Back in 2009, the Gates Foundation funded the trial of Gardasil (Merck) on nearly sixteen thousand poor and vulnerable tribal school children of the state of Andhra Pradesh in India. Many among those children fell terribly ill and at least five died.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀
At around the same time they conducted the trial of Cervarix (GlaxoSmithKline) on some fourteen thousand tribal children in Vadodara a place in Gujarat, India. Hundreds of those children fell terribly ill and at least two died.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Upon investigation it was found that in both cases consent forms were forged.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀In Andhra Pradesh out of the 9,543 forms, 1,948 forms had thumb impressions while hostel wardens had signed 2,763 forms. In Gujarat, out of 6,217 forms, 3,944 had thumb impressions and 5,454 either signed or carried thumb impressions of guardians. The data revealed that a very large number of parents or guardians, coerced into signing, were illiterate and could not even write in their local languages.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
The children and their parents maintained that they did not give informed consent and that they were not aware that they were taking part in the trial of an untested drug.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Some were told the drug was a new medicine that would prevent a range of diseases, including malaria.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Just because these children are poor and vulnerable does not mean that they deserve to be treated as guinea pigs for illegal and dangerous drug trials by pharmaceutical companies.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Children used in those trials claimed to have suffered problems, including: weight loss, fatigue, dizziness, menstrual problems, etc., etc. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Eventually, the Gates Foundation was brought under trial in the Supreme Court of India and kicked out of the country, refusing to be victims of these Nazi-like experiments.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Gates, quite the philanthropist, is working on a universal flu vaccine for us. Praying someone introduces Bill to Jesus. Soon. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
