What You Don’t Know And Your Doctor Can’t Tell You: I Am A Gardasil Survivor; Gardasil Scandal Brewing in Colombia?; Deadly Vaccines And Teenage Girls.; Yeast in Vaccines Tied to Autoimmune Diseases. ; GARDASIL CONTAMINATION CONFIRMED 
I Am A Gardasil Survivor
I struggled for years to finally reach the point where I
thought my life was as close to perfect as it was going to get. That was
before Gardasil. Now, everything is different.
I was just beginning to really live my life to the
fullest. I started taking the courses I would need to attend college to
become a Veterinary Technician. I only have two mathematics courses left to
take. I loved hiking, animals, canoeing and outdoor activities. I have a dog
who just turned five who I loved to take on long hikes in the conservation
areas and woods. I would spend time with my best friends and, my older
sister. I loved going shopping, cooking, gardening, and going out to the mall
or library–anywhere to get out and about. I started dating my best male
friend of nearly twelve years in May of 2013.
I was supposed to start college this year, September
2014. I was supposed to do so much this year. Gardasil took all of that away
from me.
The first time I was offered Gardasil, my family
physician of 29 years had just done a physical and tests to make sure I had
no STIs or STDs.
Everything came back clean. Then, she recommended the
Gardasil vaccine. I didn’t think it was important. I was not seeing anyone,
had no intention of seeing anyone until after college. I declined.
When I started dating my current boyfriend, she
recommended it again. This time I decided maybe it would be a good idea. Most
people have some form of HPV or another, after all. She made cervical cancer
sound like the kind of risk no one would want to take. She said it was for my
protection. I try to do things that will ensure I will be safe and protected.
I agreed.
So, I got my first Gardasil injection in June of 2013. But before receiving it, I asked my doctor if there were
any side effects to this vaccine.
She said,
“No. There are no side effects besides perhaps
soreness at the site of the injection.”
I trusted the information my doctor of 29 years gave me.
Little did I know Gardasil has not been proven to prevent cervical cancer.
Regular pap smears would have done more for me with less damage to my health
and life. I had never seen a site like SaneVax, or any warnings whatsoever
about serious health risks associated with HPV vaccines.
I would give anything to have known then what I know
now. I wish I could go back and never have received that first shot. But I
can’t UN-vaccinate. I can’t undo what I did.
Two weeks after the first vaccination, I was in Toronto
visiting my boyfriend. I developed a severe migraine and nausea that didn’t
go away. I thought I had a flu or bug, since there were bugs going around. I
was there a few days and had to go home because I felt so sick. I was ill for
about three to four weeks in total.
Then it seemed to be getting better. There was still a
mild migraine and the feeling of my stomach being off. I didn’t connect it to
the vaccine, even though I rarely caught the flu, colds or bugs.
I went to see my doctor and she assured me that it was
just a bug. Since it seemed to be getting better, I believed her. I had
migraines on and off the whole next month, and the bothersome, though very
slight, nausea.
When I was supposed to go in for my second Gardasil
vaccination in August of 2013, I was feeling wary.
I wasn’t sure why, but I didn’t really want to go get
it. Something inside me, my instincts, were telling me not to get it.
I went to talk to my doctor, and asked again if there
were any side effects to the vaccine. I explained that I thought it was a bit
weird I hadn’t felt good for a couple of months since getting it.
She again assured me it was simply a bug, and that the
vaccination didn’t cause migraines or nausea.
I was still really reluctant to get it. I remember
sitting in the doctor’s office, and asking the nurse if she’d ever heard of
anyone getting side effects like mine from the vaccine. But she said the same
thing my doctor did: that it was not the vaccine, and not to worry about it.
I trusted my doctor of twenty-nine years. She had never
lied to me, or steered me wrong, before. So I got the second dose of
Gardasil.
Again: how I wish I could go back in time, and undo that
decision. I wish I would have listened to my instincts. Never again will I
trust a doctor more than my body, more than my instincts.
I was on antibiotics for a supposed sinus infection at
the time of the second vaccination. I know now it was just the migraines. My
doctor didn’t say anything about this, either, even though she knew because
she prescribed them for me. Yet you aren’t supposed to vaccinate if you are
on them, if your immune system is weakened already.
Ironically, I went to visit my boyfriend again nearly
two weeks after the second vaccine. The first day there, I got really sick
again. The migraine was so bad I couldn’t look at any lights, and the nausea
was bad and I vomited a couple of times. He took me out and I spent most of
the outing in a public washroom, dry heaving and vomiting.
Then he took me to the hospital emergency room. They
took blood and did a CT scan, but could find nothing. They said it was a
migraine, and gave me migraine medication through IV, and anti-nausea
medication through the IV. Then they sent me home.
I was sick for an entire month again, a little over. My
doctor prescribed migraine medications but they did nothing.
I feared it was the vaccine, but my doctor said it
hadn’t been. I wanted to trust her.
After that time it seemed to recede a bit. I still had
nausea and migraines every day, but there was a three week period where it
was less. Then it came back again in full force. I was also having trouble
sleeping. Waking up nearly every hour at night, and going pee a lot, and
feeling fatigued no matter if I slept or not. It felt like I had the flu
24/7.
I was also noticing problems with anxiety, something I
had not dealt with before no matter how difficult my situation seemed at the
time.
I had been saving for a year for a trip to Mexico. We
left mid-September, it was my first flight and my first vacation ever. It was
ruined.
I was super nauseated every morning when I woke, and had
to take Gravol and ginger pills to make it manageable enough to get through
each day. I ate a bit here and there, but generally felt too sick to eat much
at all.
I did everything my sister and her husband did, because
I didn’t want to ruin the trip for them. Yet I was drained, and sick to my
stomach, and the anxiety I was developing over being unwell was rising.
When I got back, I spent the next few months in and out
of emergency at the hospital and the doctor’s office. My doctor told me I had
acid reflux, so I was put on antacid medications. They seemed to help a
little, but they didn’t stop it.
I had a CT scan, EKG, X-rays, Sleep Study, MRI, an
Ultrasound, so much blood work I felt like a guinea pig…nothing came back
with any results whatsoever. Everything looked normal. I had an endoscopy of
my stomach, which showed nothing, but the GI doctor told me that it was
likely anxiety, since they could find nothing, and recommended I go on
Iberogast and see a counselor or therapist and get cognitive behavioral
therapy.
I didn’t think it was anxiety. Why now? Why when
everything was finally going right in my life? I am with a man I love, in a
great relationship, going to go to college, and now I’ve suddenly developed
unexplainable anxiety and acid reflux due to it? I didn’t believe it was
that.
My doctor began to say it was all anxiety. Every time I
went in, she tried to prescribe me anxiety medication. Frustrated, I tried
taking the Prozac she prescribed, because I was hoping it really was, even if
in my heart I knew it was not. I took it for seven days. On the third day I
started vomiting and lost 9 pounds in that week. On the fourth day I started
having anxiety attacks every morning that would last 3-4 hours long. I
stopped taking it, but the morning anxiety attacks persisted for three weeks
after, and started lessening as time went on until it’s back to my regular
daily anxiety–very bad but manageable.
I was booked for another ultrasound, this time to check
for pancreatitis, and to look at my organs. I was feeling sick again that
day, really sick. So I went to the emergency room again, even though I didn’t
believe it would do anything for me. I just needed to talk to a doctor. This
was when I started really believing it was Gardasil that had done this to me.
It was mid-February.
I saw the doctor who immediately gave me the results of
the ultrasound: normal, again. I broke down crying, because I didn’t know
what to do. All tests were coming back normal, yet I was clearly sick. I
hadn’t been sick before the vaccines, and I refused to get the third.
The ER doctor leaned over and said quietly,
“Doctors are not supposed to really say this, but
I believe it was the vaccine. You have had every test under the sun with no
results, yet are clearly unwell. Have you tried alternatives to Western
medicine? I believe you should look at another alternative, and see a
naturopathic doctor.”
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. My own family
doctor of now 30 years had dismissed the vaccination, even though I told her
that I had been fine before, and was not a mere couple of weeks after…
But doctors aren’t really supposed to say that, are
they? If she admitted that it could be Gardasil, and she prescribed it to me,
she would likely be in trouble.
For lying to me about the fact there were side effects.
For not telling me, which she legally has to do, that there are side effects
at all. For ignoring me when I expressed concerns after the first injection.
I found someone from SaneVax on Facebook, and was added
to a bunch of groups composed of girls, women and their families suffering
after receiving HPV vaccines. I had felt so alone in this, it was like a
godsend to me. Now I know I am not alone. Hundreds of other girls and women
and their families are going through this, all thanks to Merck, Gardasil,
GlaxoSmithKline and Cervarix.
I even told my doctor about this. She could not even
look at me. Instead she prescribed three anxiety medications and told me she
could not help me if I didn’t do what she said to do and take what she said
to take.
Maybe she honestly didn’t know at the time, but I
believe now she suspects, if not believes, that Gardasil did this to me. How,
knowing me 30 years, knowing my life story and what I’d been through, could
she blame this on anxiety? How, when I should be the happiest I ever have
been, and am only not due to my health issues? The answer is that she can’t.
Not unless she’s lying to herself.
My life now feels like every day is a struggle. Every
small task I complete is a victory. My boyfriend has been wonderfully
supportive. We are moving in together in three weeks. Yet I am not who I was.
I struggle to get to the grocery store and back. I am nauseated and have
migraines every single day, and am constantly exhausted. I force myself to
get out of bed or eat. I can’t walk my dog like I used to, or do the physical
activities I used to. I feel grateful if I can even eat well during a day. I
lost about fifteen pounds since this started.
I have gone on disability and had to put college on a
back burner. I am focused mostly on my health and getting better, yet I hate
this. Why should I and everyone around me suffer because I trusted my doctor?
I have just begun seeing a naturopath in Toronto, Ananda
More, who is working with Dr. Isaac Gordon of Australia, a well-known and
renowned specialist in vaccine damages. I will be doing CEASE therapy with
her, and right now am taking the supplements she recommended and detox baths
to prepare myself for it.
I can only hope it helps me get well again, since
nothing else I have done has worked. I have to keep believing I will get
well. Well enough to help others going through this. Well enough to live the
life I had before.
Gardasil has taken so much from me. My health, my
happiness, my life and my goals…but I will fight it. I will beat this, and
come out stronger for having fought the battle.
HPV vaccines have made so many people feel like ‘One
Less’, including myself. Yet together, we can find a way to overcome it.
It is this belief and knowing others going through what
I am and remaining strong and fighting, and some even recovering, that get me
through each day.
We will not give up, or give in – we are HPV vaccine
survivors!
Her name is María Paula Mejía, college student. Since
receiving three doses of Gardasil her health has deteriorated considerably.
She now suffers from constant pain throughout her body, muscle weakness,
and bleeding from the nose and gums. She has so much pain in her left
knee and ankle that she must walk with a cane, and cannot continue her
college education.
Paula is one of the first in Colombia to report serious
new medical conditions occurring after the use of Gardasil.
Lloyd Phillips, an American researcher of infectious
diseases and genetics, has studied the adverse effects of Gardasil for five
years. His work has revealed how Gardasil works differently in different
people. He has documented related and biologically plausible mechanisms of
action which could cause the many serious and life-threatening side effects
which are being reported by girls and young women around the world after
receiving the HPV vaccine.
In Colombia we have a potential crisis of major proportions
resulting from the use of Gardasil because it is “free and compulsory” by
“Law of the Republic”. It is assumed that this HPV vaccine is effective
when used to combat cervical cancer, which can be caused by human papilloma
virus.
However, this vaccine has been hotly debated
internationally for allegedly being dangerous and ineffective. It is
currently being administered in Colombia without obtaining informed consent
from young girls and their parents as to the potential and unknown risks of
use.
The director of vaccination at MOH (Ministry of Health),
Alejandro Garcia, says the government is “confident in the report of the
World Health Organization,” which gives the go-ahead to the vaccine and
assures that there is no association between the developments of illness and
application of the vaccine.
Lina Trujillo of the Colombian Cancer Institute says
that the vaccine protects exclusively against HPV and “does not remove the
possibility of having other diseases, and adolescence is the time at which
diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis start to appear,” and that
“the only contraindication is ‘pregnancy’ and specialists have no hesitation
in recommending the vaccine.”
However, neither the director of the Ministry of Health
nor Lina Trujillo, from the Colombian Cancer Institute seem to be informed
about how the vaccine is produced, and much less about the potential side
effects of Gardasil.
The World Health Organization, whose reports are
practically the Bible of the Gardasil vaccination policy in Colombia, has
been suggested to be complicit with the pharmaceutical industry in general
and the Gardasil manufacturer in particular in urging promotion of HPV
vaccination campaigns. Relying on the pharmaceutical industry to
self-regulate has historically been a losing proposition for the public when
companies are left to weigh profits against transparency.
The María Paula Mejía case is illustrative in this
regard. She had a third dose of the vaccine, even though she had
experienced adverse symptoms after the first two injections. The third
injection is when her serious symptoms began.
Interviewed via Skype, with visible signs of pain and
discomfort from the effort of sitting upright in a chair, she told us the
symptoms she experienced after the third dose of vaccine.
During the first 15 days after her third injection she
experienced fever, vomiting, diarrhea, bone pain, joint pain, migraines,
tingling, electrical “zaps” on her hip and back, and neck pain. One day she
was unable to move for 2 hours, and continues to suffer from insomnia and
dizziness. María Paula had every expectation that the symptoms would
abate or at least become less intense, but instead they progressed in
severity.
At her medical appointments, during which she was
subjected to more than 40 laboratory tests, the medical diagnosis was
unanimous: All tests were perfectly “normal”, she had nothing … while her
symptoms worsened.
The symptoms she was already experiencing were followed
by more severe ones, which included progressively spreading joint and bone
pain, worsened neck pain, scalp pain, continuing severe hip, back, and knee
pain. She began to suffer loss of strength in the left leg, wrist pain,
dizziness, neuralgia throughout the body, painful spinal “zaps” as well as
continuation of the “zaps” in her hips and limbs. She began to
suffer difficulty breathing at certain times of day, chest pain,
bleeding in the nose and gums, deviation of the left knee and left ankle, and
new complications from older problems.
Through all these symptoms, medical observations and
tests were useless in arriving at a diagnosis until a doctor thought to ask:
“Has she been recently vaccinated?”
It was then that María Paula first made the association
between the vaccine and her new medical condition. And she was not mistaken.
She is currently overwhelmed by pain, has difficulty
walking and feels her health is deteriorating more and more. Her
symptoms are consistent with those being reported after Gardasil around the
world. Although not all are affected equally, of all girls who are
vaccinated, a percentage of them will suffer severe effects from Gardasil,
which can lead to paralysis and even death.
Neither Merck, the manufacturer, nor the Colombian
government agrees that the vaccine is causing these severe symptoms. Both
simply raise an accusatory finger at those who denounce this situation, as if
the victims did not exist.
The reproductive health of girls and Colombian youth’s
rights are being denied to those injected with Gardasil. This is not
acceptable, particularly since government support for HPV vaccines has been
withdrawn in other countries, such as Japan, for example, because of concerns
about serious adverse reactions including infertility.
What’s more, says researcher Lloyd Phillips, if a girl
who already has HPV is vaccinated, her risk of getting cancer could
substantially increase.
Colombian doctors do NOT know, or refuse to accept, the
risks of this vaccine. Treatment for victims is nonexistent.
This is what the U.S. researcher Lloyd Phillips
explained to me about Gardasil:
The vaccine uses an aluminum adjuvant because in 1920 a
man named Glinny discovered that aluminum stimulated the immune system.
A Frenchman named Ramón then discovered that if the
aluminum-containing vaccine was given to a horse that had an infection, the
immune system produced an even greater amount of antibodies.
Phillips found that aluminum remaining in the system
after Gardasil injections can cause an enhanced and extended immune response
against infections and illnesses that occurred long ago.
This enhanced response can cause inflammation in the
body, especially in the digestive system, and can cause the immune
system to wrongfully identify food proteins as foreign. The body then
begins to produce histamine to combat what it perceives as a food allergy,
causing stomach pain and dilating blood vessels, which can cause dizziness
and excessive heart pounding upon standing up.
The result, according to Phillips, is that the more
inflamed a digestive tract becomes, the more its ability to absorb nutrients
needed to maintain the chemical cycles in the body can become impaired, which
can lead to fatal consequences.
Phillips also notes that the body cannot distinguish
between inflammation and fear, either of which can trigger the “fight or
flight response” which forces the person to excrete magnesium, causing a
deficiency. This deficiency has many symptoms, such as muscle spasms,
pain, irritability, cardiac arrhythmias, headaches, brittle bones, and more.
In short, says the researcher, this type of vaccine was
made for people with “a genetically
perfect immune system,” which does not exist in reality.
Gardasil can produce all of these symptoms to varying
degrees according to the genetic make-up and medical condition of the person
who receives the vaccine, which can vary from hour to hour. This is something
neither Merck, nor the Colombian government is telling the public.
In the case of María Paula, as she will recount, when
she received the first dose, she was never warned that any of the symptoms
she is now suffering were possible. She says:
“They told me that I could have pain in my arm
for a week and that I had to wait 15 minutes before leaving the Cancer
League, because some girls fainted and the next week was going to be
uncomfortable, but that it was normal because of the vaccine… I received the
second dose and the second dose hurt a little more … the next few months I
began to experience fatigue and back pain, but I thought it was because of my
daily activities … I had pain in the lower back and neck … I received the
third dose on 20 January of this year and the pain was much greater than in
the previous two doses … I began to experience several things … immediately
after being vaccinated I began to experience dizziness, I wanted to throw up,
obviously my arm really hurt … they warned me about the dizziness, and the
urge to vomit and the arm pain and that the next day my arm was also going to
hurt, but the following week I had fever, vomiting, diarrhea, extremely
strong migraines that lasted 15 days with vomiting, and diarrhea…, I went to
the doctor and was told that that there was a virus going around… one night I
sat on the couch in my house and then I lay down; I started feeling really
bad, very feverish, until I realized that I could not get up from the couch
“…
María Paula’s symptoms seem to get worse with each
passing day. For the moment, the only hope she has of improving is going to
the U.S. to receive treatment.
In Colombia there is no protocol to treat these cases.
The government says they do not exist.
And what is the role of Merck, the manufacturer of the
vaccine?
According to Lloyd Phillips, company profits are what
motivates the existence of this vaccine and its advertising campaigns, due to
lawsuits against Merck as a result of VIOXX, a drug that caused 27,000 heart
attacks. A single dose of Gardasil may cost about 68 cents to produce (about
$ 1360 pesos), and in Colombia obtaining it privately costs the equivalent of
$60 (roughly $120 thousand pesos) and in the USA up to $ 200 (about 400
thousand pesos).
The Colombian government has spent $300 million on a
questionable vaccine that is already starting to claim apparent victims in
Colombia.
Following Lloyd Phillips’ statistics, of the $300
million paid by Colombia, $ 298.98 million (nearly $299 million) was profit
for Merck.
Colombia is purchasing the HPV vaccine at a hugely
inflated price. This vaccine can not only ruin lives, but can cost thousands
of dollars to bring a single victim back to health. Families may have to
spend thousands of dollars trying to restore their daughters’ health, without
having prevented any cancer as promised, and instead causing a number of
illnesses that did not exist before using this ‘miracle’ vaccine.
We are then faced with a health emergency induced by a
vaccine that has never been proven to prevent any cancer and that is ravaging
the children and youth around the world, against which there have been
million-dollar awards for HPV vaccine injury in the U.S. (The U.S.
government has already paid more than six million dollars to victims) and the
vaccine has been rejected in several countries, for example in India and
Japan.
But in Colombia, Gardasil will continue to claim more
casualties unless an immediate halt to its “free and compulsory” status is
granted.
The Colombian government is exposing itself to millions
of dollars in lawsuits for its actions in making this vaccine mandatory to
Colombian girls and women without informing them of the grave risks already
known worldwide.
Does the government of Colombia intend to ignore medical
consumers’ right to informed consent, despite knowing the consequences?
Deadly
Vaccines And Teenage Girls
Athi Shankar | April 30, 2014
CAP calls for the scrapping of a costly and 'irrelevant' program aimed at protecting youngsters from a sexually transmitted infection.
GEORGE
TOWN: The Consumers’ Association of Penang (CAP) has urged the Health
Ministry to scrap the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinationprogramme for
13-year-old girls, saying the funds would be better used for cervical cancer
screening.
CAP
president SM Mohamed Idris said today that medical studies had shown HPV
vaccines to have deadly side effects.
According
to the US Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, HPV is the most common
sexually transmitted infection and goes away on its own in most cases.
Speaking
at a press conference today, Idris called on the government to re-channel HPV
vaccination funds towards improving its cervical cancer screening (CCS) programme.
He said
the CCS programme should
include pap smear tests for all women, particularly those who were pregnant,
getting married or above the age of 17.
Pap
smears have been proven effective in early detection of cervical cancer.
“The
ministry should conduct more public awareness programmes on cervical cancer and its
prevention,” Idris said.
He
described the current HPV vaccination programme as
irrelevant, saying girls in the targeted group were rarely promiscuous.
Moreover, he noted, the programme protected
against only a handful of about 200 HPV types.
Of the
200-odd types, 40 are known to cause tumours.
Deaths
The
ministry’s RM150 million programme, which targets 300,000 schoolgirls,
uses the Gardasil and Cervarix vaccines. Gardasil protects against four HPV
types and Cervarix against two.
“The
vaccines do not protect against 36 other cancer-related HPV types,” said
Idris.
He
added that the side effects of HPV vaccinations were serious and could be
fatal.
As of
July last year, 27,908 Gardasil adverse events were filed with the Vaccine
Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) in the US, with more than 120 deaths,
more than 10,000 emergency room visits and more than 2,500 hospitalisations.
Another
12 death reports in VAERS have been associated with Cervarix.
In a
study published in the Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, the
cancer-related HPV types addressed by the ministry’s programme occurred only in 13 of the 38
Malaysian women tested.
The
other 25 had cancer-causing HPV types not protected by the vaccines.
Idris
said scientists were still uncertain about how and when HPVs could cause
cancer, meaning thattumour-causing HPV
types might not necessarily be cancer-producing.
He also
noted that the vaccines in the ministry’s programme gave
protection for only four years, meaning that they would work only when the
girls were between 13 and 17 years old.
“Are there
any studies to show that Malaysian girls are most sexually active at that age
group?” he asked.
He
cautioned that the programme might
have the reverse effect of giving the vaccinated girls courage to engage in
sexual activity.
“The
root cause of contracting HPV, that is sexual relations with multiple
partners, should be tackled by education and instilling religious and moral
values,” he said.
GARDASIL CONTAMINATION CONFIRMED
In September 2011, SaneVax Inc. informed the FDA that despite all
Merck’s statements claiming Gardasil contained ‘no viral DNA,’ Dr. Sin Hang Lee
had discovered there were indeed fragments of HPV-11, HPV-16 and HPV-18 L1 DNA
firmly attached to Merck’s proprietary aluminum adjuvant in 100% of the samples
his laboratory tested.
The FDA was quick to confirm that Gardasil did indeed
contain residual HPV L1 DNA fragments, but that these fragments ‘posed no
health risk.’
By 2012, Dr. Lee had discovered that these HPV DNA
fragments were not only bound to Merck’s proprietary aluminum adjuvant, but
they had also adopted a non-B conformation,
thereby creating a novel (new) chemical compound of
unknown toxicity.
Non-B DNA conformations are known to be associated with
genetic mutations connected to over 70
serious diseases in
human beings including polycystic kidney disease, adrenoleukodystrophy,
follicular lymphomas, and spermatogenic failure, just to name a few.
Instead of investigating any potential problems which
could be caused by injections of this new chemical compound, HPV vaccine
proponents and government health officials chose to try and minimize the impact
Dr. Lee’s discovery might make on HPV vaccination programs around the globe.
Rather than conducting legitimate studies to determine the extent of potential
risks, they chose to attack the messenger.
Helen Petousis-Harris PhD, the Director of Immunisation
Research and Vaccinology Immunisation Advisory Centre at The University of
Auckland, provided a prime example of these tactics in a presentation she gave
at a public hearing on HPV vaccine
safety in February
2014.
Following are two of the ‘concerns’ regarding Dr. Lee’s
research she mentioned during this presentation:
§ The tests used were over sensitive, increasing the risk of
amplifying irrelevant (junk) DNA
§ No one else has replicated his findings
Both of these ‘concerns’ were put to rest via data
presented by Laurent Bélec at the 9th International Congress on
Autoimmunity on March 26-30, 2014 in Nice,
France.
CONFIRMATION OF THE CREATION OF A NOVEL MOLECULE IN GARDASIL
Confirmatory
detection of human papillomavirus (HPV) L1 gene DNA sequences in the
quadrivalent HPV vaccine Gardasil® based on virus-like
particles production by recombinant expression of major capsid antigen L1 in
yeast

Paris Cité, Paris, France
Human
papillomavirus (HPV) infection causes cervical cancer, a significant portion of
anal, genital and oropharyngeal cancers, genital warts and recurrent
respiratory papillomatosis. In June 2006, a prophylactic HPV vaccine (Gardasil®;
Merck, NJ, USA) was licensed in the USA, with subsequent approval granted in
the European Union.
Gardasil® is
a quadrivalent HPV protein-based vaccine containing genotype-specific L1 capsid
proteins of HPV-16, HPV-18, HPV-6 and HPV-11 in the form of virus-like
particles as the active ingredient, which are produced by a DNA recombinant
technology in yeast. Recently Lee SH showed that Gardasil® contained
fragments of HPV-11 or HPV-18 DNA, evidenced by nested PCR, of unknown
significance [J Inorg Biochem. 2012 Dec;117:85-92].
We
herein looked by optimized single PCR in different batches of Gardasil® from
France for HPV L1 DNA using MY09/MY11 degenerate and nondegenerate primers, for
HPV E2 and E6 DNA genes, and for contaminating Saccharomyces
cerevisiae DNA. All amplified amplicons were sequenced and resulting FASTA
sequences were analyzed by Genotyping software from NCBI. In-house quantitative
single PCR using as external calibrator serial dilutions of HPV-16 DNA
extracted from CaSki cell line allowed estimating the load of residual HPV DNA
fragments in vaccine ampoules. Preliminary data showed the presence of contaminating
HPV L1 DNA in all tested different batches of Gardasil® vaccine
from France.
Our
observations confirm independently and extend the previous observations by Lee
SH, without using conflicting nested PCR detection possibly subjected to
contamination. Persistence in muscle tissue of residual HPV DNA fragments is
uncertain after intramuscular injection, and requires further investigation for
vaccination safety.

Not only has another independent laboratory confirmed the
findings of Dr. Lee in every Gardasil sample tested from France, this lab used
a different and less ‘sensitive’ methodology to arrive at the same conclusion
regarding Gardasil recombinant (genetically engineered) HPV DNA fragment
contamination.
It is interesting to note – both Dr. Lee and Prof. Bélec simply
indicated the need for further investigation for vaccine safety.
The SaneVax team completely agrees – further
investigation is necessary for vaccination safety.
Helen Petousis-Harris couldn’t have said it better when she
quoted Carl Sagan at the end of her presentation.
Extraordinary
claims require extraordinary evidence.
Marketing HPV vaccines as cancer preventatives is one of these
extraordinary claims requiring extraordinary evidence.
Medical consumers deserved that evidence prior to the
institution of mass HPV vaccination programs.
Yeast in Vaccines Tied to Autoimmune Diseases
Yeast is associated with the staff of life, bread—not to
mention being the basis pleasure-inducing beer. So why should we be concerned
about its presence in a large number of vaccines? A new study reveals that
injecting yeast may be the cause of the autoimmune disease epidemic, which is
devastating the lives of millions.
It’s well-recognized that the
incidence of autoimmune diseases has been rising at an enormous rate. A new study indicates that a significant
factor in causing them may be the common bakers or brewers yeast, Saccharomyces
cerevisiae[1] used in many vaccinations,
including HepB, which is given to nearly all newborn babies in the United
States before they’re a day old.
The
specific part of S. cerevisiae that’s of concern
is mannan, which is found in the cell walls of yeasts and also in mammalian
glycoproteins. These glycoproteins are found in cell walls, connective
tissues like collagen, gastrointestinal mucous secretions, and blood plasma.
They perform many functions. Obviously, if the immune system goes on the
attack against mannan, it can be devastating. Yet, that appears to be
happening in many autoimmune diseases.
These
diseases happen when the body’s own defense system turns on itself, resulting
in life-eroding conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease,
inflammatory bowel disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, anti-phospholipid
syndrome, multiple sclerosis, diabetes mellitus type 1, and even heart
disease.
The
Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has no doubt about the increase in
autoimmune diseases[2] and the National Institutes of Health
(NIH) has produced a nice document outlining their approach to dealing with
it. The “Autoimmune Diseases Research Plan”[3] discusses
their approach to dealing with the issue, including the type of research
they’re supporting. Nowhere is there any indication that vaccinations are
being considered as a potential cause.
Of
course, if you don’t look for it, you are not likely to find it. Clearly, the
CDC is not promoting a genuine investigation into finding the causes of autoimmune
disorders, as they’re willing to consider anything and everything … except
that elephant in the room named vaccination. As is the case with autism, the
primary focus is on genetics, with environment also considered—as long as the
term environment doesn’t include vaccines. As with autism, that focus
completely ignores the ourright absurdity of blaming genetics for new
non-infectious disease phenomena.
How
Can Yeast Cause Such Terrible Diseases?
Yeast is, of course, used to make
bread rise and create the alcohol in beer. So how can it suddenly turn into
an enemy? The answer is in how it enters the body, and what enters with it.
The purpose of a vaccine is to create a localized storm in the immune system
so that it will respond to a co-injected substance, which may be a weakened
microbe or a small bit of a microbe, by creating antibodies to it.
An
irritant, called an adjuvant, is what causes the immune system storm, and the
microbe is called an antigen. The catch is that other substances injected
with the antigen and adjuvant may also be seen as antigens. If one of those
substances is similar to something that naturally exists in the body, then
the immune system may create antibodies to part of its own body, creating an
autoimmune disease.
Parts
of the mannan in yeast are similar or identical to parts of the human body.
So S. cerevisiae—yeast—used in vaccines has the potential of
causing autoimmune disorders. In fact, S. cerevisiaeis
used in a variety of ways in vaccines. It is, when used whole, a potent
adjuvant[4]. On top of that, genetic manipulation is now being
used on it to create artificial antibodies[4], so S.
cerevisiae is becoming more common in vaccines.
Autoantibodies
of S. cerevisiae
The researchers who focused on
autoimmune aspects of S. cerevisiae (yeast) found
significant correlations between yeast’s mannan and known autoimmune antigens
in several autoimmune diseases. They found close and, in some instances,
exact matches of the genetic sequences. For example, in the case of
rheumatoid arthritis, the percent found to match were:
Rheumatoid
arthritis
·
Rheumatoid
factor: 60%
·
Bip/GRP78: 71%
·
gp130-RAPS: 80%
·
EIF4G1: 88%
·
Anti-citrullinated
collagen type 2: 100%
Not only were there significant
sequence matches with four known rheumatoid arthritis auto-antigens, there
was a perfect match with one. In other conditions, they found:
Lupus erythematosus
·
SmN: 53%
·
SSA (Ro): 60%
·
snRNP-SmD3: 64%
·
SSB (La): 69%
·
U2 snRNP B”: 83%
Heart disease
·
P-selectin
(protein on surface of blood vessels & platelets): 80%
·
Myosin (involved
with muscle contraction): 88%
·
Intercellular
adhesion molecule-1 (inflammatory response molecules): 100%
Anti-phospholipid
syndrome
·
β2-Glycoprotein-1
precursor: 56%
·
Annexin A5: 63%
·
Anti-CL/β-2GPI Ig
light chain variable region: 73%
AIDs-associated
antigens
·
Thyroglubulin:
52%
·
GAD65: 57%
·
Zinc transporter
8: 57%
·
Transglutaminase:
60%
·
Thyroid
peroxidase: 71%
·
Soluble
liver/pancreas antigen: 80%
·
Calprotectin
(protein S100-A8): 100%
Sclerosis-associated
antigens
·
Major centromere
autoantigen B: 57%
·
RNA polymerase

·
U3-snRNP
fibrillarin: 75%
·
U3-snRNP MPP10:
75%
·
hU3-55kDA: 86%
·
Nucleophosmin
B23: 88%
A perfect match with a molecule may
not be necessary to result in an autoimmune response, so percentages of less
than 100% may not indicate lack of an autoimmune response. However, the
closer the match between a molecule and an antigen, the more likely it is
that an autoimmune response will occur.
Although you may not generally
think of heart disease as an autoimmune disorder, certain forms of it, such
as rheumatic heart disease, are known to be—and as this study seems to
indicate, others may be, too.
Vaccine
Risks
It
should be noted that anti-phospholipid syndrome was originally associated with the tetanus
vaccine. Referring to the table on the right, which was provided
by the study, you can see that the first vaccine listed is DTaP. The T stands
for tetanus.
Do we know for certain that
vaccinations containing S. cerevisiae cause these
autoimmune diseases? No, we don’t. However, we now have information that
strongly links yeast-containing vaccines to autoimmune disorders—and we have
absolutely nothing to suggest that they don’t cause them.
In fact, not only do we now have
the strong association between S. cerevisiae auto-antibodies
and mannan-containing proteins, we also have a history of increasing rates of
autoimmune disorders that, at a casual look, can be seen to correlate with
the expanding vaccination schedules in countries around the world.
Autoimmune disorders are
devastating our health and a huge percentage of us suffer from a severely
diminished quality of life. These disorders aren’t happening because of
genetic defects, and to suggest that they are is an insult to our
intelligence—though that seems to be the goal of our health agencies.
The cost to us as individuals and
as a society is enormous. Surely it’s past time to take a serious and honest
look at vaccine risks, including the use of yeast as an ingredient.
Instead, we have a mad rush to
create ever-more yeast-related vaccines, because modern recombinant DNA
technologies have made it so much easier, faster, and cheaper to produce
them. Unfortunately, though, to step back and apply the precautionary
principle isn’t profitable. So, you can expect to see more and more of them,
no matter how much harm they produce.
