Yes, this page needs a lot of work. However, I can only work on it a little bit at a time, it makes me nauseous when I think about how these vaccines are made and what is in them. Thank you for your patience.

Inactivated Hep A
Vaccine
Manufacturer:
Merck & Co., Inc.
Date of Revision: February, 2003
Substance(s) disease is grown in:
grown in cell culture
in human MRC-5 diploid fibroblasts
Ingredients:
formalin; amorphous
aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate; contains protein, DNA, bovine albumin,
formaldehyde, aluminum, sodium borate and sodium chloride
Notes:
From the 2nd section, 1st
paragraph, 3rd sentence of the insert: "While the course of the disease is
generally benign and does not result in chronic hepatitis, infection with
hepatitis A virus remains an important cause of morbidity and occasional
fulminant hepatitis and death." The 2nd paragraph lists possible routes of
transmission.
Name of Vaccine:
Varivax (older)
What kind of vaccine is it? Live vaccine for Varicella (Chicken Pox)
Manufacturer: Merck & Co
Date of Revision: November, 2000
Substance(s) disease is grown in: "The virus was initially obtained from a child with natural varicella, the introduced into
human embryonic (aborted human fetus) lung cell cultures, adapted to
and propagated in embryonic guinea pig (aborted guinea pig fetus)
cell cultures and finally propagated in human diploid cell cultures
(originating from human aborted fetal tissue) (WI-38). Further
passage of the virus for varicella vaccine was performed at Merck Research
Laboratories (MRL) in human diploid cell cultures
(originating from human aborted fetal tissue) (MRC-5) that were free of
adventitious agents."
Ingredients: human embryonic
(aborted fetus) lung cell cultures, embryonic guinea pig cell cultures and
human diploid cell cultures; sucrose, sodium chloride, monosodium
L-glutamate (MSG), sodium phosphate dibasic, potassium phosphate monobasic,
potassium chloride, residual DNA from the cells used, sodium phosphate
monobasic, EDTA, neomycin, and fetal bovine serum; sucrose, phosphate,
glutamate (MSG) and processed gelatin used as stabilizers.
Notes: From the package
insert ITSELF - 4th paragraph: "The attack rate of natural varicella following
household exposure among healthy susceptible children was shown to be 87% in
unvaccinated populations. Although is GENERALLY A BENIGN, SELF-LIMITING
DISEASE, varicella MAY be associated with serious complications (e.g. bacterial
superinfection, pneumonia, encephalitis, Reye's Syndrome), and/or death."
I think it is important to note that the manufacturer even states that the
disease MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH these complications, but does not necessarily
CAUSE these complications. Children having had too many antibiotics can
end up with a bacterial superinfection. Children having a impaired immune
system after too many vaccines can have all sorts of complications when
encountering a generally benign, self-limiting disease, including death.
