Can The HPV Vaccine Actually Cause Cancer?

Guo and his colleagues analyzed information from nearly 600 women ages 20 to 26, including 80 women who had received the original Gardasil HPV vaccine, which protects against four HPV types -- 6, 11, 16 and 18. There are many types of HPV, and some can lead to cervical cancer if the body does not clear the infection after many years. HPV types 16 and 18 cause the majority of cervical cancers.

Women in the study who received the Gardasil vaccine were, indeed, less likely to be infected with the four strains of the virus included the vaccine: About 11 percent of vaccinated women were infected with HPV 6, 11, 16 or 18, compared with nearly 20 percent of unvaccinated women.

However, the women who received the vaccine were more likely to be infected with other high-risk HPV strains not included in the vaccine. About 61 percent of the women who received the vaccine were infected with another type of high-risk HPV, compared with 40 percent of women who did not receive the vaccine. (HPV strains are considered "high risk" if they can cause cellular changes that can eventually lead to cancer.)

The new findings suggest that women previously vaccinated against HPV may benefit from a new HPV vaccine, called Gardasil 9, which protects against the original four strains plus five more strains (31, 33, 45, 52 and 58) of HPV that cause about 20 percent of cervical cancers, the researchers said. Gardasil 9 was approved in December 2014 for women ages 9 to 26.

NOT TESTED FOR CARCINOGENICITY Information in the package insert states that the vaccine has not been tested for carcinogenicity. (2) Why has this not been done? Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence! There appears to be no official requirement for vaccines to be tested for carcinogenicity and no incentive for manufacturers to do so. Many experts consider that vaccines are conducive towards the dramatic worldwide increase in cancer cases.

What effect will the vaccine have on the other cancer-causing strains of HPV? Nature never leaves a void, so if HPV-16 and HPV-18 are suppressed by an effective vaccine, other strains of the virus will take their place. The question is, will these strains cause cervical cancer?

vactruth.com...

Women who get the vaccine are more likely to be infected with other high-risk HPV strains that can cause cancer than women who do not get the vaccine. Gardasil 9 vaccine protects against HPV 6,11,16,18,31,33 45,52 and 58. We need to remember that there are more than 80 HPV types, and some of them can still be associated with risk of cervical malignant disease. Also Gardasil 9 contains an exceptionally high level of aluminum, a known neurotoxin and will eat away at nerves. The package insert reports a wide range of adverse reactions, ranging from pain at the injection site to death. Is it worth the risk?

HPV vaccine hoax exposed

a reply to: gmoneystunt

I refused to get this done to my daughter and now that she is 18 she can make her own decision. She has thanked me over and over for not subjecting her to this poison. Getting a new vaccine is not a smart move. I don't mind things like Polio or Tetanus that have a track record and have a much more devastating outcome.

There's a family history of cervical cancer. My daughter took the vaccination when it was offered. So far ... so good.

a reply to: gmoneystunt

NO, it cannot give cancer. This is from the STUDY in your OP:

there is some concern about its effectiveness when administered to young adult women due to the risk of PRIOR HPV infections before vaccination

Prior = BEFORE vaccination.

Again, from the study:

After controlling for past sexual behaviors, vaccinated women had a LOWER risk of testing positive for the 4 types included in the HPV vaccine.

Lower risk = less than those not vaccinated.

To summarise: the HPV protects against cancer and not the other way round.
And it DOES NOT cause cancer. I can link hundreds of recent studies that prove just that.

NO it cannot.

I am fed up with amateurs giving out information like this on ATS.

How can you be so sure?

However, the women who received the vaccine were more likely to be infected with other high-risk HPV strains not included in the vaccine.

The vaccine only works for the types of HPV strains is was designed for. It increased the risk of other types of HPV strains. How can you say that not even the ingredients in the vaccine can cause cancer?

Meh your fed up of something i am fed up of people giving out potentially dangerous health care advice.

Honesty why does ATS not have a disclaimer at the top of these threads in big bold letters stating:

Maybe because I did not give out any advice of any kind!

As long as it works both ways.

Surely you are not qualified to vouch for the efficacy of any particular medical treatment so we are left with people making their own decisions.

As it should be.

Nowhere in the study it says the vaccine increased the risk of other strains. In fact, it is physiological impossible (if you understand the pathophysiology of immunisation). This is straight from the study (with the correct wording, journalist have the tendency of changing them to sensationalize and sell):

However, vaccinated women had a higher prevalence of nonvaccine high-risk types than unvaccinated women

Nowhere it says the vaccine increased the risk of contracting other strains. Those women probably have more prevalence because they have more unprotected sex. The conclusion of the study was in favour of the vaccine:

Conclusion: HPV vaccination was effective for the protection against all four vaccine types in young adult women. Vaccinated women had a higher prevalence of nonvaccine high-risk types, which suggests that they may benefit from vaccines that cover additional types of HPV.

I don't mind discussing every ingredient in the vaccine if you wish so.

As long as vaccines aren't forced on anyone I think they are great. I think many vaccines are are a good idea, just not this one.

I also do not vouch for anything either. I simply asked if it can cause cancer then showed some risks. Do I need to be qualified to question bulletin boards and doctors? I have no problem with people making their own decisions. I prefer it that way. You are not qualified to vouch that the vaccination does not cause cancer. So actually there should be a disclaimer on your reply.

I actually agree that nobody should be forced to be vaccinated, in the UK it is not compulsory and we also give parents the vaccines leaflets to take home to read, so that they can make an informed choice.

But I disagree with your last sentence: the HPV vaccine has been proven to be safe and effective.

a reply to: gmoneystunt

The vaccine has been proven time and time again to be safe.

It prevents Cancer. FACT.

Yeah it does and accounts for the number of recent sexual partners.

About 61 percent of the women who received the vaccine were infected with another type of high-risk HPV, compared with 40 percent of women who did not receive the vaccine.

www.cbsnews.com...

However, vaccinated women had a higher prevalence of nonvaccine high-risk types than unvaccinated women (61.5% vs 39.7%, prevalence ratio 1.55, 95% CI 1.22-1.98). After adjusting for the number of recent sexual partners, the difference in prevalence of high-risk nonvaccine types was reduced, but remained significant.

The HPV virus causes cancer.

The vaccine prevents cancer.


This is all very solidly proven science. Opinion pieces from anti-vacc organisations are not science I'm afraid. They're scaremongering at best, and murder at worst.

If vaccines are so safe, then why does this Gardasil insert sheet admit that the vaccine causes “seizure-like activity, headache, fever, nausea and dizziness” and can even cause those injected with the vaccine to lose consciousness and fall, resulting in injury?

If vaccines are totally safe, then why do vaccine insert sheets disclose a long list of frightening and bizarre side effects associated with their vaccines?

Anti-vacc organizations are murders? Wow, you blew that out of proportion just a little bit.

a reply to: gmoneystunt

Every medication be it the HPV Vaccine or Paracetamol has some risks, some side effects and some hazards.

In a ideal world we would not have to take any medications but the reality is that without the wonders of medical science our life expectancy would be reduced.

Scaremongering with the risks like this is irresponsible if you are also not willing to show data showing how common these effects are and how the compare with the proven benefits .

You will struggle to find a single medication that does not have a whole huge list of side effects, if we were to freak out every time we saw these side effects then we wouldn't take a single medication. EVER.

If you are worried about this then speak to a doctor of pharmacist before taking the medication. Don't go around cherry picking sources and scaremongering.
