› $4.85 Billion settlement in drug case
Women considering receiving the Gardasil vaccine for themselves or their daughters may encounter a lot of confusing, sometimes contradictory information and sweeping generalizations. Because January is Cervical Cancer Awareness month, more women and girls may be seeking information about human papillomavirus (HPV), Gardasil, and the more recently approved vaccine Cervarix, which makes it even more important that truth about the vaccine be known.
When asked if she believed the Gardasil vaccine presented more risks to girls and women than the possibility of cervical cancer, Dr. Diane Harper, the lead researcher in human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine development told journalist Marcia Yerman that Gardasil has little to no benefit for women who receive Pap screening.
Dr. Diane Harper, the lead researcher in human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine development, astonished her peers at the 4th International Public Conference on Vaccination last month when she spoke out against Merck’s Gardasil vaccination, rather than promote it as she was expected to do.
