An 11th baby has died after getting a Hep B vaccine.  The three month old boy died painfully 17 hours after being injected with Quinvaxem.

He is the 1tth baby to die in Vietnam since the beginning of 2013.  Since 2010 at least 33 babies have died in Vietnam after getting a Hep B shot.

China has shut down at least three Hep B vaccine makers, after 17 babies died there in 2013.

Vietnam did temporarily ban the vaccine, but UN World Health inspectors have told both Vietnam and China that there is nothing wrong with the vaccine.  Vietnam resumed vaccinations, and the baby deaths also resumed.
