Our girls aren't guinea pigs
An excerpt from our cover story

The morning after Emily Cunningham got a shot of Gardasil, the new
vaccine that protects against four strains of the human papilloma
virus (HPV) that can cause cervical cancer and genital warts, she woke
up with a headache, and neck and back pain. By 9 p.m. that evening in
April, she had a fever so high "you could feel the heat rising from
her a foot away," according to her mother, Laurie. She was delirious
during the night, and the following day couldn't walk without
assistance. Bedridden for nearly a week, the 18-year-old from Wyoming
missed school, and took Tylenol every four hours. "If Emily had been
the only one to get sick we would have said she must have had
something else [like the flu]," explained Laurie, "but we know of
three other students to have reactions, that is why we are concerned."

Emily's story is only one of 1,637 complaints involving Gardasil,
filed as of May to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS),
a national surveillance database sponsored by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) in the United States. One could discount what
happened to Emily because she had a flu shot that same day, but other
really bad reactions have been reported, including seizures, paralysis
-- and worst of all, three deaths, including one girl who "died of a
blood clot three hours after getting the Gardasil vaccine," reads one
complaint. Elsewhere in the world there have been reports of similar
reactions. In Melbourne, Australia, where a national HPV vaccination
program started in April, 26 girls reportedly fainted and were mildly
paralyzed after getting one shot each.

In almost every instance, the response of medical authorities and
government officials is the same: bad reactions are rare. When they do
occur, there's no evidence that Gardasil was the cause. Arguably, both
points could be true. Some say the problem, however, is that no one
really knows, medically speaking, just how dangerous this vaccine
could be. "Usually at this stage in the life span of a vaccine we
would not have this kind of action," Maclean's has heard from Abby
Lippman, an epidemiologist at McGill University who recently aired her
concerns about the speed with which Gardasil has been adopted in the
Canadian Medical Association Journal. "We're making guesses that it's
going to last long, that [we're immunizing] the right age [of girls],
and that it's effective. We don't have a solid basis for this
thought."

And yet, nearly every province in Canada has, in recent weeks, put
forth some plan to implement an HPV vaccination program that will see
the mass inoculation of an entire generation of girls -- some as soon
as this September -- with no serious acknowledgement of the potential
health risks they might face. While everyone debates the moral and
political consequences of endorsing Gardasil, the fundamental,
essential medical and scientific debate remains untouched. So, in a
few weeks, when thousands of girls concerned about Facebook and who
will be in their class this year -- not HPV -- go back to school, many
will become part of the biggest Canadian science experiment in
decades. They will be the guinea pigs.

Ilena Rosenthal continues to ignore the 250,000 - 290,000 deaths of
women each year, who die from Cervical Cancer.  It has been estimated
that 70% of these cancer cases are caused by the HPV virus, which
Gardasil could prevent.

The number of women contracting HPV each year have not been mentioned,
nor the number of women, who under go treatment for HPV and Cervical
Cancer, that manage to live and talk about it.

Ilena is basically a deranged murderer.

Deranged.
Spreads info that kills.

I agree, Mark.

That would cover many subjects, lay off of IIena.  Chill.

While I agree that the anti-vaccine propaganda that she spreads can have
negative consequences, using facts to rebut her cut and paste jobs would
be more highly effective.

I "upped" my standards, now, up yours.
