Over the years, the VSD has contributed to several significant findings, such as:
Thimerosal: Studies conducted by the VSD have provided evidence that thimerosal, a preservative previously used in vaccines, is not associated with autism. Rotavirus Vaccine: VSD studies identified a small increased risk of intussusception following the administration of the first dose of rotavirus vaccine, leading to updated recommendations and improved safety. HPV Vaccine: Research has shown that the HPV vaccine is safe and effective in preventing certain types of cancers caused by the human papillomavirus.
