Just more proof you fucking morons don't ever read anything as long as it gives you a warm fuzzy feeling:

But the ultimate victims here are the millions of children who every year are being injected with a mumps vaccine that is not providing them with an adequate level of protection against mumps. And while this is a disease the CDC targeted ts the single largest purchaser of childhood vaccines (accounting for more than 50 percent of all vaccine purchasers), the United States is byo eradicate by now, the failure in Merck’s vaccine has allowed this disease to linger with significant outbreaks continuing to occur,” the suit alleges.

The real legal gripe is because Merck didn't test it's mumps component, lied about it to keep its contracts, and some people contracted mumps that shouldn't have. Big. Fucking. Deal. If this level of corruption is news to you, welcome to high school. It gets worse. This is NOT saying the vaccines "caused" the mumps. No. The legal argument is that MERCK is negligent in preventing people from getting sick, not causing it.
