The HPV Vaccine: Preventive Care or Human Sacrifice?

vaccine, vaccinationReports of adverse reactions to the new HPV vaccine Gardasil are escalating. One particularly heart-wrenching example is the story of 12-year-old Brittany who lost all feeling in her leg and collapsed two weeks after receiving the Gardasil vaccine.

Adding insult to injury, people who are injured by the vaccine cannot even sue Merck, the maker of the Gardasil vaccine, because it is part of the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Fund.

While the FDA claims adverse reactions to Gardasil are rare, a review of the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) data shows that several thousands of adverse reactions have been reported in the United States alone. And hundreds of Australian girls have experienced side effects like paralysis, dizzy spells and seizures, but Australia‘s Department of Health and Ageing refuses to release any details.

Further, The European Medicines Agency reported that two women died not long after they received the vaccine, one in Austria and one in Germany. The Financial Times also reported that there have been 11 deaths and a wide array of other adverse reactions, including:
  • Bells Palsy
  • Guillan-Barre syndrome
  • Seizures
  • Blood clotting and heart problems
  • Miscarriages and fetal abnormalities amongst pregnant women who received the vaccine

Dr. Mercola''s Comments Dr. Mercola's Comments:

Thanks to Merck’s aggressive advertising campaign for Gardasil -- the one that features young girls chanting “I want to be one less” -- mothers and daughters across the United States are lining up to be vaccinated.

Yet, once you know the facts about this vaccine and HPV, the virus it supposedly prevents, it becomes very clear just how useless -- and dangerous -- this vaccine really is.

Getting the Facts About HPV

There are more than 100 types of human papillomaviruses (HPVs). Of them, only 10-30 can cause cervical cancer. The rest can lead to skin infections that cause genital warts or common warts on your hands and feet.

These are very common viruses, and an estimated 25 million Americans have HPV infections. However, this is NOT cause for alarm because, as even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states: “In 90% of cases, your body’s immune system clears the HPV infection naturally within two years.”

This is true whether the infection is the type that can cause warts or cancer.

Meanwhile, Merck’s Gardasil vaccine contains just four types of HPV. If you contract one of the 96+ types that aren’t included, you’re out of luck. And, if you’ve already been exposed to one of the four types of virus in the vaccine, it doesn’t work against those either.

Some Scary Facts About Gardasil

The long-term effects of using this vaccine on young girls is unknown, and in the short-term, many girls have already begun to suffer. Common side effects include:
  • Pain, swelling, itching and redness at the injection site
  • Fever
  • Nausea
  • Dizziness
  • Vomiting
  • Fainting
Severe allergic reactions, including difficulty breathing, have also been reported, as has:
  • Swollen glands
  • Guillain-Barre syndrome
  • Headaches
  • Joint pain
  • Aching muscles
  • Unusual tiredness and weakness
As of last October, 3,461 complaints about Gardasil had been filed with the FDA's Vaccine Adverse Event Report System, and 11 women died after exposure to the vaccine.

Meanwhile, aside from being injected with four types of HPV proteins, girls and women who receive this vaccine should know what else is in the shot:

1. Aluminum adjuvants, which have been linked to neurological damage including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease.

2. Polysorbate 80, which has been linked to infertility in mice.

3. Sodium borate, a main ingredient in roach killer.

Be “One Less” To Get Gardasil

I think this would be a more appropriate message to send out to young women. There is absolutely no reason to risk the serious side effects of this vaccine to prevent an infection that goes away on its own 90 percent of the time. And there’s no guarantee that you’ll be protected anyway, since you can still get HPV once you’ve had the vaccine. It’s really a no-win situation for those who receive it.

Of course, you can radically reduce your risk of getting HPV in the first place if you follow safe-sex practices, or wait to have sex until you’re in a committed relationship. Then, keep your immune system in tip-top shape, and it will be more than able to shake any HPV virus that comes its way.

The immune system needs tissue Calcium to be able to work properly. The sun causes an increase in Vit D production which pulls Ca out of the tissue resulting in a decreased immune function. This article http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/03/30/health/main609455.shtml  discusses the role of the sun and an increase in HPV in women. This summer increase your Calcium Lactate intake and Vitamin F to put the Ca back in the tissues......some natural Vit C will be helpful too.

Call me a conspiracy theorist if you like, but I believe this is simply government sanctioned population control.  Why make it a vaccine that is required in order to attend Public Schools?  They don't know what the long term effects will be.  Ten years from now, they'e going to discover that the 10, 11, and 12 year old girls that were vaccinated with this stuff are sterile.  How the heck did it get FDA approval without, what used to be, required testing?! Never mind, I already know the answer to that one.  Guess if you have enough people in your back pocket, you can just about sanction anything.

I check out the NNT for Gardasil....it's 88 for genital warts and 125 for cervical cancer....that means that it takes 125 people to take the vaccine for 1 person to be protected against cervical cancer...the other 124 have no benefit!! Terrible odds...almost as bad as statins at nnt 250 (number needed to treat)!...The companies furnish these numbers!!!...Ask your doctors for the NNTs and then ask them to explain why you should take a drug with an NNT greater than 4!

That is why they call it practicing medicine.   I really do wish more people would take responsbility for their own health needs rather go like sheep to slaughter because something on the boob tube has become so romantisized they actually believe what they are hearing.

80-85% of the population will have HPV at some point in their lives. It is VERY common and currently there is no test for men. Most people have no symptoms and don't even know they have it. Unless a man has warts, he will not be aware he has it and this is why the numbers are so high because people pass it to each other so easily. Many people in long term monogomous relationships end up having it becasue their partner has had it for years and never known it and then the fem,ale gets a pap test and it shows up. There are over 100 strains of HPV and only a handful that lead to cancer. The strains that cause the genital warts DO NOT cause cancer and are among the low-risk strains. Most infections are self-limiting and if you have a healthy immune system, the HPV will clear on it's own with in 2 years or so. If you happen to get the actual warts, you can have them removed

lively is giving us all a language lesson.  The funny thing is that (s)he's right.  The fact is that not understanding the English language and the languages from whence it springs is costing us our freedom.

As Thomas Jefferson said, "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free."

For clarity, your birth certificate is registered with "Labor Statistics."  That means that because there is no such thing as money, you are a source of labor and nothing more.  Feel free to e-mail me for the skinny on all of the above.

It starts with understanding language (which is actually the wrong word for it).

lively, thanks for bringing this information into this forum.  It's very interesting the play on words that the average citizen knows nothing about. The day you obtain a birth certificate in the United States, you have become property of the United States.  It's a fact and that fact is deceitfully withhheld from public knowledge.

Ask any lawyer (not attorney).

After spending 28 days (9 days in a coma and 14 days on a ventilator) in the hospital, following the Gardisil vaccine, my 22 year old daughter is still not recovered, after 5 months.  ADEM (acute disseminated encephalomyelitis) should be added to the possible side effects.....

s.s,

What a horrible outcome! And your daughter is beyond her teen-age years, when presumably the body (including the immune system) it not yet completely mature. Thank you for sharing this very painful information, and let it be a lesson to all who read this message. I hope that your daughter makes a full recovery, and that could still take a while longer. Excellent nutrition is paramount for her recovery. BTW, I think that she should join a class-action lawsuit. There must be at least one already in the works.

There are legal ways a parent can reject vaccinations for children under 18. Another post on this particular topic contains a link. ALWAYS REMEMBER that in spite of what your state, county, or local jurisdiction says, vaccinations cannot be forced on children (or adults). BUT, that said, a parent MUST complete and submit to the child's school the proper paperwork for opting out of one or more vaccines to make sure that the child will be admitted to the school. Of course, school attendance IS mandatory from ages 5-6 to 16 (unless you homeschool).

I am so sorry to hear your daughter is so ill. The greed that we are seeing has reached epidemic proportions.



 
Posted On May 12, 2008

s.s.,

I send my concern but also hope for your daughter that she makes a full recovery. So sorry to hear she was part of this horrendous attack on our children.

I was almost talked into getting this vaccination for all 5 of my daughters when it first came out. Thank goodness I had the good sense to reject it, even without all of this information (it was before I discovered Dr. Mercola). We also rejected the normal baby vaccinations for our second child many years ago after seeing my first child have a  violent seizure with a very high fever after a regular round of "normal" vaccinations at 4 months old. I do send your daughter our best and hope she makes a full recovery quickly.

s.s - This makes me so sad to hear.  I am so sorry your daughter and the entire family have fallen victim to the guinea-pig way of testing vaccines.

This just breaks my heart.
