האם תוכל, בבקשה, לרשום בקצרה בעברית מה הבעיות שהתגלו, שהתעוררו, למען אלו שלא כל כך הבינו ?

הבעיות העיקריות בחיסון כנגד סרטן צוואר הרחם: 1. יעילות נמוכה 2. חלק מזני הוירוס HPV הם יציבים לחיסון 3. אצל חלק מהנשים עם סרטן צוואר הרחם, הגידול לא נגרם מוירוס. 4. החיסון צריך להינתן רק לנשים צעירות, בגיל 11 או 12 לפני התחלת קיום יחסי מין. מבחינתי, הבעיה העיקרית היא שהניסויים הם בטווח של שנים ספורות. צריך לעשות ניסויים של 20-30 שנה ורק אז ניתן יהיה להיות בטוחים לגבי היעילות ולגבי תופעות לוואי מאוחרות. ד"ר יוסף ברנר

Merck's vaccine tied to 3 deaths Company lobbied states for shots to be required -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted: May 24, 2007 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- © 2007 WorldNetDaily.com At least three deaths AND more than 1,600 adverse reactions including spontaneous abortion AND paralysis have been connected to Merck & Co.'s new vaccine for the human papillomavirus, a treatment the company has lobbied state lawmakers to make mandatory for young girls across the nation. The report comes from Judicial Watch, the Washington-based public interest group that investigates AND prosecutes government corruption. "The FDA adverse event reports on the HPV vaccine read like a catalog of horrors," said Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch president. "Any state OR local government now beset by Merck's lobbying campaigns to mandate this HPV vaccine for young girls ought to take a look at these adverse health reports. It looks as if an unproven vaccine with dangerous side effects is being pushed as a miracle drug." One report, No. 275438-1, describes the reaction as coronary artery thrombosis, sudden cardiac death. "Given Gardasil vaccine dose #1 3/12/07. Collapsed AND died on 3/26/07… Echocardiogram revealed very enlarged right ventricle, small left ventricle as well as large blood clots within both the right atrium & right ventricle." A second report noted that the woman was vaccinated AND "died of a blood clot 8 hours after getting the Gardasil vaccine." (WND earlier reported how the company's campaign to promote its $400-per person vaccine was sweeping the nation. It was being facilitated by donations from Merck to Women in Government, whose members are women state lawmakers across the country, who in turn often were introducing legislation that would require young girls to be given the brand new vaccine in order to be enrolled in school. Judicial Watch said documents it obtained from the U.S. Food AND Drug Administration under the provisions of the Freedom of Information provided information on 1,637 reports of adverse reactions. The reports of the deaths cited myocarditis, coronary artery thrombosis AND pulmonary embolism as causes for the deaths. Besides the only hours-long lapse between vaccination AND death, two other reports, on girls 12 AND 19, reported deaths relating to heart problems and/or blood clotting, the Judicial Watch analysis said. Jill Farrell, a spokeswoman with Judicial Watch, said its own tabulation uncovered 371 serious reactions among the 1,637 total reported. She said JW found more cases of serious situations than did the official government report, because of the way reactions were classified. "Stopped breathing later revived. … 13-year-old developed pain, sought physical therapy, later could not tolerate therapy due to pain. … Hives, sent home, found unresponsive by mother, who called 911, revived at ER…" Farrell noted. "You decide. If these were your children, would you consider these non-serious?" Of the 42 women who got the vaccine while pregnant, 18 experienced side effects ranging from spontaneous abortion to fetal abnormities, the report said. "Side effects published by Merck & Co. warn the public about potential pain, fever, nausea, dizziness AND itching after receiving the vaccine. Indeed, 77 percent of the adverse reactions reported are typical side effects to vaccinations. But other more serious side effects reported include paralysis, Bells Palsy, Guillain-Barre syndrome (a disorder in which the body's immune system attacks part of the peripheral nervous system), AND seizures," Judicial Watch said. Merck declined an opportunity to respond to WND requests for comment on the report. WND also reported earlier a researcher who worked on a vaccine for HPV is warning it hasn't been tested on young girls, is "silly" for states to mandate, AND in a worst-case scenario even could increase cervical cancer rates. Researcher Diane M. Harper said giving such a vaccine to 11-year-olds "is a great big public health experiment." The target of the vaccine is cervical cancer, since studies show that those who have HPV have a higher chance of later developing cervical cancer. However, opponents note that such cancers develop most often in older women, while the plan is to require girls as young as 11 OR 12 years old to be inoculated. They cite the lack of evidence that the vaccine would have an impact later in life. They also question the imposition of a vaccine against a condition that is spread only by sexual contact. Merck's vaccine was approved last year by the Food AND Drug Administration, but a doctor at the Centers for Disease Control's advisory committee on immunizations has reported that while the vaccine may be helpful, it should not be mandatory
