vaccine made popular through a vigorous ad campaign was made popular. Since that time, 71 deaths have been linked to the vaccine.

Parents whose children have been injured or harmed following vaccinations are left with many questions about their rights.
