In Guinea-Bissau, a clinical trial on infants partly funded by the United States, deemed "unethical", is ultimately banned

Frederik Schaltz-Buchholzer announced the cancellation of a controversial clinical trial in Guinea-Bissau due to lack of administrative approval. The study aimed to investigate non-specific effects of the hepatitis B vaccine at birth. Recent events included the resignation of six ethics committee members from the University of Southern Denmark in protest of the study's approval. Additionally, Guinea-Bissau's police conducted a raid on the Bandim Health Project, seizing a batch of vaccines.
