Vaccination, it is an inoculation with a vaccine in order to protect against a particular disease.  But at what cost?  For so many a time we have seen commercialized on our television screens the infamous Gardasil advert.  It promises to be the vaccine that can be the cure for cervical cancer.  But is it? 

What do you know about Gardasil?  It also goes by the name Silgard, is a vaccine against certain types of human papillomavirus.  It is designed to prevent infection with HPV types 16, 18, 6, and 11.  HPV types 16 and 18 that currently cause about 70% of cervical cancer cases, and also cause some vulvar, vaginal, penile and anal caners.  HPV types 6 and 11 cause about 90% of genital warts cases.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections cause nearly all cases of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is the fifth leading cause of death from cancer in women world-wide, and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women in the majority of developing countries.

If you weren’t informed before now you are.  You have probably also heard that in clinical trials over 25,000 patients were treated of Gardasil, and within those numbers 1, 184 were pre-teen girls.  Barbara Fisher, a co-founder of NVIC (the National Vaccine Information Center) has said “that is a thin base upon which to make a vaccine mandatory”.  Parents across the nation started getting up with concern and stopped riding the bandwagon that most easy-minded people tend to, they got informed. 

On MSNBC there was a national poll taken in which it showed that 85,000 people think that a mandate on the HPV vaccine is not right.  Now that Gardasil is a wide-based commercially known vaccination parents are arguing that it could promote premarital sex.  Not to forget the off-set side effects of Gardasil- a month after 13 year old Jenny Tetlock received the vaccination she experienced signs degenerative muscle disease which have now left Tetlock paralyzed.  Her father Philip Tetlock says Gardasil is to blame. 

In the United Kingdom there have been widespread cases in which it leaked much more concern.  1,300 girls who received the injection of Gardasil experienced adverse reactions, the cases ranged from 20 cases of blurred vision, four cases of convulsions, one case of seizures and one epileptic fit. Five cases of partial paralysis were reported, including Bell’s palsy (face), Guillain-Barre syndrome (legs), hyopaesthesia (loss of sense of touch) and hemiparesis (severe weakening or paralysis of half the body). 

In Spain health authorities have withdrawn from doses of the vaccine after two girls were hospitalized after receiving the injections.  There was a closer look involved into the ingredient list of the vaccine and it was found that sodium borate was in it (a hazardous chemical in rat poison).  

Even though Gardasil may prevent certain kinds of HPV some mothers have begun to question and fear that the vaccine might make their daughters infertile.  This leaves one questioning why have the pharmaceutical giants decided to experiment on the female youth of entire generation?
