'No evidence of harm' from vaccine ingredient opposed by US panel: WHO

The World Health Organization insisted Friday that there was no evidence of any harm from an important vaccine ingredient, which a newly appointed U.S. medical panel voted to oppose this week.

"There is no evidence of harm from the use of Thimerosal," WHO vaccine chief Kate O'Brien told journalists in Geneva, stressing that "there has been a thorough review of the evidence around the safety of Thimerosal."
