An
Interview with Dr. Diane M. Harper, HPV Expert
Do
you believe that the Gardasil vaccine, as it currently
stands, could present more risks to a young girl or woman than the
possibility of cervical cancer?
"Pap smears have
never killed anyone. Pap smears are an
effective screening tool to prevent cervical cancer. Pap smears alone
prevent more cervical cancers than can the vaccines alone.
Gardasil
is associated with serious adverse events, including
death. If Gardasil is given to 11 year olds, and the vaccine does not
last at least fifteen years, then there is no benefit - and only risk -
for the young girl. Vaccinating will not reduce the population
incidence of cervical cancer if the woman continues to get Pap
screening throughout her life.
Has the
original Gardasil marketing campaign of "one less"
muddied the waters and misinformed the public, who heretofore believed
that a Pap smear was sufficient to protect them from cervical cancer?
"If women were participating in Pap
screening, or if as a
parent you educated your daughter to seek Pap screening at the
appropriate age (21 years) for her entire life, then she would have
been very unlikely to be at risk for being "one" and would not be "one
less." She would not have been "one" to begin with!
Yes,
the marketing campaign was designed to incite the greatest
fear possible in parents, so that there would be uptake of the vaccine.
If parents and girls were told the benefits and harms of Pap screening
and HPV vaccines as described above, an informed and valued decision
would have been able to be made. Many may have chosen to continue with
a lifetime of Pap screening and forgo the vaccines, with the unknowns
of duration of efficacy and safety unable to be answered for many more
years."
reported
reactions have been:
injection
site pain, rash,
headache, hives, allergies, hair-loss, pain, welts,
swelling, passing out, fainting, redness, nausea, dizziness, diarrhea,
tremors and seizures, vomiting, hot, tingling, shortness of breath,
muscle spasms, panic attack, itching, blurry vision, fever, fatigue,
joint pain, Bell's palsy, numbness, menstrual cycle affected, speech
affected, pityriasis, racing heart, gential warts, severe migraines,
lethargic, muscle twitching, blood pressure affected, anaphylactic
reaction, abdominal pain, chest pain, possible arthritis, pale.
Also possible pregnancy related issues as well.
In
extreme rare cases, death.
It appears while some
do react straight away to the first dose, for many I'm reading it is
the second and especially the third dose.
This would confirm my
thoughts on over vaccinating, particularly the babies and children of a
young age in the US with so many vaccines for this and that.
This clearly is
causing a major problem, of that there can be no doubt.
Of all the vaccines,
it seems currently that the HPV type, sort, like Gardasil and possibly
the UK version of GSK's Cervarix are among the worst.
Often nearly every
line is Gardasil, then after a bit it jumps and spaces out.
I've left out
hundreds of cases by the time I've completed 2009, maybe more, due to
repeat in nature of symptoms, or because not so severe or determined to
be 100% the vaccines fault, because they were suffering such and such
at the time, on other medication, other than vaccine related, as I've
included those that have had another vaccine, whether at the same time
or not, as the Gardasil one.
Jenny Tetlock Has Passed Away
Jenny
Tetlock, a young girl who developed a mysterious, paralyzing illness
following a Gardasil injection, passed away on March 15. Jenny likely
suffered from a pediatric form of Lou Gehrig’s disease known as ALS or
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Ever
since Jenny became ill after receiveing a Gardasil shot at age
13, her parents have been looking into the link between the vaccine and
disease that ultimately claimed their daughter’s life. Her mom
and dad
have been in contact with two other sets of parents whose daughters
also seem to have been stricken with what seems to be ALS following
Gardasil injections.
Now, US News & World Report says U.S.
Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) scientists have met with Jenny’s neurologists and
are looking into the possibility of a vaccine playing a role in her
ALS. The Centers for Disease Control also plans on reviewing its
adverse-event database—VAERS—for cases in which nonGardasil injections
led to ALS or other neurological problems.
One
parents concerns below
02/23/2009,MN,10.0,,,F,02/17/2009,
My daughter started to get restless in
the legs and had many headaches. She was twitching and couldn't stop
from jerking movements in head and legs.
We thought maybe she got a hold of some
kind of drug. The doctors said she has rheumatic fever. This is
triggered by strep throat. The only problem she tested negative for
that.
Now she can't even walk. She has no
hunger and is very depressed. 10 years old and making drugs that take
healthy kids and turn them into this. I didn't like the idea of my
child taking this drug and my wife only did because the doctor said he
highly recommended it.
Well now that this has happened I have
found out that they have had 21 deaths in 2 years. Thanks for telling
us that in the side effects. I don't see anything mentioned about this.
My daughter got only one dose and was
set to get her second when this happened. This drug needs to be taking
off the market. I don't want to see another family go through what we
are going through. She has missed 3 weeks of school and I don't see her
recovering anytime soon. 1 death is too many and I know that there are
many out there that will be permanently disabled over this drug.
PLEASE TAKE THIS DRUG OFF THE MARKET. I
will continue to spread the word out to Family & Friends in hope
that they won't put their child in the hands of this drug maker.
GARDASIL needs to be stopped.
Vac's comments:
Time
and time again I read similar to that above, about how the parent did
not know.
There
are risks and adverse reactions, side effects, that sometimes can even
prove fatal.
My
mission is to make parents and children aware of those risks.
So
that then they can weigh up whether they wish to continue with having
the vaccine.
I
believe the reason those administering it do not fully disclose this,
is simple.
If
someone was told about the possibility of death, or any of the other
disabilitating injuries caused by these jabs, they would be more
inclined not to want it then.
This
would cause obvious conern for those involved, especially the
manufacturers, who I still believe on the whole for them, boils down to
money, money, money.
So
sadly, if they are failing to do the job, I am doing it for them.
The
hosting and so forth cost me over 36 pounds for 12 months, but I am not
asking for donations.
I'm
not interested in money, all I want to do is get the message out to
prevent more children suffering and adults, especially at the hands of
the HPV type vaccines, which appears from my research to be among the
worst of all vaccines that I'm aware of currently on the market.
Another
one not happy:
03/02/2009,,16.0,,,F,02/15/2009,"My
daughter received her 3rd injection of GARDASIL vaccine on Feb. 9th
2009. She had severe headaches ever since. We took her to the
emergency room on Feb 13th. They ran a series of tests which
included a brain scan.
Nothing abnormal showed but she never got rid of her headache. To this
day she is fatigued, dizzy, has headaches, blurry vision and arm pain.
These side effects were never mentioned yet when I looked on the web
many people said they had the same side effects after the vaccine. I am
taking her to her pediatrician tomorrow to have him evaluate her again
and we will go from there."
Yet another one
05/18/2009,,17.0,,,F,05/12/2009,
"Daughter received
first GARDASIL shot in June 2008. She passed out and hit her head
getting a concussion -the Dr believed-. She had to stay in bed for over
a week. She had severe headaches and neck pain. After the second shot,
in September she also went to bed for about a week and a half. She had
achiness all over especially in legs and stomach. The doctor ran CBC
and xrays but could only find a slightly elevated protein level in the
urine at this time. Because of these, she did not receive third
vaccine. Over the winter, her toes started turning blue. She is now
being tested for lupus. I will know the results in about one week, but
if she has it I am sure it is from GARDASIL. This is a very dangerous
vaccine and I wish I would have researched it more before forcing my
daughter to receive it. I will never forgive myself for making her take
this vaccine against her will.
Info
concerning Gardasil from:
http://www.drugs.com/gardasil.html
Before
receiving Gardasil
Before receiving Gardasil, tell your doctor if you have:
-
high fever, or signs of infection;
-
a weak immune system;
-
a bleeding or blood-clotting disorder, such as
hemophilia; or
-
if you are taking a blood thinner such as warfarin
(Coumadin).
FDA pregnancy category B. This medication is not
expected to be harmful to an unborn baby.
Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during
treatment. It is not known whether Gardasil passes into breast milk or
if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not receive Gardasil without
telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Gardasil will not protect against sexually transmitted
diseases such
as chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HIV, syphilis, and trichomoniasis.
Gardasil will not prevent diseases caused by HPV types
other than
types 6, 11, 16, and 18. There are over 100 different types of HPV.
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these
signs of an
allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face,
lips, tongue, or throat. You may feel faint after receiving this
vaccine, especially within the first 15 minutes after injection.
Other Gardasil side effects may include:
-
pain, swelling, redness, or itching where the shot
was given;
-
mild fever;
-
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, upset stomach;
-
dizziness, tired feeling;
-
runny or stuffy nose, sore throat, cough; or
-
joint or muscle pain.
However we know from those reported incidents what nonsense the above
is, as it appears it hardly covers half the reactions many have had.
What
other drugs will affect Gardasil?
Before receiving Gardasil, tell the doctor about all
other vaccines you have recently received.
Also tell the doctor if you have recently received drugs
or treatments that can weaken the immune system, including:
-
an oral, nasal, inhaled, or injectable steroid
medicine;
-
medications to treat psoriasis, rheumatoid
arthritis, or other
autoimmune disorders, such as azathioprine (Imuran), efalizumab
(Raptiva), etanercept (Enbrel), leflunomide (Arava), and others; or
-
medicines to treat or prevent organ transplant
rejection, such as
basiliximab (Simulect), cyclosporine (Sandimmune, Neoral, Gengraf),
muromonab-CD3 (Orthoclone), mycophenolate mofetil (CellCept), sirolimus
(Rapamune), or tacrolimus (Prograf).
This list is not complete and there may be other drugs
that can
interact with Gardasil. Tell your doctor about all the prescription and
over-the-counter medications you have received. This includes vitamins,
minerals, herbal products, and drugs prescribed by other doctors. Do
not start using a new medication without telling your doctor.

Lots
of videos from
You Tube showing the harmful effects of vaccines such as Gardasil and
Cervarix, and a whole lot more, including videos of those that have
been effected by them as well.

The
following information was from VAERS itself http://vaers.hhs.gov
This is concerning 2009 only and Gardasil jab only, reported events.
The adverts my say be one less, but for many it's one more, one more in
pain.
Some
I may leave out, so not all are listed here. What is listed here alone
is huge enough though as you can see.
Also, please be patient I may be adding more information as you read
this, please bookmark, add to Favs.

being blamed for leaving girl in a wheelchair
The squalene in MF59
is not the only cause for concern. One of its
components, Tween80 (polysorbate 80)
is considered by vaccine
manufacturers to be “inert” but is far from it. A study published in
December, 2005 discovered that Tween80 can cause anaphylaxis, a
sometimes fatal reaction characterized by a sharp drop in blood
pressure, hives, and breathing difficulties. Researchers concluded that
the severe reaction was not a typical allergic response characterized
by the combination of IgE antibodies and the release of histamines; it
was caused by a serious disruption that had occurred within the immune
system.(5)

most recent event, one of many throughout the past 9 months. This date
reflects the diagnosis given by a neurologist of Parsonage Turner
syndrome, a rare neurological syndrome which impairs her left arm and
shoulder which she first noticed with chest, arm and shoulder pain in
March. It has left her left arm and shoulder weak. Her left scapula is
markedly bigger and different than her right. My daughter received her
first GARDASIL shot in August, right before she left for college.
Within two weeks she began having loose bowel movements, fatigue, and
complaining of her ""legs feeling heavy"". She is a runner and was in
excellent physical condition. By early October, she had her thyroid
levels tested. Normal levels are between 0.5 and 4.5. Her level was 24
leaving extremely fatigued. By the time I got her home and seen by her
own physician the levels had dropped dramatically and seemed to have
remain now in the normal level. This ""acute thyroiditis"" is caused by
a ""virus"". Shortly thereafter, she began have dizzy spells, nausea,
near fainting spells, often but not exclusively concurring in the
middle of the night while lying down heart racing and dysregulation of
blood pressure. Along with nausea she had and continues to have
burbing/acid reflux symptoms. She was hospitalized by a cardiologist
and they found nothing wrong with her heart. They did try her on a bp
regulation medication-FLORINET-which seem to make things worse not
better. She was referred to and electro physiologist, who met with her
but only recommended that she continue to monitor her bp. She had
tingling in her face and arms, toothache, nausea - which she has-,
migraine like headaches, and then most recently the diagnosis of
Parsonage Turner syndrome. Most of these symptoms came and went...the
dizzy spells lasted for about 3 months, the headaches have not occurred

there is NO CHANCE of any side effects.. 3 times I asked her BEFORE the
injection. As soon as my daughter got the shot within SECONDS she felt
sick. She became hot and clammy. At the check out desk at the Dr's, she
felt very weak and dizzy..I asked the receptionists to call back and
tell the Dr how my daughter was feeling, the Dr said it would pass.
Within 10 minutes after the shot my daughter had extremely bad leg pain
on the right side and could not walk. When we got home she felt very
SAD and tired. During the night my daughter started throwing up. I
called the ER and they said that that was not a normal reaction to an
injection. That was Monday night, today is Wednesday and she still is
having A LOT of symptoms and problems including muscle weakness,
feeling sick, nauseous, chest pain, swollen glands, stomach pain. She
went for blood work today and tomorrow a visit to the Dr who gave her
the shot. This is CRAZY, she is suffering for what reason???? Because a
Dr gave an injection WITHOUT either knowing- ignorantly-what can happen
as a side effect on just not TELLING us. THIS MEDICATION SHOULD BE
REMOVED..I my daughter should continue to suffer ANYTHING from this
injection the makers will be SUED by US. 6/9/09 Medical records

Lymphoma in women who were vaccinated. How many people have to die or
get seriously sick for this vaccine to be investigated? I known of
several women who became sick with Lymphoma months following
vaccination with GARDASIL. I do not believe this is a mere coincidence.
