The vaccine was apparently given to up to 350 poor and homeless people last year. The medical personnel are disputing the claim by the authorities that the homeless people weren't told that they were testing a bird flu vaccine. There is no information about the level of involvement of the pharmaceutical companies that commissioned the trials at this time.

However, for some people, profit and greed are their sole reasons for existence. Closing their eyes to the side effects of drugs and vaccines (which often include death), they use whatever trickery and deception of the destitute that they deem necessary in order to further their own careers and line their own pockets. Perhaps few consumers truly understand that whenever they purchase a drug or a vaccine developed in this fashion, they are supporting this immorality. But could any possible "benefits" derived from these drugs or vaccines really be worth taking advantage of the weak and helpless?
