Prosecutors target Russian clinic testing British firm's MMR vaccine
Extract:
"Russian prosecutors have opened a criminal investigation into a clinic after unsubstantiated allegations that a vaccine made by the British drugs company GlaxoSmithKline has had disturbing side effects in a clinical trial. Prosecutors in Volgograd are investigating a clinic that tested the chickenpox, measles, mumps and rubella vaccine on 100 babies between the ages of one and two.
Prosecutors say at least one of the children developed alarming symptoms after receiving the vaccine. A regional court last week halted the trial, by the city's Independent clinical hospital, amid complaints from parents that they had not been fully informed they were taking part in an experiment."
