Of course. I could have told you this. But its like the Pill (one form of which has been put on the WHO list of grade 1 carcinogenic – in lay mans terms, this means it ain’t good for not causing cancer) no one really hears about this because its to do with ‘reproductive rights.’
So even if there is a risk, shush it up, don’t want to be seen to be ‘against reproductive rights.’
Pffft. If there was this sort of risk associated with panadol you can be sure there would be people screaming from the roof tops.
From the article at CBS:
Dr. Diane Harper says young girls and their parents should receive more complete warnings (does this mean that those cheesy ad’s on New Zealand TV about taking your daughter to get the vaccine might be misleading?) before receiving the vaccine to prevent cervical cancer. Dr. Harper helped design and carry out the Phase II and Phase III safety and effectiveness studies to get Gardasil approved, and authored many of the published, scholarly papers about it. She has been a paid speaker and consultant to Merck. It’s highly unusual for a researcher to publicly criticize a medicine or vaccine she helped get approved.
Dr. Harper joins a number of consumer watchdogs, vaccine safety advocates, and parents who question the vaccine’s risk-versus-benefit profile. She says data available for Gardasil shows that it lasts five years; there is no data showing that it remains effective beyond five years. (another problem is that it lulls people into a false sense of security -this vaccine does not work against ALL strains of the virus which can lead to cervical cancer).
Am I anti gardasil? No, provided that it is given with full information about exactly WHAT it protects against, for HOW LONG and any potential side effects.
