2 ALS Cases May Be Linked to Gardasil Vaccine 
  [link] ALS Cases May Be Linked to Gardasil VaccineResearchers Believe Cervical Cancer Vaccine Could Be Linked to Cases of LouGehrig's DiseaseBy Charlene LainoWebMD Health NewsReviewed by Louise Chang, MDOct. 16, 2009 (Baltimore) -- Researchers believe that there may be a linkbetween a vaccine against cervical cancer and a rapidly progressive, fataldisease in two young women.Both the timing of the symptoms and autopsy results "suggest a link between"the Gardasil vaccine and the fatal cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, says Catherine Lomen-Hoerth, MD,director of the ALS Center at University of California San Francisco MedicalCenter.With only two confirmed cases, "we don't know for sure if it's coincidenceor if they're connected [to the vaccine]," she tells WebMD. "We hope that byraising awareness, we will become aware of any other cases."Pam Eisele, a spokeswoman for Merck & Co., which makes the vaccine, says thecompany cannot comment specifically on the cases as it has not seen thedata."However, after carefully reviewing all the information available to usabout reported adverse events, including reports of deaths, Merck does notbelieve these events have been caused by Gardasil," she says.The vaccine has been given to more than 7 million girls and young womennationwide.Gardasil and ALS: Jenny's StoryThe tragic story of one of the girls, Jenny Tetlock, is chronicled on "Jenny's Journey," a web site created by her parents to publicize her case and getothers with similar symptoms to come forward.[link] first sign that something was wrong was when 14-year-old Jenny trippedon a hurdle that others in her class cleared easily, according to the website. That was just months after her third and final booster Gardasil shot,Lomen-Hoerth says.The disease rapidly progressed; both her legs, and then her arms becameweak, Lomen-Hoerth continues. Jenny began to limp and had trouble grippingobjects. She felt pins and needles in her feet, and her muscles atrophied,she tells WebMD.Within a year, Jenny was paralyzed, a quadriplegic breathing only with thehelp of life support. She died shortly afterward, Lomen-Hoerth says.Throughout the course of her illness, Jenny's mind was as sharp as ever, sheadds.The other patient, a 20-year-old, developed similar symptoms within fourmonths of her first Gardasil shot, Lomen-Hoerth says. The disease followed asimilar course, and the girl died 28 months later.Rapidly Progressive CourseIn addition to the short time span between vaccination and the onset ofsymptoms, several other factors made the researchers suspect a link toGardasil vaccination, Lomen-Hoerth says.In both young women, the disease progressed more quickly than typical foryoung ALS patients, she says.Additionally, at autopsy, "we were surprised that the spinal cord was soinflammatory. That is very different from what we normally see in ALS," shesays.The pathology features "all support a temporal association between [theillness] and vaccination," Lomen-Hoerth says.She spoke at the annual meeting of the American Neurological Association.Because it is extremely rare, affecting just one in 2-3 million youngpeople, there are very few studies of juvenile ALS, Lomen-Hoerth says.Her team plans further study comparing the symptoms and pathologicalfeatures of young adults with ALS who got the Gardasil vaccine to those whodidn't get the shots. "If the features are identical, then we'll know [thevaccine] is not the cause," Lomen-Hoerth says.In the meantime, she and colleagues have met with scientists from the FDAand CDC to scour their adverse-event database, called the Vaccine AdverseEvent Reporting System (VAERS), for any other reports linking ALS toGardasil or other vaccinations. "So far, we haven't found any," she says.Merck is also continuing to work with the CDC and FDA to monitor any adverseevents that may have been caused by the vaccine, according to Eisele.Yadollah Harati, MD, a neurologist at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston,says the findings raise a red flag.The fact that "the postmortem studies show distinct immunological featuresdifferent from what is typical of ALS" suggest an association betweenvaccination and ALS, he says."I will be asking any of my young patients with ALS whether they receivedthe Gardasil vaccine," he tells WebMD. "I have one 20-year old ALS patient,and we didn't think to ask that."SOURCES134th Annual Meeting of the American Neurological Association, Baltimore,Oct. 11-14, 2009.Catherine Lomen-Hoerth, MD, director, ALS Center, University of CaliforniaSan Francisco Medical Center.Pam Eisele, Merck & Co.Yadollah Harati, MD, department of neurology, Baylor College of Medicine,Houston.Jenny's Journey blog.© 2009 WebMD, LLC.

Pandemix swine flu vax 
  [link] contains squalene which is behind gulf war syndrome mercury and tween 80 both linked to infertility recommended for pregnant women! Pregnant Women In Britain Given Untested Swine Flu Vaccine Against WHO Advice Pregnant women in Britain are to get a form of swine flu vaccine that is not recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO). The vaccine Pandemrix, which makes up the bulk of NHS supply, contains a chemical called an adjuvant that has never been tested on mums-to-be. But the Department of Health's Director of Immunisations Professor David Salisbury said that even though the NHS has stocks of an alternative vaccine called Celvapan, it will not be prioritised for pregnant women. University College London vaccine expert Dr Tarit Mukhopadhyay said: "We don't know what could go wrong." Natalie Lisbona, who is 30 weeks pregnant, said: "There are no tests on pregnant women, so what is it going to do to the foetus?"... more »
