The CDC has quickly
removed a page from their website, which is now cached here, admitting
that more than 98 million Americans received one or more doses of polio
vaccine within an 8-year span when a proportion of the vaccine was
contaminated with a cancer causing polyomavirus called SV40. It has been
estimated that 10-30 million Americans could have received an SV40
contaminated dose of the vaccine.
V40 is an abbreviation for Simian vacuolating virus 40 or Simian virus 40, a polyomavirus that is found in both monkeys and humans. Like other polyomaviruses, SV40 is a DNA virus that has been found to cause tumors and cancer.
SV40 is believed to suppress the transcriptional properties of the tumor-suppressing genes in humans through the SV40 Large T-antigen and SV40 Small T-antigen. Mutated genes may contribute to uncontrolled cellular proliferation, leading to cancer.
