:02:05. > :02:09.cocktail of medication every day. He has a very rare condition called

:03:30. > :03:36.am impressed with that. But it is the way we have been treated. It is
:03:36. > :03:41.absolutely horrendous. So why has it taken so long for the problems to
:03:41. > :03:47.come to light? How thoroughly had Pandemrix been tested in the first
:03:47. > :03:52.original trials on Pandemrix took place. Now it was because the global
:03:52. > :03:56.threat presented by a pandemic of swine flu that it was decided the
:03:56. > :04:00.trial should be fast—tracked so swine flu that it was decided the
:04:00. > :04:04.results would be available sooner. But GSK were only happy for the
:04:04. > :04:09.vaccine to be given if the British government gave them an indemnity.
:04:09. > :04:11.That means that if things went wrong it would be the British government
:04:11. > :04:16.that would have to pay compensation rather than the drug company. But
:04:16. > :04:22.for Caroline's son, something did go wrong and she's angry that the
:04:22. > :04:26.government has been dragging its feet over the issue, failing to
:04:26. > :04:28.government has been dragging its seriously mounting evidence from its
:04:28. > :04:33.dangers of Pandemrix. In the middle of 2010 Finland withdrew the vaccine
:04:34. > :04:40.for young people under 20. The decision followed a study by this
:04:40. > :04:48.sleep expert who I met at the start of my investigation more than two
:04:48. > :04:57.narcolepsy was 12 times higher, compared to not having it. We had
:04:57. > :05:04.beginning of August, about the number of narcoleptic of children of
:05:04. > :05:12.Pandemrix. No way I would have given it to any of my own children or
:05:12. > :05:18.friends, I said, I have it because there is no risk but do not give it
:05:19. > :05:24.to your children. Back in the UK though, nothing changed. In fact,
:05:24. > :05:31.investigated Pandemrix, it was being seasonal flu vaccine. Through her
:05:31. > :05:38.campaigning Caroline met up with Pauline Carlton from Liverpool.
:05:38. > :05:43.Hello! You're right? She had her whole family vaccinated against
:05:43. > :05:48.swine flu in January 2011, long after the vaccine had been withdrawn
:05:48. > :05:56.in Finland. Nice to meet you. Soon after the vaccination, her youngest
:05:56. > :06:04.symptoms as Josh. He was a humorous little boy, he used to make me laugh
:06:04. > :06:08.so much, he had a wicked sense of humour, he had the silliest thing to
:06:08. > :06:14.make me laugh. All that has gone. What is left is this little angry,
:06:14. > :06:17.frustrated the full boy, it is heartbreaking. When I visited the
:06:17. > :06:24.vaccine manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline two years ago, I wanted to know
:06:24. > :06:27.vaccine manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline they would acknowledge the apparent
:06:27. > :06:32.narcolepsy in Josh, Lucas and other children. There is currently no
:06:32. > :06:35.evidence at all to indicate there is a causal link between Pandemrix
:06:35. > :06:39.evidence at all to indicate there is narcolepsy. We are working hard
:06:39. > :06:42.evidence at all to indicate there is the regulatory authorities to try
:06:42. > :06:47.and understand what is happening. Are you saying you disagree with the
:06:47. > :06:52.Finnish Institute when they say there is a link with Pandemrix? At
:06:52. > :07:00.authorities believe there is not a Pandemrix but we are working with
:07:00. > :07:07.it. At the end of the day, patient safety is of utmost importance to us
:07:07. > :07:14.and we would never put out a drug or leave it out there if we believed it
:07:14. > :07:21.was a true issue. Then a year ago a study in Ireland found a 13 fold
:07:21. > :07:25.Pandemrix. It took Caroline to meet another campaigner in Dublin to
:07:25. > :07:28.Pandemrix. It took Caroline to meet out how they were fighting for
:07:28. > :07:31.compensation. We got a promise from the Minister from health here, that
:07:31. > :07:36.support package proposal would be put to government in the summer
:07:36. > :07:41.support package proposal would be that has not happened. We are now
:07:41. > :07:47.putting pressure on them to do that. And finally Inside Out revealed
:07:47. > :07:48.which showed English children have study by the health authorities
:07:48. > :07:52.which showed English children have also been affected. Yet GSK were
:07:52. > :07:57.still saying there was no data increase of narcolepsy among those
:07:57. > :07:59.vaccinated. But one of the academics involved in the original trials
:07:59. > :08:02.vaccinated. But one of the academics the vaccine disagreed. The bottom
:08:02. > :08:06.line is that they have found that there was somewhere between ten
:08:06. > :08:09.line is that they have found that 16 times more likely to have had
:08:09. > :08:14.Pandemrix than other children. That confirms these other studies done in
:08:14. > :08:22.Finland, Sweden and Ireland. These researchers have put a number on it
:08:22. > :08:29.risk was something like one in 52,000. Glaxo Smith Kline say they
:08:29. > :08:33.now want to carry out more research into the claim to seek what is
:08:33. > :08:36.causing the narcolepsy. This could include other factors such as the
:08:36. > :08:44.environment or genetics, they say. The company say the vaccine went to
:08:44. > :08:49.a vigorous approval process and throughout development there was no
:08:49. > :08:54.data to diet —— suggesting a link. But Josh is left battling daily
:08:54. > :08:59.life. He needs powerful drugs to keep him awake, which may shorten
:08:59. > :09:02.his life. The families have applied Caroline has just received a letter
:09:02. > :09:06.that on balance of probability, Caroline has just received a letter
:09:06. > :09:10.jab contributed to Josh's condition but he will not be eligible for
:09:10. > :09:17.compensation because he is not disabled enough. Looking at their
:09:17. > :09:21.something like, loss of eyesight or hearing, loss of limbs or not being

:09:49. > :09:54.get through a day. At the end of the day, this vaccine has irreversibly
