Dear Editor:
Thank God, the truth about the Gardasil ‘Cervical Cancer’ vaccine is being reported by sections of the Irish media, before the mass vaccination of girls in Irish schools will be implemented by the HSE and more girls are put at risk by the discredited vaccine.
The Government must now instruct the HSE to immediately withdraw the vaccine in the interest of public health. The ‘cancer vaccine’ is nothing short of medical fraud. A medical ‘con-jab’. Almost 80 deaths of young girls are associated with the vaccine. Thousands of adverse side effects, including paralysis, blindness and Guillain-Barre syndrome have been documented. This number is considered the tip of the iceberg.
Merck, the manufacturer of Gardasil, has a bad safety record. Its drug Vioxx had to be withdrawn after being linked to over 27,000 deaths from heart attack. Merck has also been charged with fraud in relation to the drug. Gardasil is being promoted as a cancer vaccine. It is not. It is a vaccine against a sexually transmitted disease, human papilloma virus, that may, in some cases, lead to cancer. It would appear that the emotive issue of cancer is being exploited, so as to increase the worldwide acceptance(and sales) of this dangerous drug. It is estimated that Gardasil has already earned in excess of 23 billion dollars in sales.
What is even more alarming is, that in its report to the Food and Drugs Authority, a federal body in the U.S.A., Merck expressed ‘concern’ regarding the administration of its own vaccine to girls who are already affected with 2 strains of the human papilloma virus, namely 16 and 18. Merck, in that report, indicated that if the cervical cancer vaccine was administered to such girls, it would increase their risk of developing cervical cancer by 44.6 percent. I am referring to page 13 of Merck’s Gardasil clinical trials report:VRBPAC Background Document Gardasil™ HPV Quadrivalent Vaccine May 18, 2006 VRBPAC Meeting
Despite this alarmingly admission by Merck that the cancer vaccine could actually cause cancer, no screening is being done to rule out the presence of strain 16 or 18 of the Human papilloma virus (HPV) in girls, before vaccination. Why is the Irish Government and the opposition parties, the Irish Medicines Board and the HSE placing girls at risk by ignoring this damming admission by the manufacturers?
The HSE information leaflet being distributed at schools, where the vaccine is to be administered, is dangerously flawed. The HSE has failed in its information leaflets and in its website to alert parents and girls to the full facts about this vaccine. It has not even mentioned the deaths that have been reported. It would appear that HSE is being used as a marketing agent for Merck and young girls are the ‘guinea pig’ consumers. Dr Diane Harper, who carried out safety studies to get Gardasil approved has alerted the public that this vaccine is ‘an experiment in public health.’
Parents are entitled to the full facts about Gardasil to enable them to make an informed decision about the vaccine. It is imperative that the vaccination program is abandoned immediately before Irish names are added to the list of casualties. The truth about the vaccine is there for all who want to see. An official web-site SaneVax.org has now been set up to assist those who wish to get more information.
