>Lack of informed consent is a serious possible issue here. Lack of accountability might be another one. Being cheaper, by contrast, shouldn't be seen as bad. But all of this needs to be proven.

The facts are all already proven. Since you find it hard to do research homework on subjects you argue about, let me ease your comfort further by sharing more links and evidence.

It's all Documented in the Indian Parliamentary committee report on HPV vaccines. It is all in public domain.

"The Committee finds the entire matter very intriguing and fishy. The choice of countries and population groups; the monopolistic nature, at that point of time, of the product being pushed; the unlimited market potential and opportunities in the universal immunization progammes of the respective countries are all pointers to a well planned scheme to commercially exploit a situation. Had PATH been successful in getting the HPV vaccine included in the universal immunization programme of the concerned countries, this would have generated windfall profit for the manufacturer(s) by way of automatic sale, year after year, without any promotional or marketing expenses. It is well known that once introduced into the immunization programme it becomes politically impossible to stop any vaccination. To achieve this end effortlessly without going through the arduous and strictly regulated route of clinical trials, PATH resorted to an element of subterfuge by calling the clinical trials as “Observational Studies” or “Demonstration Project” and various such expressions. Thus, the interest, safety and well being of subjects were completely jeopardized by PATH by using self-determined and selfservicing nomenclature which is not only highly deplorable but a serious breach of law of the land. The Committee is not aware about the strategy followed by PATH in the remaining three countries viz. Uganda, Vietnam and Peru. The Government should take up the matter with the Governments of these countries through diplomatic channels to know the truth of the matter and take appropriate necessary action, accordingly. The Committee would also like to be apprised of the responses of these countries in the matter."

Final Report of the Committee appointed by the Govt. of India, (vide notification No. V.25011/160/2010-HR dated 15th April, 2010,) to enquire into “Alleged irregularities in the conduct of studies using Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine” by PATH in India:

"A Global Project, titled “HPV Vaccine: evidence for Impact”, a population based, post-licensure study of HPV vaccine for prevention of Cancer cervix has been being carried out by PATH (Programme for Appropriate Technology in Health), an international NGO, in the districts of Khammam of Andhra Pradesh (AP) and Vadodra of Gujarat in India since 2007. It was implemented in collaboration with the Indian Council of Medical Research and State Governments of AP and Gujarat. Besides India, the project has also been carried out in Peru, Uganda and Vietnam. The project is funded by a grant from Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and donation of HPV vaccine by the manufacturers, viz. GSK and MSD to PATH."

And the consequences on Gates Foundation have also happened in India.

Now as for your dear hero Bill Gates, (to quote your own words) "if there truly was some hushed up medical disaster in India caused by the Gates foundation", just hear it from the horse's mouth..

"Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has landed in hot water after referring to India as “a kind of laboratory to try things” during a podcast with LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman. His remarks, while intended to highlight India's progress and its collaboration with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, have revived a controversial 2009 clinical trial -- funded by Gates' foundation -- which killed seven tribal schoolgirls and left many others severely ill."

"In 2013, India’s Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health and Family Welfare, comprising of members across political lines, held the BMGF-funded Program for Appropriate Technology in Health (PATH) guilty of violating regulatory and ethical norms laid down by the Indian and U.S. governments for clinical trials. The committee investigated the role of the BMGF and PATH in the trial of HPV vaccines on children in Khammam district of Andhra Pradesh and Vadodra district of Gujarat, during which seven children died. It uncovered ethical failings in the study and the subsequent investigation. The government of India responded by restricting the BMGF from country’s immunization program."
