Tainted rotavirus vaccine safe to use, FDA says :dry:


The pig virus found in Rotavirus vaccine made by GlaxoSmithKlinehttp://kona.kontera.com/javascript/lib/imgs/grey_loader.gif
(http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/#) does not pose any health risk, media reports cited U.S. health regulators as ruling on Friday.
The Food and Drug Administration said in a statement that there is no evidence that the contamination caused any harm and rotavirus vaccines made by both Glaxo and Merck are safe to use.
DNA fragments from procine circovirus have been found in ratovirus vaccines by both companies, Reuters reported. Early reports said that the vaccine by Merck is not contaminated.
Some strains of the pig virus may cause a wasting syndrome in young piglets, but it is unknown whether they may cause health problems (http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/#) in humans.

I get the distinct feeling someone doesn't trust the FDA.
