Cape Town – The parents of 11-year-old Zanrie Nieuwoudt say she is suffering from lower motor neuron infection which she contracted after receiving the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine Gardasil at her school.

Zanrie's parents came forward after the Cape Argus reported on a ten-year-old Kraaifontein pupil who has been battling with 'HPV vaccine associated encephalopathy' after being vaccinated at school against cervical cancer.
