The Human Papillomavirus, aka HPV, can cause cervical cancer and genital warts. And now it’s possible that the vaccine that guards against HPV, Gardasil, may cause death. Around the world, 11 girls, as young as the age of 11, have died after receiving the shots, and about another 1,700 have reported complications which include fainting and GBS, a disorder which weakens your immune system. Since 95% of people who have HPV are asymptomatic, all in all, .002% of women with HPV die from related cases of cervical cancer. While it seems like fear mongering to support or oppose the potentially life-saving or life-threatening vaccination, getting guarded by Gardasil should clearly be a personal decision. Currently three states are making shots mandatory for adolescent girls, against the advice of the American College of Pediatrics and a researcher who worked on developing the vaccine. Sure, egalitarian vaccinations sound like a good idea in theory, but now that the results on Gardasil are in, ladies, like everything else, should be free to do what they want.

Doesn’t it seem a bit odd to mandate another vaccine in the midst of a huge controversy over mandated vaccines having a link to autism? I mean, at least most of those being discussed have relatively long term studies done on them…. Gardasil has been out for, like, not even 2 years.

Thanks for this article—the headline immediately caught my eye in my Gardasil Google alert. I personally think the vaccine is highly dangerous and in no way suitable for girls as young as 9. I run a blog exposing the dangers and risks associated with Gardasil at http://www.gardasiltruth.com I appreciate your fair-and-balanced approach to Gardasil. As much as I want to scream “GARDASIL IS KILLING GIRLS! DON’T GET THE SHOT!” from the rooftops, 10 people will turn around and accuse me of “promoting cancer” and using the same scare tactics as Merck. Anyway, thanks for this post—it needs to be said!

Government Officials Voting Fraudulently: Lawmakers Breaking the Law – 4:00 video

There is so much going on during the vote for the HPV VACCINE MANDATE you really have to pay attention (1 minute and 11 seconds into the video). Watch the fraudulent voting in the Texas Legislature, and it simply takes place with no punishment.
What do you think would happen to you, or me, if police caught us on video, fraudulently voting?

i think that girls that young should not get the vaccine. i got the vaccine at age 16 because i have had relatives who had cervical cancer from HPV and figured that was a good reason
it definitely did hurt and i know a girl who did faint from it (but we think that may have been because the office was a smaller space and she is claustrophobic & squeamish around needles) i really think that it should NOT be mandated if it is the cause of deaths, but really find out the real reason why it is killing girls before completely writing it off because those people who can have it without bad symptoms can have benefits from getting it. maybe it’s not that easy, but it seems like simply saying not to get the shot is a little lazy…
i am lucky to not have had any bad symptoms from the shot and am really happy that i had it done

My daughter received the first two shots. She started getting ill with various health problems. It is a bad drug. People are dying and it is being hyped to so many unsuspecting people. We need to get the word out! She almost failed her junior year and I will not let her get the last shot. Please, parents and young women who are thinking this is a good idea, please research it!! It is a bad drug!! It can kill you!!! If you love your daughters take some time to do the research!!!
