Here we go. Let’s start the conspiracy theories about vaccines. When the Gardasil vaccine is given the first time you wait in the doctor’s office for 15 minutes for any side effects such as dizziness. This procedure is repeated with each following vaccine. Why would parents continue the vaccine treatment for their daughter if their arm went numb after the first shot? Is it possible that their child became ill because of another cause or it is 100% from the vaccine? The case with the 21 year old brings questions of why were their not any side effects during 6 month period of shots? Again, did an autopsy show that Gardasil killed this woman or was it another cause? These scare tactics are irresponsible. Why isn’t the focus on the lives that will be saved rather then on some doubt sayers with no proof?

The VAERS database is a complete list of every adverse reaction reported by someone who has been vaccinated. It is the “worst-case” possible list of reactions. Being listed in VAERS does not in any way mean the reaction was caused by the vaccine. It is “temporal” (meaning “after the vaccine”), not “causual” (meaning “caused by the vaccine).

Referencing the VAERS database to stir up fears of a vaccine is dishonest. There are two other methods used when evaluating drugs, and those are medical studies that look through the VAERS data and determines if the reactions are causual.

Those two methods have found little concern for the vaccine. No deaths have been medically attributed to the vaccine. The reports of bad diseases like GBS have been studied, and the occurance of GBS in vaccinated people is no higher than the occurance of GBS in non-vaccinated people.

In other words: You get GBS and haven’t seen a doctor for years, you just curse your bad luck. If you get it a month after getting Gardasil, and see some politicians telling you Gardasil is an evil vaccine that will kill you, you assume your GBS was caused by the evil vaccine.
