PESHAWAR: At least 700 schoolchildren fell sick after polio vaccination in Peshawar causing an attack on a hospital in city by angry mob, ARY News reported on Monday.
...there has been a huge increase in non-polio acute flaccid paralysis (NPAFP).
In 2011, there were an extra 47,500 new cases of NPAFP.
Clinically indistinguishable from polio paralysis but twice as deadly, the incidence of NPAFP was directly proportional to doses of oral polio received.
Rejecting the reports on various media outlets linking the children''s condition with the vaccine, he said, "It was reported that children from two private schools in Peshawar fell sick due to the polio vaccine but that is not true. The children are in stable condition."

Couldnt agree more.
The government has made it illegal to sue vaccine manufacturers for damage caused by their products.
Instead, we're left with this kangaroo court:
FYI: In the US alone, the vaccine "court" has paid over $3.3 BILLION to victims of vaccines..
Can you imagine the monetary damages if they were sued in open court?
Glaxo Agrees to Pay $3 Billion in Fraud Settlement.
If we were allowed to hold them accountable, they would have been bankrupted or forced to make their product safer.
As it is now, there is no incentive to do so.
"Despite all our assurances, parents were worried", Inamullah told reporters Tuesday, adding that just two children were still in hospital but expected to be released soon.
PESHAWAR: More than 25,000 children were rushed to hospitals in northwest Pakistan after rumours spread that some had suffered reactions to a polio vaccine, officials said on Tuesday (Apr 23).
In Peshawar, children had now been taken to a hospital allegedly ill after receiving the polio vaccine. Later, Atta pointed out that there was a teacher behind it who had asked the children to report symptoms of nausea and diarrhea. The children were students of the Darul Qalam school, which had allowed vaccination teams for the first time in years.

This might stop happening if big pharma vaccine producers could be sued for the damage and misery they cause. The government would have to get rid of that revolving door and lobbying policy though, those conflicts of interest sometimes end really badly.

If a vaccine is defective or contaminated they can be sued.
And be aware that this is outside of the USA. Local laws take precedence.

Have you ever tried to sue someone in international court?
