Gardasil / LeRoy Neurological Cases

I just looked up Gardasil to see if it was an attenuated or a killed virus, thinking that it was likely that they didn't "kill down" the virus in the batches of Gardasil administered to the girls.

But according to the Wiki article which quotes the CDC, "The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) consider the vaccine to be safe. It does not contain mercury, thiomersal or live virus or dead virus, only virus-like particles, which cannot reproduce in the human body."

But then there's this information, which contradicts the information I linked to earlier about known neurological side effects in some: "The FDA and the CDC say that the vaccine has only minor side effects, such as soreness around the injection area."

I'm still leaning towards the idea of Gardasil vaccine contamination.

Since it's only females affected. With either fracking or other chemical toxicity--or even with mass hysteria--there would have very likely been males affected as well as females.

With PANDAS, those girls would have all had to have had recent strep illness, and the presentation of strep in children is rarely subtle. Oddly enough, I have read of cases in adults where it can be of an insidious variety. So I don't think it's a PANDAS.

It would be interesting to trace the business connection between Merck and CNN to see if it's in CNN's interest to have Dr. Gupta naysaying the possibility of Gardasil causing this when we have no tests or other evidence to discount that possibility.

I think that interview Gupta gave was extremely irreponsible, even if Gardasil isn't ultimately the cause of these troubling medical cases.

But it wouldn't surprise me one bit if we discover those girls ended up with an active HPV viral infection from contaminated vaccine. Because the virus would go through their whole body--it is systemic--and neurological symptoms would just be standard presentation. Viruses go wherever they want in the body, which is usually everywhere.

And now these young women are improving. Probably because their bodies have marshaled their forces and launched their immune defenses.

There might not be complete reporting of symptoms due to the fear of stigma. High school students of a dating age probably don't want other kids knowing how "gross" certain things happening to their bodies might be.

Hopefully their bodies will fight this down and they will all have their health restored.

If they were going to have the extreme reactions like paralysis, we would have probably seen that by now. And by all reports they are improving.

The following I didn't find on Merck's site.

DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Gardasil is a human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine synthesized using recombinant technology. Gardasil is a sterile preparation for intramuscular injection and contains purified inactive proteins from HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18. The proteins in Gardasil are structural, virus-like proteins (VLP) that resemble the HPV virus. The proteins can activate the immune system, but cannot replicate. Viral proteins used in Gardasil are manufactured in yeast cells (S. cerevisiae) using recombinant technology. Once released from yeast cells, the VLPs are purified, combined with a catalyst (amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate) and a purification buffer.

I read Merck's site and of course they claim it is impossible to get an active viral infection from Gardasil.

What is worrisome to me is the way Merck plays down the side effects on their website. It is clearly documented elsewhere that one possible side effect of this vaccine is Guillain-Barre syndrome. And Merck does not admit that on their website. In general, they go for non-medical vernacular that allows them ridiculous leeway in underplaying potential side effects.

There really ought to be governmental regulation of this sort of editing of ad copy to distort medical truth.
