Informed consent is a human right. Having a full understanding of the benefits, and the risks of a medical procedure are paramount to making a conscious healthcare decision. Children are not able to give informed consent, they are not mature enough. When it comes to medical procedures, you cannot keep parents in the dark.
Currently the Connecticut General Assembly is considering SB 858, which would permit prophylactic treatment of minors for sexually transmitted diseases without the consent or knowledge of a parent or guardian. Prophylactic means preventative. The preventative treatment is the HPV vaccine given to children 9 years and up. Both boys and girls without informed consent. There is also a bill from public health 7199, to mandate HPV vaccine to all children entering 9th grade.
According to the Connecticut State Budget, “funding of $9,617,802 in FY 18 and $9,517,802 in FY 19 to make the HPV vaccine universally available to privately insured children. Included in the FY 18 funding total is $100,000 to support a related “educational campaign.” That’s over nineteen million dollars allocated toward a very controversial vaccine. This for children who have health insurance, which already pays for their vaccinations. There are two kinds of HPV vaccines on the market today, Gardasil by Merck, and Cervarix by GlaxoSmithKline. In Connecticut Gardasil is the common vaccine for HPV.
The Gardasil vaccine was fast tracked by the FDA and approved in June of 2006, after a six month priority review process. Most vaccines take at least 10 months to review. HPV was fast tracked because the manufacturers claimed their vaccine prevented cancer. Drugs for cancer treatment and prevention can be fast tracked. However, there is no clinical data to support this.
Vaccines are a medical procedure that come with clear risk. When children are given the HPV vaccine they are told to wait for 15 minutes incase of syncope. According to American Family Physicians, a peer review journal, “Syncope is an abrupt and transient loss of consciousness caused by cerebral hypoperfusion. Syncope is classified as neurally mediated, cardiac, and orthostatic hypotension.” However, HPV is the most common sexually transmitted disease and typically clears up on its own in those infected without incident. Not all infections with HPV lead to cancer. Death from cervical cancer in the United States is very low thanks to early detection from pap smears. Ironically, according to Biologics Blood Vaccines, “Gardasil has not been evaluated for the potential to cause carcinogenicity or genotoxicity.”
The Gardasil vaccine is made with HPV virus, yeast cells, amino acids and amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate, AAHS. AAHS, is a proprietary adjuvant not approved by the FDA, “When evaluating a vaccine for safety and efficacy, the FDA considers adjuvants as a component of the vaccine; they are not licensed separately.” However, the FDA did license Glaxo Smith Cline Cervarix adjuvant, AsO4, “In the United States, the only adjuvants currently licensed by the FDA to be part of vaccines are aluminum salts and arsenate (AsO4), an adjuvant that contains aluminum hydroxide and monophosphoryl lipid.”
The question that remains is why did the FDA separately license one adjuvant versus the other? Ironically, Merck does not have to share anything about their AAHS adjuvant because they own the patent. They also enjoy indemnity from tort law via the Vaccine Injury Act of 1986, which grants vaccine manufacturers immunity from lawsuits due to injury or death from their vaccine products in the United States. It is alarming that any state would mandate vaccines while consumers are left in the dark and forced to take a risk.
Many experts question both the safety and efficacy of the HPV vaccine. Leading aluminum researcher, Professor Chris Exley, who has studied aluminum for over 30 years writes,“Unfortunately Merck, the manufacturer of this adjuvant, has not made it available for any independent analyses, never mind safety testing.” Adjuvants work by stimulating the immune system to react. Aluminum is a neurotoxin that is used to aggravate a response in the body. When aluminum is injected into the bloodstream it builds up over time and can travel to the brain. Exley continues, “It is undeniable that a small proportion of individuals receiving vaccines which include aluminum adjuvants experience what have been called severe adverse events and such ‘events’ include brain encephalopathies. These severe adverse events are almost certainly caused by aluminum adjuvants.”
Children’s Health Defense, founded by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., states this about the AAHS adjuvant, “Researchers are particularly concerned with Merck’s highly immunogenic adjuvant, Amorphous Aluminum Hydroxyphosphate Sulphate (AAHS). Gardasil and Recombivax are the only vaccines licensed to contain AAHS. Some scientists believe it may contribute to serious autoimmune conditions referred to as Autoimmune/Inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants or ASIA.”
Specialist in HPV and a developer of Gardasil, Dr. Diane Harper, appeared on CBS in 2008 and had this to say,“It is unacceptable to mandate any vaccine without first testing it for effectiveness, safety, and long-term side effects. The Gardasil vaccine may be an important step in preventing cervical cancer, but it is a step that may cause other harm.” This was eleven years ago, and since then thousands of children across the United States and abroad have reported adverse reactions to Gardasil.
In June of 2014 a claim was filed by Attorney Don Manuel Sáez Ochoa of Spain’s high court, Health Impact News reports, “The complaint states that Merck Laboratories failed to use an inert placebo during clinical trials, thereby manipulating data and marketing Gardasil under false pretences. On July 30, the Judge decided to open criminal proceedings and investigation of the facts. The first criminal case in Spain regarding Gardasil injuries and potential criminal liability.” France is also pursing litigation. Prevent Disease writes,“The parents of the five families contend that vaccines caused their children’s disabilities have joined forces to take Glaxo Smith Kline, Pfizer and Sanofi to court in hopes that the courts will acknowledge the side effects of vaccines and award compensation to their disabled children.”
Japan took the HPV vaccine off the recommended schedule just two month after it had added it due to adverse reactions across the country. To paraphrase investigative journalist Jeffery Jaxen, ‘Sin Hang Lee (former Associate Professor at Yale University and current Director of the Milford Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory) appeared before the Japanese government’s Advisory Council. Dr. Lee reported that HPV DNA fragments bound to the AAHS adjuvant were found in 16 unopened vials of Gardasil, sent to Milford Medical Laboratory from nine countries. Fragments were also found in postmortem blood and spleen samples from the autopsy of an 18-year-old New Zealand girl who died after Gardasil vaccination.’ The adjuvant combined with the DNA fragments can cause illness and death.
Dr. Bernard Dalbergue, former pharmaceutical industry physician for Merck, was quoted in 2014 while doing an interview for a French health magazine, “I predict that Gardasil will become the greatest medical scandal of all time,” The Gardasil vaccine is the most expensive vaccine on the market. Merck, makers of the failed drug Vioxx, that injured thousands of people and was taken off the market due to high risk of heart attack and death, have paid out billions of dollars in lawsuits. Tort law for pharmaceutical drugs is applicable, but not for vaccines. Merck was seriously injured financially, and is still in litigation over Vioxx. Vioxx like Gardasil, was fast tracked by the FDA in 1999 and pulled from the market in 2002.
Yet the FDA says the DNA fragments that Dr. Lee was concerned about are not a problem. The fragments are part of the vaccine, “According to the FDA on HPV and DNA fragments, “Because the vaccine does not contain a viral DNA strand from HPV, it should not cause HPV or cancer. Instead, it ought to tigger an antibody reaction to guard the host from being infected by the virus.” Yet, Italian advocacy group, Corvelva found many contaminations in the HPV vaccine. One shocking discovery, “Human and Mouse DNA: their origin is not known. It may be that human DNA could instead be a cross-contamination from other cell lines used for the production of vaccine. These DNA could interact with the adjuvant aluminum and cause inflammatory and autoimmune reactions.”
With all of this evidence and science, it appears that the CDC and the FDA, have been corrupted. The heads of the CDC and FDA are appointed, not elected. The doors revolve from industry to government and vice versa. Two examples illustrate this well. Dr. Julie Gerberding was the, director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention from July 2002 thru January 2009. Meanwhile, in February of 2008, Gerberding had been named president of Merck’s vaccine division. The CDC also holds patents in vaccines and benefits financially from them. Attorney Robert F. Kennedy Jr clarified this relationship, “ (the) CDC is a subsidiary of the pharmaceutical industry. The agency owns more than 20 vaccine patents and purchases and sells $4.1 billion in vaccines annually” In a second example, Michael R. Taylor had a long career in government and also served as vice president for public policy for Monsanto. In 2009, Taylor was the FDA commissioner. Later he served in a newly created position as Deputy Commissioner for Foods util 2016.
Even more egregious is William Thompson, a CDC researcher blew the whistle in 2014 on a coverup linking MMR to autism. Eco Watch writes, “Thomas Frieden, the director of the Center for Disease Control (CDC), has blocked CDC whistleblower, Dr. William Thompson, from testifying on scientific fraud and destruction of evidence by senior CDC officials in critical vaccine safety studies regarding the causative relationship between childhood vaccines and autism.” Invariably, this is the study they use to say vaccines do not cause autism.
In 2019 Dr. Zimmerman, the lead witness for the government in vaccine court in 2007, said he was taken out of context when he said vaccines do not cause autism. He meant vaccines did not cause autism in the particular case he was called as a witness for. Investigative journalist. Sheryl Atkinson covered the story on Full Measure and has made his affidavit available for the public. Dr. Zimmerman, “More specifically, I explained that in a subset of children with an underlying mitochondrial dysfunction, vaccine induced fever and immune stimulation that exceeded metabolic energy reserves could, and in at least one of my patients, did cause regressive encephalopathy with features of autism spectrum disorder.”
VAERS The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System was put in place to monitor problems with vaccinations after the 1986 Vaccine Injury Act. The system only captures between 1 and 10 % of all vaccine injuries. Doctors, nurses, caretakers, and parents can file reports with VAERS. As of December 2018, According to SaneVax.org 60,714 injuries from HPV vaccines have been reported to VAERS, 458 deaths,15,401 ER visits, and 6,047 extended hospital stays. VAERS is a public data base that anyone can search.
There is much that can go wrong with the HPV vaccine. Without informed consent giving any vaccination is a violation of human rights. Why has the state of Connecticut purchased the HPV vaccine for so many years? There are now two bills for HPV vaccine mandates before the state legislator, SB 858, and PH 7199. Another vaccine bill, SB 94, intends to reduce the age from 18 to 12 to allow pharmacists to administer vaccines. The total budget to purchase vaccines in Connecticut is ninety one million dollars. Yet we can’t pay back the money the state borrowed from teacher’s pensions.
When it comes to vaccines, who is writing the laws? According to a study in American Journal of Public Health on HPV and state vaccination policies, “Respondents in every state commented on how effectively Merck prepared the political environment for the introduction of school-entry mandates and other legislation. The company carried out this objective through marketing campaigns to consumers and physicians and direct outreach to political interest groups.”
Not all vaccines work for all people, medical care is not a one size fits all. Some people can be severely injured by them. Where there is risk there must always be choice. “The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.” The ten points of The Nuremberg Code.
