Controversial HPV Vaccine Causing One Death Per Month: FDA Report

[BellyBelly]

Well I know GPs get incentives for kids being vaccinated, my bet is they do for this too... money makes the world go around... not best health practices.

I will never let my daughters have this vaccine that's for sure. The ridiculous thing is, parents are lining up their teen daughters to have it, when they could aleady have been exposed to the HPV - how many teen girls do you think would have at least engaged in some very heavy petting, if not actual sex these days, let alone a woman already into her 20's? There was a huge increase in the propaganda - opps - I mean advertising of this vaccine after the last roud of negative publicity and no doubt there will be after this one too.

The way they have gone about this is scarmongering at its very best - you only have to mention cancer and vaccine in the same sentence together and people will stampede to get it.

my 13 yo neice was given the vacc at school and suffered some quite adverse reactions, when her mother took her to the doctor and asked if it was possibly related to the vacc, she laughed in her face and said not to be ridiculous!!
my neice was ill for about 2 days afterwards, nausea, headaches, diarrhea, blurry eyes.
my SIL now doesnt want her to have the other 2. fair enough!

It is scary that they refuse to acknowledge that there can be any side effects from it. If you look at the gov websites about it the only side effects mentioned are redness, pain and swelling at the injection site and mild fever, they are just not doing enough reporting of these instances where girls are having obvious side effects so they can get a true and clear picture of it. It proves that it is all part of the big brainwash over it.

I refused it for my DD13 when they did the mass vax at her school last year. Too scary, too unknown it rings very loud alarm bells in my ears...

[Trillian]

Yep Deb. It shouldn't matter which side of the vaccination fence you sit on, this is the one time you should just hold off on it till more is known about the long term effects of it.

I had the first one of these vaccines a couple of years ago(no reactions) but never went back for the other 2 shots after further info came out about it. This is a real scary one as it is so new. I am even worried about having one of the shots for it!

That's so often the way with vaccines, though, isn't it? After having her triple antigen at age 3 (this was a long time ago before they changed the combination), my dd2 had febrile convulsions, vomiting and significant swelling and pain at the injection site. I'm talking a massively swollen red arm that could not be moved, from the elbow to the shoulder, not just a little hot red lump as you'd expect. The kid was clearly having a massive inflammatory response to the vaccine. The doctor refused to report it as an adverse reaction saying that it can often make kids "a bit sick". She was more than "a bit sick"! There really needs to be some independent mechanism for parents to report adverse reactions to these things.

The sad thing is, I am generally very pro-vaccination and my kids have had everything other than varicella vaccines and gardasil, but when the medical profession diminish parental concerns like that, it makes it harder to make a credible case for their safety.

[Schmickers]

Wow. My initial response is to wonder what in God's name they are diluting the vaccine with. I don't think it's the HPV itself - HPV is a fairly benign infection, it's the long term side effects (ie. the increased risk of cervical cancer) that is the problem. But these reactions are immediate. I think it must be the diluents to blame...

Angie is a "needle phobe" like me, so I won't let them do vaxs for her at the school. She has to be somewhere there is someone I know understands the condition and check her for reactions just to getting a needle. So she was going to get this lot with our loal doctor.

But with this kind of information, DH decided on the spot she and Lyta wont be getting it at all now.
