Supreme Court REJECTS PIL filed by doctors' organization raising concerns about HPV vaccination for girls
Petitioner- Universal Health Organization: The way in which it is being implemented...there is no adverse event mechanism. Whenever there is adverse event, it has to be monitored. Secondly, there should be compensation scheme. It's being administered to girls of 14-15 years age...there are reports that it impacts their fertility
J Bagchi: WHO prescribes [HPV] vaccine for women. After that, I don't think doctors should come up with a petition. Wherever there's a case of incorrect vaccination, ordinary rules of compensation will apply. No special treatment for adverse impact in case of a particular vaccine
CJI: Don't ask us to make harsh observations. If petitioner members are doctors, it's a very very serious issue. It's a question of health of millions of our daughters. And you want to derail this.
