A Citizen's Review of the CDC's HPV Vaccine Ad, "You Are the Key to HPV Cancer Prevention"
Reading about Dr. James Lyons-Weiler's petition to the FTC to stop the misleading Merck Gardasil 9 ads reminded me of the CDC's Youtube HPV ad published in 2013, titled "You Are the Key to HPV Cancer Prevention".
Before this 5 minute 34 second ad so rudely interrupted my Youtube viewing some months ago, I didn't know that our government was using our tax dollars to sell pharmaceuticals on Youtube. The ad ran before the 1/2 hour long arts and crafts video, then broke into the video again 1/3 of the way through, and then just before the end of the show, I was confronted with another propaganda piece titled "CDC Grand Rounds Beyond the Data: Reducing the Burden of HPV". I wouldn't mind if they were putting out honest helpful information, but these campaigns are anything but. (And how many Youtube channels insert their videos into other channels? Is that a thing or is it just that the government gets to do that?)
Why is this bad? It's bad because this is a government produced advertisement aimed at selling us a drug, using our money, with false and misleading information. It is designed to scare us into accepting the drug, for our children, no less, without informed consent. Should the government of a free society be in the business of drugging its citizens? Of course not. But that is exactly what they're doing.
The ad goes like this:
First, we see an animated creaky blue door opening. We hear foreboding music and thunder as we see a rapidly advancing shadow of a monster vine invade a room. The number "14,000,000" fades in, then we see "Every Year in the US 14,000,000 people become infected with HPV" followed by the next screen "26,000" then "causing 26,000 HPV related cancers".
By now it is clear that we are in a child's room. It is blue and we are looking at the top of a dresser with a toy airplane, socks, and guitar. Then over the boy's room we read "9,000 HPV related cancers in men and". Then, as the monster-is-going-to-eat-your-child music continues, we see a girl's room - pink - top of dresser with ballerina statue and flowers in a vase and the words "17,000 HPV related cancers in women".
Next screen we see a person in an easy chair with a laptop on his or her lap (a place where laptops are not supposed to be because they irradiate the gonads that this ad and this agency are supposed to be protecting the health of) and books on the end table, the top one labeled "math" (so it's an older teen or young adult) and on the far wall we read in large bold font: "4000 WOMEN WILL DIE each year from cervical cancer".
On the next screen, the music changes to an upbeat happy tempo, as we read "Most of these CANCERS could be PREVENTED by HPV vaccine" (next screen) "YOU can CLOSE the DOOR to cancer". The door closes, the monster vine is shut out, and the tone switches from horror dark to bright and sunny. HPV vaccine saves the children.
Nice fairy tale. The only thing missing is Paul Offit dressed as the bogeyman (no costume necessary) leaping out from under the bed. Not to overlook the talents of the very scary Dorit Reiss, who has proven to be a fine bogeyman herself. For double horror Offit and Reiss could jump out from under the bed together holding hands. But I imagine they left these two ghouls out of this particular production because it would have been too hard for the viewer to recover from the fright of seeing them in order to take in the rest of the sales pitch.
The introduction wraps up in the next screen where we hear the first voice that sounds like a little girl, telling us: "HPV vaccine is cancer prevention. Vaccinate your kids at 11-12 years". (The subliminal message - 'vaccinate me Mommy and Daddy'. )
But they're not done with us yet. To secure the sale, two doctors and one cancer patient then take turns telling us how wonderful, effective and safe the HPV vaccine is and how our children will die if they don't get it and they'll hate us for not getting it for them right now.
The first doctor is Daron Ferris, MD, according to the screen: "Professor, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Georgia Regents University Cancer Center". You'd think he's either a gynecologist or an obstetrician or an oncologist. None of the above. He is a Family Practitioner (who is an OB/GYN professor?). He starts out with:
"To tell a patient that they have cancer, particularly a cancer that could have been entirely prevented, is, uh, terribly depressing. Um, I've shared tears, we've cried and it's something that, that's, um, that's not easy to do. This March we had a 23 year old who had an abnormal pap smear that suggested cancer. Well, unfortunately, when she came in and we tried to find her cervix, we couldn't. Everything on the inside was cancer. By October she was dead and she left a 5 year old child alone to be raised. So, it's devastating not only for the risk of potential death, but the morbidity associated with biopsies, with surgical procedures and the real threat of potential inability to have children thereafter."
(In his concern for patients' ability to have children, Dr. Ferris doesn't mention the cases of premature ovarian failure in HPV vaccine recipients.)
Then we see "Jacquelyn" a 37 year old cervical cancer survivor, who tells us (excerpt):
"What I would tell moms who are facing the decision to give their children the HPV vaccination is please do not hesitate. It offers such great protection, and if you can spare your children the pain and um, the pain and just the constant worry that comes with a cancer diagnosis, I would say absolutely do it. HPV is so pervasive that it can really effect anyone at any time...I see this HPV vaccine as cancer prevention and I will do everything I can to prevent my kids from having to go through what I went through. They have their whole lives ahead of them and I can't protect them from everything but I will protect them from HPV-related cancer."
(Tell that to the family of Olympic athlete Sarah Tait, who died at age 33 of cervical cancer after getting the HPV vaccine when younger. Which of the two women ended up being "one less", the one who took the vaccine or the one who didn't?)
Next up is Yabo Beysolow, MD, MPH, Medical Officer, CDC. Dr. Beysolow identifies herself as a pediatrician who tells us that she has given her own two daughters the HPV vaccine, therefore we should too. She attempts to manipulate parents with:
"...I really do not want them to come to me 20 years from now and say, "Mom, I have cervical cancer and you did nothing to protect me."
Dr. Beysolow then targets health care professionals, many of whom have been reluctant to give the HPV vaccine. Like she's training used car salesmen in the latest pitch, she coaches:
"And it's so easy to just say with conviction and say to them, "This is a safe vaccine. It's an effective vaccine. I give it to *my* kids. I feel that it's important that you protect your children at this young age with this vaccine." There's no reason for us to wait and miss an opportunity to vaccinate."
(Dr. Beysolow needs to pay a visit to Sanevax.org to understand the many reasons why doctors and patients should avoid not only this vaccine, but shameless drug pushers like her.)
Then again we see in large font: "HPV vaccine is CANCER PREVENTION"
To finish, we are taken back to Dr. Ferris who tells us:
"So now we have a vaccine that can prevent cancer and why it's not given to so many young individuals to prevent these horrible things from happening. I have no idea. So, it's very important that we follow the recommendations and vaccinate people early. And not only vaccinate them early, but it's critically important that they return for the second dose and also the third dose. Please don't hesitate. Get them to roll up their sleeves and vaccinate. The only question in this whole issue, if a patient comes in and has questions about the vaccine, the only question is which arm do you want it in?" [he says with a broad creepy smile]
Then there's one more screen again with large font "HPV vaccine is cancer prevention" www.cdc.gov/vaccines/teens
I don't know how much input Dr. Ferris had into what he said, but the CDC is telling Americans through him and the others, not to ask questions. It is unbelievable that the agency that is supposed to be setting the highest health care standards is saying that there is no need for informed consent when getting this vaccine. They come right out and say that you do not need to know what is being done to your child and you should not ask.
It is important to note that Dr. Daron Ferris is a highly paid spokesman for Merck, the manufacturer of Gardasil:

Besides the ad's failure to acknowledge Dr. Ferris' considerable conflict of interest, what else does the ad leave out? For starters, the ad doesn't mention any of the many adverse effects, deaths, disability, and unbearable suffering that has been caused by HPV vaccines, including, as previously mentioned, premature ovarian failure. It doesn't say that the vaccine makes some recipients faint and seize. It leaves out the fact that women must still continue to get Pap tests, that the vaccine can't protect against all the many strains of HPV, that the strains that the vaccine does not include could become more virulent as a result of receiving this vaccine, that about 95% of HPV infections clear up within 2 years without any intervention and without doing any harm, that cervical cancer has traditionally been a slow growing cancer and that most cases can be cured if caught early, that HPV expert and principal investigator on the original Gardasil research, Dr. Diane Harper, has voiced many reasons why one would not want to get this vaccine and that according to the American Cancer Society, most cases of cervical cancer in this country have occurred in women who did not get regular pap testing:
"Can cervical cancer be prevented without a HPV vaccine?
In most cases, yes, cervical cancer can be prevented even without a vaccine. Cervical cancer screening done according to American Cancer Society guidelines and with proper follow up will prevent most but not all cases of cervical cancer. Pap tests (with or without the HPV test) can find cervix cell changes early, before they become cervical cancer. These changed cervix cells can then be treated to keep them from becoming cancer.
When cancer screening guidelines are followed most, but not all, cervical cancers are found at an early enough stage that they are easily cured. Most cervical cancers in the United States are diagnosed in women who have never had a Pap test, or who haven’t had a Pap test in many years.
Last Medical Review: 04/09/2014
Last Revised: 02/03/2016"
For decades, the recommendation was for yearly Pap testing. I can remember many public health campaigns over the years drumming home the point that a yearly Pap test was absolutely critical for cervical cancer prevention and cure. But now that there is a cervical cancer vaccine that has not been proven to prevent cancer, that only is expected to cover 10% or less of HPV strains (if it works at all), that may in fact cause the non vaccine strains to become more virulent, new guidelines call for Pap testing every 3 - 5 years.
Since they have begun manipulating the human microbiome via vaccination, they're now going to pay LESS attention? Just not going to look as often? Cost of yearly Pap tests is no excuse for not monitoring the effects of the expensive HPV vaccine when yearly Pap tests have always been the standard of care.
And in the CDC ad, didn't we just hear crocodile tears Ferris make the case that every girl should get the HPV vaccine because he had a 23 year old patient who was diagnosed in March who died by December? How does that fit with the new guidelines? The CDC is contradicting themselves between what they present in their new guidelines and in their HPV ad. Is it slow growing over 10 years with no need for yearly testing or is it a 7 month prognosis from diagnosis to death using the best available treatment? And look at this from Web MD May 2015:
"Annual screening is no longer recommended because of the high rate of false-positive results -- when a Pap smear result is abnormal -- tied to frequent screening. There is a long lag time between the development of precancerous lesions and invasive cervical cancer -- about 10 years -- so less-frequent screening should still be able to spot the disease in time, the authors explain."
IS IT ME?
"Too many false positives"? What about the true positives that will be missed because the test wasn't done at all? If there were so many problems with overtreatment due to false positives, why did it take so many decades (and introduction of a vaccine) for them to issue new guidelines?
The CDC and other agencies also recommend not to test women under 30 for HPV. That's the group that would have been vaccinated for HPV. Isn't this the population that they would want to follow closely to see how the vaccine has affected them long term? You know, like when a person takes a course of antibiotics and then goes for a follow-up culture to see if the infection cleared up? We don't follow-up when it's a vaccine? Granted, HPV testing might not have always been necessary without the vaccine, because prevaccine we knew that most women cleared infection within 2 years. But with the vaccine, do we know what's going to happen?
The HPV vaccine is the second supposed cancer prevention vaccine, after the hepatitis B vaccine was introduced decades ago. But liver cancer has increased since the hepatitis B vaccine has been widely used. From the CDC:
"New liver cancer cases and deaths are on the rise in the United States. Rates of new liver cancer cases went up 38% from 2003 to 2012. Almost 23,000 people died from liver cancer in 2012. This is a 56% increase in deaths since 2003. Men died from liver cancer at more than twice the rate of women."
There may be multiple factors driving the increase, but it should be noted that the first cancer to be targeted by a vaccine has dramatically increased in prevalence. Will the HPV vaccine be as successful in "preventing" cervical cancer?
In a 2013 letter to the editor of the journal, Infectious Agents and Cancer, titled, "HPV vaccines and cancer prevention, science versus activism", Lucija Tomljeovic et al. question unethical and false HPV vaccine advertising:
"1. HPV vaccines have not been demonstrated to prevent any cervical cancers so why are they being promoted as cervical cancer vaccines?...
- Why are women not informed of the fact that in some circumstances (i.e., prior exposure to vaccine-targeted and non-targeted HPV types), HPV vaccination may accelerate the progression of cervical abnormalities [4,26-28]?"
As with other vaccines, the Gardasil 9 package insert states on line 13.1:
"GARDASIL 9 has not been evaluated for the potential to cause carcinogenicity or genotoxicity."
The CDC July 8, 2016 Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, "Human Papillomavirus–Associated Cancers — United States, 2008–2012", describes inadequate population level Pap test screening and increasing HPV related cancer incidence since release of the HPV vaccine in 2006 (caps, my emphasis):
"Each year during 2008–2012, an average of 38,793 HPV-associated cancers were diagnosed, including 23,000 among females and 15,793 among males; 79% of these were attributable to HPV. Compared with a previous analysis, which reported 33,369 HPV-associated cancer cases diagnosed each year during 2004–2008, the results of this analysis demonstrate an overall INCREASE in HPV-associated cancer incidence, from 10.8 per 100,000 persons during 2004–2008 to 11.7 per 100,000 persons during 2008–2012, despite a slight decrease in the rate of cervical carcinoma (4). Part of this increase is because of the inclusion of additional subsites for oropharyngeal cancer; however, the increase persisted when these subsites were excluded from analysis..."
Most cervical cancers are preventable with regular screening for precancerous lesions among women aged 21–65 years linked with follow-up for abnormal test results (8); there are currently no effective population-based screening strategies for the other HPV-associated cancers. The Healthy People 2020 target for cervical cancer screening is 93%**; however in 2013, only 80.7% of women reported up-to-date cervical cancer screening, with even lower rates noted among Asians, Hispanics, women aged 51–65 years, foreign-born, uninsured, and publicly insured women (9)."
It is important to note that by up-to-date cervical cancer screening, they mean Pap testing every 3-5 years. Of course, the authors conclude that more HPV vaccination is the answer (more vaccination is always the CDC's answer). But I wonder if these statistics represent preliminary evidence of an unexpected effect of the vaccine on HPV related cancer incidence, an outcome that the CDC would not even consider.
Every other class of drug marketed to the public must clearly state potential adverse side effects. Not vaccines. The doctors in the CDC ad emphasize the vaccine's safety. Here is an excerpt from the Gardasil 9 package insert that contradicts the CDC's claim (Gardasil was approved in 2006. Gardasil 9 replaced the original Gardasil in December 2014):
6.2 Postmarketing Experience There is limited post-marketing experience following administration of GARDASIL 9. However, the post-marketing safety experience with GARDASIL is relevant to GARDASIL 9 since the vaccines are manufactured similarly and contain the same antigens from HPV types 6, 11, 16, and 18. Because these events were reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not possible to reliably estimate their frequency or to establish a causal relationship to vaccine exposure. The following adverse experiences have been spontaneously reported during post-approval use of GARDASIL and may also be seen in post-marketing experience with GARDASIL 9: Blood and lymphatic system disorders: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, lymphadenopathy. Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders: Pulmonary embolus. Gastrointestinal disorders: Nausea, pancreatitis, vomiting. General disorders and administration site conditions: Asthenia, chills, death, fatigue, malaise. Immune system disorders: Autoimmune diseases, hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions, bronchospasm, and urticaria. Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders: Arthralgia, myalgia. Nervous system disorders: Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, dizziness, Guillain-Barré syndrome, headache, motor neuron disease, paralysis, seizures, syncope (including syncope associated with tonic- 10 clonic movements and other seizure-like activity) sometimes resulting in falling with injury, transverse myelitis. Infections and infestations: Cellulitis. Vascular disorders: Deep venous thrombosis.
The CDC ad does not reveal that Danish scientists have connected serious HPV vaccine reactions with elite athleticism, or that the Japanese government withdrew their recommendation of the vaccine over concerns of serious reactions in 2013.
In addition to withdrawing their recommendation, the Japanese government and public health authorities took extensive further action to protect Japanese health with regard to HPV vaccine injury. By August 2015, the Japanese Medical Association (JMA) and the Japanese Association of Medical Sciences (JAMS) jointly approved a 19 page guideline for the evaluation and medical management of HPV vaccine reactions that was distributed to Japanese health care workers specially trained to recognize HPV vaccine injury. The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare issued a list of at least one hospital in each prefecture where patients could go for help with HPV vaccine symptoms. The Ministry also published HPV vaccine injury information for the public and set up a telephone hotline.
Compare this to how Americans are being treated. Our government is not only recommending the vaccine, but is aggressively marketing it to us while insisting that the vaccine is completely safe. Here, despite paying numerous injury claims through the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, our government tells us and the medical community that any reactions are either a coincidence or hysteria. American vaccine injury victims are lucky to find a knowledgeable physician. There certainly is no vaccine injury hotline and there are no hospitals specially designated to care for victims. Our besieged public have been continuously bombarded with state legislation designed to push the HPV vaccine. State health departments are tracking individual uptake and are sending high sales pressure letters to parents. Our citizens are having to fight mandates at every turn in a constant battle for health care freedom and to ward off assault by unwanted vaccination.
When enough parents didn't comply, some state governments undermined parental authority by pushing the vaccine on children while in school. In some states, including California, children as young as 12 years old can be vaccinated without their parents' knowledge or consent and without their physician's knowledge. California has made it the child's responsibility to inform his doctor about the nature of any "confidential" medical interventions received so that no one but the child has knowledge of those treatments. When the child has a reaction or dies, no one, neither the parent, nor the child's physician, nor the coroner, has knowledge of the vaccination (for this reason alone, how can anyone who knows what democrats did in California vote for a democrat?).
In November 2015, Medscape published, "Chronic Symptoms After HPV Vaccination: Danes Start Study", that revealed physicians' clinical experience with the controversial vaccine and their rejection of CDC and European Medicine Agency's assurances of safety:
"Last week, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) announced that a task force found no causality between the vaccination and two sets of chronic symptom syndromes in girls and young women, which echoes previous reassurances from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Now, some clinicians and scientists say the EMA report is "not valid" and is marred by conflict of interest and reliance on already published data and are calling for an independent study of the association...."
"Svetlana Blitshteyn, MD, clinical assistant professor of neurology at the University at Buffalo School of Medicine in New York, runs a dysautonomia clinic in Getzville, New York. She has documented six cases of POTS after HPV vaccination (Eur J Neurol.2014;21:135-139), and has since seen about a dozen more. These patients present with POTS, small fiber neuropathy, fibromyalgia, chronic daily headache, and other disorders that began shortly after HPV vaccination, Dr Blitshteyn recently told Medscape Medical News.
"Most of these young women were healthy prior to vaccination, and many were competitive athletes. After developing postvaccination syndrome, these patients became very ill, experienced significant decline in functioning, and were unable to attend school, participate in their previous athletic activities, or maintain their grades," she added.
Now approached for a reaction to the EMA review findings, Dr Blitshteyn said: "I think we need a thorough investigation of the safety of the HPV vaccine with a special prospective study designed to address the question of whether HPV vaccine is associated with a higher incidence of POTS and CRPS than what would be expected to occur in the age and gender-matched population. Until such study is done by researchers with no relationship or affiliation with the pharmaceutical industry, there cannot be a claim made that there is no association between HPV vaccine and POTS or CRPS."...
"Those of us who are involved in the care of patients who developed post-HPV vaccine syndrome know that for these girls, getting HPV vaccine has not been life-saving, as the pharmaceutical industry and medical professionals have been claiming, but has been life-changing in the sense that these previously healthy girls became severely ill and disabled within days to weeks after vaccination," Dr Blitshteyn told Medscape Medical News.
"Additionally, there are a number of girls whose symptoms became progressively worse after each subsequent HPV vaccine injection, suggesting that there is evidence of rechallenge," she said."...
"With a large number of injured patients reported from Denmark, Japan, Mexico, United States, and the United Kingdom, the link between HPV vaccine and POTS/CRPS cannot be denied for these affected individuals, despite the conclusion of the EMA review," Dr Blitshteyn commented."
In 2004, then Senator Dave Weldon, MD, explained the CDC's conflict of interest in handling vaccine safety research and vaccine promotion in his speech before Congress about the autism epidemic (excerpt):
"The NIH has funded only a handful of studies over the past 2 years investigating vaccine safety issues. The CDC has the greatest responsibility in this area. Unfortunately, they have the greatest conflict of interest. The CDC's vaccine safety program amounts to a $30 million, million, a year program, and half of it goes to pay HMOs for access to the Vaccine Safety Database. The biggest conflict within the CDC is that they are also responsible for a $1 billion, $1 billion, vaccine promotion program. The CDC largely measures its success by high vaccination rates, and here lies the conflict. Any study raising concerns that there might be adverse reactions to some vaccines in some children has the ability to lower vaccine rates, and lower vaccination rates are in direct conflict with the CDC's top measurement of success. Clearly due to its overwhelming size and the manner in which the agency measures its success, the vaccine promotion program overshadows and influences the CDC's vaccine safety program. In fact, rightly or wrongly, the Vaccine Safety Office within the CDC is largely viewed by outside observers as nothing more than another arm of the vaccine promotion program, giving support to vaccine promotion policies and doing very little to investigate and better understand acute and chronic adverse reactions."
Dr. Weldon recommended:
"The NIH recently recognized the importance of moving patient safety monitoring out of the NIH. I believe the same should be done with vaccine monitoring. It should be completely removed from CDC's jurisdiction. The CDC is too conflicted to oversee this function."
That was in 2004. In 2016 we are still being subjected to increasingly intense unethical promotion of vaccines that have highly questionable safety testing, and are routinely given in combinations that have never been tested at all. The autism epidemic has continued to claim more lives while children's health overall continues to decline and our infant mortality rate increases. The CDC budget is still draining enormous sums of money from Americans while the CDC ignores the crisis that they created.
CDC scientist William Thompson confessed in 2014 that the CDC committed fraud on MMR research dating back to the time when Dr. Weldon gave his speech. The movie Vaxxed, From Cover-Up to Catastrophe, released in April, is successfully exposing CDC corruption and all these years later, again calls for vaccine research to be taken from the CDC. Hopefully, the truth brought out in this remarkable film will overcome the CDC's lies and will finally bring justice and desperately needed change. There is more to know about the HPV vaccine than what is discussed in this review. But I hope that the information provided here will help citizens to make an informed decision, because being truly informed is the key to preventing vaccine injury.

Abstract
Here I describe neurological symptoms of 62 girls who were immunized against the human papilloma virus (HPV). Most participants (61) are Colombian and received the quadrivalent HPV vaccine Gardasil and a girl from Mexico received the bivalent Cervarix vaccine. The average age was 14.5 years (SD 2.1). This survey reveals an overall pattern of peripheral nervous system damage as demonstrated by complaints of inflammatory and neuropathic pain syndromes in the head, back, chest, arms and legs. There were also sensory and motor syndromes with upper and lower limb numbness and tingling (paraesthesia), muscle weakness and difficulty walking (paresis) accompanied by tremors, muscle spasms and twitches (abnormal movements). Most symptoms appeared after the second vaccine dose, which agrees with greater antibody titers seen in booster dose immunizations. A severely ill 13-year old girl with similar complaints and history of immunization, had high serum auto-antibody titers against nerve tissue as well as marked clinical improvement after anti-inflammatory and antibody removal therapy (plasmapheresis and IVIg). This evidence prompts me to propose an autoimmune hypersensitivity type II reaction triggered by Gardasil whose batch-specific antigens await further research. The general disease pattern described here consistent with a demyelinating disorder might not apply to every girl thus each one should be diagnosed and treated individually. This humble survey hopes to uncover leads to help the investigation sought by the Colombian Higher Courts. WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE THE ROLE PLAYED BY HEALTH MINISTER ALEJANDRO GAVIRIA WHOSE INDISCRIMINATE MASSIVE IMMUNIZATION CAMPAIGN AS WELL AS ABSOLUTE NEGLECT AND OUTWARD MISHANDLING OF THE EPIDEMIC OF SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS MAKES HIM WORTHY OF CONSIDERATION FOR THE NOBEL PRIZE IN THE CATEGORY OF CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. WE HOPE THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT TAKES ACTION ON THIS ISSUE, TODAY A GLOBAL MATTER. We invite scientists worldwide to investigate HPV vaccine lots to understand this disease.

Do parents not have enough already to feel guilty about that now a commercial blames them for their children's cancer. Pretty disgusting.

"...These people are insane. It's got to be about more than money. There are easier ways to make money. I think they're just trying to kill us. Oh, and in Miami they're passing out DEET to pregnant women. DEET is highly neurotoxic. In another article I read that the gov't is going to "shut down" anyone selling all natural mosquito repellents, because they "don't work". Scary times we live in..."
Indeed. The above was the inevitable conclusion I sadly arrived at during all my years re investigating/researching the vaccine issue. Initially, I felt that Dr. Archie Kalokerinos was just plain wrong when he stated that he had concluded that the massive vaccine program was nothing more than a genocidal program.
I no longer feel Dr. Kalokerinos was misguided when he made that statement. It took me YEARS to arrive at this conclusion, though. But I truly feel in my heart of hearts, this is what is going on.

Thank you everyone for your great comments. These people are predators in every sense of the word. Look at the what's in the news today - Zika vaccine trials to begin. They are targeting young people of childbearing age. This article states that the vaccine will make the body make Zika virus that the body will make antibodies to. It's like we're living on the Island of Dr. Moreau. These people are insane. It's got to be about more than money. There are easier ways to make money. I think they're just trying to kill us. Oh, and in Miami they're passing out DEET to pregnant women. DEET is highly neurotoxic. In another article I read that the gov't is going to "shut down" anyone selling all natural mosquito repellents, because they "don't work". Scary times we live in.
"If successful, the NIH vaccine would ideally be given to women and teens of childbearing age and their sexual partners, Fauci said. "
"Scientists make DNA vaccines by genetically engineering a small, circular piece of genetic material — called a plasmid — that carries instructions for making two Zika virus proteins, Edupuganti said. After the vaccine is administered, a person's cells use the instructions to make Zika virus proteins, which assemble themselves into virus-like particles. The body then mounts an immune response to these particles, protecting people from future infections, Edupuganti said."
"Developing a vaccine for an ongoing epidemic is also challenging. Zika exploded in Latin America last year, striking a population with no natural immunity to the virus. Epidemics of new viruses often burn themselves out after a period of months, however, as more people become infected and develop lifelong immunity. By the time a vaccine is ready to be tested, there may not be enough cases to show whether it's effective."
(A population possessing natural immunity is only a problem to a predator wanting to sell a vaccine.)

If I understand correctly, cervical cancer rates are about 1.5 % mostly in women age 45 to 55.
The goal for Gardasil is 12 million doses a year... three doses for four million 11 year old girls and boys. which comes to about 12 million doses at $135 dollars a dose.
or 1.6 billion dollars a year for Merck.
It will be 35 years before they know if the US cancer rate has dropped...
It has been banned in France, Japan and never made it through testing in India..

This is excellent. Thank you!

I'm not sure why they chose "Gardasil" as a name for the vaccine. I hear "Guard as ill," or sometimes something more crude suggests itself.
"Cervarix" seems dubious too.

" Let's just say this book .. (Suzanne Humphries "Walking Dead) .. has reconfirmed my desire to steer clear of hospitals and doctors."
Literally scared the hell out of me to read how dangerous to one's health a lengthy stay in a hospital has become.
Posted by: Bob Moffit | August 03, 2016 at 10:45 AM
Bob Moffit,
I, too, am reading Dr. Suzanne Humphries book "Rising from the Dead". What a read! I highly recommend that people purchase a copy, or more to share, not only to support this courageous woman who has now spent the last many years of her life exposing what an incredibly dangerous sham and racket vaccines are, but who now is boldly exposing the unbelievable, unethical, and frankly, incredibly frightening things that go on inside the walls of hospitals. She also exposes just how flying-by-the-seat-of-our-pants much of medicine is, how what one doctor does or prescribes often results in one or more doctors and problems being involved, and how "policy" trumps patient care. Let's just say this book has reconfirmed my desire to steer clear of hospitals and doctors.
I have just finished the part of the book where she recounts reporting many adverse vaccine reactions in patients to VAERS. Anyone who thinks that program is in any way working as it was intended needs to have a read, be horrified, and remind themselves that NO PART of our nation's vaccine program can be trusted, including the part where they are charged with post-vaccination surveillance to ensure the safety and efficacy of each and every vaccine.

@ Linda
"I am an OB nurse and want to learn all I can about vaccine safety or as I am discovering, lack of vaccine safety. so I can be a more effective voice for truth in my department. I am met with either silence, arrogance, denial of risks, embellishment of the disease stats. from my medical colleagues."
I am in the process of reading Suzanne Humphries "Rising from the Dead" .. which describes exactly the same "arrogance and denial" of her medical colleagues that so frustrates her. This is printed on the book cover ....
"Suzanne Humphries earned a degree in physics before heading to medical school, later specializing in internal medicine, then nephrology. This young doctor's dreams of healing people were gradually crushed as she realized she would have to sell her soul to protocols and conform to policies, which made no scientific sense and endangered patients. Like many doctors, she was on the way to becoming one f the walking dead"
"In 2009, her stand against medical policies, which injured her patients and violated her ethical integrity, resulted in peer hostility and ostracism. By 2011, depressed and deflated, life was difficult in all directions .. until she found peace through an unexpected path and a new friend".
I have to stop reading at times .. because what Suzanne describes as "callous indifferent medical personnel" and "medical treatments that have proven to be as more problem than solution" .. is too hard to take all at once.
Linda .. be confident that you are not ALONE in your battle to be a "more effective voice of truth in your department". Your battle is well worth fighting for.

Excellent article with a broad sweeping approach. I am an OB nurse and want to learn all I can about vaccine safety or as I am discovering, lack of vaccine safety. so I can be a more effective voice for truth in my department. I am met with either silence, arrogance, denial of risks, embellishment of the disease stats. from my medical colleagues. It has been my experience that the medical profession is illogically afraid of infections. They have no trust in the innate intelligence of the healthily supported immune system.
Keep up the good work.

Linda, thank you for such a comprehensive article. This would be a great white paper for our representatives to read, but I think unless its accompanied by a generous campaign donation, they will not attempt to let such knowledge shape policy. One thing is for sure, you perfectly illustrate that the people who really know the vaccination issue, inside and out, rarely have credentials behind there name. They are just called Linda
Maybe some day in the telling of this history--the Age of Autism--we will here of a Linda-One Kenobe. You obviously possess "the force".
Posted by: michael | August 02, 2016 at 04:32 PM
Unfortunately ... our medical professionals .. such as those prominently appearing in Linda's HPV commercial .. are better at "marketing products" rather than preventing "medical errors" .. such as .. misdiagnosing and mistaken prescriptions .. to name just two of many other preventable errors .. which have been blamed for the astounding numbers .. between 300,000 and 500,000 .. of "accidental deaths" .. while a patient is under hospital care.
If "preventing" deaths were the highest priority of our medical professionals .. their very first priority would be to publicly acknowledge how dangerous it has become to be admitted to a hospital for any length of time.
In my humble opinion .. recommending the HPV would be just another "preventable mistake"

Great article, Linda1! They are playing on fear and guilt. People are afraid for the safety of their child, but also afraid of not being the perfect parent that protects their child at every stage of their childhood. People also don't want to be perceived as neglectful and don't want to feel guilt for taking chances with their child. Most of us who have experienced vaccine injury in our children can maneuver around the guilt and fear because we know the facts beyond the propaganda, but I feel sorry for those who don't know. I have a sister-in-law who chastised me for not vaccinating my boys to protect their future partners. I didn't feel guilt then, and I don't now, but her comment was clearly intended to make me feel guilty and I think she vaccinated her son and daughters partly to avoid this guilt feeling. Tides are turning though. High functioning adults injured by vaccines are able to research just like we can, and some determine that they were in fact injured by vaccines. I can see them saying, "You wouldn't have given me vaccines if you had known that they could damage me, would you? Mom? Dad?" In fact, my son who appears fairly typical, does blame me for vaccinating. He thinks we should all carry some guilt for the vaccine injury we caused our children. I haven't felt that guilt before. Maybe some guilt over pharmaceuticals I used to keep my son at home or for not being even stronger than I was with biomedical treatments, but how was I supposed to understand back in 1996 that vaccines could cause autism? Parents who do the research today can easily understand, especially when it comes to the HPV. That's why the powers that be have to hit us so hard with the fear and guilt propaganda.

Wow! Thank you, Linda1, for this comprehensive and informative article. You cover so much important ground!
Parents and consumers also need to beware of a new type of ad I am seeing, where a front group, funded by Pharma, does the ad. Since it is not "technically" the pharmaceutical company presenting the ad (!), there is apparently no requirement to list the side effects. For the past month or so, on HGTV, there has been a frequently-played ad for the meningitis vaccine, but since it is presented by "Voices of Meningitis", not one adverse side effect of the vaccine is mentioned. It is from the group National Association of School Nurses, which, not surprisingly, is supported by Sanofi Pasteur, maker of meningitis vaccines. Talk about finding a loophole! The FDA should come down hard on such deceptive and evasive ploys by pharmaceutical companies, but we all know that is not going to happen. You can watch the ad on the website for Voices of Meningitis.
As always: Buyer, beware!
Thank you, Linda1!

Excelently researched article. And does Dr Ferris say anywhere that his 23 year-old patient was not vaccinated?

Well, fear sells.
If they told the truth about their product -- the real truth, about the side effects; there is real fear there now isn't there.
Ohhh the irony of it all.
