“Due to failed screening program of uterine neck cancer a serious harm has been caused to the health of hundreds of women. Where the financial means were addressed allocated for this purpose is not clear,” he stressed.
Neurosurgeon Marina Khachatryan said women with papilloma virus must in no case be vaccinated Gardasil 4 as it may cause uterine neck cancer.
Attorney of the Armenian healthcare national council Pavel Poladyan said that on March 22 Marina Khachatryan has submitted a report about crime at the National Security Service, pointing the concerns relating to Gardasil 4 vaccine. The attorney said a criminal case will be launched and all the people who allowed illegalities will be brought to responsibility.
