The HPV Vaccine: What's Being Hidden From You

http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008_docs/HPV_vaccine.pdf

The breakthrough GARDASIL HPV vaccine has been touted as a wide success... but what do we really know about this expensive vaccine?

It claims to prevent cervical cancer by preventing infections known to be linked. Of course, there are already moral concerns: such infectious diseases are spread through sexual activity; why are we vaccinating 11 year old girls against this, when the vaccine has no proven long-term effects?

Also, there are more than 90 known strains of HPV; can this one vaccine really combat all of them? As it turns out, it only prevents four. These other strains can also cause cervical cancer; so really, how effective can it be against cervical cancer? The testing process used only tested for immune response; not cervical cancer. They are making claims they cannot back up.

What I find most concerning is that school boards are declining to provide parents with this sort of pertinent information. The link at the top of this entry is a warning pamphlet that was not allowed to be distributed in schools without given reason. All pamphlets I personally have seen appear to be biased in favour of the vaccine; I had questions about its long-term effects and side effects that were not addressed.

Did you know that there have been 21 deaths linked to this very vaccine? And countless other reports of adverse side effects and hospitalizations?

In this case and in any other areas, I urge you to ensure that you are informed on ALL aspects of an issue. This is scary; we are not being voluntarily informed of what they want to put into our bodies. Please read the article that alterted me on this issue:
