(NaturalNews) For the last several years, HPV vaccines have been marketed to the public and mandated in compulsory injections for young girls in several states based on the idea that they prevent cervical cancer. Now, NaturalNews has obtained documents from the FDA and other sources (see below) which reveal that the FDA has been well aware for several years that Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) has no direct link to cervical cancer.

That's a very interesting analysis, especially on PubMed!

Just as an aside, I checked the US immigrations vaccination policy and as of 2009 the HPV vaccine is no longer mandated. A whole host of other ones are, but not that one.

Wow, can Mike Adams ever spin things to fit his agenda.

The most relevant bit from that link:

NaturalNews sought to verify the existence of the FDA news release referenced by this petition reclassification document and found that, indeed, the FDA news release exists. In fact, it's still posted on the FDA website athttp://www.fda.gov/bbs/topics/NEWS/...

In it, the FDA says, "The HPV DNA test is not intended to substitute for regular Pap screening. Nor is it intended to screen women under 30 who have normal Pap tests. Although the rate of HPV infection in this group is high,most infections are short-lived and not associated with cervical cancer." (Emphasis added.)

In other words, the FDA knew in 2003 that HPV infections are not associated with cervical cancer.

Furthermore, the FDA states, in the same press release, "Most women who become infected with HPV are able to eradicate the virus and suffer no apparent long-term consequences to their health."

In other words,HPV infections do not cause cervical cancer!Remember, the entire push for mandatory HPV vaccinations of young girls across the country has been the urgent call to "save" these young girls from cervical cancer. The vaccine push has been about "savings lives." But as these documents clearly reveal, HPV is no threat to the lives of young girls. In fact, as you will see below, HPV infections are naturally self-limiting!

Yes, his shocking revelation is that most HPV infections do not cause cervical cancer. Apparently this was news to him. I'm pretty sure that it is not news to anyone else. After all, don't we know that over half of all sexually active women have been infected with HPV at one point or another? And yet, the rates of cervical cancer are much, much lower than that, making it quite obvious that most infections don't result in cancer.

However, this is not at all the same as saying that there is no link between HPV and cervical cancer or that HPV never causes cervical cancer, as Addams is trying to spin it. Because while it is true that most cases of HPV infection do not result in cervical cancer, it is also true that virtually all cases of cervical cancer are the direct result of HPV infection.

What Adams is ignoring is that there are many different strains of HPV, and only a few of them cause cancer. Two strains (types 16 and 18) alone are responsible for 70% of cervical cancer cases. These are two of the strains Gardasil is intended to protect against.

Adams had another shocking revelations for us back on the first page of the link:

NaturalNews has also learned that HPV vaccines have been proven to be flatly worthless in clearing the HPV virus from women who have already been exposed to HPV (which includes most sexually active women), calling into question the scientific justification of mandatory "vaccinate everyone" policies.

Again, this is news to who?

Who has claimed that the vaccine can be used to treat women who have already been exposed? That it can't be is exactly why they give it to girls as young as ten - because they are trying to make sure they get the full series before they are sexually active. Also, there is no "mandatory 'vaccinate everyone'" policy with Gardasil. It is on the schedule for girls at an age when we'd certainly hope the vast majority of them had had no sexual activity yet, and they are starting to have it for boys too, and also younger adults because there is a high enough chance that they hadn't been exposed yet. The FDA does not recommend it to women over the age of 26 due to the locking the barn door after the horse is already gone factor.

I agree.....bad spin. Provaccine advocates never use spin (yeah right). This is why everything one reads must be disected, researched and taken with a grain of salt no matter who says it.
