UN says Syria vaccine deaths was an NGO 'mistake'

A spokesman for the UN secretary-general says the recent deaths of Syrian children after receiving measles vaccinations was the result of a "mistake" by a non-governmental partner who mixed in a muscle relaxant meant for anesthesia.

 

But Stefane Dujarric told reporters on Wednesday the incident has nothing to do with the quality of humanitarian aid now going through UN channels into Syria.
