There are fresh calls for a public inquiry into the vaccination of children in the 1970’s following reports that some children may have been injected with animal vaccines.

Instead of receiving the 3-in-1 children’s vaccine, some children may have been given a veterinary vaccine with a similar brand name.

The animal vaccine is only supposed to be used on farm stock but it is believed that children taking part in a drug trial in 1973 may have been injected with it.
