Conflict of interest statement

I worked at IQWiG between 2004 and 2011, and where I participated in review of data on HPV vaccines as basis for information to the general public, and the development of the Institute’s scientific methods. IQWiG included CSRs in its drug evaluations. I have both collaborated, and been in disagreements, with two of the authors (PCG and TJ). In 2018, I blogged about the authors’ critique of the Cochrane review on HPV vaccines and the dispute between PCG and the Cochrane Collaboration.
