The truth is out there! follow the truth about gardasil safety! hahahaha, appart from joking, for anyone interested this is the real, official truth reported by the CDC and the FDA using all registered VAERS about gardasil real safety in the USA, updated to june 2011!

this is the link: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/Vaccines/HPV/gardasil.html

thats to show that the real truth is out there ! it explains clearly VAERS, how it works, and the studied relation between the reported adverse events around Gardasil.

obviously it states that no death was considered related to Gardasil, that Guillain-Barre syndrome (the most common syndrome some girls say was caused by Gardasil) present usually in teen girls on a rate of 1-2 /100,000 people, and incidence of it is comparable to normal population and no relation was found for gardasil beeing the cause, the same with blood clots as patients that presented them had more than one real blood clot risk factors.

32 million doses only in the USA (over 90 million worldwide) its a good number to say the vaccine is actually safe!

hope it is of some help for the real truth seekers!

My 18 GD received the Gardasil and the Endocrinologis said an auto immune problem has stopped her thyroid from working. She is on two Rxs of Thyroid meds and is loosing her hair. Her sweet and loving temperment has changed tremendously into an angry, crying teenager. She is trying to continue college. We are so frightened about this,without telling her. I am a retired RN and watching her fearfully, being concerned it may progress into something else that is worse. She is near hysteria that her hair is coming out so continuously. We are monitoring her blood work frequently watching for anything new.

I am so saddened for the family who lost their child and my heart goes out to you. I lost my eldest son @ 22yrs and know your heart break. I will pray for you.

According to the National Cervical Cancer Coalition, in the United States, over 3700 women die a year from cervical cancer. That is roughly 309 women a month. When you compare this statistics to the 64 adverse reactions supposedly caused from Gardasil, it doesn’t seem like that big of a number.You must also know that these "adverse reactions" may simply be a headache, fever or pain at the injection site. There have been many vaccinations before Gardasil that caused just as many, if not more problems.

If my daughter has had 2 of the shots and I decided not to give her the 3rd, will she be ok. I believe this shot isn't safe

Nearly 12,000 have had adverse affects (as reported to the CDC), over 500 of these were SEVERE affects. GET INFORMED and pass the message on to anyone and everyone you know...you might save the life, or quality of life, of someone you love.

Has anyone who has had the Gardasil vaccine experienced hair loss? My 16 year old daughter has recently been losing her hair(a significant amount), in the shower. She has received all 3 shots.....

Read and inform yourself; When I go to the doctors for regular check up, yes I am 28 and go for regular check-up. My Doctor decides to tell me all about the good things that Gardasil does. Well I did not take the shot I wanted to know more about it so i started Researching on my own.

Quote from article:

"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Wednesday that the Gardasil shot against the cervical-cancer CAUSING human papillomavirus is safe to use and effective in preventing four types of HPV."

Quote from Center for disease Control and Prevention:

"Genital HPV infection is a sexually transmitted disease"

This article is misleading. Since when does Cervical Cancer CAUSE human papillomavirus. I though Human Papillomavirus CAN CAUSE Cervical Cancer.

I am very disappointed in USNEWS for this misleading article because, they should be printing the facts correctly being a new magazine. I am not naive enough to know that opinion are printed however wrong information.

USNEWS should correct their mistake and print the truth.

I read the related article at Positivechats . com. CDC says STD is on the rise! According to the report from Positivechats . com, the new subscribers have increased 42% over 2007. Rising STD rate sparks online dating sites.

I personal think that is vaccine should not even be on created in the first place. This vaccine has caused many families to suffer. My advice is do not take it. If no longer want to live, you can go ahead and take it.
