GENERAL
I hereby submit the following comment in response to FDA Docket 2006D-0383.
It is abundantly clear in the FDA guidelines that there are alternatives cell lines and technologies that could be
employed for vaccine development other than abortion-derived fetal cell lines. As citizens concerned with both
moral values and the health of our families, I request government intervention to ensure the creation of
vaccines from non-objectionable sources. It is an unjust coercion of peoples consciences when vaccines are
needed that utilize aborted fetal cell lines. Equally, there is a danger that many people would not submit to
immunizations produced in this manner, which could endanger the health and protection of the population as a
whole during an outbreak. Thus, it is in the best interest to the population, as well as pharmaceutical companies
and government agencies responsibility, to promote the use of non-objectionable sources. Please take these
comments under serious consideration.
