After two babies died and 29 became ill within hours of receiving vaccinations for tuberculosis, rotovirus, and Hepatitis B, the Mexican Social Security Institute suspended vaccines for infants on Saturday.
The babies were taken to a hospital in the impoverished area of Simojovel, Chiapas, on Friday, The Associated Press reports, and six of the 29 sick babies are in grave condition. Investigators say they do not yet know what caused the adverse reactions.
