THE Public Attorney’s Office (PAO) on Thursday filed new criminal complaints before the Department of Justice (DOJ) against former Health Secretary Janette L. Garin and 37 others in connection with the deaths being attributed to the anti-dengue vaccine, Dengvaxia.
Families of schoolchildren Shiela Mae Guerra and Gillian Vasquez were assisted by PAO lawyers in filing the complaint of reckless imprudence resulting in homicide and violations of the Anti-Torture Act and Consumer Act before the DOJ.
This has brought to 29 the number of cases filed before the DOJ by families of alleged victims of Dengvaxia.
