Although it's a serious issue - I think it's important not to get a whole

panic started.

 

As per the news reports, the measles vaccine used in Ukraine was produced by

Serum Institute of India Ltd.

 

The measles vaccines we use in the United States is from Merck, a different

manufacturer.

Pampers Donated Vaccines to UNICEF to HELP the children.. What happened?

 

More than 90 people, mostly children, have been hospitalized in eastern

Ukraine after measles vaccinations.

 

On May 13, a 17-year-old boy died after a measles inoculation. Two days

later, over 60 people in were hospitalized.

 

Ukraine's President, Viktor Yushchenko, demanded that the Ukrainian health

ministry take all measures to prevent such occurrences in the future. Measles

immunization has for the moment been halted in Ukraine.

It would appear that in India, the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine is

manufactured by the Serum Institute of India Ltd. at Pune.

In the U.S., Merck's MMR vaccine is manufactured at their plant in West

Point, Pennsylvania. However,this does not mean there are no problems with

safety here. You might recall several batches of this vaccine were suspended

in Canada last December when 5 people were hospitalised with serious

allergic reactions after receiving MMR-II.

More disturbing facts -

 

" Late last year, Merck issued a recall for 1.2 million doses of some

pediatric vaccines made at the West Point, Pennsylvania plant cited in (an

FDA warning letter) " .... " after an FDA inspection of the Merck plant had

uncovered 45 areas of concern, including contaminated packaging of

children's vaccines, unwanted fibers on vaccine vial stoppers, failure to

follow good management practices, and contamination of bulk vaccine lots. "

The FDA inspection of the plant occurred between November 26 2007 and

January 17 2008 and the warning letter to Merck describing " a number of

significant objectionble conditions relating to (the) firm's compliance with

CGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practice) " can be read here
