Vaccine Safety Group Releases GARDASIL Reaction Report
New Page 4
In addition to the four cases of death from blood clots, there was also one reported
death due to myocarditis, which is an inflammation of the heart, as well as one death
from arrhythmia and one death from meningitis. Both the arrhythmia and meningitis
cases occurred months after the patients received the Gardasil vaccine; the myocarditis
death occurred six days after vaccination but was a pre-existing condition. Even
excluding these deaths though, there are still fourteen cases that occurred within three
weeks of receiving the vaccine. One was from anaphylactic shock:
An 11-year-old female was vaccinated “within the
past month” in approximately May 2007 with a first
dose of Gardasil. Subsequently, 3 days after
vaccination the patient presented to an ER . . . the
physician from the hospital said that “the death was
due to an
anaphylactic reaction to Gardasil.”
VAERS ID: 280163-1 (D)
The remaining deaths reported to VAERS all have unknown causes; however, all but one
occurred within three weeks of receiving Gardasil, and six occurred within three days.
Below are additional excerpts from deaths with no apparent cause reported to VAERS:
A 18-year-old female patient was vaccinated with the first
dose of Gardasil . . . In the evening of the same day she was
found unconscious (or liveless) [sic] by the mother.
Resuscitation was performed by the emergency doctor but
was unsuccessful, i.e. the patient finally died . . . The cause
of death of this patient remains totally unclear.
VAERS ID: 300741-1 (D).

A 19-year-old female with no previous medical history
reported, who on 19-Sep-2007 was vaccinated with the 1st
dose of Gardasil . . . On the morning of 12-Oct-2007, the
patient was found dead in her bed . . . Contraception was
stopped 3 months before vaccination. No reason for the
death was detected in autopsy.

Gardasil . . . An autopsy was performed which ruled out
suicide and anything suspicious. The cause of death is
currently unknown.
VAERS ID: 310262-1 (D) 49
Perhaps all these deaths are simply coincidence, but given the unknowns about Gardasil
and its overall safety, it is far too important an issue to simply ignore.
There are countless websites I could have listed, but just pulled a couple and a few excerpts a paper by the CDC. I also found this and thought it to be interesting:
Merck’s last wonder drug, Vioxx, was pulled from the market in 2002, after an
estimated 88,000 to 140,000 adverse reactions were attributed to it. Vioxx, like Gardasil,
was fast-tracked by the FDA in 1999, without a full safety testing and analysis period
taking place. It was an anti-inflammatory drug designed to relieve people suffering from
arthritis, menstrual cramps, and acute pain. Merck voluntarily pulled Vioxx from the
market after a safety trial was stopped because, “there was an increased risk for serious
cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes.”50 Vioxx was pulled after five
years on the market and after contributing to 27,785 heart attacks and sudden cardiac
deaths, in addition to other events, as estimated by the FDA.51 Analysts estimate that the
Vioxx recall decreased Merck’s stock value drastically, and could cost Merck anywhere
from $3 to $20 billion. Less than two years after Merck suffered this severe blow, the
company introduced Gardasil, the most expensive vaccine on the market, and it was
approved by the FDA.
I could go on and on and I'm sure you could pull five hundred websites saying it's safe.That was the reason for the tit for tat comment. I don't have to justify my feelings on this to you, just as you don't for me. You aren't going to change my mind, and honestly I'm not trying to change yours.You are obviously a grown woman, however, what I do think is important is that parents look at BOTH points of view and decide for themselves, not just take their doctor's word that this vaccine is safe. I will again point out that everyone thought vioxx was safe and look how many people had to have side effects / or die before the truth was found out about that drug. And as for PARENTS not giving the vaccine when their kids are sick, I have been at the doctor's office and been told "oh it's just a cold, they can get the vaccine". Ummm NOPE! But again, most parents believe that their doctors know what is best for their children.
