Hate to break this to you, but roughly 4% of the US population visits an ER room every month. If you limited to girls in the age that get this vaccine in Canada I would bet you would find a number right around the 10% this study reports.

Unless this article can offer up a baseline that shows the number is higher for girls with the vaccine than without you really just have alarmist tripe in this article.

My teenage daughter had the vaccine and I would do it again. HPV is one of the biggest threats to fertility as well as a well known cause of cervical cancer. Yes my daughter is a morally upright Christian woman with no plans for sex outside marriage. BUT - as I asked her - can you be completely sure you will never be raped? Can you be completely sure the mate you eventually choose will have never had sex prior to your marriage? If the answer is no, the vaccine is worth it.

This study is not helpful. It does not say what the girls ended up in the ER with. I do not see a cohort of girls who got a placebo vaccine with details how many of those ended up in the ER. Get the vaccine or not, up to the individual, but scaremongering like this is beyond the pale.

Hey you don’t have to convince me...these vaccines have serious flaws in terms of their testing and efficacy! The whole HPV thing has the feminist ideology(as well as big money) attached to it and to admit that there is a flaw in the vaccination push is to admit a flaw in feminist ideology as well as the “free sex without consequence” ideology! Politics....disgusting!

Many of those are multiple repeats. Otherwise in a 12 months you are telling me that 48 per cent of the population (175 million) people have gone to the ER in a year? I don’t think so! I think your numbers might be flawed as well!

19,351 had an [Emergency Department] visit within 42 days of immunization

ED visit for what?

And the frequency for the control group?

You aren’t supposed to read the text and think about it critically, you’re supposed to freak out and start yelling that the HPV vaccine is terrible and that any teen or young adult who takes it is probably a slut anyway.

“Wasnt it Gov Rick Perry who wanted to give this to the girls in his state of Texas ???”

That’s what I remember. My daughter gave this stuff to my granddaughters when they were 13, against my advice and put them on the pill. One was pregnant by 17. NOT a good message.

Why is Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation under fire from critics in India?

http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-08-31/news/53413161_1_hpv-vaccine-cervarix-human-papilloma-virus

In 2009, several schools for tribal children in Khammam district in Telangana — then a part of undivided Andhra Pradesh — became sites for observation studies for a cervical cancer vaccine that was administered to girls aged between nine and 15. The girls were administered the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine in three rounds that year under the supervision of state health department officials. The vaccine used was Gardasil, manufactured by Merck. It was administered to girls in the district, many of whom stayed in state government-run hostels meant for tribal students.

Months later, many girls started falling ill and by 2010 five of them died. Two more deaths were reported from Vadodara, Gujarat, where children studying in schools meant for tribal children were also vaccinated with another brand of HPV vaccine, Cervarix, manufactured by GSK. Earlier in the week, the Associated Press reported that scores of teenaged girls were hospitalised in a small town in northern Colombia with symptoms that parents suspect could be an adverse reaction to Gardasil.

A standing committee on health and family welfare that investigated the irregularities pertaining to the observation studies in India tabled its report a year ago, on August 30.

The committee found that consent for conducting these studies, in many cases, was taken from the hostel wardens, which was a flagrant violation of norms.

In many other cases, thumbprint impressions of their poor and illiterate parents were duly affixed onto the consent form. The children also had no idea about the nature of the disease or the vaccine.

The authorities concerned could not furnish requisite consent forms for the vaccinated children in a huge number of cases.

The committee said it was "deeply shocked to find that in Andhra Pradesh out of the 9,543 [consent] forms, 1,948 forms have thumb impressions while hostel wardens have signed 2,763 forms. In Gujarat, out of the 6,217 forms 3,944 have thumb impressions and 5,454 either signed or carried thumb impressions of guardians.

"The data revealed that a very large number of parents or guardians are illiterate and could not even write in their local languages, Telugu or Gujarati."

Earlier this month, taking a serious view of the death of seven tribal girls in the context of the observation studies, the Supreme Court asked the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) and the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) to explain how permissions were given.

The SC bench of justices Dipak Misra and V Gopala Gowda asked the Centre to produce relevant files that pertained to the grant of licence for trial of the HPV vaccine in India. The court also asked the Centre to appraise it of steps taken on the report of the parliamentary committee.

The truth may be in the middle somewhere...the vaccines may need to be reviewed and restricted to higher risk populations.

If you are part of the medical system as am I we are stuck in a system whose current protocols and treatment schemes are being heavily regulated by Obama’s “hucksters” who are running the NIH and the CDC which are designed to tighten regs while reducing reimbursements should care step out of the unrealistic boundaries set by these medical schemes. Obama’s crowd is pushing this vaccine while controlling and politically shaping the info they choose to release related to the epidemiology and adverse reactions related to these vaccines. Can you also say...crony capitalism boys and girls?

I’m afraid in the minds of the public, medical folks like ourselves are increasingly being seen as those who are part of the societal ‘changes” being pushed by the political elites! (Hence the increased political push back by those who blame immunizations on autism or deaths caused by gardisil!) Most people don’t trust established authority or the info given out by them anymore and medical authorities are seen as part of that “system”.

It is a matter of common sense to suspect a relatively new vaccine for the bubble of deaths noted in otherwise very healthy females who had received the vaccine in a short time before their deaths! The human mind seeks a rational explanation for it. As for the parents, they just feel loss and anger and trying to spout the ‘scientific line’(there is no scientific evidence that the vaccine..blah, blah)just comes across as cold and borderline sociopathic!

HPV Vaccine Doesn't Even Work as Advertised

The marketers of Merck's HPV vaccine Gardasil would like you to believe that getting your daughter vaccinated can save her from HPV related illnesses like cervical cancer and genital warts, but where is the good evidence to show that is true?

There are more than 100 viral strains of HPV. Of these, about 30-40 are sexually transmitted and 15 strains are associated with cervical cancer. Several HPV strains are also associated with skin infections that cause genital warts or common warts on your hands and feet.

But Gardasil contains only four of these HPV strains, so 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.

Therefore, even if you accept the risks and get vaccinated, your chances of getting some form of HPV are still very high.

Allegations of Merck’s Misconduct

http://healthimpactnews.com/2014/supreme-court-in-india-to-rule-on-merck-fraud-regarding-hpv-vaccine-deaths/

The supplemental affidavit submitted to the Supreme Court of India states that Merck and/or their representatives committed the following violations of basic human rights:

Vaccination was carried out after the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare had ordered all HPV related studies to suspend vaccination. As such then this was a violation of the government orders.

a) This clinical trial was not preceded by any trial among adults thereby violating the Drugs and Cosmetics Act. This trial had the approval of the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI), who violated the law that his job specifically asked him to uphold. This the second time regarding HPV vaccines the DCGI bestowed this favour on Merck and its associates.

b) The trial used middle men and women acting as agents of the investigator who went around residential areas recruiting subjects in complete violation of all national and international guidelines.

c) The trial was carried out at a government hospital using government stationery and seal even though this was a privately sponsored trial of the company thereby misusing the trust parents place in the governmental vaccination programmes.

d) The parents and children were told that they were getting a successful vaccine from abroad free which would otherwise cost Rs 10,000. Also this constituted undue inducement to recruit children to this trial.

e) None of the participants were informed that they were participating in a clinical trial.

f) Economically vulnerable sections and those from scheduled castes and minorities were recruited for the trial, those who would not be able to afford the vaccine if and when it is marketed; thereby the trial further violated all laws and guidelines in this regard.

g) Merck listed history of allergic reaction that required medical intervention, currently enrolled in another clinical trial, subject is pregnant, subject is immunocompromised or has taken immunosuppressants in the last year, subject has received a marketed HPV vaccine or participated in an HPV vaccine clinical trial and subject has history of positive test for HPV as exclusion criteria for this clinical trial. No examinations of the children who were selected for participation were undertaken prior to administration of the V503 vaccine.

h) There was no placebo involved in this trial, simply three different lots of V503, despite the fact that one purpose of the trials was to detect potential safety issues. i) From the beginning to end, there was no examination of the children for their health status, and even though the trial was supposedly carried out to determine the safety of the vaccine not even fever post vaccination was recorded.

j) No medical care was provided for the health problems of the children nor were they provided any compensation. The study found many children who continue to suffer new medical problems even as late as 2013. Out of the 12 individuals interviewed, 4 have experienced health problems after the vaccine, such as mood swings, persistent stomach aches, dizziness, late onset of periods and severe anaemia. One boy whose family was interviewed has suffered extreme weight loss.

k) Though the investigation covered only the trial centre at Indore the entire list of trial centres is placed in the supplemental affidavit for information. In all hundreds of children have been affected in India.

One would think all of the complaints filed against PATH and Merck during the ’demonstration projects’ for Gardasil would have caused them to be on their best behavior. But apparently, when the government officials in India called a halt to any trials relating to HPV, Merck thought the decree did not apply to them. Either that, or they believed themselves powerful enough to be above the law.

Whatever the motivation, it appears hundreds more economically disadvantaged children and their families were put at risk by their participation in a clinical trial they were not told they were taking part in.

Compound this disregard for informed consent with participants being told they were priviledged to receive a successful and very expensive vaccine from overseas. Nevermind the fact that this ’successful vaccine’ had not been approved for use in any country in the world.

The people of India are not the only ones who may suffer the effects of this particular set of clinical trials. What ’results’ will Merck report to the rest of the world on this set of trials where the exclusion criteria was apparently ignored?

Gardasil Shows Why Government Health Care is Dangerous

By Duncan Maxwell Anderson October 23, 2009
http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/10/gardasil_shows_why_government.html#ixzz47z0Iu1kz

Gardasil has to be the perfect drug for the brave new world of ObamaCare, in a 1984 kind of way. Made by Merck & Co., it was approved in 2006 for use against venereal disease in young girls. Here’s why it’s so culturally suited for hope and change — and such a perfect example of why you don’t want the government in your medicine chest:

1) Gardasil has owed most of its success to the fact that government agencies have been subsidizing its sales, recommending its use, and even talking about requiring it.

2) Administered to girls as young as nine, it seems likely to help them grow up feeling ever so much safer about “safe sex.” They’ll be freer to rebel against bad old, religion-based morality, and more inclined to bond (as it were) with peers, school, the state and charismatic politicians who are always repeating themselves.

3) Best of all, it now appears that Gardasil doesn’t work.

Gardasil was promoted as the first vaccine against cancer, since it works against human papilloma virus (HPV), which is believed to instigate the growth of cancerous cells in a woman’s cervix. But since it was first hurriedly approved by the Food and Drug Administration, Gardasil has been dogged by criticism that it hasn’t been adequately tested, and by persistent reports of side effects, including deaths. So has a similar drug, Cervarix, made by GlaxoSmith-Kline.

As news of the risks has come out, the reply from Gardasil’s pharma-industry supporters has been to denounce “fear-mongering,” and to reiterate that the drug will reduce the cervical cancer rate in America. Alas, a presentation at a conference by one of Merck’s top researchers on October 2 appears to show otherwise. Here is a link to an article by Steven W. Mosher and Joan Robinson of the Population Research Institute (PRI), commenting on the talk by Merck consultant Dr. Diane Harper, who helped develop both Gardasil and Cervarix.

Dr. Harper has on several occasions criticized the rush to market of both HPV drugs. But her October 2 talk at the Fourth International Public Conference on Vaccination in Reston, Va., was framed as emphasizing the benefits of Gardasil. Nevertheless, according to PRI, her presentation openly stated that, 26 million vaccinations after its debut, Gardasil will have no effect on the rate of cervical cancer in the U.S. HPV, the infection that Gardasil can prevent, is rare, usually heals itself, and testing and treatment in the U.S. are very effective in keeping cervical cancer a rare event.

Okay, you say, Gardasil may not be effective. Neither is brushing your teeth with mayonnaise. But can it hurt? All the girls in my daughter’s class are getting their shots, and I don’t want her to feel left out.

Yes, it can hurt, according to Dr. Harper herself, who spoke out for better disclosure about the drug’s risks earlier this year. PRI’s Joan Lewis adds: “To date, 15,037 girls have officially reported adverse side effects from Gardasil to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). These adverse effects include Guilliane Barre, lupus, seizures, paralysis, blood clots, brain inflammation and many others. The CDC acknowledges that there have been 44 reported deaths.”

Merck’s Dr. Harper told CBS News that a girl is more likely to die from an adverse reaction to Gardasil than from cervical cancer.

What would be the point in promoting the inoculation of millions of girls and women with a useless, sometimes dangerous drug? And it really is useless: Merck’s current project is to push it to pre-teen girls, but Dr. Harper pointed out that, once a girl hits puberty, any effectiveness of the vaccine disappears, and she has to start over again with the course of shots. And by the way, the efficacy of the drug in pre-teen girls hasn’t actually been tested.

One thing we know about Gardasil is that each three-dose treatment costs $360, which has helped Merck a lot. It’s been one of the company’s top-selling drugs. That has led to political contributions by Merck PACs, which helped certain politicians. After FDA approval in 2006, the company lobbied state governments all over the country to promote mandated Gardasil vaccination for 12-year-old girls. Governor Richard Perry of Texas got into trouble when it was revealed that, right before he issued an Executive Order requiring all of Texas’s 6th-grade girls to get doses of Gardasil, he and his political allies had been lobbied by Merck. He also received money from Merck’s PAC. In the uproar, the legislature passed a measure countermanding his order, and Merck announced it was canceling its 18-state “Gardasil mandate” campaign. But sales of the drug are down this year, so the company gamely mounted a “Back to School” ad campaign. (Why? To coincide with the Fall Scholastic Sex Season?)

I guess this is one of those situations where the benefit of “saving lives” falls to someone other than the patient. Gardasil gives various government agencies and their friends a pretext to get involved in a whole new area: the private lives of very young girls. Your girls.

Groups like Planned Parenthood eagerly promote Gardasil. They urge you to bring in your daughter for her shots. That represents a sale right now, of course. But it could help bring your daughter back as a customer for contraceptives or abortion. You wouldn’t approve, and you don’t let your daughter carry around that kind of pocket change on her own? No matter. You don’t have to know, or be consulted. Planned Parenthood can give away those services “free,” but get reimbursed in full by America’s taxpayers through federal and state grants. Everybody wins, except the patient and her family.

Abstinence, looking after our daughters’ safety and dignity, and taking ordinary care of their health may be medically more effective than a vaccine like Gardasil, but they offer no benefit to drug companies, to drug and service retailers like Planned Parenthood or to the politicians who want to take over our medical industry. So to them, the choice is obvious.

That seems like an excellent reason to keep the choice for ourselves.

This is not the only misconduct regarding vaccines that Merck has been accused of. I believe there is a still ongoing hearing about Merck fudging efficacy numbers for their MMR vaccine. Also they’ve been accused, and I believe this is part ongoing hearing, of fudging the stats on supposed links between MMR and autism. There have been articles posted on FR about this.

Of course people love to shove in your face how horrible polio and various other diseases were prior to the vaccines being available. Because the vaccines worked miracles generations ago they all must still be miracles and if you question why a newborn needs a Hep B vaccine then you’re fear mongering.

There must be some common sense middle ground. If you look at the permanent injury rate for diseases like measels, even prior to the vaccine, it was extremely low. The permanent injury rate, though hard to put a number on, from the vaccine is even lower. To some people this is justification for why everyone should be forced to have the vaccine. I maintain that cannot actively force someone to take a medical risk, no matter how small it is.

Sorry but my numbers are spot on:

http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/emergency-department.htm

44.5 out of 100 Americans visit an ER per year. Just because you don’t want to believe something doesn’t make it untrue.

Do the math...you got your numbers from a suspect source(Obama’s CDC)! 140 million people visiting ER’s a year(the entire population in 3 years?)...the numbers don’t sound right. I live and work in Richmond...there is no way 44 per cent of the entire population visits ER’s in this area...we see a lot of multiple repeats though...that’s what skews the numbers!
