Wolfgang Wodarg , former SPD member of parliament, and chairman of the European parliament’s health committee, initiated the inquiry. The motion was passed unanimously by his colleagues in the European parliament‘s health committee.
Wodarg has criticised the measures taken against the swine flu as „one of the biggest medical scandals of the century.“
He said the influence of the the pharamaceutical industry on scientists and government officials has resulted in „millions of healthy people being exposed unnecessarily to the risks of an inadequately tested vaccine.“
That even though, the swine flu virus is „much less harmful“ than last year’s seasonal flu causing „not even a tenth of the usual deaths associated with flu.“
Wodarg has also criticised the way pharemceutical companies have made gigantic profits at the expense of tax payers.
He accused vaccine manufacturers of being willing even to inflict bodily harm“ in their pursuit of profits, noting that the adjuvants in the swine flu jab have hardly been tested.
