A lawsuit has been filed against Merck by an individual who allegedly suffered multiple medical complications after being injected with the company’s HPV vaccine, Gardasil, as a teenager.
As a result of taking Merck’s HPV vaccine, plaintiff Katherine E. Miller suffered “chronic and severe post-Gardasil symptoms,” the lawsuit (pdf) claims. “Plaintiff has been diagnosed with various medical conditions, including but not limited to, autoimmune hypothyroidism, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), brain cavernoma, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).”
