Now PVC2 has also been found in Rotavirus Vaccine

In other words, they have no intention of removing the vaccine from the market, and are quite happy to continue to vaccinate children with it because it causes no KNOWN (caveat - at this time) disease in humans. How about the KNOWN disease it causes in pigs?

In pigs - Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is considered by most to be the etiologic agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) (aka pig AIDS), but it is also found in association with numerous other conditions. These conditions include porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS), porcine respiratory disease complex (PRDC) (aka pig pneumonia and asthma), congenital tremors (CT) type AII (aka pig Parkinson's), reproductive failure and enteritis.

In the interests of being contrary....

PVC2 has never been known to cause disease in humans and it is commonly found in humans. The news report said that fragments had been found in very small amounts. Fragments, not the whole virus, not the active virus and not even in significant amounts (it takes a reasonable amount of a virus to infect a person).

Not that I'm saying its right, just putting things into perspective.

The rather nasty experiment linked by Yeddi is mostly about PRRSV, and the PVC2 pigs fared only slightly worse than the controls.
