Peter C Gøtzsche of the Institute for Scientific Freedom, and Karsten Juhl Jørgensen of the Cochrane Collaboration, have published their analysis of The European Medicines Agency (EMA) 2015 investigation which concluded there was no link between HPV vaccines and serious neurological adverse events, and they report that the “EMA relied on the data the drug companies had provided to them even though it had been demonstrated that the companies had underreported possible neurological harms.”
In this paper, the authors explain in detail that:
➡︎ The review was not independent
➡︎ Important independent studies were not included
➡︎ Despite claims by the manufacturers, there were no placebo-controlled trials
➡︎ The experts disagreed on the interpretation of the data
