Like that vaccine they guilt parents in to give their kids for HPV on those commercials.

That is a particularly bad vaccine as it mathematically and practically can’t actually do what it is supposed top do. Firstly it is a vaccine against a virus that naturally lives in most of us. If it becomes out of control in a very small number of people it can cause cancer. That is true of many virus’ that live in our bodies. They are there all the time. We have always had virus’ living within us.

The stupid idea of the HPV is that they can kill it in every American. They can’t. First there is the issue that you would have to vaccinate everyone. Foreigners will not get the vaccine of course. Then there are the boosters that nobody will want. The idea is that we only have sex in our 20s with other well healed Americas. You can’t see the virus. And only know its there if you are one of the unlucky .01% who develop cancer in your 50s or 60s.

So you can’t really tell if it works. Which it won’t. But they keep giving the shots anyway. People make a lot of money off it. Cervical cancer rates are the same. But what they don’t show you is all the people who have adverse reactions. And there are lots of them. If you want to trade ASIA with cervical cancer go ahead. But there are more people who get a life long autoimmune disease from HPV than there are people who avoid cervical cancer.
