Minimum of 40 Children Paralyzed After New Meningitis Vaccine
Jan 6th, 2013 | By Christina England | Category: Christina England, Top StoriesThis child had a reaction to a new meningitis vaccine.
On December 20, 2012, a vaccination tragedy hit the  small village of Gouro, located in northern Chad, Africa. According to  the newspaper La Voix, out of five hundred children who  received the new meningitis vaccine MenAfriVac, at least 40 of them  between the ages of 7 and 18 have become paralyzed. Those children also  suffered hallucinations and convulsions.
Since this report, the true extent of this tragedy is  coming to light, as parents of these vaccinated children have reported  yet more injuries. The authorities in the area are shaken, as citizens  set fire to a sanitary administration vehicle in a demonstration of  their frustration and anger at the government’s negligence.[1]
“We wish that our children would get their health back,” shared the parent of a sick child.
THE MENAFRIVAC VACCINE
MenAfriVac is a new vaccine manufactured by Serum  Institute of India Limited. According to The Meningitis Vaccine Project  (MVP), it is the first vaccine to gain approval to travel outside the  cold chain, meaning that the vaccine can be transported without  refrigeration or ice packs for up to four days:
“The meningitis A  vaccine known as MenAfriVac®, created to meet the needs of Africa’s  meningitis belt, can now be kept in a controlled temperature chain (CTC)  at temperatures of up to 40°C for up to four days, a decision that  could help increase campaign efficiency and coverage and save funds  normally spent maintaining the challenging cold chain during the “last  mile” of vaccine delivery.” [2]
The data on the MenAfriVac vaccine is further backed by  the World Health Organization’s website [3] and the Bill and Melinda  Gates Foundation website. [4]
So, why does this information differ vastly from the  information given on the manufacturer’s website? Serum Institute of  India Ltd. stated under the section marked STORAGE:
“MenAfriVac should be  stored and transported between 2-8ºC. Protect from light. The diluent  should be stored at 25°C. It is recommended to protect the reconstituted  vaccine from direct sunlight. Do not exceed the expiry date stated on  the external packaging.” [5]
