WAS POLIO VACCINE CONTAMINATED?
|
|
(From *The Spotlight*, July 18, 1994)
|
|
|
|
Washington, D.C. -- The National Vaccine Information Center
|
|
(NVIC) {1}, operated by Dissatisfied Parents Together (DPT), is
|
|
calling on Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Donna
|
|
Shalala to immediately conduct new, independently monitored
|
|
testing of archived samples of polio vaccine for possible
|
|
contamination with monkey retroviruses {2}.
|
|
|
|
The consumer advocate group is also requesting that genetic
|
|
analysis be conducted on any extraneous viruses found in the
|
|
vaccine lots to determine their potential link to human
|
|
immunodeficiency virus (HIV), also a retrovirus, and the origin
|
|
of the AIDS epidemic.
|
|
|
|
In response to an investigative article in *Redbook* magazine
|
|
questioning the link between AIDS and contaminated polio vaccine,
|
|
NVIC/DPT is demanding that the government make public all results
|
|
of past and future testing of polio vaccine samples and other
|
|
biological products for retroviruses or simian (monkey) virus
|
|
contamination. NVIC/DPT, which represents families of children
|
|
injured or killed by vaccines, is also pointing to a 1992 article
|
|
published in a prominent medical journal, *The Lancet*, in which
|
|
American lawyer Walter S. Kyle presented evidence linking
|
|
contaminated polio vaccine to the origin of the AIDS epidemic.
|
|
|
|
-+- What Did They Know? -+-
|
|
|
|
Kyle, who has represented families of individuals killed or
|
|
injured by polio vaccines for the past 17 years, suggested in the
|
|
*Lancet* article that U.S. government and drug company scientists
|
|
knew as early as 1976 that polio virus grown on the kidney
|
|
tissues of the African green monkey and used in the manufacturing
|
|
of polio vaccine was contaminated with simian retroviruses. In a
|
|
1993 letter to Dr. Philip Lee, assistant secretary of HHS, Kyle
|
|
requested testing of oral polio vaccine lots, especially those
|
|
manufactured between 1976 and 1985, for possible retrovirus
|
|
contamination.
|
|
|
|
NVIC/DPT Co-Founder and President Barbara Loe Fisher said,
|
|
"American citizens, who are required by law to be vaccinated,
|
|
have the right to demand honest answers from the government about
|
|
whether contaminated polio vaccine may have caused AIDS, and the
|
|
best and only way to address this issue is to immediately test
|
|
vaccine samples in the archives of the U.S. government. It looks
|
|
like scientists in the FDA knew a long time ago that polio
|
|
vaccine grown on African green monkey kidney tissue was
|
|
contaminated with monkey retroviruses but they continued business
|
|
as usual and did not require manufacturing processes to be
|
|
changed."
|
|
|
|
-+- Be Concerned -+-
|
|
|
|
"This is a legitimate cause for public concern because
|
|
retroviruses have been found to cause leukemia and cancerous
|
|
tumors in lab animals as well as, over time, to cause cellular
|
|
and genetic changes in the host they infect. The public deserves
|
|
a serious investigation into vaccine development, manufacturing
|
|
and testing in this country."
|
|
|
|
In addition to the *Lancet* and *Redbook* articles, a lawsuit was
|
|
filed on February 14 in New Jersey on behalf of an American child
|
|
who has AIDS with no known risk factors. In the lawsuit, American
|
|
Cyanamid, through Lederle Laboratories, was charged with
|
|
manufacturing oral polio vaccine contaminated with retroviruses.
|
|
|
|
Oral polio vaccine made in the kidney tissues of the African
|
|
green monkey, especially between the years of 1976 and 1985, was
|
|
ingested by millions of children (some of whom may have had open
|
|
mouth sores at the time of vaccination or already had compromised
|
|
immune systems) as well as ingested by an unknown number of
|
|
homosexual adults whose doctors used the vaccine in the U.S. and
|
|
Africa to treat herpes lesions.

Dissatisfied Parents Together (DPT), is a national educational

organization founded in 1982 by parents whose children were

injured or killed by the DPT vaccine. The organization, which
|
|
worked to create the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of

1986, serves as an information clearinghouse on vaccines and

childhood diseases and is dedicated to preventing vaccine
|

injuries and deaths through public education.

|
|
19, 1992 ("The Origin of AIDS"), "...Reporter Tom Curtis contends
|
|
the African outbreak could be due to polio vaccines contaminated
|
|
with 'SV 40,' the simian monkey virus. Between 1954 and 1963,
|
|
thirty million Africans were injected with the polio vaccine."
