Indian Parliament Finds 'Gross Violations' in Gates-Funded HPV Vaccine Project
[RECORD.TXT] · cat --full
A 2013 report by India's Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health sharply criticized HPV-vaccine 'demonstration projects' run by the U.S. nonprofit PATH with Gates Foundation funding, in which some 23,000 girls aged 10 to 14 were vaccinated in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat in 2009. The committee found 'gross violations' of informed-consent rules — hostel wardens signed thousands of consent forms for tribal girls, witness signatures were missing, and some forms were dated after vaccination. The projects had been suspended in 2010 following the deaths of seven girls, though investigations did not establish that the vaccines caused the deaths. PATH said it had followed applicable guidelines. The case became a lasting symbol of ethical concerns about Gates-funded health research in poor communities.

Gates-backed World Mosquito Program reaches 16 million people protected from dengue via Wolbachia method
The World Mosquito Program — backed in part by the Gates Foundation — announced in January 2026 that its Wolbachia-infected mosquito releases had reached over 16.1 million people across multiple countries, including Colombia, Indonesia, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Fiji, Vanuatu, and Vietnam. Wolbachia-carrying Aedes aegypti mosquitoes — which block dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever transmission — had established self-sustaining populations in treated cities without requiring ongoing releases. Gold-standard randomised trials in Indonesia showed a 77% reduction in dengue incidence. The program represented one of the largest and most cost-effective vector control deployments in history.
