    New Revelations About Injections - the Quality of Vaccines Imported
    Into Armenia Is in Question

    There has been a scandal on the international drug market the other
    day, which is directly related to us. It is about GlaxoSmithKline PLC,
    which will pay unprecedented $3 billion fine, because its diabetes
    medicine has caused 100 thousand people in the US to have heart
    attacks; there have also been cases of death. Besides, this company
    has produced unapproved antidepressants for children, has paid
    kickbacks to doctors and now faces a trial.

    There is another interesting fact in this story. The thing is that two
    years ago, in Armenia a 5-month-old infant, Anahit Isajanyan, became
    an epileptic after an injection on April 26. Anahit's relatives claim
    that the child had been healthy before the injection, after which she
    immediately had an epileptic attack. And our Ministry of Healthcare,
    Gayane Sahakyan, the head of the National Program for
    Immunoprevention, in particular, assured Aravot that the parents said,
    to put it mildly, `nonsense,' that such a thing couldn't happen
    because of the vaccine, because Anahit was injected with the new
    pentavalent vaccine, which had been produced in Hungary by a
    well-known company, GlaxoSmithKline. The specialists of the ministry
    maintained that it was not right to quit a whole national program on
    the basis of one family, although the issue here is not only Anahit. A
    child from Byureghavan picked a flower on her way to a polyclinic for
    injection and a few days after that she died. During one year, in
    2009-2010, our children were injected with 69 720 doses of vaccine,
    because of which there were 2983 cases of negative post-injection
    effects.

    The parents of the child who became an epileptic have inquired and
    found out that this pentavalent vaccine have been boycotted by the
    European countries and only a few small countries like ours around the
    world use it. However, Gayane Sahakyan assures that vaccine of
    GlaxoSmithKline PLC has passed the prequalification of WHO and has
    gotten a WHO certificate, therefore WHO has no suspicions that it can
    be dangerous for Armenian children. One cannot help but doubt these
    words and guarantees today, because we are dealing with a company,
    which has caused 100 thousand people to have heart attacks and has
    done business at the expense of children and to which we actually
    entrust our children's health.
