Description

Donald L. Patton. Reviews DoD’s Off. of the Spec. Ass’t. for Gulf War Illnesses. Focuses on their investigation into vets’ potential exposure to chemical or biological agents during the Persian Gulf War. Addresses concern about reports that the blood samples of some ill Gulf War-era vets (GWEV) contained antibodies for squalene -- a component of adjuvant formulations (AF) used in experimental vaccines but not in licensed vaccines. Identifies whether: DoD or NIH performed or sponsored research using squalene, DoD considered using AF in vaccines administered to GWEV, & any research has detected the presence of squalene in ill GWEV.
