Gardasil-What Do You Think Of It??

Question

I want to hear your opinion about this new vaccine. Even if you are for or against it, I want to hear it!

If you're not sure what Gardasil is, it's a new vaccine for girls/women between ages 9 and 26. This vaccine helps prevent against ONLY four types of HPV. Two that cause cervical cancer and two that cause genital warts. Only thing is, is that there are a number of different kinds of HPV... There are both pros and cons to this vaccine.

Let me hear your opinions!

Answer 1

we're finding out about some of the ingredients. Some of the ingredients have previously been deemed UNSAFE by the FDA but are now being put in them. Why the change of heart folks? $$

One ingredient has been proven to cause infertility. "Hey honey, we're going to inject you with this chemical. It may prevent you from getting HPV (while there are safer alternatives) but you might not ever be able to have children. It's the sensible choice sweetheart".

Here are some other ingredients:

-Mercury (research links to Autism)
-Aluminum (research links to Alzheimer's)
-Formaldehyde (Suspected cancer agent; toxic to liver and nerve)
-Antifreeze (great for the car; bad on the liver. Also suspected cancer agent)

The answer is in prevention - that's RIGHT FOLKS! HPV vaccine is aimed at prevention and I can't agree with them more. So how about mothers and fathers stepping out of their comfort zones and preaching safe sex. I hope none of you ever have to say, "Dealing with the discomfort about talking to my daughter about safe sex would have been better than seeing her die".

Answer: weight the risks and benefits. Know that drugs are NOT PROVEN until they're tried on research subjects (hem hem ... that's our 11 year old daughters by the way!)

America - you are starting to make me worry. We are overwhelmed by the "Quick Fix" and the "Easy Way Out". Instead of diet and exercize, we cut out our gallbladder - why the heck was that gallbladder put in anyway? Instead of avoiding high fructose corn syrup and other killer sugars, we'll deal with the diabetes and the medications.

With all these advancements in technology, science, and research, why are we still the 77th most unhealthy country in the world? Why is France and Canada leaps and bounds healthier than we are? Let me spell it out for you:
"P H A R M A C E U T I C A L - - C O M P A N I E S"

(dear friends, if I wind up dead tonight unexplained, I was offed by a pharmaceutical bigwig lol)

Answer 2

Um, no, there are no cons to this vaccine. It protects you from certain diseases just like any other vaccine. That is a good thing, unless you like HPV. There are some other strains but Gardasil protects against the most common ones, and would prevent 90% of warts and 70% of cervical cancer. That's good, period.

Answer 3

This vaccine hasn't been proven to prevent cervical cancer at all, and has all kinds of nasty crap in it.

In the study, nobody got cervical cancer - not the group that got the placebo, not the group that got gardasil. This makes it 0% effective at preventing cervical cancer.

Additionally, it's chock full of aluminum, which has been linked to neurological issues (alzheimers) and arthritis, plus other nasty chemicals that aren't fit for human consumption.

Answer 4

They nonetheless don't be attentive to all the edge outcomes of Gardasil. It become pushed by using thank you to speedy, and now there have been many comments of intense issues. a minimum of 10 women persons have died from it. i might in no way get it nor might I enable my daughters to get it. It has no longer been shown efficient in combating cervical maximum cancers, and in actuality has been appropriate to different forms of maximum cancers. you won't be "one much less".

Answer 5

it is a great discovery that is unfortunately not widely available. neither my doctor nor planned parenthood has it. my insurance covers it, so that wouldn't be a problem, and as soon as my doc or pp gets it i'm getting the vaccine. hpv is one of the most common stds- 80% of women have it or have had it by age 50. 80%!!! we should all be getting this vaccine.

Answer 6

Here's a novel idea! It will save you $360.00, plus money spent for co-pay into the doctor's office and money to put gas in your car, time, not to mention, you can completely avoid potentially dangerous side effects, and who knows, 20 years down the road what this immunization is going do to you (cancer, infertility, birth defects)... just don't have SEX!!! Guess what?! If you're a virgin and you marry a virgin you're never going to have an STD! If you're that horny that you need sex there are plenty of fun little toys you can buy online that don't carry diseases. Then, when you're done, you put your toy away in the drawer and you don't have to worry about the psychological crap that goes along with your sexual encounters when the guy gets up and walks out on you and never calls you again.

Answer 7

I'm with the first person, although it only protects against 4 types, at least they found something to help us lessen our chances, even if it is only four. I think it is great, even though you need three series of the shot, but i say get it, at least you'll be protected from someof the causes!

Answer 8

i think all men and women should get it.
